On the fifth anniversary of their marriage, Song Chen finally took a day off. He took a bus home immediately after work at noon, ordered flowers at the flower shop, and went to the vegetable market with his son Lin Jingbei to buy vegetables. He then started cooking as soon as he came back.
Lin Jingbei was sitting in the rocking car in the living room, talking non-stop to Yang Zhenhui.
Song Chen didn't tell Lin Lu in advance because he originally wanted to give her a surprise. Who knew that he had already prepared the dishes and was waiting for Lin Lu to come home from get off work.
However, Lin Lu called Yang Zhenhui and said that the firm was having a dinner party because they had just won a big case and her colleagues asked her to treat them, but she couldn't leave.
Seeing that her son had been busy for the entire afternoon, Yang Zhenhui didn't know how to answer, so she simply handed the phone to Song Chen and asked him to talk to him.
Lin Lu: "When did you go home?"
Song Chen remained calm, "Just arrived. Where are you having dinner? Do you want me to pick you up?"
Lin Lu: "At the Huaxing Hotel, no need to pick me up. You guys can eat first. I'll ask a colleague to take me there later. We're driving the company car."
Song Chen: "Okay, you guys eat."
She didn't act clingy and spoiled like usual, but calmly accepted the result. Lin Lu felt it was strange, but didn't delve into it or think too much about it.
Song Chen hung up the phone and handed it to Yang Zhenhui, "Let's eat first, she has an appointment."
Yang Zhenhui: "Well, work is important, it's okay."
The food was already on the table. Song Chen picked up Lin Jingbei and sat him in his special child seat. He said softly, "It's time to eat."
Lin Jingbei looked out the door and asked with wide eyes, "Where's Mom?"
Song Chen: "She ate out today. Can we pick her up later?"
"Okay." Lin Jingbei hadn't seen Lin Lu today and missed her very much, so he clapped his hands and agreed.
Song Chen patted his head and said, "Then eat your meal obediently."
Maybe he was in a bad mood, Song Chen cooked for the whole afternoon, but no one ate much.
Song Chen said, "Mom, please pack up. I'll take the kids to pick up Lulu."
Yang Zhenhui: "Leave Xiaobei at home. I'll look after him."
Song Chen wanted to stir up trouble: "It's okay, it's cool outside, it's good to take him out for some fresh air."
"Okay."
Song Chen did not rush out, but went back to his room to dress up. Every time he changed his clothes, he would ask his son how he looked and whether he was handsome.
Lin Jingbei had seen his mother dress up his father, and he had his own ideas. He actually helped his father put together a super handsome outfit.
After his dad was dressed, he didn't want to be left behind, so he ran back to his room happily, took out his favorite clothes, and asked his dad to help him put them on.
After spraying on perfume, the father and son went out looking handsome.
Then he took Lin Jingbei for a walk in the mall, and then went to the flower shop to pick up flowers, ninety-nine roses.
Thinking it was about time, he sent a message to Lin Lu: "My son and I are here to pick you up."
A few minutes later, Lin Lu replied, "Come on."
"Let's go, Lin Jingbei."
What Lin Lu saw was Song Chen holding a child, and the child holding flowers. Both of them smiled at her, one calling her "wife" and the other calling her "mom".
Lin Lu walked towards them and asked, "Why did you buy flowers?"
Apparently, he completely forgot about his wedding anniversary.
Song Chen said to his son resentfully, "Give your mother a hint."
Lin Jingbei said slowly: "Today is the day when mom and dad are getting married, did mom forget?"
Lin Lu suddenly understood.
No wonder.
"You've been back for a long time." A hint of apology remained in my heart.
Song Chen: "What do you think?" He puts her first in everything, but she is different. When she is busy with work, it is the first thing in her heart.
Lin Jingbei spoke up for his father: "Dad cooked a whole afternoon of dinner, a full banquet."
Lin Lu felt even more guilty: "Sorry, I'll make it up to you tomorrow."
Song Chen leaned over while holding the child, and turned his right cheek towards her: "Then let's take some interest first."
Lin Lu knew what he meant when he heard this. Lin Jingbei also knew it and struggled to say, "I want one too."
In their family, interest is equivalent to a kiss.
Lin Lu looked around. There were people coming and going at the entrance of the hotel. She was shy and only kissed Lin Jingbei. As for Song Chen, she said, "You owe it to me."
Lin Jingbei, who received a kiss from his mother, was very proud of himself towards his father.
Lin Lu: "Let's go, I'll introduce you to my colleagues."
Song Chen: Finally, they are willing to take me out.
Just this little trick coaxed her into submission, "Okay."
Lin Lu returned to the box with her husband and son. As soon as they opened the door, the eyes of her colleagues inside were all cast on the three of them.
Everyone joked, "Oh, no wonder Lulu never let us meet him. It turns out his brother-in-law is so handsome. Lulu, you eat really well."
"Exactly, Lulu, are you afraid that we'll snatch it away from you? You've been married for so long but you've still been hiding it and not letting your brother-in-law show up."
Lin Lu smiled and followed their words and answered, "That's right."
Lin Jingbei was dissatisfied and complained to the uncles and aunts present: "Come on, I'm handsome too, why are you only praising my dad?"
"Ha ha ha ha"
"Yes, yes, what's your name?"
Lin Jingbei is already good-looking, and he chose a set of denim overalls for himself and wore a pair of lensless frames. He was so adorable that everyone wanted to pinch his face.
He was not stage-shy and had a sweet tongue, which made everyone very happy.
Lin Lu's teacher was curious: "Xiao Lin, you usually don't talk much, so how come your son is so lively and so good at coaxing people?"
Lin Lu said helplessly: "He learned it from his father."
Everyone looked at Song Chen, who just smiled and didn't say much: Not really.
When Lin Lu came to the firm, she was the youngest. Although she got married and had children early, everyone treated her as a younger sister.
Naturally, I would look at the girl's significant other with some scrutiny.
After Song Chen held Lin Jingbei and sat next to Lin Lu, he introduced himself directly, including his occupation, name, age, and his childhood sweetheart relationship with Lin Lu.
No one made things difficult for him. After a few simple questions, they stopped asking questions and let him have dinner with them, and the conversation passed.
Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Lu said goodbye.
Lin Jingbei dozed off after an hour of excitement. Song Chen held his little head in his arms and gently wiped the sweat off his head. He was very skilled in taking care of the child.
He stood up and helped Lin Lu pick up the bag with his right hand. The three of them went to pay the bill and then went home.
The child fell asleep, and the two spoke in low voices. The evening breeze was gentle, time was gentle, and they were also gentle.
Lin Jingbei was dreaming sweet dreams in his father's arms.
For the missed wedding anniversary, Lin Lu went home and personally compensated Song Chen with double the interest.
