The female one was naturally Zheng Keer's. The male one, there was no need to guess, it was prepared for Lou Shaotang.
The unhappiness in his heart that had just been suppressed immediately began churning again.
My heart tightened slightly. Was she being magnanimous, or was she pretending to be stupid?
Just as he reached the sofa, the chandelier above his head lit up. I was able to see what was going on in the room.
It was a two-bedroom, one-room suite. The lobby wasn't very big, with a three-person cloth sofa against the wall, a long glass coffee table in front of it, and a 42-inch LCD TV on a TV cabinet three meters away.
The hall was connected to the balcony, separated by a large floor glass door, and on the left were two bedrooms, with the washroom at the side and the kitchen opposite of the bedroom.
"Take a seat, I'll get you a glass of water."
Zheng Keer's gentle voice pulled my attention back to the room. I watched as she went to the kitchen and sat on the sofa. She had only briefly checked the layout of the room but now she noticed the decorations inside.
"Tianyue City" is a well-decorated apartment, the style of the European style atmosphere is simple, but the room is full of comfort and warmth.
There was a ceramic kitten on the hall shoe cabinet; a string of lilac petal bells hung from a crystal chandelier. At this moment, a breeze blew in, causing the bells to ring sweetly.
There were a few Photo Frame s on the TV cabinet. One of them was a treasure trove that Lou Shaotang had once viewed as a treasure. After that, I made the mistake of thinking that Zhong Ruoqing tore it up out of anger.
He felt a little sour inside, but he quickly covered it up and looked back at the back of the sofa as if he was ignoring it.
On the wall behind the sofa hung a three-piece landscape painting, and on the back of the sofa stood a row of lovely young men.
Heh, she's quite girly.
I couldn't help but smile mockingly. Then he turned to look at the tea table.
There were champagne roses and stars in white porcelain vases on the coffee table, and a few financial magazines beside them.
Looking at the magazines, my eyes twitched, these were Lou Shaotang's favorite books. Then, his gaze shifted to the crystal ashtray at the side. Zheng Keer did not smoke, who did this for, even a fool would know.
He couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Didn't he say that he had only lived here for a short while, and he didn't have the time to buy slippers, so he bought all the other decorations and things for Lou Shaotang.
But according to Lou Shaotang, other than the day she moved over, he had never visited again.
Seeing her make such sufficient preparations, she must be really looking forward to Lou Shaotang's daily visit.
He sneered in his heart once again.
Just then, Zheng Keer walked out of the kitchen with two cups of water. Lou Shaotang also walked in from outside. His eyes fell on my feet, and she frowned. "Wife, why are you barefoot?" She bent down and picked up the pair of male slippers, then strode over to me and squatted down. "Put them on quickly. Don't catch a cold." Lift my feet and put the slippers on my feet.
My feet had been cold at first, but now they were warm with his considerate gesture, and my heart was warm with them.
Raising my head with a bright smile, I turned and looked at Zheng Keer. She originally wanted to call out to Lou Shaotang, but Lou Shaotang didn't see her, he had only placed his attention on me. At the moment, her gaze was fixated on the hand Lou Shaotang was helping me wear shoes with a smile at the corner of her mouth, but her face was slightly pale.
Lou Shaotang stood up and immediately passed the water to him. He said with a gentle smile: "Shao Tang, drink some water."
"Thank you." Lou Shaotang took it, did not drink, and placed the cup on the table.
Hearing this polite "thank you", Zheng Keer's face stiffened.
I was secretly happy. These two simple words indicated that Lou Shaotang and her relationship was distant, and that he was truly his friend.
But I didn't show it, and instead asked Lou Shaotang, "How did the electric lock jump?"
Lou Shaotang lowered his rolled up sleeves, "I just checked and found out that the fuse was cut off."
Hearing that, I immediately looked towards Zheng Keer, I don't know why, but the first impression I got was that she did it.
"Ah?" "It was cut off?" Zheng Keer was surprised and asked puzzledly: "How was it cut off? "Who's the prankster?"
I kept my eyes on her face, trying to catch any hint that she might be lying, but her expression was so real that it didn't look like she was lying at all.
It seems that I am a petty person.
I curled my lips in self-mockery.
"Ke Er, actually, there's no need to be so anxious. Since you're sleeping with the lights off, tomorrow's cultivation will be different." I don't understand why she would call Lou Shaotang so late in the night. Repairing the electric lock was not an urgent matter.
"Ke Er is afraid of the dark, so she turns on the night-light even when she sleeps at night." Before Zheng Keer could reply, Lou Shaotang had already spoken first.
I was stunned, a wave of bitterness overflowed from my heart.
Ten years ago, he still remembered her habits!
No wonder he asked me to accompany him into the room earlier. It turns out that he remembered that she was afraid of the dark.
Zheng Keer blushed and smiled at me in embarrassment.
"So it's like that. It's better if you prepare an emergency light. If the fuse is accidentally cut the next time, there's no need to hurry for it in the middle of the night. "
Perhaps because I felt uncomfortable, I couldn't help but rush into the conversation. By the time I realized it, it was already too late.
Zheng Keer lowered her head and bit her lips, "Sorry, I, in the future, I won't disturb you guys this late anymore. "I'm sorry." Her voice was getting softer and softer, full of guilt, and she seemed to be crying a little.
Lou Shaotang looked at me. Although he did not scold me at all, but I felt bad about it myself. I awkwardly cleared my throat and turned my face away.
"Ke Er, that's not what Tu Ying meant. Don't take it to heart." He smiled and comforted Zheng Keer, then said: "She speaks like that too, likes to joke. You'll know in the future, it's good that you get used to it."
Hearing that he helped me get things over with, and gave me some steps back, my heart warmed, and I immediately said to Zheng Keer: "I'm sorry, Ke Er. I was joking with you."
Zheng Keer raised her head and smiled gently, "I know." She asked us, "Oh right, are you hungry? I'll go cook some supper for you." Just as she was about to go back to the kitchen, she was stopped by Lou Shaotang, "There's no need, let's go. Tu Ying needs to sleep before 12 o'clock every day."
"Right." "Shao Tang and I are making people, so we can't sleep too late."
Seeing Zheng Keer's frozen expression, I laughed inside, that's what I said on purpose. But it wasn't a lie, it was a fact.
The doctor told me to be careful not to overwork the child. So I now live and rest very regularly every day, and even what to eat is strictly in line with the preparation of pregnancy encyclopedia.
Lou Shaotang helped me carry my bag, held my hand, and said to Zheng Keer: "Alright, you should rest early as well."
On the way back, Lou Shaotang saw that I was looking out the window and not saying a word, so he asked in confusion: "What's wrong, wife? Why are you so depressed? Weren't you fine just now?"
What he said was right. My heart is rather heavy, because I can still clearly remember his habit towards Zheng Keer when I think of him sleeping. This was something he had only said when there was a power outage. Perhaps it was just the tip of the iceberg, he still remembered her many, many habits.
"What does Zheng Keer like to eat?"
Being asked like that by me, Lou Shaotang was stunned, but he was even more confused: "Why do you ask this?"
"I wanted to treat her to a meal, so I wanted to get to know her taste." I lied without flushing.
Lou Shaotang frowned, as if he was trying really hard to remember. A moment later, he shook his head: "She seems to eat everything, not being picky about food."
"Heh, I remember him very well."
Hearing that my tone had instantly become taunting, Lou Shaotang then realised that he had jumped into my pit, and started choking. The corner of his mouth twitched, and immediately laughed again, "You're jealous?" Hold my hand.
Looking at him with his eyebrows raised and his face full of pride, I retorted in a bad mood, "Are you jealous? "You wish!" Annoyed, he pulled his hand back.
But he wouldn't let go. He clenched his fists tighter and said, "I just don't remember. That's why I said she eats everything."
"Don't remember?" I scolded him, choking him. "Then how can she remember if it's dark? She didn't even forget to turn on the night light when she was sleeping?"
The more I spoke, the angrier I became. I pulled my hand back.
Lou Shaotang sighed, making me smile helplessly, and explained, "It's not like I lost my memories, isn't it normal for me to remember some things? "But that doesn't mean I take her seriously. It only proves that I have a good memory, that's all." He held my hand again, pulled me to his lips and kissed me. "Right now, the only one who lives in my heart is a woman named Tu Ying."
He looked at me deeply, his eyes bright and gentle. I looked at him, and my heart sank into the honey.
"Such flowery words." My mouth grumbled at him, but I couldn't hide my sweet smile.
Seeing that I was finally smiling, Lou Shaotang smiled even sweeter than me. "Wife, I love you."
It made me happier to hear him say that he loved me without being stingy.
That night I had a dream that I was pregnant and a beautiful girl. After waking up the next day, he would immediately go to the bathroom to get a pregnancy test.
The two bars I had been looking forward to did not appear. I was very disappointed and said to Lou Shaotang who was walking in: "Hubby, we failed again this month."
Lou Shaotang didn't even look at the results of the pregnancy test and directly took it out from my hands and threw it into the trash can. He said unconcernedly: "It's fine, let's continue to work hard."
"What's the problem?" Lou Shaotang retorted, as he comforted me, "We are both so healthy, there won't be a problem. Don't let your thoughts run wild." He squeezed the toothpaste onto my toothbrush and handed it over to me. "Quickly brush your teeth and go down to eat breakfast. I let Liu Sao make your favorite shrimp dumplings and beef porridge."
Seeing that he didn't seem to be worried at all, I stopped putting so much pressure on myself. Smiling, I gestured for him to cheer me on. "Alright, let's continue working hard."
Because there was an important meeting in the morning, Lou Shaotang only ate a few bites before leaving for the company. I sat alone at the dining table and slowly enjoyed Liu Sao's cooking.
Liu Sao originally could not cook Cantonese food, but it was Lou Shaotang who had taught her how to. And Lou Shaotang only learned it because I liked him.
As he drank the porridge one mouthful at a time, his entire body and mind was once again nourished by Lou Shaotang's considerate heart to become sweetly warm.
Picking up a prawn dumpling, she caught a glimpse of Lou Anqi walking in from the outside. Seeing me, she had an apologetic look on her face. She called me apologetically, "Sister Xiao Ying."
I smiled graciously at her. "Good morning."
Surprised, she hastily pulled out the chair opposite me and sat down. She asked in disbelief, "Sister Xiao Ying, you're not blaming me?"
I know what she meant by that, why didn't I blame her for hiding the truth about Zheng Keer from me?
I really didn't blame her, so I said, "Blame you for what? This has nothing to do with you. "
Seeing that I wasn't lying, Lou Anqi slightly heaved a sigh of relief, then immediately asked me carefully: "Then are you and Brother Shao Tang alright?"
"We're fine." I was smiling, and happy.
Seeing that she had patted my chest like she was patting a huge rock, I put down my chopsticks and asked: "An Qi, can you tell me about Zheng Keer?"
"Huh?" As if he was suddenly struck by lightning, Lou Anqi's relaxed expression instantly turned into shock, and his eyes opened wide. It took him a long time to react. "You, what do you want to know?"
