Enchanting affair

After Zhou Rongkang left, I called Song Han, but it took him a long time to answer.I calmed down and said, "Didn't you say you came to pick me up when you're done?"

"Zhou Rongkang is going back to a meeting tonight and will see you off." Song Han was silent for a while before saying.

I haven't contacted them in the past two days in the country.On the way, Xia Ru called me and asked me where I was. She seemed to have something to say to me. I said I was with Zhou Rongkang, but she stopped talking and said that you can talk about it when you come back.

I don't know whether I should tell Song Han what happened today, and whether Zhou Rongkang became suspicious. I'm still hesitating. Song Han said he was in a meeting and we'll talk about it when he comes back.

I hurriedly said: "He knows!!"

Song Han asked: "Know what?"

Mengmeng was playing with her cousin in the yard, I was embarrassed to say so, I just said: "I don't know if he knows, can you come pick me up?"

"I don't have time, I'll talk about it later." Song Han hung up the phone.He never answers the phone during meetings, but it doesn't mean that I will be grateful to Dade if he answers once in a while, what should I do.

I walked over to Mengmeng, she and her cousin were studying how ants moved rice grains in the yard.This little girl is usually in the city, so she probably hasn't even seen ants before.I squatted down and played with them for a while, and taught her that ants nod with their tentacles to convey information. Mengmeng said, if I move the rice grains away, they can’t find the rice, will they blame it for lying to them? ?I said no, ants are not human.Mengmeng looked at me with clear eyes and said, "It's nice to be an ant."

I don't know how to explain it to her.She is eight years old and probably knows everything.Maybe don't understand anything.I lowered my head and poked the ants with a branch, and when I heard Zhou Rongkang came downstairs, he saw Mengmeng and I playing and said, "I'll go to the hot spring."

His tone was not affectionate, and I pretended to be still angry.Ignore him.Mengmeng said, "Dad, when are you coming back?" Zhou Rongkang left without saying a word.

I packed up my clothes and told Mengmeng to her aunt, saying that I was going out for a while.

Aunt Mengmeng actually said: "Rong Kang said that the neighborhood is not safe, and told you not to go out."

Damn, this is clearly putting me under house arrest.Did he not believe me at all and went back to investigate?I always feel very uneasy in my heart, I have to rush back.It's like a bird in a cage here, and Zhou Rongkang is in charge of how to flutter.

I said so, then I will go to the supermarket to buy something.

Aunt Mengmeng took my luggage and said that I will help you carry it upstairs.I watched her carry my luggage up. I was glad that my documents and money were in the small bag in my hand, and I was glad that I was going to the supermarket and not lying to her about going for a walk.

Mengmeng said, "Auntie, shall I go with you?"

I looked down at her, and said nonsense: "Your cousin just looked for you upstairs, and he found what you were looking for!" Mengmeng jumped up and asked if it was true?went upstairs.

I also hurried out.It was already evening, and the sky was overcast.I walked all the way out, thinking that there might be a bus over the hot spring, so I called a car to take me to the hot spring scenic spot.

When we arrived, it was actually raining heavily in the hot spring area.I got out of the car and arrived at the small station, only to realize that there were no cars at all after four o'clock in the afternoon. I could also go to a scenic hotel to stay for one night, but I thought the price would not be cheap.I don't have much money with me.

I was hiding from the rain at the small station and was hesitating when Zhou Rongkang called.

"We are going back now, where are you?" Zhou Rongkang asked.I heard Mengmeng's voice saying that I went to the supermarket, and I said, "I came to the hot spring area to find you."

Zhou Rongkang paused and said, then wait a while.I'll come pick you up right away.

Zhou Rongkang didn't doubt me anymore, maybe he doubted me at all, but I couldn't see it.I felt guilty and uneasy, and felt very awkward.

After getting in the car, Mengmeng had already curled up in the back seat and fell asleep. Zhou Rongkang was driving the car himself.He got out of the car and fixed Mengmeng with a seat belt.Then get into the driver's seat.

I said how about I hug her in the back seat.Zhou Rongkang glanced at me and said no.She's not clingy, she hasn't had a mother for a long time, and it's even better if she hasn't.

I lowered my head not knowing what to say.

Before starting the car, he said that you are a little wet, do you want to change a set of clothes?

I quickly waved my hand and said no, no, no.He smiled.Zhou Rongkang has such advantages.He seems to be very tolerant, no matter what he has done, even if he has just slept with another woman, or just questioned you, he can be very calm.You are always right.There will be no guilt.You can accept it and accept it, if you can't accept it, he won't force it.

The rain was pouring down outside the car window.The rain poured on the car window and was quickly thrown away.I stared out the window in a daze, and then slowly fell asleep.

Three or four hours' drive.After arriving in the city, Zhou Rongkang woke me up. I found that it was no longer raining in the city, and the car was still wet. We seemed to have traveled from another world.

He didn't say much, and took me home directly. I got out of the car and quickly said that you don't need to get out of the car. It's not safe for Mengmeng to be alone in the car.He nodded and drove away.

The house lights are on.I went in to change my shoes, and saw a strange middle-aged woman in very high-end clothes coming out of the kitchen.I look at her and she looks at me.

It was the woman who spoke by herself. Although her tone was not very good, she still made it clear that she was Gu Mingsu's mother.I think that is Song Han's stepmother.I called my aunt and went upstairs.Gu's mother muttered in the back that I was not well-bred.

I can't be bothered with her either.

While taking a shower, I heard the phone ringing, so I rushed out to answer it, but the ringing had already stopped.I looked at the number, it was Xia Ru.Dialing back, Xia Ru said, "Good news or bad news, which one do you listen to?"

I said, "Good news."

"You waited for me in that coffee shop last time, and I made an appointment for you." Xia Ru was in high spirits, and I asked her what was the matter, but she didn't tell me.

"Since you don't tell me the good news, let's try to listen to the bad news."

"That Christmas tree friend of yours works at Zhou Rongkang's company." Grapefruit has always been the word Christmas tree in her mouth.

"Oh, so what?"

"It's not good. Let me tell you. Zhou Rongkang has a vice president. I happened to see them coming out of the hotel yesterday."

"..."

"You come out first and then talk."

Xia Ru and I made an appointment at 09:30. I saw that it was still early. I thought I hadn’t bathed and fed the tortoise these days. I went to the kitchen to look for something and saw Gu’s mother busy in the kitchen, chicken soup was stewing on the gas stove. The water boiled against the lid of the earthen jar with a bang.I opened the refrigerator, took out a piece of frozen meat and cut it on the cutting board. Mother Gu said, "I'm going to the hospital to deliver chicken soup to Su Su, please help me peel these walnuts later, eat more during pregnancy Dried fruit is good for kids."

She used trouble, and her tone was completely commanding.Damn, I'm not a cleaner, I'm indeed a mother and daughter.

I rolled my eyes and ignored her.

Walking to the door of the kitchen, he suddenly reacted and asked, "Who do you think is pregnant?"

"Su Su."

Gu Mingsu is pregnant? !I froze in place, yes, she has been retching and retching at every turn these few days, I should have guessed it a long time ago.Maybe it's because my complexion is too ugly. Mother Gu took a look at me, put away the walnuts again, and said, "Forget it, I'll peel it myself when I come back. Girls nowadays are just too scheming. What if they think they can climb into other people's beds?" It's like this, it's normal for a man to be fickle, and most of us Song Han are posting up by women themselves. I thought I could outweigh the child in our Susu's belly!"

I lowered my head, put away the cut meat and went upstairs, and threw it into the fish tank.Neither turtle moved.I stared at it for a while, and found that there were a few shining stars in the sky outside the window.More than an hour ago, I was walking through the heavy rain, and I suddenly remembered an ancient poem, the sun rises in the east and rains in the west, and the road is sunny but sunny.

It's obviously none of my business, but I always feel empty and uncomfortable.

No matter how hard it is, you have to live on.I went out and waited until Xia Ru.She drove out by herself.I asked him where Zhang Yukun was, and she said she didn't know what Lu Yunsheng had assigned her to do.We went into the coffee shop and ordered coffee. Actually, I don't like coffee, it's bitter.I like sweet things.But the food was ordered by Xia Ru, I am not in the mood, and it doesn't matter what I drink.

I asked her, "Now is it time to announce your good news?"

In my impression, there are few such things as good news that are really good.

Xia Ru said: "The drawing you gave me last time, I helped you submit it to a magazine."

I stirred the dark coffee, lacking in interest: "The one through the back door? Can it be used?"

"Of course. But the back door is not everything. Don't be so discouraged. The magazine said that you can always draw some illustrations for them!"

"Really?! Is there a lot of money?"

Xia Ru glanced at me and said, you will find out after talking with the magazine.

I praised her from the bottom of my heart, Xia Ru shook her head: "It's not me who helps you. I just pass by."

"Who helped me?"

"I don't know. I was so busy that day that I forgot. I put your drawing on the table and didn't bring it back. It happened to be seen by a cooperative client, who thought it was me..."

"How could it be such a coincidence?" I was a little skeptical.

Xia Ru didn't know whether she was dissatisfied with my doubts or my mother-in-law. She threw the coffee spoon and said impatiently, "The editor will be here soon. Whether you want to see me or not is up to you."

"See! See!!" I quickly stopped talking, which is also very good.Getting a job is finally an opportunity to exercise.After a while, the editor of the magazine came, a handsome young man who was not very old.I was still sighing that this was the legendary editor, but the handsome guy seemed in a hurry, chatted casually, left each other a phone call, and then disappeared.

I took someone's business card and looked over it over and over again, overjoyed.Xia Ru refused to make me feel better: "Did you come back from the hospital just now?"

"I'm not sick, why should I go to the hospital!" I knew she was talking about Gu Mingsu, but I was still pretending to be stupid.
