"No problem." Xia An replied, it was also agreed in the contract, but she still needed some time to adapt to the sudden additional identity.
The wind has picked up, the night is slightly cool, and summer has passed quietly.
After hanging up the phone, Xia An put the phone back into his pocket and quickened his pace.
"She's my girlfriend."
"My girlfriend doesn't need you to take care of her."
…
While walking, Xia An thought about everything he had encountered in the past half month, which was incredible.
Xia An originally didn't believe in fate at all, but now she suddenly does. It's as if she and Ye Jin were destined to pretend to be each other's partner from the first time they met.
"Mom, who wants to move into our house?" Ye Jin just hung up the phone, and Ye Wan immediately stepped forward and asked, looking unhappy, "I don't want strangers living in our house..."
Even though Ye Wan sometimes acts like a brat, she is actually more introverted and even timid than other children. She never likes to interact with strangers, so Ye Jin was surprised that Ye Wan and Xia An could be so intimate after they had only met twice.
Maybe the eyesight is really subtle.
Ye Jin put down her phone, looked at the chubby little face in front of her, and said deliberately, "If you don't like it, then mom won't let Aunt Xiao Xia live here."
When Ye Wan heard that Aunt Xiaoxia was coming, she didn't believe it at first. After thinking for a moment, she smiled so hard that she couldn't close her mouth. "Is it Aunt Xiaoxia who is coming to live in our house? Mom, are you lying to me?"
Bar……"
"Mom didn't lie to you." Just as he and Ye Jin expected, when she heard that Xia An was moving here, Ye Wan was so happy that she smiled so much that she almost danced.
After feeling happy for a while, Ye Wan held Ye Jin's arm and asked seriously, as if she was trying to verify something extremely important, "Mom, Aunt Xiaoxia is your girlfriend, right?"
Ye Wan is still obsessed with this question. She was not satisfied because she didn't get a positive answer last time.
At such a young age, he still talked about his girlfriend. Ye Jin hugged Ye Wan, pinched her cheek, and asked, "Little guy, who taught you this?"
"Tell Wanwan first, is Aunt Xiaoxia your girlfriend?" Ye Wan said, feeling more and more sure.
The children's eyes are full of expectation.
Ye Jin looked at Ye Wan for a moment, nodded in recognition, and said seriously, "She is mom's girlfriend. Mom will have someone to accompany her from now on, so there is no need to worry about Wan Wan."
The bright smile on Ye Wan's face became even bigger, "Grandma didn't lie to me. Grandma even made a bet with me that Aunt Xiaoxia must be your girlfriend."
Ye Jin was helpless, what were the old and the young discussing...
But speaking of it, this finally solves the old lady's knot. Even if it's just a lie, at least it can save the old lady from any regrets.
"Great! Mom has a girlfriend. Mom won't have to be alone in the future..." Ye Wan became happier and happier as she talked. She was so happy that she was a little incoherent. Her wish was finally fulfilled, "I have two mothers~"
"Yes, Wanwan has two mothers." Ye Jin listened and felt in her heart. She originally just wanted to fulfill the old lady's wish, but she didn't expect Ye Wan to be so happy.
"When are you going to pick up Xiaoxia's mother?" Ye Wan urged.
In less than a minute, Ye Wan changed her name from aunt to mother, and screamed very naturally, as if she had planned it in her heart for a long time.
Ye Jin touched Ye Wan's head and said, "If you obey and go to bed early, I will take her home early."
"Okay~ I'm going to sleep now." Ye Wan immediately pulled away the quilt, got into the bed and lay down. She didn't clamor for a story. Regardless of whether she was sleepy or not, she closed her eyes forcefully and stayed quiet and obedient.
Ye Jin sat on the bedside for a while, and for the first time she saw such joy on the little guy's face. Even when he closed his eyes and slept, the corners of his lips were raised.
It is a cruel thing to give people hope and then have them fail. Especially for an innocent child.
Ye Jin lowered his head and stroked Ye Wan's hair, thoughtfully, two years later, will it be another kind of harm to the little guy?
There are always many helplessness in life, big or small.
On Friday night, when Ye Jin saw Xia An in the hospital, she was even more haggard than the previous few days. Although she was wearing makeup, there were faint circles under her eyes.
Twenty-three years old, he is a graduate student at a medical university. His father is seriously ill and he is financially strapped. This is Ye Jin's understanding of Xia An, that's all, not much.
Similarly, Xia An didn't know Ye Jin very well. He was thirty-two years old, a senior executive in the company, and a typical career queen with a successful career.
On the tenth floor of the inpatient department, Xia An stopped in Room 1007 and looked at Ye Jin beside him, "We're here."
The day before Xia Hexian was admitted to the warehouse for transplantation, he finally got his wish and met the "girlfriend" Xia An said.
Xia An walked into the ward holding Ye Jin's arm, as loving as a real couple, "Dad, this is Ye Jin."
"Uncle, I am Xia An's girlfriend..."
The two of them have pretended several times, and now they are almost pretending to have a tacit understanding.
Looking at the middle-aged man who was bedridden and tortured by chemotherapy, Ye Jin could suddenly intuitively feel Xia An's difficulties. It was really difficult for a girl who had not graduated to bear all this.
"You are..." Xia He first looked at the person in front of him, so unbelievable that he could not speak. Such a person was actually his daughter's girlfriend?
Looking at Xia's father's reaction, Xia An knew how satisfied her father was. After all, it would be hard to be dissatisfied with a high-quality partner like Mr. Ye if you only pick one out of a hundred.
Xia He didn't talk much at first. He only asked a few questions of concern and then became quiet. But he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He really was worrying blindly. His daughter's vision was many times better than his, and the person he was dating was not only
Mature, beautiful, and successful in career.
No wonder he has always rejected Tang Zhen.
Thinking of this, Xia He first felt at ease. He knew his daughter. With Xia'an's temper, she would never rely on others easily. Now that she sees someone who is willing to rely on her, it shows that she really likes her. "Girl, we are dating."
It's a good thing, you should have told me earlier."
"It's not too late to tell."
Xia Hexian looked at Ye Jin again. He was not good at words and almost tried his best to hold back his words, "Girl, I'm not very good at talking. The situation in our family... Thank you. Thanks to your help, Xiao An can
Eat less hardship. This child grew up through hardship, and it’s all my fault. You don’t know that she started working out to earn money to support her family when she was twelve years old. What do you think a twelve-year-old child can understand...
"
There was sadness hidden in his tone.
"Dad, why are you talking about this?" Xia An quickly interrupted Xia Hexian. She had never mentioned these things to outsiders. She didn't want to mention them, let alone exchange them for others' comfort.
Many things will pass as long as you get through them. There is nothing to be sad about.
Twelve years old……
Hearing this, Ye Jin looked calm and glanced at Xia An unconsciously. When he smiled, he looked like the years are peaceful, but it does not mean that the years are really peaceful.
The more some people laugh, the more distressed they become.
"This child has such a temper. She has been strong since she was a child. She has to bear everything by herself. No matter how hard she is, she keeps it in her heart." Xia Hexian continued to say to Ye Jin, "Uncle, I hope you can take more care of her.
"
No matter how hard it was, she kept it in her heart without saying anything, but Ye Jin could see this.
Xia An emphasized again, "I haven't already told you. She is very good to me and takes good care of me. You don't need to explain."
"Just treat her with peace of mind," Ye Jin turned to look at Xia An and said softly, "It is my duty to take care of her."
After listening to these words and meeting Ye Jin's eyes, Xia An was a little distracted in a trance, but he soon woke up to the reality. It was just a joke.
"That's good, that's good..." Hearing Ye Jin's words, Xia He almost burst into tears, "With your words, I feel relieved."
No matter how much Xia An said, they could not compare to Ye Jin's words.
"Lao Xia, you should be able to prepare for the operation with peace of mind this time, right?"
"Hey, Dad is relieved..." Xia Hexian smiled honestly, "I am in good spirits now and can take care of myself, so you don't have to worry about me."
Xia An was relieved to see Xia Hexian in such good condition. Furthermore, he would no longer worry about marrying Tang Zhen.
Ten minutes later, the two left the ward.
Ye Jin was about to go home, and Xia An was also going back to school, and they happened to enter the same elevator.
Just the two of them.
"Why do you say I paid for the surgery?" Ye Jin asked in the quiet and small space.
Xia An leaned against the elevator wall, put her hands in her pockets, looked at her and Ye Jin's figures in the mirror, and said tiredly and helplessly, "I can't say that I earned it by working part-time in a nightclub. My dad's character...
I was so angry when I found out."
The elevator descends at a constant speed.
"Where are your other family members?" Ye Jin couldn't help but ask when she saw that Xia An was alone.
Xia An lowered his head and was silent for a short time, then smiled lightly and said, "I am a single-parent family, just me and my dad."
Ye Jin didn't ask any more questions.
The elevator reaches the first floor.
After getting out of the elevator, Ye Jin looked at Xia An's thin body and tired face, and unknowingly thought of the scene when he held her in his arms that night, as if he was holding a skeleton in his arms.
"To be strong is not to show off." Ye Jin glanced at Xia An and said suddenly.
Before Xia An had time to figure out what Ye Jin meant, she heard the other person say, "Don't forget Sunday night."
"I remember." Xia An knew that Ye Jin was going to Ye's house for dinner on Sunday night. She knew without thinking that she was introducing herself to her family and talking about marriage.
Before Ye Jin turned around and left, she thought for a moment and said to Xia An, "Call me when the time comes and I'll pick you up."
"Mr. Ye, wait for me." After saying that, Xia An ran to the vending machine nearby.
Ye Jin looked at what Xia An was buying.
"Mr. Ye, you can bring this to Wanwan." Half a minute later, Xia An handed Ye Jin the orange juice she had bought for Ye Wan before. "Tell her, I will go there in two days."
Play with her."
Ye Jin lowered her head and looked at the orange juice in her hand, thinking that the little one would be happy again tonight. In the past few days, Ye Wan kept asking Xiaoxia's mother in her ear, and she never stopped.
"You don't have to call me Mr. Ye from now on."
"What's that called?" Xia An hesitated for a moment, then maybe her brain suddenly twitched, and she blurted out, "Wife?"
