When I heard Li Jie's words, I couldn't help but start to laugh, "What kind of happiness do I have? Didn't you see Xie Zongming together with a woman?"
Li Jie's eyes dimmed, "Men."
"Yeah, a man." Zhou Jin's face flashed in front of my eyes. When I was completely disappointed in my man, he had appeared in front of me.
I came to him because he was handsome and clean, and I thought he was just an ordinary labourer who could be given a little money to get rid of, but I didn't think the more I got to know him, the more reluctant I was to send him away.
His eyes were very clear and clean, and when he looked at me he gave me that little animal pleading look he needed me, and he was willing to give up his superior terms for me, and I kind of liked him for that.
"What are you thinking?" Li Jie waved her hand in front of her eyes, "We have arrived."
"Nope." "So soon."
Li Jie and I got out of the car. The flowers in the park were blooming just right.
This was a new park built last year, said it was in response to some call, spent a lot of money to build the park.
It was the perfect time for the garden to bloom. Many people were sitting on the grass with picnic baskets.
Li Jie and I were also sitting under a tree. This tree was filled with pink flowers, and each and every cloud was like soft clouds falling onto the tree.
The driver brought out a picnic basket for Li Jie, and then affectionately placed the food in the basket on the tablecloth. There were sandwiches, sushi, salad and fruits.
"I prepared these myself." Li Jie smiled as she handed the sandwich box over to me. "Nanny is always fighting over everything, so I can only lie on the bed everyday."
I took the sandwich and smiled. "It's better if you don't do housework when you're pregnant, but you can't stay in bed all the time. I've never had a baby, but I know it's good for the body."
After Li Jie heard what I said, she covered her mouth and laughed, "En, I know that as well. However, I was doing exercises at home, and if I was not careful, I would have bled."
"Then what is it?" I asked.
Li Jie laughed, as if she did not care, "It's nothing much, the doctor said that this is my third reincarnation, before, my body wasn't well when I gave birth to my second reincarnation, so it's easy for me to miscarry, it's fine now."
"Pay more attention." "No," I said.
"Yeah, I know it's important." Li Jie said faintly as she placed her hands on her stomach, and then raised her head and smiled, "Come, let's continue watching the flowers."
"Alright."
We sat there for about half an hour, talking about little things.
Li Jie didn't complain to me this time, but I was a little not used to it.
"Li Jie, I want to go to the toilet." I said to Li Jie.
Li Jie nodded.
When I got up to leave, the park was crowded with people. In addition to tourists, there were a lot of hawkers and armband workers.
I walked slowly, not because I wanted to go to the bathroom, but because I felt a little bored.
"Zhou Jin, come here quickly." It was then that I heard a voice calling a name I knew well.
Zhou Jin! I suddenly turned my head, attempting to find him, but aside from the passing crowd of people, there was no one else I was familiar with. Disappointed, I turned my head, intending to return to Li Jie's side.
"Xia Ying." I heard someone calling to me, not Li Jie's voice.
I stood there blankly looking around.
"Xia Ying." The voice was familiar. I'll never forget it.
I looked under a tree not far from my side.
I saw Zhou Jin standing under the tree. He wore a white shirt and blue trousers, and his body was tall and straight. His right arm was wrapped in the armband of a staff member.
I tried to pretend I hadn't seen him walk away, but I couldn't help it. I took two steps toward him and stopped.
I looked at him. He was a little thinner, and his face was haggard.
Instead of going home, he found a job here. I was a little touched by the thought of what he had done.
I wanted to walk over and look at him.
"Xia Ying, what are you looking at?" Li Jie's voice sounded from behind me.
I looked at Zhou Jin, then turned and smiled at Li Jie: "Nothing, I thought I saw someone I know, I was mistaken."
"Is that so?" Li Jie turned her head and looked at her suspiciously, "I thought you got lost because you haven't come back for so long."
"Nope." I pulled Li Jie's arm and said, "Let me carry you back."
"Alright."
As I walked, I turned my head to look at Zhou Jin, and discovered that Zhou Jin was still standing there, but he was not alone. Ye Qing stood beside him and seemed to be saying something, but Ye Qing was still as beautiful as ever.
I turned my head and smiled, hoping that Ye Qing could persuade Zhou Jin to go home and give up.
"Go back, Li Jie." "We've all been out so long."
"Alright."
Li Jie told the driver to take me to the apartment building before he left. I listlessly got on the elevator, and the mirror on the elevator reflected my face, my eyes filled with unwillingness to be left.
Actually, being able to separate from Zhou Jin earlier is also not bad. Who can guarantee that after me and Zhou Jin are together, the two of us will not fall out with each other in the future.
When the elevator arrived, I walked up to the front of the house, only to find a bunch of flowers by the door. It was a bunch of horseshoe flowers, but the leaves were a bit withered now.
I went up to the flower and picked it up. There was no card in the flower, but I knew who had sent it.
I remembered how he had looked when I saw him in the park. He had been much more haggard, much thinner, and I was a little pleased with myself for being such a vain woman.
I took the flower into the room and put it in the vase. Looking at it made me feel better.
"You bought flowers today?" The moment Xie Zongming entered, he saw the flower that was placed in the most conspicuous place in the living room.
"Yes." I responded with a smile, then took a glance at the clock on the wall. It was now 6: 30, and Xie Zongming had rushed back as soon as he finished his work.
He's behaving so well, but I'm not used to it. I even hope he goes out every day and doesn't come home to bother me.
"Didn't you dislike flowers?" Xie Zongming curiously asked me, "Previously, you told me not to send you off, why did you buy it now?"
"I wanted to buy it today when I saw it." I said carelessly, as if I didn't care.
Xie Zongming thoughtfully looked at me and said, "Recently, your emotions seem to be a little off?"
I raised my eyes to look at him and saw that Xie Zongming was looking at me with a serious expression.
