In the car, Shen Qingli felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, and his hands on his legs were covered in cold sweat.
She never imagined that the gears of fate would turn so quickly that she would get into Zhou Yanchen's car with her two children.
This sudden scene, like an unexpected storm, threw her into a panic.
Zhou Yanchen looked at the back seat through the rearview mirror, and the corners of his lips inadvertently raised a complex arc.
That smile contained surprise, excitement, pain, sadness, and a hint of indescribable anger, with so many emotions intertwined in the smile.
When 놛's eyes fell on Shen Jinnan's childish face that looked exactly like 눕 when he was a child, 뀞he was already certain in his heart that there was no need for paternity testing, this child must be 놛's son,
At that moment, the words that Shen Jinxi had said to 놛 in the past echoed in 놛's ears. 놛 woke up as if from a dream, realizing that he was the "bastard".
Thinking of the life-and-death situation Shen Qingli experienced during childbirth, her heart began to ache.
She didn't have much money and no one was around her at the time. How did she get through that time?
If only I had found her earlier.
Zhou Yanchen tried his best to calm his inner waves and asked softly, "Dabao, Xiaobao, what do you want to eat?"
Shen Jinxi's bright eyes rolled around, and she said with a child's innocence and expectation: "Uncle, can I have a burger?"
Shen Qingli immediately tried to stop him: "Xiaobao, let's eat burgers today. Mommy will take you out to eat in two days."
She knew very well that Zhou Yanchen never ate burgers, and she didn't want to make the situation awkward.
However, Zhou Yanchen spoke in a low but firm voice: "Okay, let's go eat burgers."
After hearing this, Shen Jinnan and Shen Jinxi smiled happily.
Seeing this, Shen Qingli spoke again: "No need, I can take you out to eat in the evening."
Zhou Yanchen raised his lips slightly, "I want to eat burgers, too."
Shen Qingli blurted out consciously: "Is that what you hate eating the most?"
As soon as the words fell, the air in the car seemed to freeze in an instant, and an embarrassing awkwardness spread.
Zhou Yanchen's hands gripping the steering wheel tightened subconsciously, but the corners of his eyes quietly raised.
Behind this embarrassment, a different kind of joy welled up in her heart. She actually still remembered her own preferences.
Does this mean that, deep down, she doesn't really care?
Shen Qingli also regretted her slip of the tongue. She bit her lip tightly and looked out the window with a somewhat panicked look.
Zhou Yanchen had never been to a burger shop and had no idea where it was.
He tapped his finger on the phone screen, quickly opening the navigation software, and followed the robot's voice instructions, slowly driving towards his destination.
As soon as the car stopped, she unbuckled her seat belt impatiently, got out of the car quickly, walked around to the back door, and gently and naturally carried the child in her arms.
Then, he reached out his hand to Shen Qingli.
Shen Qingli raised his eyes, and the moment his eyes met with 놛's, he was speechless. He raised his hand and gently opened 놛's hand, "I am a child."
She had long been accustomed to facing the ups and downs of life alone, and was not used to being taken care of by others.
Shen Qingli got out from behind the car, picked up one of the children with each hand, and walked towards the burger shop.
Zhou Yanchen looked at her slightly thin but straight back, his brows slightly furrowed, and a feeling of sadness rose in his heart.
She has always been strong, is it because there is no one behind her to rely on?
The sunlight shines on them, outlining a warm yet slightly alienated picture.
Zhou Yanchen stood quietly in place, staring at the three of them walking away from his back, the corners of his mouth raised involuntarily, outlining a warm and happy arc.
At this moment, a wonderful feeling that I have never experienced before came over me. It turns out that being a father feels so wonderful.
The moment I saw Shen Qingli hugging Shen Jinxi, the feeling I felt at that time could not be described in words.
놛 was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to his senses, locked the car, quickened his pace and followed 깊.
After entering the store, Zhou Yanchen went straight to the front desk. After a brief exchange with the clerk, he went to a quiet private room.
놛놊 hopes someone will come and disturb the lives of our family of four.
Shen Qingli sat a little far away from Zhou Yanchen, looking at him and the two children with complicated eyes as they studied the menu with great interest.
Her heart was like a mixture of mixed feelings.
Her eyes moved between the child and Zhou Yanchen, not knowing how to deal with this sudden closeness.
What worries her even more is that Zhou Yanchen knows that the children are hers. Will she snatch them away?
Just thinking about it, Shen Qingli felt as if a piece of rock was pressing on her chest, making it difficult for her to breathe.
Zhou Yanchen raised his eyes and saw that she looked very happy. "Xiao Li, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling well?"
Hearing this, Shen Qingli came back to his senses, "Don't call me like that, we are not familiar enough to call each other by name like that."
Zhou Yanchen pursed his lips, "What should I call you then? Shen Qingli?"
"Do you think this is too unfamiliar?"
Shen Qingli raised a meaningful smile at the corner of his lips, "Boss Zhou, when have we ever known each other?"
“Have we always been like this?”
Seeing the children's gazes, Shen Qingli changed the subject and said, "Dabao, Xiaobao, have you chosen?"
Shen Jinnan and Shen Jinxi said in unison: "Mom, we've made our choice."
"By the way, uncle seems he hasn't ordered yet." Shen Jinxi added.
Shen Qingli looked happy and angry: "If you want to eat burgers, the store also has other set meals."
"It's just that it will definitely suit Mr. Zhou's taste."
Zhou Yanchen sighed secretly. Now no matter how Shen Qingli treated him, he deserved it.
Who told you to be a human being back then?
"Dabao, Xiaobao, you guys order something for dad..." Seeing the look in Shen Qingli's eyes, Zhou Yanchen changed his words and said, "Just order one for uncle. I like whatever you order."
Shen Jinxi smiled and nodded, "Okay, Uncle, you can eat the same thing as us. I think this is the most delicious."
"Okay, uncle will listen to Xiaobao."
Shen Jinxi looked at Zhou Yanchen, "Uncle, I'm sorry for calling you dad without your consent. I just wanted them to say that my brother and I are bastards."
"My brother and I will be sad to hear this, and so will my mother."
Zhou Yanchen felt a pang of pain when he heard this, "You have a father, and your father from now on will be..."
Shen Qingli was afraid to say the word "I", so she interrupted him quickly: "Dabao, Xiaobao, Mommy will take you to wash your hands and eat right away."
She got up in a panic and came to Shen Jinnan and Shen Jinxi, taking them to the bathroom.
Zhou Yanchen sat in his seat, feeling very uncomfortable.
Seeing the children come back, Zhou Yanchen gave them some instructions and then went to the bathroom.
Shen Qingli leaned helplessly against the cold wall. At this moment, her thoughts were like a tangled mess blown by a strong wind.
She bit her lips tightly and kept asking herself: What should I do now?
How should we deal with it next?
Zhou Yanchen had obviously begun to doubt.
At this moment, a deep and magnetic voice suddenly rang out: "Shen Qingli, what are you hiding from me?"
The sound exploded in her ears like thunder, and she shuddered all over.
Shen Qingli raised her head in surprise, and her eyes instantly met Zhou Yanchen's deep and bottomless eyes.
Zhou Yanchen stared at the person in front of him with cold eyes, and suddenly stretched out his slender and strong arms, trapping Shen Qingli in this narrow space like an iron clamp, leaving her nowhere to escape.
"Shen Qingli!" Zhou Yanchen gritted his teeth and squeezed out her name from between his teeth. His voice was low and full of pressure. "Is the child mine?"
"Is it that night?"
Although I think the child is my own, I want to hear her say it herself.
