one step away [Interstellar]

99.

This is not the first time Heber heard this sentence from Xia Zuo.Whether on or off the bed, she had heard Xia Zuo say similar words many times.Every time is so gentle and full of affection.

But this was the first time that she heard anxiety and panic in Xia Zuo's words.For some unknown reason, she wanted to raise her head to see Xia Zuo's expression.But the moment he raised his head, his eyes were covered by a warm hand. Alpha's hand blocked her view, and her soft words fell into her ear, "Of course...you don't have to answer now. When I can really come back, I will ask you for an answer."

She was as considerate as ever, but in this thoughtfulness, Heber felt a little uneasiness.She didn't understand how Xia Zuo's emotions came about, because she was always calm in front of her, and even when she was pursuing her, she maintained the composure and generosity of a victorious general.

She is a gentleman, steady, considerate and gentle, and every step she takes is unhurried, which makes me feel very comfortable.But now, something has obviously disturbed her, so even her mood fluctuates a bit.Heber felt the trace of uneasiness in her body, as well as the vague anxiety.

Heber carefully thought about her every reaction after she came back, as well as those subtle movements.Because of the joy of reunion, Xia Zuo calmed down in Xia Zuo's obviously fluctuating state of mind.So she reached out and clasped Xia Zuo's hand covering her eyes.Between the ten fingers interlocking, the ring clasped on He Bai's middle finger clicked on Xia Zuo's finger.

Xia Zuo felt a bit of pain from the slightly cool temperature and the hard texture. She lowered her head and finally looked at the ring on Heber's hand.Last night, Xia Zuo, who only thought Heber had an extra ring on his hand, didn't pay much attention to the tactile sensation on his finger.Only at this moment, did she seriously look at this ring that Heber had never shown in her eyes.

Thus, Xia Zuo's excellent memory gave her a surprise.

"You... put it on..." There was no question in her tone, only uncontrollable joy.Yes, this is the wedding ring that Xia Zuo chose for them many years ago.Hebe has been with Hebe since the day they got married.

She gave Heber the pair of rings as a gift, never thinking that she would wear the rings on her hands.She looked at the ring on Heber's finger and didn't know what to say for a moment.She watched as Heber clasped her hand tighter and tighter, and it took a while to hear Heber said sullenly, "It's very suitable, isn't it?"

Just like you, it fits me well, doesn't it?

"Ah, yes."

Heber didn't know if she could understand what he meant, but when Xia Zuo smiled lightly and said yes, she felt something fell down.The heart that was floating in the sea has settled down like this.

Everyone is an unknown deep sea. Even if all the deeds of her life are rubbed into a thick book, you still cannot know everything she did and every word she said at that time. motivation, and meaning.

And emotion is the most complex and changeable emotion in a person's life, and love is the most important among them.She is like the most beautiful and expensive gemstones, some of which look extremely beautiful, but are extremely fragile.But there are some, dazzling and bright, but more expensive than any other substance in the world.

Those precious gems can be bought and treasured by her and kept forever.But love is not, it not only belongs to oneself, when she is in love, she also belongs to another person.

Yes, if she is the only one who loves Xia Zuo, then she can keep this love at will, because it belongs to herself.

But Xia Zuo loved her, which was originally a very beautiful thing.

Isn't it nice to be loved by someone you like?Why refuse?Because the response will be expected, and the expectation will be hurt.

Xia Zuo is an alpha, an alpha who is considered to be at the top both physically and socially, and to him, he is the most dangerous type of person.But from beginning to end, Heber did not refuse her approach.

Yes, going to bed can be said to be what everyone wants, the child is just an accident, and the relationship between lovers is just because they happen to be single.But returning to San Alonso for Xia Zuo was the beginning of her honesty.

To this day, she can still choose to avoid talking about this issue.It's just cohabitation. It's not impossible for the child's growth.Even if there is another marriage between them, it can also be explained as a child.

What a good excuse, never tired of it.

If they are just a pure alpha and omega relationship, if Xia Zuo doesn't love her and has no one to love, she doesn't mind continuing with Xia Zuo like this.

But not now, Xia Zuo loves her, obeys because of love, respects because of love, she can't be unfair to Xia Zuo.

She has been able to accept an alpha by her side, they have sex, they kiss, and they have two kids, everything that any normal couple would go through, why continue to be cowardly?

Maybe she should be less selfish, maybe she should be more brave, maybe she should completely accept the expectation of Xia Zuo from the bottom of her heart.

She couldn't find an excuse to lie to herself anymore, since the day Xia Zuo left Haisong, she has been missing her embrace.Such extravagant sensibility should not have appeared on her, because being rational and selfish can avoid many unnecessary troubles and injuries.

But since she appeared in front of him, why didn't she fight for it?

Is it alpha, will it face more dangers, is it really that important sometimes?

She didn't want to think about Xia Zuo's gender anymore, nor did she want to think about their identities.

She always needs to think about so many things, and needs to be considerate in every way, but after so many ups and downs in the mall, there are many decisions that are not within the safe range of her choice.

Yes, being with Xia Zuo is very risky, but what comes with it is as precious as what she can win.

If she is lucky, she can get love like many ordinary people, have a person who loves her very much, and have a very happy family.If it's unfortunate, it's nothing more than a failed relationship.

In this process, what needs to be handed over is my own feelings, and the sincerity that I don't know if I can bear it.

In love, there is no more sincere way except exchanging sincerity for sincerity.

But Xia Zuo is the same.She is not just giving, she is also expecting.Just restraining that urgent and heavy expectation to a reassuring point, she was also tormented.

Love is really a toss of happiness.

She could no longer pretend to be on the sidelines, unable to see her loss and sadness, which was wrong.She couldn't bear it, she couldn't bear to reject her, to hurt her.

Therefore, she chose the most suitable way to respond.

She doesn't know how long Xia Zuo will like her, and she won't guess. She only knows that if Xia Zuo still needs her response, she will answer one by one.

She didn't want to reject her any more, to reject a person she clearly longed for.

She is willing to wait for Xia Zuo, no matter when she comes, and is willing to accompany her no matter when she leaves.

She loves Xia Zuo, there is no doubt about it.

So she obeyed the wish in her heart, and put her whole body into Xia Zuo's arms, just like every time Xia Zuo got into her arms in the past, she approached this embrace that now belonged to her with peace of mind.

"Wake me up at two o'clock." She closed her eyes and said softly to Xia Zuo.

"En." Xia Zuo responded, leaned over and kissed her lightly on the forehead, and said in a low voice, "Go to sleep."

The moment Heber approached, Xia Zuo knew that he had received a response again.

The several times of tossing and tossing in less than a day after the reunion made Heber a little overwhelmed.Before the meeting started, Xia Zuo sent her to the studio.No matter what the occasion, the person who always sits upright and serious is rarely lazy, leaning on the back of the chair and distracted.The waist is very sore, after the great joy, it is the pain of burden.

Feeling the pain from his waist, Heber decided that if Xia Zuo continued tonight, he must use another method.

Even Heber, who had caught up on sleep afterwards, fell asleep on the way home because of being too sleepy after the afternoon meeting.Xia Zuo, who picked her up, carried her back from the car, took off her high heels, and went all the way back to the bedroom.

Gently put her into the bed, and then said comfortingly, "You fall asleep first, I will fetch the child back, and I will wake you up for dinner."

"En." Heber nodded, buried himself in the bed very sleepily, and replied softly, "Go."

She is clearly the mother of two children, but she is cuter than any other girl. Xia Zuo couldn't help but bowed his head, held her face and kissed her again and again.Hebe avoided her, couldn't struggle, so he obediently hooked her neck to respond to the kiss.

"Wait for me." Someone who was finally willing to let go winked at Heber and said gently.

"Yeah." He Bo responded to her in multiple voices, fearing that she would come again, he quickly buried his whole body in the bed, urging sullenly, "Hurry up and pick up the child, or you won't be able to catch up."

"Okay." Xia Zuo replied, and went out obediently.The sound of closing the door sounded behind him, and He Bo, who was hugging the quilt, turned over on the bed and rolled to the place where Xia Zuo lay today.

It is sweet and belongs to its own alpha flavor.She smelled Xia Zuo's lingering scent, and thinking about what happened just now, she couldn't help turning over again.Inexplicably, a hint of joyful thought came to my mind.

They are probably... dating now.

She has never liked anyone, and has no experience in dating anyone, even though she ended up married twice and had two children.Xia Zuo was the first one, who made her feel sweet, but also troubled constantly.

But it will be the last one.

This is just the beginning, Heber told himself, holding the quilt tightly, encouraging himself to fight for something she didn't have to fight for.

When Xia Zuo came to the gate of the children's school by car, it was just after school.After Rum, who was driving the car, told her, he stopped the car and went to the place where he had been waiting for the children.The twins, who were already familiar with each other, followed the teachers to the school gate after school, and found Rum who picked them up.Under the leadership of the other party, the children said goodbye to the teacher and walked straight to the car.

So the moment the car door was opened, the children who had maintained the appearance of well-behaved ladies almost screamed regardless of their appearance.Xia Zuo put his index finger to his lips, motioning for them to keep silent, so the happy children quickly climbed into the car, and when the door was closed, they rushed towards Xia Zuo regardless of his appearance.

"Charles! Did your mother ask you to come?" Li Qi, who was the first to throw herself into Xia Zuo's arms, said happily, with a look of surprise on her face.

"Didn't I say that I would come to pick you up?" She adjusted her posture, hugged the children in her arms from left to right, and said to them, "By the way, there is this."

She took the things from the empty seat in the front seat and handed them to the children. As expected, she received a surprise call.

"Ah! It's a small cake from Uncle Ren's Cake House! Thank you Charles!" Li Qi hugged the cake box and kissed Xia Zuo violently.Cheno, who couldn't wait to open the box and eat the cake, only dealt with the things in his hand, said vaguely, "Thank you Charles!" and then ate happily.

Xia Zuo, who felt that she was not as important as food, was a little sad. With a mournful face on purpose, she looked sadly at the cheerful Chenuo, and said, "Qie Nuo didn't give me a kiss, which made me feel very hurt."

"..." Qian Nuo, who was eating happily, looked up at her, approached Xia Zuo with some hesitation, kissed her, and said, "Okay, kiss."

Compared with the enthusiastic and generous Li Qi, Cheno can be said to be too shy.In a certain way, Cheno's temper was very much like Heber's.Xia Zuo reached out to touch their little cheeks, and said dotingly, "But only this time, if you eat too much sweets before dinner, you won't be able to eat, and if you can't eat, mom will worry about you, understand? "

"Uh-huh."

Looking at the well-behaved daughters, Xia Zuo thought to himself, if he sees those little things later, he might have to eat more for dinner if there is going to be a fuss.
