It was already late when the group returned home. The entire Song family residence was quiet. Outside the compound, except for the occasional passing military vehicles and the always-on street lights, there was no longer the noisy movement of the day.
Kyoto is very quiet at night.
After getting used to the bustling and bustling Beijing, the comparison with the present is like two completely different worlds.
After a good night's sleep, Ling Ju woke up very early with great difficulty. She had eaten too much last night, and her stomach started to rumble at around five o'clock. She quickly got up and went to the bathroom.
After going to the bathroom and washing up, I was no longer sleepy this time.
Song Qi just woke up, and the two of them decided to go out for a walk and exercise.
The morning sun was not glaring, but it was a little chilly in the early summer morning, so Ling Ju still wore long pants and a thin jacket. The two of them rarely held hands or linked arms when walking outside, but there were not many people outside this morning, so Ling Ju held Song Qi's arm. Song Qi did not refuse, but took the initiative to hold her hand.
Of course, if someone comes over, they will spread out.
She thought it was nothing, as people in this era were not that open-minded. Although the Song family didn't have many rules and regulations, they still had to be a little careful when walking outside. Many couples would keep a certain distance when walking together, and she and Song Qi were already very bold.
The two of them walked around Gulou Street for a long time until she felt her feet were a little tired, and then they went home. After all, her belly was big, so it was a bit inconvenient.
On the way back, I bought some fresh milk, beef buns, tofu buns and vegetarian buns.
It was only seven in the morning when I got home. Song Xin and Zhen Zhen had already finished their morning exercise and just entered the yard. I was a little surprised to see them coming back with breakfast.
"Second brother and sister-in-law, are you out buying breakfast?"
"Well, I had a bit of a stomachache this morning and couldn't sleep, so I dragged your second brother out for a walk and bought some breakfast. How are you two? Did you sleep well?"
Song Xin stuck out his tongue. "I slept well, and I didn't feel uncomfortable after eating something so spicy. My stomach is just a little bloated. I ate too much."
Zhen Zhen continued, "So we went running early in the morning, and now I feel like I've digested it."
"That's great. I just bought some food. Let's go in and eat."
After the family finished breakfast, Ling Ju was dozing off on the sofa when she heard the voices of Song Xin and Zhang Yu at the door.
The sound was a bit noisy, and the three people sounded like they were arguing.
Ling Ju was a little unhappy about being woken up. When she heard the noise, she stood up from the sofa and was about to go out to check, but Song Qi pulled her back, "I'll go check on you and let you rest."
Ling Ju felt that Zhang Yu and Song Xin seemed to be arguing, "Together."
As soon as the two of them walked to the door, they saw Zhang Yu staring at Zhen Zhen's face. Ling Ju was a little puzzled why he kept looking at Zhen Zhen.
"What's wrong?" Song Qi asked Song Xin.
Song Xin was a little impatient. "Uncle Zhang kept looking at Zhen Zhen, sizing him up and down. Zhen Zhen said a few words to him, and then they started arguing.
Ling Ju looked at Zhang Yu for a few seconds and then at Zhen Zhen. Suddenly, an idea popped into her mind.
The dimples are so similar!
Zhang Yu saw Ling Ju come out and his tone softened a bit, "I just thought this girl looked familiar, so I took a few more glances. I didn't expect her to be upset."
Zhen Zhen rolled his eyes at him again, "Uncle, I don't even know you, yet you come over here and start looking me up and down. You even say you're just looking at me for a second. Are you really just looking at me for a second? I'm embarrassed to say anything to you!"
Because Zhen Zhen had been groped on the train, she now hated this kind of staring or unexpected contact from men. If this wasn't a military compound, she didn't want to cause trouble for the Song family and would have greeted Zhang Yu with a beating.
Zhang Yu felt a little embarrassed by what he said. In addition, although Song Qi didn't say anything, his aura was too strong. He just wanted to urge Ling Ju about Zhang Fan's matter and then leave.
"Don't get me wrong, little girl. I didn't mean that. It's definitely because you just look familiar. I really don't have any other thoughts."
Zhen Zhen's face turned away, and she was obviously unhappy, but she still pretended to be patient, "Okay, just go away. Don't look at other girls like that next time. You are old." The word "obscene" kept lingering on Zhen Zhen's lips, but she didn't say it in the end.
"Well, Song Qi's wife, could you please help keep an eye on my Zhang Fan? I'll be leaving now if I have nothing else to do."
"Okay, I understand."
Zhang Yu nodded to Song Qi and left quickly, but before leaving, he glanced at Zhen Zhen again. Ling Ju always felt that this look was not simple, and the dimples on their faces made her imagination more abundant.
Zhen Zhen lost both her parents and was raised by her uncle and aunt.
Zhang Yu said that he and Zheng Juan had a first daughter, but she was given away because Zheng Juan favored boys over girls.
After calculating Zhen Zhen’s age, Ling Ju felt he didn’t dare to think about it anymore.
Miss Zhen's face was tense and a little red. Ling Juzi looked at her carefully and found that her face shape was very similar to Zhang Yu's.
They all have slightly round faces.
Judging from the facial features alone, they don't look very similar, but the face shape and dimples can't be fully inferred. So how did Zhang Yu find Zhen Zhen familiar?
Ling Ju had a hunch that something was wrong, but of course it was also possible that Zhang Yu had seen it wrong?
How could such a coincidence happen in this world?
Ling Ju directly pulled Song Qi back to the room and told him her guess.
Song Qi frowned at her and expressed his thoughts, "I think you might be overthinking it. There are many people with dimples, and you can't be sure based on just the dimples. Besides, my brother has investigated Zhen Zhen's background, and it's very clean."
Okay, Ling Ju was now sure that he was just imagining things.
"But is there really no possibility? Is Zhen Zhenzhen her parents' biological child?"
Song Qi didn't reply immediately, thinking about how to answer.
He was still cautious. After all, some things were possible, but the probability was very small. "Things like this can't be 100% certain. Those years were chaotic, and some information may not be complete. I can only confirm that Zhen Zhen's parents and uncle and aunt are ordinary people, but whether Zhen Zhen is a biological child or not, I can't say for sure. Besides, there is no technology that can determine blood relationship at present."
Ling Ju sighed, "Decades from now, DNA testing for paternity will be possible using hair and nails. It's still a bit inconvenient now!"
"Yes, but do you think that since Zhang Yu has made some discoveries, he might take some measures? For example, go see Zheng Juan?"
Ling Ju suddenly had an idea. "That's right! Zheng Juan must have handled it through the Zheng family. If Zhang Yu really thinks there's any connection with Zhen Zhen, he'll definitely find a way to find the Zheng family! Zheng Juan's procedures haven't been completed yet!"
"Not finished yet, but almost there."
