unexpected rain

"So it was adopted!" Xie Zhaofeng suddenly realized, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

"What do you think, who am I married to?" Lin Ji looked at him strangely.

"Who let you say that you have a son so suddenly, I don't think so much." Xie Zhaofeng said, it's good if it's not his own, otherwise he will have another biological mother later, and he will be even more hopeless.

Before going home, they went to the supermarket first.

Gaga likes to go to the supermarket the most. Going to the supermarket with her favorite dad is double the happiness.

After Lin put Jiajia into the shopping cart, he pushed and said to Xie Zhaofeng: "You came too suddenly, I don't have any food at home."

"It's okay." Xie Zhaofeng was still happy, "I like coming to the supermarket."

"Ah..." Lin Ji nodded slowly, wondering if it was his illusion, today's Xie Zhaofeng is a bit strange.

Of course, Xie Zhaofeng didn't have such hobbies, but walking side by side with Lin Ji in the supermarket and blending into this very life-like environment, it seemed that the distance between him and Lin Ji was closer than that in the office just now.

"Dad, that!" Gaga's eyes sparkled, pointing to the potato chips piled up like a hill in front of her.

"Want to eat potato chips again? The blister on my tongue just disappeared last week." Lin Ji said.

Jiajia flattened her mouth aggrieved, "I only want to eat after it disappears."

"I'll buy jelly for you, and I'll eat potato chips next time." Lin Ji patted his little head.

"Oh." Gaga said with drooping eyebrows.

While Lin Ji was going to the seasoning area, Xie Zhaofeng pushed Jiajia to the potato chip mountain, generously put a few large bags into the car, Jiajia was startled, tightly grasped the handle of the shopping cart, and looked at Xie Zhaofeng with round eyes.

"Your father won't let you eat it, so Uncle Xie will buy it for you." Xie Zhaofeng smiled very kindly.

But Jia Jia didn't know him well, so she felt uneasy, and whispered: "Thank you uncle, I, I won't eat."

"Are you afraid your father will say it? It's okay, I will take care of it." Xie Zhaofeng tried to establish a unified trench relationship with Jia Jia.

But Gaga's head shook like a rattle.

Xie Zhaofeng asked: "What's the matter, baby, didn't you say you want to eat?"

"Dad said you can't eat it." Jiajia said softly, "You must listen to Dad."

He is so obedient, it makes Xie Zhaofeng feel guilty that he is abducting children.

"What a good boy." Xie Zhaofeng patted Jiajia's head lovingly, "Actually, that was the test that Uncle gave you just now. If you pass the test, Uncle will give you a reward."

Children love to hear "rewards", and Jiajia is no exception. His little face is full of anticipation, "What reward?"

"I will reward you for picking the item you want most in the supermarket." Xie Zhaofeng said, "Of course, except potato chips."

Gaga said cheerfully: "Okay!"

Unexpectedly, Gaga asked for a carload of canned cat food.

Xie Zhaofeng remembered that since Lin had a cat at home, he didn't think too much about it. Seeing Jiajia's happy appearance, he felt that his relationship with him was getting closer, so he said, "Jiajia, we are also friends, right?"

Gaga thought for a while and nodded.

"Then I have a few questions I want to ask you, can you answer them for me?" Xie Zhaofeng put on a troubled look.

The kind Gaga immediately said: "Yes!"

Xie Zhaofeng lowered his waist and leaned against Jiajia's ear and asked in a low voice: "After your father came to Rongshi, did he have close contacts with anyone?"

"Close?" Gaga tilted her head in confusion.

"It's the kind of intimacy, like holding hands, hugging shoulders, and kissing cheeks." Xie Zhaofeng said.

Gaga said, "Yes."

Xie Zhaofeng's expression went blank for a moment, his heart was like thunder and lightning, and it started to rain cats and dogs.

"It's me." Gaga said innocently.

Xie Zhaofeng's brain shook for a moment, and the tragic picture froze immediately, "Yes, it's you?!" He breathed a sigh of relief, feeling grateful that he survived the catastrophe, "Baby Gaga, you almost scared to death me."

Jia Jia didn't understand what he meant, and bit her finger suspiciously.

"Apart from you?" Xie Zhaofeng asked again.

Gaga shook her head, "Not anymore."

"Then is he in contact with a person surnamed Prime Minister?" Xie Zhaofeng asked nervously.

"Phase?" Gaga shook her head, "I don't know..."

Xie Zhaofeng wanted to ask again, but Lin came over, "How did you get here? I searched for a long time."

"Dad!" Gaga yelled crisply, "Uncle Xie rewarded me with a lot of canned cat food!"

"Why buy so many cans?" Lin Ji asked in surprise.

Gaga said: "I bought a lot of my aunt's canned food, so you don't have to work so hard to earn money for the canned food from my aunt."

Lin was both funny and moved, "Thank you Jiajia."

Jia Jia grabbed Xie Zhaofeng's sleeve and said, "Thank you Uncle Xie."

Xie Zhaofeng felt the warmth between the father and son, and this warmth also flowed through his heart, which seemed to warm him up. He smiled silly and said, "It's like stammering, hahaha."

Lin Ji: "..."

Gaga: "..."

Back home, Lin let Gajia watch TV by himself, he walked into the kitchen with the ingredients, and Xie Zhaofeng followed.

"Let me help." Xie Zhaofeng said.

"Huh? No need, I can do it alone." Lin Ji said, "The kitchen is small, so it's inconvenient for two people."

Xie Zhaofeng said heartily.I just came here to see the kitchen boy.

"I've troubled you too much today, and I'm sorry if you don't let me do something." Xie Zhaofeng looked sincerely guilty.

"You are a guest, shouldn't I do more?" Lin Ji asked inexplicably.

Xie Zhaofeng didn't care, he must stay in the kitchen.

Since Lin had to ask him to do something, Xie Zhaofeng can cook, so it is also possible to ask him to help chop vegetables.

Although it was to help, Xie Zhaofeng's attention was always on Lin Ji. He still remembered Lin Ji wearing an apron and cooking. The last time he saw him, Xiang Shifang asked him to come over. That guy seemed to deliberately put his treasured treasure He came out to show them a look, wearing soft home clothes, with a virtuous and docile appearance, which made Xie Zhaofeng covet him.

But today, without Xiang Shifang or Qiao Nuo, Lin is neither anyone's treasure, he can quietly occupy him...

"Xie Zhaofeng?" Lin Ji touched his arm, "What I want is diced onion, and you are about to chop it into minced onions."

"Ah?" Xie Zhaofeng came back to his senses, he hurriedly stopped the knife, and subconsciously covered it up by rubbing his eyes, "I was thinking about something just now... Oh my god! I'm so hot!"

"Why did you touch your eyes with the hand that just cut the onion?" Lin was both surprised and helpless, "Wash your hands, Gaga! Bring me a wet towel."

In the end, Xie Zhaofeng was forced to leave the kitchen, and Jiajia thoughtfully helped him press the towel on his face.

Xie Zhaofeng was a little discouraged, "Jajia, isn't uncle very stupid?"

Gaga didn't have time to answer, he said again: "Would your father like such a stupid person?"

"??"

"Are you willing to accept such a stupid stepmother?"

"????"

"Alas..." Xie Zhaofeng sighed deeply, and his cell phone rang suddenly.

"Hello?" Xie Zhaofeng was weak.

"I want to discuss with you a few points about the information you sent today."

Xie Zhaofeng's mind was agitated, "Shifang?"

"Why so surprised?"

"No..." Xie Zhaofeng made a hush gesture with Gagabi, and said, "I'm not in a position right now, let's talk about it tomorrow."

"Why is it inconvenient? Where are you?" Xiang Shifang asked coldly.

"..." Xie Zhaofeng threw the towel, "There is no need to report to you, right?"

"You are with Lin Ji." Xiang Shifang stated indifferently.

Xie Zhaofeng was silent.

Xiang Shifang, who was far away in Yong City, had a dark complexion, and his neatly trimmed nails seemed to be piercing into the bones of his palms. He said every word, grimly, "Don't touch him."

Xie Zhaofeng looked towards the kitchen, he could see Lin Ji's thin back, his waist was so slender, but this man had been crushed into the dust by fate, his not-so-stalwart body withstood the crushing blow, with perseverance and gentleness, save yourself.

Xie Zhaofeng seemed to hear himself sigh, "Shifang, we have known each other for more than 20 years. Since we were young, people have always said that we have different personalities, and it is unbelievable to be friends. But I know that it is because our personalities are different. It just complements each other, all along, we have you help me, I help you, needless to say anything, put each other in the most trusted position."

"I've never snatched anything from you, but only this time, I don't want to miss it."

"..." Xiang Shifang's blood flowed backwards, squeezing every blood vessel fiercely. He felt betrayed, angry and panicked. This feeling was different from when he learned that Qiao Nuo still liked Lin Ji , because at that time he could be sure that Lin Ji would not be attracted by others, but now he has no confidence, Xie Zhaofeng is by Lin Ji's side, Lin Ji has no hostility towards him, after a major blow, how could Lin Ji not want to get a new one? cure?

"...Impossible." Xiang Shifang's voice trembled slightly, "Xie Zhaofeng, Lin is... mine."

"He's not." Xie Zhaofeng's tone was firm and cold, "You have already broken up, and you have a fiancée, Shifang, you can't be so greedy."

"I will not marry Pa Ruixi, the engagement will be dissolved sooner or later." Xiang Shifang said, "On that day, I will come to Lin Ji."

"Then, does Lin Ji have to accept you?" Xie Zhaofeng said, "He doesn't want to see you, and even came to work in Rongshi. You won't forget the real reason, right?"

"I haven't forgotten." Xiang Shifang said, "I will make it up to him."

"Don't you think it's too late? Shifang, what Lin Ji wants is to be a stranger to you."

"Impossible, he loves me, if you don't believe me, ask." Although Xiang Shifang said so, he knew that his pride was falling apart.

Xie Zhaofeng shook his head helplessly, "I'm sick, so I asked him this? I don't have time to talk to you, hang up and bye."

He decisively cut off the call.

Then he found that Gaga, who was sitting next to him, was gone.

Lin came out of the kitchen with Gaga in his arms.

"When is the meal ready? I'm so hungry." Xie Zhaofeng smiled brightly at Lin Ji.

"..." Lin Ji looked at him delicately, "There is still half an hour."

"Oh." Xie Zhaofeng noticed that the father and son looked at him in the same way, he touched his face in confusion, "There is something on my face."

One big and one small shook their heads together.

"Then why are you looking at me like that?"

Lin Ji hesitated and said, "Just now Jiajia said that you want to be his stepmother?"

Xie Zhaofeng: "..."

Xie Zhaofeng: "Can you?"

Lin Ji: "..."

Lin Ji: "Not really."

Xie Zhao collapsed like the sky: "Why?!"

"Why?" Lin Ji laughed, "You are an aspiring young man, what kind of hobby do you want to be a child's stepmother?"

"The point is not this..." Xie Zhaofeng was weak.

Lin only thought he was joking, put Gaga down, and went back to the kitchen.

Xie Zhaofeng lifted Jiajia up again, made a fierce face, and said harshly: "Are you suing your father? See how I punish you!"

While scratching Gajia's creaking nest, he raised it up and down.

Gaga thought it was very funny, and she couldn't stop giggling.

Half an hour later, dinner was served.

Jia Jia sat next to Lin Ji, and Xie Zhaofeng was opposite them.

Seeing Lin Ji filling the rice, Xie Zhaofeng had a strong sense of being a family of three, and he felt very warm.

But before he could eat, Lin Ji's cell phone rang.

He got up to look, it was Song Liyuan calling.

"Rihara, have you eaten?"

"I just came back from eating. Uncle Lin, I have something important to tell you. Just your ex-boyfriend. He came to your house again today! He even said he would stay here for a long time!"

"……what?"
