"Come out and say it." Before leaving, I saw him tucking up Cheng Zi's clothes.
There was only a small desk lamp left in the bedroom. Song Weichen followed me and walked to the living room. The two bowls of noodles on the dining table were still steaming. I rubbed my hands and said embarrassedly: "It's so late, why don't you eat?" Get something and go."
"Um."
He pulled out the chair and sat across from me.
I looked at him nervously, not knowing if my level had dropped, but at this moment, I realized that the place where I had just been scalded had blisters, and it was excruciatingly painful when I touched it lightly.
I held back the pain and hid my hands behind my back.
He didn't notice my strangeness, but lowered his head and concentrated on eating the noodles in the bowl. I paused when I saw him take the first bite.
"Is it delicious?" I looked at him nervously, forgetting the pain in my hand.
He looked up and smiled slightly: "It's delicious."
"As long as it's delicious, eat more."
Only then did I sit down slowly, and took another bowl and stirred it in front of myself. It might have been made by myself, but I couldn't eat it.
"give it to me."
A pair of bony hands took the bowl from me, and I looked at him in surprise: "Can you still eat it?"
"Um."
The man eats quickly and gracefully, and he enjoys it just by looking at it.
In the silent night, such warmth made me let go of my vigilance during the day. Watching him finish the two bowls of noodles, the corners of my mouth raised unconsciously.
"what happened to your hand?"
Song Weichen put down the chopsticks, he pulled my hand forcefully with one hand, frowning tightly.
"It's okay, just a little burn." I tried my best to shrink back, but I couldn't resist his strength.
The red and swollen skin is even more hideous under the bright lights, and it does look a little scary.
"Where is the medicine cabinet?"
The man's voice suddenly cooled down, making my scalp tingle.
"It's really fine, I'll just apply some medicine later."
"Where is it?" He raised his head and looked at me with serious eyes.
Seeing him like this, I sighed softly: "It's in the second cabinet in the entrance."
Song Weichen let go of my hand and quickly found the medicine box.
"Come here." He walked to the sofa and ordered me to go over.
It was as if he had cast a spell on my feet, and I walked towards him unconsciously. Under the light, he gently raised my hand, and blew on it while applying the medicine.
No one spoke, and my beating heart seemed to be back to the beginning.
When the medicine applied to the worst part of the burn, I shrank back subconsciously, and he immediately raised his head: "It hurts?"
"fine."
He glanced at me: "Just say it hurts."
"It doesn't hurt."
"That's up to you."
"Song Weichen, what happened to you tonight?"
When I heard what he was concerned about one second, he became indifferent the next second, and I couldn't help it.
He held my hand for a while, and then said slowly, "Why don't you want me to touch oranges."
What he said was an affirmative sentence, not a question sentence. I thumped in my heart, and my face turned slightly pale. Was it so obvious?
"No."
"I said you lied and others can tell."
My eyes flashed slightly, and I said haha; "No, it's too late, I want you to go back and rest early."
"Song Ran is my daughter, and no one can change it. I want to get to know her as soon as possible."
"Can't!"
"Why?"
He slowly put down his hand, looked up at me with burning eyes: "Tell me the truth."
I bit my lower lip tightly: "Actually, I don't know, I just don't feel safe, that's why I rejected you just now."
Also, when I heard about Yan Yanzhi in the afternoon, I really panicked, and my guilt was about to overwhelm me. But these, I can't say.
"Didn't I give you a sense of security?"
"It's not Maybe it's because we've been apart for too long."
Sighing, I held back for a long time, and I could only say this sentence.
"sorry."
His voice is low, but I can hear loneliness and loneliness from it.
??You don't mind, I'm just talking casually, is the handbag ready? I'll take you downstairs. "
"No, I'll go by myself. Remember not to touch the water these few days."
When he got up, the shadow fell on me, and I got up with him: "Okay."
"Stay here with Cheng Zi, she is alone."
I opened my mouth, and it took me a long time to say hello.
He left, and the smell of him still remained in the air. I took a deep breath, and looked down at the bandaged palms, which were very neat, just like his meticulous attire.
After standing in the living room for a while, I slowly walked back to the room.
It was already early in the morning when I went to bed, and I fell asleep peacefully when I received a message from him that he had arrived at the hotel before going to bed, but this night, I slept very restlessly, and I kept tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
When the sky was slightly bright, I woke up.
Looking at the sleeping orange, I was careful not to wake her up. It was still early, I got up and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast, when everything was ready, I went back to the room, Cheng Zi had already sat up, looking at me ignorantly.
"Mother¡¡"
She called me in a coquettish voice, her eyes still sleepy.
"Baby, it's time to wake up. Mom will take you to kindergarten today."
"But I want to see grandma." She held her mouth, looking very unhappy.
"I promise to take you to see grandma after you finish school."
"Really?"
She confirmed it to me again with a crying voice.
"Mom promises!" I held up three fingers, as if swearing.
Only then did she let go, followed me obediently to get out of bed, helped her get dressed, and after breakfast, it was not far before the time for kindergarten to start. I hurriedly picked up my bag and rushed downstairs.
But as soon as I walked out of the corridor, I saw Song Weichen leaning against the side of the car as usual, I don't know how long I waited.
"uncle!"
Chengzi's reaction was faster than mine. She seemed to have a lot of affection for this "uncle" whom she had only met a few times. This was completely different from Yan Yanzhi's reaction when he spent two months getting close to her.
"orange."
When Song Weichen saw her, his cold face was full of smiles.
"Were you here last night?"
"No, I came here today."
"What a coincidence."
"Unfortunately, I'm here to deliver Cheng Zi to the kindergarten." He lowered his head slightly and looked at her dotingly.
"Send Cheng Zi to kindergarten?" Cheng Zi looked up at me strangely.
I patted her head: "Yes, uncle is here to take you to school."
This time, I didn't reject his overtures again, yes, as he said, he is Cheng Zi's father, and this is something that can never be changed.
"Then thank you uncle!"
"boarding."
He stepped aside and let us go up, but when the door was opened, I was still surprised. There was nothing on the back seat yesterday, but what is on it now?
