Zhou han stepped forward, walked past su Yicheng and Anran, and went straight to the bed. He looked at the child on the bed and frowned in displeasure.

Then, she asked expressionlessly, ” what did the doctor say? ” Her voice was so calm that there was no emotion in it. There was no nervousness or fear that a parent should have at this moment.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t know the child was allergic to seafood.” Anran felt a little guilty. To be honest, she was to blame for this. The child was sitting there and playing with a transformer, but she had to give him something to eat. Of course, she was kind, but she didn’t expect it to end up like this. Fortunately, the child was fine. Otherwise, she would really feel guilty.

Zhou han didn’t say anything. He looked straight at the child on the bed. He reached out and touched his face a little unnaturally.

The child seemed to know that his father was coming. He opened his eyes in a daze. When he saw that the person in front of him was his father, there seemed to be a flash of light in his eyes. However, after the surprise, he looked at the man and seemed to still be a little afraid. He only heard the man call out timidly, ” dad, dad. &Quot;

!!

Zhou han retracted his hand and looked at him. His face was already expressionless and he said in a slightly stern tone, ” &Quot; why are you so disobedient? Didn’t I tell you not to eat seafood? ”

The child’s eyes dimmed and he lowered his eyebrows. He said to Zhou han in a low voice, ” “S-sorry!”

Zhou han didn’t say anything more. He looked at him and stood up. She turned around and looked at su Yicheng, Anran, and the others. Her face was still cold and expressionless as she said, ” &Quot; thank you for sending the child here. If there’s nothing else, please leave. I’ll take care of her. &Quot;

“Um, please don’t blame the child. It’s my fault for giving him seafood pasta.” Judging from his attitude just now, Anran was afraid that he would blame the child. In fact, what could a young child know? She was just a little greedy and playful, but these were not wrong. It was a child’s nature. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame Daren for not looking carefully.

Zhou han didn’t look at her and just said coldly, ” &Quot; it’s not anyone’s fault. He couldn’t resist the temptation. He asked for it. This time, we’ll teach him a lesson. Let’s see if he still dares to do it in the future. &Quot;

Anran still wanted to say something, but he interrupted her and said, ” &Quot; if there’s nothing else, please leave. The doctor should have said that the child needs to rest. &Quot;

Since he said that, Anran couldn’t say anything more, so she shut her mouth and glanced at su Yicheng. Su Yicheng smiled at her comfortingly and shook his head.

Before leaving, Anran couldn’t help but remind him of what the doctor had just told her about taking care of the child. &Quot; &Quot; because of his serious seafood allergy, his stomach has suffered a great shock. It’s best for him to eat something light for the next few days. Also, he needs to stay in the hospital for a few days for observation. &Quot;

“Thank you, I understand.” Zhou han said coldly. He didn’t look at them anymore and turned to look at the child on the bed.

Anran turned around and glanced at the child on the bed again, then finally turned around and left with su Yicheng.

In the corridor of the hospital, su Yicheng, Anran, and ye Ziwen were walking side by side. The atmosphere was a little strange, and all three of them were silent.

Anran was still thinking about the child. That man didn’t seem like a good father. He seemed to be too strict with the child, and the child was also very afraid of him. She was a little worried that the man would take good care of the child.

Ye Ziwen looked at su Yicheng from time to time. He wanted to say something several times, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.

The three of them arrived at the parking lot. Ye ziren and su Yicheng had both driven over. Ye Ziwen stood beside his car and asked the two of them,”Do you still want to go back to the party with me?” If he rushed back now, he would probably be able to pick up the tail.

Su Yicheng glanced at Anran, shook his head, and said, ” &Quot; no, Anran is a little tired tonight, so we’ll go home directly. When you go back to the banquet, please help me say sorry to uncle Xiao. &Quot;

Ye Ziwen nodded and didn’t say anything else. She opened the car door and got into the car. When the car passed by su Yicheng and the others, it slowly stopped. Looking at su Yicheng, ye Ziwen finally couldn’t help but ask, ” “Do you still mind what happened back then?”

Su Yicheng looked at him for a long time before he said, ” “No, I didn’t,”

Ye Ziwen looked at him and sighed slightly as he shook his head. He didn’t say anything and just drove away.

Anran looked at him. Although she didn’t quite understand what ye Ziwen was talking about back then, she knew that su Yicheng and Zhou Han’s relationship wasn’t simple, or rather, something had happened between them back then.

After a while, su Yicheng regained his senses, turned around, and said with a gentle smile, ” “Let’s go,”

Anran stared at him and suddenly felt that she was actually very far away from him and didn’t understand him. If he didn’t say what he was thinking and feeling, she would never be able to guess it. He was an expert at pretending to be sad, but he could also immediately put on a gentle smile in the next second. It was impossible to tell whether his mood was good or bad at the moment.

“What’s wrong?” Seeing that she didn’t move or answer, su Yicheng asked, ”

Anran came back to her senses and smiled at him. She shook her head and said, ” “Nothing. I’m just thinking that the child should be fine.”

Su Yicheng patted him on the shoulder, smiled, and comforted him, ” &Quot; don’t worry. Didn’t the doctor say that she’ll be fine after she recuperates? children recover quickly, so don’t worry. &Quot;

Anran nodded, smiled at him, opened the door, and sat in the car.

Su Yicheng walked around the front of the car and got into the car from the other side, then started the car and drove away.

In the car, Anran looked out the window at the night view that flew by. It wasn’t too late, but she was really tired tonight. She leaned against the back of the chair, her eyes heavy and drowsy, and she fell asleep in a daze.

Su Yicheng glanced at Anran, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, and adjusted the seat for her so that she could sleep more comfortably. He also turned on the car’s stereo and played soft music, which was very soothing and could calm her mood.

In her sleep, an ran seemed to be a little cold. She subconsciously wrapped her arms around herself, and her whole body shrank slightly.

Upon seeing this, su Yicheng pulled the car to the side, stopped, and took off his suit jacket to cover Anran’s body.

Suddenly, a heavy weight was placed on her body, and Anran opened her eyes in a daze. When she saw su Yicheng in front of her, she smiled. &Quot; I fell asleep? ”

Su Yicheng smiled at her, nodded, and said, ” “Sleep a little longer. We’re not there yet. I’ll call you when we arrive.”

Anran nodded and slowly closed her eyes again. After a while, she fell asleep again.

Su Yicheng gently planted a kiss on her forehead, then turned around and started the car again.

Anran didn’t know when she had arrived home or how she had managed to get up. When she woke up and opened her eyes again, she realized that she had already returned to her room in the apartment. The lights were not on in the room, and it was dark and dim. Only the moonlight that seeped in through the window made the room a little brighter. When she turned her head, she saw that su Yicheng wasn’t in bed. She reached out and fumbled for the alarm clock on the bedside table. It was 1:05 a.m., And she frowned. She couldn’t think of where su Yicheng would have gone at this time.

She turned on the table lamp on the bedside table, lifted the thin quilt, and got out of bed. She was still wearing the little dress she had worn at the cocktail party that night, but it looked a little wrinkled now.

He opened the door and went out. The living room was also dark. There was no light, only the faint moonlight shining in from the balcony. It was dark and gloomy.

An ran subconsciously looked toward the study. She didn’t know if the door was open or closed, because she couldn’t see any light even through the gap between the underground door and the floor.

She was a little confused, but she didn’t know where su Yicheng could have gone so late at night.

Suddenly, she heard some noise coming from the kitchen. She reached out and turned on the light in the living room. Following the light, she saw su Yicheng sitting on a bar chair in the kitchen and smiling at her.

“Why didn’t you turn on the lights?” Anran walked toward him with a frown. Before she even reached him, she could already smell the alcohol coming from his body. She looked to his side and saw that he was still holding a glass of wine in his hand, and there was a half-empty bottle of wine on the bar counter.

Standing in front of him, Anran saw that his expression was a little serious, and his brows were tightly furrowed. She looked at the glass in his hand, then at the wine that was less than one-third empty, and said, ” &Quot; why did you drink so much? don’t you know that your stomach isn’t good? ”

Su Yicheng smiled at her, reached out to take her hand, and asked, ” “Why are you up?”

Anran was a little angry. She pulled her hand back from his and took the wine glass from his hand. She looked at him and said seriously, ” “Su Yicheng, don’t change the subject! It’s the middle of the night and you’re drinking so much. Don’t you want your stomach?”

He still had a smile on his face and did not seem displeased by her stern tone. He reached out and pulled her hand over again and played with it in his palm. Her hand was so small and soft. It felt especially good to touch it. He held her hands and shook his head at her. He said in a clear-headed manner,”I didn’t drink much.” He had a good tolerance for alcohol. Even if he drank so much, he could still clearly recognize everything and remain rational. This was the alcohol tolerance he had practiced at the dining table on various occasions after he entered politics. As for the gastric bleeding caused by drinking, it was entirely because of the mixture of several kinds of alcohol. Several different kinds of alcohol stimulated his stomach, which caused his stomach disease to relapse.

“I haven’t drunk much yet!” Anran pointed at the few bottles of wine left on the bar counter in dissatisfaction. &Quot; do you think it’s too much only after you finish one bottle? ”

Su Yicheng shook his head with a smile, pulled her over to sit on his lap, and buried his head in her shoulder, reeking of alcohol, as he said in a muffled voice, ” “Don’t worry, I’m a good drinker. I’m not drunk.”

“I’m not drunk! What if he’s really drunk? will he be hospitalized again like last time?” Anran was really angry. She was angry that he didn’t know how to cherish his body at all. Last time, he had drunk too much and caused her stomach to relapse, but he still hadn’t learned his lesson.

Su Yicheng chuckled and hugged her tightly. He was clearly taught a lesson by her, but he was unconsciously happy and secretly delighted. At least he knew that she was really worried about him at the moment, and it felt really good to be worried and nervous.

“Su Yicheng!” Anran reached out to push him away, then held his face in her hands, looked straight into his eyes, and said in a serious and serious tone, ” “I’m not joking with you, and I don’t have any intention of praising you! Don’t be so cheeky!”

Su Yicheng held back his laughter and mimicked her, nodding seriously and seriously. &Quot; I know. I’ll listen to my wife. If she says I won’t drink it, then I really won’t drink it in the future. &Quot;

&Quot; you don’t listen to me. I told you not to drink tonight, but you just got home and hid here with a bottle of wine and drank so much. &Quot; Anran poked his shoulder angrily and said, ” “Tell me, is there anyone who listens to me like you?” This was clearly an act of compliance but disobeying in secret.

The smile on su Yicheng’s face brightened up even more. After drinking all night, not only did it not ease his depression, but it had also been swept away by her. Su Yicheng looked at her seriously and then nodded heavily. &Quot; I won’t do it again. &Quot;

Anran looked at him for a while, then finally sighed and said, ” &Quot; I’m just afraid that your stomach will relapse. You scared me to death. The doctor also said that stomach problems are the most difficult to treat. You don’t take care of yourself like this. &Quot;

Upon hearing this, su Yicheng immediately pulled Anran into his arms and whispered in his ear, ” “I’m sorry to have made you worry. I won’t do it again.”

Anran let him hold her and leaned into his arms. After a while, she asked in a muffled voice, ” “Why did you drink at night?”

Su Yicheng held her in his arms and gently stroked her hair back and forth. He then said indifferently, ” “I’ve recalled some things from the past.” There were some things that he thought he would never think about again, but there was no such thing as forever. The earth was round. Even if the two of them did not meet now, they would meet in the future.

“Is it because of that man?” Anran asked tentatively. The man she had met in the hospital, from the moment he stepped into the ward, she could clearly feel the undercurrent between them. She didn’t know what had happened between them in the past, but looking at the expressions of the three of them, it didn’t seem to be something that made them happy. Also, when they left the hospital, ye Ziwen had asked him,”do you still mind what happened back then?” This all proved that something unpleasant must have happened between him and that man back then.

After a long silence, su Yicheng slowly nodded and replied, ” “Yes.”

“You want to tell me?” Anran asked. Although she couldn’t really help him, there were some things that might be better to say. She might not be able to give him good advice or solutions, but she might be a good listener.

Su Yicheng didn’t say anything, but he tightened his embrace around her.

An ran asked uncertainly as she waited. Although they were husband and wife, she wasn’t sure if they could honestly share each other’s happy and unhappy past.

Suddenly, su Yicheng let go of her, stared at the corner of her eyes, and said with a slight smile, ” “It’s too late, let’s rest.”

She suddenly felt as if something was pressing down on her heart. Anran couldn’t describe what this feeling was, but she knew that she didn’t like this feeling. In fact, she even hated it.

Anran smiled. She didn’t want him to see through her thoughts, so she withdrew from his arms and nodded with a smile. She looked at her clothes and said, ” “Yes, it’s getting late. I’ll go take a shower first.” With that said, he turned around and walked towards the master bedroom.

She had misunderstood su Yicheng. In fact, it wasn’t that he couldn’t tell her, but there were some things that he didn’t know where to start.

Seeing that she was about to leave, su Yicheng suddenly got down from the high stool, then bent over from behind and suddenly picked Anran up in the air.

“Ah!”

Anran instinctively screamed when she was suddenly picked up by someone. Her hands subconsciously wrapped around his shoulders, and she looked at him in a daze.”You, what are you doing?” It was a good thing that she didn’t have a heart attack when he suddenly hugged her like this. Otherwise, she might have a heart attack or something.

Su Yicheng looked at her with a big smile on his face and said, ” “I haven’t taken a shower either.”

Hearing this, Anran was stunned. She looked into his eyes and seemed to be able to read his thoughts and emotions. She subconsciously leaned back. She had a very bad feeling, and it was a very strong feeling, so strong that it made her a little scared. It was as if the scene from a few days ago had returned to her mind.

With a dry smile, Anran said, ” “Why don’t you go first? I suddenly remembered that I’m not sleepy yet, and I still have a drawing I haven’t drawn. Why don’t you go and wash first, and then I’ll draw the drawing first? what do you think?”

Su Yicheng smiled, and the corners of his mouth widened. He then shook his head and said, ” “The country encourages the conservation of water.”

“And then?” Even if they wanted to save water, they still had to take a shower!

Su Yicheng was still smiling, and his smile was even more strange as he said, ” &Quot; I’m a public servant of the people. Of course, I’m responsible for responding to the country’s call. &Quot;

“So you’ve decided not to shower?” Anran asked in a daze. She suddenly felt that if someone didn’t take a shower because of this reason, it would be very unreasonable to advocate this!

Su Yicheng suddenly felt defeated. When did he ever give him such a hint? This was not what he wanted to hint at!

Seeing that he didn’t say anything, Anran thought that she had guessed correctly. Seeing that he was still in a negotiating tone, she asked, ” “Then I’m not a public servant. Can I not respond to the call of the country when it comes to bathing? Of course, I’ll still use water sparingly. For example, I’ll water the flowers with vegetable-washing water and flush the toilet with laundry water.”

Su Yicheng saw that she was a little stunned, and he couldn’t help but wonder if she was deliberately playing dumb with him. He hugged her without saying a word and carried her directly to their bedroom. Then, he carried her directly into the bathroom, pushed open the glass door of the shower room, and carried her in.

Anran quickly made her attitude clear. &Quot; I-I can wash myself. You, you can go out first. &Quot;

The corners of su Yicheng’s lips curled up into a devilish smile. He turned on the shower head, then poured warm water over their heads. Their clothes were instantly drenched, and even their hair was not spared.

Just as Anran was about to scream in panic, she heard su Yicheng’s devilishly charming voice whisper in her ear, ” “I’m talking about responding to the country’s call to use water to terminate contracts. I’m a public servant, and you’re the public servant’s wife. Do you want to follow my example and respond to the call of the country, huh?”

An ran wanted to cry but had no tears. What was this? it was all nonsense, absolutely nonsense! If two people bathing together could really save water, then so be it. But last time, they stayed in the bathroom for more than an hour. This was not saving water, it was clearly a waste of the country’s water resources! Some people said that those officials only engaged in formalism. There were many who made proposals and put forward opinions, but there were very few who could really implement them.

Just as she was about to protest, his tongue nimbly slid in and entangled her the moment she opened her mouth. Then, she didn’t have a chance to speak again. Her mouth was tightly blocked by her, and she couldn’t do anything other than kiss.

Then, someone pulled someone’s clothes in the passion. Mixed with the faint smell of alcohol and the sound of running water, the atmosphere in the shower room suddenly became ambiguous and the temperature rose. Then, mixed with the sound of water, the man’s low growls, and the woman’s lust, the bathroom was filled with the charming spring light.

When the two of them came out of the bathroom again, Anran was so tired that she didn’t even want to move her toes. She couldn’t move, so she let him hold her as they lay on the bed. She felt him lying down next to her and hugging her from behind. Their bodies were pressed tightly against each other, without a gap.

An ran was so tired that she didn’t want to move. Her eyelids were so heavy that she wanted to fight. In a daze, she followed the weight of her eyelids and closed her eyes.

Just as Anran was about to fall asleep, su Yicheng, who was behind her, suddenly said, ” “His name is Zhou han. He was the one who betrayed me with Ling LAN back then. He was also our best friend. It’s not that I didn’t want to tell you, I just didn’t know how to start.”

An ran suddenly opened her eyes, and her sleepiness seemed to have disappeared in an instant. He said that the man was the one who betrayed him with Ling LAN, but he seemed to be more heroic and miserable.

She wanted to turn around in a daze, but her body was held tightly by him, making her unable to move or turn around.

&Quot; su Yicheng … &Quot; Anran called him softly, a little worried.

Behind her, he chuckled and leaned on her back, shaking his head. &Quot; “Don’t worry about me. I’m fine. I’ve let go of all this a few years ago. The reason why I’m drinking is because I have an indescribable feeling of depression after meeting him again after so many years. It’s not because I can’t let him go.” It turned out that some things weren’t that difficult to say. After saying it, he felt relaxed.

Anran didn’t say anything. In fact, she didn’t know what to say. She was only good at listening and comforting, but she obviously didn’t have the ability to do so. She wanted to say something but stopped herself several times. In the end, she just reached out and slowly covered the hand around her waist, holding it.

Behind her, su Yicheng chuckled, then pulled her closer into his arms and said softly, ” “Alright, go to sleep.”

Anran nodded, and her fingers were still intertwined with his. His words just now were like hypnotism, and she slowly closed her eyes. Then, her consciousness gradually faded away, and she really fell asleep.

Su Yicheng didn’t actually feel sleepy, and his consciousness seemed to be getting more and more awake. In the dark, he opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling above him. The child seemed to be only five or six years old. He called Zhou han ‘father’, but what about his mother? Was it Ling LAN?

Anran’s breathing calmed down in his arms. She was really tired that night. She had accompanied her at social events the entire night and had a stiff smile on her face. That child’s sudden seafood allergy had frightened her a lot, and she had been pestered by him for a long time just now. She should be tired.

Reaching out, he turned her around and pulled his hands away from her waist. Then, he lifted her head slightly and let her rest on his arm. Sighing lightly, he shook his head with a self-deprecating smile, closed his eyes, and fell asleep with her.

When she woke up again, the sky was already bright. Surprisingly, su Yicheng didn’t get up for his morning exercise today. He was still lying next to her with his eyes closed.

Anran turned her body slightly to look at the alarm clock on the bedside table. It was 7:35. She turned around and looked at su Yicheng, who was sleeping. She didn’t know what he was dreaming about or what he was thinking about, but she didn’t like the deep frown between his brows. She reached out to smooth it out for him, looked at him for a while, and then carefully turned over and lifted the quilt to get out of bed.

However, as soon as she lifted the blanket, Anran suddenly froze. She looked down at herself under the blanket, and her face reddened again. She was not wearing anything!

Only then did she remember that they had been together last night. The two of them had been discussing how to save water, but in the end, they had gone straight into the bathroom. During this time, neither of them had thought of taking out a change of pajamas from the closet!

Anran turned her head to look at su Yicheng, who was still asleep. After making sure that his eyes were still closed and that he was still lying on his side, she carefully got out of bed and quickly headed to the closet. As if she was worried that the person in bed would wake up in the middle of it, Anran took out a change of clothes from the closet while turning her head to look at the person in bed from time to time. She finally took the suit she was going to wear today and rushed into the bathroom.

However, she didn’t notice that his slightly serious face had a faint smile on it from time to time when she got out of bed to get a change of clothes.

After Anran changed her clothes and rushed out of the bathroom, su Yicheng was still not awake and was still in the same position. An ran took out the clothes he was going to change into today from the closet. He then placed it on the side of the bed so that he could see it when he woke up.

After finishing all this, he slowly retreated from the master bedroom safely.

From the moment she left the room and closed the door, su Yicheng’s eyes suddenly opened. He looked at the clothes on the bed with a faint smile on his face.

After su Yicheng had changed his clothes and washed up, he came out of the room. Anran was making breakfast, and when she saw him come out, she turned around and said to him with a smile, ” “I’ll be done in a moment.”

Su Yicheng nodded, and as usual, he sat down on the dangling leg in front of the bar counter and waited for the breakfast she would prepare for him that day.
