The day Zhou Cishen was discharged from the hospital happened to be New Year's Eve, and the streets were brightly lit and busy with traffic.
In the car, Ruan Xingwan frowned and said, "Jiang Yuan has already said that you'd better stay in the hospital for a while. It's only been a few days..."
Zhou Cishen didn't pay much attention, just held her hand: "I know, it's okay."
Ruan Xingwan wanted to say, "You have so many farts," but he held back the words before he reached his lips.
He has been in the hospital for almost half a month. If it were her, she would be uncomfortable.
However, Jiang Yuan said that Zhou Cishen's wounds have recovered well. He lives with them anyway, so any problems can be dealt with in time.
Zhou Cishen looked sideways at her, curved the corners of his lips, and reached out to pinch her nose: "I can't bear to have you running back and forth."
Ruan Xingwan was too lazy to pay attention to him, took his hand away, and looked out the window.
There seemed to be a New Year's Eve concert in the city square not far away, and many people gathered there.
Very lively.
Back at the apartment, Xu Yue had just put the little guy to sleep.
She said: "Do you want something to eat? I'll do it."
Ruan Xingwan smiled coquettishly and said, "Yes, I'm hungry."
"Sit down for a while, you'll be fine soon."
Ruan Xingwan responded, then looked at Zhou Cishen: "What are you doing standing here?"
Zhou Cishen: "?"
Ruan Xingwan said: "Oh, I forgot to tell you. You can sleep next door. Shanshan and Daniel have already moved out. Knowing that you have mysophobia, I had everything inside changed."
He strode his long legs, sat on the sofa, and said slowly: "You are still thoughtful."
Ruan Xingwan raised her eyebrows and sat next to him: "This is not what I meant. Mom said, I want you to reflect on why my condition during this pregnancy is much better than last time."
Zhou Cishen: "..."
His thin lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he did not speak.
Women can find various reasons to settle old scores all the time.
Ruan Xingwan saw that he was trying his best to refute but was speechless. He felt much better and walked to the kitchen with excitement: "Mom, let me help you."
At this time, Zhou Cishen's cell phone rang. He looked at the caller ID, looked a little calmer, got up and walked out the door.
Jiang Yan's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Zhou Junnian's people in Jiangzhou have been cleared out, but..."
"Tell me the result."
"There has been no trace of Huai Xin. According to Zhou Junnian's men, Huai Xin had disappeared five minutes before they took action.
It seems that he must have realized that Jiangzhou is a trap."
Zhou Cishen said: "Huai Xin is the most trusted person around Zhou Junnian. When he heard the news that Zhou Junnian fell into the sea, it was impossible for him to escape alone. He should have returned to Nancheng."
Jiang Yan said: "Then I'll be back tomorrow."
Although Zhou Junnian's plan has completely failed, the matter is far from settled.
Whether it was Huai Xin or Jon who escaped in the chaos, these two people were not good people.
Moreover, Zhou Junnian ruined the New Coast Project, leaving a mess for the Zhou family.
The current Zhou family has undoubtedly become the Lin family that was defeated by Lin Zhi'an.
The impact is even wider.
Zhou Cishen hung up the phone, pursed his thin lips slightly, and looked into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.
…
When Ruan Xingwan came out of the kitchen, she saw that Zhou Cishen was no longer in the living room. She went to the bedroom again, but there was no one there either.
This man was unusually obedient today.
It's really rare.
Xu Yue's voice came: "Xiao Ruan, it's time to eat."
"Here we come."
Ruan Xingwan responded and closed the bedroom door again to avoid disturbing the little one's sleep.
She looked at the food on the table and said to Xu Yue: "Mom, I can't eat so much. You put half of it in the thermos bucket. I'll take it to Zhou Cishen after I finish it."
Xu Yue smiled: "Okay."
Ruan Xingwan ate this late-night snack very quickly. After finishing the meal, he carried the thermos bucket to the next door.
As soon as she opened the door, she heard Zhou Cishen talking on the phone, and faintly heard the word "Zhou".
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Zhou Cishen whispered something to the other side. He put away his phone and looked at Ruan Xingwan. His eyes fell on the thermos bucket in her hand, and his eyebrows slightly raised.
Ruan Xingwan put the things on the table: "Mom is afraid that you are hungry, so eat quickly."
Zhou Cishen came over, pulled out a chair, and sat across from her.
Ruan Xingwan handed him the chopsticks, thought for a while and then said: "Zhou's side, do you want to go back?"
Zhou Cishen paused slightly and took the chopsticks: "Why do you ask that?"
Ruan Xingwan said: "Although I don't understand financial news, Zhou's recent situation is getting worse day by day. This is definitely not what you want to see."
"The day I left, Mrs. Zhou had nothing to do with me."
"Although I say so..."
But Zhou's success today was built step by step by his own hands.
At that time, Mr. Zhou suppressed him and the outside world stared at him.
Amid such internal and external troubles, no one knows better than him how much energy it has taken to reach this point.
Ruan Xingwan looked at him and continued: "Although Mr. Zhou's surname is Zhou, he is no longer the original Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Cishen said in a low voice: "Huh?"
Ruan Xingwan said: "When I went to Lin's to take over that mess, you fully supported me and let me do what I wanted to do. Now I still say the same thing. No matter what you do, I will support you."
.”
Zhou Cishen laughed silently: "I am not as selfless as you think. The life and death of others have nothing to do with me."
Ruan Xingwan also laughed and pushed the thermos bucket in front of him: "Let's eat."
She knew that Zhou Cishen would definitely go back, and he would not leave Zhou alone.
But she just wanted to let him heal his injuries before talking about anything else.
After a while, Ruan Xingwan looked at the time: "It's very late. I'm going back to sleep. Good night."
As soon as she stood up, Zhou Cishen took her hand: "You're here, just sleep here."
Ruan Xingwan: "..."
She knew that there was absolutely nothing wrong with him.
Just as Ruan Xingwan was about to speak, Zhou Cishen pulled her into his arms. As the fireworks sounded outside the window, his deep and magnetic voice came: "Happy New Year, baby."
Ruan Xingwan was stunned and looked out, looking at the fireworks all over the sky: "It's not even early in the morning yet..."
While speaking, she suddenly thought of something: "Did you arrange it?"
Zhou Cishen hugged her and looked out: "Apologise? You have to be sincere."
"But aren't fireworks allowed in the city?"
“I applied a few days in advance and it was approved today, New Year’s Eve.”
Ruan Xingwan: "..."
It's nice to have money.
Zhou Cishen turned to look at her: "So, can you forgive me?"
The corners of Ruan Xingwan's lips curled up, and his eyes fell on the fireworks outside the window again: "It depends on my mood."
"So how are you feeling now?"
"generally."
Zhou Cishen tightened his arms around her and pulled her into his arms: "Huh?"
