After chatting with them, Cai Runnian entered the small door on the east side with the help of others. The others went to the entertainment hall on the east side.
Zhang Zhiyuan didn't let Lu Yiwei watch the battle, but said: "You can do whatever you want. Come pick me up tomorrow morning."
Lu Yiwei asked with concern: "Do you have enough money?"
"You don't have to worry about it.
”
Walking out of the East Lake Club, Lu Yiwei drove aimlessly on the street. After a street, he suddenly found out that the residential area opposite was the place where his ex-wife, Li Shu-man lived. He looked at his watch, it was already 9: 30 pm. He couldn't decide whether he should go in or not.
Thinking that he hadn't seen his daughter for a long time, Lu Yiwei made up his mind and parked the car on the side of the road. He bought a lot of food at the roadside supermarket and walked in with an uneasy heart.
At this time, Li Shu-man was sitting on the sofa, knitting a sweater and watching TV. His daughter, Xiao Yu, finished her homework and went to bed. Living alone was lonely, especially after the divorce, the desire for a family was stronger than ever. She spent almost every day and night thinking about the memories she had with Lu Yiwei. It was so beautiful and sweet. However, that man didn't belong to her, he became someone else's man.
"Ring, ring, ring …" The doorbell rang. Li Shu-man looked up at the clock on the wall, thinking that it was the neighbor from next door, so he opened the door without thinking. When he saw Lu Yiwei standing in front of him, Li Shu-man couldn't believe his eyes. He stared at the man he longed for day and night, forgetting to let him in.
Lu Yiwei raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Don't you welcome me?"
"Ah … Oh …" Li Shu-man retracted his eyes in panic. He was so nervous that he didn't know what to do. He quickly took out a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet, placed them in front of Lu Yiwei, took the things from his hand and put them on the table, rushed into the bedroom and closed the door.
Li Shu-man leaned against the door and closed his eyes to calm himself down. His tears fell unknowingly.
The person she had been thinking about all day had finally appeared. She still couldn't believe that this was real. She pinched her arm hard, and after feeling the bone-chilling pain, she believed that it was true. She could no longer control her emotions. She threw herself onto the bed, bit her lips, and cried in a low voice.
After crying for a while, she remembered that Lu Yiwei was alone outside, so she hurriedly got up and tied up her disheveled hair in front of the mirror. She also put on some light makeup. When she was satisfied, she giggled in front of the mirror.
A woman's temperament was fickle. Just now, she was crying loudly, but now, she was laughing excitedly. She rummaged through her wardrobe for the clothes she thought were the prettiest and put them on. After a long time, she slowly walked out.
She wanted to give Lu Yiwei a surprise, but she didn't expect him to fall asleep on the sofa. She was disappointed and distressed. She took out a blanket from the bedroom and carefully covered him with it. Then, she sat on the side and quietly looked at the man who didn't belong to her.
Li Shu-man knew everything about Lu Yiwei. Especially when Xia Jinhe's family made such a big move some time ago, making their relationship, which was originally a taboo, public. When Li Shu-man found out, she didn't know whether she should be sad or happy. She was sad because another woman took away her man, but she was happy because Lu Yiwei finally found someone to take care of him.
Women were selfish and would never allow another woman to fall in love with their man. But Li Shu-man was extremely conflicted. It was impossible for them to get back together, but she didn't want Lu Yiwei to get married again. She would be satisfied even if they maintained the status quo. However, this was unfair to Lu Yiwei. Why couldn't he find the happiness that belonged to him?
"Mom, why aren't you sleeping?" Lu Feiyu sleepily got up to go to the bathroom and saw Li Shu-man sitting on the sofa. She asked with concern.
Li Shu-man hurriedly put her finger to her mouth and whispered, "Shh." Then, she pointed at Lu Yiwei, who was lying on the sofa.
"Dad!" Lu Feiyu didn't care about her mother's little tricks. When she saw her father, who she missed day and night, she shouted excitedly and rushed over.
Lu Yiwei was suddenly awakened from his dream by his daughter. When he saw his daughter's lovely face, he didn't feel sleepy at all. He sat up and caught Xiao Yu, who was rushing over, and hugged her in his arms and kissed her.
"Haha!" His daughter giggled when she was pricked by Lu Yiwei's beard. She kept burrowing into his arms and pushed his mouth away with her hand. "Dad, you should shave your beard!"
Lu Yiwei was aroused by his daughter's childish words. He rubbed his beard against Xiao Yu's face, making Xiao Yu laugh. When Li Shu-man saw this scene, he felt extremely happy. There was laughter in the empty room. Now this could be considered a home.
After playing for a while, Xiao Yu suddenly said seriously, "Dad, why haven't you come to see me for so long?"
Xiao Yu's question stunned Lu Yiwei, and he didn't know how to answer. Li Shu-man came to the rescue in time. "Your dad is busy with work …"
Lu Yiwei also said with a smile, "Yes, dad is very busy with work."
"Then why are other children's dads also busy with work? Why is it that their dads pick me up every day, but only my mom takes me to school?" Xiao Yu asked childishly.
Lu Yiwei was stunned again that children had their own ideas. Li Shu-man hurriedly said, "Xiao Yu, your dad works in his hometown. Every time he comes, he has to travel a long way. Unlike other children's dads, they work in Jiangdong. You have to understand your dad."
"Then dad can also work in Jiangdong. That way, I can see him every day." Xiao Yu said with grievance.
Lu Yiwei's heart melted, and he was completely moved by his daughter's childish words. He really wanted to tell his daughter that dad would not leave and would stay to accompany her. But, would it work?
Li Shu-man said again, "Xiao Yu, your dad said that when you grow up, he will come to accompany you."
"Really?" Xiao Yu's bright eyes rolled around.
"Yes." Lu Yiwei nodded with tears in his eyes.
"Then let's pinky swear!" Xiao Yu said and stretched out his little hand in front of Lu Yiwei.
Lu Yiwei stretched out his hand to pinky swear with Xiao Yu, but his heart was bleeding.
"Dad, don't leave tonight, okay?" Xiao Yu once again raised a seemingly ordinary question.
Lu Yiwei looked at Li Shu-man and nodded.
"That's great!" Xiao Yu suddenly clapped his hands, one hand holding Lu Yiwei, the other hand holding Li Shu-man, and said excitedly, "Tonight, I want dad and mom to sleep with me."
The two looked at each other again, and Li Shu-man lowered his head awkwardly, but his heart was in turmoil, and he had mixed feelings.
Under Xiao Yu's insistence, Lu Yiwei was pulled into the bedroom. Xiao Yu jumped onto the bed like a little rabbit, patted the bed, and arranged, "Dad sleeps on the left, mom sleeps on the right, and I'll sleep in the middle. Hurry up and take off your clothes."
Li Shu-man looked at Lu Yiwei standing there awkwardly, and comforted Xiao Yu, "Xiao Yu, you've grown up. You should sleep in your own room, okay?"
"No, no!" Xiao Yu pouted, "I want dad and mom to accompany me!"
For his daughter, Lu Yiwei steeled his heart, took off his coat, and crawled into the bed. Seeing this, Xiao Yu nestled in Lu Yiwei's arms like a little sparrow. She looked at her father anxiously and said, "Daddy, can you tell me a story?"
"Xiao Yu, what story do you want to hear?"
"I want to hear the story of Little Red Riding Hood!"
"Okay." At this moment, Lu Yiwei felt how irresponsible he was. He couldn't even satisfy his daughter's small request. He tried to recall the fairy tales he remembered, but he couldn't remember them.
Li Shu-man also laid down, and carried Xiao Yu over. "Mom will tell you. Let dad wash up. Look at how dirty he is!" As he spoke, he looked at Lu Yiwei affectionately.
Lu Yiwei finally realized these details, and he got up and walked out.
"I want to go too!" Xiao Yu suddenly stood up and climbed out of bed.
Lu Yiwei squatted down and said to Xiao Yu word by word, "Dad wants to wash Stinky. I'll be here soon."
"You won't run away, right?"
"…"
"Then go." Xiao Yu saw that Lu Yiwei didn't answer, and agreed to his request.
After entering the bathroom, Lu Yiwei locked the door. Looking at himself in the mirror, the depression that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time finally broke out. He used his arm to support himself against the wall, and quietly sobbed. He owed too much to his daughter …
"Dad, are you done?" In less than a minute, his daughter was already standing outside the door shouting.
Lu Yiwei quickly wiped his tears, and said hoarsely, "Dad will be done soon."
"I'll wait for you." As he spoke, Xiao Yu took a small stool and sat at the door of the bathroom, waiting for Lu Yiwei.
After washing up, Lu Yiwei opened the door and saw that Xiao Yu was waiting for him. His heart was in a mess. He picked up his daughter, rode on her head, and happily "flew" to the bedroom.
Little Yu kept asking about this and that. She even brought all the paintings she had drawn to the bed and explained them seriously one by one. Lu Yiwei held his daughter and listened patiently. Seeing this scene, Li Shu-man was very happy. She hoped that this happy moment would be fixed, and she would give her daughter a complete home. But when she thought that Lu Yiwei would leave tomorrow, she felt very sad.
Xiao Yu didn't fall asleep until very late. When she fell asleep, she tightly held Lu Yiwei's hand, afraid that he would leave. Without Xiao Yu's voice, the two adults instantly quieted down, not knowing what to say.
"You and Xiao Yu sleep here, I'll go to her room." Li Shu-man said sensitively.
Seeing that Li Shu-man was about to get off the bed, Lu Yiwei hurriedly said: "You stay."
Li Shu-man sat on the edge of the bed for a long time, and then returned to the bed. She nervously hugged her daughter's doll, with nowhere to put her hands.
"How are you these days?" Lu Yiwei spoke first.
"En." Li Shu-man nodded.
A simple conversation ended, and the two suddenly had no topic to talk about. Lu Yiwei looked around the room and said: "I see that there are a lot of new buildings in Qiyang District. When you have time, you can go and take a look. If there's anything you like, let me know. It's not a good idea to stay here."
"No need, this place is good, and it's close to the school." Li Shu-man didn't want Lu Yiwei to spend money.
Lu Yiwei was determined to compensate the mother and daughter, and said: "If you don't want to see it, I'll make the decision myself. I'll buy it tomorrow."
"No!" Li Shu-man understood Lu Yiwei's character, and he did what he said, and hurriedly said: "There's really no need. We don't need it for the time being. Let's wait until Xiao Yu is in primary school. "
