Zhong Qing tried to persuade her, "It's cold, adults can stand it, but children may not be able to."
The Zhong family lives in a wealthy area, and the nearest bus stop is a ten-minute walk away.
“If we don’t let our children suffer now, the world will make them suffer even more when they grow up.”
After saying that, Shen Mingzhu picked up her daughter and turned away.
Pei Yang said a simple goodbye to Zhong Qing and Yan Yi, then took his son's hand and quickly followed Shen Mingzhu's pace.
"Give me the fruit."
Shen Mingzhu was not polite and turned around and handed her daughter to Pei Yang.
A one and a half year old baby is much heavier than when she was just born. Plus, she is wearing so many clothes that it is really hard to carry her around.
Perhaps she was a little sleepy. Guoguo leaned her little head quietly and obediently on her father's shoulder. Her long eyelashes blinked like a small fan and her cheeks were a little red from the cold.
Shen Mingzhu felt distressed and a little guilty.
There is no need for her to be so stubborn. She won't die if she takes a ride in the Zhong family's car.
As if sensing her annoyance, Pei Yang untied half of his scarf and wrapped it around his daughter's head, then said to her, "Let's go. It's only a few steps away, and we'll be at the station soon."
Shen Mingzhu nodded, took Pei Ziheng's hand and continued to move forward.
"Did you have a fight with Zhong Qing?"
The atmosphere was not right during the meal. Zhong Qing kept greeting them, but Shen Mingzhu responded coldly without saying a word. What she said just now was not polite at all.
Seeing Shen Mingzhu was silent, Pei Yang did not ask any more questions and changed the topic to something else.
In front of the Zhong family.
It was not until the backs of the family of four disappeared into the night that Zhong Qing put away her disappointment and turned to thank Yan Yi: "Thank you for your trouble today."
"Not really. This is my job."
The two are in a partnership, and maintaining the dignity of an engaged couple in front of each other's relatives and friends is also part of the content of the cooperation.
Zhong Qing didn't say much, "If you're not in a hurry to go home, come in and have a drink."
Yan Yi nodded.
"Try it."
Looking at the steaming milk tea on the table, Yan Yi instinctively refused, "I don't like sweet drinks."
Zhong Qing took a sip from the cup and said, "I didn't like it before, but after drinking it a few times, I gradually started to like it."
Compared to milk tea, Yan Yi was obviously more concerned about what went wrong between her and Shen Mingzhu.
"Did you have any unpleasantness when you were upstairs?"
"Yeah, but this is my fault. I didn't handle it well. She has the right to be angry with me."
"She is a kind woman. People like her usually have a common problem, which is that they are soft-hearted."
Zhong Qing smiled, "Thank you, I know what to do now."
Seeing that it was getting late, Yan Yi stood up and said goodbye.
Zhong Qing sent him out, and when they got to the door, she suddenly said, "Actually, Mingzhu taught me how to make the milk tea just now. She said that when you're in a bad mood, drink sweet milk tea, and you'll feel better after drinking it."
"After drinking the milk tea and getting your advice, I feel much better now."
Yan Yi paused: It’s too late for him to go back and drink now.
…
Shen Mingzhu lay on her side on the bed, patting her daughter's body rhythmically with her hands and humming a lullaby.
Pei Yang came to the bedside and saw that his daughter was already asleep. He bent down and wanted to carry her to the crib, but Shen Mingzhu reached out and slapped him away.
"I finally managed to coax her to sleep, please don't wake her up."
I don’t know if it was because I caught a cold when I went out today, but I wasn’t feeling well. After I got home, I started whining and making a fuss, and it took me only a short while to coax me to sleep.
Seeing Pei Yang sitting on the bed, Shen Mingzhu said to him, "You go sleep next door tonight. Guoguo and I will sleep together."
Of course Pei Yang refused. Who wants to sleep alone in the middle of winter?
"Let Guoguo sleep with Ziheng."
"She's not my wife."
After saying that, without waiting for Shen Mingzhu's reaction, he picked up his daughter and walked out.
Seeing that her daughter did not cry, Shen Mingzhu followed him.
A few minutes later, Pei Yang returned to the room happily, jumped onto the bed, slid his tall body into the quilt, and hugged her with his hands and feet, with excitement on his face.
"Are you still unhappy? Tell me, why are you two arguing?"
Shen Mingzhu didn't want to say it at first, after all, the matter had already passed. But she couldn't resist Pei Yang's repeated questioning, and she couldn't hold it in and told the whole story.
After saying this, she felt relieved, but Pei Yang became sulky.
I was angry that she didn't tell him about such an important thing.
Shen Mingzhu patiently explained, "I wanted to tell you that night, but I got a call saying Qingqing was admitted to the hospital, so I didn't have time."
"What do you mean it's too late? Why is it too late? Couldn't you tell me on the way to the hospital? Well, just assume that you were too worried about Zhong Qing to care about it. We've been sleeping in the same bed for so many days. When could you not tell me?"

"How can I tell you something I'm not sure about myself?"
Pei Yang asked angrily, "What does her mother want to do?"
"have no idea."
"How could you not know? Are you stupid? You didn't even know who she was, but you followed her to eat. Aren't you afraid that she would sell you out?"
"I'm not a worm in her stomach. If I had known that she had ill intentions, would I have gone with her?"
The air gradually became filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Shen Mingzhu was already in a bad mood, and the bastard added fuel to the fire by arguing with her, making her so angry that a surge of rage rushed to her head.
She gathered the quilt and pushed the person out, "Go sleep next door!"
"This is also my room. I'm going to sleep here."
As he spoke, he tried to grab the quilt from her, and the two of them started playing tug-of-war on the bed.
Pei Yang is tall and strong, so Shen Mingzhu naturally cannot snatch him away.
"If you don't go, I will!"
She threw the quilt on the man, turned around, got out of bed and prepared to go to the next room.
However, after taking only two steps, Pei Yang grabbed her and pulled her back onto the bed.
"Let go!"
"I was wrong, wife."
Shen Mingzhu was so angry that she didn't want to listen to it. Seeing that she couldn't pry open the man's hands around her waist, she tried to kick him. As a result, her legs were clamped by the man as soon as she stretched them out.
"I'm sorry. I was wrong."
Pei Yang whispered in her ear: "You have to think about me too. I was so scared when I heard about this. I was afraid that you would be bullied."
"If anything happened to you, I don't know what I would do."
Shen Mingzhu gradually calmed down.
The two of them just hugged each other quietly, their breathing sounds intertwined with each other.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Mingzhu broke the silence and said, "It's over now. Qingqing has promised me that something like this won't happen again."
"You should also be more careful and don't follow people you don't know well."
"knew."
Suddenly, there was a sound of firecrackers outside the window.
The annual Spring Festival is approaching again.
Shen Mingzhu turned around and hugged the man, pressing her face against his hot chest.
"Let's spend New Year's Eve outside this year."
Pei Yang hugged her soft body tightly, his eyes showing tenderness, "Okay, I'll do as you say." (End of this chapter)
