The Hope You Gave Me: 34-dad

From the first sight of Xin Qi, Zhou Ruji knew there was something between him and Min Hui.

The father and son look so similar, and he noticed it for the first time, and he couldn't help but feel resentment in his heart. It is said that there are no secrets between husband and wife. After four years of marriage, Min Hui has never said who his son's biological father is. Zhou Ruji kept his promise and never asked. He naturally likes confident and mysterious women, and it was because of this temperament that he was attracted to Yao Zizhu at the beginning. But the two have been together for so long, and he has seriously fulfilled his father's obligations to Su Quan. Min Hui never said it, which made him feel that this biological father is a ticking time bomb, and he will come back sooner or later to play a show of confessing his relatives. This has also led to the fact that although the relationship between the two is close, it can never reach the point of "saying everything". After all, it is not the product of passion and love, and there is always something in between. I didn't expect to get divorced before this issue was resolved. Zhou Ruji liked Su Quan very much and regarded him as his son. If it wasn't for this illness, he would have almost retired from the historical stage of Min Hui's family.

So Zhou Ruji felt that since the child's biological father came back, he would naturally want to get back with Min Hui, and he was a little redundant here, so he smiled and said, "There are still some things at the No. 2 father's house, I'll go back first, you guys can talk slowly. ."

As soon as Min Hui heard this, she thought that there was another patient in his family. Yao Zizhu's recent condition was also unstable. She ran to the hospital every three days, and quickly said, "Okay, then I won't send it."

After Zhou Ruji left, the ward suddenly became quiet. It was so quiet that you could hear the "sizzling" sound of electricity coming from the fluorescent tubes overhead.

No one answered Su Quan's question.

Min Hui thought to herself, Xin Qi knew she had a son, and of course she wanted to live with him. But Su Quan is still young, so she must live with her mother. At most, she can allow Xin Qi to visit, or occasionally pick him up for a day or two, or take him out for a vacation or something. She didn't want to monopolize this affection. But she still doesn't know what Xin Qi's situation is now. If he already has a family or even has a child, then it would be more troublesome for Su Quan to live in the past, and he would have to deal with Xin Qi's wife and children - this is a psychological test for a three-year-old child. heavy.

She couldn't help but glance at Xin Qi and found that he was looking at Su Quan with all his attention, as if he was admiring a world famous painting. Su Quan was also looking at him, studying him curiously. Min Hui couldn't help thinking that they looked at each other like a person looking in a mirror.

Except for her clothes and hairstyle, Xin Qi didn't change much, she still looked like she remembered, maybe it was set off by a suit and tie, and even more burly, so that when her back turned to her, her back looked like a mountain in front of her. .

She remembered the time they spent together, how happy, how sweet, how compatible, how tacit understanding - without Su Tian, ​​how suitable they would be, soul and body.

She saw the best side of Xin Qi and the worst side of Xin Qi.

It's all her fault, after all, it's all because of her pretending to be Su Tian.

She is not entitled to the beauty of Xin Qi.

She even felt it was a mistake to keep his child, especially after hearing what he just said. Why never thought of it? When she found out she was pregnant, she was full of joy, not because she could use her child to encircle Xin Qi, but because she felt that there was finally a bond of flesh and blood between her, Su Tian and Xin Qi. This child was born for Su Tian and Xin Qi by himself. It is the crystallization of their love and the continuation of Su Tian's life.

"Mom, Dad No. 1 is back, does he just live with us every day?" Su Quan asked again, the expression on his face as if he was afraid that Dad No. 1 would run away.

Min Hui couldn't help but froze for a while, does this child want a father to the point that no matter who it is?

After Zhou Ruji moved out, the deserted home became even more empty. Min Hui came back after picking up the child from get off work, and didn't have much time to play with him. Because there was so much work, she could only sit on the carpet with her laptop, writing programs and playing with Su Quan. The two had a sentence. Talk without a word. Su Quan knew that she was half-hearted, so she simply played by herself, watched TV by herself, and her character became more and more quiet. On the one hand, Min Hui felt that the child was too obedient and considerate, but on the other hand, she also felt that she had treated him carelessly. However, no work means no income, and Min Hui is the kind of person who immediately goes into a state of selflessness as soon as he writes a program. Fifteen minutes later, I simply ordered takeout, and the mother and son lived without a rhythm, like a chaotic war.

This is also the main reason why Su Quan misses Zhou Ruji. Zhou Ruji is very particular about eating. As long as he is at home, he will have three dishes and one soup. The meat and vegetables will not be repeated within three days. With him around, he will live very regularly, because Zhou Ruji is different from Min Hui, he will never think about work after leaving the operating room. Therefore, as long as he is at home, he is living a real family life, and when he is with Su Quan, he is actually playing. Unlike Min Hui, who was thinking about writing programs while taking a shower.

Men have a big appetite, and they eat up every two or three days when they buy food once, which forces them to often go to the market to buy fresh vegetables. After Zhou Ruji left, Min Hui bought vegetables once, but the girls didn't finish them for a week, and the vegetables were all rotten in the refrigerator. There is a lot of raw meat in the refrigerator, and every time I want to eat it, I forget to thaw it in advance. At the busiest time, Min Hui also had the idea of ​​hiring a nanny. Later, there were a lot of news about child abuse by babysitters on the Internet, and Min Hui was even more afraid.

Only if I care about the answer, I will ask again and again, so Min Hui can only answer vaguely: "Dad often travels on business, and may not live with us every day. But Dad and Mom will discuss this matter carefully. All good, it's bedtime, we have to brush our teeth and go to the bathroom."

Min Hui stood up and was about to walk to the bed, when Xin Qi stopped her: "I'll come."

"He just had a thoracotomy, so be very careful, for example—" Min Hui wanted to exhort her, but Xin Qi interrupted her contemptuously, "I know what a thoracotomy is, so I will do it myself. twice."

Min Hui had to shut up.

Because the operation was successful, Su Quan did not find any special complications after the operation. The doctor encouraged him to get out of bed and perform light activities, which could promote gastrointestinal motility and avoid pulmonary complications. Xin Qi gently helped Su Quan down from the bed, being careful not to touch his sternum, he took him with one hand, the toothbrush and towel in the other, and walked slowly to the bathroom not far from the door. She could hear the father and son. The voices of the two spoke, although it was not clear what they were talking about. After washing up, Xin Qi led Su Quan back slowly and put him back on the bed.

Probably thinks that his own father looks like a hero in the comics - tall, handsome and stylish - Su Quan smiled and looked at Xin Qi, shoving a Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale on the table into his In hand: "Dad, read."

Xin Qi took it calmly, flipped it over and said, "Dad also liked this book when he was a child. Which one do you like the most?"

“The Daughter of the Sea.”

"Well, yes, I like this too." He stretched out his palms, "HIGHFIVE!"

Su Quan didn't know what it meant, Xin Qi pressed Su Quan's five fingers on his palm and patted it high.

"HIGHFIVE!" Su Quan giggled.

Min Hui looked at them in surprise. She didn't expect the father and son to chat so naturally.

Xin Qi moved his chair, sat next to Su Quan, held up Shu Nian and said, "In the depths of the sea, the water is very blue, like the most beautiful cornflowers. At the same time, it is very clear, like The brightest glass. But it is so deep, so deep that no anchor chain can reach the bottom. To reach the surface from the bottom of the sea, there must be many, many church spires connected one after the other. The people at the bottom of the sea Live right down here..."

His voice is deep and deep, full of magnetism, reading slowly but vividly, as if he were playing a cello. Min Hui fell asleep while listening, and after an unknown amount of time, she was suddenly woken up by the vibrating messages on her phone, apparently with hundreds of WeChat messages on it. Min Hui has eight WeChat work groups, and almost all of her employees are night owls, who often discuss work in the middle of the night.

She gave a big yawn and found that Su Quan had fallen asleep. Xin Qi sat leaning on the chair, stretched out his long legs, and looked at her silently.

Only then did she realize that she was still wearing the red wine-splashed dress, she couldn't help but let out an "oh" and looked at her watch: "Yeah, it's twelve o'clock."

She slept for three hours...

"Why haven't you left yet?" she said.

"I want to stay a little longer."

"Are you hungry?" she asked.

He nodded: "Is there a restaurant downstairs?"

"The restaurant is closed, but I have instant noodles and a hot pot here." Min Hui remembered that Xin Qi had hardly eaten dinner and had been peeling shrimp for herself, and quickly said, "Can I make you a bowl of noodles? "

After speaking, he dragged out a box of Master Kong from under the bed: "What flavor do you like? Braised beef? Beef with sour soup? Sauce-roasted spareribs?"

He shook his head: "I don't eat instant noodles."

Min Hui took out her phone: "Then I order takeout with you?"

He shook his head again: "I don't eat waste oil."

Min Hui sighed: "My house is nearby, and there are still some vegetables in the refrigerator. Why don't you come home with me and I'll cook it for you?"

"No, I'll figure it out myself." He stood up, stretched his legs, and asked, "Are you going to be here with him every night?"

"Yes. Mainly I accompany me. Jia Jun has accompanied him once. The child will wake up in the middle of the night, and no one around will be afraid."

Xin Qi immediately said: "Then I'll stay here tonight to accompany him, you can go back to sleep."

Actually, Min Hui is very sleepy and exhausted. She still smells of sour alcohol. She urgently needs to take a shower. She still has some overtime work on hand. .

But she said: "How can you be embarrassed? You are not familiar with him..."

"He called me dad just now, didn't you hear?"

Having said this, Min Hui didn't dare to leave again, feeling that some things had to be discussed clearly: "Xin Qi, I don't mind if you come to the hospital or visit my child in the future. But I want to know—about Su Quan— What are your plans?"

"Which aspect do you mean?"

"Should you not live in Ben Thanh? Are you here for tourism or business? How often will you see Su Quanhui in the future? Often or occasionally? I need to know in advance, and it is convenient to give children a correct expectation ."

"According to psychological research, one to three years old is the bonding period of the emotional bond between father and son. Because of your nonsense, I have regrettably missed it."

Yes, complaining again. Min Hui said "Oh" in her heart.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault, is there any way to remedy it?" Min Hui said sincerely, "I'm willing to cooperate fully."

"It's very simple," Xin Qi's eyes were full of pressure, "Give me back the four years you owe me."

"I don't understand what you mean."

"Give me my child and let him live with me."

Min Hui's heart froze: "Then... what about me?"

"You are the director, you are busy with work and stressful, your life is sloppy, and you eat instant noodles every day. In addition, your personal problems... seem to have not been resolved. I think you can't take care of your child during this time, so you might as well leave him to me. You can come and see him anytime, and I'll reimburse you for your airfare."

Min Hui rubbed her hands and sneered: "What kind of work do you do?"

"Invest."

"Isn't it stressful to be busy with investing?"

"I can only say that I value family more, education more, and time management better than you."

"What if you find a nasty stepmother for my son?"

"You've already found a nasty stepfather for my son, and he's preconceived."

"Zhou Ruji is not annoying."

"I find it annoying."

"No." Min Hui stomped her feet, "The child must follow me."

"Give my son back to me. I won't mention Su Tian's matter." Xin Qi said, "It was not easy for you to take care of him for four years. Now, it's my turn. This is a great joy. things.”

"Xin Qi," Min Hui said anxiously, "I understand your feelings and believe in your abilities, but the child's growth is inseparable from his mother, not to mention that he has been living with me and doesn't recognize you at all."

"He didn't recognize me. You did it."

"No, absolutely not." Min Hui shook her head decisively, "The child lives with me, you can come to visit, the frequency is up to you, that's all, there is no room for negotiation."

"Then congratulations on **** me off again, Min Hui," he said coldly.
