Yang Junyi’s parents were also ordinary salaried workers, matching well with Tian Xin’s family, which made both sides very satisfied with each other.
"Feeling bored?" Yang Junyi asked softly.
Tian Xin nodded; she wanted to leave, but she was worried about her mother’s nagging for not obeying!
Yang Junyi had noticed her feelings and said softly, "Uncle, Auntie, Dad, Mom, Tian Xin and I ate too much for dinner. Let’s go for a walk in the nearby park!"
Yang Junyi’s mother was an understanding person, she said, "Go ahead! It’s too boring for you to just accompany us old folks."
So, Yang Junyi took Tian Xin by the hand and left the house.
"It’s good to have you, otherwise my mom would have nagged me forever," Tian Xin said. "And your mom is so good-tempered, not like mine who’s so chatty..."
Yang Junyi replied softly, "Your mom nags because she cares about you!"
Tian Xin added, "It’s quite nice to take a walk outside! The nights in autumn are getting a little chilly..."
Yang Junyi took off his jacket and draped it over her, "Here..."
"I’m not cold, I was just saying!" Tian Xin looked at him. "You are so good to me, I often feel I’m too careless. If there’s anything I’m not doing right, you have to remind me!"
"You are fine!" Yang Junyi insisted on putting the jacket on her. "You’re straightforward and direct, without any of those little schemes. I really like that about you!"
Tian Xin smiled at him!
After the couple visited the park and returned home, Yang Junyi drove his parents away, while Tian Xin stayed at the house.
At that moment, her mother was looking at an old photo from over thirty years ago. It was a very old color photo, showing a young boy.
"Mom..." Tian Xin approached, "Are you thinking about brother again?"
"It’s been over thirty years. Where exactly did the kidnapper take your brother?" Her mother began to cry, "It’s my fault for not looking after him. That’s why he was kidnapped, I let him down... If I had held his hand tight while shopping, he wouldn’t have gone missing..."
"Mom..." Tian Xin gently patted her mother’s back, "If he was really kidnapped, then brother must be alive, don’t worry! He will show up eventually... "
With tears in her eyes, Tian Xin’s mother said: "You’re about to get married. How wonderful it would be if your brother could come back... If one day you see a black mole in the palm of his hand, you must pay attention and see if that person is your brother..."
"Mom, I will..." Tian Xin hurriedly responded, "It’s very late now, please go rest. I will find brother for sure..."
After soothing her mother, Tian Xin went to take a shower and then to bed.
The two children had been frolicking all evening and finally fell asleep.
By the lakeside, it was very quiet. The stars in the sky were reflected in the lake water, twinkling like the stars had fallen into the lake.
Bei Ran received a last-minute case from Pan Yutao, about a major client and somewhat urgent.
Thus, she had to work overtime at night.
While Bei Ran was busy in the study, Gu Qingchen went to the kitchen to thinly slice the salmon he brought back from the hotel and then placed it in the refrigerator.
When Wu Sister saw him in the kitchen, she hurried forward and said, "Mr. Gu, let me do it!"
"No need, Wu Sister. Go rest!" Gu Qingchen, holding a kitchen knife, said, "I can handle it!"
Wu Sister exclaimed, "Mr. Gu truly lives up to being a Great Doctor, these slices of salmon are incredibly beautiful!"
"I’m used to holding a scalpel, using a kitchen knife actually feels strange," said Gu Qingchen.
"But the thought counts for a lot, Mr. Gu," Wu Sister continued praising the fact that a man is willing to cook, considering it the truest expression of love.
In the evening, after Bei Ran finished her work, she saw that it was already past midnight. She closed her laptop, satisfied. Being busy at work can also prove one’s value.
Returning to the room, Gu Qingchen had already taken a shower and was reading a medical book.
"Haven’t you gone to bed?" Bei Ran approached him. "You’ve been busy these past few days, you should have slept early today!"
"Go take a shower, I’ll wait for you!" Gu Qingchen’s eyes were sparkling.
The conversation between husband and wife, especially late at night, has a special atmosphere.
Bei Ran knew what he meant and hurriedly went to shower, then came out.
Gu Qingchen looked at her: "Do you remember what you said during dinner tonight?"
"What did I say?" Bei Ran really didn’t remember.
