why are they still in love

After the conflict, Xiao Chining really lost track of Xiao Zhaoshan for five full days.The latter obviously didn't go on a business trip, but he didn't come home for some reason.

On the afternoon of the first day, there was a knock on the door of the house, and he excitedly went to open the door, but there was only a courier boy wearing a battery car helmet standing at the door.

The skateboard that Xiao Zhaoshan bought for him arrived.

The next day, the police sent the hair test results.is negative.His suspicion of drug use was completely cleared.

But he was not very happy. He woke up in the empty house, woke up and slept again, and spent a day that was not any different from the past.

On the third day, he went to the vegetable market opposite the community to order a hen, and stewed a large pot of yam and chicken soup with great enthusiasm.

At eleven o'clock that night, he put the whole pot of chicken soup, which he drank only a few sips, in a garbage bag and threw it into the garbage can downstairs.

On the fourth day, he stayed upstairs in Xiao Zhaoshan's studio all afternoon, kicked his nanmu chair and easel to the ground, smashed his brushes against the wall, tore his drafts from the album and crumpled them into pieces. Group, thrown all over the house.

Then it took another overnight to put them back in place and restore them.

At eight o'clock in the morning of the fifth day, he received a call from the class teacher in his sleep asking if he would take the college entrance examination.He didn't answer, hung up the phone and slept for twelve hours.

In the evening, he took his new skateboard and went out to brush the streets, and unexpectedly discovered Xiao Zhaoshan's good vision in this regard.

After being with the wind for a long time, he somewhat forgot the time. It was not until early in the morning that he was exhausted, the lights were dim and he could not see the way ahead, and the sound of the pulleys seemed creepy on the silent street.

Except for the patrolling security guards, there were no other residents walking around in the community. He entered the building with a skateboard and suddenly felt like a security guard.A security guard guarding an empty room of [-] square meters.

With that in mind, he got on the elevator.

However, when he was standing at the door of the house, before he took out the key, he heard a woman's high-pitched voice coming from the house.

"You never interfered with my work before!"

Chi Yan is back from a business trip, Xiao Chining thought.

He put away the keys, took a step forward, leaned his forehead against the anti-theft door, and listened carefully to what she said behind her.

"It's been 20 years. We've been together for more than 20 years. We haven't had any quarrels or blushed. What the hell have you run into these days?"

"I don't blush with you now, I'm just stating the facts - you never cared about me or this family."

It wasn't until the moment Xiao Zhaoshan's voice appeared that Xiao Chining outside the door was willing to admit that he actually missed him very much.Thinking that even though he came back at the same time as Chi Yan, he felt that his heart, which had been drifting for five days, fell back to reality.

"I don't care about you? I don't care about this family?" Chi Yan seemed to laugh angrily, and asked repeatedly, "Did I bring outsiders home to spend the night like you? Like you, not only sleeping with people, but also Do you talk about love with others? Why do you play with your man, busying with your career is called 'for this family', and I'm busy with my career is called selfish? Xiao Zhaoshan, can you show some face? "

"Didn't you know that I was like this when we were in college, why, do you feel disgusted now?" Xiao Zhaoshan sounded unexpectedly calm, "Chi Yan, I hope you make it clear that I am not discussing with you How to have fun, I am discussing with you the possibility of us living together."

Chi Yan couldn't believe it: "Xiao Zhaoshan, we are husband and wife, husband and wife! Husband and wife actually have to talk about the 'possibility of living together'?!"

Xiao Zhaoshan replied: "Why can't we talk between husband and wife? Xiao Chining is our son, didn't we live with him in the past?"

There was a sudden silence in the room.

Several minutes later, before Xiao Chining got impatient, Chi Yan finally spoke again, and she asked, "So? You want to divorce me?"

Xiao Zhaoshan said: "If we can all live well in this way."

Chi Yan said with a sarcasm: "Don't tell me, you just realized today that you haven't had a good life in the past 20 years, and we are not suitable."

Xiao Zhaoshan paused for a while, then said calmly, "It's pretty good. It's just that I found out recently that it could be better."

Xiao Chining was so happy that he almost whistled outside the door.

"Who is it?" Chi Yan suddenly asked sharply, "Who are you after?!"

"Who is it?" Xiao Zhaoshan repeated to Chi Yan the question that Xiao Chining asked a few days ago, "I also want to know, who is it that made this home like this."

"Are you blaming me?"

A series of heavy bangs suddenly sounded in Xiao Chining's ears, as if something had fallen to the ground or something had been smashed against the door.

Chi Yan went crazy, and yelled loudly in the middle of the night regardless of his image: "You fucking don't turn black and white, and talk about changing your heart so high-sounding! Xiao Zhaoshan, I don't owe you anything!"

"When did I say you owed me anything?" Xiao Zhaoshan seemed to sigh, "If you have to do that, I don't owe you anything."

"You said at the beginning that owning a listed company was your dream. I didn't hesitate to give you all the manuscript fees and auction commissions to start a business. I borrowed hundreds of thousands from my mother for your turnover. I encourage you to let go and do it. "Including that year, when you gave birth to Xiao Chining and went to Australia to recuperate, I just got out of prison, and before I could do anything important, I stayed at home and took care of him for a year."

Xiao Zhaoshan has been in prison?Xiao Chining couldn't help being surprised.

"Chi Yan, I never promised you anything, but at least this, I can promise with a clear conscience." Xiao Zhaoshan in the door continued, "That is, I wanted to run this family with you very much."

Chi Yan didn't smash things anymore, but laughed at his "clear conscience": "When other people's wives are worried every day that their husbands are away from home and messing around outside, I'm still secretly rejoicing, thinking that the way of life we ​​choose is That's right, I thought you wouldn't be like those men who love the new and dislike the old, who see different things and want to change. After eating a couple of delicious things, you will dislike your messy wife. Yes, Xiao Zhaoshan, it's all my fault, I should be a full-time housewife , doing laundry and cooking at home to serve you, you should get rid of Xiao Chining, so as not to tie up your hands and feet that want to show off your ambitions, and when you divorce me because of money-losing goods outside, you should take it out immediately without saying a word Sign the divorce agreement."

Xiao Zhaoshan's always calm tone finally became a little turbulent.

He said displeased: "You still don't understand what the problem is. Even if you don't have the zodiac sign Chi Ning and don't go to work, we will still get to where we are today, sooner or later."

Chi Yan went crazy again.Xiao Chining heard the sudden harsh sound of glass breaking in the room.

She asked angrily: "So! Tell me, where is the problem?! Tell me!"

Xiao Zhaoshan couldn't bear it anymore, and said bluntly: "The problem is that! We are not that affectionate at all!"

His final voice trembled, Xiao Chining could completely imagine his frowning and clenched teeth, as if he was right in front of his eyes.

The distance seemed to be getting closer, Xiao Zhaoshan said softly, but he heard it more and more clearly across the door.

He heard Xiao Zhaoshan say: "Chi Yan, let's stop pretending to be in love. There's no need, really."

As soon as the voice fell, the door was opened from the inside.Xiao Chining recovered from the momentary stupefaction, quickly dodged, and when he raised his head, he still met Xiao Zhaoshan's cold gaze.

"Father..." He greeted awkwardly, but unconsciously looked past Xiao Zhaoshan and looked at Chi Yan behind him.

When he first came to Beijing, he had imagined countless times what Chi Yan would look like when he lost his marriage, lost his career and lost everything he cared about.

He thought she was going to break down, cry, and regret.However, now, he was disappointed to find that Chi Yan was not as frightened and painful as her voice expressed.

She just stood quietly next to the fallen suitcase and the mobile phone whose screen was shattered, and stood among the shards of glass, looking straight at Xiao Zhaoshan's back, her chest heaving unwillingly.

Her dignified curly hair is not messed up in the slightest, her eight-centimeter high patent leather high heels are spotless, her eyes still have an indelible look, and the tight corners of her mouth are full of irresistible pride and self-respect, Xiao Chining finds it boring up.

On the contrary, Xiao Zhaoshan was full of hostility.

"Where did it go again?" he asked.

Xiao Chining withdrew his gaze and lifted the skateboard in his hand: "I'm going to try the new skateboard you bought for me."

"Go back and take a shower and sleep." Xiao Zhaoshan passed him, pressed the down button of the elevator, and didn't look back at Chi Yan again.

Xiao Chining turned around and asked him, "What about you? Where are you going?"

"You don't have to know."

Xiao Zhaoshan left without hesitation, no one spoke here, the voice-activated lights in the corridor automatically went out, leaving only the dim light in the entrance to illuminate the two close relatives who were strangers.

Xiao Chining saw that the elevator stopped on the first floor, so he knew that Xiao Zhaoshan was going to drive.He immediately pressed the down button, ready to chase Xiao Zhaoshan, but Chi Yan at the door stopped him abruptly.

"Xiao Chining." She asked in a stern voice, "Did you hear that?"

Xiao Chining stood at the door of the elevator, turned his head to look at her lightly, and nodded in affirmation.

So Chi Yan said bitterly: "Then tell me who your dad fell in love with recently."

For a moment, Xiao Chining wanted to tell the truth provocatively: it was me, it was me, your biological son.

But he thought about Xiao Zhaoshan's appearance a few days ago that wanted to put him to death, so he gave up this idea again.

He couldn't deny that Xiao Zhaoshan still cared about Chi Yan very much, otherwise he wouldn't get angry because of Chi Yan repeatedly.

"Why ask me, Mom," he replied without emotion, "I'm just a dispensable person in this family, I don't know."

Chi Yan sneered: "Because he couldn't find you, he called me in the middle of the night to scold me, and you told me that you were dispensable? Xiao Ning, didn't he teach you to be honest, did you forget?"

Xiao Chining said: "He taught him, I live mine, haven't I always been like this?"

Chi Yan's eyes were like swords: "You and your father are really self-righteous carved out of the same mold."

"You're too polite, at least half of the credit is due to you, mother." Xiao Chining pulled his face down, "What's more, no matter how self-righteous my father is, he will not deceive himself into loving someone else by mistake."

Chi Yan chuckled: "Wrong is wrong? Do you also think our marriage is wrong?"

Ding——the elevator door just opened, Xiao Chining didn't answer this question, and went straight into the car.

After leaving the residential building, he turned around and looked up at the window that was still lit. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether he was irritated or simply bewildered.Or, he didn't care as much as he imagined, and he didn't care as much as he imagined.

He was thinking about Xiao Zhaoshan with all his heart.

He lowered his head, stepped on the skateboard immediately, and galloped towards the entrance of the community.

The moment Xiao Zhaoshan went out, he didn't really think about where he was going, but it was some kind of life experience that drove him to leave the irrational Chi Yan and the home that didn't feel like home.

He worked on the draft for five days in the gallery day and night, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was physically and mentally exhausted, and he really didn't have the energy to pointlessly blame and settle old scores with Chi Yan.

Even when he received her late call this afternoon, he didn't plan to have a showdown in these two days.He wants to rest, body and mind.

After he asked Qu Cheng to send the painting to a special studio to dry, he seized the time to catch up on three hours of sleep in the office, and then went to the airport to pick up Chi Yan non-stop, just like she usually does every time she returns from a business trip.

The quarrel broke out unexpectedly on the way home.

The reason was that Chi Yan apologized to him, saying that he shouldn't have treated him so badly that day.Xiao Zhaoshan had a premonition of something, and told her seriously that it was not supposed to be a matter of joking.

As expected, Chi Yan said in the next sentence: "But you shouldn't be so angry at me, isn't the person finally found?"

From here on, he fell silent.

The atmosphere in the car instantly dropped to freezing point, Chi Yan closed his mouth, his expression gradually became ugly.It is estimated that she endured all the way and closed the door before she was really qualified to throw things.

Xiao Zhaoshan knew very well that this mirror was doomed to be shattered, either today or tomorrow, it couldn't be avoided, it couldn't be glued together.In the final analysis, he could no longer ignore Chi Yan's hypocrisy and selfishness, so he had to show his cards now and couldn't wait for a moment.

He closed his eyes and leaned against the car window, rubbed his temples, and finally booked a room for a week in a four-star hotel on the other side of Beijing with his mobile phone.As far as he knows, Chi Yan will stay at home for at least a week after this trip.

He used the navigation to find the location of the hotel, started the car and left the underground parking lot.However, as soon as he left the community, he saw Xiao Chining holding his skateboard and looking forward to it by the side of the road.

He secretly sighed, and at the same time he was helpless, but he also got a little comfort.So he parked the car in front of Xiao Chining and unlocked the car.

Xiao Chining jumped on the co-pilot, put the skateboard between his legs, and asked, "Dad, where do you want to go?"

Xiao Zhaoshan also asked: "What are you doing here?"

Xiao Chining said while fastening his seat belt: "I feel that you will need me very much now, so I'm here."

Xiao Zhaoshan stepped on the accelerator again, and suddenly changed his mind: "Where do you want to go?"

"Me?" Xiao Chining looked up at his side face and replied sincerely, "I want to take you to the woods."

Xiao Zhaoshan glanced at him incredulously.

Sure enough, Xiao Chining then smiled slyly: "—the sunken square next to it."

"It's the place where you saw Hu Yingxue on the day of the parent meeting, remember?" He looked forward and said briskly, "There should be no one at this point, especially suitable for father and son to have an affair."

Xiao Zhaoshan suddenly had an illusion, as if Xiao Chining had never been troubled.

"Then do you remember?" He couldn't help asking, "We had a fight a few days ago, and I almost strangled you."

Xiao Chining nodded: "Remember. If Dad, you had pinched my neck during sex that day, I would definitely not feel so uncomfortable, maybe I would cry."

Xiao Zhaoshan was amused by him: "Is it because you have nothing else in your mind except my body?"

Xiao Chining is not ashamed: "Of course there are other things. For example, what have you been doing these five days? Are you still angry with me? Do you really want to divorce Chi Yan? Do you want to divorce her? I lived together, when will we move out, where is the best place to choose a new home, what decoration style do you like, what kind of mattress and pillow do you like to sleep on, what kind of shower gel do you like..."

"In short!" Xiao Chining hummed a song while talking, "You are all in your head, you are in your heart, the little love is so sweet in Beijing; all you are thinking about, all are you, Little Love only falls in love with you in Beijing."

Now Xiao Zhaoshan can be sure that he, the father, has been coaxed by the son.

"You sing pretty well." He turned the steering wheel and made a brief evaluation.

"Also." Xiao Chining looked at him firmly, and asked in a low voice, "Dad, have you really been in prison?"

The smile on Xiao Zhaoshan's mouth gradually disappeared.

Xiao Chining paused, and then said: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to answer, the above are not important to the moment, you don't need to tell me right away."

He pulled off the seat belt, got up from the chair, and suddenly kissed Xiao Zhaoshan on the right cheek.

Xiao Zhaoshan didn't expect him to come out like this, subconsciously slowed down the speed of the car and looked at him in surprise.

"The most important thing now is to let you know that the skateboard you chose is very good with you," Xiao Chining looked back at him with a sweet smile, "Thank you dad, I like it very much."

The more flooded Xiao Zhaoshan's heart was, the less good things he could say verbally.He was speechless for a moment, turned his head expressionlessly and continued to look at the road.

There were no cars on the road in the middle of the night, and they arrived at their destination in less than 10 minutes, the sunken square near Xiao Chining School.

As he said, there was no one to be seen in the square, so Xiao Zhaoshan parked his car on the side of the road and walked to the center of the square with him, relying on no one to post a note.

Xiao Chining is unusually lively, like a bird out of the cage, stepping on a skateboard to show off his skills in circles, occasionally jumping and turning in the air.

Xiao Zhaoshan climbed to the top of the steps alone, picked a relatively clean place and sat down.

He wanted to smoke two cigarettes, but when he touched his trouser pocket, he realized that he was too hasty to go out without cigarettes and a lighter.So he simply stretched his legs, did nothing, and kept staring at Xiao Chining's nimble figure.

Under the dim streetlights, his shadow was stretched very long. On the silent street, unless a vehicle passed by, only the sound of the pulley moving forward and landing could be heard.At this moment, Xiao Zhaoshan finally realized the absurdity.

How many Xiao Chinings in the world would be so happy after learning that their biological parents broke up and were about to divorce?Even he himself felt that Xiao Chining's reaction was logical and natural.

Does this prove from the side that his decision to propose a divorce to Chi Yan was the right choice?Because they probably really are one of the worst parents in the world, one of the worst couples in the world to break up.

Xiao Zhaoshan calmed down from the inside out.On such a night, exhaustion and lingering anger are not worth mentioning, and conflicts and struggles are all gone.

Xiao Chining stopped and waved at him: "Dad!"

Xiao Zhaoshan raised his chin to indicate that he heard it.

"Come down." Xiao Chining said.

Xiao Zhaoshan got up, walked down the steps and came to him as he said: "What are you doing?"

Xiao Chining pushed the skateboard to his feet: "Can you skateboard?"

"will not."

"It's very simple, I'll teach you."

"Did I say that I want to learn?" Xiao Zhaoshan stepped on the other end of the skateboard and let it slide back to Xiao Chining.

Xiao Chining pushed it over again: "You will fall in love with it just once, try it."

Xiao Zhaoshan put his toes against the skateboard to prevent it from coming over: "Don't try."

Xiao Chining stepped up his feet to compete with him: "You bought a very good one. The wheels with a hardness of 97A are the most suitable for skating on this kind of road. The experience is first-class. Are you sure you don't want to try it?"

Xiao Zhaoshan only thought it was funny for people in their 40s to play this game: "I paid for it and paid for it, what's the point?"

"Blow on the board, and all troubles will disappear. Daddy, trust me."

"Then what about your troubles, are they all gone?"

"Well, at least for now."

Xiao Zhaoshan's heart was filled with irony, and his feet suddenly loosened.

Xiao Chining didn't have time to stop his feet, and the skateboard was kicked a few meters away by him.The lower body lost support, he staggered out of inertia, and fell directly forward.

Xiao Zhaoshan succeeded, raised his hand to catch him calmly, wrapped his thin back and hugged him firmly in his arms.

"Scare me..." Xiao Chining raised his face, intending to ask him why he didn't say it in advance.

However, Xiao Zhaoshan had already prepared to lower his head, precisely found his lips, and kissed him deeply.

This is what it feels like to be loved.It's like enjoying the wind on a skateboard, or falling from a branch, turning into mud and turning into dust, always by Xiao Zhaoshan's side.

Xiao Chining thought this way just before closing his eyes.

They embraced each other in the center of the sunken square, embraced each other in Beijing's night when winter was about to enter, and kissed and kissed passionately.They let go of each other until they were about to forget how humans breathe.

Xiao Zhaoshan rubbed his earlobe and said with a smile, "This is the way I get rid of my troubles."
