260 Forbearing to care about the past and not mentioning it
As night fell, Xiao Yichen finally got away from the busy afternoon and took a bus back to the community.
Light rain began to fall in the sky, hitting the car window glass, vaguely reflecting the neon lights of the lights outside.
There were secretary Gong Jun and the driver in the car. Xiao Yichen didn't want others to know too much about him, so he asked the driver to put him downstairs in the community and drove away.
Cold rain dripped on his head. He ran a few steps and stood under the nearest eaves. As soon as he turned his head, he saw her walking towards him from far away.
The expression that had been serious all afternoon finally became relaxed, and a smile appeared naturally in an instant, and she said softly: "Why did you come out?" She held an umbrella in her hand, and she looked like she was coming to pick him up.
Xie Yunshu felt a little guilty because of what happened during the day. As she was waiting for him to come back for dinner, she saw it was raining outside. She simply asked the confinement sister-in-law to take care of the two children. She took an umbrella and went out.
Xie Yunshu pursed his lips and smiled, held up an umbrella and took him home. He said leisurely: "After dinner, I went for a walk, and I happened to see you looking miserable in the rain." In fact, he was very calm in the rain, and his calm face looked even more handsome.
, she was stunned for a second not far away.
Xiao Yichen took the umbrella in her hand, looked down at her and raised his eyebrows: "Are you embarrassed?"
"Yes." She stopped and faced him, raising her hands to wipe away the raindrops on his shoulders and hair.
He smiled meaninglessly and ignored the raindrops on his body, "It's okay, you're just here to save me." In the past, whenever it rained, his secretary would hold an umbrella. Now that he has such a gentle woman to pick him up, he feels really happy.
Incredible.
Xie Yunshu glanced at him and interrupted his silly joy, "Don't be narcissistic. I'm out for a walk."
He asked with great interest: "I just recovered from a fever yesterday, and you went out for a walk under an umbrella today when it got dark?" Such an excuse was too lame. She obviously cared about him, but she still pretended to be a coincidence.
Xie Yunshu: "..."
The two of them held an umbrella together, so it was inevitable that their sides would get wet. He raised his arms to hug her and chuckled, "I'm not kidding you anymore. Have you eaten yet?" It was almost seven o'clock, and he was already a little hungry.
She shook her head and looked up at him with clear eyes, "We'll wait until you come back."
There was no one in the elevator, so he pressed the floor button and said, "You don't have to wait for me in the future. I'll just have something to eat at the company."
She originally wanted to insist, but she was afraid that it would tie him down and prevent him from handling the company's affairs well. After thinking about it, she suggested: "How about you call back in advance, and I will decide that I can't wait for you." When he came back, he made a handwritten note.
He prepared two special dishes, and when he wasn't back to eat, she would just eat some.
Xiao Yichen nodded, "Well, that's just right. By the way, is the baby okay? I changed to a new home today." Babies are sensitive to the environment, and he is a little worried that they will not adapt to the environment.
Xie Yunshu briefly recalled that the baby had not cried all afternoon, and replied: "It's pretty good. I woke up at noon and played for a long time." However, they only observed the outside world and didn't react much.
The elevator door opened, and he took her out of the stairwell, took out the key and opened the door. "What about you? Are you still getting used to it?"
Xie Yunshu took the umbrella and shook off the water on it, followed him through the door, and replied: "That was my room originally, but you are used to living in a big house, so this time I changed it to one with less than 90 square meters."
The two of them entered the house one after another, changed their shoes, and then went to the sink to wash their hands. He used a towel to help her dry the water stains on her hands, and said with a smile: "A big house is empty, but a small house is better and warmer." Turning around, they were all there.
The two of them were facing each other, which was exactly what he wanted.
She withdrew her hand, wrinkled her nose, and said with a smile: "Come on, you don't have a study anymore." In such a small house, he didn't even have time to handle official duties quietly.
Xiao Yichen stood by the renovated door and looked at the two sleeping babies. He returned to the kitchen to serve the food and said to her: "Stay with me and read the documents on the sofa in the living room."
She placed the dishes and chopsticks, shook her head and said, "No, I'll be so sleepy that I fall asleep." Now she is no longer the professional woman she used to be. She becomes sleepy after using her brain for a while and can't cheer up.
He smiled helplessly, "Okay, then you can help me make coffee and oatmeal milk." It is also a pleasure to add fragrance to the red sleeves.
The two sat down at the dining table. Xie Yunshu first brought him a lot of vegetables, and then started to eat his own rice. He said with a smile: "This is okay, I like oats anyway." I'm afraid she will taste it first.
Then she would serve it to him, but she couldn't stay up all night, so in the end he had to brew it himself and refill it.
He looked at her talking while eating, and said lovingly: "I think you are hungry, eat quickly." Then he also picked up a bowl of vegetables for her.
Xie Yunshu chewed the meat slices he brought, bit her chopsticks and asked, "By the way, where did you arrange for Yuesao to live?"
Xiao Yichen swallowed the food in his mouth and replied: "Didn't she tell you? It's in this building, just two floors down." There happened to be a room for rent in this building, so he asked his secretary to place the confinement nanny nearby.
She nodded with relief and praised: "That's quite convenient." This way, the confinement nanny doesn't have to run around.
"Absolutely, otherwise it would be much harder for you to take care of the baby alone." With the confinement nanny here, she can ask for advice on things she doesn't know, and she can be a more competent mother.
Xie Yunshu took two mouthfuls of rice and said with a smile: "If the baby is okay, I can handle it by myself." So many mothers can take care of their babies by themselves, but she can't survive without a confinement nanny.
Xiao Yichen picked up some food for her and joked: "To put it lightly, your mother must have spent more time taking care of you than they did when you were a child." When he said this, he remembered that she had never told him about her family.
"..." Xie Yunshu lowered her head. When she was a child, she never remembered her mother's warmth.
He sensed something was wrong, looked at the way she lowered her head, and asked: "Ying Lian, what's wrong with you?"
She pondered for a moment and whispered: "Xiao Yichen, please don't mention my childhood in the future, okay." She told Qiao Ye that her childhood was still vivid in her mind, but now she doesn't want to mention it anymore.
Xiao Yichen patted her back and comforted her: "I'm sorry, you never told me that I touched your heart." Although he was curious, it was better not to say anything more.
She shook her head and said calmly: "It's okay, but I don't know who my biological parents are. They abandoned me long ago."
He couldn't bear it and didn't dare to listen anymore, "Stop talking, forget about the past, I will take care of you in the future."
Xie Yunshu chuckled and said, "I don't even know how to carry an umbrella, so you should take care of yourself first." Both of them are old, so they still have to take care of themselves.
He said calmly: "It's okay, a man's body is fine if it gets wet in the rain."
She picked up the food for him, then continued to eat with her head down, saying softly: "I can't tell you, just pay attention to yourself."
