Under the blanket, Nie Zheng held her hand, spread her fingers, and intertwined their fingers with hers.
Feng Xiaoxiao looked up and saw Nie Zheng leaning on the seat with his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.
Feng Xiaoxiao raised the corners of her mouth, her smile never dissipating for a long time.

The car stopped at the gate of the courtyard in Shili Busy Town.
Shili Busyness is also a high-end villa area, and it is not easy to let cars in. To facilitate entry and exit, Tian Li got a pass.
When we got off the bus, one of us hugged a fish.
Nie Zheng hugged the big fish. As soon as the big fish was picked up, he rubbed his eyes and woke up. "Uncle."
"Um."
Nie Zheng agreed, "We're home. My uncle won't be able to send you in for a while. This is just right. Can you walk in by yourself?"
"Yeah, okay." Da Yu'er nodded.
"Big Yu'er." Nie Zheng thought for a while, "Uncle, I want to ask you for something. Can you help me?"
"What's the matter?" Da Yu'er frowned and looked wary. "If you ask me to help you pursue your mother, then I won't agree. This is something you have to work hard on."
Nie Zheng was startled, this kid is really difficult to deal with.
He shook his head, "That's not the case. My uncle just wanted to ask if someone, such as another uncle, comes to see my mother. Can you give me a call?"
"oh."
Da Yuer understood, "You want me to be an intelligence agent, but why should I help you? You and that uncle should compete fairly."
Tsk.
Nie Zheng has a toothache, and his son knows too much, which is not a good thing.
"That's it." Nie Zheng compromised, "If you give me information, uncle will give you a complete set of the latest children's comics, and he will also top up your game account."
The conditions sound good.
Da Yu'er nodded, "Then...okay."
"Deal." Nie Zheng raised his fist and exchanged blows with Da Yu'er.
Feng Xiaoxiao hugged the sleeping little Yu'er and looked over in confusion, "What are you talking about? Big Yu'er, can you come down and walk by yourself?"
"oh."
The big fish slithered down, jumped off Nie Zheng's body, ran to his mother, and waved to Nie Zheng.
"Goodbye uncle."
Nie Zheng nodded towards Da Yu'er and winked.
Huh? Feng Xiaoxiao was suspicious, "Da Yu'er, what did you say? It seemed like we had a good conversation."
"Nothing." Da Yu'er raised his chin, "It's just a conversation between men."
Um?
Feng Xiaoxiao was stunned. It was another conversation between men... Last time Junyan came, Da Yuer seemed to have said the same thing.
Feng Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be a little worried. Da Yu'er didn't seem to like Qi Junyan very much. I wonder if he also resisted Nie Zheng?
"Big Yu'er..." Feng Xiaoxiao impulsively wanted to ask his son what he thought.
"Mom, what's the matter?" Da Yu'er raised his head and looked at his mother.
"No..." Feng Xiaoxiao shook her head in confusion. What happened to her? She and Nie Zheng were not even close to each other, so now she had to ask her child for her opinion?
If you express your thoughts, won't you be laughed at?
"Go in."
Feng Xiaoxiao opened the door and led the fish in.
After packing up and lying on the bed, Feng Xiaoxiao opened her phone. It was clean and there were no missed calls or messages.
Why.
Feng Xiaoxiao turned over and thought, what is Nie Zheng doing now?
Mr. Nie, who had just come out of the shower, accidentally sneezed. "A sneeze——"
Nie Zheng rubbed his nose and entered the small study.
On the table, there was the polaroid family photo. Nie Zheng picked it up, his eyebrows softened, and he murmured for a long time.
"Xiaoxiao, this time, I walk in front of you, you just accept me... just accept it."

Shang Junci returned to Jinyuan early in the morning and was about to find something to eat when he met Nie Zheng in the restaurant.
"Ouch..." Shang Junci frowned and turned to leave.
"Where are you going?" Nie Zheng pointed to the chair without even raising his eyes to look at him. "Sit down and eat."
"Hehe." Shang Junci walked over with a playful smile, "Brother, it's so early."
"Morning?" Nie Zheng glanced at him and pointed at his watch, "Isn't it too late for you?"
He stayed up all night and didn't come back until dawn.
"hey-hey."
Shang Junci kept smiling, without any embarrassment at all.
"Brother, I am different from you. You are a veteran cadre, and I am still young."
Tsk.
Nie Zheng frowned, worried about this younger brother.
"What are you doing in private? Don't touch women you shouldn't touch. I don't care about the rest. This is your way of life and I have no right to interfere."
"Brother, don't worry." Shang Junci patted his chest, "I won't cause trouble for you."
Nie Zheng shook his head, "I'm not afraid that you will cause trouble for me, I'm afraid that you will hurt yourself before I can clean up the mess for you. Do you understand?"
Hearing this, the smile on Shang Junci's face stiffened.
"Brother." Shang Junci was a little moved, "Don't worry, I have to protect my life for you."
"Not for me."
Nie Zheng frowned and shook his head. "For your mother's sake."
He thought about it and realized that he was worried after all.
"Why do you keep playing with the world like this? I remember, don't you have a girl you like? Could it be that that girl is dead and no longer alive?"
"Ouch!"
When Shang Junci heard this, he jumped up from his chair in shock. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and almost covered Nie Zheng's mouth.
"Brother, can you stop talking nonsense? This girl is living well."
"Yes." Nie Zheng nodded, "I made a mistake in my wording, so I apologize to you. Since the girl is living well, why don't you pursue her properly?"
"elder brother……"
Shang Junci made a sad face.
"Do you think everyone is as lucky as you, and the girl you like is always by your side? I'm not as lucky as you, I..."
"What?" Nie Zheng understood, "Can't find it?"
"...Hmm." Shang Junci nodded vaguely, "How many years has it been? We have long lost contact."
Nie Zheng really cares about his younger brother.
"Do you know the name? You said you met her at a banquet. She must be the daughter of some family. Do you have any clues? I'll find it for you."
"Don't."
Shang Junci was shocked and shook his head in panic.
"Brother, you're like this, I'm scared."
"What are you afraid of?" Nie Zheng was confused.
"That's it..." Shang Junci touched his neck, his eyes twinkling, "I've only seen that girl once, and I don't know her name. She doesn't even have a photo. I really can't find her."
this……
Nie Zheng was confused, "It shouldn't be. Since we met at a banquet, it's impossible that she attended that banquet."
"hehe."
Shang Junci smiled dryly, "Maybe she is not a daughter of some family, and it was an accident that she went to that banquet."
"Yeah." Nie Zheng nodded. This statement made sense. In this case, he couldn't do anything for his brother.
Nie Zheng had no choice but to knock on Shang Junci's bowl and said, "Have breakfast and have a good sleep. I'm going to socialize with you in the evening."
Shang Junci complained, "Brother, say goodbye?"
"Then what do you want to do?" Nie Zheng ignored him, "If you don't do the work assigned to you well, you will always have to open up connections."
"Hey..." Shang Junci sighed, today's breakfast was not delicious at all.
