Everyone grabbed something to eat and chatted while eating, occasionally glancing at the TV. Xu Rongrong looked sideways when he saw that Wen Shanshan and Bai Sheng were just sitting there smiling and not grabbing anything to eat.
Wen Shanshan is okay. She occasionally talks to A Nuan, and her smile is relatively happy and rare.
As for the smile at the corner of Bai Sheng's mouth, it became much lighter. Although it was not forced, he still felt a little lonely.
Xu Rongrong pursed his lips, leaned his head against Zhan Zhan's ear, and said softly, "I'll go over and take a look at Bai Sheng."
Zhan Yiyang raised his eyes, then pursed his lips and said nothing.
Xu Rongrong knew that he must not be happy, so he touched his hand comfortingly, and then continued to whisper in his ear,
Zhan Yiyang thought for a moment, and finally nodded reluctantly.
Xu Rongrong pursed his lips and walked to Bai Sheng's side without attracting everyone's attention.
Sitting next to Bai Sheng was Bai Yi. Xu Rongrong pushed Bai Yi to the right and sat down.
Bai Sheng looked at Xu Rongrong in surprise, then glanced at Zhan Yiyang, asking her to the effect, isn't your husband jealous?
Xu Rongrong smiled awkwardly. She knew that Zhan Yiyang was jealous, but she regarded Bai Sheng purely as a friend, and Zhan Yiyang believed in her, so she let her come over.
The most important thing is that Xu Rongrong was worried that Bai Sheng would think of Zhong Qiqi again and be in a bad mood, so she wanted to talk to him and enlighten him.
Thinking of this, Xu Rongrong reached out and grabbed a handful of dried fruit and stuffed it into Bai Sheng's hand. When Bai Sheng looked at her in surprise, he smiled and said, "Even if you're not hungry, you still have to keep up with the atmosphere and eat something."
Bar."
Bai Sheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly and took the dried fruit that Xu Rongrong grabbed.
I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but when he picked up the dried fruit, he picked it up with both hands and tried his best to avoid touching Xu Rongrong's hands.
Xu Rongrong was a little embarrassed, but didn't say anything, because it was necessary to avoid suspicion. After all, everyone with eyes could see that Bai Sheng had liked Xu Rongrong before.
However, Xu Rongrong always regards Bai Sheng as a friend in her heart. No matter where she comes from, Xu Rongrong does not want to lose contact with Bai Sheng. She really sincerely wants to be good friends with Bai Sheng, not only for Bai Yi, but also because of Bai Sheng.
People are worthy of friendship.
But since Zhong Qiqi disappeared, Bai Sheng suddenly fell silent. In the past, he always expressed his affection for Xu Rongrong vaguely, but since Zhong Qiqi's funeral, he stayed silent for two days before leaving the Zhan family.
, and has not appeared in front of Xu Rongrong since then.
If it weren't for the Chinese New Year, Xu Rongrong thought, maybe Bai Sheng still wouldn't show up.
Now, seeing Bai Sheng eating dried fruit in silence, Xu Rongrong felt a little embarrassed, but didn't know how to break the deadlock.
At this time, Bai Yi next to him stretched his head and glanced at Xu Rongrong with a smile, "What are you doing, mom?"
"Well, I'm talking to your brother." Xu Rongrong looked at his son who was about to become an adult, with emotion in his eyes, "My son has just grown up."
"Mom." Bai Yi was also keenly aware of the embarrassing emotions here, but he is a smart child himself, and he learned to remain calm during his time abroad, so he did not ask anything directly at this moment, but buried his head in Xu Rongrong's eyes.
On his shoulder, he said coquettishly, "Mom, Bai Sheng is Bai Yi's brother, and mom is Bai Yi's mother. So why should brother Bai Sheng call mom?"
After saying that, he still blinked and looked at Xu Rongrong very innocently.
Xu Rongrong's eyes widened, and he looked back at Bai Sheng helplessly. Seeing that he didn't show any unpleasant expression, he turned back and looked at Bai Yi's head. Although his movements were very light, he looked very scary.
"I'm asking you to talk nonsense. Could it be that Bai Sheng calls me aunt?" Although Xu Rongrong seemed to be lecturing her son, she also had a bad feeling when she said this. At the same time, she did not forget to raise her eyebrows deliberately.
In the direction of Bai Sheng.
As expected, Bai Sheng, who had always had an indifferent face, successfully twitched the corners of his mouth twice.
Seeing that Bai Sheng's mood finally jumped, Xu Rongrong couldn't help but smile and pat Bai Yi's head, then looked at Bai Sheng with a smile, "Today is New Year's Eve, it's better to be happy after all, don't always keep a straight face."
Bai Sheng reluctantly raised the corners of his mouth, then nodded, but did not speak.
When Xu Rongrong saw this, he knew that deep down he still had a grudge against Zhong Qiqi's death. After all, the girl had blocked the knife for him.
Xu Rongrong may not be without heartache, but she has done everything she can for Zhong Qiqi. No matter how guilty or painful, that bright and lively little girl cannot come back in the end. She has always been frozen in her memory, but real life is still
I have to live on because Xu Rongrong still has family.
Perhaps Zhong Qiqi also hopes that everyone will not remember her and stay in her pain forever.
Thinking of this, Xu Rongrong sighed and said a little sadly, "Bai Sheng, I think if she was alive, she wouldn't want to see you so sad. Even if you don't do it for yourself, you must live well for her."
Live well with the desire to go down."
Bai Sheng's expression changed slightly, and finally settled on indifference.
He opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything.
Xu Rongrong sighed, "Let's go visit her on the third day of junior high school."
Bai Sheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded. His voice, which had been silent for a long time, finally made a sound, "Well, okay."
Seeing this, Xu Rongrong did not disturb him, but just stuffed another handful of dried fruits into his hand, and then returned to Zhan Yiyang.
A warm night was spent like this, with a large group of people playing until midnight. It was not until the New Year's bell rang that the parents of each family returned to their rooms with their children in their arms.
Of course, Tianning and Bai were one year old and no longer needed anyone to hold them, and A Nuan was taken away by Bai Yi, so Xu Rongrong returned to the bedroom very easily.
As soon as she closed the door, she put her arms around Zhan Yiyang's neck and said with a smile, "It's great that the children have grown up."
"Yes, we have been an old married couple for many years." Zhan Yiyang gently pinched Xu Rongrong's skin, which was still as smooth as gel, and then sighed, "You look like you are in your early thirties.
But I am much older.,”
After saying that, he shook his head, feeling quite sad.
Xu Rongrong almost doubled over with laughter. She glared at Zhan Yiyang, only to find that the man's usually handsome face had traces of wrinkles.
Although this is much better than those of people of the same age who have wrinkles on their faces, it is still unbearably sad.
Wrinkles mean you are really old.
Thinking of this, Xu Rongrong couldn't help but his eyes turned red, and then he threw himself directly into Zhan Yiyang's arms and said in a low voice, "You are not old, you are still the same as when you were thirty years old, your handsome folds are shining.
Moreover, even if you are old, I will not dislike you, and I will never laugh at you all day long."
Hmm... Zhan Yiyang nodded his chin. Why did the last sentence sound so funny? Zhan Yiyang shook his head helplessly, then lowered his head and bit Xu Rongrong's fair face at lightning speed.
one time.
Xu Rongrong was in pain and raised his head to question Zhan Yiyang, but saw the man's indifferent eyes, but revealed the slightest tenderness when looking at her.
Such tenderness has never changed in more than ten years. It seems to be telling Xu Rongrong that he has always loved her.
"I hate it." Xu Rongrong groaned and fell into Zhan Yiyang's arms, then kept his head down without saying a word.
Because Zhan's place is a suburb, you should know that there are no villas in the bustling city center, they are all commercial buildings.
It is precisely because of the location that although there are not many people around, they are all wealthy families. Therefore, whether it is a neighbor as close as 200 meters away or the same suburban villa as far away as 3,000 meters away,
Fireworks were set off.
Colorful lights shine in the sky, this moment is really beautiful.
Xu Rongrong suddenly felt something in her heart. She turned her head and looked at Zhan Yiyang, "Yiyang, do you still remember the Repulse Bay where we lived before?"
"Remember, what's wrong?" Zhan Yiyang raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
Xu Rongrong didn't see Zhan Yiyang's strange expression because she had already closed her eyes and was immersed in memories.
I remember many years ago, when they were newly married, they celebrated the New Year at Repulse Bay and watched the fireworks explode in the sky very close to them and within their reach.
The world at that time was so dazzlingly beautiful and so refreshing.
"Why did you suddenly think of Repulse Bay?" Zhan Yiyang lowered his head, kissed Xu Rongrong's forehead gently, and then asked softly.
Xu Rongrong pursed his lips, then suddenly raised the corners of his lips, as if smiling, and then said in a nostalgic tone, "We haven't gone back to that place for a long time."
Speaking of this, Zhan Yiyang did feel a little guilty. He lowered his head and pressed his forehead against Xu Rongrong's, and then said softly, "Yes, I get caught up in things every time I go back. It's true that I haven't returned for many years."
Repulse Bay, after all, is a place where we have very fond memories.”
"If it weren't for all kinds of things that always hinder me, I really want to go back to Repulse Bay." Xu Rongrong said with some longing.
"Okay." Zhan Yiyang agreed without any hesitation.
He held Xu Rongrong in his arms, then gently brushed her cheek with his big palm, and finally settled on her red lips.
"We will go back after the New Year, to our old home, to Repulse Bay." Zhan Yiyang said in a low voice, as if he was giving an instruction, and he seemed to be telling himself something secretly.
Xu Rongrong nodded, opened her eyes and saw Zhan Yiyang's fiery eyes, her cheeks blushed shyly.
