I finally fell asleep, but was woken up by Ji Linting's loud shouting.
Maybe it's because I've been a wandering ghost for too long, I didn't expect that I would fall asleep in the wild.
As soon as I took off the plastic bag above my head, my face was wet by the sudden rain.
I subconsciously wanted to protect the gifts I bought and hold them tightly in my arms, and I regretted it so much.
As I stood up, a beam of light fell on my face and I subconsciously covered my face with my hands.
Immediately afterwards, a big umbrella was firmly placed over my head.
"Come on, follow me in!"
The man's mellow voice fell steadily into my ears like a circling note in the rainy night.
I slowly raised my eyes to look at him in surprise.
The man was hidden in the light, and I couldn't see what expression he had when he looked at me. I just subconsciously moved closer to him and the small space he squeezed into under the umbrella.
As our breaths intertwined, the man in front of me straightened his body for a moment, then he stuffed the umbrella into my hand and turned alone to walk towards the light on the mountainside.
In the villa, after several years, I came back here again, and it seems like it was just yesterday.
Nothing inside has changed.
The only thing that was new was a wedding photo of him and me on the wall. I don’t know how he put it together.
I took a hot bath and sat on the sofa in the living room. Zhou Bingchen placed an agreement in front of me and said in a deep voice, "I want you to pretend to be my wife for a year. You can set the terms then!"
When I picked up the agreement and looked at its contents, I was shocked beyond words.
Zhou Binchen saw the horrified expression on my face, but he remained calm and briefly explained the reason.
Only then did I know why he did that.
In these three years, he never mentioned my death to the children, and strictly forbade his subordinates to discuss me. He only told the children that I was receiving medical treatment abroad.
So even if the whole world knew that I was dead, my two children would not know that I was dead.
Zhou Bingchen pointed at the blank space on the agreement, his eyes showing a complicated expression, "So, as long as you agree, you can propose any conditions!"
I looked at the blank space in the agreement and smiled at him.
He really isn't afraid that I'll ask for too much!
"Okay, I haven't thought about it yet, but I agree. I'll fill in the conditions once I've thought about them. I'll put the agreement away for now."
Surprise flashed across his dark eyes. He thought I would propose revenge on the Yao family, or perhaps thought I would ask him to help get rid of Yao Qingqing.
But I only hid the conditions and could not see any intention.
I put the agreement away, looked up to meet his inquiring gaze, and took out the tie box from my bag and handed it to him, "Mr. Zhou, this is my return gift..."
Zhou Binchen pushed the gift back without even looking at it, "I don't accept gifts from anyone other than my wife."
After saying that, he got up and left without saying anything more.
I put away the gift box and held it in my arms, my eyes sore.
I had never given him a gift before.
But he insisted that he would not accept gifts from others.
Thinking about how he closed himself off for a dead person like me, tears flowed down my face unconsciously.
His love is too heavy.
I ignored Ji Linting's spirit, which had just been furious and lashing out at Zhou Bingchen, and returned to my room to catch up on some sleep, preparing to greet tomorrow in the best possible condition. Thinking about the scene of meeting the child tomorrow, the corners of my lips slowly curled up...
Ji Linting watched helplessly as his fists pierced through Zhou Binchen again and again, but failed to move him at all, and he gritted his teeth in anger.
It was not until he followed Zhou Binchen upstairs and saw the ice room built at a huge expense that he was completely stunned.
When I saw the scene of Zhou Bingchen and my corpse sleeping in each other's arms, I was completely dumbfounded.
It would have been unbelievable enough if he remembered his past self buying an extra-large freezer, but I didn't expect Zhou Bingchen to be even crazier than before. He actually built an ice room and slept with me in a down jacket.
As a ghost, he was also scared to death, and he ran away directly through the wall and returned to my side.
Looking at the woman sleeping soundly on the bed, Ji Linting quietly moved his soul to my side, feeling the great sorrow and regret that his soul could not escape.
At least Zhou Bingchen could fall asleep holding her body and talk to her.
But he couldn't do anything.
Now, he even thought a little maliciously, how great it would be if Zhou Binchen never recognized me!
The next day, as soon as the morning light appeared above the horizon, Zhou Bingchen got up early and wanted to take Yao Zitong to make some preparations and learn my behavior to prevent Chenchen from noticing any flaws.
After all, Chenchen is very familiar with me, and Chenchen is as sensitive to smells as he is. I wonder if the child will be suspicious of Yao Zitong, the fake mother.
He had to be prepared. Thinking back to the past three years when Chenchen had urged him to take him abroad to see his mother, and the sad look in her eyes every time he refused, his heart ached as if it was being pulled apart.
So, even if it was a lie, he just wanted to make his child happy every day.
Zhou Bingchen came to the guest room on the second floor where I was staying and saw that the door was open and no one was there. He was about to go downstairs to look for me when he saw the light on in the kitchen.
He walked closer quietly and saw a busy figure moving around in the kitchen. Soon, a familiar aroma of pancakes wafted out.
For a moment, his whole body seemed to be frozen and he could no longer move.
During that time in northern Myanmar, some people questioned his undercover identity.
He asked for punishment himself and fought his way through a group of people, which made the base boss dispel his suspicion of him.
That time, he was seriously injured.
The house on the base is very small, with only one room.
There was only one bed in the room, squeezed with him, her, and Chenchen.
Originally, everyone in the base got their meals from the public canteen.
But Qiao Chuyuan secretly got an electric stew pot from somewhere, stole some ingredients and made soup for him in the small room, saying that the food in the cafeteria was too spicy and not suitable for recuperation.
At that time, the small house was often filled with the aroma of food.
What he could not have imagined was that a small electric cooker could even fry delicious pancakes.
She just sat by the bed, holding the cake and feeding him bite by bite.
At that time, he even wished that the injuries on his body could be more serious.
That way he could get one more day of her care.
Although he knew that she was just feeling guilty and thought that he was injured because of her and was stabbed by her mortal enemy, so she was being nice to him.
But he was willing to accept it, and he longed for those beautiful days to last forever.
Now, when he smelled the scent of home again, his eyes felt sore. He slowly walked forward and saw Yao Zitong busy in the kitchen. He was dazed for a moment. That was Qiao Chuyuan.
Zhou Bingchen closed his eyes, curled his fingers slightly, took a deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes were cold and indifferent. "What are you doing here? Get out..."
But the next second, when he saw me suddenly turn around, his brain seemed to have crashed, his mouth open in shock.
