After Bai Changyi said "ting, the camera is further down, I can't see it", the small speaker made a sound: "Bluetooth connection has been disconnected."

The line is disconnected

Zhu Ao's head didn't move, only his eyes slowly lifted up and looked at the ceiling. Just above the second floor was Ting Shuang's bedroom.

After looking at the ceiling for a few seconds, Zhu Ao turned his gaze back to the Bluetooth speaker that had completely quieted down.

The whole process was indescribable.

The nurse looked at the speaker, then at Zhu Ao, not daring to break the dead silence in the restaurant.

Zhu Ao picked up the teacup and slowly brought it to his mouth. After stagnating for a long time, he slowly put the teacup back on the table. I just took it and put it, put it away, and went back and forth three times.

Finally, he said, "call Ting Shuang down for breakfast."

The nurse nodded, and was about to go upstairs when Zhu Ao said, "Fifteen minutes later, no, go back in half an hour."

Young people, half an hour should be enough.

After the instructions, Zhu Ao finally slowed down and was able to put the cup of tea into his mouth safely.

Unexpectedly, just two minutes later, Ting Shuang entered the restaurant refreshed.

"Morning tea today? It's good to eat at home." He sat down beside Zhu Ao carelessly, picked up a chicken paw in soy sauce with chopsticks and gnawed it.

Zhu Ao glanced at the clock on the low cabinet, and then looked at Ting Shuang who was eating happily. His eyes became complicated. After seeing Ting Shuang eating for a long time, he asked: "Have you had a medical examination? Twenty-four years old."

"I have a physical examination." Ting Shuang said, "I have physical examinations every year."

Zhu Ao said, "Is there any problem?"

Ting Shuang said: "No, I am very good in every indicator."

Tingshuang is very healthy, the problem is that...

Zhu Ao looked at the small speaker on the table, and his eyes became more complicated.

"Why do you ask this?" Ting Shuang put the rice roll with vegetables in Zhu Ao's hand, "Does our family have any history of genetic diseases?"

"No, no." Zhu Ao educated, "But you should start paying attention to your body from your early twenties, and don't wait until you are in your thirties to be powerless."

Speaking of this level, it is enough. If the son does not have a physical examination, he can ask questions. It is best not to know too much about the physical condition of the daughter-in-law.

"Yes, yes, it's not too early to maintain health." Ting Shuang agreed with a smile.

In the past, he didn't want to listen to Zhu Ao's lectures, and he was annoyed. He always felt like his subordinates were being disciplined by the leaders. Now he is quite happy. After breakfast, he accompanies Zhu Ao for most of the morning. After they had all finished eating, Zhu Wenjia went downstairs, looking out of spirit.

Zhu Ao said: "stay up late?"

Zhu Wenjia sat down and froze for a while before answering, "Yeah."

It was a good day, the autumn was high and the air was refreshing. After dinner, the nurse pushed Zhu Ao out for a walk.

Zhu Wenjia looked at the silhouettes of the nurse and Zhu Ao in the yard from a distance, and said to Ting Shuang, "I received a call from my mother's lawyer, and the court will be held next Wednesday."

"Well." Ting Shuang said, "are you going to see?"

"Well." Zhu Wenjia said, "How about you, brother?"

"I can't go." Ting Shuang added water to the teapot and asked the nanny to take out the hot tea from the steamer and let Zhu Wenjia eat, "I have to go to work."

There is no way to ask for a day's leave in advance for work, but Zhu Wenjia didn't ask any further questions, just answered "um" and buried his head to eat. He has been quite bored during this time, and he can still joke with Ting Shuang when not mentioning Weng Yunyi, and he will talk less about Weng Yunyi.

He still didn't know how to deal with it.

He didn't know how to face Zhu Ao at first. He didn't dare to go into the ward to see Zhu Ao after the private chapter happened before, and when Zhu Ao returned home, he often hid, until Ting Shuang told him, "What happened after Dad's accident, whether it's about the company, about the Damn it, it's still about me, you don't know anything. You've been preparing your school application materials during this time, and nothing else has been done."

He was stunned at the time: "You didn't tell Dad..."

No. Ting Shuang thought to herself, it is neither necessary nor worth it.

"So you'd better really apply to a serious university for me." Ting Shuang said to Zhu Wenjia.

The night before the court session, Zhu Wenjia couldn't sleep and knocked on Tingshuang's door.

Ting Shuang is using the computer to open the video, the computer is placed on the table, the camera is facing the window, and others are sitting by the window in pajamas reading a book. The night wind blew the cypress trees outside the window rustling softly. On the computer screen is the silhouette of Bai Changyi cooking dinner. The warm yellow light from the oven is reflected on his hands from time to time, and there is a slight movement between the computer and the contact between the knife and the plate.

The two of them did their own thing, and when Ting Shuang shouted occasionally, Bai Changyi looked up at him. After looking at each other for a while, Ting Shuang smiled and lowered her head to continue reading, and Bai Changyi went to take care of the cooking at hand.

When he heard the knock on the door, Ting Shuang took a look at the time on the computer. He didn't pay attention when he was reading, but he didn't expect it to be faster.

"Why didn't you tell me to go to bed?" Ting Shuang asked Bai Changyi as he put down the book in his hand and prepared to open the door.

"I don't want to interrupt you." Bai Changyi said.

Ting Shuang smiled at Bai Changyi and said, "Then I'll hang up first."

Bai Changyi said, "Okay."

"So rest assured?" Ting Shuang teased Bai Changyi, "Aren't you worried about me stealing people in the middle of the night?"

"Who is stealing?" Bai Changyi was funny, this little bastard was obviously at home, "Your dad?"

Ting Shuang waved his hand and said, "my dad struggles to stand up and walk, let alone other things."

Bai Changyi: "..."

Just because it's hard to walk

Is it okay to walk without effort

what logic.

After Ting Shuang finished speaking, he seemed to think something was wrong, but he didn't think much about it. Chong Bai Changyi grinned and hung up the video.

He doesn't usually do this. Only when he is with Bai Changyi can he think about nothing like this.

Can Professor Bai Da compare with him

got used to it.

After Ting Shuang finished hanging up, she went to open the bedroom door, only to see Zhu Wenjia standing at the door slumped.

"What are you doing? Run over in the middle of the night without sleeping." Ting Shuang asked Zhu Wenjia to come in.

He remembers the court hearing tomorrow morning.

When Zhu Wenjia came in, he neither sat down nor spoke, but just stood there in a daze, and said, "Brother, you haven't slept yet."

"I'm about to go to bed." Ting Shuang said, "Aren't you going to sleep yet? You can't get up late tomorrow."

Zhu Wenjia stood for a long time before slowly curling up like a shrimp thrown into a hot pot: "...I can't sleep."

Ting Shuang sat quietly beside him without speaking.

"I've always thought... if..." Zhu Wenjia buried his face in his knees, his voice getting lower and lower, "if I..."

"Even if you don't take the private seal, she will think of other ways." Ting Shuang put her palm on Zhu Wenjia's head and touched it twice, "Okay, don't burden yourself with so much."

"...No." Zhu Wenjia squeezed two words out of his throat, and after a long time he squeezed out a few more words, "...not that."

Ting Shuang didn't know what Zhu Wenjia wanted to say, but he didn't ask. He just said "um" to indicate that he was listening.

He is much more patient than before.

I don't know how long it took before I heard Zhu Wenjia say incoherently: "I've been thinking... If I used to... I didn't have you and my mother before..."

As if frozen by the wind blowing into the bedroom, Zhu Wenjia shivered slightly, Ting Shuang got up, closed the window, and sat back next to Zhu Wenjia.

"Is there any wine at home?" Zhu Wenjia said suddenly.

"No." Ting Shuang said, "There are no tobacco and alcohol."

"Wait for me." Zhu Wenjia stood up slowly, dragged her numb legs downstairs, and came back with half a bottle of cooking wine in her hand.

"Brother, sit there." Zhu Wenjia pointed to the high chair by the window.

Ting Shuang originally wanted to take away the half bottle of cooking wine in Zhu Wenjia's hand, but as soon as Zhu Wenjia opened his mouth, the taste of wine was in his mouth. Ting Shuang thought that he had probably drank a lot on the road, and said in his heart, "Forget it, just drink it, and just go to sleep after drinking it."

Waiting for Ting Shuang to sit by the window, Zhu Wenjia sat on a high chair next to Ting Shuang. Ting Shuang suddenly remembered that not long after he was cheated on, Zhu Wenjia came to Germany to find him. At that time, he wanted to pretend to be decent and dignified, but after two sips of wine, he lost all decency and dignity.

Zhu Wenjia poured the remaining half a bottle of cooking wine, and waited for the effect of the alcohol to gradually come up, making his eyes red and his internal organs hot.

Good to speak now.

"I'm thinking, if I hadn't told my mother about your... I didn't tell you about my mother... will you... "

The wine was drunk on an empty stomach, and he quickly got drunk.

"I... bro, do you think I'm so... disgusting..." He exhaled thick, hot breath, "I... I've been like this since I was a child... I want my mother to like me only, and I want my dad to like me only, I want... I want you... I only like me... Later I wanted to change... But I'm used to it... Why did it become like this... "

He fell forward, fell on Ting Shuang's chest, and kept saying in his mouth, "brother... I'm so afraid... I envy you so much... When I was a child, they all scolded me... They said I was the third child. Bastards... It's all because I made you lose your mother... They all like you... Do you know that once I heard my dad say he married my mom, just to prove that he was right back then, and he'd been the same as someone else ... for so many years... bro... I'm so afraid... I'm afraid that my father only likes you... I'm afraid that my mother will follow my father to you... I'm afraid that you don't like me because of my mother... Can you just hate her? don't hate me..."

He spoke slower and weaker, until only the sound of even breathing remained.

Ting Shuang supported him and put him on his bed nearby.

Brother, you said... Am I so disgusting...

Is it disgusting...

Ting Shuang stood by the bed for a while before leaving the bedroom and closing the door.

He wanted to go to the guest room, but somehow made his way to the courtyard. Look up at the sky, there are no stars and no moon tonight. So he went to the cypress tree and lay down, and the tree covered the sky like a cloud.

Close your eyes again, the sky is full of stars.

No, not disgusting, Ting Shuang replied in his heart, you are not disgusting, you are just an ordinary person, like an ordinary night without stars.
