It is now 11 o'clock at night, the desk lamp in the bedroom is on, Hattori Mina is lying in her clothes, with Rong Rong sleeping soundly next to her.
Jiang Xinyu opened the closet door and rummaged for a while, but couldn't find his pajamas. He felt puzzled because he usually stacked them on top.
He muttered to himself: "Where are the pajamas?"
Hattori Mina turned over and said sleepily: "It's on the chair..."
As expected, his pajamas were placed on the chair in the corner. After Jiang Xinyu changed his clothes, he quietly went downstairs and went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face.
When he returned to the bedroom, Hattori Mina had already sat up, but still closed her eyes and said: "Xinyu."
"ah?"
"Is it still raining outside?"
"It's raining. It's not that heavy anymore, it's raining lightly."
Jiang Xinyu leaned down and looked at his daughter for a while. A sweet smile appeared on Rongrong's face, and she didn't know what sweet dream she had.
"Mina, why didn't you change your clothes when you went to bed?"
"...Rongrong insists on sleeping with me. I want to wait until she falls asleep before taking her back to the crib."
"It turns out you fell asleep too."
"Um."
Jiang Xinyu picked up his daughter, gently put her back on the crib, carefully covered her with the quilt, and then returned to her own bed.
Hattori Mina got out of bed and said to Jiang Xinyu while changing her pajamas: "In the afternoon, the fishery store called and said that the salmon you ordered has arrived."
"Oh, I got it." Jiang Xinyu knew very well that this was the emergency contact method agreed with Chu Xiaoxiao in advance.
"What are you buying salmon for? It's very expensive."
"If you like to eat, I'll order some."
"too expensive."
"It's okay."
"Don't buy it next time."
"This season is the best, it can be stored for several days."
Climbing into bed, Hattori Mina glanced at the clock on the wall and said in surprise: "It's already so late?"
Jiang Xinyu turned off the desk lamp, pulled up the quilt, and said: "That's right, go to sleep. If you don't sleep, it will be dawn."
After a minute of silence, Hattori Mina suddenly said: "By the way, the Wang family called and asked if Tongtong had been here."
"when?"
"Probably...just after nine o'clock."
"oh……"
"It's raining so heavily. Where did Miss Tong go? Tomorrow morning, you call me and ask her to make sure nothing happens again."
"She's fine."
"how do you know?"
"She went to Dengyinglou."
After saying this, worried about Hattori Mina's overthinking, Jiang Xinyu explained: "Tongtong passed by Dengyinglou, saw my car, and went upstairs to look for me. You also know her character..."
"Yes, I know." In the darkness, Hattori Mina's tone was calm.
After a while, Hattori Mina's warm body came closer and said softly: "Xinyu, I still say what I said, if you like Tongtong, marry her..."
Jiang Xinyu was silent for a moment, sighed in his heart, and said: "Stop thinking so much, go to sleep!"
"And one more thing……"
"Let's talk tomorrow."
"I am pregnant."
"pregnant?"
"Um."
"Have you gone to the hospital for a checkup?"
"The medical certificate is in the drawer."
In today's era, it is very common for a family to have three or five children. But at this moment, Jiang Xinyu's heart is getting heavier and heavier.
One child is already a burden, and now a second one has arrived. With his special status, who can guarantee what will happen tomorrow.
And once something happens, what should Mina and the child do...
Seeing that Jiang Xinyu was silent and did not show any joy, Hattori Mina was surprised and said: "Xinyu, aren't you happy?"
"I'm happy, of course I'm happy, but I didn't expect it to be so fast." Jiang Xinyu concealed his emotions. He didn't want to affect Mina's mood. He turned sideways and said jokingly: "Mina, speaking of it, you are very useful and you don't waste time at all.
."
"You hate..." Hattori Mina pretended to be angry and lightly punched Jiang Xinyu.
The sound of wind and rain outside the window blended into one.
…………
The next day, early morning.
The rain finally stopped, but the sky was still cloudy and closed.
"Xinyu, Xinyu, it's almost seven o'clock!"
"Not in a hurry……"
"You do not have to work?"
"Go to the security headquarters for a meeting at nine o'clock. You don't have to go to the station in the morning."
"Oh, no wonder."
Hattori Mina got up and cleaned the house, and Xiaolan's voice came from outside the door: "Miss, the food is ready, do you want to eat now?"
"Just wait a little longer."
"OK."
Jiang Xinyu yawned, rubbed his eyes, and said, "It's been so long, why does Xiaolan still call you miss?"
With a crash, Hattori Mina opened the curtains, looked downstairs for a while, and said, "She, please call me Shunzui."
There was water everywhere in the yard, and the steps were submerged.
Hattori Mina thought for a while and said: "It's broken! Will the black girl's nest get flooded?"
"I watched it last night, it's okay." Jiang Xinyu got up and got out of bed.
Hattori Mina said from behind: "Aren't you going to sleep?"
"I feel energetic." Jiang Xinyu left the bedroom and walked downstairs.
After washing up, he sat on the sofa in the living room and read the newspaper for a while, when Jiang Xinyu suddenly felt something in his heart.
He remembered what Hattori Mina had just said: Get used to it...
Habit is a person's subconscious behavior.
Just like personality, it is difficult to change without special reasons.
Just after breakfast, there was a rapid knock on the door.
"Xiaolan, open the door!" Hattori Mina glanced at Jiang Xinyu and said casually: "No need to ask, it must be Miss Tong."
Jiang Xinyu said: "Really?"
"The black girl didn't scream. Who else could be there besides her?"
"Early in the morning, she came quite early..."
"Yes, it's usually after nine o'clock. What happened today?"
"It's time to sleep!"
While they were talking, Tong Tong walked in like a gust of wind, with an anxious look on his face, and said, "Xinyu, something happened!"
Jiang Xinyu put down the newspaper and warned him tactfully, "Can you please stop being so surprised? What happened?"
Tong Tong said: "Oh, I want to say... there is water everywhere on the street, please drive carefully."
The turning point was so abrupt that even Hattori Mina could tell that what Tong Tong was going to say was definitely not this!
There is no doubt that Tong Tong likes Jiang Xinyu.
However, Hattori Mina knew in her heart that Jiang Xinyu's heart was with herself and her daughter, and he and Tong Tong were ambiguous at best!
"Miss Tong, have you had breakfast?" Hattori Mina asked with a smile.
"No...I can't sleep, so I came out for a walk." Tong Tong said hesitantly.
"Sit down, I'll let Xiaolan heat up the food." Hattori Mina walked out.
As soon as she left, Tong Tong immediately said: "It's bad, Chu Xiaoxiao is missing!"
Jiang Xinyu said: "Gone? How did you know?"
"I just went to her bookstore, and there was a sign hanging on the door that said there was a family emergency and the business was closed!" Tong Tong said.
