Rebirth: Never Live Up to You - C60
When he didn’t pick it up, she put it on his leg. This was clearly a refusal, and Chi Yinan could clearly see it, but he didn’t like it at all. The cold war between them these days was not as intense as it used to be, but the helplessness that lingered around them made him unable to breathe and he childishly threw his coat back into her arms.
She stared at the coat in her arms and didn’t throw it back. She closed her eyes and decided to take a good rest. Chi Yinan felt like he was punching cotton, and felt extremely irritated.
At two o’clock in the morning, she woke up from her sleep, touched the cold bed beside her, turned over and got out of bed to turn on the light. Under the light, she saw her lonely figure, the slightly cold and moist air, and her stomach was a little hungry.
The refrigerator in the kitchen was filled with food. She took two tomatoes and a box of shrimp and made herself a bowl of extremely simple noodles, and in the steaming mist, she ate a small mouthful of it, forcefully suppressing her nausea. Finally, she ate half of the bowl and looked at the clock on the wall, and it was already 3 in the morning. She emptied the remaining half bowl, cleared the bowl and chopsticks, and went upstairs to her bed.
The next day, she got up and had the driver take her back to the quiet garden. Originally, she wanted to go see her mother-in-law Gu Huiru, but when she arrived, the servant told her that the madam had gone to attend a charity banquet. Since she had already come, she went upstairs to look for the old man, but before she could open the door, Lin Jingsheng’s voice came from inside.
She was shocked. It was unknown whether she was walking in or out of the door with her hand, but the old man’s voice came from inside, “Warm Jin, come in.”
She pushed the door open and saw Lin Jingsheng get up to refill the old man’s tea cup. There was a game of chess on the table, the old man had been a little repulsed the last time they met, but this time, he couldn’t be repulsed anymore. In the end, it was normal for the old man to care for Lin Jingsheng, who was the Chi family’s grandson.
“Grandfather, the weather has turned cold recently. Be careful to keep it warm.”
She smiled as she walked in, taking down the blanket from the sofa to cover the old man’s legs, then glanced at the board game. Hei Zi and Bai Zi’s strengths were about the same, but she knew Lin Jingsheng’s chess skills. They were no worse than Chi Yinan, and it might even be better.
“You won’t be able to get cold even if you stay in the house. Instead, you should be more careful while carrying your child.”
As soon as the old man finished speaking, Lin Jingsheng pulled a chair over from beside her and placed it behind her. She didn’t refuse and sat down, right between them, in the warm sunlight, so that the shadows of the three of them could be seen on the floor.
