After the party, the driver took Zhou Cheng back to the Lin family.
Zhou Cheng didn't let the driver help him back to his room. Instead, he walked to the sofa in the living room and sat down on it.
Everyone in the Zhou family went to bed early, so the living room was quiet with only dim lights.
At this moment, he was leaning back on the sofa, with his head tilted, his deep eyes tightly closed, his thin lips pursed, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he had a wild and unruly temperament.
He slightly opened his hazy eyes, and felt a soft touch under his broad palms. He lowered his eyes to look at the pillow in his hands, and the image of Lin Xuqiu sitting on the sofa holding the pillow at noon flashed through his mind.
Zhou Cheng picked up the pillow as if possessed by a demon, placed it in his arms, and gently stroked the pillow with his large, bony palms.
Since Lin Xuqiu became pregnant, she has easily woken up in the middle of the night.
I woke up in the middle of the night again tonight, but this time I was hungry. It was really depressing. I had no appetite during the day, but I wanted to eat in the middle of the night.
Lin Xuqiu felt that the little maternal love she had was almost completely consumed by the two little ones in her belly.
She touched the cold bed beside her, looked blankly at the somewhat unfamiliar room, and felt an indescribable sense of loss in her heart.
She and Wen Yanci had hardly ever been apart, but tonight the man received an emergency call and needed to return to Kyoto to deal with some matters. For fear of troubling her, he did not take her away and left her alone at the Lin family's.
Wen Yanci originally wanted Chen Zhizhi to come and sleep with Lin Xuqiu so that it would be more convenient to take care of Lin Xuqiu.
But Lin Xuqiu pretended to be strong and said to the man that the fuss was unnecessary. It was just a night of sleeping alone. What could go wrong?
"Gurgle gurgle~"
She felt the sound of hunger in her stomach, sighed softly, sat up, hesitated for a moment, got out of bed, casually put on a coat, and walked out of the room in slippers.
Because there was heating in the room, she didn't feel cold. She walked down the stairs quietly, and the sensor lights in the corridor lit up one after another.
Lin Xuqiu walked into the kitchen to see if there was anything delicious. Looking at the various biscuits, chocolates and other snacks in the cupboard, he thought for a few seconds and decided to cook some noodles himself.
She opened the refrigerator and looked at the dazzling array of fruits, vegetables and ingredients inside. She felt troubled. Her cooking skills were average, and now she had a picky appetite. She was afraid that after all the hard work, she would not want to eat anything in the end.
At this moment, she missed Wen Yanci and Aunt Wen's cooking skills very much. It was the middle of the night, and it was not convenient to ask others to get up and make her a midnight snack.
She frowned slightly, looked aggrieved, pouted slightly, and looked at the pile of ingredients blankly.
Zhou Cheng noticed Lin Xuqiu when she went downstairs. He watched the woman tiptoe into the kitchen, and followed her with a puzzled look on his face.
He saw Lin Xuqiu looking at the refrigerator with a bitter and resentful look on her face at the kitchen door, and realized that she must be hungry, so he suddenly spoke.
"Xuqiu, are you hungry?"
Zhou Cheng's sudden voice startled Lin Xuqiu, and she looked up at the man with a reproachful look.
"Brother, you spoke suddenly, you want to scare me to death."
Zhou Cheng leaned against the kitchen door frame, clasped his hands together, and said with a smile in his eyes.
"If you're hungry, just call me. If you're sneaking around like that, who will be scared?"
Lin Xuqiu thought the man's words were strange. How could she call him when she was hungry? But she was too lazy to argue with him and continued to look for suitable ingredients in the refrigerator.
Zhou Cheng walked behind her, reached out and took out some ingredients, and said.
"Looking at how clumsy you are, I guess you can't even cook. Let me do it and show you the cooking skills of the God of Cooking."
When the man approached, Lin Xuqiu smelled the smell of barbecue and alcohol on him. She looked disgusted and almost had morning sickness.
"Hey, I don't want someone who smells of alcohol to cook for me."
Zhou Cheng placed the ingredients on the stove, took off his leather jacket, threw it away, put on an apron, and then faced the sink, splashing cold water on his face and washing his hands...
After doing all this, he looked up at the woman with a look of disgust and said helplessly.
"That's enough. It's tasteless. I promise the noodles I make won't have a trace of alcohol smell."
Lin Xuqiu looked at the man in front of the stove who was already a little drunk, and a strange feeling arose in her heart. She suspected that her brother was drunk and confused. It was so weird that she couldn't describe the specific feeling.
Zhou Cheng ignored the woman and methodically washed and cut the vegetables. The whole process was quite neat and there was no trace of drunkenness...
Finally, Zhou Cheng came to Lin Xuqi's table with a bowl of delicious noodles and even held the chopsticks for her.
"Eat it, without a trace of alcohol."
Lin Xuqiu smelled the fragrant noodles and rarely had morning sickness. She picked up the noodles, blew on them a few times, and then slowly put them into her mouth.
The moment the noodles entered her mouth, her eyes suddenly lit up, and a bright smile quickly spread across her face, reaching her eyebrows, and then she gave Zhou Cheng a thumbs up.
"Brother, this noodle is delicious. You're not bragging."
Zhou Cheng was infected by the woman's smile, and a warm light flashed in his eyes, like a lake, drowning people in it, with an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.
"When have I ever boasted to you? I still have many skills. I can slowly show them to you in the future."
Lin Xuqiu ate the noodles in small bites like a little hamster, looked up at Zhou Cheng and smiled.
"Brother, you should save your skills for your sister-in-law."
"I haven't explored all of Yanci's skills yet."
Zhou Cheng's eyes darkened, and the corners of his slightly raised mouth tightened for a moment, then slowly fell. The warm expression just now disappeared without a trace, and he spoke coldly.
"Where's Wen Yanci?"
"How could he wake you, a pregnant woman, up hungry in the middle of the night and ask you to find food by yourself?"
