Chapter 164 (1/2)
I reached out to take his arms wide, he Liancheng turned to the kitchen to clean the bottle. It's getting dark outside. I didn't see Yuanyuan and Tongtong in the living room. I looked up and asked, ”where are Yuanyuan and Tongtong?”
”We've been running for a whole day, and when we get tired, we'll go to bed. I'll tell them to get up for dinner later.” He Liancheng tried to divert my attention from the funeral.
I wake up Yuanyuan and Tongtong with Kuankuan in my arms. I watch them dressed and go back to the living room. He Liancheng has already arranged the meal prepared by his aunt. This is what I always want to get, the feeling of a rare home, trivial and warm.
It's the first time in a few days that the family has been eating together.
While eating, Tong Tong looked up at me, holding chopsticks in his little hand, and he just couldn't see the rice.
He Liancheng stopped his chopsticks and asked, ”do you not want to eat, or is it not delicious?”
”Can't grandfather come back in the future?” He looked at me and he Liancheng, then asked.
He Liancheng said with a smile: ”let's finish our meal first, and then the whole family will have a small meeting to talk about my grandfather, OK?”
The boy nodded and concentrated on the meal.
After dinner, Kuankuan fell asleep in my arms. I put him back in the crib, and suddenly I didn't have the courage to go back to the living room. I know the three men are still waiting for me in the living room, but I don't want to talk about Dad. I feel dull and painful at the thought of this title.
I hesitated for a while in the baby room. When I went out, the three seemed to have finished their conversation. Tong Tong climbed onto the back of the sofa, and the whole person was riding on he Liancheng's neck. Yuan Yuan tilted his little feet on the tea table, and took the picture book insects in his hand. He was absorbed in reading.
”You want to...”
”We're done.” He Liancheng interrupted me, ”you go to rest first. I'll give them two baths.”
I was relieved. I went to kiss Yuanyuan and Tongtong and said, ”mom is very tired. Go to sleep first.”
Two babies said good night to me. He Liancheng pointed to his face and said, ”good night, I still owe you one kiss.”
I ignored him, turned back to the bedroom, but slightly warm up in my heart. No matter how, no matter what happened, life will continue to move forward, never look back.
The first day I went back to work, there were so many things that I didn't even have time to drink. When I was about to leave work, I suddenly received a call from Liu Tian. As soon as he heard me say hello, he said directly, ”I want to see you tonight, OK?”
I hesitated for a while and said, ”it's OK to say something on the phone.”
He was silent at that end for a long time before he said, ”it's OK. I just want to see you.”
”I had a few days' rest. Today, I just started to work. I had a lot of work to deal with...” before I finished my words, I heard a beep coming from the microphone, and I hung up at a loss.
He Liancheng has a small mind, especially in this respect. I don't want to make any misunderstanding with him, but it makes me feel uncomfortable to refuse Liu Tian in this way.
Before work, he Liancheng sent me a message, saying that he would go to Hanhua to attend the board of directors in the evening, and he could not go home for dinner, so I didn't have to wait for him and went back by myself. I know he went to Hanhua, probably for our project. During this period, Hanhua project basically stopped. In short, the project will fail as much as it fails.
When I got off work, I thought whether I would take the initiative to call Liu Tian and apologize. I didn't look at the road when I was walking. Head down out of the elevator, all of a sudden hit a person, I busily said sorry, looked up, hit the person is Liu Tian.
He grabbed my arm with both hands and looked at me deeply without saying a word.
”What are you doing here?” I asked, somewhat at a loss.
Hearing what I said, his hand was like being burned. He stepped back and said: ”I... Want to see you.”
I looked up at the people coming and going at the rush hour, thought about it and said, ”find a place to sit down and have a chat?”
He didn't dare to look up at me, nodded casually, and his eyes fell on the green plants, just like the pot of big leaf green rose was a peerless fairy.
Sitting down in the teahouse, I pushed the tea list to him and said, ”I'll call home and talk about it.”
He didn't look very good. He ordered a pot of Xiangbi snail, let the tea artist go down, looked at me and said, ”I know that after you make a choice, I shouldn't pester you, but I can't help it.”
”You try to start a new relationship? Make a friend? Can I introduce you to an object? ” These words circled in my mouth, but I didn't have the courage to say them. I can't say these words unless I really want to hurt him.I hesitated until the tea artist brought up the tea, but I didn't say a word.
I was holding the cup, and the heat of tea came to my palm through the wall of the cup, and suddenly it was settled at this moment. I looked up at him and asked, ”how's your work these days?”
”Not bad.” He said one word, and then he seemed to have the courage to say, ”I heard about it, and I was worried about you... So I was restless. I'm relieved to see you today. ”
”Don't say that.” I interrupted him, pushed the cup in front of him and said, ”I've come across a bottleneck recently. Hanhua's project is about to go yellow.”
He then changed the topic and asked: ”he is very important in Hanhua. How can he say yellow is yellow?”
”The contract is written clearly in black and white. If they fail to do so, they will be compensated for their losses. It's all my fault. I only saw the attractive golden melon, but I didn't see a big pit behind it. ” I've briefly described the progress of Hanhua project.
The atmosphere between us finally broke away from the ambiguity, a bit like the normal chat between friends.
