Zhou Jiyun paused, then his eyes lit up little by little, as if they were filled with starlight. He said nothing, just looking down at Xie Jing, like a well-behaved dog waiting for its master's reward.
Xie Jing was burned by his eyes. She quickly looked away and didn't dare to look Zhou Jiyun in the eye. She just kissed Zhou Jiyun's index finger joint silently: "Okay, kiss."
After she finished speaking, she opened the driver's door. She had already fastened her seat belt, but the man was still standing there stupidly, staring at his index finger in a daze, looking a little silly.
Xie Jing pursed her lips. To ease her embarrassment, she rolled down the car window and spoke in a deliberately cold voice, "Aren't you going back yet? Aren't you tired after flying for more than ten hours?"
"I was tired before, but now I'm not tired at all." Zhou Jiyun came back to his senses. He quickly walked around to the other side, opened the car door and got in: "Jingjing, I'm really happy."
Xie Jing wrinkled her nose and tried hard to suppress her embarrassment, "Look at the road, don't look at me."
Zhou Jiyun looked at the front of the car as he was told: "Do you know what I was thinking just now?"
Xie Jing's ears turned red, but she didn't say anything. She knew that if Zhou Jiyun really wanted to say something, he would say it himself without her asking.
Soon, Zhou Jiyun spoke up, "At that moment, I remembered when my parents took me camping, a butterfly suddenly landed on the back of my hand."
"At that time, I was so cautious that I didn't even dare to breathe loudly, for fear of scaring it away, but it eventually flew away. The feeling I had just now was very similar to that time, even more nervous than then. I suddenly understood the unbearable lightness of life."
Xie Jing understood what Zhou Jiyun said. Only then did she realize that Zhou Jiyun had so many insecurities in his heart: "That butterfly only stayed in your life for a short time, but I am not a butterfly, I am your wife."
Zhou Jiyun's tone rose a little: "So you will always be here?"
Xie Jing said without hesitation: "Well, didn't we say it when we got married? As long as you don't let your mind wander and remain honest and sincere, I won't abandon you."
Zhou Jiyun's thoughts couldn't help but wander to his and Xie Jing's past lives. There was clearly no third person involved in their marriage, but they just weren't honest with each other.
He was overly concerned, while Xie Jing was too defensive and rarely opened up. Because of this, the misunderstandings between him and Xie Jing grew, and in the end, someone with ulterior motives took advantage of them.
Therefore, honesty is really important in marriage.
Thinking about this, Zhou Jiyun could no longer bear the fatigue and fell asleep in the passenger seat. Xie Jing glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, silently turned up the temperature in the car, and drove more steadily.
Even though Zhou Jiyun had gone on a business trip just as Diandian and Dali arrived home, the two little ones still remembered him. Or perhaps it was because the house was filled with Zhou Jiyun's presence that the two little ones were very friendly to him.
Especially Dali. When Zhou Jiyun was assembling a cat bed for it, Dali sat on his shoulder and meowed from time to time, looking quite proud.
Xie Jing watched this scene, smiled and shook her head. Before, when it was just her and Dali Diandian at home, the house felt very quiet. But now that Zhou Jiyun was back, she felt like the house suddenly had more people around.
Especially since there was someone to do the manual labor she wasn't good at, someone to handle the packages she couldn't carry, and he could also provide emotional value. Thinking about it this way, having a man at home wasn't bad.
Xie Jing had only half of the cat climbing frame installed, but the remaining part was too high, hitting the ceiling, and she had no way to stop it. Zhou Jiyun walked around Xie Jing's half-finished product, stared at the blueprint for a long time, and then began to dismantle it decisively.
Dali meowed unhappily. She was already familiar with the meow, so why did he tear it apart?
Zhou Jiyun said softly: "It's too high, some parts are installed incorrectly."
Dali jumped off Zhou Jiyun's shoulder and trotted all the way to the kitchen, meowing as if he was going to complain to Xie Jing. Zhou Jiyun shook his head and touched Diandian who was lying next to him: "You are still steady."
Dali entered the kitchen and meowed at Xie Jing. Xie Jing was confused and turned off the stove and went to the living room: "What's wrong?"
Zhou Jiyun put his fist to his lips and coughed lightly: "Well, Dali is a little angry when he sees that I want to dismantle its cat bed. It's a small matter. I will definitely put it back together."
Xie Jing understood. She bent down and picked up Dali: "Okay, you go ahead and do your work. I'll take Dali to the kitchen. Diandian, do you want to come?"
Diandian lay down on the ground, proving with his actions that he wanted to stay with Zhou Jiyun. Zhou Jiyun was in a very good mood: "Good dog, I'll take you out for a walk tonight."
"Don't go out today," Xie Jing stopped her, "Your eyes are bloodshot. Get some rest tonight and take Diandian out for a walk tomorrow morning. Diandian can't run yet, so she can only walk slowly."
Zhou Jiyun raised his eyebrows: "Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll go for a walk with Diandian tomorrow morning."
After talking to Zhou Jiyun for a few words, Xie Jing carried Dali into the kitchen. Dali squatted on the kitchen counter this time, staring at the fish in Xie Jing's hands, licking his mouth from time to time, with a greedy look on his face.
In the living room, Zhou Jiyun would occasionally glance at the kitchen while assembling the cat bed. His brows suddenly furrowed slightly. He married Xie Jing because he wanted her to be happy, not to have her busy in the kitchen.
How about hiring an aunt? Xie Jing seemed to have an aunt in the Xie family who took special care of her... Thinking about this, without delaying Zhou Jiyun's progress, until before dinner, Dali's luxurious cat bed was finally assembled.
In addition to the cat bed, there are also various cat climbing frames fixed on the wall, which are enough to satisfy Dali's parkour desire.
"Jingjing, I want to discuss something with you." When entering the kitchen to wash his hands, Zhou Jiyun began to sound out Xie Jing's attitude.
"Huh? What's the matter?" Xie Jing looked at Zhou Jiyun, then stirred the thick soup in the pot.
"You have to study and cook for yourself every day, which is too tiring. Let's hire an aunt. She will only help with cooking, not live at home, and we'll have a part-time helper for housework."
Xie Jing thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. Actually, I wanted to tell you about this, too. Aunt Li was the aunt who took good care of me when I was at the Xie family..."
Zhou Jiyun understood. In the previous life, it was Aunt Yun who came to the family later. Xie Jing probably didn't have the chance to mention it at that time. Now everything is starting over. If Xie Jing has someone familiar around her, it will make her feel more at home.
"If Aunt Li is willing, I have no objection." Zhou Jiyun wiped his hands and said, "Do you want my help?"
"No, it's ready," Xie Jing turned off the stove. "Then I'll ask Aunt Li what she thinks."
"Okay, by the way, did you say that He Shiyu's sudden appearance this afternoon was Xie Wuyou's doing?" Zhou Jiyun suddenly said, "We need to teach Xie Wuyou a lesson."
