Before I knew it, the night deepened and the stars outside the window twinkled faintly.
Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Xuanxuan were tired from playing and gradually felt sleepy while leaning on the sofa.
Seeing this, Zhou Ziwen and Chen Qiaoyi took the children back to their room to sleep.
After coaxing the children to sleep, Zhou Ziwen and Chen Qiaoyi returned to the living room and found Chen Shiying and Shen Zhaodi still sitting there.
The four of them sat together and chatted quietly about their future plans.
Zhou Ziwen said, "I've been researching a new project recently. If it succeeds, it might bring greater development to our factory. However, it might be quite busy in the early stages."
Chen Qiaoyi looked at him with some concern: "Don't tire yourself out, and don't worry about things at home. Sister Shiying and I will take care of it."
Chen Shiying also nodded in support: "Ziwen, just go for it. We're here for you. If you need any help, just let me know."
Shen Zhaodi was even more determined: "Yes, I can also help you run errands and give you some help."
Zhou Ziwen looked at them, his heart filled with emotion: "With you here, I feel much more at ease. When this project is successful, our family will all live a better life."
Then they discussed some trivial matters in life, such as children's education, some small plans at home, etc.
In the quiet night, the light in the living room is warm and soft, connecting the four people closely.
They enjoy the tranquility and warmth, and know that this hard-earned happiness requires them to protect and manage together.
As the night grew deeper, the four of them returned to their rooms to rest, looking forward to tomorrow with their longing for the future.
The next morning, sunlight shone into the room through the gaps in the curtains, and Zhou Ziwen was awakened by the sound of birds singing.
He rubbed his eyes and looked at Chen Qiaoyi who was still sleeping beside him, with a gentle smile on his face.
He quietly got out of bed, careful not to wake her, and quietly left the room.
When he came to the living room, Zhou Ziwen saw that Chen Shiying had already gotten up and was busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
Hearing his footsteps, Chen Shiying raised her head and said with a smile, "Good morning, Ziwen. Did you sleep well last night?"
Zhou Ziwen responded with a smile: "Good morning, Shiying. I slept well last night. You got up so early."
As he spoke, he walked to the kitchen door, leaned against the door frame and watched Chen Shiying busying around, "Let me help you."
Chen Shiying quickly waved her hand, "No, no, go and rest, it will be ready soon. Didn't you say last night that you were busy with a new project? If you have work to do today, do it first and don't delay the important things."
Zhou Ziwen shook his head. "Don't worry. It won't take a while. I'll stay here and talk to you."
He walked into the kitchen and helped to get plates and set the table. "I think both life and work are important. I can't just focus on work and ignore life."
Chen Shiying nodded slightly. "It's great that you think so. But since the new project has a bright future, just work hard on it. You really don't have to worry about your family."
As she skillfully stir-fried the food in the wok, she said, "Qiaoyi and Zhaodi are also able to help out, and the children have become much more sensible now."
As the two were talking, Shen Zhaodi yawned and walked out of the room. Seeing the two people in the kitchen, she said weakly, "Good morning, you two. You're up so early and busy."
Zhou Ziwen joked, "You little lazy idiot, you didn't get up until the sun was shining on your butt."
Shen Zhaodi rolled her eyes at him and said, "We talked so late last night, I'm so sleepy."
As she spoke, she walked to the sink to wash up, and when she was done she also came to the kitchen, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Chen Shiying smiled and said, "Please help me take this dish out."
Shen Zhaodi took the plate and suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Ziwen, what exactly is your new project about? I didn't hear you explain it in detail last night."
Zhou Ziwen replied as he placed his chopsticks, "It's about the application of a new type of mechanical material. If the research is successful, it will be of great use in many fields. If our factory uses this material in its products, our competitiveness will be greatly improved."
Shen Zhaodi nodded, not quite understanding. "That sounds impressive. You can definitely do it!"
At this time, Chen Qiaoyi also walked into the living room. "What do you mean by 'sure'? I heard you guys chatting here from a distance."
Shen Zhaodi quickly said, "Ziwen's new project, I think he will definitely succeed in his research."
Chen Qiaoyi walked over to Zhou Ziwen and said gently, "I believe you too, but as I said, don't overwork yourself."
Everyone sat around the dining table and started eating breakfast, continuing to discuss while eating.
Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Xuanxuan also got up one after another and joined their chat. The family was happy and full of warmth.
After breakfast, Zhou Ziwen prepared to go to the laboratory to continue his project work, while Chen Qiaoyi began to tidy up the house. Chen Shiying and Shen Zhaodi also got busy. Everyone was working hard for this family and for a better future.
Zhou Ziwen packed up his things and prepared to go out to the laboratory.
He put on his coat, turned around and said to Chen Qiaoyi, "I'm leaving first. I may not be back for lunch. Don't wait for me."
Chen Qiaoyi nodded and said gently, "Be careful on the road. If you are hungry, just eat something. Don't push yourself too hard."
Zhou Ziwen responded with a smile: "I know, don't tire yourselves too much."
After saying that, he turned and walked out, heading towards the laboratory.
Chen Qiaoyi watched his back until he disappeared from her sight, then turned around and went back into the house.
Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Xuanxuan have finished breakfast and are playing in the living room.
Chen Qiaoyi walked over, sat on the sofa, and looked at the children's innocent smiles, her heart filled with warmth.
"Mom, can we go to the park today?" Little Yueyue raised her head, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.
Chen Qiaoyi smiled slightly: "Okay, wait a while until mom cleans up the house, and then we'll go to the park."
Xiao Xuanxuan also jumped up excitedly: "I want to go too! I want to ride the train!"
Chen Qiaoyi nodded and said gently, "Okay, I'll take you to ride the train later."
At the same time, Chen Shiying and Shen Zhaodi were also busy in the kitchen.
Chen Shiying is preparing some ingredients to make a hearty lunch.
Shen Zhaodi helped on the side and chatted with Chen Shiying from time to time.
"Sister Shiying, do you think Ziwen's new project will be successful?" Shen Zhaodi asked while cutting vegetables.
Chen Shiying smiled slightly. "I believe him. Ziwen always has a plan for everything he does, and he works very hard. As long as he sets his mind to it, he will succeed."
Shen Zhaodi nodded: "I think so too. He has sacrificed so much for this family, we should all support him." (End of this chapter)
