Chapter 338 What you think about during the day, you dream about at night
Perhaps afraid of startling her, the man stopped a few meters away, and the next second a deep voice came from behind him.
"young married woman--"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Jiang Si was stunned for a moment, and she even thought she was hallucinating.
But who else could that voice belong to but Huo Tingzhou?
Jiang Si turned around abruptly, and sure enough, Huo Tingzhou was standing under a street lamp not far away.
It is said that what you think about during the day, you dream about at night.
Just a second before Huo Tingzhou spoke, she was thinking that tomorrow was the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Should she call Huo Tingzhou? And ask him when he's coming back, so she can bring the two little ones to pick him up?
The moment that thought crossed his mind, he appeared right in front of him without warning.
"When did you get back? Why didn't you tell me you were coming back?" Realizing what was happening, Jiang Si ran towards him.
Huo Tingzhou smiled and opened his arms, bumping right into Jiang Si.
"Just arrived in Beijing." Huo Tingzhou lowered his head and gently brushed his chin against the top of her head.
Every breath I took was filled with her light and pleasant fragrance.
If he wasn't afraid she would accuse him of being indecent, Huo Tingzhou would almost have blurted out, "Wife, you smell so good."
It smells really good.
Jiang Si had no idea what he was thinking, and simply asked in a low voice, "Did you run into Uncle Chen?"
"Hmm." Huo Tingzhou glanced around discreetly. "Let's go, get in the car first, we'll talk about it when we get home."
Sensing something was off about his tone, Jiang Si didn't ask any more questions and let him lead her into the car.
When I got home, the living room lights were still on.
Today, Huo Erge and Huo Sidi went to their father-in-law's house to deliver festival gifts and won't be back until tomorrow.
Only Mr. and Mrs. Huo and the old man remained at home.
However, the old man and the others went to bed early, so only Mr. and Mrs. Huo were keeping watch in the living room.
When Huo Tingzhou knocked on the door, Huo's father was sitting cross-legged on the floor, playing with building blocks with the two little ones in the living room.
It was Huo's mother who opened the door.
When the door opened, Mrs. Huo was clearly taken aback when she saw the tall figure standing outside.
Huo Tingzhou smiled and called out, "Mom—"
However, when that word "Mom" was uttered, the heartwarming scene of the mother and son reuniting after a long separation and embracing and weeping, which I had imagined, did not occur.
On the contrary, Huo Tingzhou received a solid slap in the face.
"You naughty child!" Mrs. Huo was both angry and amused, her tone full of reproach. "You did the same thing last time, and you did it again this time. Why do you always do surprise attacks? Can't you even call ahead to tell me?"
"Look at you, all covered in dust and dirt!"
Huo Tingzhou touched his nose. "Mom, I received the notification at the last minute."
Upon receiving the notification, he immediately packed his luggage and headed straight to the airport.
It's raining heavily in Guangzhou, and many flights are delayed.
We were supposed to arrive in Beijing around 3 p.m.
It finally landed more than two hours late.
After landing, wanting to surprise his wife, he went straight to her workplace, not even having a chance to call her back on the way.
"Alright, alright, go take a shower. You're all sweaty and smell awful!"
Mrs. Huo was just saying that casually.
Seeing that he looked travel-worn and had bloodshot eyes, she quickly told him to tidy himself up.
Of course, she felt sorry for her son, but that didn't stop her from teasing him, "Remember to shave your beard so it doesn't prick Sui Sui and Zhao Zhao."
Her two precious grandchildren have skin as tender as tofu; she wouldn't stand for it if they got pricked and bled!
Huo Tingzhou knew this without his mother saying it.
Unlike Beijing, where the air is already cool with the arrival of early autumn.
In the south, the temperature is still over 30 degrees Celsius every day.
He had been covered up on the road all day and hadn't had a chance to tidy himself up, so he was indeed in a rather disheveled state.
"Dad." After greeting his father, Huo Tingzhou's gaze fell on the two little ones.
They have clearly grown a lot in the few months since I last saw them.
Looking at the two little ones, Huo Tingzhou's heart melted instantly. "Sui Sui, Zhao Zhao?"
However, when he called out to them, the two little ones just blinked their big, dark grape-like eyes and stared at him without much reaction.
Huo Tingzhou felt a pang of sadness.
On the phone, the two little ones called out to their dad so affectionately.
And it's incredibly clear!
Last time, she was still saying in a childish voice on the phone that she missed him.
It's only been half a month since I last called home, how come I don't recognize him anymore?
Just as Huo Tingzhou was feeling down, Jiang Si gave him an amused look.
His height was a given, and the two little ones were sitting on the ground.
Even with their heads tilted back, they couldn't see his whole face, so of course they couldn't recognize him!
"Squat down first, otherwise they'll only be able to see your chin," Jiang Si said with a smile and a wink.
Seeing his wife's eyes sparkling, Huo Tingzhou, though not understanding why, still cooperated and did as she said.
Jiang Si also squatted down beside him.
He clapped his hands together and said, "Sui Sui, Zhao Zhao, this is Daddy. Come here to Daddy and Mommy."
In fact, the moment Huo Tingzhou entered the room, the two little ones had been paying attention to him.
But at that time, you could barely see his chin.
Now we have a complete view of Huo Tingzhou's face, and we have also received personal confirmation from his own mother.
The two little ones immediately put the building blocks they were holding aside.
Mr. Huo wanted to lend a hand.
But before he could even reach out his hand.
Sui Sui and Zhao Zhao had already nimbly supported themselves on the floor with their chubby little hands, and then pushed off with their short little legs.
The next second, the two of them stood up on their own, sticking their butts out.
"They... they're leaving?" Huo Tingzhou's voice was a mixture of surprise and delight.
When he came back last time, the two little ones could only stand for a short while while holding onto things.
I never expected him to leave so soon.
As he spoke, he unconsciously opened his arms.
Jiang Si gave him a "you think so?" look. "In another two weeks, they'll be a year old. Isn't it normal for them to be able to walk?"
That's what he said, but his tone was full of pride.
She paused, then added, "They walk very steadily now, without needing anyone's help."
The first time she walked, it really gave Jiang Si a big fright.
This happened about two weeks ago. She woke up one morning to find that her two little ones were not in bed.
Fortunately, the door was locked, so it wasn't hard to find.
In the end, Jiang Si found them under the bed.
After a series of misunderstandings, Jiang Si finally understood.
It turned out that after the two little ones woke up, seeing that she was still asleep, they managed to slip off the bed and crawl under it to play hide-and-seek.
Just then, Huo's mother arrived.
When the two little ones saw their grandmother arrive, they raised their hands and ran towards Mrs. Huo as if they were drunk.
Halfway there, you might realize there's nothing to hold onto.
The two little ones were stunned for a moment.
So scared that he plopped down on the ground.
