Dating After Divorce
Chapter 36:
The word 'dad' is both unfamiliar and familiar to Ning Baobao.
Unfamiliar because Ning Rou never took the initiative to tell her about 'father'; familiar because almost every uncle and aunt who had just met her would ask her the question Luo Fanxing was asking now.
Who is 'Dad', she doesn't know.
The little head thought for a while, and she said the same rhetoric that Ning Rou used to deal with outsiders—
"Dad and mom got divorced~"
"Baby's father is not here, far away~"
divorce?
How can such a young child understand the meaning of divorce?
Ning Baobao must have learned these two sentences from Ning Rou.
Luo Fanxing pursed his lips, and there was some shame in his eyes.
It's not very appropriate to seek the truth from such a young child who doesn't know anything.
She didn't plan to ask any further, just got up when there was a slight footstep behind her, and when she turned to look back, she saw Jiang Rong walking towards the dining table with the dishes.
The food is still made by the chef invited from the sea market.
In a few minutes, a small round table was covered with dishes and soup bowls. There were eight dishes in total, including meat and pastries. The dishes on which the dishes were loaded were very small. Whether they were dishes or plates, they looked very delicate.
Although the portion looks small, it is definitely enough for two adults and one child.
Luo Fanxing stared at the small, sweet and tempting pieces of sesame puff pastry in the round plate, always feeling familiar.
This crispy cake seems to be the most famous restaurant in Haishi - Dianyuwan's signature dessert.
Jiang Rong saw her confusion and couldn't help sighing.
"It's made by the master of Dian Yuwan."
"Mr. Luo said that Miss Ning used to like to eat this."
As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Zhen came out of the study with a stack of documents in his hand.
Jiang Rong didn't dare to chat anymore, and disappeared quickly after taking the document.
In a blink of an eye, there were only three people left in the front hall.
Luo Zhen prepared tableware and chopsticks for children in advance. Ning Baobao used it very well and didn't need adults to worry at all.
Luo Fanxing was eating, raising his eyes from time to time to observe the quiet little girl across from him.
Unexpectedly, she really found a new doubt.
Ning Baobao's gesture of holding chopsticks is not particularly elegant.
When she picks vegetables with chopsticks, her thumb holds the outside of the chopsticks, and her middle finger, ring finger, and little finger hold the bottom of the chopsticks in turn. With only these four fingers, she can control the chopsticks stably, except for the extra ones. His index finger, like there was nowhere to put it, was bent over the chopsticks, very abrupt and redundant.
In Luo Zhenting's words, it's 'holding chopsticks like this, going out to make jokes, and losing the face of the Luo family! No girly look at all! ’
Luo Fanxing remembered that when he first entered the Luo family, Luo Zhen also liked to hold chopsticks like this. Because of this, Luo Zhenting always used chopsticks to hit Luo Zhen's fingers every time he was eating.
It was not until later that his wrist was injured that Luo Zhen broke this habit.
Thinking of Luo Zhen back then, and looking at Ning Baobao in front of him, Luo Fanxing felt more and more that there was some kind of connection between the two.
But she dared not say it.
At least not yet.
She turned her head and glanced at Luo Zhen quietly, only then did she realize that Luo Zhen was also staring at Ning Baobao's hand holding the chopsticks, and there was confusion and surprise on his cold face.
Obviously, Luo Zhen also realized that Ning Baobao had another similarity with himself.
One similarity is a coincidence, what about the two?
Luo Zhen frowned slightly, and in his ears, Luo Fanxing's murmur that day unknowingly sounded again——
Is there such a coincidence?
She can't guarantee it now.
After the meal was over, it was already three o'clock.
During the period, Luo Fanxing received another sketch sent by Xu Yinuo, and before opening it, he smirked at the phone.
She wanted to reply to the news, so she searched dozens of rainbow farts in her mind and waited to blow it to Xu Yinuo, but Luo Zhen was still sitting beside her while she was eating.
She only dared to look at this phone, not to touch it.
It wasn't until the food on the table was removed that she finally opened the chat box.
As I typed, my cheeks were red, and there was a happy smile in my eyes.
A whole state of chatting with a lover.
Luo Zhen saw her appearance in his eyes, and his face was full of helplessness. After hesitating for a while, he went to the table and tapped lightly with his white knuckles on the table.
"Come with me."
The woman's voice still sounded cold.
These simple four words made Luo Fanxing's heart tremble fiercely.
For Luo Zhen, she is still mostly afraid.
She raised her head and looked, Luo Zhen was standing in front of her, Ning Baobao sat on the massage machine and played with her own. As for Jiang Rong, she went to the counter to deal with the work.
Before she had time, Luo Zhen had already turned around, pushed open the door and walked out of the store.
The temperature outside is thirty-seven degrees.
Luo Fanxing stood in the shadow of the corner, her head was slightly lowered, her back was against the hot red wall, the phone was tightly held in her hand, and she didn't even dare to breathe, like someone who was called out by the dean of education to give lectures. primary school students.
Luo Zhen's red lips pursed lightly, her expression still always cold and arrogant.
Several minutes passed before he finally let go.
"Didn't you just break up with Chu Ning?"
"So soon, I found a new little boyfriend?"
With a slightly playful tone, Luo Fanxing blushed easily.
She still didn't dare to look up at Luo Zhen, her lips moved for a long time, but she didn't hold back a word.
There is no new boyfriend, she is just chatting with Xu Yinuo.
Luo Zhen lowered his eyes, his brows were slightly relieved, he didn't ask any more questions, and took the initiative to change the topic.
"Director Xu's call, have you received it?"
"What are your plans for what he said?"
Director Xu? ?
Luo Fanxing was shocked when he heard the sound, and this time he finally raised his head and looked at the beautiful woman in front of him with shock.
Xu Qingli, the dean of the third year of a high school, did call her last night and asked her if she would consider transferring.
Students in the first high school can be divided into arts and sciences in the second year of high school, and it has never happened before in the third year of high school.
She has never been interested in liberal arts, and Shen Rumei has no right to speak in Luo's family, so she can only watch her being forcibly sent to the liberal arts class by Luo Zhenting.
Although she was angry about this, she couldn't do anything about it.
She never thought that she would have the opportunity to transfer to another department until she received a call from Xu Qingli last night——
Xu Qingli gave her three options: one is to not transfer to a major, continue to study liberal arts and take the college entrance examination; the other is to transfer to a science class and spend the last year sprinting for review; the last method is to directly transfer to a school and transfer Go to the second high school in Haishi, the strongest science department, but in this way, you need to study for another year of high school.
After chatting with Xu Qingli last night, she received a call from Shen Rumei again, talking about this matter.
She thought it was an opportunity for Shen Rumei to ask Luo Zhenting, but she didn't expect that the person who really helped behind was actually Luo Zhen.
She was shocked, and more, surprised.
Luo Zhen never regarded her as a sister——
"It's been a night, haven't you thought about it yet?"
"The day after tomorrow, are you going to have a sea market?"
"Give me an answer before tomorrow night, no matter what you choose, I'll arrange it for you."
"A high school science teacher has a very high level. If you really like science, it may not be a bad thing to re-study for a year."
Luo Zhen gave his own advice from the perspective of someone who came here.
She knew what Luo Fanxing was shocked by, and after thinking about it, she still left an explanation before entering the store.
"You have helped me a lot during this time."
"As a newspaper, that's all."
Just report?
In order to get a chance to transfer to a major, behind the scenes, I don't know how much money I spent on management.
Luo Fanxing bit her lip, watching Luo Zhen's back disappear behind the glass door, she thought--
Luo Zhen should have accepted her sister a little bit now.
The three of them stayed in the store for another afternoon.
Ning Baobao had a great time playing with the massage machine. Sitting on it alone, he felt the rollers inside go up and down. From time to time, a few giggles came out.
Luo Zhen was afraid that she would fall, so she deliberately stood by her side.
As for Luo Fanxing, he stood with Jiang Rong again.
The discussion was, of course, what toy should I buy and put in the corner. I can't let Baby Ning play on the massage machine every time.
Before I knew it, it was 5:20 in the afternoon.
Counting the time, Ning Rou is about to get off work.
Luo Zhen was about to take Ning Baobao to Xiangcha Xuan when he received a call from Ning Rou.
It is said that there are a lot of guests, and I have to work overtime for half an hour.
Since it is overtime, there is extra pay.
Luo Zhen knew that Ning Rou didn't want to give up. Although she was distressed, she could only do it.
Ning Baobao was sitting on the massage machine, with the small humming sound of the machine running in his ears, and he couldn't hear what Luo Zhen was talking about.
She vaguely guessed that it was her mother who opened the phone, and when she saw Luo Zhen put down her phone, she took the initiative to stretch out her two small arms to Luo Zhen, wanting to get off the massage machine.
Jiang Rong watched, and immediately cut off the power of the massage machine.
By the time Luo Zhen took Ning Baobao into his arms, the small shop was quiet again.
"Auntie, are you going to pick up mom?"
The little girl's voice is always sweet.
Luo Zhen felt his neck being held by two soft little hands, and his eyes became much gentler unconsciously.
The tone of voice when speaking is also very gentle.
"Mom is working overtime today, and I'll pick up my mother later."
Hearing that Ning Rou was working overtime, Ning Baobao's eyes suddenly lit up.
Before Luo Zhen could react, the little man in his arms showed her a shallow, somewhat flattering smile, and what he said seemed to be pleading.
"Can Auntie bring the baby home now?"
"Baby wants to go get something."
"Once you've got something, let's go pick up mom, okay?"
take things?
Why are you suddenly going to get something?
Luo Zhen was a little confused, but Ning Baobao's eyes were too innocent and full of expectations.
She couldn't refuse.
Without any hesitation, she nodded.
"Okay."
Luo Fanxing also followed.
To pick up Ning Rou at night, it is definitely not enough to leave the bicycle in Xiangchaxuan, and someone has to ride it.
The speed of the car was fast, and it took less than fifteen minutes to arrive at the old home.
Luo Zhen carried Ning Baobao upstairs, and just after entering the house, Ning Baobao hid himself under the bed and took out the pocket money that he had saved for a whole year.
It's a small, cute piggy bank.
The most common one in binary stores.
There are not many coins in it, and it is not heavy to hold. When it is shaken, the sound of coins colliding is very loud.
Luo Zhen crouched down, thinking that Ning Baobao wanted to buy something with money, but unexpectedly, the other party stuffed the piggy bank into his arms.
"Auntie, the baby gave you all the pocket money. Don't tell your mother that the baby went to the hospital today, okay?"
"In the future, when the baby is rich, I will give it to my aunt, okay?"
Come to think of it, Ning Baobao is afraid that Ning Rou is worried about her own illness, and she is also afraid that Ning Rou is worried about money.
She doesn't have much money either. She saved the dozens of coins in the piggy bank for a whole year. It is definitely not enough to pay for today's medical treatment, but she is willing to leave all the pocket money in the future to her aunt. Aunt.
Luo Zhen never thought that Ning Baobao asked for home because of this.
She felt incredible.
At first, she only felt that Ning Rou loved Ning Baobao and gave everything for Ning Baobao; until now she found out that Ning Baobao also loves Ning Rou very much.
Two consecutive sentences of 'Okay', like a hammer, slammed **** her heart.
How could she hate Ning Baobao like this?
She didn't know what to say or how to react.
The piggy bank in her hand was very light, but it was so heavy that it was so heavy that she couldn't even stand up.
She couldn't refuse Ning Baobao's request, and couldn't ruthlessly kill a child's love and consideration for his mother.
Until she got in the car, her heart was still heavy.
Luo Fanxing sat in the co-pilot, not knowing what happened, and did not dare to ask.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, the car appeared on time at Donghui Street.
Luo Fanxing was the first to get out of the car, called Ning Rou out of the store, got the car keys, and rode the car away in three or two strokes.
Ning Rou stood at the door of the store, with hot sweat on her neck, her hair hanging loosely behind her shoulders, and she was still wearing the washed and wrinkled white short sleeves.
Not very pretty, but comfortable to wear.
The heavy pressure of life left her with no extra time, energy and money to dress herself up.
Luo Zhen put Ning Baobao down from his arms and got out of the car alone.
At this point, the customers in the store have already finished eating.
At the door of the tea restaurant, people push the door from time to time.
Ning Rou pursed her lips when she saw Luo Zhen getting out of the car.
She wanted to go in and take out her bag, but she couldn't move her legs.
In front of Luo Zhen, her legs were always out of her control.
The proprietress saw Luo Zhen in the store and thought the two were about to leave, so she took the initiative to send out Ning Rou's canvas bag.
Before Ning Rou reached out to pick it up, Luo Zhen had already taken the bag.
This bag is used for clothes, water bottles, and gadgets such as keys. You can buy a new one at the market for five yuan.
Because I go in and out of the restaurant every day, there will be some oil stains on the surface of the bag.
Ning Rou knew that Luo Zhen was always afraid of getting dirty, so she subconsciously brought the bag over.
Unexpectedly, her right hand was just raised, and before it touched the cloth bag, her wrist was pinched lightly.
Immediately afterwards, the woman's cold five fingers slid down her wrist, directly and naturally, clasping her hand in the opposite direction from the palm of her hand, holding it tightly in her hand.
like a pair of close lovers.
"dirty--"
Ning Rou was called out by Luo Fanxing, she didn't wash her hands, and her fingertips were still stained with a few drops of water for rinsing the bowl.
Her face was a little red, her eyes dropped, and when she spoke, her voice was so low that she could barely hear.
But Luo Zhen heard it.
"Not dirty."
Such a plain rebuttal tone made Ning Rou no longer dare to struggle.
Her hands did not move, but her head was buried low.
It was only six o'clock and it was still bright.
The customers in the store came out one after another. Luo Zhen didn't take Ning Rou into the car immediately, but only held Ning Rou's hand and took people to a corner where no one noticed.
The hands of the two were only released at this time.
A brief touch, a sudden separation.
Like their marriage.
Make people fall in love.
Ning Rou's hands are empty, and her heart is also empty.
She still didn't dare to look up at Luo Zhen.
The temperature around was a little high, the two stood close together, and when the wind blew, they could smell the aroma from Luo Zhen's body.
Her breathing was inexplicably rapid.
Just when he was at a loss, a word rang in his ear.
A word she never thought would come out of Luo Zhen's mouth——
"You taught the baby very well."
The woman's voice is clear, calm, and gentle, and the tone is also gentle and sincere.
Ning Rou could hear that this was a sincere compliment.
She raised her head, her gray pupils shone with a shallow layer of light under the sunlight, which was very beautiful, brighter than the stars in the night sky.
Before she could answer, she saw Luo Zhen's lips, let go again, and said another sentence, something she didn't dare to think in her dream—
"I don't seem to hate children so much anymore."
The author has something to say: Luo Zhen: Really fragrant
