Zhou Cheng came out of the ward, a little surprised who would take care of An An, and asked the nurse. When he went outside An An's ward, he unexpectedly saw someone there.
Yu Hannian.
He knew about Yu Hannian's existence, but before that, he had never connected An An and Yu Hannian.
Thinking about it, he opened the door and went in.
Yu Hannian glanced at him indifferently. Zhou Cheng first made sure An An was fine before having time to look at the man.
"Look at the children and try not to drink."
"If you don't go see your brother, what are you doing here?"
Zhou Cheng pulled up a chair and sat down, speaking as quietly as possible, "You also know what happened to my elder brother."
Yu Hannian had very little desire to talk to him, and even thought he was noisy, but sometimes the more people don't get something, the more they want something. Wherever Zhou Cheng goes, he is not flattered by others, so how can he be happy to be ignored like this?
.
He curled his lips and said, "I originally wanted to tell you a little bit about my brother and sister-in-law, but since you don't want to hear it-"
Yu Hannian raised his eyes.
Zhou Cheng's mood suddenly became a little low, and he suddenly asked, "If you had not been in a car accident three years ago, wouldn't my brother have married Sister Qian Qing?"
"No ifs."
This is something Yu Hannian learned from Gu Qianqing. She told him more than once that there is no turning back in life, so no matter how wishful thinking he continues, it is a fact that Gu Qianqing and Zhou Quan are married now.
Every time he thinks about this, he feels uncomfortable.
"I know." Zhou Cheng was very sure, as if there was some conclusion that supported his idea, "They will not get married because Sister Qian Qing was still pregnant at that time."
Yu Hannian was suddenly shocked.
Zhou Cheng smiled faintly, "So at that time Sister Qian Qing's child was yours, right?"
"how do you know?"
"I'm sorry." Zhou Cheng knew that he shouldn't mention this matter again, but he felt that he should still apologize to Yu Hannian, "If I hadn't taken Sister Qian Qing to the temple to pray for blessings at that time, Sister Qian Qing would have
Nothing will happen."
Yu Hannian finally understood that it was not Gu Qianqing who did not want their child on purpose, but that he had misunderstood her so much. Yu Hannian felt intense regret in his heart and wanted to rush to Gu Qianqing right now.
"I can see that Sister Qian Qing still cares about you, but that's all."
After all, Zhou Cheng is a member of the Zhou family and will not stand on Yu Hannian's side. Everything he says and does is based on the interests of the Zhou family.
"Sister Qian Qing is a very good person. Some people may never meet another person in their lifetime, so if you miss her, you will miss her. There will be a better person by her side."
Yu Hannian glanced at him with some displeasure. The matter between him and Gu Qianqing did not need a child's evaluation. He would do what he promised her, and he would take good care of An An, but it was absolutely impossible to give up on Gu Qianqing.
.
Gu Qianqing took care of Zhou Quan until late at night. After watching him sleep, she gently walked out of the ward to see An An. The little guy woke up and was crying. Yu Hannian held him and walked around the ward. Under the soft light,
The man's profile is gentle and patient, and the years have always made him more mature.
Gu Qianqing did not go in and quietly returned to Zhou Quan's ward.
"Why did you wake up?"
Gu Qianqing saw Zhou Quan reaching for the tea cup and immediately handed it to his hand. Zhou Quan pressed his temple and said, "My head hurts. Why aren't you asleep yet?"
"Just fell asleep."
Gu Qianqing made the bed next to him and turned off the ceiling light in the room, leaving only a wall lamp, which could also provide lighting. Zhou Quan slowly drank tea and asked, "Going to see An An?"
There is no mention of the people who take care of An An.
"Well, I'm a little worried. Mr. Zhou, is this matter almost over?"
Zhou Quan still had some pain in his chest, so he couldn't breathe vigorously and could only breathe slowly. However, his mood was always calm and he rarely got angry.
"It should be soon."
Zhou Quan looked at the little woman sitting on the hospital bed next to him. Even after so many years, her appearance had not changed much, but her smile was much less.
Are some things really not something that can be forced?
"Qian Qing, when these things are over, let's go out for a walk."
Gu Qianqing was a little surprised, but she still nodded and said yes.
A week later, Zhou Quan completely recovered and was discharged from the hospital. However, after a hundred days of straining his muscles and bones, the chest injury still had to heal slowly. Therefore, people below could often see Zhou Quan just after the meeting, and Gu Qian over there
Qing came over with a tonic soup.
Everyone envies the couple's good relationship.
On New Year's Eve, the Zhou family had a rare celebration. Zhou Rong drank some wine, raised his glass and looked at Zhou Quan, "I knew my son would always have a way to silence arrogant people."
The year-long civil war over the position ended, and Zhou Quan took that position without any suspense. Now he is the real talker in Beicheng. From now on, the Zhou family's position in Beicheng will never be shaken.
Just as Zhou Quan was about to raise his glass, Gu Qianqing said softly, "It's better to drink less wine."
Zhou Rong smiled and said, "Look, I have forgotten that Xiaoquan's health is not fully recovered yet. Just listen to Qian Qing and stop drinking."
"I drink tea instead of wine."
Zhou Quan said.
The family drinks wine, and the tea drinkers drink tea.
Zhou Rong and Zhou's father were happy tonight. The couple went out to drink. Gu Qianqing was sitting on the steps of the corridor watching the fireworks in the sky. Even though she was hiding outside and was almost frozen like a dog, Gu Qianqing still didn't want to move.
At one point, I just looked at the horizon quietly.
"Why don't you go into the house?"
Zhou Quan was standing behind her, he must have been here for a while.
"The room is a bit stuffy."
Although Zhou Quan didn't drink, Gu Qianqing drank some. Zhou Rong was particularly happy tonight. She had a good drinking capacity. Except for Zhou Quan, Gu Qianqing and Zhou Cheng were all led to drink a little by her. Now Zhou's father was attracted by her.
After being pulled, Gu Qianqing had the opportunity to run outside and enjoy the wind. However, after drinking and seeing the wind, it is easy to get drunk.
Zhou Quan looked at her, his cheeks were a little rosy, and his eyes were much gentler than usual. He sat there like a rose in the wind. Zhou Quan couldn't help but lean down and kiss her.
Gu Qianqing was startled and subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but Zhou Quan seemed to have predicted her actions and restrained the back of her head, preventing her from moving and deepening the kiss.
"Mr. Zhou."
Gu Qianqing stepped back a little, finally out of the danger zone. Zhou Quan sat down on the ground like her, "Qian Qing, we are husband and wife."
Gu Qianqing said, "I'm just a little uncomfortable with it."
Zhou Quan did not pursue the matter further. He probably did not want to talk about it at this time. "My mother asked me just now why An An didn't come back. I told her that you left him at a friend's house."
Gu Qianqing hasn't told Zhou Quan about letting Yu Hannian take An An away completely. How can I put it? It seems that no matter how I say it, I can't hide the fact that Yu Hannian is An An's biological father. Otherwise, why would she give up the child?
Leave it to Yu Hannian.
"Well, I'll find a chance to explain to her."
Zhou Quan held her hand. It was a cold night and the cold wind was blowing. There was no warmth in his hand, but when he held it, he could generate more warmth.
"I will tell her that she can go out for a walk after the Lantern Festival. Can you arrange your work?"
"Can."
…
Before the Lantern Festival, Yu Hannian brought An An to say goodbye to her. The little guy was wearing a furry coat with rabbit ears. He looked very cute. After meeting Gu Qianqing, he wanted to hug her.
While the little guy was still happy to see his mother again, Gu Qianqing was already sad about the upcoming separation.
Gu Qianqing didn't know when they would be able to meet again after this separation, so she hugged him reluctantly.
"Mom, kiss."
Now that he could speak some simple words, Gu Qianqing's heart felt unusually soft, and she pinched his little cheek, "An'an, follow... Dad, you have to be obedient, you know? Don't be picky about food, and sleep well."
As he said this, Gu Qianqing had the urge to burst into tears. Yu Hannian stood aside and said nothing. It was almost time, so he reminded the mother and son.
Maybe he finally felt his mother's sadness belatedly, or maybe he realized that he was about to be separated from his mother. The little guy burst into tears and hugged Gu Qianqing's neck tightly without letting go, with tears streaming down his face.
.
Yu Hannian came over and took An An out of Gu Qianqing's arms. In an instant, the little guy cried even louder. It would be no exaggeration to say that it was heartbreaking. Gu Qianqing was tortured every time he looked at her.
"We'll call you when we get there."
Yu Hannian carefully wiped An An's tears and said to Gu Qianqing.
Gu Qianqing turned away, not daring to look. Only when she heard the sound of the car starting did she dare to turn around slowly, raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and raised her face.
…
In the car, Yu Hannian looked at the little guy who was still crying.
"Stop crying, mom will be back."
An An seemed to be able to understand his words. She looked in the direction of the adults with tearful eyes and sniffed. She was so pitiful when she thought about it. When her mother was with her, her father was not there. Now that her father is by her side, again
I can't be with my mother anymore.
The little guy tugged on his sleeve, wanting to hear his assurance. It was a special understanding between father and son, and Yu Hannian easily understood what he meant.
"Be obedient and dad will bring mom back."
"when?"
The little guy lowered his eyelashes and didn't want to be separated from his mother at all. Now he just wanted his mother to return to him as soon as possible, preferably in the shortest possible time.
"I don't know either."
An An's mouth dropped and she was about to cry again.
"It's useless for you to cry if she's not here."
Yu Hannian grabbed his throat and stuck him in the middle. Although the little guy didn't cry loudly, he still shed tears. His eyes were like a small spring.
Endless.
"Your mother seems to be going out to play after the New Year. Her attitude will be crucial at that time. Whether she will come back to us will be decided after that, so do you know what you have to do now?"
The little guy looked at him in confusion, his big eyes flickering, as if he was asking what it was.
"Practice speaking, and if it goes well, you can talk to her. If she misses us, she will definitely come back."
The little guy knows how difficult this task is, but in order for his mother to live with them as soon as possible, he will definitely practice hard.
…
Before Gu Qianqing and Zhou Quan left, Zhou Rong specially held her hand and asked her to have some fun with Zhou Quan and relax. Of course, it would be better if she brought back some good news when she came back.
Gu Qianqing smiled and didn't know how to deal with such a thing. Zhou Quan put his arm around Gu Qianqing's shoulders and said, "This time, I will just relax and leave the family affairs to you."
Not only did Gu Qianqing sleep while on the plane, but even when she arrived at a hotel in a tourist attraction, the first thing Gu Qianqing did when she landed back at the hotel was to sleep.
She is a little uncomfortable with the climate here.
When I woke up, I saw a missed call on my phone. It was from Yu Hannian.
After thinking about it, she called back. Unexpectedly, it was An An who answered the phone. When the little guy's face was revealed, Gu Qianqing's fatigue disappeared and was replaced by joy.
"An An, were you the one who answered the previous phone call?"
He nodded, "I miss you."
Gu Qianqing smiled, almost with tears, "Mom also wants to be safe."
She wanted to go back immediately and return to him. She originally wanted to let Yu Hannian take An An away, and she had no contact with An An anymore, but now she found that she simply couldn't do it.
That was the child she gave birth to in her ten-month pregnancy. How could she treat him as if he didn't exist?
"When will we live together?"
He spoke in a low voice, intermittently, and Gu Qianqing's heart seemed to be hit hard. She thought that as time went by, as long as she reduced the frequency of appearing in front of An An, children would have memories.
It won't last long, he will be forgotten as time goes by, and he will become closer to Yu Hannian who takes care of him.
But after six or seven months, when the little guy saw her again, not only was he not unfamiliar at all, but he was very dependent on her. That kind of careful dependence made Gu Qianqing very sad.
Only abandoned children would be so afraid of being abandoned again, but she still let An An down, and she chose to give up again.
"I'm sorry, An An." Gu Qianqing was a little afraid to say to him, "Is it okay for An An to live with her father in the future?"
But the little guy cried immediately. It was not the kind of howling, but suppressed, and he just kept crying. Gu Qianqing just wanted to go over there and comfort him through the phone.
"An'an, where's your dad? Can you please let him answer the phone? He and I have something to talk about."
Gu Qianqing could only hope that Yu Hannian could comfort the little guy, otherwise it would be very hard on his eyes if he kept crying like this. The screen flipped, and Gu Qianqing saw Yu Hannian, with bright red scratches flashing past.
, Gu Qianqing still didn’t miss it and asked directly.
"What's the matter with the injury on your face?"
It looked like it was scratched by fingernails, and there was some wet blood next to it.
