Chapter 68: The long road to chasing his wife. He has to overcome the obstacles on the road of love...
The wind in early winter is not strong. After the temperature drops sharply, the cool breeze also carries a bit of biting chill.
Chen Zhiyu wore a gray nylon trench coat with an excellent fit, which made him look tall and with broad shoulders. The windbreaker is made of thick nylon and has a great feel. When you walk a little, it will bring a gust of warm wind that carries the scent of your body.
When he got closer, Xia Qingshu knew that Chen Zhiyu was spraying perfume again.
Xia Qingshu had a keen sense of smell during pregnancy, and she could smell the scent on his body clearly.
The top note is a light scent of cedar, with a chilly winter feel, which is completely consistent with his usual abstinent and cold temperament.
However, the base notes are a bit sweeter, with a slightly astringent sweetness of citrus mixed with the scent of male hormones, making him smell like a piece of sweet cake in a trap carefully set to "trap" prey.
Chen Zhiyu's hair has obviously been combed. It looks casual, but in fact, it has been sprayed with a little styling spray, making every strand of hair delicate.
He had just shaved, and there was still a lingering smell of aftershave on his chin. ??? ? Wait, why does he smell aftershave on his chin?
Xia Qingshu turned around and saw Chen Zhiyu behind him, his nose close to his neck, breathing intoxicatedly...
"Brother Zhiyu, what are you doing?!" Xia Qingshu was startled, and every cell in his body tensed up.
Chen Zhiyu smiled politely and said calmly, "Let me help you fix your scarf, it's a little crooked."
After saying that, he stood up straight, pulled up the scarf he had been wearing, and wrapped it around Xia Qingshu's neck.
Chen Zhiyu did not touch his shoulder directly, but just lightly touched it through the scarf. Xia Qingshu's body trembled and he took a step back unconsciously.
Chen Zhiyu saw clearly that Xia Qingshu was not avoiding him in disgust.
His little face was red, the tips of his ears were red, and even the base of his neck was flushed.
The beautiful eyes were blown by the wind, the eye sockets were filled with tears, and there was a hint of pink at the end of the eyes.
I didn't know where to look, I just didn't dare to look at him.
The child is shy.
"Didn't you say you weren't afraid of me? Why are you hiding?" Chen Zhiyu saw his cute little expression and felt itchy in his heart. He couldn't help but teasing him.
"I, I didn't hide." Xia Qingshu hugged Xia Qingqiu and stood still.
"If you're not hiding, then stand still. I'll help you straighten your scarf." Chen Zhiyu said seriously, "Look, there's such a big gap. It's letting in air."
He took off the scarf again, folded it in half, and solemnly wrapped it around Xia Qingshu's neck, "You're so grown up, and you can't even wear a scarf properly."
Xia Qingshu: “…”
How can there be such a person?
It's not his scarf and he didn't say he wanted to wear it.
In order to help Xia Qingshu put on the scarf, Chen Zhiyu almost stuck close to her, but not completely touching her. The two of them maintained a polite social distance of one finger's width.
Chen Zhiyu lowered his head slightly, and warm breath came out from his nostrils, brushing against Xia Qingshu's cheeks and ears.
Xia Qingshu didn't dare to move and lowered his head, like a child who had done something wrong.
Is this guy transformed from a cow? Why does he breathe so hard?
After putting on the scarf, Chen Zhiyu patted him on the back twice and took the initiative to step away.
Xia Qingshu felt the air around him begin to flow again and he could breathe again.
Although Chen Zhiyu looked very handsome in the past, he never dressed up deliberately. With a good frame and good looks, he could be so handsome that people would go weak in the knees as long as he put on a well-tailored piece of clothing.
I dressed up today and look even more handsome.
Xia Qingshu is surrounded by good-looking people, including He Chen, Xia Ji, Xia Shan, Wen Sheng, and even the older Xia Jing is still a handsome old man.
Chen Zhiyu's looks are not unique to him.
He didn't care about Chen Zhiyu's handsomeness, but he cared about the fact that "Chen Zhiyu dressed up specially to see him."
Thinking of this, Xia Qingshu felt a little uncomfortable. It wasn't that he hated the person, but he just didn't know how to get along with him.
He is slow in understanding emotions, and before he knew it, he thought Chen Zhiyu was a kind-hearted brother who took good care of him.
The moment Chen Zhiyu made it clear that he liked him, the "brother" setting could no longer be changed.
Xia Qingshu has experience getting along with "brothers", but has no experience getting along with "pursuers". Moreover, he had been a peony for two lifetimes, and he felt a little overwhelmed when faced with the advances of his suitors.
Chen Zhiyu saw his embarrassment and was almost killed by his shy and soft look.
Who the hell can stand this? !
The "serious person" once again "accidentally" brushed her fair and tender face with his fingers while adjusting his scarf.
So slippery...
Now outside, with strangers around, Chen Zhiyu suppressed his rising emotions and turned to criticize Xia Qingqiu, "Stop pulling my scarf, or I'll be cold."
Xia Qingqiu nodded milkily, "I understand, Brother Zhiyu."
The little kid is at an active age. After stopping pulling the scarf, he turned around and pulled his brother's hair and rubbed his brother's face.
Xia Qingshu has a good temper and doesn't get angry even if the little brat rubs his face.
Although his face is small, it feels plump when rubbed.
Chen Zhiyu was jealous.
"Don't pinch your brother's face like that." Chen Zhiyu pulled the kid's hand away, gently pinched Xia Qingshu's face, and then immediately let go.
A small red mark immediately appeared on the fair and delicate little face.
Chen Zhiyu pointed at the red mark he had made and taught Xia Qingqiu, "Look, my brother's face turns red when I pinch it. Don't pinch it again."
Xia Qingqiu nodded obediently, "Got it."
Xia Qingshu: “…”
~
Xia Qingqiu’s kindergarten is nearby, about 500 meters away from the community entrance. After Xia Qingshu took two steps, he felt a little tired. The doctor said that I can’t lift heavy objects before three months, but after three months, I can do some exercise. Xia Qingshu held Xia Qingqiu in his arms, as if he was practicing holding a baby in advance.
Although Qingqiu kid is only five years old, he weighs more than 30 kilograms. He doesn't feel anything when holding him for a while, but after holding him for a long time, he still feels a little tired. In addition, Chen Zhiyu will hit him when the opportunity arises, so he needs to be on guard all the time. As soon as he reaches the gate of the community, Xia Qingshu is a little out of breath.
Xia Qingshu breathed in slowly, and the tip of his nose was red.
The hot air blew into the cold air, blowing out a cloud of mist.
Chen Zhiyu walked around and came to the downwind side. He took a deep breath and could smell the fragrance exhaled by the other person.
It’s nice, soft and fragrant.
But he was suffocated to death.
Xia Qingshu felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach and stopped, "Qingqiu, can you come down and walk by yourself?"
Xia Laoer and Li Xiaoxi are usually very busy and rarely take care of Qingqiu. Qingqiu has been very sensible since he was a child. He nodded obediently and jumped out of Xia Qingshu's arms on his own initiative.
After Qingqiu jumped down, before she could stand firmly, she was hugged back by Chen Zhiyu, "Qingqiu, Brother Zhiyu will hold you, okay?"
After being hugged by Xia Qingshu for so long, Xia Qingqiu seemed to be imbued with his scent, like a warm and fragrant ball.
"Your brother sprayed perfume on himself, and it stained you too. It smells so good." Chen Zhiyu took a sip of Qingqiu openly. It seemed like he was sucking the scent of a baby, but in fact he was greedily looking for the scent of Qingshu on Qingqiu's body.
Wh, what?
When did he put on perfume?
Xia Qingshu was wrongly accused and a little angry, and said directly, "I didn't spray perfume, you sprayed perfume."
Chen Zhiyu teased him deliberately, "You didn't wear perfume, why do you smell so good? I can smell it from such a distance."
Xia Qingshu: “…”
Maybe you are pregnant too...
My sense of smell becomes more acute during pregnancy.
Seeing that the other party didn't speak, Chen Zhiyu hugged Xia Qingqiu and walked side by side with him, "Don't you think this kind of life is warm and cozy?"
A couple walked on a quiet forest path. The maple leaves on the side of the path had turned yellow. The golden leaves drifted in the wind and fell on one person's shoulder. The other person held the child, picked up the leaves that fell on the other person, and quietly put them in his pocket...
"An ordinary, happy family of three."
Xia Qingshu glanced at Qingqiu in Chen Zhiyu's arms and remembered something very important.
Chen Zhiyu seemed to be unaware of his pregnancy.
Suddenly I felt a headache.
He had asked indirectly before, and Chen Zhiyu had clearly stated that he did not want children. But now it seems that he likes children very much. After spending some time with Qingqiu, he can coax Qingqiu into speaking for him.
But he had asked Chen Zhiyu before whether he liked him, and Chen Zhiyu denied it. Now he is like this again...
He suddenly felt that Chen Zhiyu was very hypocritical in front of him.
What a strange person.
Xia Qingshu decided to ask in a different way.
He thought for a moment and asked, "Brother Zhiyu, I heard that some men with special physiques can have children."
"Well, there are very few people with that special physique."
There may be only one such person among ten thousand men, which is extremely rare. He had also seen it in news reports, but had never met such a person in real life.
Chen Zhiyu didn't know what he was thinking about, his face suddenly became serious, "Being with me, as long as you are happy, you don't have to worry about the children."
"I have said before that if my partner is infertile, I will not betray him/her for the sake of the child, and I will not do anything illegal."
"You can rest assured about my character!"
Xia Qingshu nodded in confusion.
He understood that the other party was expressing his loyalty to him.
In order to be with him, he was willing to have no children in this life.
Xia Qingshu's face turned red and she lowered her head and pinched her fingers.
Chen Zhiyu had been paying attention to his expression. When he saw him lower his head and blush, his heart softened for a moment.
Could it be that the reason why the children don’t accept him is because of the children’s affairs?
His family background was no secret. Thanks to Chen Rao's tireless publicity, the whole world knew that he was the only son in nine generations and needed to have a son to carry on the family line.
During the time when Chen Rao knew that he and Xia Qingshu were close, he looked for Xia Qingshu several times.
He knew Chen Rao very well, and it was just a matter of spending money to keep Xia Qingshu away from him.
The innocent little boy in front of him neither took the money nor stayed away from him...
Chen Rao always regarded the family business as his life's lofty aspiration and the most important thing in his life. It must be that Chen Rao scared Qingshu.
In order to avoid being accused of causing the extinction of the Chen family, the child buried his love...
That must be it!
The way Qingshu looked at him, behind the forbearance, was a surging love.
They don't accept him and say they don't like him, all because they are scared by his identity as "the only son in nine generations"!
No wonder he has such good looks, noble character, strict observance of etiquette and gentle personality, but still cannot find sweet love!
It’s all because of this identity!
Faced with the choice between continuing the family line and love, Chen Zhiyu decisively chose the latter.
Chen Zhiyu immediately made a promise, "Don't worry, no one in the Chen family will embarrass you because of the child!"
He will remove all obstacles on the road of love.
Children just need to enjoy the beauty of love.
"As long as I am here, no one in the Chen family will let you suffer any injustice!"
Xia Qingshu: “…”
He only said one sentence, but the other party said so much, and it seemed to have gone off topic...
Chen Zhiyu continued to explain, "I will soon have a brother or sister, and the focus of my family's attention will soon shift."
When Xia Qingshu heard the word "brother", his heart trembled.
That's not your sister-in-law, that's your child.
According to Chen Zhiyu, his child will face tremendous pressure to continue the family line as soon as he is born.
Xia Qingshu originally planned to tell Chen Zhiyu that she was pregnant, but suddenly gave up the idea.
He even planned to unilaterally tear up the previous agreement with Chen Rao.
Such a family atmosphere is very bad for children's growth.
