Let's move out
Song Nian was surprised to hear that the two children were in love, but he didn't find it strange.
Thinking back on their daily lives together, combined with their overly intimate behavior during the New Year period, she should have guessed it a long time ago. It's just that she has been indulging in her unrequited love recently, and has been panicking all day, struggling with how to tell Song Shuyang, so she didn't notice this secret love affair under her nose.
It's normal for them to fall in love with each other.
Having grown up together and experienced so many things together, they have already left a deep bond in each other's hearts. Regardless of whether this bond will develop into love, they are already the most indispensable people in each other's lives.
Even Song Nian's own portrait of his future daughter-in-law was based on Jin Zhou's.
Only Jin Zhou can control Song Shuyang, and only Song Shuyang can inject fresh colors into Jin Zhou's life.
Song Nian patted his back gently. "Last time you told me you liked boys, was it because you were already with brother... and Xiaozhou at that time?"
Song Shuyang shook his head, "We weren't together at that time."
"Mom should have noticed it earlier. Xiaozhou is so good-looking, and you are so handsome. It would be strange if we didn't fall in love with each other if we lived under the same roof."
Song Nian accepted it faster than he thought, but he didn't know how to continue this relationship.
"What should I do, Mom..." He was like a helpless baby, only knowing how to ask his mother for help.
Song Nian smiled and sighed.
"Yangyang, to be honest, when I found out my daughter-in-law was Xiaozhou, my first reaction was, 'That's great! Xiaozhou will stay with me forever.'"
His mother's understanding and comfort made Song Shuyang even more devastated.
"But I can't force you to break up with Uncle Jin just for my own sake."
"It's okay, Yangyang, it's really okay," Song Nian said with a fake, nonchalant smile, "Mom knows you've been a well-behaved child since you were little. Just get along well with Xiaozhou, and don't think too much about anything else. Even if Old Jin and I can't be husband and wife, being in-laws is fine too."
She stood up and said, "Calm down for a while. I'll go talk to Xiaozhou."
Song Nian opened the door, secretly wiped away her tears, and deliberately forced a calm smile. Just as she was about to walk to another room, she saw Jin Zhou standing outside the door.
Jin Zhou called out "Mom".
"Xiao Zhou, Xiao Zhou," Song Nian crossed her arms and pretended to be angry. "So this is what you meant when you called me mom. I didn't even guess it."
Jin Zhou curled the corners of his lips, "It also means something else."
"You've always known both meanings, but you haven't told either side?"
"Yes, I was wrong," Jin Zhou handed her a piece of paper, "I want to be registered in the same household registration book with Song Shuyang."
Song Nian was stunned, and his reaction was exactly the same as Song Shuyang's just now.
After all, mothers and sons are very similar, and Song Shuyang's high moral standards come from what she has been influenced by.
Jin Zhou said calmly and frantically: "Actually, there is no problem at all. He and I can't get married. Isn't it good to become a family through this method?"
"Xiao Zhou, you..."
"This way, you and my dad don't have to break up, and everyone is happy."
Song Nian was also in a dilemma.
Indeed, there is no problem in terms of emotion or reason. Nothing needs to be changed. Just maintain the current status quo.
She was almost moved by his words when Song Shuyang in the room suddenly called out to him, "Mom! Mom, come in!"
"What's wrong, Yangyang?" She and Jin Zhou rushed into the room one after another.
Song Shuyang held her cell phone in her hand and cried even more miserably than before she left.
"Uncle Jin was in a car accident..."
They immediately bought the fastest flight back to Jiang City. Jin Jiaan's accident happened on the highway connecting Jiang City and Shanghai City. The vehicle overturned and slid directly off the overpass. The only lucky thing was that there was a pool of water underneath, which cushioned his death with the help of the water. He did not die on the spot.
Bad things happened at once. Song Shuyang experienced three frights and did not sleep for twenty-six hours. He sat outside the intensive care unit waiting for the doctor's notice.
Jin Zhou wanted to shake his hand but he dodged.
Only when something really happened did he realize that Jin Jiaan had silently occupied the position of father in his mind. He had already lost one father and could not lose again.
Song Shuyang didn't dare to think about the man who always kept silent but would quietly inquire about his preferences and bring him surprises every time he came home, if he disappeared from his life.
"Zizi," Jin Zhou's voice was hoarse, "Give me some strength, please."
Jin Zhou was also afraid.
Song Shuyang slowly reached out and placed his hand on the back of his cold hand.
The last time they experienced the same scene was when they were waiting for Jin Zhou to come out, and this time it was when they were waiting for Jin Jiaan. It seemed that things had always been unlucky for their family. There was an invisible force that was forcing them to truly accept each other and become a family in this cruel way.
The doctor came out and said that the patient was no longer in danger of death and could be transferred to the general ward after two days of observation.
Song Nian's body was limp, and he could barely stand. He said with tears in his eyes, "It's okay...it's okay..."
Song Shuyang asked cautiously: "Can I go in and see him?"
"I'm sorry, only the patient's immediate family members are allowed in at this time."
"I'm his son," Jin Zhou turned around and asked him, "Is there anything you want to say to him? I'll help you convey it."
Song Shuyang closed his eyes, and two lines of tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes.
He said, "Let Uncle Jin be with my mother."
"What about us?" Jin Zhou asked in a hoarse voice.
"Let's... forget it, brother."
During the long journey into the ward, Jin Zhou thought a lot.
When they were young, he used all kinds of tricks to force Song Shuyang to call him brother, but the word "brother" just now almost made him collapse.
He was too greedy, wanting to be his brother and his boyfriend at the same time, not knowing that these two identities were incompatible with Song Shuyang.
He pushed open the door of the ward and saw a pale-faced man lying on the bed.
The doctor instructed, "You can only stay here for ten minutes at most, and don't say anything that might agitate the patient."
Jin Zhou walked to the bed and called out, "Dad."
Jin Jiaan forced his eyes open and called out weakly, "Xiao Zhou..."
"Dad owes you too much."
Jin Zhou looked at him quietly without responding.
Did Jin Jiaan owe him? He certainly did. In this world, what qualified father would abandon his own child to someone else to take care of for a long time? If he had met a devil with a human face and a beastly heart instead of Song Nian, perhaps he would have jumped down in despair long ago.
But that person happened to be Song Nian, Song Shuyang's mother.
After he turned twenty-one, he began to express his gratitude again, thanking him for bringing him to the Song family.
Sometimes people really should believe in fate, just like Jin Zhou almost died on the boat, and Jin Jiaan's family has never been at peace.
"Small... small boat..."
Jin Zhou heard him calling him again in a mosquito-like voice and lowered his head to listen carefully.
"Tell Aunt Song...I never...never liked her...You and Yangyang...stay together..."
Jin Zhou didn't know when he discovered his relationship with Song Shuyang.
But what he was sure of was that his father's final decision to reject Song Nian's kindness was not just because of this incident.
Jin Jiaan told him something, which not only Song Shuyang didn't know, but even Song Nian didn't know.
He had met Song Shuyang's father, Song Nian's ex-husband.
When Jin Jia'an delivered goods to Jing City, he didn't have much affection for Song Nian at that time. He just simply thought that Song Nian was very good to his son, and he should be nicer to Song Shuyang. He kept hearing him talk about the sesame cakes at the doorstep, so he found the alley where they used to live and wanted to bring some back to Song Shuyang.
While waiting in line, he heard the man in front of him chatting with the boss.
“Buying so much at once?”
"Well, go see Jiangshi Yangyang and bring him more. He loves to eat."
"Yangyang, this kid still refuses to come back to visit? Oh, he's really stubborn. So what are you planning on doing? Just take a look and come back?"
The man in a well-tailored suit and a refined demeanor smiled calmly, "I'm going to stay there."
"Oh, are you going to ask Xiao Song to get back together? No wonder you dress so handsomely. This is not easy, you have to perform well."
"certainly."
The man hurried away carrying a large bag of pancakes, and Jin Jiaan also left the team silently.
He originally wanted to say that he happened to live at his ex-wife's house and could call you on his way over, but firstly, he had no habit of chatting with strangers, and secondly, he was afraid that saying so would cause the other party to misunderstand his relationship with Song Nian and affect their remarriage.
But I didn't expect that this glance would be a farewell forever. An hour later, the news reported that a serious car accident occurred on the Beijing Expressway and no one in the car survived.
Jin Jiaan was speechless.
If he had spoken up at that time, Song Shuyang's father would have been fine, and he might have remarried Song Nian smoothly, and the two of them would have continued to run their family in Jiang City.
With this guilty feeling, he tried to compensate Song Shuyang and Song Nian, but he didn't expect that their feelings would gradually cross the line after several times of getting along. He became more and more taciturn and spent less and less time in Qingmei Lane.
So when Song Nian took the initiative to show her kindness to him, he didn't dare to accept it.
He was afraid that he was not worthy of her, afraid that she would be disappointed in marriage again, and even more afraid that if he kept running on the road every day, something would happen to him one day, and Song Shuyang would experience the pain of losing her family again.
"Fortunately, I didn't agree to her." Jin Jiaan coughed violently and used all his strength to say the last words, "Xiao Zhou... let's move out."
