When Qiao Ran drove back to Lanhai Apartment, he saw Zuo Chenye's sports car already in the underground garage.
It means he has come back.
When she got out of the car and passed his sports car, she felt that his car body was still hot, indicating that he had just come back.
She looked at her watch. It was already nine o'clock.
An An probably hadn't slept yet, so she hurried upstairs and returned home.
Aunt Wang hadn't left yet. When she saw Qiao Ran coming back, she said enthusiastically, "Mr. Qiao, you're back. An An has already taken a bath. She can go to bed after playing for a while."
Qiao Ze'an slid down from the sofa and ran to Qiao Ran, "Mommy, you're back."
Qiao Ran picked up Qiao Ze'an and hugged him hard, "Sorry, I have something to do today. I wanted to come back early to be with you."
"It doesn't matter, mommy, your matters are more important." Qiao Ze'an said very sensibly.
Aunt Wang packed up her things, walked to the door, and said, "Mr. Qiao, I'm leaving first. See you tomorrow!"
"Okay, bye!" Qiao Ran waved his hand.
After Aunt Wang left, Qiao Ran looked around the house in confusion. It was strange that he didn't see Zuo Chenye. He was obviously back. According to the past, he must have run to her house if he was fine.
It's really strange today, he's not here?
No, why should she care whether he comes or not?
It's as if she really wants him to come, but if he doesn't come, she won't get used to it. What the hell.
"Mommy, why didn't uncle come for dinner today?" Qiao Ze'an asked.
"I don't know either." Qiao Ran shook his head, "Maybe he has his own things to be busy with."
"Well, Aunt Wang specially made his favorite steak today, but he didn't come to eat it." Qiao Ze'an looked a little frustrated.
Qiao Ran rubbed the top of An An's soft hair, "It doesn't matter, I will tell him, it's okay as long as it comes to my mind. An An, have you drank the milk? It's time to go to bed."
Qiao Ze'an nodded, "I've had a drink and brushed my teeth. Mommy."
"Well, you're so good." Qiao Ran reached out and pinched his little nose, "It's time to go to sleep. Children must ensure adequate sleep to grow taller."
"Okay." Although Qiao Ze'an was a little reluctant, he was obedient.
He glanced at the door, feeling a little disappointed.
Qiao Ran saw this and felt a dull pain in his heart.
She knew that An An was waiting for Zuo Chenye. The boy was older, so he really needed a man's company? She had ignored An An's feelings for a long time, and she felt guilty.
Not all needs, as a mother, can be met by her.
at this time.
There was a knock on the door.
At the same time, almost instantly, Qiao Ze'an slipped out of Qiao Ran's arms and hurried forward to open the door.
Sure enough, the person who came was none other than Zuo Chenye.
"Uncle, uncle." Qiao Ze'an called affectionately.
"An'an, be good." Zuo Chenye picked up Qiao Ze'an, walked into the house, and closed the door behind him.
In fact, he came back for a while, but he was in a daze for a while in his apartment. He needed to empty his mind, need a quiet environment, and let himself think about it. The amount of information he learned today shocked him so much that he needed to think carefully.
Think about what to do next.
"Uncle, Aunt Wang specially made your favorite steak today. It's a pity that you didn't come to eat it," Qiao Ze'an said.
"It's not a pity." Zuo Chenye smiled softly, "I haven't had dinner yet."
"Really. Then eat them all quickly." Qiao Ze'an clapped his hands happily.
"Well, An An, good boy, you go to bed first, okay." Zuo Chenye carried An An to the room, put him on the bed, and covered An An with a quilt.
