Excessive exposure

Zhang Yi finally agreed to help Tang Yun connect with the Tong family.

Zhou Bingwen also had to go to the company to discuss related matters in detail.However, he is about to go to the UK, and only participates in the preliminary planning of the early stage, and is not responsible for any project.

Tang Yun was naturally very happy. In recent years, he has been in the business world like a fish in water, and everyone has a springy smile when he sees it, especially when facing Zhou Bingwen.He really likes this stepson. Although it is a pity not to have his own child in this life, Zhou Bingwen's excellence is enough to make up for this lack.

After lunch with Zhang Yi and Tong Qixue, Tang Yun personally drove him back to the company.

All his excitement along the way was palpable.

"Wenwen, you have done a great job this time, do you want any rewards?" Tang Yun's eyebrows were all stretched out, and anyone who saw his expression knew that he was in a good mood.

Zhou Bingwen smiled: "No need, we are all family."

Tang Yun pretended to be angry and said: "A family belongs to a family. You have helped Dad so much, so I must give you a big gift!"

"Dad, I really don't need it." Zhou Bingwen had already sincerely treated Tang Yun as his father, and he was sincere in promoting the cooperation with Tong's family, and he didn't want anything.Besides, Tang Yun has been treating him better and better over the years. Almost anything he wants, he finds someone to deliver it to him immediately, and he is such a busy person, he will take time out every month to care about him.

"You always don't want this or that, I think you're disgusting me as a father." Tang Yun said pretending to be sad.

Zhou Bingwen was amused by him, and suddenly saw a picture outside the car window.

There is a man and a woman with two children on the street. It should be a family of four. They look warm and intimate. The young man is holding a beautiful little girl in his arms, and the young woman is holding a bouncing little boy in his hand. They are intimate Said something, smiled happily, and looked very happy.

Tang Yun turned her head to look at him, and asked suspiciously, "Huh? What's the matter, you suddenly stopped talking?"

Zhou Bingwen thought for a while, pondered for a moment, and said, "If I really make a request, Dad, will you satisfy me?"

Tang Yun was high-spirited, and said proudly: "Within my ability, as long as you say it, Dad will agree to you."

Zhou Bingwen said: "It's definitely within your ability, and it's not difficult. You must agree!"

Tang Yun raised her chin indifferently, especially with a heroic demeanor: "Just tell me, Dad promises you." In his mind, he only thought that Zhou Bingwen wanted to buy some expensive things, or some plans that were not very pleasing to adults. As long as it is not too much, he will still try to satisfy him.

Zhou Bingwen said: "Then you and mother will give me a younger brother and younger sister."

Tang Yun almost stepped on the brakes and caused a series of rear-end collisions. After he looked at the car in fear, he saw the driver behind him sticking his head out and yelling.

There was a burst of cold sweat on his forehead, but fortunately his mental quality was strong enough, and he quickly recovered. He asked incredulously, "What did you just say?"

"I said... you and my mother will give me a younger brother and younger sister. Well, if possible, I can have two." Zhou Bingwen was also taken aback by him, but he still expressed his inner thoughts.

The joy on Tang Yun's face faded completely, and now it was replaced by surprise: "Wait, how did you come up with this idea."

"I think you and Mum will be more lonely when I go to England."

Tang Yun said disdainfully: "Do you think me and your mother will be lonely? The company is my second son."

Zhou Bingwen didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Then have you ever thought that in a few years I will be as busy as you are now, but you are gradually getting old, and I don't have much time to take care of you."

"Hey..." Tang Yun sighed, she didn't know what she was thinking, and suddenly said in a very sure tone: "What are you talking about, cursing me as an old man, you think my money is for nothing? Then hire more doctors Nurses and babysitters and the like will do.”

Zhou Bingwen thought about it, and said: "Dad, let me tell you the truth. I know that you are worried about me because you haven't had a child with your mother. In fact, I have no objection. I wanted to tell you this idea a long time ago, but At that time, when you first came to S City, your career was still unstable. But now it’s different, the company can finally operate stably, you and mom should relax, and if you add a child to the family, it will be much more lively. "

"You child, hey..." Tang Yun didn't know what to say, his stepson was too caring.It's not that he hasn't thought about it, but every time he sees Zhou Bingwen, he endures it, thinking that it would be nice to have such a one, and he doesn't want to hurt his heart, because he is afraid that he will have other ideas after having more children in the family.

"Dad, you really don't have to worry about me. I think my mother actually hopes to have another child." Zhou Bingwen smiled softly when he mentioned Wu Xuewei: "Now that technology is also advanced, you can find a surrogate to be a test-tube baby. And so on, mom doesn't have to suffer, our family can afford to raise one or two children."

Tang Yun was silent, slowly stroking the steering wheel with both hands, and a thoughtful wrinkle appeared on her brow.

Knowing that he was persuaded, Zhou Bingwen continued to analyze the benefits of having a child: "Dad, think about it, I must be very busy when I go out to work. I feel more at ease when I have younger brothers and sisters with you. When the child grows up, I will be very busy." I'm also middle-aged, and they can just help me share some of it."

Tang Yun still didn't speak, but the wrinkles on her face became tighter.

Zhou Bingwen stopped talking and let him think slowly.

After the car drove all the way back to the company, the two got out of the car, and Tang Yun said: "This matter is not trivial, I will discuss it with your mother first."

"Well, it should be." Zhou Bingwen nodded.

Tang Yun glanced at him with emotion, and suddenly thought that he originally wanted to give Zhou Bingwen a gift, but instead Zhou Bingwen gave him a big gift, and suddenly felt a sense of indebtedness.

"Father is very happy." Tang Yun patted his shoulder, feeling that his eyes were moist.

Zhou Bingwen smiled at him, but the emotion in his eyes was bleak and guilty.

Tang Yun was in a state of mixed feelings and didn't see anything strange about him.

"Dad has gone up, go and play by yourself, have fun before school starts, you don't use the secondary card that Dad gave you much."

"I see, you are busy, I will drive back."

……

In the morning, the weather was gloomy and rainy.

Zhou Bingwen woke up from his sleep with Shi Annan's arm still around his waist.He took it away lightly, and sat up quietly again.

Maybe it's something on my mind recently, even the biological clock is a little disordered, and I woke up half an hour earlier than usual.

Outside the half-drawn curtains was gray rain and mist, which made people not in a good mood. He casually put on some clothes, walked to the window, and looked at the pattering rain, feeling very melancholy.

When Shi Annan woke up, he found that there was nothing around him, so he quickly got up and looked around, and soon found that he was sitting in front of the bay window, leaning against the wall in a daze.

He walked over, took him into his arms, and said, "Why are you sitting here? It's so cold in the morning and it's still raining outside. What if you catch a cold?"

Zhou Bingwen snuggled up to him: "When I wake up, I won't be able to sleep."

"If you can't sleep, you shouldn't be sitting here." Shi Annan rubbed his arms that were frozen by the wall, and it took a while to warm up.

Zhou Bingwen snuggled into his arms, looking gloomily at the blurred scenery outside the window.

Shi Annan put a kiss on his forehead: "What happened recently, I feel that you are not very happy."

"There are some things that make people feel uncomfortable."

"What's the matter, tell me and let me share it with you."

Zhou Bingwen sighed sadly and said, "I lied to my father."

"Huh? What's going on?" Shi Annan asked suspiciously.

"I feel very despicable. I am obviously selfish, but I make him feel that I am thinking of him."

Shi Annan patted his head, and said comfortingly, "Don't say that about yourself, you have such a good relationship with him, you definitely won't have any bad intentions for him."

The two just cuddled together and watched the rain scene for a while, Shi Annan carried him off the bay window and put him on the bed: "Don't be sad, I'll make whatever you want for breakfast."

"You spoil me so much, what will I do if I become a rice worm who doesn't work hard?"

Shi Annan scratched his nose with a smile: "I am willing."

Zhou Bingwen looked at his hands and said, "You don't want my hands to be hurt and ugly."

Seeing that his tone was wrong, Shi Annan quickly comforted him: "It's true that I don't want you to do these rough jobs, but..."

But Zhou Bingwen said suddenly: "Go and cook, just get some porridge."

Shi Annan had no choice but to swallow the following words, and looked at him worriedly for a while before leaving the room.

Zhou Bingwen fell on the bed immediately after he left, looking at his hands and feet in confusion.

It was because of these hands that Shi Annan would be with him back then. If he gets old, ugly, ugly...or there will be better looking ones...

It is true that because of his superior family background, he has never done any rough work, especially since he came to S City and was raised extremely expensively.So the hands in front of me are still in good condition: slender and well-proportioned, fair and delicate, very beautiful.

Even he himself likes these hands very much, so he is extra careful when doing things.

Shi Annan chose him because of this hobby, and will he choose someone else because of this hobby.

Even after six years of trials, he returned to himself, but what about the next six years?In two or six years he should be old.

After making breakfast, Shi Annan went into the bedroom and called him. Seeing that he was still wearing pajamas, curled up lazily on the bed, he couldn't help but walked over and patted his buttocks: "Go wash up and eat."

Zhou Bingwen sat up cross-legged and buttoned his clothes slowly.

Shi Annan looked fascinated at his hands buttoning his buttons.

Zhou Bingwen quickly buckled it, stepped into the bathroom, and locked the door with his backhand.

Shi Annan was a little dazed standing where he was, not knowing where he was offending him.

……

After the two of them had breakfast, although it was raining outside, they didn't have much left at home. Last night they discussed going to the supermarket to do some shopping, so they went out in the rain.

Although the rain was a bit heavy, there were still many grandpas and aunts who came out to buy vegetables in the morning, and the supermarket was crowded and lively.

The two pushed the cart and strolled slowly in the fruit and vegetable area. While walking, Shi Annan asked him, "What do you want to eat? How about this? Stir-fried cold salad is not bad."

Zhou Bingwen lacked interest.

Shi Annan felt a big headache. On the way here by car, he asked him why he was unhappy, but he didn't get an answer.

So both of them fell silent.

I planned to make a big purchase, but when I came out of the supermarket, I didn't even fill a handbag.

Stepping on the moving walkway elevator and slowly descending to the first floor, Zhou Bingwen went to drive. After Shi Annan put his things in the trunk, he held down his hand that turned the steering wheel.

"Some things are better resolved as soon as possible." Shi Annan will pull out the car key.

Zhou Bingwen frowned slightly, but he still didn't say anything.

"You are always like this. You keep everything in your heart and don't say anything. It's not good. You feel uncomfortable, and the people around you are also sad. If there is something unpleasant, let it be said. If it is because of me, you should Say, because the last thing there should be between you and me is gaps and estrangements." Shi Annan persuaded him.

Zhou Bingwen rubbed his forehead and asked him what to say.It's really embarrassing for a big man to speak out this kind of emotion like a boudoir who is worried about gains and losses.

Do you want to say that I am afraid that you will not want me when I am old and fading?

So sad.

Shi Annan said: "Are you still angry that I haven't told you the reason for falling in love with hands?"

There is also this.Zhou Bingwen nodded.

"Is there anything else? My intuition is that it's not that simple. You should have other things to be unhappy about."

Zhou Bingwen was silent.

"Is it hard to speak?"

"Unable to speak."

Shi Annan sighed helplessly: "Okay, let's solve the first problem first and then talk about other things. Get down and I'll drive."

Zhou Bingwen got off the car and exchanged places with him, but he didn't know what his intention was.

Shi Annan was driving in the suburbs, Zhou Bingwen couldn't help asking him, "Where are you going?"

"Go to Shi's family." Shi Annan said, with some impatience in his tone.

Suddenly going to the Shi family's family, Zhou Bingwen panicked: "No, what... what are you going to do at the family?" There are all the elders of the Shi family, and maybe you will meet Shi Annan's father and mother.

Shi Annan glanced at him mockingly: "You think I'm taking you to meet your parents?"

Zhou Bingwen was ridiculed by him, his face flushed suddenly, and he was ugly.

Shi Annan said: "I'm not talking about you, I mean, even if I'm with a pig, my parents won't care about me."

The corner of Zhou Bingwen's mouth twitched, feeling like he was being scolded as a pig.

Seeing the expression on his face change several times, Shi Annan couldn't help laughing.

If it wasn't for his driving, Zhou Bingwen would have liked to beat him up.

Shi Annan said, "Are you feeling better now?"

Only when Zhou Bingwen found out that he made such a fuss did he feel a lot more relaxed.

"Okay, you'll know when you come back to my home with me." Shi Annan gently scratched his nose comfortingly, but was slapped away by him.

Zhou Bingwen asked him: "Then who else is in your family now?"

"There's no one else, everyone is busy, just like your Tang family, each lives separately." Shi Annan said lazily, "Except for a few cousins ​​and a few servants, there is nothing else."

"Ah, that's it?" Zhou Bingwen was surprised.

"Otherwise?" Shi Annan smiled sarcastically.

Shijiaben's house is a little far away from the city, and it took more than an hour to drive there due to the rainy weather.

The car stopped in front of an old villa with a relatively large area. When Zhou Bingwen went down with an umbrella, he was shocked by the ancient courtyard in front of him. He did not expect such an ancient courtyard to exist in this era, as if he had returned to early last century.

Especially in the misty rain, there is a sense of historical precipitation.

"Let's go, let's go in." Shi Anxu held his waist and led him inside.

He rang the doorbell, and soon an elderly woman ran over from the rain curtain. She saw Shi Annan standing outside the door with a frightened expression on her face, and hesitated to open the door.

Shi Annan said coldly, "Open the door."

Aunt Hu, who was equivalent to a housekeeper in the Shi family's family, pursed her lips so thin that they could not be seen, and opened the door silently.

Shi Annan walked inside without looking sideways.

Aunt Hu's mean eyes revealed annoyance: "Why did you bring a stranger to our house! It's against the rules!"

Shi Annan ignored her and pretended not to see this person.

Zhou Bingwen felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by those venomous eyes.

Shi Annan noticed his strangeness, and said expressionlessly: "I am the rule of this family, please be honest with me."

Aunt Hu stared back coldly: "The old man is leaving, are you making him feel uneasy in his last days?"

Shi Annan snorted disdainfully: "Half of your body is buried in the ground, even if you are so wide, you might as well think about what you will do after Shi Hanying's death."

Aunt Hu was shaking with anger, Shi Annan tightened Zhou Bingwen's waist, and walked quickly towards the house with a cold face.

Standing in the gray rain, Aunt Hu finally couldn't help yelling, all kinds of ugly words emerged one after another, frantically venting the long-standing dissatisfaction and resentment in her heart.

Zhou Bingwen was taken aback by her sharp scolding, and couldn't help but look back at the skinny figure in the rain.

"Don't look at her, the more you look at her, the more excited you become."

Zhou Bingwen couldn't help asking: "Who is she?"

"A crazy woman."

"How dare she scold you like that?" Zhou Bingwen asked cautiously seeing his ugly face.

Shi Annan took a deep look at him, and then said very seriously: "Talk while going upstairs."

"Oh fine."

"She came to Shi's family as a servant when she was very young. At that time, she was still pretty, so she went to Shi Hanying's bed. But Shi Hanying has never been short of people, and she will be gone soon. But this woman is very I will try to figure out Shi Hanying's thoughts and try my best to please him, so the two have been disconnected, and gradually gained some power. My grandma divorced Shi Hanying very early, so in this family, that woman has always regarded herself as the hostess Live on your own."

"That's it..."

"The men and women around Shi Hanying came and went in a hurry and changed frequently. The woman felt that she could stay by Shi Hanying's side all the time, thinking that she was very special in Shi Hanying's heart, and her temper became more and more violent. But when she got old, Shi Hanying never Don't touch her anymore. She is surrounded by handsome men and beautiful women. As she gets older, her temper becomes more and more weird. She bosses and bosses everyone in the Shi family without mercy. However, Shi Hanying never restrains her and allows her to act like a tiger at home. It's a mess."

Zhou Bingwen was dumbfounded when he heard that, he didn't expect the Patriarch of the Shi family to be so weird that he allowed a servant to be so disrespectful to his family.

But he suddenly thought: "Then did she treat you..."

At this time, the two had just walked upstairs, Shi Annan pushed open a room and said, "This is my room."

Zhou Bingwen walked in, looked at the messy room, and couldn't believe it belonged to Shi Annan, after all, he has a cleanliness habit.

Then he heard Shi Annan say behind him: "Now that she has any dissatisfaction with me, she only dares to vent in my room. When I was young, I was often beaten and scolded by her, and because of her jealousy, I went crazy and choked my neck."

Zhou Bingwen looked at him in shock, he did not expect that as the heir of the Shi family, he would have such a past.

"When I first entered my family when I was a child, she was very moody, and then my parents never looked at me. She became bolder and tortured me even harder behind Shi Hanying's back. She didn't give me food, pinched me, beat me Me, threatening me, and making small reports to Shi Hanying for a long time..." Shi Annan became more and more irritable as he spoke.

Zhou Bingwen hurriedly hugged him: "I'm sorry for reminding you of these things."

"Actually, I don't plan to tell anyone about these things, but you are different..." Shi Annan pulled him out of the room: "It's okay, I got revenge later when I grew up."

"When I go back to my home, I usually say hello in advance, and she will quickly tidy up my room, but I came back suddenly without calling a few times, and found that the room was dirty, Shi Hanying punished her several times. Now her There are many old wounds, which were caused by Shi Hanying's punishment, but she thought that she was different in Shi Hanying's heart."

"Na Shi...then why did your grandfather not like her and let her dominate Shi's family?" Zhou Bingwen asked.

"Of course, the more violent everyone is, the happier he is." Shi Annan led him through the two corridors, and then stopped in front of an antique round arch.

Zhou Bingwen suddenly saw that this place still has a sense of time travel, no matter who comes here suddenly from a modern room, there will be a sense of error.

"where is this place?"

"Yuyuan, where I grew up."
