Chapter 1198 Going Out
"No, He Tian is very busy. He has a lot of things to do and will only stay here for two or three days. Let him take the children to play in Rongcheng first, and we will go back to Haicheng in a few days." Li Jinxing made up his mind. What he said was not a discussion with Gu Wanqiu. Even if she did not agree, he would take her back to Haicheng.
Haicheng is his base camp, where things are much more convenient and he doesn't have to run back and forth for work.
Gu Wanqiu heard this and refused: "Go to Haicheng, why do you want to go back to Haicheng? I don't want to go."
She was a person without a home, and could live anywhere, but Rongcheng was the place where she had lived the longest. She was very familiar with it, and she also had the opportunity to meet Gong Qing.
If she went to Haicheng, it would be difficult to see Gong Qing. She didn't know what to do next. Usually, whenever she had a problem that couldn't be solved or was in a bad mood, she would call Gong Qing. Even if Gong Qing couldn't find a solution, just listening to his voice would make her uneasy mood much better.
"Don't you want to go to the cemetery to see your father?"
Gu Wanqiu was stunned.
"Then after returning to Haicheng, can you come back?"
"I'll live in Haicheng from now on. As for Rongcheng, I'll accompany you back when I'm not busy."
Gu Wanqiu didn't want this to happen.
Li Jinxing knew that Gu Wanqiu was reluctant to leave Rongcheng because she couldn't let go of Gong Qing, so he said directly, "Anyway, you can't see Gong Qing or contact him before you give birth to the child, so there's not much point in you staying in Rongcheng."
"But I'm used to it here."
"You'll get used to it wherever you go. Haicheng has a better environment, and you can return to your real home. Don't you want to go back and take a look? Maybe you can remember something.
Or…" Li Jinxing changed his tone and said coldly, "You can't bear to part with Gong Qing, so you promised me not to contact him, but actually you've always wanted to meet him? And then do something shameful?"
Li Jinxing's tone was very unpleasant, as if he was warning his cheating wife not to have an affair.
Gu Wanqiu couldn't stand it any longer. She stood up in anger, her body shaking. "What shameful thing is this? You have such a dirty mind."
"Why are you in such a hurry? When you tried to steal important documents from the Li family for him, wasn't that shameful? You say I have dirty thoughts, but I don't think you have any clean thoughts either. You can only think about those things between men and women in bed, or... are you craving it?"
The more she talked, the more mistakes she made. Even if she had a hundred mouths, she obviously couldn't win the argument with Li Jinxing. Gu Wanqiu suffered a loss.
Li Jinxing kept silent with a stern face. He had made a decision in a short while: "We'll be back to Haicheng on the 3rd. There are still two days left. Just pack up."
The number four is unlucky, and number five is too long, so after thinking about it, number three is the most suitable. Just as He Tian is leaving on the third day, they take the children back to Haicheng.
Li Jinxing continued to watch the Spring Festival Gala. This year's Spring Festival Gala had several outstanding programs, which were discussed online, but Gu Wanqiu couldn't concentrate.
She held the phone, feeling a little uneasy, and her hand touched Gong Qing's number several times.
Although Li Jinxing said that he could return to Rongcheng in the future, judging from his tone, it would be difficult to come back. Does he really have to give birth to the baby in her belly to gain freedom?
Li Jinxing felt a little bored and took the initiative to talk to Gu Wanqiu, but Gu Wanqiu ignored him, which made him look
He talked to himself, but he was used to it. When two people get along, one has to take the initiative. It was the same when they were in the hospital.
With two children missing from the house, the New Year atmosphere suddenly became deserted. Compared with other homes nearby, there was no New Year atmosphere here except for the red lanterns and red couplets hanging outside.
The servants cleaned the yard early in the morning. Apart from the ashes on the ground, there was no trace of fireworks last night.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Siyan and Sixu, who had been playing outside all day, finally came back. He Tian and Zhou Yi each held one in their arms and put them down at the door.
They had a lot of fun and ate a lot on this trip, and also bought a lot of things, all of which were for Gu Wanqiu.
There are local special snacks, as well as small toys, pendants and the like... They are not valuable things, but the thought behind them is precious.
The snacks they bought were already cold. Gu Wanqiu hadn't had dinner yet, so Mrs. Li took all the snacks to the kitchen to heat them up.
While eating, Gu Wanqiu asked Si Yan and Si Xu how their trip was going.
Si Yan was so happy that the smile on his face never faded after he returned home. He turned into a chatterbox and started telling Gu Wanqiu all kinds of interesting things.
What rides did they play at the amusement park? What did they see? They vividly described the penguins they saw at the underwater world, and the dolphins and seals that performed...
Although Gu Wanqiu had never been to these places, she felt as if she were there when listening to Siyan's passionate talk.
"Mom, when can you go out? I want to play with you."
"I'm pregnant with my sister, so I can't go to places like amusement parks that are too exciting. Even if I go, I can't accompany you properly.
.”
Yes, there are so many people outside. It would be bad if they squeeze my belly.
"Mom doesn't have to play with me, I'm already very happy just by watching me."
Gu Wanqiu thought for a moment and turned to Sixu: "Sixu, do you want me to go out and play with you too?"
"Now that the fireworks are over, it's not fun at home. We can eat candied haws and sugar figures outside. I made a Monkey King today. It's so beautiful. Mom, you will like it too. We don't have to go to the crowded amusement park. We can go to the snack street. Uncle He said there is an ancient town with beautiful scenery, plenty of food, and face-changing. Mom, come out with us tomorrow." This was the first time Si Xu Shao talked so much. It was obvious that he had a lot of fun today and was so happy that he couldn't help but share his joy.
It was indeed boring to stay at home. Gu Wanqiu was itching to go out for a walk after hearing what the two children said. She was already bored in the hospital.
Her belly is not very big now, but in another month, it will be inconvenient for her to move around. She needs to move more while she can still move. Otherwise, if she stays at home all the time, she will go crazy before the baby is aborted.
"You should ask your father about this..."
As soon as Gu Wanqiu finished speaking, Si Yan, the man of action, ran to find his father, shouting, "Dad, let Mom accompany us to go out and play tomorrow."
"It's winter now, your mother is afraid of the cold, and she is pregnant, so it's not convenient for her to go out." Li Jinxing refused.
Si Yan retorted: "Who said that if you wear thicker clothes, you won't be afraid of the cold. Besides, we played all day today and my brother and I were sweating profusely.
"Even though Mom is pregnant, she can walk now. Tomorrow we just need to walk slowly with her and avoid going to crowded places."
"What did your mother say? Does she want to go out?"
"Yes, but she said she needs your consent, so I came to find you. Mom really wants to accompany us, and Chinese New Year is the best time to go out and play. Mom doesn't go out often enough, and she will be unhappy being locked up at home. Dad, please agree. If you are worried, you can go out with us tomorrow. It will be more fun with more people."
Li Jinxing was unmoved at first, but after hearing Si Yan mention that Gu Wanqiu needed his permission before going out, the sense of male chauvinism in his heart suddenly emerged, and he felt inexplicably comfortable.
Moreover, what Si Yan said made a lot of sense. It was very easy to get sick if you stayed at home for a long time without going out. Li Jinxing thought about it. Today, when only he and Gu Wanqiu were face to face, the atmosphere was not deserted, but there was indeed no New Year atmosphere at home.
We might as well find a nice place tomorrow and go out for fun as a family.
Maybe after going out for a trip, the distance between this family can be shortened.
Li Jinxing quickly figured it out, put down what he was doing, and followed Si Yan: "Go find your mother."
"Did Dad agree?"
"Well, I'll talk to her and we'll go as a family tomorrow."
Li Jinxing came out of the study holding Siyan's hand and saw Gu Wanqiu sitting on the sofa with Sixu in her arms. Sixu said something that made her smile. Her face was pretty. When Gu Wanqiu saw Li Jinxing coming out, the smile on her face immediately disappeared.
She looked at him silently, pursing her lips.
"Where do you want to go tomorrow?"
"As long as you can go out, it's fine."
Li Jinxing had some knowledge of Chengdu, but it was limited to the business aspect. He really had no idea which places were worth visiting, so he finally asked He Tian.
He Tian has been in Chengdu for a shorter time than him, but he is a person who loves to travel around when he has some free time. For example, when he came to Chengdu, he did his homework in advance and he knew many places suitable for fun in Chengdu. For example, today he had a lot of fun playing with his two children, and they didn't feel cheated as outsiders.
"I'll go out with you tomorrow, taking the two children, as well as He Tian and the others."
Gu Wanqiu moved her lips, but in the end said nothing. She lowered her eyes and agreed. It was already great that she could go out now, so how could she dare to make any requests?
He Tian and Zhou Yi came back from smoking outside. Considering that there were children and pregnant women in the house, they smoked outside. After smoking, they stood for a while and waited for the wind to blow away the smell on their bodies before going into the house.
As soon as he entered, Li Jinxing called He Tian and asked him where in Chengdu there were places suitable for the whole family to visit.
He Tian laughed at him: "You have been in Chengdu longer than me, do you have the nerve to ask me?"
"Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly."
He Tian didn't beat around the bush. In order to make a better recommendation to Li Jinxing, he asked one more question: "Is it suitable for the whole family to play? Does this family include Gu Wanqiu?" When he said this, he didn't avoid Gu Wanqiu who was not far away.
Gu Wanqiu paused for two seconds, then turned back to look at them. Her dark, translucent pupils were completely still, a kind of expression that could not be touched.
The movement is quiet and makes people feel comfortable watching it.
If one were to use one thing to describe Gu Wanqiu, it would definitely be a "sponge." She seems to be able to be squeezed at will, but no matter how hard you squeeze, she can return to her original shape.
Beneath her fragile appearance, she has a tough heart. Even He Tian, who hates her, has to admit this.
Gu Wanqiu is indeed quite amazing. He has been tortured repeatedly for so many years and is still alive.
He Tian admitted that she was powerful, but he also hated her from the bottom of his heart. When Gu Wanqiu stared at her silently, her eyes seemed like a provocation.
He Tian swallowed the unpleasant words that were on the tip of his tongue and asked, "Are you going out with Miss Gu tomorrow?"
"It's all for her. She's pregnant now, and going out for a walk will help during her pregnancy. Besides, the two children also like her company." As he said that, Li Jinxing lowered his eyes and reached out to touch Siyan's head.
"If we take her with us, we won't be able to go to crowded places. I've collected a few scenic spots here and will forward them to you. Choose one carefully. I won't go out with you tomorrow so as not to disturb your family's relationship."
"If you don't go out with us, what are you doing?"
"I'm having so much fun playing by myself, why should I be a third wheel for your family? Not only am I not going, Zhou Yi isn't going either. The two of us will just wander around. There are a lot of delicious restaurants in Chengdu, I'll go check them out."
Seeing that He Tian had his own arrangements, Li Jinxing did not make things difficult for him and asked him to send the location over.
He Tian selected several places from his collection and finally chose three to forward to Li Jinxing.
After receiving it, Li Jinxing took Si Yan to Gu Wanqiu's place.
I showed her the phone and asked her to choose one of the three.
All three attractions are very good. Gu Wanqiu asked the children to choose, and both children listened to her. Gu Wanqiu did not read the reviews and directly chose the one with a high score, which is the Ancient Town Park that Siyan mentioned. You can go to watch Sichuan Opera face-changing there. Besides, there are a lot of food there.
After deciding where to go, Li Jinxing clicked on the distance and found out that it would only take 40 minutes to drive there, and there were plenty of parking spaces.
The next day.
Mrs. Li prepared breakfast, which included sandwiches and soy milk.
Some of the gifts that Gu Wanqiu bought online for her two children yesterday have arrived, including two sets of clothes. After she dressed the two children in new clothes, Gu Wanqiu saw that it was getting late, so she simply took the sandwiches to the car to eat.
In addition to breakfast, some snacks were prepared in the car, and various supplies for pregnant women and children were placed in the backpack.
Li Jinxing drove the car himself, while Gu Wanqiu and the two children sat in the back. The journey that was supposed to take forty minutes took fifty minutes. During the holidays, many people from other places came to Chengdu to play. In addition, Chengdu itself has a large population, and everyone comes out during the New Year. There were many cars on the road, so they encountered a traffic jam and had to wait for several red lights.
When we arrived at the ancient town, we found that there were more people than we had imagined, but compared to the amusement park yesterday, this place was already less crowded.
The ancient town is also filled with various lanterns, like a city of lights. You can imagine how beautiful it will be when the lights are lit at night.
There were many vendors selling snacks on the roadside. As soon as they went in, the two children bought a string of candied haws.
Li Jinxing was carrying a schoolbag, watching the child while protecting Gu Wanqiu, avoiding
People around her bumped into her stomach, and she walked very carefully. Before she was halfway there, she had already broken out in a thin layer of sweat.
Gu Wanqiu just thought that Li Jinxing was making a fuss out of nothing. If the baby in her belly could be easily killed by someone, it wouldn't have survived until now.
