Crocs suceurs de sang - Chapitre 19
"Mom, am I pretty?" Mi Xian asked.
"Of course you're beautiful, you're the most beautiful girl in the world." Xianjing stroked her long, soft, black hair, which had grown quickly since she was little, just like her own hair when she was a child.
"It's a pity I can't see." Little Fairy sensibly burrowed into the blanket.
That's because you're so alluring, God couldn't resist taking a bite out of you, so you can't see it. Xianjing looked at her angelic face.
God is a bad guy. Ye Mixian can't tell day from night; it's always night. She hates God for biting her.
Ye Kai, who was on the other side of the bed, climbed out from under the covers and touched Ye Mixian's empty eye sockets with his little hands. "When I grow up, I'll give you one of my eyes."
Xianjing's heart was filled with both happiness and sorrow. She turned off the lights and closed the door.
Let it continue like this, without letting you know I have our children, without letting you know how clever and well-behaved they are, without letting you know how I miss you, without letting you know how much I love you, how much I need you, how much I long for you. I miss you in the summer night sky, where fireflies and will-o'-the-wisps dance, and the lotus leaves in the pond sigh at your absence.
(The Finale)
It's really disappointing to have someone disturb your sweet dreams so early in the morning.
Anzhu angrily told the person taking possession of the house, "I'm not moving, I'm not moving, no matter how much money you offer."
The man who came to negotiate this time was a bearded man. He was scolded, and when he returned to the boss's office, he was scolded again.
"I'm in trouble too," the bearded man said. "That woman was really fierce; I almost got beaten up."
"Never mind, I'll figure it out myself." Xie Qiqi waved her hand and said, "Go out."
Xianjing said, "I've dragged you into this. How about this: you take the money they give you and buy a new one, and I'll go rent a place with the kids."
"What are you talking about? The money they gave us is only enough to buy a one-bedroom apartment. How are we supposed to live there?" Anzhu shook her head. "How about we sell this house after Zhao and I get married? I think only the people across the hall and I don't want to move now."
That's all for now, let's go to work together.
Xiao Fang is the new nanny, a relative of An Zhu from her hometown. She's sixteen, hardworking, and not very tall, but she's a high school graduate. Ye Kai and his sister can already recite poems like "Hoeing the Rice at Noon, Goose, Goose, Goose."
Before breakfast, the two siblings recited poems. After they finished, Xianjing kissed them on the forehead. Mom went to work. She said that she would ask Aunt Xiaofang to bring them to the store to play in the afternoon.
Okay. Ye Mixian loves going out. She can bask in the sun, and even though she can't see it, she can still feel its warmth.
Anzhu officially became the godmother of the two children and treated everyone to a meal to celebrate. Xianjing joked, "She's just a godmother, not a godmother. She's probably bewitched by her boyfriend who returned from overseas."
The weather was lovely. After lunch, Xianjing waited for the children at the shop entrance. It was Friday, and the shop manager wasn't there; Xianjing was the manager, so she let the children come and play to pass the time easily.
Three figures could be seen in the distance. Ye Kai called out, "Mom, Mom!"
Xian Jing took out some snacks for the three of them. Ye Kai took out a piece and fed it to Ye Mixian, then fed her milk. He couldn't hold the cup steady and spilled it all over the table. He was at a loss and cried sadly.
The nanny, Xiaofang, quickly cleaned up the broken glass on the table, saying, "Don't cry over spilled milk."
Xianjing paused her work and looked at her, as if she were getting to know the nanny Xiaofang all over again.
There weren't many customers; most just bought bread and left. As it was almost time to close, Xiaofang said to her two children, "Auntie's going to buy groceries now. You two wait patiently, okay?"
"Okay!" they both said in unison.
Xianjing bent down to clean up the bread crumbs that had fallen from the counter.
"Hello, Uncle, welcome." Ye Kai looked at the newcomer and imitated Xian Jing's tone, saying "Welcome, Uncle."
Hehe, Ye You patted his head, "Little boy, you're so sensible." She said to the counter, "One pound of whole wheat toast."
Xianjing looked up, and there it was.
Ye You's smile froze. She had imagined their meeting a thousand times, but now that they were actually together, she was speechless with emotion.
"Your child?" Ye You asked. "Whose child?"
Xianjing wiped the table with a rag. In short, it's not yours.
"Oh," Ye You nodded, took the bread, and paid. After Xie Qiqi disappeared, she was still living alone. She heard from Lao Luo that the bread at this bakery was incredibly delicious.
Xiao Fang, carrying groceries, stood at the door. "Kai Kai, Mi Xian, let's go home."
Ye You looked at her in confusion, and Xian Jing's tears fell.
"Mom, why are you crying?" Ye Kai walked over and took Xian Jing's hand.
"Don't you want a dad? Call him then!" Xian Jing cried as she grabbed Ye Kai and pushed him next to Ye You. "Call him then! Call him dad!"
Ye Kai cried and threw himself into Xian Jing's arms, "I don't want my dad, I want my mom."
Ye Mixian groped her way over, "Brother, Mother. Where are you?"
...
Come back. Ye You kissed Xian Jing, realizing how much she loved him despite all the hurt.
I am not the same person I used to be. You can take Ye Kai if you want, but Ye Mixian is blind, so you can leave her with me. Xian Jing broke free from Ye You's embrace. I called you upstairs just to have a proper talk with you, nothing more.
Don't leave me again, I'm sorry. Ye You hugged Xian Jing tightly. I'm sorry, I love you.
Tears fall, I wait for you, say you love me, I've waited so many years, it may not be too late. You left, vanished in the lingering time. The wind is silent, love smiles in the corner.
The child was taken for a walk by Xiaofang, while Anzhu was on a date and had not returned.
It felt like going back to a long time ago. Xianjing's body was burning with desire, and she pressed herself against him recklessly. On the sofa, on the floor, on the balcony, in the kitchen, she bit him wildly. Love and hate were intertwined, which further stimulated the two bodies that had reunited after three years. They continued until they were both so exhausted that they were almost fainting and panting. Xianjing got dressed.
Come back with me. Ye You sat on the sofa. The little girl and Xiao Fang were already downstairs.
Come pick me up tomorrow morning. I need to discuss it with Anzhu; you can take the child first.
Looking at Xianjing and the child, Ye You suddenly felt that she had everything. The world had taken a turn for the better, and it turned out that her beloved was right beside her.
Sitting in the car, Ye Kai held Ye Mixian's hand tightly and comforted her, "Xianxian, don't be afraid. Mom will be with us tomorrow."
Ye You looked at the two children with pity in the rearview mirror.
Anzhu returned late at night, overjoyed and at a loss for words. "That's wonderful! It should have happened a long time ago. You two really like each other, and now you've finally made up."
"Go to sleep. We'll have dinner together tomorrow." Xianjing went inside.
In her dream, Ye You was hugging herself, tighter and tighter, feeling very hot. Very hot, very hot, and when she opened her eyes, the room was filled with smoke.
...
Ye You got up early in the morning, while the two children were still sleeping.
There's another traffic jam ahead; Beijing is basically a parking lot. I turned on the radio to listen to the traffic station, and during the news break, it said that at 3:00 AM, a fire broke out in a demolition area on Ping'an Avenue. The fire is now under control, but some wooden structures have been completely burned down and collapsed. According to preliminary investigations, arson is suspected, and police are detaining real estate development company personnel at the scene. The road is temporarily closed due to the fire; please take an alternate route.
Ping An Avenue?
Ye You parked the car on the side of the road and sped off.
Amidst the ruins, wisps of smoke drifted silently through the air.
God made me love you, but my eyes cannot see the way you left.
Ye Mixian suddenly woke up, giggling, and walked to the sleeping Ye Kai's side, reaching out her little hand towards one of his eyes...
