70s: Raising a Baby

"Boss Ye, do you want something to eat? I'll send someone to buy it." The assistant's voice came from the door.

Ye Jinzhi just recovered from his work, and leaned back on the seat, his eyes were a little sore from the incandescent light because he hadn't rested for a long time.

He closed his eyes and rubbed his browbones, his head was a little sore from reading too many documents, so he closed his eyes and rested for a while.

Noticing that the assistant was still standing at the door, "What time is it?"

"It's almost eight o'clock."

It was rare for them to work overtime so late. Looking around, the lights of their building were still on within a few kilometers.

"Let everyone go back and rest first." Ye Jinzhi leaned back on the seat without moving, his voice a little hoarse.

"Boss Ye, why don't I call someone to pick you up." The assistant was a little worried.

Ye Jinzhi didn't speak, waved his hand, and let the assistant go down.

I don't know how long it took to rest, but the assistant saw that everyone was almost gone, but there was no movement in Ye Jinzhi's office for a long time, so he came in to check again.

"Mr. Ye, Mr. Ye?"

Ye Jinzhi was woken up by the assistant. After looking at the time, half an hour had passed, but she felt that she had only slept for a few minutes.

"How about I take you back."

The assistant saw that Ye Jinzhi's eyes were bloodshot, and worried that she might have an accident while driving alone.

Ye Jinzhi didn't want to trouble him, the place where he lived was not in the same way as her.

"No need, it's so late, you take the company's car back, and see if there are any rounder people by the way, and drive them there."

For convenience, Ye Jinzhi specially allocated two cars for the company, just because he was afraid that it would be inconvenient when something happened.

"I've sent someone to deliver it, don't worry." The assistant had already thought of this.

Ye Jinzhi nodded, "Go back first, I'll sit down for a while."

The assistant didn't dare to leave alone. Although Ye Jinzhi was his boss, she was a woman after all, and judging by her condition, he didn't dare to leave by himself. It would be too late if something happened.

Seeing how persistent he was, Ye Jinzhi didn't argue with him.

However, Ye Jinzhi didn't expect that there was a huge surprise waiting for her below.

When they went downstairs, it was pitch black outside, because Ye Jinzhi insisted not to see him off, the two separated at the door.

Ye Jinzhi parked the car in front, fortunately there were street lights, even though she was the only one on the road, she was not afraid.

About a hundred meters away from the car, Ye Jinzhi noticed a figure beside the car, leaning against the door of the cab.

Ye Jinzhi was stunned for a while, then slowly stopped walking, and raised his heart.

The bag in her hand was tightly held by her. With one hand, she carefully unzipped the zipper and fumbled inside the bag.

There was a personal weapon that Yuan Shaochen specially made for her, but she never used it once, but she didn't throw it away, and always carried it with her.

The people over there seemed to have noticed the movement here, Ye Jinzhi couldn't see his face clearly, but felt that this person was tall and big from a distance.

When she found him looking over, Ye Jinzhi was scared, but she didn't move because she found that her feet were weak.

She didn't dare to leave, fearing that she would be exposed if she left, so she could only stand still.

The figure in the distance seemed to recognize her, and walked towards her slowly.

Ye Jinzhi's hand in the bag also slowly moved out, holding the weapon tightly in his hand, staring at the man motionlessly.

However, as the figure walked in, Ye Jinzhi found that his figure looked familiar.

Fortunately, that person didn't keep Ye Jinzhi waiting, and he walked out of the shadows in a short while, fully exposed to the streetlights, and his face hidden in the darkness gradually became clear.

Ye Jinzhi looked at the man's face, his pupils dilated in disbelief, his mouth trembling slightly, trying to say something.

Looking at the familiar face, Ye Jinzhi's eyes gradually turned red, and tears flowed out as if he didn't want money. When someone approached, his face was full of tears.

"Why are you crying?" I could only hear the helpless and distressed tone of the person on the opposite side, as he caressed Ye Jinzhi's face with his rough hands.

Ye Jinzhi wanted to laugh but the tears couldn't be controlled, and kept falling. His teary eyes saw what he was thinking about suddenly appear in front of him, so pleasantly surprised.

"You, are you real?" Ye Jinzhi suddenly asked.

Seeing his wife's cautious look, Yuan Shaochen felt a pain in his heart, sore.

"Try to see if it's true." Yuan Shaochen took Ye Jinzhi's hand.

Seeing that she was holding something in her hand, and looking down, it was the anti-wolf weapon he made for her, and felt even more uncomfortable.

He hugged her into his arms, rested his chin on her forehead, and the tip of his nose was filled with the smell of people he missed.

Neither of them spoke, they leaned against each other, absorbing the warmth from each other.

"Is it cold?" Yuan Shaochen touched Ye Jinzhi's exposed arm, feeling a little cold.

Ye Jinzhi didn't speak, but buried his head in Yuan Shaochen's chest, not daring to let go, for fear that he would disappear if he let go.

"Let's go back to the car first, shall we?" Yuan Shaochen whispered to his wife in his arms.

Ye Jinzhi nodded silently, but still tightly hugged Yuan Shaochen's waist, showing no intention of letting go of him.

Yuan Shaochen was not annoyed, on the contrary, he enjoyed it very much. He bent down to pick him up, and strode towards the car.

After getting in the car, Ye Jinzhi was willing to let go of Yuan Shaochen.

Yuan Shaochen nodded, and carefully placed the person in his arms on the seat, for fear of bumping into each other.

"You haven't been home yet?" Ye Jinzhi saw his luggage in the back seat.

"I want to see you first." Yuan Shaochen did not deny that he missed her so much.

The husband and wife snuggled together again, but it didn't feel right just to hug each other. At some point, the two of them sat facing each other.

The affection in the eyes gradually increased, and the temperature in the car gradually increased.

The panting sound became more and more obvious in the narrow space.

"Click."

The two finally separated slowly. Although their clothes hadn't changed, upon closer inspection, Ye Jinzhi's lips were moist and swollen.

"I still miss you."

The foreheads of the two were facing each other, and Yuan Shaochen's eyes were fixed on the person in front of him, and he couldn't get enough of it.

"Me too, I miss you too." Ye Jinzhi whispered with his arms around Yuan Shaochen's neck.

On the way back, Ye Jinzhi looked at the scenery passing by the car window, and suddenly remembered something.

"You pried open the car door?"

Ye Jinzhi remembered that he hadn't given him the key just now, but he opened the door.

"Yes." Yuan Shaochen nodded honestly without feeling guilty.

"I didn't even know you could pick locks?" Ye Jinzhi became interested.

"There are so many things you don't know."

They have learned a lot of skills, not only in physical fitness, fighting, and weapons, but also in many detailed tasks.

"Do you leave work so late every day?" Yuan Shaochen remembered that when he came back, she was about to leave work by the time.

He simply didn't go back to the compound first, but came to the company to pick her up first, but he never expected that he had to wait for three or four hours before seeing the figure.

If it wasn't for seeing that the lights in her company were always on, he would have suspected that she was not in the company.

Ye Jinzhi was a little guilty, and argued for himself: "No, it's just occasionally. Except for some problems with a project these days, I came back late."

This is true, no matter how much work she has left unfinished, she will go home on time, at worst, take the documents home to read, after all, there are several children in the family.

"Have you not eaten yet?" Ye Jinzhi suddenly remembered.

Yuan Shaochen didn't say a word, in fact, he didn't feel hungry, and he had to practice frequently in the past few years, so he was used to it.

but--

"Have you eaten yet?" Yuan Shaochen asked back.

"Of course I—" Ye Jinzhi just wanted to answer him confidently.

Suddenly remembered the meal that the assistant bought for her, because she was not hungry at the time, she put it aside and didn't eat it.

Ye Jinzhi didn't dare to speak anymore, turned his head away, looked out of the window and didn't dare to look at Yuan Shaochen again, feeling guilty.

Along the way, because of guilty conscience, Ye Jinzhi didn't dare to speak again, for fear of being caught in the wrong place again.

"Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow."

The doors of the house were half closed, and when Ye Jinzhi didn't come home, Hei Sang was always guarding the door, waiting for Ye Jinzhi to come back.

Today, not only did he receive Ye Jinzhi, but also Yuan Shaochen. Hei Sang was so excited that he threw his whole body on Yuan Shaochen.

"Shh, shhh, Hei Sang keep your voice down, don't wake up my brother and the others."

Yuan Shaochen held the luggage in one hand, and with his free hand, he touched the head of Hei Sang who was running up.

"Let's take a shower first." After driving for so many days, he must be uncomfortable.

Hei Sang hadn't seen Yuan Shaochen for a long time, so he was very excited tonight, and kept running to Yuan Shaochen's side.

The speed of Yuan Shaochen's bathing was out of practice, and he was done in no time.

"Are you hungry, what do you want to eat?" Yuan Shaochen came out shaking his hair and asked Ye Jinzhi.

"Anything is fine." Ye Jinzhi didn't have much appetite at night, if it wasn't for Yuan Shaochen, she might not even be able to eat.

"Then I'll cook some noodles, you go take a bath first, and come out to eat later."

Yuan Shaochen changed into his pajamas and was about to go downstairs to cook noodles when he saw a child standing by the door.

Niu Niu drank too much water at night and wanted to get up to go to the bathroom. When he saw the lights outside were on, he knew that his mother was back, so he wanted to come out to have a look.

Yuan Shaochen looked at the child in front of him, and quickly realized who it was.

"Niu Niu?"

Niu Niu looked up at the tall man in front of him, and already had a guess in his heart.

But it's been a long time since I saw him. Although he can write letters and even talk on the phone, he suddenly stands in front of him and doesn't know what to say.

He could only raise his face and nodded shyly.

There is also a photo of Yuan Shaochen at home, but looking at the photos is completely different from seeing the real person, Niu Niu is a little nervous.

"Why did you get up?" Yuan Shaochen also didn't know how to communicate with him, and the words he said were a bit harsh.

"Get up and go to the toilet." Niu Niu replied in a low voice.

Yuan Shaochen frowned, apparently dissatisfied with his answer, but he didn't know that he had just returned from the battlefield, and he still had a murderous look on him.

Niu Niu has a very sensitive mind, and quickly sensed other people's emotions. He was at a loss for a while, his face turned pale, and he took a small step back slowly.

At this time, Yuan Shaochen also realized that there might be something wrong with his attitude, which frightened him.

Afraid that the child would have a lump in his heart, he said to him: "Why do you speak so quietly, just like a girl, speak louder."

Niu Niu's complexion recovered a lot, knowing that it's not because he hates himself.

"What's the matter, has anyone woken up?" In the bathroom, Ye Jinzhi had also taken a shower.

Wearing a bathrobe and wrapping her hair in a towel.

As soon as I came out, I saw one big and one small face to face, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

"Is Niu Niu unable to sleep?" Ye Jin stepped forward and took Niu Niu's hand.

"No, I got up to go to the bathroom and heard my mother come back."

Ye Jinzhi smiled and nodded, and brought him to Yuan Shaochen's side, "Does Niu Niu remember who he is?"

Being pulled by his mother, he was not so afraid when facing Yuan Shaochen.

Holding Ye Jinzhi tightly with one hand, he was a little shy when he heard Ye Jinzhi ask such a question, his little face slowly blushed, and he nodded shyly.

"What does Niu Niu want to call him?" Ye Jinzhi was persuasive.

In fact, after Niu Niu changed his words, he also changed his address to Yuan Shaochen, but he had been writing letters before, even if he was called Yuan Shaochen, he was still on the phone.

"Father." Niu Niu whispered, the voice was as small as a mosquito.

And Yuan Shaochen also responded to Ye Jinzhi's constant hints in his eyes, "En."

Hearing the response, Niu Niu's face turned even redder, and the corners of his mouth slowly rose, extremely happy.

"Then let Dad carry Niu Niu back to the room to sleep, okay?" Ye Jinzhi took the opportunity to match their feelings.

Yuan Shaochen felt two eyes looking at him in unison, especially Niu Niu, the eyes were both anticipation and fear.

Facing the two pairs of eyes, how could Yuan Shaochen say "no", nodded, squatted down and hugged Niu Niu up.

"Huh!" Niu Niu was not ready yet, and was suddenly picked up, a little nervous, and quickly hugged Yuan Shaochen's neck.

"Go." Watching the back of the father and son leaving.

Walking in the corridor, it was the first time for Niu Niu to be so close to his father. The fear just now dissipated at this moment, and there was only a great sense of satisfaction.

When he arrived at the room, Yuan Shaochen was about to put him on the bed when he heard a voice next to his ear: "Father."

Yuan Shaochen's movements didn't change, he just put him under the quilt and rubbed his hair, "Go to bed early."

He helped the two children cover the quilts, and then turned off the lights and left after he closed his eyes.

As everyone knows, after he left, Niu Niu's eyes opened again, even in the dark, they were surprisingly bright, showing how excited he was, his little mouth raised uncontrollably.

After Yuan Shaochen returned, Ye Jinzhi was sitting on the sofa wiping his hair, but he didn't raise his head when he heard the voice, "Are you asleep?"

"Sleeping." As he spoke, he took the towel from Ye Jinzhi's hand and helped Ye Jinzhi wipe his hair.

Ye Jinzhi didn't refuse either, it would be great if someone could help him save his energy.

"You were too fierce just now." Ye Jinzhi said vaguely while hugging Yuan Shaochen's waist.

"Where is the fierceness?" Yuan Shaochen felt that he was already very gentle.

Ye Jinzhi let go of his hand, raised his head, and pointed to the scar at the corner of his eye, there was a shallow scar at the corner of his eye.

"Here, this scar looks scary, and haven't you noticed that you have a murderous look on your body?"

Yuan Shaochen shook his head, he didn't know.

However, Ye Jinzhi stood up suddenly, and Yuan Shaochen didn't react for a while, afraid that she would fall, he quickly reached out to support her waist.

Ye Jinzhi stood on tiptoe and kissed Yuan Shaochen lightly on the lips, "No matter what you become, I still like you very much."

The unexpected confession made Yuan Shaochen's ears gradually bloodshot.
