Chapter 58 Love Moon 058 "That's OK..."
In the brightly lit bathroom, the only sound was the dripping of water on the jade-white bathtub wall. Gradually, something in the sound accelerated, disrupting the original rhythm and making people blush.
An arm was draped limply on the tile, the skin color was even whiter than the white tile, but the white was stained with pink, and the marks on the body looked more like a paper scroll dotted with colors, beautiful and full of great attraction.
After being carried and moved to a different position, He Chuyue no longer had the strength to stand. Her legs were shaking so badly that she had to rely on Xiao Zhiyan to support herself.
"Four times."
"What?"
After rinsing her clean, Xiao Zhiyan turned off the water and didn't hear clearly.
"without......"
She closed her eyes, and the corners of her lips curled up when she thought of how Xiao Zhiyan stopped several times when she heard him stop.
After being carried out of the bathtub, He Chuyue let him wrap the bath towel around her body and dry her off...either because the process was too long or because she was too sleepy, she didn't even know when she finally returned to bed.
When she woke up the next day, her whole body ached, yet she felt inexplicably comfortable. She lay on the newly changed bed sheets and stared at the ceiling for a long while before coming to her senses.
As expected, Sora was beside her. She looked at the time and got up to wash up.
When I opened the door, I didn't see anyone, but the first thing I saw was her battle robe from last night hanging on the balcony...
The two corners of the lotus pink fabric were hung up, swaying gently with the circulating wind in the room, like a string that hooked people's thoughts. Everything that happened last night came to her mind, making her look away unnaturally.
She didn't know when she fell asleep last night, so Xiao Zhiyan helped her with everything.
He changed her pajamas and blew her hair dry. She even smelled the scent of conditioner in her hair in the morning...
This guy is really meticulous.
"woke up."
Xiao Zhiyan came out of the study, with a faint smile on his face, "Are you hungry?"
"Hungry." She held his outstretched hand and craned her neck to look into the study. "How did you know I was awake?"
"Take the tea for half an hour, then go scratch the door, and then come and call me." He pulled out the chair. “This time, he’s obviously excited.”
Hearing the name, Latte wagged his tail even more vigorously and put his chin on her legs.
He Chuyue smiled and rubbed its face with both hands.
Xiao Zhiyan brought the hot meal over, put everything in place and sat down opposite her, "Aunt called and asked us to have dinner tonight."
She took a sip of porridge and said incoherently: "Okay."
"Um."
Looking up, she saw that the bowl of the person opposite her was also one-third full of porridge, so she knew that he had eaten. He didn't ask, but just curved his eyebrows again and lowered his head to continue drinking porridge.
"Have you thought of a name for the baby?" she suddenly asked.
Xiao Zhiyan's eyes were sharp: "I have thought about it."
"Let me hear it."
"Xiao Muchu, Xiao Muyue."
She understood instantly.
It means that Xiao Zhiyan loves He Chuyue.
But...why does it sound like a girl's name?
"What about the two boys?"
“I didn’t expect that.”
"Pfft, you said it's the same whether you have a boy or a girl. You can't even name them equally."
He thought for a moment, "Let's name the boy He Muzhi, He Muyan."
"......"
He Chuyue didn't know whether to cry or laugh: "The boy will take my last name, the girl will take yours, Xiao Zhiyan, you......"
"Isn't it nice to listen to?" He asked seriously, with a slightly doubtful look on his face. "What about you?"
She raised her hand and swallowed the porridge in her mouth. After a while, she said, "I haven't thought about it yet."
Meeting someone's gaze, she explained, "Besides, dad is the one who has to come up with the name."
"You can also think about it, Mom."
"......"
The bell rang and Xiao Zhiyan stood up, temporarily interrupting the topic of naming.
He told He Chuyue that it was Yan Feng calling and went to the study to answer the call. The latter didn't object and continued eating. The porridge in the bowl was empty and her stomach was full. He Chuyue put the bowl into the dishwasher and cleaned the table, but no one came back.
Passing by the study, I glanced at the tense profile of the man sitting on the chair, and suddenly I had a bad feeling in my heart.
Xiao Zhiyan inside didn't pay attention to the outside and refused the person opposite: "Director, I know what you mean, but I am not the first person in charge of the project..."
His words seemed to be interrupted by the other side. He Chuyue didn't listen anymore. He came out of the study slowly and greeted Latte with coffee and walked into the room.
She knew that Xiao Zhiyan's experimental project would be very busy at the beginning, and guessed that the other party had probably assigned him some tasks or work... She could understand, but her mentality at this moment was naturally different from before, and the gap and sadness were inevitable.
She just sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, the coffee in her arms lying there quietly for her to wipe, and the latte lying on the side, its tail wagging back and forth. Until its ears pricked up, it stood up and Xiao Zhiyan came in from outside.
Before he could speak, He Chuyue asked, "Are you going on a business trip?"
He was startled, then reacted and sat next to her. He took her cold hand and frowned, "No, Director Yan felt that there was something wrong with the plan and wanted to ask for my opinion."
She was a little surprised: "Didn't I ask you to go on a business trip?"
"no."
"Really? You didn't lie to me?"
Her expression was too serious, Xiao Zhiyan laughed: "Really."
Her body relaxed and she breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.
"Don't want to be separated from me?" he asked knowingly.
He Chuyue seemed to be acupunctured and stuttered: "Who said that? You should go, I won't stop you."
"oh......"
"Besides, you go there to make money, to spend on me and the baby. Who would want to go against money?"
"Um."
Feeling his perfunctory attitude, He Chuyue was dissatisfied: "You don't believe it?"
Unable to stop smiling, he lowered his head and moved closer to her: "I believe it. It's me who can't leave you, and it's me who doesn't want to be separated from you."
She was reflected clearly in his eyes, and she became the only clear figure in the black and white.
My wrapped hands, which were warming up, were already sweating as I felt his heartbeat and veins. Her heart was warm, but she hated herself for being so sentimental.
He Chuyue lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then said seriously: "Xiao Zhiyan, you can't be absent during the birth of the baby, otherwise I will..."
She didn't say those two words, she knew Xiao Zhiyan didn't like it.
"I know."
He tightened his fingers and rubbed the red rope on her slender wrist, "I will always be here."
-
The two set out for the family building thirty minutes later than expected.
In the passenger seat, He Chuyue looked at her swollen lips in the makeup mirror with a resentful look: "It's all your fault. You spent so much time choosing clothes and kissed me in the cloakroom. If I'm late, you have to take the blame."
Speaking of clothes, she originally wanted to wear a V-neck sweater, but the red marks on her neck and collarbone were clearly visible. I changed my clothes because I didn't want to stain them after applying concealer, but there was also some on the back of my neck...
There was no other choice but to find a dark-colored sweatshirt and let Xiao Zhiyan apply concealer on the areas that could not be covered.
But as they were wiping, the position of their hands started to become wrong, and the shadows of the two people were leaning against each other...
Xiao Zhiyan glanced at her in the rearview mirror, his eyes turned down: "Okay, I'll take care of it."
After parking the car, the two went upstairs. Qin Tai opened the door, invited people in, and then went into the kitchen. He did not see Dai Wenchun.
He Chuyue asked: "Where is my aunt?"
Qin Tai poked his head out of the kitchen and said, "It seems that he was called away by Aunt Wang. He has been acting mysterious these past two days. I don't know what he is doing."
Xiao Zhiyan had already washed his hands and rolled up his sleeves, "I'll go to the kitchen to help."
"good."
She was the only one left in the room among the three people. He Chuyue felt that this was not a good idea, so she ran to the kitchen to help. Unexpectedly, Qin Tai blocked her way when he saw her coming in, "Go away, what are you doing here?"
She was stunned: "Help."
Seeing that his words didn't work, Qin Tai urged Xiao Zhiyan again: "You are not needed here. Take Niuniu to the living room to watch TV."
"Okay, I won't come in. Can I talk to you guys at the door?"
"Talk? What are you talking about with all the smoke? Zhiyan, hurry up--"
"Where is the fumes? Aren't you guys in the preparation stage?" He Chuyue was shameless. She leaned against the door frame and raised her eyebrows at Xiao Zhiyan, and asked, "Uncle, have you thought of a name for your nephew?"
"Oh! I've thought of it!" Qin Tai said excitedly, "How about calling her Xiao Yu'er?"
The two looked at each other, confusion in their eyes. He Chuyue asked: "What is the meaning of the little fish?"
"It's auspicious."
He Chuyue was still waiting for the next words: "That's it?"
Qin Tai blinked.
She shook her head.
Qin Tai: "No? I've been thinking about it for several days."
He looked at Xiao Zhiyan: "Have you thought about it?"
When Xiao Zhiyan said the four names, he and He Chuyue were both shocked: "Why do the boys have Niuniu's last name, but the girl has your last name?"
The look in his eyes as if he was looking at a fool made He Chuyue at the door laugh.
"We still have to think about it. Uncle, please help me think about it."
He asked again: "Is Xiaoyu'er not well?"
He Chuyue glanced at Xiao Zhiyan, who was grinning and didn't seem to be willing to help. She could only wait and see: "You haven't thought of a name yet, and there are two children, but you've only thought of one uncle."
"Yeah, I forgot!" Qin Tai slammed his head hard, muttering as he added water to the pot, "Really, there are two..."
He Chuyue's cell phone rang, and she saw that it was Mei Qingxue who went to the bedroom to answer it.
"Have a nice weekend."
The other side was running wild, "Happiness is bullshit!"
"What's wrong?"
Mei Qingxue said angrily, "Where are you? I want to see you."
"I'm at my aunt's house. I can't see you. What's wrong?"
It seemed to be outside, and there was the sound of car horns. After a while, her voice sounded again: "I was in a car accident."
He Chuyue stopped smiling and sat up. "What's going on?"
In the morning, Mei Qingxue and Xiao Wei met with He Changda at the agreed time, but the other party played Tai Chi as he did in the previous times when they met. No matter how Xiao Wei asked, he no longer admitted that he had ever said that he had met with the senior management of ADR and the project experiment group specialist. He only asked him how much money he would pay Chen Xu to testify.
As a lawyer, it is naturally not appropriate for him to make promises in person, as it might be suspected of inducement, so Mei Qingxue avoided the topic several times. Maybe He Changda felt that Chen Xu didn't want to give it, so he began to deny it.
The negotiations reached a deadlock again in the morning and ended with He Changda leaving in a hurry after taking a phone call. On the way out, Mei Qingxue and Xiao Wei parted ways. When crossing the road, she was hit by a car that ran a red light and was sent to the hospital.
It was when he came out of the emergency room after bandaging his wound that he saw He Changda, who was walking in a hurry. When he followed him, he heard the conversation between him and someone, which was about the case.
"I suspect that the person who met with the ADR executives was not a specialist, but He Changda."
Mei Qingxue's cold voice seemed to reveal some secret.
After hanging up the phone, He Chuyue walked out with a serious expression and ran into Dai Wenchun who had just returned to the living room. Before he could say anything, Dai Wenchun seemed to be hesitant and asked He Chuyue to wash her hands and prepare for dinner.
She felt strange and was about to ask when Qin Tai interrupted her with the dishes.
"Here we go! Three dishes and a soup are all here! Wash your hands and eat!"
“…”
The food tasted delicious, but the atmosphere at the table was not as relaxed as in previous times. Especially this time, whenever Qin Tai started a topic, Dai Wenchun would end it with silence, and everyone noticed that she was not in a good state.
"You look like this after coming back from the opposite door. What's wrong with you?"
Dai Wenchun put down his chopsticks, "There's not enough rice. Even eating can't stop your mouth!"
Qin Tai, who was scolded, glanced at He Chuyue, silently took a mouthful of rice and told them to eat more.
"Oh, Zhiyan's sweet and sour pork is delicious. How do you make the syrup?"
"I'll send you a WeChat message later."
"Okay, okay." Qin Tai picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork and put it in Dai Wenchun's bowl, "You eat more too."
The silent Dai Wenchun finally spoke up, and asked, "Oh? Did Zhiyan cook today's meal?"
Everyone was stunned. The next second, she said sternly:
"Professor Xiao's lab is not busy, and he is still cooking in the kitchen?"
