Her steps were nailed to the spot.
That is a red coat.
Even from a distance, she saw the woman in the store wearing it, walking out from behind the counter and taking things from the shelves.
It is a long red coat.
So, was it the coat that had been lingering in her mind for weeks, grabbing her heart every time she told herself not to be suspicious, but also pulling at her heart in her dreams at midnight?
At such a distance, she couldn't see the woman's appearance clearly.
But her heart was already in a knot, and her steps were moving forward uncontrollably.
How she wished that this was just a stranger who just happened to be wearing a red coat.
She would rather the red coat that Wu Tianjiao mentioned remain a mystery forever and not let her know the answer.
However, when she saw the face of the woman in the red coat clearly, she even regretted coming here today. She should have listened to Gu Youlian and remitted the money to Lao Zheng. Why did she come to the store?
Because she saw clearly that the woman was actually Chen Xia.
If it was anyone else, she would not doubt that the dress was bought by Gu Juncheng.
It had to be her.
She stood in a hidden place, looking at Chen Xia silently.
Watch her give milk powder to customers and watch her collect the money.
Chen Xia is actually a salesperson in this store?
When did it start?
Also, why does Chen Xia work in this store?
The answer is obvious.
The only connection between Chen Xia and Lao Zheng's store is Gu Juncheng.
She stood in a secluded place outside the store for a long time. If Chen Xia hadn't been walking around in the store, she would have felt that time had stopped at a moment.
"Girl, you're standing here, blocking me from unloading."
This reminder woke Lin Qingping up from his still state.
She stood behind a truck in front of two stores past the dairy store, and indeed blocked people from unloading goods for a long time.
"I'm sorry." She said softly, suddenly feeling bored.
She turned around and prepared to cross the road and take the bus back.
However, at this moment, she saw a man standing across the street, and it seemed that he was about to come over.
She flashed quickly and hid herself completely behind the truck.
Oh, Gu Juncheng is here...
She estimated the time it would take Gu Juncheng to cross the road, and thought it was about time, so she leaned her head out from behind the truck to take a look, only to see that Gu Juncheng had already arrived at the door of Lao Zheng's store.
Chen Xia ran out to greet him with a smile on her face.
"Brother Chengzi! I knew you would come today!" Chen Xia said with a smile.
Lin Qingping's heart sank.
Today is Saturday, so I knew it would come today. Does that mean it has become a pattern?
So he comes here every weekend when he doesn't go home?
Lin Qingping found it very ironic. She could never guess when he would come home because she never asked too many questions. Knowing the special nature of his job, she was always very sensible and never asked, urged or inquired.
Chen Xia turned around and took out a paper bag from behind the counter. He opened it and found a piece of donkey rolls stuffed with jujube paste inside.
Chen Xia handed it to him, "Brother Chengzi, this is delicious. I'll give it to you."
"You keep it for yourself, I don't need it," he said.
"Here you go!" She wrapped up the donkey roll and forced it into his hands.
Lin Qingping couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
She turned around and left in a hurry. Chen Xia's voice was still ringing behind her, "Brother Chengzi, shall we go eat? I've been waiting for you!"
Lin Qingping heard the coquettish tone in Chen Xia's voice and felt as uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly. She wanted to cover her ears and walk faster.
She didn't know how she got home, she was in a daze.
Sister Zhao had prepared the meal at home and was about to take it to the store to give to Gu Youlian. When she saw her, she smiled and said, "That's perfect. I also said to let the two little ones keep themselves company and be careful."
Lin Qingping nodded, "You go."
Lin Qingping didn't want to show any abnormality in front of the children, but when she looked at Zhiyuan and Xiaomai, her heart suddenly ached again. If she and Gu Juncheng couldn't make it to the end, Zhiyuan would no longer belong to her in the future...
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Zhiyuan found that she had been looking at him.
Lin Qingping smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm a little tired today. I'll take a shower and rest for a while."
"Aren't you going to eat?" Zhiyuan looked at her worriedly.
"I've eaten outside." In fact, she had no appetite at all, but she didn't want Zhiyuan to worry, "You and Xiaomai can have fun after you finish eating!"
After giving the instructions, she went upstairs.
After taking a shower and lying on the bed, how can I feel sleepy?
I just want to find a place to stay by myself.
However, as she lay there, the scene of Chen Xia in red clothes smiling at him kept replaying in her mind. She covered her eyes and found that she had already shed tears without knowing when.
There was a sudden noise downstairs, a man's voice, and it sounded like Gu Juncheng had returned!
She listened carefully and found that it was indeed him, talking to Zhiyuan.
"Is your mother not back yet?" he asked.
"He's back. He said he was tired and is sleeping." Zhiyuan said.
Then, there was the sound of his footsteps going up the stairs.
Lin Qingping couldn't help but tense up all over.
"Dad, don't you want to eat?" Zhiyuan asked loudly as he was already going upstairs.
"I have eaten."
Lin Qingping: ...You ate with Chen Xia, right?
As he spoke, his footsteps stopped at the door of the room.
Lin Qingping closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.
As soon as the door opened, he came in. Lin Qingping's eyelids couldn't help but tremble slightly, and her hands under the quilt subconsciously grabbed the edge of her pajamas.
He walked in, stood beside the bed, and looked at her quietly.
Lin Qingping didn't know what he was looking at. He looked at it for a long, long time, so long that she really couldn't pretend any longer and had to move...
Just when she couldn't bear it anymore and was about to pretend to turn over, he moved.
She heard him open the cupboard door and go out.
Probably went to take a shower.
She opened her eyes and heard Zhiyuan shouting from below, "Dad, what did you put on the table?"
He hadn't even entered the bathroom when he heard Zhiyuan shouting, and answered him, "Donkey rolls, you guys eat."
Donkey rolling!
Chen Xia rolled over on his donkey!
Lin Qingping's heart ached. Although this matter had nothing to do with Zhiyuan, if Zhiyuan wanted to eat, she would rush downstairs to stop him at all costs.
Isn’t it enough that he meets Chen Xia outside?
She would never allow Chen Xia's things to come home!
As soon as she sat up, she heard Zhiyuan say "Oh", "I don't want to eat it anymore, it sticks to my teeth."
Lin Qingping stopped walking and lay back on the bed. Zhiyuan had started to change his teeth, and one of his teeth was loose. When he ate sticky food, it would stick to his tooth and it would hurt. She was planning to take a leave on Monday to take him to the hospital to have it extracted.
After lying down again, she faced a new problem: how to face Gu Juncheng later?
Ask directly?
She suddenly discovered that she had a weakness in her rebirth.
Moreover, this weakness is even more fatal than in the previous life.
