For the love of the white moonlight

13

Song Jingwen didn't think too much about this invitation, she just did it out of sheer thought. It's better to have more people for this dinner than he and Song Zhang and his son are relatively silent.

Secretary Zhang and Dong Xiao made some excuses, but he stayed behind in the end.

But the atmosphere at the dinner table was still not lively. Song Zhang didn't talk much at first, but in front of him, he practiced the principle of not talking when eating.

The secretary wanted to tease the child, and asked Song Zhang, "How long will you stay here this time?"

Song Zhang glanced at him before opening his mouth: "Half a month."

Song Jingwen understands too well that children just obey the arrangement, but they may not like it.They don't see each other a few times a year. It is necessary for the child to reunite with him during the vacation, but he is too busy to spend much time with his son on vacation.

Brief silence.

Dong Xiao suddenly smiled and asked Song Zhang: "How will you spend this half month? Have you thought about it? For example, where do you want to go and what do you want to do?"

Song Jingwen lowered her head to eat, but she still opened her ears.Song Zhang is too sensible and rarely asks him. He also wants to listen to his son's own demands.

But Song Zhang was still as sensible as ever, and said, "I'm reading at home." Glancing at him, he said, "I've brought a lot of extracurricular books."

Song Jingwen didn't speak, and couldn't speak.

If the son is so sensible, other parents might be happy, but the eight-year-old child only sees what should be done, and seems to lack some vitality.No father would like to see his child like an obedient machine.

He had no taste for this meal.

His idea: simply follow Song Zhang's wishes.

After dinner, Dong Xiao and the secretary bid farewell and left.

Song Jingwen looked back at the child, "Do you really plan to read at home every day? There are a few scenic spots here that are worth visiting. You can go out and have a look."

Song Zhang shook his head, "No need."

That's right, both father and son understand that Song Jingwen himself has no time to accompany the child, and only his subordinates can take Song Zhang out.Most of these young people didn't have a family, and they were in awe of Song Jingwen himself, and they were too cautious and polite to the boss's only son. Song Zhang himself could feel that kind of flattery, and he might not like it.

Song Jingwen said: "Okay, tell me where you want to go."

It seems that Song Zhang will spend the next half month at home with the nanny, so that's it, staying at home is considered a vacation, not to mention that the current hot weather is really not suitable for going out.

Song Jingwen figured this out, and heard Song Zhang answer yes, saying, "That's how it is."

Song Zhang said, "I'll take a shower first."

Song Jingwen stood alone in the living room, still a little helpless and distressed.Song Zhang is indeed excellent in some aspects, but being too quiet is a serious disadvantage. Children of this age have no playmates in school, are introverted, and even show signs of lack of social skills.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

Opening the door, Song Jingwen was stunned when she saw Dong Xiao who had gone and returned.

What Dong Xiao said surprised him even more, "Mr. Song, do you think this is okay? I will come here to accompany Song Zhang tomorrow, and I will take him wherever he wants to go."

The big boy was covered with sweat and his eyes were scorchingly bright.

Song Jingwen asked in disbelief, "What did you say?"

Dong Xiao looked at him earnestly: "I mean, since you are so busy, I'll entertain Song Zhang."

This child is coming to take care of the child for him?

Song Jingwen didn't even think about it, and declined politely: "Thank you for your kindness, but Song Zhang doesn't need special entertainment, he himself... doesn't like to play around very much, just stay at home."

Dong Xiao didn't retreat at all, "Mr. Song, there is no child who doesn't like to play around."

Song Jingwen immediately pursed her lips and remained silent.

In front of him, Dong Xiao was tall and straight, with picturesque eyebrows.On the young boy's heroic face, the smile was a little weaker than before, but the brilliance in his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate layers of thick clouds, or every dark crevice.

Dong Xiao had been here for more than ten days, and only then did Song Jingwen connect the person in front of him with the child from many years ago.

Yes, Dong Xiao is an orphan, or an orphan who has been sponsored by him. There is a special emphasis on charity, and he wants to visit orphans. If he does it carefully, he shouldn't let his children who are loved by thousands Appearing in front of these children without parents, after all, the gap in comparison is also hurt.

Thinking of this level, Song Jingwen became more determined, "No need, you can go back."

But Dong Xiao seemed to see through what he was thinking, and quickly said: "I know what you are worried about. If you really think the same as me, then I want to say that there is no need for you to worry. I am already an adult, and people always It’s time to move forward.”

Then, the smile became brighter, "To put it bluntly, I just want to do something for you, so that I can feel at ease."

Please be at ease.

So, how much tenderness is hidden in the ill-fated Dong Xiao's heart? Many years later, Song Jingwen repeatedly thought of this scene.

It was clear that he wanted to help him, but Dong Xiao said it was asking for his own peace of mind.

Song Jingwen could no longer say no.

What's more, he did have selfish intentions.

The next morning, Dong Xiao showed up at Song Jingwen's villa on time.

Song Xian obviously knew that he was coming, there was no surprise at all, let alone resistance, when he heard Dong Xiao say early to him, he also answered early, very polite.

Knowing that the nanny would prepare a nutritious breakfast, Dong Xiao still brought Song Zhang breakfast: shrimp dumplings and rice rolls packed from a time-honored tea restaurant in the city.

Song Zhang heard Dong Xiao say that he had to wait in line for half an hour to buy these things, so he immediately picked up a shrimp dumpling with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, chewing carefully.

Dong Xiao sat opposite with his head on his arms, "How does it taste?"

Song Zhang nodded, "That's right." Then he turned his eyes away, "I'll leave the rest and eat slowly."

What's the taste of breakfast at noon, but Dong Xiao didn't poke it, and said with a smile: "Okay."

This child is only eight years old, but he is really full of virtue.

Dong Xiao left and returned the night before, because Secretary Zhang said something like this to him on the way out.

"Don't look at the boss's high position and authority. If a person wants to get to his level, there are too many things that need to be discarded."

Dong Xiao understood that Miss Zhang was lamenting Song Jingwen's family.

But he still asked to the end, "How do you say that?"

Ms. Zhang sighed: "Little Song Zhang comes here twice a year, and he also stayed here for a week during the winter vacation. During the whole week, the boss tried his best to find time to eat two meals with the child. On the day Song Zhang left, the boss was in a very bad mood. You could tell he felt sorry for the kid."

On the way, Dong Xiao pondered over these words over and over again.

I'm sorry, it's naturally Song Jingwen who has regrets in her heart, so let the child have a good summer vacation this time without leaving any regrets, it should be better.

After all, talking is better than nothing.

Dong Xiao has a lot of experience in playing with children. In the orphanage, it was common for older children to pull out younger ones.

He felt that he needed to understand the situation, and asked Song Zhang: "Before you came here, what did you do at home?"

Song Zhang replied simply: "In class, I have several teachers."

Dong Xiao understood immediately. It seemed that Song Zhang was a good student. The tutor only needed to be responsible for the subject she was teaching. As for the nanny, it was her only pursuit that the children were fed, clothed, warm and not making noise. Who would care about it? Whether the child's nature is suppressed.

In the morning, Song Zhang read at home for a while, and Dong Xiao accompanied him silently at first without disturbing him.

At ten o'clock, Dong Xiao saw that the child was reading a popular science magazine such as geography, and said, "Let's go out and have a look."

Song Zhang raised his head.

Dong Xiao said: "There is a saying that what you get on paper is always shallow. Let's go outside and see that the customs in the south are quite different from those in the north."

Song Zhang glanced out the window, shook his head, "The sun is too big."

Dong Xiao persuaded: "It's windy today, let's wear hats and hold umbrellas, it's fine. Being at home all day makes people feel bored."

Song Zhang didn't agree immediately, he looked a bit hesitant.

That is, there is no child who does not like to play around.The boy is too quiet, the reason is that in the final analysis, he was put in a box by various rules at a young age, and no one played with him.

"Alright then," the child finally closed the book after a while.

Upon hearing this, the nanny quickly objected, "It's so hot outside, why do you have to go out now?"

Just as Dong Xiao was about to say something, Song Zhang's face darkened, "Forget it, I'm not going anywhere."

After the child finished speaking, he immediately got up and walked towards the room, obviously angry.Only then did Dong Xiao see Song Zhang's temper, and he didn't recover for a moment. It only took a second for the sunny to cloudy...to be caught off guard.

Song Zhang plunged into the room and did not come out. The nanny showed an uncomfortable look, "Hey! I just said one thing..."

She went to knock on the door, "Auntie has no other intentions, if you really want to go out, just be careful."

Dong Xiao also followed, the door suddenly opened, Song Zhang stood in the room, looked up at them: "I don't want to go anywhere." Then he closed the door.

Really stubborn and withdrawn?

Children usually quarrel with adults, lose their temper when they have a temper, and quarrel until they are satisfied if they are not satisfied. Song Zhang is sulking on his own, and it is still in a situation where the situation can be completely reversed?

Dong Xiao suddenly felt that it was difficult, and it was obviously impossible to continue to cling to him right now.He whispered to the nanny: "Auntie, has Song Zhang been like this?"

The nanny sighed, "Isn't it? This child is obedient, but his temper is unpredictable. When his mother was still there, he liked to play games with a tablet. His mother only said one thing, children should not Always playing computer games, he immediately deleted all the games on the tablet, and just ignored his mother all afternoon."

Dong Xiao: "Ah?" What kind of number is this?

The nanny said: "This child's parents are busy, and he spends most of his time with the old man. The old man always said that he is like Mr. Song. He has been better and more sensible than other children since he was a child. He is used to hearing good things, but he is still a child after all. He doesn't like others. Say what he did wrong. Hey, it's all my fault today, I know his temper, so I shouldn't have said that just now. "

Dong Xiao suddenly realized.

Song Zhang has been pushed to a high place since he was a child. He cares too much about what he looks like in the eyes of others, but his nature is not lost, and he occasionally shows a bit of childishness.

Song Jingwen's father is his role model, so Song Jingwen himself has always lived like this?

It was close to noon, and the sun was shining brightly outside the window, so it was no longer suitable to go out.

At lunch, Song Zhang came out to fill his stomach without saying a word, and Dong Xiao seized the opportunity to tell a few interesting things about when he first came to the city to study.In this way, the focus of the small cadres was really targeted. Song Zhang couldn't help but asked: "I've heard of your school, and it's one of the best film schools. How do you take the acting class? It's the same as a normal university. The teacher said on the podium, you sit down and listen?"

Dong Xiao quickly seized the opportunity, and vividly described to the children the types of acting classes and the situation where everyone took turns to show off their skills and let the teacher comment.

Song Zhang listened carefully and said enviously: "This is very cool."

Then she showed a bit of a childish look, and showed off without any trace: "My mother's school is also very good. She is the youngest doctor and the youngest chief physician in their hospital."

Dong Xiao opened his eyes wide and admired sincerely: "Wow, she is really amazing."

Satisfied, Song Zhang lowered his head and nodded, "Yes."

Dong Xiao couldn't help reaching out and rubbing the child's head.The child's heart is clean. With Song Zhang's background, parents can show off so much capital, but the child chose one who was not born with it, but achieved it through acquired efforts.

Now that his mother has passed away, Song Zhang worships and remembers her at the same time, and the sadness in it may not be humane.

Dong Xiao remembered Song Jingwen's forced smile when he failed to please the children with carbonated drinks last night.

Both the father and son exude a strange aura: Judging by universal values, they are obviously living a good life, far from meeting the standard of who needs sympathy, but the details make people feel useless for unknown reasons. The words are bleak.

After dinner, Dong Xiao finally seized the opportunity to make a suggestion to the child: "You stay at home all day, let's go out to get some air?"

With the lessons learned in the morning, the nanny hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, going for a walk after dinner can help you digest food."

Song Zhang hesitated for a few seconds, then glanced at the sky outside the window, "Where else can I go now?"

Dong Xiao smiled: "The old gymnasium is not far from here, it should be very lively now."

On this day, Song Jingwen tried to go home as early as possible, and still did not enter the house until after 08:30.

Just after changing shoes, the door opened again.Dong Xiao and Song Zhang stood outside the door, their foreheads were sweating, and their faces were flushed with heat.

Dong Xiao's smile was as bright as usual, and Song Zhang's eyes were also bright.The two seemed to be talking about something, and they stopped when they saw him.

Song Jingwen asked, "Where did you go?"

Dong Xiao seemed to be silent on purpose, and left the answer to Song Zhang.

Song Zhang stepped into the house, "We went to the nearby gymnasium."

After getting closer, Song Jingwen smelled the subtle smell of sweat on his son's body, which rose with the heat.

That's it, a boy's summer should be sweaty, lively, jumpy, and full of life.

Song Jingwen couldn't help but take a deep look at Dong Xiao, who pursed his lips and smiled without saying a word.

Song Jingwen understood, let the two into the room, and asked his son: "You look very happy, what did you play?"

The heat of excitement on Song Zhang’s body has not dissipated, “There are people playing football on the outdoor court there, and we watch people play football. Dad, there is a central defender who is very good at long shots. Brother Dong Xiao said that they are all amateurs. It's really amazing."

The older Song Zhang was, the less he talked. It had been a long time since Song Jingwen was in such a state of pouring out to his father excitedly.

The nanny prepares the sweet soup for Jieshu, and they sit down in the restaurant together.

Song Jingwen asked his son with great interest, "Do you still know about central defenders and long shots?" In his memory, Song Zhang's school didn't seem to have football classes.Children have heavy schoolwork, and they have not deliberately developed their children's interest in this area.

Song Zhang said: "Brother Dong Xiao will explain it to me."

Brother Dong Xiao, brother Dong Xiao.

Of course Song Jingwen knew that Dong Xiao kept silent because he wanted to leave room for him and the child to communicate, but at this moment, his attention could not be entirely on the child.

Song Jingwen looked at Dong Xiao: "Do you like football?"

Dong Xiao nodded decisively, "I like to watch football games, but I don't often play football."

This is a handsome, healthy and energetic boy, and Song Jingwen is gay. At least now, it is difficult for him not to look at Dong Xiao with an aesthetic eye.

Song Jingwen was only silent for a moment, and immediately saw Dong Xiao saying to Song Zhang, "Let's go tomorrow."

Seeing the child nodding happily again, Song Jingwen was in a daze for a while. When his wife was still alive, Song Zhang showed a special attachment to the scene of a family of three sitting together and talking quietly, but they were both busy, so There are too few opportunities.

Right now, the scene of harmony and music from that year seems to be reappearing again, Song Jingwen coughed lightly, and squeezed out this out-of-time ridiculous association from her mind.

But he had to admit that the warmth and affinity of Dong Xiao seemed to have magical powers.

Song Zhang finished his soup and went back to his room to take a bath.

There were only two people left in the restaurant, and Song Jingwen said to Dong Xiao, "I'm sorry for you." He knew that his son was always polite and distant from strangers, and he was hard to get close to.

The corners of Dong Xiao's lips were slightly raised, and then he smiled and said, "Song Zhang is very sensible, I didn't bother too much, he just needs someone who likes him from the bottom of his heart to take him to play."

This goes a long way.

People who love children from the bottom of their hearts are naturally their parents.It's easy to do to make children happy, but Song Jingwen couldn't help but feel a little unhappy when he failed to do it and was told clearly.He was silent for a moment.

But soon, Dong Xiao's gentle voice came slowly, "Mr. Song, I don't mean anything else. Song Zhang also knows that you are very busy. He told me that if the elders didn't work hard enough, he wouldn't be where he is today." life. He adores you."

Song Jingwen felt better, she didn't say a word for a long time, then looked into Dong Xiao's eyes, "Are you comforting me?"

Dong Xiao shook his head, "No, I'm just telling the truth. You have more than you think."

Then, carefully scrutinizing his expression, as if discovering a new world, "Are you angry just now?"

Song Jingwen was at a loss for words.

Even if it was harsh, but what he said was the truth. Can he admit to the unhappiness just now?

He sat upright, posing a serious elder, and said in a deep voice: "It doesn't exist, you are right."

But Dong Xiao simply tilted his head to look at him a little closer, his eyes widened, and his face was narrow and clever, "You're lying to me, you were just angry just now."

Song Jingwen: "..."

Is the kid teasing him?It was indeed teasing him.

It's really big or small...

But...it seemed not bad, Song Jingwen's lips twitched slightly, and she smiled.
