After leaving the villa, Zhao Qian left the Yu Mansion and drove for more than an hour back to his home in the neighborhood.
Located in a second-tier town in an inconspicuous second-tier city, the geographical location is relatively remote, but the transportation is convenient and the living facilities are complete, making it very suitable for living. The most important thing is that because it is a high-end private villa area, it is isolated from the general population, so it is safe and private.
Guaranteed.
Of course, the price is not cheap. Although it is not as crazy as the housing prices in first- and second-tier mainstream cities, it is still worth millions, which is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
When I pulled the car into the garage, it was already 2 o'clock.
Zhao Qian looked at the time. Although he was gentle, the lights were still on as soon as he entered the room. He was a little helpless, but also a little gentle.
"So late."
A woman walked out of the house. She must be less than thirty. She was wearing a nightgown. She was not beautiful, but she was delicate and fair, giving people a simple feeling. She walked out, took out the slippers for him to change into, and took the slippers.
He took off his coat and helped him untie his tie, gently.
Zhao Qian kissed her, "Did I wake you up?"
"No, I'm working on a sketch."
"Drawing so late..." Although he knew it was her excuse, Zhao Qian still looked angry, "You should also take breaks while working."
"Yeah, I got it." The woman's face was full of happiness. After hanging up the clothes, she poured him a glass of water and asked, "Would you like something to eat..." When she turned around, she realized that the person was gone. She smiled.
, holding the water glass, she came to the corridor on the second floor, and she saw the door of the small room open. She walked over and saw him at the door carefully approaching the child's bed, like a thief, for fear of making any noise.
This is a little girl, about three or four years old, sleeping soundly.
Zhao Qian gently pulled the quilt that she had kicked aside back to her body, and then carefully and gently kissed her forehead.
"Have you been obedient lately?"
"It's okay, I just like to make trouble, like a monkey, hehe..."
"Like you."
"It's not like, exactly like you."
"Ho!"
"Shall I cook you some noodles?"
"No, I'm not very hungry. I'm going to take a bath first." After closing the door gently, Zhao Qian asked her to give her a sip of water in a childlike manner.
"Well, I'll give you some water..."
"No, let's come together." Zhao Qian leaned over and hugged her up.
"ah--"
"Shh."
"Um……"
…
Before dawn, the sky is darkest.
Zhao Qian touched the woman next to him. She was already fast asleep. He let go and covered her with the quilt. Then he took the cigarette and tiptoed to the balcony.
The full moon is still there, but it's tilted.
He looked back at the sleeping woman with a faint smile on the bed, revealing a hint of a smile. Only at this moment could he clearly feel the reality of being alive.
There was no hail of bullets, no broken limbs, and no intrigues... He lit a cigarette and took a puff, his eyes clouded in the smoke. Who would have thought that marrying a wife, starting a family, and raising children would be something he thought about more than a decade ago.
Things that I never dared to think about have now come true?
My only regret is that I spend too little time with you.
Zhao Qian looked back at her again, his eyes full of guilt. If possible... He looked at the dark night sky, his expression a little more lonely.
Um?
Suddenly, the cigarette was taken away from his mouth.
He turned around and realized that he was just stunned for a moment. She didn't know when she came out. She rolled her eyes at him, threw away the cigarette, then hugged him gently and snuggled into his arms. He was stunned for a few times.
Seconds later, he hugged her lovingly and stroked her hair gently.
"Do you have to go to work tomorrow?"
"Well, I have a meeting at 10 o'clock in the morning..." Zhao Qian hesitated for a moment, "I'll ask for leave..."
"No, work is important." She was a little disappointed, but still very considerate.
"It's not particularly important..."
"It's not necessary. Wenwen is on summer vacation and has plenty of time. Let's talk about it when we have time."
"Well, that's fine..." He didn't dare to tell her that he would probably be even busier in the next few months.
"I signed up Wenwen for a summer piano class..."
"Okay, good thing."
"Well, she had a lot of fun. Several teachers also said that she has talent, but I don't know if she can persevere... I thought, if she can persevere, I think we should buy her a small child.
Forget about piano, one lesson now costs more than 100 yuan, which is quite expensive..."
"Buy, buy."
"I knew you would say that, but this little girl is always hot for three minutes. Remember the violin I bought last year? It has been in the utility room for more than half a year..."
"Hey, she's still young."
"It's just that she's still young and I can't spoil her, so I think it's better to take another look and let her practice a few more classes. If she can persist, we'll talk about it."
"Well, that's fine, you make the decision."
"Well... by the way, a few days ago..."
…
Not long after, the white color of fish belly appeared in the east.
Then, the two of them realized belatedly that they had been chatting about trivial matters for more than an hour. They looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"I'm going to make some breakfast."
"It's too much trouble. We'll go out to eat later."
"Let Wenwen sleep a little longer. After eating, we will go out for morning exercise together. You haven't gone hiking with her yet." She had already planned it.
"Yeah, okay, let me help you..."
"No, you need to sleep for a while, otherwise you won't be energetic during the meeting."
"fine……"
"No need to say it, be obedient, go to bed, go to bed quickly, it can take half an hour, I will call you when it is ready, be obedient, be obedient..."
"..."
He was a little dumbfounded, but seeing her insistence, he had no choice but to obey. However, for a moment, his heart felt warm and weak.
However, there was really no sleepiness.
After a while, he picked up his phone and scrolled through some unread messages. From last night to now, in just a few hours, there were already dozens of trivial messages waiting to be answered. He read a few messages, got upset, and closed them again. He sneaked out.
room, he came to the corridor and peeked at her busy in the kitchen.
At one point, because of her anxiety, she burned her hand and twitched like an electric shock.
He was shocked and almost couldn't help but jump down. However, he still held back. He grabbed the railing with both hands, and the veins on the back of his hands protruded. After a while, he walked back and stood in front of the small room door.
After a while, he returned to the bedroom. After sitting on the edge of the bed for a few minutes, he put his hands together and his knees to cover his mouth, thinking for a long time. Finally, he raised his head slightly, as if he had made some decision, and his eyes flashed with light.
