Shang Xi and Gu Wen returned to their residence.
Her pace quickened a little, walking ahead of Gu Wen.
She didn't know why, but she didn't want to be alone with Gu Wen now, nor did she want to face him face to face.
All in all, it was very uncomfortable.
As soon as she entered the room, the ears of the werewolves who were playing with the cubs in the hall twitched, thinking that Uncle Scar had said that Shang Xi wanted to maintain the harmonious status quo and didn't want the atmosphere to become too tense, so they couldn't make it too obvious.
At the same time, they really wanted to tell her the reason why they didn't come down for dinner, and apologize to her and ask for forgiveness.
However, pure human beings have sensitive minds and don't show what's going on in their hearts. They are careless and rashly come forward to mention that matter. Will it make it difficult for Shang Xi?
Yellow Tail's tangled paws tightened their grip.
When I thought that Shang Xi might hate them, my mood was like a deflated balloon, slowly deflating.
Qingwei glanced at Nangxi secretly, and looked away in disappointment.
Lanwei was sitting on the edge, his eyes already red.
"Nang Xi is back! The master of the house is back!!" Kuroo cried out.
Midorio was stunned for a moment, and then said hurriedly: "Nang Xi, good evening."
"Nang Xi, did you have fun today?"
They had to greet each other as usual, otherwise Shang Xi would think too much and hurt her unintentionally.
Shang Xi really didn't find anything wrong with the werewolves.
In other words, she didn't pay much attention to them.
She smiled and nodded: "Good evening everyone, go to bed early, good night."
"Mom!" Shang Bao took his mother's hand. The mother and son were going back upstairs. The little guy turned his head and waved his little hand: "Good night, uncles and aunts Wolf, and good night dad."
Shang Xi heard Gu Wen's steady footsteps walking behind her. Her body stiffened slightly and she quickened her steps uncomfortably. She wished she could go back to the room on the second floor and close the door immediately.
Gu Wen's eyes fell on the woman's back lustfully, and he whispered: "The kindergarten is going to have a picnic tomorrow, and parents are required to participate."
Shang Xi didn't look back and hummed: "I know."
The main task of the picnic organized by Junlin Children is to set up a tent with the children, cook food together, and establish a parent-child relationship. The school recommends that both parents participate.
Tents and food are provided by the kindergarten.
The two parents only need to gather at the entrance of the kindergarten with their children.
Shang Bao had been looking forward to it for a long time. He was very happy, running around the room wagging his little tail, hooting and jumping.
Are there any little rabbits in the wild?
Ouch...he licked his lips.
Looking forward to tomorrow.
He covered himself with a thin quilt, closed his eyes, and curled his lips.
Have a good night's sleep.
The next day, early in the morning.
Shang Xi got up and dressed and washed. There might be mosquito bites in the wild. She dressed her son in casual sportswear and brought a small kettle, snacks, and dried meat.
She also wore casual clothes and tied her long hair into a high ponytail. As she walked around, the high ponytail began to "lively", which made her whole person full of youthful vitality.
She is like a college student who wants to play badminton. She is also the kind who is good-looking and popular in school.
She held Shang Bao's hand and walked down the long corridor. Halfway downstairs, she always felt that someone was staring at her. When she turned around, she saw Hong Tai holding the railing opposite, staring at her aggrievedly. He whimpered listlessly.
Shang Xi:?
As a result, the next second, Red Tail wagged his tail and showed his usual smile: "Good morning, Shang Xi, cub."
Shang Xi:...? ?
Just now, she must have been wrong.
"Good morning." She nodded with a smile and continued downstairs.
Red tail looked at Naxi's back and let out a small sad cry.
She felt sad when she thought that Shang Xi hated her in her heart. When they didn't go downstairs to eat, Shang Xi mistakenly thought she was hated, so she must be sad.
Now, I can't even apologize.
If she mentions that again, will it break the atmosphere in which she has been operating? Shang Xi just likes the status quo, the status quo that has a good relationship with them on the surface.
Rather than truly entering into a close relationship in the heart.
Thinking of this, Hongwei lowered his eyes, and his lips unconsciously raised in sadness, almost ready to hang a bottle of soy sauce.
The other werewolves were in the same mood as Red Tails now. They all acted with a hint of caution, and when they got along with Shang Xi, their eyes were full of expectation to please.
They don't know many pure humans and have almost no pure human friends. Shang Xi lives with them under the same roof and gets along with them every day. At first, they found it novel, but now they really like him.
But they hurt people.
She didn't want to be close to them.
Moreover, let alone them, the head of the family is not much better than them.
Look, the head of the family is completely focused on Shang Xi now, and he can't even cover it up.
While Shang Xi was eating, the head of the family stared at her openly and secretly.
As Shang Xi went upstairs to his room, the owner's eyes followed her back.
They were chatting downstairs, and if they mentioned Shang Xi's name, the owner's sharp eyes would instantly stare at them.
There was also the night when the family leader hunted, and combined with what he said, the wolves gathered together in private to guess that the family leader must have confessed to Shang Xi but was rejected.
Thinking this way, they felt a little comforted.
They were not surprised at all that the head of the family liked Shang Xi.
Shang Xi has a good figure and looks pretty. All the clothes she wears are good-looking. She has no pungent smell. She is gentle and easy to get along with. She doesn't hesitate to talk to anyone who talks to her. She looks into people's eyes, listens carefully and answers.
The wolves who talked to her all felt like they were being taken seriously, and that feeling was unparalleled.
The most important thing is that the head of the family has had the most intimate relationship with her. Wow, this is too ambiguous! They have cubs and combine all kinds of things. It would be strange not to fall in love with them.
When Shang Xi walked towards the European-style dining table, Gu Wen was already sitting at the main seat.
As soon as she saw him, she thought of what happened last night and those long, soft and doting eyes.
She considers herself an ordinary person, not a cold stone. Gu Wen said so much and gave so much last night, like a silly son of a landlord. After accepting such a big "compensation", deep down in her heart, she held a trace of... something she couldn't put into words.
Is it gratitude?
When she was a child, there were too many people who hated her, few who loved her, and few who were kind to her.
Later, she got her grandma, friends like Youyou, Sister Dao, and Nan Si who treated her sincerely, and her favorite baby Zaizai.
Gu Wen suddenly appeared and gave her something that ordinary people could not have in several lifetimes. She said before that she was not interested in the suitor's sweet words, because she felt that no matter how beautiful this man's words were, they were all false.
She doesn't look at who says what.
She wanted to see who did what.
As for Gu Wen, like those suitors, he said he liked her.
He said it and he did it.
If he has it, he really gives it.
Was the birthday gift last night the alimony from Gu Wen, the arrears payment, or the pursuit fee for liking her? All right?
But those few words popped up in my mind for no reason...
[I don't want to see you homeless, I want you to have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life. ]
[I don't want anything from you, and I'm not exchanging anything with you. ]
[I just want to help. ]
She is now a little confused about Gu Wen's position.
He is not her best friend.
He is his son's biological father.
They are not husband and wife, not lovers.
But, he was kind to her, and he seemed to really... care about her.
Therefore, he is not a stranger, nor is he an acquaintance.
Are they comrades-in-arms and partners?
but! ! Whose partner would give so much! He would sincerely say that he would always help her and protect her on the road to happiness. Like a handsome humble knight.
What the hell... Whenever she thinks of this, Shang Xi feels uncomfortable. She is not a noble princess.
He wants status and ability, and what does he want without? Is she...really worth what he does?
When did she become so valuable? Obviously... so many relatives wanted to drive her away, and it would be a disgrace to anyone she went to. Although it was already a memory, Shang Xi had not forgotten it.
Here in Gu Wen, she has a strong feeling that she is a very precious existence...
To her, he seemed to be looking up to his stars.
She couldn't feel this in those suitors. She was just dispensable to them. It was best to spend some money to catch up with them, but she couldn't catch up with the next one.
Gu Wen gave her a feeling: even if she couldn't be with her, there would be no illusion of others.
It must be an illusion.
Therefore, the partnership relationship is no longer established.
So, what is he to her now?
This made her fall into deep confusion.
"Good morning." The man's voice was light and gentle. He looked at her, and his usually sharp and cold black eyes became much softer.
Shang Xi paused and hummed: "Good morning."
Inexplicably, she felt a little embarrassed.
She was no longer as comfortable as before, because she really realized one thing: this lone wolf liked her.
"Good morning, Dad."
Shang Bao wagged his little tail, his cute bun face bulging, and then he was picked up by his father and sat on his lap.
The little wolf cub is now a lot more familiar with his father. His little tail swayed and hit Gu Wen's legs again and again, making a crisp sound.
It's not painful or itchy, just a little noisy.
He didn't like physical contact with others, so he only hugged his own son, but this "little pendant" didn't stop.
Gu Wen pursed his lips and clicked his tongue, stretched out his hand to pinch his son's bun face, and said in a low voice: "Is it fun?"
Shang Bao's big wet eyes bent, his little lips curled up, and he said in a crisp voice: "Yeah! It's fun!"
Shang Xi chuckled.
Gu Wen was stunned for a moment, then slowly let go of the cub's face, coughed lightly, and said nothing.
finish breakfast.
A family of three got on the bus to the kindergarten.
They arrived at just the right time and many parents were already there.
Human cubs are full of energy, screaming and making a lot of noise for no apparent reason from time to time. Shang Bao frowned slightly, covered his ears, and was carried out of the car by his father.
Shang Xi also discovered that Gu Wen liked hugging his son very much. He seemed to want to make up for the hugs he had received in previous years. Wherever he was, he would not let the little guy go if he could hold him.
No hugs unless Shang Bao protests.
"Wow! Here comes a good-looking family of three."
"I knew their family would come."
"They are so loving, there is no way they would miss such an event."
Gu Wen heard another voice not far away.
Shang Xi often heard this kind of discussion during a period of time that he didn't know about. He went from being angry at the beginning to not caring, and then to joy.
Finally, it turned into the pain in my heart now.
They are not a real couple, they are not loving.
Seeing families of three and four gathered together in twos and threes, Gu Wen felt envious in his eyes and bitter in his mouth.
How much he wanted to be with Shang Xi.
Become a real family of three.
The kindergarten arranged a spacious and comfortable parent-child bus, and parents took their children on board.
"Parents, please watch your step, please drive slowly, please watch your children, pay attention to safety, safety first."
"Next, the place we're going to is a camping park, which requires an hour's drive."
Shang Xi sat in their seat, number six.
There are three seats in a row on the right, with the child sitting in the middle and the parents sitting on both sides.
Shang Xi just sat down.
I saw a female teacher holding a microphone and standing at the front of the car, watching the parents and children. "Parents please fasten your seat belts and check that your children's seat belts are fastened."
Shang Xi sat by the window, and Gu Wen sat in the aisle. After hearing the teacher's words, one person and one wolf stretched out their hands towards the cub to fasten his seat belt.
Then, their hands touched, and the backs of their hands stuck together.
Shang Xi was slightly stunned.
Gu Wen's eyes darkened.
Gu Wen did not take back his hand.
Shang Xi took it back and said to his son: "Then, how about asking your father to fasten your seat belt?"
Shang Bao pushed his father's hand away, shook his head, and said seriously: "Dad, Mom, I can fasten my seat belt myself. I have grown up a lot."
As he said that, he lowered his eyes, held the seat belt with his little hands and fastened it carefully: "Look! Can I do it?"
Shang Xi couldn't help laughing: "Okay, Zaizai is awesome."
Gu Wen glanced at Shang Xi's smile and said, "Not bad."
Female teacher: "Everyone has fastened their seat belts. Then our parent-child bus is about to start. Thank you to the parents who came to participate in this parent-child picnic.
Because of your love for your children, you spend precious time with your children.
Kissing is one of the ways to express love. Parents, please kiss your outstanding and lovely children's little faces. Don't feel ashamed or embarrassed. Love without shame. "
The scenery outside the window was receding. After hearing this, the parents all lowered their heads to pay attention to their babies.
Shang Bao consciously raised his face and approached his mother with a smile: "Mom, my dear Zaizai is here."
"Okay, baby." Shang Xi smiled and kissed his son with his eyes down.
Then there's Dad.
Gu Wen coughed slightly, Shang Bao's expression was no longer as skillful as before, and there was an awkward silence.
Shang Bao stretched out his little hand and pinched the left side of his cheek, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Dad, kiss here."
Gu Wen hummed and leaned over to touch his son's face. When he stood up, he saw Shang Xi staring at him. He pursed his lips and sat up straight.
Inexplicably, my ears feel hot.
The female teacher said: "Then next, isn't it time for the students to kiss your parents?"
Shang Bao kissed his mother on the face, clasped his little hands, and kissed his father on the face.
Whether it was happiness or shyness, his face was slightly red, and his big wet eyes were shining.
"Kissing is an expression of love and will bring each other closer. This also applies between couples. Parents expressing affection in front of their children can help their children's mental health."
When the female teacher said this, Shang Xi suddenly had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, the next second I heard the teacher say: "Finally, please ask our father to kiss your beautiful and hard-working wife, and ask our mother to kiss your handsome and responsible husband."
Gu Wen: "..."
Shang Xi: "..."
The man and the wolf were like sculptures, frozen.
