After Zuo Chenye made the call, he walked around alone downstairs a few times to relieve his emotions.
I don't want to take the depression home, let alone cause any burden to Qiao Ran.
Now, it is the best choice to let her be an outsider. Yu Chengxian will not have time to disturb her for the time being. He has just established a new military team and has many things to be busy with.
The night wind was very cold and penetrated into my body wantonly.
He had gone downstairs in a hurry and was wearing too few clothes. Gradually, his limbs became numb from the cold.
He rubbed his stiff hands and decided to go back to the apartment.
Go upstairs, open the door, and enter the living room.
Qiao Ze'an had already taken a bath and put on his cute little dinosaur pajamas. Qiao Ran was walking out of the bathroom holding him in his arms.
"You look very cold. Would you like to go in and take a bath? It'll be very comfortable." Qiao Ze'an asked with concern.
Zuo Chenye stepped forward and tapped his little nose, "No, thank you. Go to bed early."
"Hey, your hands are so cold." Qiao Ze'an avoided Zuo Chenye's cold fingers and yawned, "Mommy, I'm going to sleep, I'm so sleepy."
Qiao Ran carried him into the room and put him to sleep, "Good boy, you go to bed first. Mom will come in and sleep with you tonight."
"Okay, mommy, good night." Qiao Ze'an nodded obediently.
Qiao Ran turned off the light and walked out.
Then, close the door gently.
Looking up, she saw Zuo Chenye standing in the living room, his body still trembling slightly. She asked, "You went downstairs to make a phone call in your pajamas. It would be strange if you weren't freezing. Do you want me to get you a blanket to cover you with?"
"Need not."
He smiled and suddenly stepped forward to hug her into his arms, "With you, I am warm enough."
"You're so cold, let me go!" She struggled a bit, and the cold air from his body was transmitted to her, making her scalp numb.
"My body heats up quickly. If you don't believe it, just wait and see." As he said that, he hugged her tighter.
The coldness on his body quickly subsided. Instead, the scorching warmth gradually enveloped her, warming her to the bottom of her heart.
"Why did you take so long on the phone?" She felt the warmth and peace of mind and asked softly.
"I took a walk downstairs for a while to adjust my mood." He let go of her and stared at her tenderly.
Qiao Ran felt a little embarrassed. She sat down on the sofa and asked, "What do you think of today's events?"
"Yu Chengxian must have been planning this matter for a long time, and it will definitely not be accomplished in a day. When he encounters the right opportunity, he will usurp power sooner or later." Zuo Chenye crossed his arms across his chest and analyzed.
"Too underestimated his ambition and ability." Qiao Ran pouted. At first, she really thought that Yu Chengxian was just clinging to An Yunxi's position and borrowing money from the Xia family.
Unexpectedly, Yu Chengxian is a real jackal.
She thought of Qin Ninzhen, that gentle and generous woman who exuded the brilliance of motherhood. She had always had a good impression of Qin Ninzhen, and she didn't know what Qin Ninzhen's situation was now.
For some reason, she was worried in her heart and didn't want Qin Nianzhen to be harmed.
"Yes. I thought he was ambitious, but I never thought it would be so fast. After all, he is still young, so there is no need to be so anxious. It is impossible for all the elders in the warlord to buy into him." Zuo Chenye poured himself a glass of water.
Drink it slowly.
"It is wise to protect yourself, but the elders see the situation as one-sided. No one wants to give up their current glory and wealth easily, let alone take risks." Qiao Ran said angrily.
Zuo Chenye put down his tea cup, "That's right."
As if he suddenly remembered something, he turned around and walked towards the door, reaching out and opening it.
The cold wind from the corridor slowly poured in as he opened the door.
He looked like he wanted to go out.
Qiao Ran saw him raising his feet to leave, and suddenly felt empty in his heart.
She even instinctively stopped him, "Where are you going? Stay here tonight."
Zuo Chenye paused in his steps and was startled.
He tilted his head, his handsome eyes widened, his thin lips slightly opened, looking at her sitting on the sofa in disbelief.
