Prey [Zhu Chaoyang x Ye Chimin]

Zhu Aibao gently closed the door, walked through the living room, and walked up to the third floor with slippers and bare feet. The big bedroom was still lit, and her mother was waiting for her father to come back.

"Baby," Ye Chimin called her daughter softly, "Do you want to drink the sugar water made by mother?"

"No mom, thank you." The baby smiled and went back to his bedroom.

The lights were still on in Zhu Jiabei's room across the street, and you could hear the crackling of the keyboard. My brother is really good, and he didn't delay in studying and playing. Zhu Aibao sighed and closed the door.

Her grades are still mediocre, and she plans to become an art student. Her father hired a professor from the Academy of Fine Arts and a famous music teacher to tutor her. She practiced very hard every day. In order not to affect the rest of her family, her father took the empty house next to her as her home. In the piano room and studio, she is a half-baked learner of painting and looks good at first glance, but she knows that she has no aura in this area, but she is just bluffing. She prefers to play the piano and sit alone in an empty room , Let your thoughts fly freely.

Yang Yan left, and there has been no news.

It's not that she has no friends, but no one can make her happy like Yang Yan. She always feels that Yang Yan is more like her brother. In fact, Zhu Jiabei treats her very well and protects her everywhere, but he is really outstanding. They could still walk hand in hand, but gradually she couldn't catch up, and she always felt guilty about it, because Mom and Dad could have had two outstanding children, but she dragged her back.

They are twins, whether at school or at home, or out to socialize, whenever other people's eyes shift from the outstanding Zhu Jiabei to her, there will be unconcealable pity, which makes her more and more unbearable, as if she can I heard them saying, "With such a powerful brother, how could she..."

Mom and Dad love her very much, she shouldn't complain, it's just that she sucks.

Only Yang Yan, he looked at her differently, in his mind he was better than anyone else, the best girl.

There was already hot water in the bathroom, and there was the bottle of Chanel No. [-] next to it. My mother was always so considerate. She put a drop of perfume in the water, and then submerged her whole body in the warm water. Relieved, she raised her hands in front of her eyes, her fingers were not slender enough, not like her mother but like her father, her brother's hands were like her mother's, and he passed the tenth grade without much practice on the piano.

Last weekend, I went to the food department store with my classmates. There was a beautiful Steinway piano in the atrium. My classmates urged her to play one. There it was played.

The deputy squad leader has been taken over by her brother. By the way, she is now the squad leader, and her brother is the team leader, who is still one level higher than her.

Dad said that everyone will find something they like to do, what is their favorite thing to do?She closed her eyes, if Yang Yan was here, maybe he could give her advice.

She heard footsteps going upstairs, and knew that it was her father who came back. The footsteps stopped at the door of her and Beibei, and then returned to the big bedroom.

"The baby just came back?" Zhu Chaoyang asked his wife.

"Yeah, I go there after finishing my homework every day." Ye Chimin took her husband's suit and hung it up. "This kid works too hard."

Zhu Chaoyang heard a strange cry from his son's bedroom, pursed his lips and thought for a while, "These two children are completely different, how did you have them?"

"Then which one do you like?" Ye Chimin asked mischievously.

"I like all of them, they are all my children." Zhu Chaoyang put his phone on the bedside and put his arms around his wife, "I like this one the most."

"Honestly, have you considered what the baby will do in the future?" Ye Chimin let him hold her softly, her eyes seemed to see a faraway place, "Baby's teacher said that she...has average talent."

"It doesn't matter, no matter how much a girl studies, she still has to marry." Zhu Chaoyang didn't care.

"That's not the case." Ye Chimin sat up, his expression became very serious, "I used to think that studying well was everything, but now I understand that learning is a means not an end, and what we use after entering society is not the knowledge from books , learning is to cultivate people's self-confidence."

Zhu Chaoyang frowned. His wife usually obeyed him, but today she had her own thoughts, which was very novel. He looked at his wife's slightly flushed face with interest, and thought about kissing her later. where.

"For example, your family environment was very bad at the time, but you were good at studying, so you were very confident. You didn't go with the classmates you didn't like, which was a manifestation of confidence. I was the opposite. I started to regress when I was in high school. Then I felt that I couldn’t do anything, and ended up in the current situation of raising children at home.”

The more Zhu Chaoyang listened, the more strange he became, "What kind of logic is this? If you can also be admitted to Tsinghua University, you don't plan to go home and take care of the child? Who cares about the child?"

"And his grandma," Ye Chimin raised his eyebrows, "No, that's not what I'm talking about, I'm talking about the baby, I think she should find something suitable for her to do, otherwise it will affect her mental health."

"My mental health has been affected," Zhu Chaoyang said. "Aren't you willing to take care of the children at home, is it because of the situation?"

"If there is a better choice..." Ye Chimin choked, but continued firmly, "Who wants to take care of the children at home, do you want your daughter to be a full-time wife?"

Zhu Chaoyang's complexion gradually sank, he didn't answer, he just stared at her with that strange look, Ye Chimin wanted to explain, but today she had a pain in her waist from sitting for too long, tomorrow she will get up early to bake loose bread, There was also an appointment for yoga at 08:30, and it was already eleven o'clock, she spread the quilt and got in, ignoring Zhu Chaoyang.

"What better choice do you have?" Zhu Chaoyang's voice was particularly harsh in the darkness, "Ye Chimin, you finally regret it, don't you?" He lifted the quilt roughly, grabbed her hair and forced her to turn around Face turned, ignoring her soft pleading that there are children next door who will hear them, and asked in a low voice, "Ye Chimin, answer me!"

"What do you want me to say?" Ye Chimin blushed and asked back, "I'm clearly talking about the child, you have to mess around. We have regretted it after more than ten years. Is it meaningful to say these things?"

"It makes sense," Zhu Chaoyang seemed to have a needle in his eyes, "I thought you were willing to let go of everything and follow me, so you have no choice?"

"I don't have a choice!" Ye Chimin couldn't help crying, "I haven't had a choice since I met you! I've done what I want until now, you can do it! You can spare me!" After speaking, he bit his lip and cried softly.

Seeing her crying, Zhu Chaoyang's mind buzzed, wondering what was wrong with him, how could he say such things to her, why did he make her cry again, he felt even more ashamed when he heard little feet slipping to the door in the corridor, he Putting his arms around his wife's thin back, he comforted him softly, "I didn't know why just now...don't take it to heart."

Ye Chimin cried and threw away his arm, but was hugged even tighter.

"I know you don't mean that, we are both angry." He went to kiss her ear, her most sensitive part, she avoided it, and he kissed again, hot breath hit her ear, "Are you worried about the baby?" You can't meet a man as good as me, right? Are you afraid that she won't have her own career and have no right to speak at home?"

Ye Chimin ignored him, but the crying was much quieter.

"Then pick and choose carefully. From now on, I will look for good ones among the students." "How old are you?" Ye Chimin's voice was crying.

"Take your time, observe more, and you will always find something good." He scraped away the tears on her face with his fingers, "Stop crying? It's good, your son is eavesdropping outside."

Ye Chimin immediately stopped sobbing and raised his ears, "Go back to sleep! I'll beat you if you don't wake up tomorrow!" Zhu Chaoyang raised his voice, and then went back to his room with little feet rustling, and closed the door again.

Ye Chimin rolled his eyes at him, and got under the quilt angrily.

"Don't be angry." The voice behind him was not as gentle as his.

"I really didn't expect that you were the one who asked me if I regret it." She sniffled.

Yang Rui didn't ask this question before he left. Zhu Chaoyang understood the kindness of this person, because he was too kind, so he was always worried about Ye Jun's death, and because he was too kind, he couldn't say too much about Ye Chimin ,

And he was never a kind person.

"I'm sorry." Ye Chimin heard him whisper to himself.

Zhu Chaoyang never said sorry, he made mistakes but never apologized, no matter how sad she was crying, she would just say okay, don't cry, I don't know how to coax girls.

I promised her before and forgot...

I did everything wrong from the beginning, but I had no choice, he said to himself in his heart, I don't regret doing those things, I only regret not being nice to you.

She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her fingertips, turned around, and was hugged by him, including the quilt, tightly.

"Xiao Min, promise me one thing."

"What's the matter?" She thought it was to tell her not to mention it or think about it again, but what he said was: "When we get old, can you let me go first?"

Tears welled up in her eyes again, and she choked up and nodded.

It was the first time for the two children to witness their parents quarreling. Although they reconciled quickly, it was an unprecedented experience after all. The whole night was very frightening. The next morning, the two adults acted as if nothing had happened, and the two children ate quietly. After breakfast, I drank milk, ate fruit, brushed my teeth, and went to school with my schoolbag on my back.

Junior high school is divided into classes, Zhu Jiabei is still in Class [-], and the baby is in Class [-]. Many people don't even know that they are twins. The two children are not alike except for inheriting their father's eyes. Xueba, one is always swaying in the middle.

Early self-study issued monthly exam papers. Zhu Jiabei scored full marks in Mathematics and English, only two points were missing in Chinese. He glanced at the seat next to him. Liu Beibei was looking at the exam papers. He must be brought back quickly.

"Oh, English is so simple this time, you can be wrong... The teacher has taught these two big math problems [-] times, you are a fish! You can't remember this... .”

He was not like this usually, but today he was in a bad mood, so he especially wanted to run on someone, and wanted to see her blushing with anger, but Liu Beibei didn't respond, and instead lay down on the table and cried.

"Crying now? Didn't I say anything?" His voice became smaller and smaller, and the condemning eyes around him finally made him shut up. Zhu Jiabei's life was extremely boring this day. He knew everything the teacher said, and there was no one there. You can bicker for fun.

When the music sounded after school, he found that Liu Beibei's eyes were still swollen, "You can't, have you been crying all day?"

Liu Beibei ignored him, picked up her schoolbag and left.Zhu Jiabei followed behind her hesitantly, "Girls, go home and wash your clothes and cook. There is a natural IQ gap between men and women."

The boy next to him let out a merry-go-round laugh.

Liu Beibei turned around suddenly and said angrily, "Wait!"

What am I waiting for, you bread crab... He watched the girl's back gradually go away, kicked it boredly, and a small stone rolled away.

The speaking class was temporarily canceled today, so he has nothing to do right away. He has finished his homework at school, so why not go home and play games?Playing games so early, grandma sees and nags again, the baby has piano lessons today, why don't you go to attend?It’s been a while since I haven’t touched the piano. I’m thinking about it. Just as he was about to walk home, a familiar voice came from beside him, “Beibei!”

Zhu Jiabei's eyes lit up, "Father!"

"Go, Dad will take you to swim." Zhu Chaoyang held up a sports bag, and Zhu Jiabei let out a cheer.

Zhu Chaoyang saw the young man happily open the car door, and sat in the co-pilot as a matter of course, as if this position belonged to him as a matter of course, and he felt a different feeling in his heart.

If all children were so happy, there would be no dark corners in this world.

There was a Cantonese song in the car, a thousand rivers and a thousand mountains are always love, Zhu Jiabei pouted, "Dad likes to listen to old songs."

Zhu Chaoyang smiled and changed to Jay Chou.

Dad is so understanding, Zhu Jiabei thought to himself, seeing that his father was in a good mood, he boldly asked if you had a fight with your mother last night.

Zhu Chaoyang doesn't like lying to children. He thinks that children know more than adults think. Lying is not only useless but also destroys children's trust in their parents, so he frankly admits it is.

Zhu Jiabei didn't expect his father to be so frank, "Then, can you two stop arguing in the future?"

"Not in the future." Zhu Chaoyang nodded. At this time, there was a serious traffic jam during rush hour, and there was a sea of ​​red lights ahead. He took the lunch box from the back seat and handed it to Beibei, which contained meat muffins baked by Ye Chimin.

"Mom is so kind." Zhu Jiabei took a bite. At his age, he already understood a lot. Not every family is as happy and harmonious as his own. Not every pair of parents loves each other. Every mother can make snacks. I always swim with my son. He is lucky to have these, so he is afraid of losing.

"Why doesn't mom like swimming? Is it because the baby is afraid of water?" Zhu Jiabei bit half a cake in his mouth, his eyes sparkled with curiosity.

Zhu Chaoyang's eyes dimmed, "Your mother used to swim, but after grandpa passed away, she stopped swimming."

"Oh," Beibei was satisfied when she got the answer, "Dad, you and Mom are classmates in middle school, right? I've seen your graduation photos."

Zhu Chaoyang hummed, the red light in front gradually turned off, and the car started slowly.

"Tell me the story of your mother and I," he said, "We were classmates in junior high and high school. We started dating in freshman year. She was very beautiful.... When girls are young and beautiful, the temptation they face is you. unbelievable."

Zhu Jiabei nodded in agreement, half understanding.

"Money, honor and status can be obtained through hard work, but your mother can't meet them." Zhu Chaoyang said,

"She is the greatest achievement of my life."

Zhu Jiabei was silent for a while, and reached out to cut back the old song just now.He didn't know which part of his father's life this song represented, but he just felt that his father should really want to listen to it now.

"I'm not afraid that the strong wind will blow away my love,"

"Love and passion."

The 15th birthday is very important. The baby’s gift is a set of LV dressing cabinets. Beibei got the drone and went to the park with her classmates to test the flight. The baby hugged mom and dad to express her gratitude, and then went back to her Barbie doll room Same bedroom.

She was like a Barbie doll, she was only responsible for being obedient and obedient. She put the gift she received aside and was about to unpack it. Zhou Chunhong walked in with the trembling grandma supported.

"Why are you here?" The baby hurriedly helped the old woman sit down, "Call me if there is anything to do, and I can hear you."

The grandma shook her hands, "Grandma hasn't been to the baby's room yet, come to see what it looks like today." She looked around, "It's so beautiful, it's a little princess's house." Then she asked the baby, "This is the painting you drew son?"

The baby nodded. She saw that the grandmother was in a particularly good state of mind today, and her complexion was better than usual. She thought that the medicine must have taken effect this time. "Grandma, it's too late today. I'll help you to listen to me playing the piano tomorrow, okay?"

The grandma smiled and nodded, Zhou Chunhong turned her face away, the baby felt strange, the grandma couldn't go to the ground for several days, but today she was able to climb a flight of stairs, why did grandma seem unhappy?

The old horse downstairs called Chunhong, she answered in a hoarse voice and went downstairs, the grandma put a red satin bag in the baby's hand, "This is for the baby's dowry in the future, don't forget the grandma in the future, baby."

"Baby will never forget, I will never forget!" The baby held the heavy small bag, knowing that it must be very valuable, and she should not accept it, but the grandma decided to accept it temporarily, and ask tomorrow Grandma will talk again.

"Your brother also has one," the old woman gasped heavily, and drank her saliva, "I can't see your brother marrying a wife...I never thought I would have two great-grandchildren, call me grandma... ..." As he spoke, tears welled up in his dry eye sockets.

The old horse has a good gun but no bullets. It is because of this that his ex-wife divorced. The old horse has been hiding it from his wife, but the old lady is not confused. She has accepted her fate after so many years. She is a lovely child. There is Chaoyang who is not a grandson but is more filial than a grandson, and a good wife like Zhou Chunhong. She is an old woman who travels from the countryside to the city and then to the provincial capital. She lives in a big villa in a car. This is accumulated in her previous life What a blessing.

"Baby must marry a good man in the future, and treat you well." The grandma stroked the baby's soft hair, remembering that this little thing spoke foreign language when she first returned to China, calling grandma with a foreign flavor, and she was partial to "grandmother" The words were called with a perfect accent, and she felt at that time that she could live another ten years!

After ten years, it's time to go, let the children rest.

"Grandmother, do you still remember that little brother?" The baby asked in a low voice with a blushing face.

"Remember, it's called...Yang Yan, isn't it?" The grandmother also lowered her voice.

The baby lowered his head in embarrassment.

"That's a good boy."

The baby became even more ashamed. Until Zhou Chunhong came back and helped the grandma back to the second floor, she didn't know that that would be the last words the grandma said to her.

The mother-in-law left a will to divide the demolition funds into two, leaving half to her daughter and grandson, and half to Baobao and Beibei. Lao Ma fully agreed, saying that it should be, anyway, sooner or later it will belong to these two children.

Lao Ma's elder sister originally had some ideas, that's how people are, and it's natural for siblings to be divided equally, and she immediately felt unbalanced if she gave it to outsiders, but at the funeral, she saw the baby crying and throwing herself in the arms of her grandma, saying that I don't want a dowry, only my mother-in-law. I was moved, and saw my older brother who was over fifty years old after a major operation and was still rosy and well-dressed, so I had nothing to say.

A week later, the baby sat in front of the desk with red eyes, and a friend request popped up on the QQ bar of the computer. She never added strangers, but this guy was very persistent and added her for a month in a row.

She read the profile of that person, it was a small city in a neighboring province, suddenly her heart moved, she immediately clicked through, her heart started beating violently.

A sentence popped up over there almost at the same time: I finally found you!

Who are you?The baby trembled and typed three words.

I am Yang Yan!There are a few photos over there, it's him, dark and thin, his facial features have opened up a lot, but the original outline can still be seen, his eyes are bright.

Yang Yan?She put on her earphones and started choking up as soon as she called out his name.

Yang Yan panicked: Don't cry, what happened?

The grandma is gone, the baby is crying out of breath facing the computer, the grandma still remembers you.

"Liu Beibei, let me tell you the story of the breaded crab." On the rooftop, Zhu Jiabei was lazily dangling her long legs. She was on duty today. To apologize, he accompanied her to clean the sharing area. Both of them were exhausted. Khan, Zhu Jiabei treated guests to ice cream, and the two came to the top of the roof to blow the night breeze. In front of them was an empty playground. The teachers went to training, and the whole campus was very quiet.

The girl stared, "You are not allowed to say any more!"

"I'm not talking about you," Zhu Jiabei sat up, "what about the bread crab, it looks like bread,...Don't make trouble! When the male bread crab grows up, he will marry a female bread crab. Who will he marry? Entered kindergarten."

"Nonsense!" Liu Beibei scolded, but she was still very curious.

"Really," Zhu Jiabei looked serious, "When he found a little sister, he hugged her to prevent her from running away, and then waited and waited until she grew up, taking her wherever she went."

"What happened later?" Seeing that he stopped talking, Liu Beibei couldn't help asking.

"I got married later," Zhu Jiabei said, his expression was a little strange under the sunset at dusk, "The essence of this story is that each other is the first of the other."

"Go, go!" Liu Beibei blushed.

An awkward silence surrounded the two of them, and after a while, Zhu Jiabei suddenly asked her to close her eyes.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?" She closed her eyes obediently, and felt her lips touched by something soft. Before she could realize what it was, she opened her eyes, facing Zhu Jiabei's approaching Mao Dudu's big eyes are close at hand,

She let out a cry of fright, her body bounced up instinctively, the result was predictable, she was kissed by him again, and this time it was delivered to her door by herself.

hateful!She stretched out her hand to push him away, and at this moment a strange laugh came from beside her, "Zhu Jiabei and Liu Beibei are kissing!"
