He said and lowered his eyes: "Actually, I didn't really want to marry him at the beginning. It was only because something happened to the Shen family. I wanted him to leave there and give him better living conditions, so I let him get married on the grounds of marriage. He moved to me, and then... he took the initiative to show his favor to me and approached me. I wondered if I could also respond to him and approach him."
"You can," Yu Shu said, "If he doesn't mind your situation, then you can do it without worry. Since he took the initiative in the beginning, now it's your turn-by the way, are you still taking medicine? ?"
Qin Yi didn't tell her about the car accident, and now he can only continue to lie to her: "Eating."
"That's good."
Qin Yi wanted to say something, Yu Guang suddenly swept Shen Ci downstairs, so he swallowed the words that he hadn't spoken yet, and said, "It seems like it's almost time."
It was close to ten o'clock in the evening, and it was time for the prescribed rest time in the nursing home, but the nurse hadn't come to remind him yet.
Shen Ci vaguely heard "It's almost time", ran over and sat back next to Qin Yi again.
Qin Yi: "Then I won't bother you, and rest early."
"Okay," Yu Shu smiled at them, his voice was soft and gentle, "Be happy."
"Thank you Auntie," Shen Ci waved at her across the screen, "Goodbye Auntie."
The nurse came to help turn off the video call and said to them "Happy New Year" by the way.
Qin Yi put down his mobile phone and exhaled slowly. He heard Shen Ci say a little unpleasantly: "Why did you leave me halfway? What can't I hear?"
Qin Yi looked at him, saying that he could see it. Shen Ci murmured: "Obviously, he said that he would let me see my parents, and then dismissed me, indicating that you still treat me as an outsider."
The dissatisfaction in his tone was about to overflow, and Qin Yi couldn't help but rubbed his hair: "Talk about the condition, do you want to listen?"
"...I don't believe it," Shen Ci suddenly sat upright, "Communication about the illness during the New Year? And the nurse is still there, so you are not afraid to accidentally say something that shouldn't be said and attract people's attention?"
"Be careful, they don't know about my situation," Qin Yi seemed to be completely indifferent. "At best, tell Qin Qian, but Qin Qian won't care about me."
Speaking of Qin Qian, Shen Ci realized that Qin Yi's mother and son had never mentioned Qin Qian from the beginning to the end, and Ms. Yu did not ask, "Does your father agree?" They all agreed that Qin Qian didn't exist, and didn't want to mention any topic about him.
"Wen Yao gave you New Year's Eve money?" Qin Yi didn't continue to talk about Qin Qian's affairs. It seemed that he didn't want this scum to ruin the atmosphere of the New Year, and quickly changed the subject.
"Yes."
"Why does he give you lucky money?"
"Huh?" Shen Ci did not understand the meaning of this sentence, hesitated, "I also told him not to give it, but he said that Shen Zhaocheng will not give it to me this year, and Aunt Xiang is not there. He is the elder brother and the eldest brother. Like a father, so he will give me money instead of my parents."
"He is not your brother."
Shen Ci's voice was even smaller: "You are not my brother, did you also give me New Year's money?"
Qin Yi was choked by him: "I am a fiance."
Shen Ci really didn't have the heart to expose him. It seemed that there was no tradition of giving new year money to the fiancé. On the contrary, it was a recognized custom for the elders to give the juniors.
Qin Yi probably knew that the reason was far-fetched, so he didn't continue to say, but said: "Go and ask if the dumplings in the kitchen are ready, eat and go to bed earlier."
Shen Ci didn't expect him to stay up all night, and if he persisted until ten or two, he was basically "satisfied". He went to the kitchen to serve dumplings, but did not go to the dining room, and shared them with Qin Yi on the coffee table in the living room.
The two of them had eaten enough for dinner, so not only Qin Yi didn't eat a few of these dumplings, but even Shen Ci himself didn't eat much. Wen Yao joined in midway, and the three barely finished two dishes. .
Because he was too full to eat, Shen Ci was actually sleepy, but he had to wait for ten to two o'clock before going to sleep, which was like a sense of ritual—when he and his mother depended on each other for life, that's how they leaned on each other. Keep guarding ten or two o'clock and listen to the countdown bell to welcome the arrival of the new year.
Shen Ci leaned on Qin Yi, his eyelids almost unable to open, until he heard the countdown on the TV return to zero, and finally couldn't hold it, and fell asleep deeply.
The villa is not in the city center, and the surrounding area is relatively quiet. In addition, the sound insulation itself is good. People in the villa cannot hear the sound of fireworks and firecrackers outside. Even on the night of the 30th year, it is as quiet as usual. .
Qin Yi sat motionless for a while, then suddenly stretched out his hand and gently hugged Shen Ci in his arms.
The other person was as warm as ever, and he couldn't help but slowly approached and kissed him carefully.
Starting from the forehead, touching the eyebrows, rubbing the bridge of the nose, and finally falling on the soft lips, slowly and softly, as if kissing a beloved treasure, not dare to exert too much effort for fear of breaking it.
Shen Ci felt his touch and struggled slightly, but he was too sleepy to open his eyes successfully. Instead, his waist and eyes softened and he completely fell into his arms.
Qin Yi caught him, and seeing his eyelids trembling, he wanted to wake up but couldn't wake up, and kissed his trembling eyelashes with his head down.
Perhaps Yu Shu was right.
In the new year, he should take the initiative.
