That night, Si Lianye laid on her bed and had a dream. He dreamt of the indescribable things that Shen Xiran was doing with him, his scarlet, moist lips, misty eyes, and that pure white jade-like body. Everything made him deeply intoxicated, and he only wished that he could squeeze his entire body into her body, become one with her, and never be separated from her again.
When the last of his bliss came, he groaned and opened his eyes. The sunlight outside the window was white and very hot at first glance, just like the scene in his mind, but there was no sign of her in his field of vision.
He stared blankly for a moment before regaining his senses. He slowly leaned against the headboard, squinted his eyes, and thought about everything that had happened in the dream. He sighed, then for the first time, took out a cigarette from the drawer and started smoking.
He wouldn't smoke when he first met Shen Xiran, but when did he learn to smoke afterwards? It must have happened after that.
He slowly exhaled a mouthful of smoke, his sculpted face faintly discernible in the smoke. Ever since Shen Xiran appeared in his life again, for the sake of her body, he had given up on smoking.
But now, his emotions were too complicated, so he started smoking again.
He looked at the rest of the cigarette, stood up with a frown, dropped a box of good cigarettes into the trash, and went into the bathroom.
After washing up somewhere sticky, he threw away his underwear and went out to change the dirty sheets. However, the moment he stepped out of the bathroom, he heard a woman's scream.
He reacted extremely quickly and immediately retreated back into the bathroom. Because he lived alone, he did not wear any clothes, and even his underwear was taken off. In other words, he was as naked as a newborn baby.
"You … You are shameless! " Shen Xiran scolded angrily with a red face. He never thought that he would see such a eye-catching lens in front of his so early in the morning.
His reaction was too fast as he had already returned to the bathroom before he had even recognized her. Now that he heard that it was her, he couldn't help but smile as he wrapped a towel around himself and walked out.
"What are you shouting for? It's not like you haven't seen him before." He walked out casually.
Her face turned even redder. Although he was right, they had met quite a few times in the good times, but now, they were not that kind of relationship anymore.
She stomped her feet with a blush. "But even so, you can't …" "It can't be like this …"
"Can't what?" Si Lianye didn't know why she came to her room so early in the morning. Could it be that she had the same indescribable dream as him?
Although he knew this was unlikely, he still had that thought in his mind. He looked at her and smiled, "I'm just like this in my room. You entered on your own accord. How can you blame me?"
She had nothing to say, who asked her to … Oh right, she was here because of Le Le.
Her expression immediately changed, "Si Lianye, Le Le has a fever."
She didn't know why she didn't send Le Le to the hospital but looked for him instead. She only knew that as long as Si Lianye was by her side, she would feel a lot more at ease.
Si Lianye's expression became solemn, and a bit of charming thoughts disappeared from her mind as she joked around: "Is he sick? "Come, I'll take him to the hospital."
In his heart, she was still his son. Hearing that he was sick, she was even more worried than Shen Xiran, his mother.
Shen Xiran nodded hurriedly, and threw the awkwardness from before out of his mind as he quickly went to hug Le Le.
In the morning, when he woke up, she found Le Le still sleeping. His face was flushed red, and the moment he touched his forehead, he immediately panicked.
Seeing Si Lianye calmly carrying her child on the carriage, his heart felt a lot more at ease.
The two of them hastily sent Le Le to the hospital. After the doctors examined him, they said that it was a fever caused by a cold.
She heaved a sigh of relief, but in her heart, she couldn't help but be depressed. Not long after she took Le Le to the hospital, she let him enter twice more.
Si Lianye saw through her feelings and consoled her, "It might be that the child doesn't really like the soil and water, so you can slowly get used to it in the future. Don't be anxious, understand?"
She nodded slightly, but her brow remained furrowed.
Si Lianye thought for a while, then said to her: "Didn't you want to find a suitable kindergarten for Le Le? I've already sent someone to look for it. Someone just told me that I've found it. " Following which, he mentioned the name of a kindergarten.
After hearing that, all the worries in her heart flew away as she looked at him with wide eyes. "I heard that it's very difficult to get a placing in that kindergarten. How did you …"
He smiled. "It's hard to say only to ordinary people."
Everyone knew that it was not easy for the children in the country to go to a reliable kindergarten, especially those public kindergartens, where money might not even come in, and their parents had to be rich and have power, especially in a place like Capital where every inch of land was worth a fortune. The kindergarten that Si Lianye talked about was a very famous place, with very good teachers and education, and also a very good public kindergarten, where the annual tuition fees would have to be at least six digits, and the starting number was not even one.
Si Lianye had actually received this news yesterday, but he wanted to say it later and let her have a pleasant surprise. Who knew that Le Le would be sick now, so in order to soothe her heart, she had to announce it ahead of time.
Seeing the happy smile on her face, he felt that even if he destroyed his plan, it would still be worth it.
When Shen Xiran thought about it again, he knew that Si Lianye must have put in a lot of effort into this, so he sincerely said to him, "Thank you."
He replied, "There's no need to be so courteous, Le Le is also my son."
With an embarrassed expression, she explained, "Le Le is not your son, really."
With that, Si Lianye used a kind of "I understand, you don't need to explain" look at her, and swallowed the rest of her words.
She sighed deeply.
Le Le woke up very quickly, he was still young after all, and it was only after going through a long journey that he was able to get a high fever. After waiting for the doctor to treat his illness, Shen Xiran decided to bring a bunch of medicine with him to return home.
Originally, she had planned to take Le Le on a good tour and look for a few kindergartens near home. However, with him getting sick, all of her plans were ruined.
Le Le was sitting on the carpet and playing with a depressed look on his pale little face, but it was obvious that he was not paying attention in Shen Xiran's eyes.
When Le Le looked to the door for the eighth time, she could not help but ask: "Le Le, what are you looking at?"
Le Le retracted his gaze, and asked a little unhappily: "What about that Uncle Si?"
She suddenly realized that his son was distracted because he did not see Si Lianye. She explained gently: "Uncle Si has to go to work, he can't be like mother, staying at home everyday."
Speaking of which, her job as a special assistant was also very unqualified. Ever since she had received Le Le's offer, she had frequently applied for leave, not to mention that she had already left work. Fortunately, Si Lianye had not worked properly for the past few times, which made her feel a little weak in her heart when she thought about it.
Le Le replied with an "Oh" and lowered his head. After a while, he looked up at his mother and asked, "Then will Uncle Si come back after work?"
Shen Xiran was startled, he thought that with the man's current personality, it would be weird if he didn't come. However, he replied with a question, "Maybe he did, this mother is not sure either."
Le Le's expression fell again, his small mouth pouted but he did not say anything.
Shen Xiran looked at him and thought that Si Lianye really had a good method up her sleeve. She managed to hook her son's heart in just a few days.
He couldn't help but ask Le Le: "You seem to like Uncle Si a lot, why is that so?"
Le Le thought for a moment, then replied: "I don't know either, I just feel that the Uncle Si is very close, that they are very kind to me, and that it's very comfortable being with him."
Shen Xiran muttered in his heart, but on the surface he did not reveal it, but rather tapped him on the forehead: "Little traitor, Uncle Si only took a few days to take away your heart, you don't even like your mother anymore."
Le Le immediately nodded his head: "No, no, Le Le loves mother the most."
She looked at her son with a smile. "Really?"
Le Le nodded vigorously, "Of course it's true."
"Fine, I'll believe you only if you kiss me." She pointed to her cheek.
Le Le did not hesitate to throw himself at his mother, giving her a big kiss, with a loud "Pop" sound.
Shen Xiran stood up in satisfaction. "Alright, Mom will forgive you. Can I give you your favorite egg cake tonight?"
"Alright!" He cheered loudly.
Originally, Shen Xiran did not care about his body. He had even put a box of instant noodles at home, but after Si Lianye saw them, she dropped it. Now that his son was here, he naturally could not do so.
She took out the eggs and flour, found a little spring onion, washed them clean and chopped them into pieces. Then she mixed these three ingredients together, added a little salt and pepper, and opened fire. She added a little oil to the pan.
She did the same thing and made quite a few dishes. Then, she made two side dishes. With the long since cooked white porridge s, a light and tasty dinner was ready.
Le Le couldn't wait any longer, when he saw her bringing out the egg pancakes, he couldn't wait to run over and say: "Mom, it smells so good!"
She touched his head and smiled. "Good girl, of course the cakes Mom made are delicious."
After saying that, she rolled up a piece of biscuit with her chopsticks and gave it to him. "Be careful of the heat."
Le Le's eyes lit up as he looked at the golden, fragrant biscuit in his hand. He was about to bite down when the doorbell suddenly rang.
Just as she was about to pick up the chopsticks, she stopped in her tracks.
