"Hey, did you see the car downstairs? It seems that Xiao Jiang's husband has been waiting for her downstairs." A colleague said.
The speaker looked at his watch and exclaimed: "We have been meeting for more than three hours now. That man is so patient. If it were my husband, he would have run away by himself."
"..."
Jiang Nan went downstairs and walked straight towards the direction where the car was parked. The two people who were talking stopped when they heard the sound of footsteps. Zhou Zhengan and Wu Huiming looked at Jiang Nan together.
Jiang Nan first politely said hello to Wu Huiming, and then walked to Zhou Zhengan.
Wu Huiming had a faint loving smile on his face. He glanced at the two people who matched each other very well, and then said: "Then I won't disturb you for now. Let's go and eat."
"By the way, come to my house for dinner when you have time."
Zhou Zhengan curled his lips and nodded.
Wu Huiming took his briefcase and turned towards the underground parking lot.
Jiang Nan trotted over, still panting a bit. She was busy patting her chest to catch her breath.
Zhou Zhengan glanced at her and said amusedly: "Why are you running in such a hurry?"
"Who keeps you waiting here? You just came back from a business trip and slept on the sofa last night. Instead of waiting here for me, you might as well go back and have a good rest." Jiang Nan said a little anxiously.
"You're not tired from waiting." Zhou Zheng'an touched her head and said, "Then go eat first, then go back to bed with me after dinner."
At Jiang Nan's insistence, the two of them ended up having lunch at a restaurant downstairs from the apartment. The food was served quickly, there were few people, and it tasted good.
Jiang Nan just wanted him to go back and rest early.
After dinner, Zhou Zhengan went back to the apartment to rest. According to what he said, he wanted Jiang Nan to sleep with him. Jiang Nan couldn't get out of his arms while lying on the bed, so he thought it was a nap.
The curtains in the bedroom were closed, and the sunlight outside reflected on the curtains. The originally dark blue curtains now turned a little blue.
The two people were cuddling together on the bed, and the room was still dark.
Everything is very comfortable.
After Zhou Zheng'an fell asleep, his movements unconsciously relaxed. Jiang Nan had to go to work in the afternoon, so he got up and went out after calculating the time.
Because of this nap, she was in good spirits in the afternoon.
The two people's time was messed up, and they never found a suitable opportunity to talk about their children.
When Jiang Nan got off work at around six o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Zhengan's car parked downstairs of the company as expected.
He was dressed casually today, with his broken hair hanging down to his eyebrows. He was leaning casually against the car door without taking care of it. He looked to be in his early twenties.
When Jiang Nan went downstairs, he saw many people looking at him.
She walked over with a smile. When Zhou Zhengan saw her coming, he straightened up a little. His body was straight and slender. He was much taller than her. He was looking down at her with a sweet smile in his eyes.
Jiang Nan's heart was beating a little fast.
Such a simple and simple life is very good, she thought to herself.
Just keep going like this.
...
That night, there was a strong fire with dry wood.
This love affair was mixed with the longing for each other that they had not seen for several months. The longing blended together through the close skin, and even the fierce kiss became extremely soft and sweet at this moment.
This time, Zhou Zhengan didn't go to get the square box. Instead, Jiang Nan was so excited by the kiss that he subconsciously reached for the things on the table, but his hand came up empty.
"No more." Zhou Zhengan spoke at this time, his voice was hoarse, revealing the hoarseness of unfinished love.
It was pitch black in the night, and each other couldn't see each other's faces clearly. Jiang Nan's eyes were filled with mist and confusion. When she heard this, she looked at him and caught his shining eyes in the dark night. She said confusedly, "Well ?" said.
She failed to understand what he meant.
The two bodies were very close to each other.
Zhou Zhengan said again: "That thing was used up the night before my business trip." This time his voice was much clearer.
The things he mentioned included the box sent by Zhou Zhixu.
"So fast?" Jiang Nan's face turned red, a red that could be seen even in the dark night.
Zhou Zhengan said "hmm".
"Didn't you say you want a child? Then there's no need." He said.
Jiang Nan was stunned and had no time to speak.
Zhou Zhengan kissed her again, on her cheeks and temples.
His voice was extremely clear, deep and vivid, reaching Jiang Nan's ears, like a sapling swaying in the breeze.
"Since the last time you called me, I haven't smoked or drank. When I'm fine, I still think about the name of the child. As long as I think of that child, I have the same blood and flesh and blood as you and me. We both have similar looks, and I can’t help but laugh. Zhao Yuan and the others who were traveling with me on the business trip thought I was crazy..."
"Zhou Zheng'an." Jiang Nan called him.
"Um?"
"I love you, for a long, long time." Jiang Nan's eyes were moist, and her face was pressed against his chest, which was very hot.
The air was silent for a few seconds before Zhou Zhengan slowly said: "Me too."
The messy paper window had been painted with color using colored pens one after another. She had already been brought into his clean surface without having to poke it.
No matter how you paint on it, it will look good.
It was this night that little Anan was born.
Jiang Nan's health was not very good. When she was pregnant with little Anan, she suffered from severe morning sickness. She would vomit almost everything she ate.
Zhou Zhengan had never mentioned the child to Jiang Nan before. The biggest reason was that he was worried about this. Now that she was pregnant and this problem really happened, Zhou Zhengan realized that the supplements he had given her before were of little use.
He went to ask experienced women in the institute and men with children at home about their experiences. He even took a palm-sized notebook to record these things. Everyone in the institute knew that Zhou Zheng'an's daughter-in-law had severe morning sickness. He was very nervous about his wife.
When she was more than three months pregnant, Jiang Nan's body still looked very slender, and the supplements sent by her parents were almost in vain.
While others gain weight during pregnancy, she becomes incredibly thin.
Jiang Nan couldn't eat during the day and couldn't sleep well at night, and her mood fluctuated greatly.
Zhou Zhengan was often awakened by her crying at night. At that time, he was holding her sideways, and her body was shaking with tears, which was very distressing.
Even though Jiang Nan's temper became irritable and she cried sometimes, Zhou Zheng'an still stayed with her patiently. However, because of the nature of his work, it was not easy to ask for leave. Sometimes Jiang Nan couldn't see him, so The feeling of loneliness and grievance will become very strong.
More than four months later, Zhou Zhengan quit his job at the school and spent some not-so-rich time with her. During this period, Shen Li also moved from home to an apartment just to take care of her. Jiang Nan.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Nan felt even more uncomfortable because of Zhou Zhengan's resignation from his job as a university professor. When she cried at night, she said that she had caused a burden to him.
It was the first time that Zhou Zhengan was at such a loss. He put his arms around her and asked her to look directly at him, and then said to her very seriously: "This is not a burden. You pay for this family, and I should also pay for you. This is a two-way street." Yes, it’s a wife and a husband, this is marriage.”
Jiang Nan cried hard.
Zhou Zheng'an wiped her tears and said, "You cry like this, and it makes me feel so bad. No matter if this child is a boy or a girl, I will have to take off his pants and beat him hard several times."
Jiang Nan was amused by him, and she said, "The child probably doesn't like you."
"Whatever you like about me, he has to love you." Zhou Zhengan showed no disdain for the unborn child's liking.
He kissed her gently on the forehead.
Jiang Nan leaned on his arm quietly.
The two talked for a long time that night, and the chaotic emotions in Jiang Nan's heart were gradually soothed by her husband's words.
During this period, Zhou Zhixu's child was born in the hospital. He was a boy and was named Zhiqiao, the name she had told Jiang Nan before.
Ren Zhiqiao.
He is a very naughty and fair boy.
When Jiang Nan was more than seven months pregnant, she was particularly tired of staying at home. These days, she was pampered by the elders on both sides, and she was so pampered that she asked Zhou Zheng'an to take her out to play.
She had a big belly, so how dare Zhou Zhengan take her around. After thinking about it, he took a slow walk and took her to the place where they went to school.
Everything in the school seemed the same as before. It was time for students to attend class. They registered at the door and walked inside holding each other's hands.
Probably because he became more sensitive after becoming pregnant, Jiang Nan seemed to see himself in every corner, looking for Zhou Zhengan's figure foolishly.
She couldn't help but laugh, and tightened her grip on Zhou Zheng'an's hand, feeling his warmth coming from there.
"Zhou Zheng'an?"
Behind them, a man's uncertain voice came.
Jiang Nan and Zhou Zheng'an turned their heads together. The person who came was middle-aged and stout, with some gray hair on his temples. He looked about fifty or sixty years old.
Jiang Nan knew that this man was Zhou Zheng'an's class teacher in high school and the director of their school's education department.
I just don't know what position he holds now. He looks very neatly dressed, so he may have been promoted again.
Zhou Zhengan smiled slightly and called him as before: "Teacher Zhang."
Teacher Zhang smiled so much that the wrinkles at the end of his eyes widened, and he said: "You are really your kid. I thought I saw it wrong. You really haven't changed much from what you were back then."
He looked around at the student he was most proud of back then, and finally sighed and uttered a few words: "He has matured a lot."
"Is this your wife?" Teacher Zhang's eyes fell on Jiang Nan, who had been standing obediently, and his eyes were full of surprise when he saw her big belly.
Zhou Zhengan nodded.
Also, Zhou Zhengan is not young at all, and it is normal for his wife to be pregnant. In his memory, they are still students.
Jiang Nan was not surprised at all that he didn't remember her, but she was quite afraid of him back then. Thinking of this, Jiang Nan smiled, with gentleness between her brows: "Hello, Teacher Zhang."
Teacher Zhang nodded and said, "What a perfect match. I thought you would find a gentle and beautiful girl." The second half of his sentence was directed at Zhou Zheng'an.
Zhou Zhengan's lips curled up, and he said with the same spirit as before: "Teacher Zhang, this girl is also from our school."
Teacher Zhang was full of surprise, glanced at Jiang Nan again, and added in hindsight: "No wonder it looks familiar to me."
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Zheng'an and Jiang Nan both laughed out loud, and Teacher Zhang also smiled shyly.
After parting ways with Teacher Zhang, Zhou Zhengan led Jiang Nan to the playground. The playground had not changed much, except that the lawn looked like it had been renovated.
There are students taking physical education classes on the playground, and there are also students playing football wantonly. The atmosphere of the student days is everywhere.
They stood under a big tree, covered in shadow.
Under the trees, the cool breeze drifted by, refreshing and comfortable.
Jiang Nan and Zhou Zheng'an leaned together, neither of them spoke, feeling the sound of the wind in tacit understanding.
As a teenager, Jiang Nan once drew the boy's figure under this tree. She selfishly drew herself on the paper and stood side by side with him.
More than ten years later, this scene came true.
It was a painting that came to life many years later.
In March of the following year, their child was born. Zhou Zheng'an named the child. When choosing this name, he tossed and turned for several nights before settling on it.
Zhou Xunnan is a boy who looks like his mother and is gentle and handsome, but has a cold temperament like his father.
