Chapter 47 The Weight of Love

Chapter 47 The Weight of Love (1)
The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching.

It was rush hour, and Lin Miao was stuck on the road. He was on a video call on his mobile phone, and saw Chen Yingheng, a child on the other side of the screen, crying out of breath, with red eyes like rabbits. Crying to see my mother.Lin Miao looked at the long queue of cars in front of the windshield, and thought about it for a while. It's not too far from the kindergarten. Maybe she walked over faster than waiting for the traffic to pass.Distraught, she simply paid the driver, grabbed her bag and got out of the car, shuttled through the motionless traffic to the other end of the road.Today is the day before the holiday, she should have picked up the child earlier, but there is a temporary emergency in the studio, so she got off work late.

Lin Miao trotted all the way to the intersection, and was almost hit by a car before he could catch his breath. Fortunately, the other car stopped the car in time, and Lin Miao clutched his chest in shock.In order to make herself look more mature, she deliberately tied her long hair up into a bun, and wore a pair of glasses without lenses, but her delicate face was still very young.

The black car stopped, and Lin Miao took a closer look, only to see a familiar feeling. Sure enough, the car opened after a while, and a handsome man walked out from inside.

Chen Jizhen walked towards Lin Miao quickly, looked her up and down, and then asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?"

Lin Miao was stunned for a while, then took a step back and said in a detached tone, "Why are you here?"

Chen Jizhen insisted on refusing to divorce, but they had an agreement, and they didn't see each other very often in the past few years.Lin Miao had struggled, resisted and remained silent, but finally compromised, and there was indeed no better solution. The last time we met was on Heng Heng's birthday.The sharpness and resentment of the past were smoothed and dissipated after she had Hengheng. Maybe she hated Chen Jiti's dominance, but he was right to insist on having a child.

In fact, she couldn't be willing to give up, because Hengheng became braver and stronger because she became a mother.

After she gave birth to Hengheng, Chen Jizhen went back to China first, while she took the child and continued her studies in Basel. She did not come back until she graduated last year, and Hengheng also went to kindergarten here.He would go to see the child occasionally, and sometimes he would take him with him for a while. She didn't understand why it was unimaginable for someone as strict as him to spoil Hengheng, and her daughter was so spoiled by him. side.Because his daughter didn't like it, he had to change kindergartens, and this was already the third one.

"The teacher said that the child has been crying, and I just came over when I was nearby." Chen Jizhen said it simply, and he was not unhappy because of her abrupt question.

Lin Miao's heart became even more confused when she heard it. After her daughter came back, she has not been used to life in China, so she didn't say anything, and hurried to the garden gate.From a distance, I saw the teacher standing at the door holding the child's hand.

"Heng Heng!"

"Mom!" The little girl was still crying, but when she heard her mother's voice, she immediately threw off the teacher's hand, ran over on the legs of a baby elephant, threw herself into Lin Miao's arms, twisted and acted coquettishly.

Lin Miao's well-fitting light-colored suit was ruined by her just like that.

Lin Miao took her daughter's hand to apologize to the teacher, and asked her why the child was crying. The reason given by the teacher made Lin Miao feel embarrassed and could not laugh or cry.In the dance class in the afternoon, after Chen Yingheng's child changed into her dance clothes, a precocious boy joked that she was so fat that her belly protruded.Chen Yingheng insists that she is not fat at all, but she speaks Chinese, English and German, and her pronunciation is childish and substandard, and she cries when her classmates push her into a hurry.When she cried at home, everyone coaxed her like a little ancestor, but it was different in kindergarten.

Lin Miao felt a headache, so she nodded her daughter's forehead angrily and amusedly, pretending to frowned and said, "I told you not to eat so much chocolate! My classmate is right, you are a little piggy!"

"Mom is bad, I'm not a pig!" The little girl Chen Yingheng stopped crying, hid behind her mother, and snorted coquettishly.

She suddenly shouted again excitedly: "Dad!"

Only then did the teacher see the tall man standing behind them, dressed in a black suit, as if he was a nobleman walking out of a certain banquet hall.It was the first time she saw Chen Yingheng's father, and her mother had been picking him up all the time, so she was inevitably curious, and couldn't help but take another look.Not only is my mother beautiful, but my father is even more pleasing to the eye.No wonder Hengheng looks so good, like a doll.Because the child cried for too long and the child's mother was stuck in traffic again, she had no choice but to call her father.

Chen Yingheng's chubby body was easily picked up by him at once, and after kissing her, he said, "You're being naughty again, aren't you?" Was there any tone of reproach?
Unconvinced, Chen Yingheng pouted and said, "They are naughty! Dad, I don't like coming here!"

"Why don't you like it again? You promised Dad to be obedient before."

She hugged Chen Jizhen's neck tightly, she was still young and couldn't explain why, but felt wronged: "Father, you haven't come to see Hengheng for a long time."

Chen Jizhen felt sore, subconsciously carried the child and walked towards his parking place, and said as he walked, "Dad is on a business trip, and I bought you a lot of fun things."

"Really?" Chen Yingheng's two rows of fan-like long eyelashes moved, and his pink cheeks were not to mention very attractive.

Chen Jizhen wiped away her tears and snot with his fingers, he didn't dislike her at all, and his tone was quite doting: "Of course it's true." He turned his face away as he spoke.

Chen Yingheng already had a tacit understanding between father and daughter, so she gave her father a big kiss and said happily: "Hengheng loves father the most!"

Lin Miao, who fell behind their father and daughter, was startled, said goodbye to the teacher who was also dumbfounded, and then chased after her.She reached out to take the child, but Chen Jizhen took a deep look, and the daughter refused to let her hug her: "No, I want Dad to hug me!"

Lin Miao looked at Chen Jizhen's attire and the car he was using today, and said softly, "You should have dinner at night, right? I'll just take it home with you, Hengheng."

"Any entertainment is not as important as Hengheng." Chen Jizhen glanced slightly, and gently put the child into the trunk.

Lin Miao took a look. The driver didn't know when the safety seat was installed.

Heng Heng didn't cry, but stretched out his little hand and excitedly tickled her: "Mom, come here!"

"Do you want to follow Dad?" Lin Miao stood still.

The little girl Chen Yingheng didn't know what choice was, she just nodded according to the child's nature, grabbed the new doll handed to her by her father and said, "Well, mom and dad are together!" The children around her are all mom and dad together .

Hengheng's eyes look like her father's. Many times Lin Miao and his daughter have the illusion that they are looking at Chen Jizhen, but the child is still young, so he doesn't know how heavy the word "together" is. may not be able to achieve.Looking at Chen Jizhen again, he didn't sit in the car, but just held his daughter's restless little hand and remained silent.He is waiting for her decision.

"Mom still has work." Lin Miao pursed her lips and tried to explain in words the child could understand, "Didn't you say you wanted to go to grandpa's house last night? Let Dad take you back, and Mom will pick you up tomorrow."

Lin Miao never stopped her child from seeing people from the Chen family. The blood relationship cannot be broken. It is okay if more people love the child. No matter how big the grievances are, the child cannot be burdened. But she has never been to the Chen family.Chen Baoyue went to the United States for treatment. It is said that she was crazy. Sending that recording to Lin Miao was her last madness.Chen Jizhen's mother also went there and didn't come back often. Only his father was at home, and he was very kind to Hengheng, the little granddaughter.

As for her parents who knew they were married, she didn't plan to tell them the rest. Later, when Hengheng was born, they became more open-minded. They only said that they had to see the child every month, or they had to find coming.She will come back also because her parents are here.

Lin Miao put the schoolbag in the car and kissed her daughter on the cheek again: "You have to be obedient."

Disappointment flashed through the depths of Chen Jizhen's eyes. He thought that for the sake of the child, she would at least go to have a meal together.

"It won't delay you for long." He looked at Lin Miao and said softly.

The father and daughter looked at him with identical eyes. Lin Miao couldn't take it anymore, so she turned her face away and said firmly, "No, Brother Jiang and the others are having dinner tonight. I promised it a long time ago. It's just right that you didn't socialize. It's on your behalf." If you live there or send it back, please give me a call."

"Okay." I don't know why, these two words are so helpless that people feel sad.

Lin Miao didn't look back.

Chen Yingheng pursed her mouth and asked unhappily: "Is mom angry with me?" Every time my mother was angry with her, she would have that expression, although she still didn't quite understand what anger was.Children are actually very sensitive.

Chen Jizhen sighed in his heart, before they were in Switzerland, he could bear not to see them because they were far apart, but now that they were by his side, his mind moved again.But Lin Miao, who is easy to soften his heart, is very hard-hearted.But as long as she is still Mrs. Chen and Hengheng's mother, he still has a chance. He has been waiting.

"Mom isn't angry with Heng Heng, she is angry with Dad."

"Why? Is Dad not good?" Hengheng reached out and touched his father's face.

The child's skin was soft and warm, Chen Jizhen's heart warmed, and a smile finally appeared on his brows and eyes: "Because Dad did something wrong."

"Then just kiss mom, dad is stupid." She did this every time she made mom angry.

Chen Jizhen smiled, and admitted almost inaudibly: "Yeah, Dad is really stupid." Otherwise, it wouldn't be what it is now.

The taxi driver asked Lin Miao twice before she reported an address in a daze, which was the place where Jiang Hang and the others had dinner.

After graduation, Ann successfully joined Chen Jizhen's company in Switzerland as a researcher.On the other hand, after graduation, Lin Miao was not sure which direction she would go, whether to pursue classical music or pop music, literature or business?Later, Jiang Hang invited her back to help again, and she didn't think about it any more, and went back to the studio without hesitation.

Because the three-day Mid-Autumn Festival will start tomorrow, Jiang Hang, the boss, will be the host. When Lin Miao arrives, the small hot pot is hot, and everyone has already started eating.When the old colleague sound engineer saw Lin Miao beckoning her to come over quickly, she had already said that she might not be free, so they still reserved a place beside Jiang Hang.

"I thought you wouldn't come, why didn't you bring Hengheng?" Jiang Hang smiled and opened the seat for her.The thought of that little girl calling herself "Uncle Jiang" sweetly would melt even the coldest ice.

Lin Miao thanked her and sat down, and said in a low voice, "I went to play at her grandfather's house." They spoke very quietly, everyone knew that Lin Miao came back from studying abroad, but few people knew about her having a daughter.Because Hengheng's father is Chen Jitang, Lin Miao doesn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.

Jiang Hang nodded: "It's the first time you celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival after returning to China. Do you want to go back to your hometown?"

"My parents will come over." Lin Miao smiled.

"Let's eat something quickly, they won't be able to sit still later."

Jiang Hang was right, they yelled to go to KTV again after dinner, Lin Miao was brought back even if she wanted to sneak away, she doesn't sing, she guessed dice for a while with some good colleagues, and drank two glasses Beer, even though it's autumn, I'm still sweating while sitting in the box.At this time, the mobile phone that had been in her pocket vibrated. She took it out and looked at it before walking to a quieter place in the corridor.Chen Jizhen sent her a picture, Hengheng was holding a cake in his hands, eating like a naughty little cat, smiling all over his face, he seemed to be having a good time.It didn't take long for the call to come in, and it was still Chen Jiting.

He originally wanted the child to listen to the phone, but when he heard the noisy voice, he first asked, "Where are you?"

"I'm still getting together with my colleagues." Lin Miao didn't say much, but asked instead, "Where's Heng Heng?"

The people over there didn't say any more, and soon heard the little girl's cheerful shout: "Mom! Mom!"

"Hengheng, what are you doing?"

"Grandpa bought me a cake!" Heng Heng still had his mouth full of cake when he spoke, full of childishness.

Lin Miao was helpless: "Then are you obedient?"

"Well, I'm very good! Isn't that right, Dad?" Chen Yingheng looked at his father "seriously".

Chen Jizhen stroked her hair, and then said into the microphone: "Yeah, Hengheng is not naughty, but I have to go to bed after eating the cake, do you want me to pick you up?" Hearing that she looked like she was in an entertainment venue, he remembered I saw the scene when I reunited with her for the first time, I didn't like that feeling very much, and I was a little worried about her.

But Lin Miao refused: "No, you can take Hengheng with you tonight. My parents will come tomorrow. I'll pick her up after I settle them down."

Although they were separated, they were not divorced after all, so there was no such thing as the so-called custody of the child. It seemed that Chen Jizhen didn't want to argue with her, he only had one point, as long as he wanted to see the child, she couldn't refuse, and it wasn't too much.

On the other end of the phone, Chen Jizhen was silent for a while, and then gave a soft "hmm".

Chen Jizhen had just told the second story when Hengheng was already fast asleep. He touched his daughter's little face and couldn't help but kiss it.It is said that Hengheng resembles him, but in fact it is most normal for a daughter to resemble her father, but he can see Lin Miao's shadow everywhere, with her curved eyebrows, high nose, small mouth... She used to be there The place within reach of his hands has now become the most familiar stranger.

After tucking the quilt for the child, he sat on the edge of the bed for a while before walking out lightly.His father was still awake, and he was reading Go records in the living room. When he saw him coming downstairs, he waved and said, "Come and play a game with me."

Chen's father has aged a lot in the past few years, his hair is almost completely white, and he has never touched the company's affairs again.And what happened back then is a sensitive topic that no one wants to bring up.

The appearance of Hengheng gave Father Chen a great sense of satisfaction, he wished to see the child day and night.

As soon as Chen Jizhen sat down, he asked: "Hengheng is asleep? It's cold at night, did you add a quilt for her?"

"I remember, she slept well." Chen Jizhen's voice did not fluctuate, he and his father had always been in this way, so he doted on Hengheng very much, and he didn't want his daughter to have such a sense of isolation from him.

Father Chen gave birth to a son and said, "Spend your holidays here?"

Chen Jizhen shook his head: "I'll send her back tomorrow."

With a sound of "click", Father Chen threw the white piece he was reading back into the chess box, and said in disapproval, "You don't have that much ability? Why can't my granddaughter of the Chen family celebrate the festival here?"

Originally, Chen Jizhen was not in the mood to play chess, and his tone was a little impatient: "This has nothing to do with ability, why did it become like this, don't you understand?"

"Since she has entered the Chen family's door, we will not treat her badly."

Chen Jizhen pursed his lips: "We have treated her badly."

Father Chen had nothing to say for a while.No one knows better than him why his old wife and daughter went abroad. Healing a disease is one thing, but daring to face it is another.Who would have thought that the truth would be like this?
He only found out about the child last year, or because Lu Yi had slipped up and Chen Jizhen couldn't hide it, so he brought Hengheng to him.

"The medical expenses that their family paid successively in the early years, I have already asked people to return them." Father Chen thought for a long time before finding out this sentence.They didn't need the money at first, but they thought it was "atonement" at the beginning, so they took it for granted when it was sent, and the old wife has that kind of character.

Chen Jizhen whispered: "Dad, I want to keep them by my side more than you. If there is a way, I will do it."

Chen's father sighed heavily. The sharpness of being in the shopping mall in the early years has disappeared, and the old man loomed. After thinking about it, he said: "Your Uncle Xu wants to invite you to drink tea..."

"Just go." Chen Jizhen interrupted him, not intending to continue this topic.

Xu Aiyi...he didn't even want to mention it, let alone let her appear in front of him again.

Jiang Hang sent Lin Miao home, yes, her own home.
