Chapter 969 (1/2)
Those once familiar streets are now occupied by strangers. Zero walked on the narrow roads in the slums of that day, which are now even narrower. Everywhere you can see a simple tent on the side of the road, which makes the originally not spacious road more crowded. In the past, there used to be a small building with one family, but now I'm afraid I'll have to cram two or more people into it.
The population base of Rome city has reached a state of saturation. If the papal hall did not open all the materials and use them for the daily needs of the city's civilians, the daily food consumption of the city is an astronomical number.
But it was worth it. At least, Paul saved most of the civilians.
Civilians are the foundation of a country. Without them, the country will no longer exist. Today, the righteous performance of the papal hall has made Paul, the young Pope, win enough respect among the common people. Along the way, from time to time, when people talk about Pope Paul, they always add such words as great and kind.
Finally, zero stopped in front of a small building. On both sides of the building's door, there was a soldier on guard. It's really an awkward picture to see two guards in the slum, and the appearance of the guards also distinguishes the small building from the outside world. At first, some people objected. No matter who lives in the small building, they should not be treated differently. But once they know the owner's name, no one raised any objection.
Because the people who live in it, and her contribution to the whole continent, are enough to win this honor for her.
Her name is Cinderella, and the name itself represents a legend.
When zero one appeared, the two guards were very excited, and even wanted to enter the building to spread the news. Zero shook his head, stopped the soldiers, and then pushed the door open. The door is still familiar with the layout, which was once his residence in Rome for a short time. Originally, the small building will not leave too many memories, but with hindrella, even the most humble house will leave many good memories.
Into the simple layout of the living room, the floor is paved with a washed white carpet, with a set of wooden furniture that has been for some years. On the wall painted with gray color, a wall lamp with some cracks on the lampshade is on, and its dim yellow light is cast on a nearby oil painting of unknown heart. Oil painting uses simple color blocks to pile up pictures of the sea, blue sky, islands and sailboats. Not to mention artistic conception, but a cheap decoration, but to create a simple and warm atmosphere.
Windowsill, a pinch of Daisy placed in a glass bottle gently swing, so that a bright yellow, lit up the whole room.
At this time, a slightly hoarse voice came from upstairs: ”is that your highness Paul? Come on up, haven just fell asleep
Zero shivered, and that was Cinderella's voice. After years of absence, now I hear this familiar voice again. The excitement in my heart can't be expressed in words. He lightened his steps, walked up the revolving wooden ladder, passed through the corridor, and then pushed open the door of his bedroom. A familiar figure came into his eyes.
Hindrella is standing in front of the window with her back to the door. She is watering the bonsai in front of the window, humming a melodious tune. When she heard the sound of opening the door, she turned around with a smile on her face. But when she saw zero, her whole body was frozen, and even her smile was fixed in the previous moment.
”Here I am.” Zero soft channel.
The kettle fell to the ground and Cinderella was all over zero. Hot lips immediately sealed zero's mouth, hot body as if to squeeze into zero's body, two people close together, can't hold half a silk gap.
After a kiss, Cinderella gasped and separated from zero. Zero holding her face, staring into her eyes, for a long time did not speak. At this moment, the language seems so pale and weak, but the eye contact between them has surpassed a thousand words.
”I shouldn't have left you.” For a long time, zero just gently said: ”in that way, I don't have to think you think so hard.”
Hindrilla put her face to his chest and said with a smile, ”that's the most touching love story I've ever heard.”
He chuckled again, took zero's hand and said, ”come on, you have to meet him.”
Lead zero to the bed, on the bed, a fat little boy is sleeping soundly. ”Haiwen, isn't it? He is our... ”
”Yes, our baby.”
Zero reached out and pressed it gently on the boy's cheek. The boy murmured some vague syllables, then turned over and went on sleeping. Zero bent down and gave the child a kiss on the forehead. The boy seems to feel something, still in sleep, but ”giggle” up.
”He likes you.” Said hindrella.
Zero said with pride, ”of course, he is my child.”
He took Cinderella's hand again and said, ”have you had a hard time?”
”No Hindrella gently shook zero's hand back: ”I live in a fishing village. That's my hometown. I spent a happy year there. The arrival of Haiwen made my life full of brilliance. When I saw him, I was sure that he was the best gift from God. You see how much he looks like you. ”Hindrella gently reached out and touched the little fellow's chubby face.
Zero pulled her and said, ”come on, let's talk over there. Don't disturb the little guy's sleep.”
They sat by the window and zero said a lot to Cinderella. He mentioned a lot of things after he left the western continent, including seizing the dark core himself, and finally repelling the army that prohughes wanted to clean up the central continent. Zero said, and Cinderella listened, and time passed quietly in this quiet afternoon. It wasn't until Haiwen woke up and babbled that Cinderella got up and picked up the little guy.
Looking at the time, Cinderella said, ”come on, hold him. I'm going to cook. You have to change his pants. Well, would you? ”
One by one, he picked up the child and said, ”I'll try my best” with a determination and tone that is about to face a war
Cinderella chuckled, patted him on the shoulder and left. Zero lowered his head, the little guy looked at him curiously. It seems to be a blood relationship. Haiwen is not afraid of life. He reaches out to touch his face and giggles from time to time. Zero patted his little ass and said, ”Okay, baby. Let's make a good cooperation. It's just changing pants. Is it harder to deal with than prosius? ”
It turns out that there is no direct relationship between changing pants for a little guy and his ability. The whole process is almost messy. When hindrella pushes the door in, Linggang helps Haiwen change his pants. It's just that he's sweating, no less than a battle of life and death. Hindrella leaned against the door and laughed as she watched such snacks. Her heart was filled with warmth.
Dinner was ordinary, with bread, sausage and a salad. Although ordinary, at this time, such a dinner has been called sumptuous. You should know that the common people's ration food outside is only a piece of bread, but zero has never been picky about the food. He even enjoys the happy time of a family of three sitting around the table.
Haiwen is still young. Let Cinderella hold him in his hand. Like his other two unborn brothers and sisters, the little guy has shown great talent at a young age. From time to time, the water in the cup in front of Cinderella would pop up a few drops. The drops would rotate slowly in the air, occasionally gather together and fall back into the cup. If they splash a few drops, the little guy would laugh happily.
”He seems to have inherited your abilities.” Zero said.
Hindrella gave the little guy a kiss on the cheek and said, ”of course, he's the son of Hai.”
”Bess and Leah's baby is about to be born.” Here, zero said with a wry smile: ”I'm really an irresponsible father. When you give birth, I can't be around you.”
