Chapter 79 Chapter 79 Returning to China
Tang Ningyue and Zhou Yuhe have been in Singapore for nearly a month since the engagement ceremony. Tang Ningyue has long been bored to death, while Zhou Yuhe has fallen more and more in love with this married life and even intends to advance the wedding date.
Only then did he understand the truth: happy people are always similar.
In the past, Zhou Yuhe had no envy when he saw his friends getting married, and even thought it was just a cage. But now, he even wants to tell his unmarried friends that marriage is really wonderful.
But obviously, Tang Ningyue didn't think so.
Although she doesn't have to worry about anything here and can just enjoy life, this is not what she wants. She still looks forward to returning home. She always feels that her home is her home, not here.
Even though she was surrounded by her family, she still wanted a home.
But whether in Canada or Singapore, she always feels that she doesn't have the feeling of home, and her comfortable life is just like this.
Zhou Yuhe's past days were completely occupied by work. He was even excited when Tang Ningyue took him to try various activities he had never participated in before. Or, he could not calm down when he was with her.
In Zhou Yuhe's eyes, Tang Ningyue is funny, lively and loves life. Since she appeared, his life has been turned upside down and has suddenly become as rich as an adventure documentary.
The two of them actually rarely go to parties these days. Most of the time they go out together, flying to a random place to chase a tornado, or photographing fireflies late at night. All the ideas are sudden and unplanned.
Zhou Yuhe used to be afraid of this kind of unplanned action. He was afraid of accidents and afraid of losing control. But now, he seems to have fallen in love with this kind of life where he doesn't know what will happen in the next second.
But when he was completely immersed in this beauty, Tang Ningyue mentioned it one day when they were lying in bed taking a nap - what date is the flight back home?
Zhou Yuhe lost all sleepiness in an instant. The thing he had been dreading for a while finally happened. He asked people to block the news from the country and stay with Tang Ningyue all the time. He was afraid that she would know those things, that she would want to return home, and that she would escape from such a happy life.
He turned sideways to look at her. Tang Ningyue was lying on her side, dozing off. Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling window in front of her were all kinds of colorful and rare flowers that they had transplanted. Everything in the room, including the garden outside, was arranged by them personally. It was a space that belonged to the two of them alone.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Yuhe leaned over and kissed her forehead. He brushed aside her hair and hugged Tang Ningyue in his arms. "Why do you suddenly want to go back?"
Zhou Yuhe looked calm when he asked, but his heart was actually beating like thunder. He even wanted to cover his ears and run away.
"Nothing..." Tang Ningyue touched her upper lip to her lower lip, still without opening her eyes, "Isn't this the itinerary that has been arranged long ago?"
"Yes..." was agreed upon.
The temperature in the room was just right, and the sunlight filled the carpet in front of the window. Zhou Yuhe held Tang Ningyue's hand and gently stroked it.
Her hands were always warm, not like the cold hands and feet of the girls he saw on the Internet, so Zhou Yuhe had no chance to do anything for her and gain merit. She could live well on her own, and he was just taking advantage of her.
The weather in Singapore always changes very quickly. It started raining again in the afternoon. In just a few seconds, it was pouring down outside. The few flowers that I had not had time to put under the corridor were blown crooked by the wind.
Tang Ningyue had fallen asleep at some point. Zhou Yuhe let go of her hand, opened an umbrella under the porch, and rushed into the rain to move the flowers. He couldn't name those plants, but they were Tang Ningyue's favorites. They had beautiful colors, but were also difficult to keep alive.
The rain got heavier, and the Filipino maid who was cleaning the yard rushed in to help save the fragile pots of flowers. After a busy period, they finally finished moving them. Zhou Yuhe's pajamas were soaked. He took the bath towel handed to him by the maid, turned around and saw that Tang Ningyue had already gotten up and was leaning on the wooden stake under the corridor, staring at him.
"Are you awake?"
Zhou Yuhe took two or three steps up the stairs, his body still dripping with water. He didn't get too close to her, but grinned from a few steps away, revealing a few teeth.
"What are you doing?" Tang Ningyue was leaning against the wooden railing with a blanket draped over her, like a lazy Persian cat.
"It's raining, so I moved the flowers in." Zhou Yuhe said this sincerely. He was not trying to take credit, but just didn't want Tang Ningyue to be unhappy.
“....”
Tang Ningyue followed his gaze and smiled, "They won't live for many days anyway, why put yourself in such a mess to save them?"
When buying the flowers, the shopkeeper told them that Singapore’s climate is not suitable for growing this kind of flowers, but Zhou Yuhe bought them anyway, just because she liked them.
"One more day is good."
Every day she lives longer makes her happier.
“.....”
Zhou Yuhe was coaxing her, but she didn't feel happy.
Tang Ningyue vaguely remembered that someone said that she always put her own happiness above the suffering of others, and she had a group of accomplices around her who supported her.
"Will they feel uncomfortable growing in such an unsuitable environment..." Tang Ningyue stared at the flowers with water droplets hanging on them. They had only been there for a few days, and even with careful care, they still drooped their heads and lost their luster.
"....Do you think I'm a bad person?" Zhou Yuhe stared into her eyes, and suddenly, like a child who had made a mistake, he tugged at the corner of his clothes anxiously.
"Yes, he is quite bad." Tang Ningyue nodded, smiled at his nervous expression, and gestured with her hands, "But compared to me, you are still a little far away."
"Then I'll send them away tomorrow," Zhou Yuhe assured her. "Send them to a breeding center and let them live a good life."
"When did you become a philanthropist again?" Tang Ningyue stared at Zhou Yuhe with interest.
"So what do you want me to be?"
Zhou Yuhe's pajamas were still sticking to his skin, his hair was wet, and water droplets were flowing down his forehead.
"If you don't take a shower, you'll catch a cold tomorrow."
Tang Ningyue didn't respond to his words. She said one sentence and turned to go back to the room. Zhou Yuhe hurried forward and held her hand. "I just want you to be happy. Please don't dislike me, okay?"
“....”
She is happy when drinking and attending music festivals, but she does not like alcohol or those so-called rappers who sing vulgar lyrics.
Sometimes she likes someone who makes her unhappy, and sometimes she doesn't like someone who makes her happy that much.
"Then let's go back home this week," she said.
"Return home?"
"Don't you want me to be happy?" she said. "I'm not happy here. I'll be happy when I go back."
“.....”
"Then can I invite my friends to come here and play?" Zhou Yuhe felt from the beginning to the end that Tang Ningyue was bored because she had no friends to accompany her.
“.....”
Tang Ningyue stood on a step higher than him, her smile widening. She tilted her head, pulled the towel from his arms and wiped his hair, rubbing his ears while running her hair.
"What's wrong with you?" She still smiled.
"It's okay..." Zhou Yuhe sometimes hated himself for always being tongue-tied in front of her. He was obviously very good at business, but he would reveal his flaws in such matters.
"Are you hiding something from me?"
".....No."
"No?" Her smile turned dangerous. "I'll give you one last chance~"
