Rebirth: Never Live Up to You - C90
“Why are you here? I’ve already resigned and you have nothing to worry about.”
“What did you have for lunch?”
“Not hungry enough for your son.”
The afternoon sun was very warm, so he took off his black coat and sat under the sun with a woolen sweater, holding a pot of tea made from flowers in his hands. After drinking it, he watered the flowers and plants on the terrace, which she had only bought with great effort and didn’t take care of as well. Some of them were already dead, while others looked like they were half dead.
After he finished watering the plants, he sat down and said seriously, “Warm Jin, we need to have a good talk.”
“Yeah, I think so too.”
She sat up in the reclining chair, the blanket still covering her body, and listened to him with extreme seriousness.
“Warm Jin, since our child already has one, shouldn’t we remarry?” She glanced at the same book which she also had in the drawer by the bed. In the days after the divorce, she had also looked through it, and every time she had looked at it, her state of mind was different, just like when she saw it again, she subconsciously looked away and didn’t want to look anymore, but then she heard him say: “Luojin, marriage is a city, and the key to open the city gate is in your hand. I don’t want to force you, I just want you to see your own heart, and you are also … “They care about me.”
However, she was very good at using it right now, so even if his attitude was extremely tough, she would not agree to it. On the contrary, he was a bit weaker than her, and with a tone of discussion, she was at a loss as to what to do. The hand holding the cup trembled a little, and she sipped the scented tea, looking at the brilliant sunlight in the sky and said: “You, let me think about it.”
Chi Yinan nodded and didn’t say anything else. He opened the door with the clothes on the sofa and took the sheepdog with him.
He had just come out of the coffee shop to receive a call from Chi Yinan, and he had hurriedly rushed back to his living quarters. He lived in a single apartment in the upper levels, so the security of the apartment was very high. Thus, Chi Yinan had been stopped outside the district with a dark expression.
Just a moment ago, everyone came to celebrate and let Jiu Qing have a good time. She would pass through the birds with a poke at a picture. This was the essay written by her sister, “Warm Marriage in Southern Spring”.
“Speed is exactly what you are. If you have a younger sister asking you to come pick her up, then this speed is definitely not what you are going to do.” Chi Yinan glanced at the wristwatch on his wrist and spoke mockingly. Lu Ziteng rubbed his nose, his face full of colors, his heart full of muscles.
He opened the car door and the sheepdog jumped off happily. Lu Zichao did not have a good impression of the dog, after all, the same taste with the dog hit his young and weak heart, so he had to take a few steps back. The sheepdog was not afraid of humans, it sniffed and moved around his legs.
“Since it likes you so much, I’ll leave it here for a while.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Ziyun’s face turned pale with fright. He hurriedly jumped away from her: “My dog hair is allergic, I’m really allergic.”
Chi Yinan glanced over with a gentle gaze. Lu Zixiao shut his mouth meaninglessly, pouting like a little wife, “I’ll take good care of it. With it here, it’ll die.”
Now, Chi Yinan was rather satisfied with his performance. He squatted down and rubbed the sheepdog’s head, “Warm Jin, I’ll hand over my care to you. Zixiao, thank you.”
He lowered his head and looked at the sheepdog wagging its tail, unsure of whether to laugh or to cry. What was the current situation? Warm Jin, she was also known as Warm Jin. Chi Yinan, why did you send the dog over to him?
It had been two days since their last conversation, today was the weekend, she was wearing a thick coat and was planning to walk around in the sun, it was not good for her body to be cooped up in the house, it had been closed in recent years, the streets were very lively, many people were buying New Year’s gifts, with large bags in their hands, and family members chatting and laughing as they brushed past her, at this time she always felt lonely, alone, there was no one to talk to.
“Boss, give me some sugar and fried chestnuts.”
It was sweet, fragrant and very tasty. After eating a few of them in a row, she felt a little thirsty, so she went to the other side of the street to buy a cup of fruit juice. Just as she was about to tear open the straw and go, the fruit juice in her hand was taken away.
“Let me do it.”
Chi Yinan was wearing a thick coat the same color as her today. He wore a black scarf around his neck and didn’t wear gloves. He took the juice from her and touched her hand with his fingertips. It was warm.
“Drink it. There are too many people outside and too many cars. Watch how you walk.”
Chi Yinan took the bag of chestnuts from her hand and followed her steps. Ahead of her was an arched stone bridge, and under the stone bridge were a few steps leading up, and under the bridge was an artificial river, and under the arch was an artificial river. She stood at the highest point of the arched bridge, drinking juice, and Chi Yinan was standing there, an arm’s length away from her.
“I don’t want to eat it.” She turned around and continued walking, getting off the arched bridge. She walked as fast as she could, leaving Chi Yinan two meters behind her, and when she reached the exit of the path, she turned around and actually couldn’t see him. She searched through the crowd for a long time, but still couldn’t find him.
After walking a few steps back, suddenly, someone patted her shoulder. She turned around with a piece of pink cotton candy in her hand, coughed twice, and said: “Just now, someone was cooking over there, I bought one. It’s a strawberry taste.”
Chi Yinan didn’t like this kind of sweet food, but she liked it a lot. Looking at the soft pink cotton candy, she took a bite, it was sweet and tasty, and there was the taste of strawberries, no, there was also the taste of cream.
She slowed down her pace and finally stopped. Chi Yinan who was walking in front of her also stopped and looked at her with a pair of bright eyes.
She took out the diamond ring from the cotton candy and threw it at him snappily, hitting him right in the chest. The diamond ring fell to the ground and disappeared into the dry grass: “Chi Yinan, you want to kill me?”
“Su Wenjin, you really don’t understand. If this was murder, how many women in this world would want to be murdered?” She was still staring at him with her big eyes and puffed up her cheeks. Chi Yinan took a step forward and forcefully pulled her hand to put on the diamond ring, then he kissed the back of her hand and said shamelessly, “Su Wenjin, you are mine now. This is my imprint.”
She lowered her head, the back of her hand was still warm from his kiss, and his hand was still holding hers. The two temperatures fused together, was it because the sunlight was too bright today, or because his eyes were too bright, she was dazzled.
“Chi Yinan, you really are a scoundrel.” She shook it off.
“Thank you for your praise, but before that, mother, can we go remarry?”
“No.”
She awkwardly struggled out of his embrace. Bringing the diamond ring back on didn’t mean that she was going to remarry. In the end, they still didn’t succeed.
Because she was pregnant, she moved back to Xi Hai from her previous apartment. The two of them seemed to have returned to their old married life, but never went through the marriage procedures. On the day of New Year’s Eve, Chi Yinan drove her back to the Chi family.
Due to the departure of the old man this year, the family had been covered with a faint layer of injuries, but the appearance of a new life had also comforted the family. After all, the children were the injuries of their hearts, the New Year’s Eve meal was prepared personally by Gu Huiru, and Lin Jingsheng was also there, sitting on the sofa outside and chatting with his father-in-law, Chi Yinan. She and Chi Yinan stood on the balcony and watched the fireworks in the night.
Chi Yinan came into the room and put on a coat for her.
“It’s not cold. What is dad talking about with Jing Sheng?”
“Jing Sheng? Hmph, how would I know? ”
Chi Yinan hated Su Wenjin the most. He was Lin Jingsheng, and Su Wenjin liked him the most.
“Chi Yinan, are you childish?”
“So what if I’m jealous? Don’t tell me you’re not allowing me to be jealous?” Tonight, when Lin Jingsheng arrived, she left him to chat. The two of them were talking and laughing, and if he didn’t bring her to the balcony to watch the fireworks, who knew how long they would have been chatting.
