Sensing Ando's probing gaze, Su Chen froze for a moment, then raised his eyes to look back at him.
Ando didn't feel guilty because of this, he just smiled lightly and took a sip of beer.
"Dad~"
At this moment, Nian Nian came running over wearing small water shoes, rubbing her eyes as if she was sleepy.
Su Chen hugged Nian Nian to his lap, lowered his head and asked him, "Sleepy?"
Nian Nian nodded wearily, her round black eyes looked back and forth at the adults.
Seeing Nian Nian's cute appearance, Ando suddenly became curious and asked, "Where's his mother?"
Hearing Ando's words, Su Chen's whole body stiffened immediately, looked at him with a slightly hurt expression, and ground his teeth, "He doesn't have a mother."
What a sarcasm.
The person he was asking was himself.
Zhang Ziming was so angry that he wanted to hit someone, but he held back when he thought of the reason for inviting him here, and drank a glass of wine with a sneer, "Nian Nian's mother is a man, but in the end, he was betrayed and sent them all away." Leave it here and ignore it."
Ando frowned indistinctly, he could feel the pertinence in Zhang Ziming's words, and it was aimed at himself.
Could it be that the heartbreaker in his mouth is himself? But he really didn't remember knowing Su Chen at all.
Ando looked at Nian Nian's small face again, and looked at it carefully, as if looking for similarities with himself. Although the child is still young, his appearance has basically grown. If you look carefully, you can still see the appearance of another person.
The little guy really looked a lot like himself, and now he was really surprised, and looked up at Su Chen.
Su Chen inexplicably felt a little guilty, and thought about it, "I'll take the child to bed first, you continue."
Zhang Ziming nodded, looked at Ando out of the corner of his eye, and saw his expression with a slightly raised corner of his mouth.
Carrying Nian Nian back to the cabin, she put her small body on the sofa, pulled off the quilt, kissed his forehead, and said softly, "Go to sleep."
Niannian blinked, and closed her eyes obediently after making sure that her father would not leave. After the child fell asleep, Su Chen went out to bake and help.
It was past twelve o'clock in the night, and there were only three or four tables of guests left in the grill bar, and no one would come at this time.
Su Chen glanced at Ando, the three of them were almost drunk, Cai Zhu was already lying on the table, Zhang Ziming didn't know what he was talking to Ando, he could vaguely see that he was confused.
Are you talking about him? Su Chen thought.
Thinking of the way Ando looked at Niannian just now, Su Chen's heart tightened. He must have seen something, right? After all, Nian Nian resembles him eighty percent, as long as a caring person can see it at a glance.
It's just that he might not have thought of going to that floor, so he didn't react when he saw Nian Nian in the afternoon.
Judging from Ando's expression just now, he should have seen something, and a glimmer of hope rose in Su Chen's heart again.
Su Chen didn't have time to start the show when he saw the guests recruiting, he shook his head, and decided to think about it when he went back tonight.
After he finished placing the order for the guests, Ando had already supported Cai Zhu and walked towards the bamboo forest. Zhang Ziming, who was slightly drunk, came over and told him that he would stay in the guest room tonight, then turned around and left behind Ando with bumpy steps.
Seeing Zhang Ziming walking the S road, Su Chen was a little worried that he would fall down.
It was past one o'clock in the morning after the guests left. Su Chen went back to the main house with Niannian in his arms without doing the billing, but unexpectedly saw Ando, who hadn't rested yet, sitting on the big rock beside the corridor, with a deep expression on his face. what to think.
As soon as Su Chen approached, he noticed him, looking at him with a trace of unknown emotion.
Su Chen was stunned for a few seconds, "Why don't you sleep?"
"I'm waiting for you." Ando looked at him and said.
Su Chen looked at him for a while, and thought that Zhang Ziming might have said something to him just now, so he nodded, "I'll take the child back to the house first."
Ando didn't speak, watching his back disappear into the living room door.
Zhang Ziming was a little drunk tonight, and he did reveal something that he didn't know. He couldn't remember anything about Su Chen anyway, and he couldn't imagine what the missing memories were.
Su Chen carried the little guy back to the bed. Thinking of Ando's eyes, he couldn't help being a little nervous. He squeezed his palm, took a deep breath before going out.
Seeing him coming out, Ando moved his seat and let him sit next to him.
Su Chen sat over and didn't know what to say for a while, the two of them faced the dark bamboo forest in silence.
"Is Miss Sakuragi asleep?" Seeing that he had no intention of speaking, Su Chen took the initiative to speak.
"I don't know." Ando didn't live with her.
"Oh." Su Chen responded and fell silent for a while, tilting his head to look at Ando's side face. Now the surroundings are quiet, and he has no worries. He finally asked the question he wanted to know the most, "What happened after you returned to Japan? Why did you lose your memory?"
Ando was startled, then turned to look at him seriously, "I don't have amnesia."
"Then why don't you remember me." Obviously they are the closest people, but why does he remember everyone but not himself
Ando was at a loss for words because he couldn't find the reason, "Sorry, I don't have any memories of you except the party that night."
Although he already knew that Ando didn't remember himself, he still couldn't help being hurt when he heard such an answer with his own ears, "How could this be?"
Seeing Su Chen's injured appearance, Ando dispelled all the remaining doubts in his heart.
He also showed such an expression at the party that day. If an unrelated person, how could he show such an almost desperate expression
"I might need a moment, can you help me?" For better or worse, he wanted to find that missing piece of memory.
After hearing his words, Su Chen's eyes flashed a light, "What should I do?"
"Take me where we know each other."
Su Chen froze for a moment, thinking of the place where they met for the first time, his face suddenly turned suspiciously red, which was not obvious under the dim light.
"No?" Seeing him suddenly quiet down, Ando thought he was unwilling, so he asked again.
Su Chen quickly shook his head, "Of course." He hoped that he would remember more than Ando himself.
Thinking of Zhang Ziming's words and Nian Nian's appearance, Ando's mind was a little out of order, "Nian Nian...is my child?"
Su Chen gritted his teeth, not knowing how to answer, thinking of Sakuragi Xi made him even more embarrassed to speak.
Seeming to see his concerns, Ando said: "You don't have to feel embarrassed, I won't rob him from you."
Su Chen didn't admit it directly. He wanted to wait for Ando to remember, so he twitched his lips and said, "It's getting late, aren't you going to climb the mountain tomorrow? Rest early."
Anden grunted, looked at his side face calmly, searched again unconsciously in his mind, but gave up after finding nothing.
Thinking of the memory he was about to find, he couldn't help feeling a little bit looking forward to it.
