Chapter 41 Yingying, Carry Me
"So, the steak that originally belonged to me was given to someone else, and that's why he wanted to treat me to a meal at the restaurant." After hearing this, Fu Nian realized that such a thing had happened.
It turned out that the steak that originally belonged to him was given to someone else.
"If it's been left out for too long, the flavor will change and it won't be very tasty. It would be better for me to treat you directly to a meal at the restaurant." Chen Riying tilted his head and raised an eyebrow. He was still fussing over this little thing.
"Everything went smoothly today, and you seem to be in a good mood." Fu Nian didn't really care. Seeing that she was in a good mood, he smiled and chatted with her about her daily life.
"Of course, I passed the qualifying exam."
"Fortunately, I passed, otherwise things would be troublesome." Chen Riying breathed a sigh of relief. If she had come here to study alone, she would not have felt any pressure even if she failed.
But Fu Nian had made such a big turnaround at work that he followed her.
If she really failed the qualification exam and returned to China, Chen Riying would feel very sorry for her partner.
"It won't be a big deal if you don't pass." Fu Nian said in a very Buddhist way.
"Eat." Chen Riying had nothing else to say and said with a smile.
It's because I don't want to cause him trouble.
She is a person who can't accept bothering others.
The restaurant is located at a relatively high level and faces the sea. Through the clean and transparent glass, you can see the scenery outside. The cityscape of Auckland is quite nice.
Chen Riying had a very relaxing dinner.
After dinner, Chen Riying planned to walk back. Fu Nian had actually just called the driver, so he had to give the driver a day off.
We walked back for nearly 3 kilometers, feeling the gentle breeze of the evening.
They walked back side by side, which was a rare thing even in the capital.
Chen Riying turned her head to look at the man beside her from time to time. It seemed that this kind of marriage life was not bad.
Ordinary and dull.
Let's just keep living like this.
As he walked, Chen Riying found that the person next to him seemed to have disappeared, so he stopped and turned back to look at him.
She saw the man not far behind her, holding up a black cell phone in his hand, taking a picture of her very seriously.
"What are you doing? Come over here and walk?" Chen Riying really couldn't understand why this person started taking pictures while walking.
Or secretly take a picture of her back.
"The composition just now was very good, and you looked very beautiful when you looked back." Fu Nian walked over and handed the phone to Chen Riying.
His hands were big, white, and had sexy blue veins. The phone looked small and thin in his hands.
The frame of his black phone is complete and clean. He never puts a screen protector on his phone and uses it with the original screen, which makes this black phone look very attractive.
Chen Riying felt that he could be a spokesperson for mobile phones.
He is not a nostalgic person and likes to use new mobile phones.
The same goes for Chen Riying. She is not nostalgic and often replaces her electronic equipment.
"Not bad, the photos are good." Chen Riying stretched out her hand and swiped through the photos in the album. The city background was very beautiful. The clothes she wore today were quite formal, in black and white. Combined with this moment, there was a sense that she was busy running around in this city, pursuing her dreams.
Even though she is just a busy student.
"Let's go." Chen Riying returned the phone to Fu Nian, and found that he wanted to continue taking pictures. Chen Riying laughed, grabbed his arm, and dragged him away.
"If we don't leave now, how long will it take us to walk back?" The streets were full of people, some were walking hurriedly, some were strolling leisurely. Chen Riying was not one of those who were in a hurry, nor was she the one who was leisurely. She was just someone who went home at a normal pace.
Fu Nian just put his cell phone in his pocket and followed Chen Riying in one step.
Let her witness what it means to have long legs.
The houses in Auckland are different from those in Beijing. They are very spacious, with larger glass windows than at home, and the view outside is even more open. The building density here is not as high as that in Beijing, but the buildings are also in pieces, but the distance between them is slightly larger.
There seems to be a default social distance between neighbors and themselves.
The last part of the way home is uphill.
"Fu Nian, I don't want to leave anymore. Carry me!" Chen Riying stopped at the bottom of the slope, looked at the man next to her, and made up her mind not to leave!
"No problem, come up." Fu Nian walked around to her, bent his legs and squatted, patted his shoulder, and motioned Chen Riying to come up.
"Here I come!" Chen Riying nimbly climbed onto Fu Nian's shoulders and lay on top of him.
My legs were tightly restrained, and I rose up feeling very safe.
The uphill slope was not steep, but it was very long, so Chen Riying lay on Fu Nian's back for several minutes until they reached the door of their home.
"That's enough, that's enough!" Chen Riying moved to get down and patted Fu Nian's shoulder.
After Chen Riying landed, she suddenly remembered a scene from her childhood that seemed so familiar to her today that she almost froze.
"What's wrong?" Fu Nian saw that she was distracted and waved his hand in front of her.
"Nothing, let's go home." Chen Riying blushed for two seconds, reached out and touched it, lowered her head and pushed the door open to enter the house.
Iris and Sam both congratulated her on passing the qualifying exam and planned to celebrate with her.
I went to her apartment, but she wasn't there.
"Rying, where have you been? You haven't come back yet? We said we would celebrate for you." Iris called Rying and spoke as soon as the call was connected.
"Sorry, I'm not in San Francisco today. I'm visiting a friend."
"Let's meet again tomorrow." Chen Riying suddenly remembered that she forgot to tell lris that she passed the qualifying exam.
Especially in the past few days, before the qualifying exam, they were all teaching her techniques for coping with the exam.
She asked a lot of questions humbly at that time.
"That's a pity Rying, Sam also bought a cake." lris said.
"It's okay, Rying, we can take care of the cake. See you tomorrow." Sam said repeatedly.
After Chen Riying hung up the phone, she met Fu Nian's gaze.
Why is he still here? Doesn't he usually go to the study or sit on the sofa by the window to rest after entering the house?
"Sam, it's a boy." Fu Nian met Chen Riying's gaze and said casually.
"Isn't the sound obvious?" Chen Riying saw him asking and said with a smile.
Sam's voice is so obvious, it's obviously a boy.
"It's obvious." Fu Nian nodded casually.
After saying that, he turned and went to the study.
Chen Riying smiled and followed.
"Do you need the study room today too?" Fu Nian asked after he entered the study room and found that she had followed him.
Chen Riying shook her head. She didn't need a study today.
"You use it, you use it." Chen Riying waved his hand, walked out, and considerately closed the study door.
After leaving the study, Chen Riying went to the living room to jump around. She looked at every corner of the living room and studied each decoration.
I was in such a good mood that I even found the dust on the cabinet interesting, even though there wasn't much dust at all.
On New Year's Eve, Chen Riying and Fu Nian flew back to China together. After landing, they breathed the cold winter air and felt the taste of their hometown.
It had just snowed, and the street greenery was covered with snow, giving it a unique winter feel.
There weren't many people in Beijing celebrating the New Year, and the city was as calm as a pot of boiling water that had cooled down.
But everywhere has been decorated.
"Finally I'm back. I waited until the 30th to come back. Couldn't you two have come back two days earlier?"
"You can stay at home for a few days this time." Ms. Dong Zhuo hadn't seen her daughter for a long time. She was waiting at the door as soon as the driver took them home.
"Three days, Mom."
"There's no such holiday over there, and school has just started." Chen Riying stretched out her hand and shook Ms. Dong Zhuo's hand, saying.
The school had its winter vacation some time ago, but the graduate students’ vacation was not long. Some left school to celebrate Christmas, while others stayed in school to continue their research.
Chen Riying is the one who stayed to do the research, and her doctoral thesis research has just begun.
"Anian, there's no need to look. Your parents are out traveling." Ms. Dong Zhuo told Fu Nian.
"I know." Fu Nian replied with a smile.
His parents like to travel during the Chinese New Year and don't even want to see their own son.
"Let's go in. We're standing at the door talking." It was still Dad Chen who invited us into the house.
Otherwise, I guess we could have been chatting at the door all the time.
After entering the house, he moved directly into Chen Riying's bedroom. Fu Nian was familiar with this place as he had been there once.
"I'll change my clothes and go play with Zhou Mo later." Chen Riying took off his coat and put on another one, saying as he changed his clothes.
"As for you, do you have any plans?" After changing his coat, Chen Riying suddenly asked Fu Nian with concern.
"Sleep in your room." Fu Nian stated his arrangements.
"Good plan."
"I'll tell my mother not to disturb you."
"I'll come back for dinner." Chen Riying nodded.
While going downstairs, she told Ms. Dong Zhuo about her arrangements.
"You left as soon as you came back. Isn't Zhou Mo's family having a reunion today?" Ms. Dong Zhuo was helpless. The man left as soon as he came home.
What kind of going home for the New Year is this?
"Reunion, but the New Year's Eve dinner is not at night, it doesn't matter, I will still come back."
"By the way, Fu Nian is sleeping upstairs, there's no need to disturb him." Chen Riying said as he walked out of the house.
Ms. Dong Zhuo followed her from the sofa to the door and watched her drive away.
"Well, the person who just came back is out again, don't worry." Father Chen walked out from under the grape trellis next to him, holding the cut branches in his hand, and said with emotion.
"Who says it's not true? Her husband is at home, but she is not." Ms. Dong Zhuo sighed.
They're already married, but they're still making trouble.
However, Zhou Mo is also her good friend since childhood. It is understandable that they meet after not seeing each other for a long time and they will only stay for three days.
Let’s meet. Let’s meet.
Not counting the traffic jam, Chen Riying drove directly to the only coffee shop that was still open. Zhou Mo had already arrived, even earlier than her.
"Mo Mo!" Chen Riying parked the car in the roadside parking lot and walked towards Zhou Mo.
She was waiting by the flower bed at the door.
"You drove here by yourself, isn't there traffic?" Zhou Mo ran towards Chen Riying and said while stretching out his hand.
"It's not congested. There's no congestion here, but I see that the other road is quite congested." Chen Riying felt that the traffic was not as congested as usual, although it was not completely unobstructed.
"Let's go inside. The wind is quite cold." Zhou Mo said as he took Chen Riying inside.
"Why do I feel like you've gained weight, Momo?" Chen Riying thought for a moment and spoke to Zhou Mo.
"I have gained weight." Zhou Mo opened the coat that he had been covering himself with, revealing his seven-month pregnant belly.
"What's going on!!" Chen Riying was completely shocked.
Oh my God, what is happening.
