Dating After Divorce
Chapter 24:
The girl in the photo is sitting in front of the piano, with a gentle smile on the corner of her mouth, a pair of slender and slender hands resting lazily on the black and white keys, and her whole body exudes an elegant and gentle cold temperament.
The fifteen-year-old Luo Zhen was completely different from now.
Ning Rou pursed her lips, stretched out her hand to take the photo, her heart fluctuated with various emotions, and her eyes dimmed invisibly.
"She's mom's friend."
"You can't call her sister."
"If you want to call, you can only call Auntie."
"do you know?"
Ning Baobao heard his mother's words, tilted his head and thought for a while, wondering if he had figured out the relationship, so he nodded obediently.
"Baby remember~"
I've seen this beautiful aunt twice, and I still don't know her name.
Ning Baobao was about to ask, but Ning Rou put the photo into the account book again.
Before he could make a sound, he was carried into the bathroom by his mother.
The mother and daughter, one bathed in the curtain, the other stood on the stool and brushed their teeth.
Ning Rou took a bath quickly, and when she opened the curtain to come out, Ning Baobao was gargling with her pink children's cup.
In summer, the temperature is high, and there is no air conditioner at home. She is not wearing underwear, only a loose long women's nightdress. The color is the most simple light yellow, which looks a little old and faded.
It must have been worn for a long time.
"Mom sua tooth~"
Seeing that Ning Rou had finished taking a bath, Ning Baobao reached out and beckoned, and urged her mother again.
Because there was still foam in his mouth, he couldn't speak clearly.
Ning Rou couldn't help laughing softly. After putting the dirty clothes into the bucket, she also came to the face pool.
One big and one small stood side by side, still wearing pajamas of the same color.
When looking from the back, the atmosphere is warm and beautiful.
Life is hard and poor, but it doesn't mean that you have to spend every day in lamentation and complaining.
Some happiness is small and fleeting, but as long as you are willing to feel it with your heart, there is always a chance to seize it.
After Ning Baobao finished brushing her teeth, Ning Rou immediately carried her back to the bed, and she went back to the bathroom to wash her clothes again.
Ten minutes later, the switch of the night light was pressed, and the room was completely plunged into darkness.
This also means that she can finally rest after a hard day's work.
Recently, she has been having trouble sleeping. I don't know what happened tonight, and I started to feel sleepy while doing laundry.
Just lying down now, a strong sense of sleepiness rushed through my mind.
Ning Baobao shrank in his mother's arms, squinted for a while, and then secretly opened it again.
She heard her mother's breathing gradually calming down, and guessed that her mother was about to fall asleep.
After struggling for a long time, I still couldn't hold back and called out softly.
"Mom~"
Is the baby still not asleep?
Ning Rou's eyelids twitched slightly, her eyes were a little hard to open, so she could only close her eyes and give a light reply.
"Well, mom is here."
Her voice was soft and soft, and there was no impatience at all.
When she responded, her hands were still gently stroking her daughter's back through the clothes.
This is a habit left from living with Luo Zhen before.
At that time, Luo Zhen's career was just starting, and all the burden was on her alone. Occasionally, the pressure was so great that she couldn't sleep for days and nights.
Ning Rou looked distressed. When she went to bed at night, she would gently pat Luo Zhen's back with the palm of her hand like she was coaxing Ning Bao Bao now. It won't take long for Luo Zhen to fall asleep with peace of mind.
This trick is effective for Luo Zhen and also for Ning Baobao.
Thinking of this, Ning Rou's heart was in a trance.
The drowsiness struck in an instant, and even Ning Baobao could hear vaguely talking to him.
"Mom, what's my aunt's name?"
Aunt?
Ning Rou closed her eyes, her hands became slower and slower, and after a while, she murmured.
"Alo~"
A soft murmur, as if coquettish.
Because the voice was too low, Ning Baobao couldn't hear it clearly, so he could only ask another question.
"Mom~"
"What's your aunt's name~"
After two consecutive inquiries, Ning Rou finally got a second of clarity, but it was only one second.
In her sleep, she reached out and took her daughter into her arms, and then in the sultry darkness and the whirring of the fan, she said the name gently and softly.
"Her name is Luo Zhen."
Luo Zhen, it turns out that the name of the beautiful aunt is Luo Zhen.
Ning Baobao thought of the girl in the photo and the bowl of dumplings he ate at night, and subconsciously bit his lip and smiled.
In a moment of loss, she didn't hear her mother say another sentence after saying Luo Zhen's name.
In the words, there was a vague word 'mother'.
When she regained consciousness, Ning Rou had completely fallen asleep.
That night, Ning Baobao fell asleep very late.
After all, he is a child. If he goes to bed late at night, he will not be able to get up easily in the morning.
There were soothing tonics in the sweet soup. Ning Rou slept well, and she was much more energetic the next day.
Looking at her daughter who was sleeping soundly on the bed, she couldn't bear to wake someone up, but the school bus was coming. If she didn't get up, she would definitely be late today.
She works in the bar at night, and it's too late to get off work. Every time she comes home, she tries not to make a sound, but she has to take a shower and wash her clothes.
Ning Rou stood by the bed, holding the breakfast she just bought downstairs in her hand, frowning and sighing quietly.
Maybe it's time to change jobs.
Tomorrow is Saturday, and there is a day off during the day. You can take this opportunity to go to the street to see if there are other stores recruiting people.
Think so, but it's impossible to say not to worry.
If you don't know how to read, it means you can't do most of the work, and if you have problems with your ears, it's even harder to find a suitable job.
Ning Rou lowered her head slightly, her thin back was straight, like a tough and tenacious Hsinchu.
The sun shines into the room from the window, shrouding her whole body in a soft light, her figure is thin, but she is so unyielding.
A few minutes later, Ning Baobao still woke up with Ning Rou's call.
Although she didn't get enough sleep, she wasn't angry at all. After getting up from the bed, she didn't forget to straighten her little shark pillow, and then smiled and got into her mother's arms, obediently asking her to change her clothes. .
A sensible child is always easy to make people feel distressed.
It was not until Baby Ning got on the school bus that Ning Rou restrained the smile on her face, frowned and sighed heavily.
***
In the hotel, Luo Zhen was still worried about Pei Yi's arrival.
Since the two met that day, Pei Yi has not appeared again. She thought that Pei Yi had left, but only yesterday she learned from Luo Fanxing's mouth that Pei Yi just went to the province for something, and her luggage was still in the hotel.
After all, he is the youngest and most well-known pianist in China, and he has won so many prestigious honors in the world. Pei Yi has returned home this time, and various media want to gain some popularity.
Hearing that she had come to Yuanxiang from the capital, the staff of Yuanchuan TV station immediately came over and specially invited her to record a talk show on the station.
Counting the days, it should be back in two days.
The computer on the desk is still lit.
The folder opened on the desktop was sent by Yu Bai in the morning. It contained Ning Rou's specific life trajectory in the past five years, including her job changes, interpersonal communication, address changes, and medical records.
Luo Zhen has carefully read the first three documents. As Zheng Bang said before, there has never been any ambiguous opposite **** around Ning Rou, and even the number of female friends is close to zero.
In her world, there are only her and Ning Baobao.
The only one who can be called a friend is Liu Wei, the bar manager.
The reason for their familiarity is simply because their daughters are close friends and go to the same kindergarten.
Regarding the identity of the child's father, Zheng Bang consulted many people, and the answers he got were without exception, they all didn't know.
It's as if this man doesn't exist at all.
Luo Zhen sat at the table, pressing his right hand between his eyebrows, his face was gloomy and depressed.
Now, there is only one last document left.
The medical records include both Ning Rou and Ning Baobao.
Without being able to tell the reason, she suddenly felt a little uneasy, and she felt a little timid in her heart for a while, and she didn't press the right mouse button for a long time.
Ning Rou has always resisted the hospital. When she was in Haishi, she would only let a private doctor see her when she was ill.
You don't have to think about it to know that even in a small place like Yuanxiang, she would definitely not go to a regular hospital for treatment.
Although it was expected that there were not many medical records about Ning Rou, Luo Zhen's expression changed irrepressibly when he read the document.
Because this document contains almost all of Ning Baobao's medical records. There are hundreds of them, ranging from heart disease to cold and cough. As for Ning Rou's medical records, only Twenty.
On the one hand, she seldom sees a doctor; on the other hand, it is because she goes to small private clinics, and some are even Jianghu Langzhong who don't even have a business license. A doctor like this is basically a doctor after seeing a doctor. No electronic and paper information will be left on the website.
Zheng Bang was able to find twenty copies, and he had spent a lot of thought.
Luo Zhen frowned, and first turned over Ning Baobao's diagnosis and treatment list, only to find that most of it was about heart disease.
This child's physique is very poor. He suffered a lot when he was a child. From birth to the age of three, all kinds of minor illnesses have not stopped. Taking medicine is as usual as eating. After the age of three, his body is a little better. The real trouble is still For heart problems, even now, I have to go to the hospital for regular check-ups every month.
The meeting with Ning Baobao, including the one on Pingyang Road, was only three times.
The number of times is not too many, but Luo Zhen can also see from some small details that this is a very well-behaved and sensible child, with a different personality from Luo Fanxing and Luo Baiyue.
No matter how she dislikes children, looking at these case records, and thinking of that little face that is 80% similar to Ning Rou's, her heart tensed unconsciously.
The air conditioner in the room was a little low.
The hot water in the glass has run out of steam at some point, and a few round water droplets are attached to the wall of the glass, flowing down silently.
Luo Zhen held the cup in his hand, and after several minutes passed, he brought the mouth of the cup to his lips.
After Ning Baobao's medical records are over, it's time to see Ning Rou.
On the computer screen, the cursor moved slightly, and soon, Ning Rou's few medical orders were also called out.
The more she looked, the tighter her brows became.
Ning Rou's medical records are all records of fever.
It seems that, in her eyes, fever is far more terrifying than other diseases.
According to the information, there were several times when the body temperature was only slightly higher, and she immediately went to the clinic to prescribe medicine.
Why are you so afraid of fever?
Luo Zhen's red lips moved slightly, and her eyes were full of confusion.
Of course she didn't know that Ning Rou was deaf in her left ear and hearing loss in her right ear because of fever.
Twenty medical records were quickly turned over.
Zheng Bang is still looking for the small clinic that Ning Rou produced.
Luo Zhen was inexplicably absent-minded, staring at the computer without moving for a while.
It wasn't until the phone rang that he woke up.
The call was from Jian Zining.
She hesitated for a few seconds, but finally took it.
"Mr. Luo, you still know how to answer the phone!"
Friends for so many years left when they said they would leave, without even saying hello. When they took time to go back for a get-together, they refused directly. Wouldn't Jian Zi rather not be angry?
Luo Zhen lowered his eyes, not knowing how to explain.
Thinking of Pei Yi, his eyes became colder.
"As I said, I have no plans to go back for the time being."
It was still a cold voice.
It could be heard that Luo really didn't want to go back.
After looking for my wife for five years, I finally found out where she was, so why would I be willing to leave so soon?
Jian Zining's heart choked, all the words were stuck in his throat, and it took a long time to hold them back.
"I didn't let you back."
"Didn't Pei Yi go to your place?"
"We're going to find you too."
"Since you don't have time to go back to Haishi, then we can go to your place to get together."
Luo Zhen was stunned when he heard the sound, and his brows suddenly tightened.
Jian Zining, the three of them are coming too?
She was about to refuse when the woman's voice came from the phone again, and she was silenced in an instant.
"We are already in Yuanchuan Province, and we can go to Yuanxiang Township at night."
Luo Zhen never told the other three about those things with Pei Yi.
In Jian Zining's eyes, the five of them are still close friends.
Before Luo Zhen responded, a soft voice full of laughter came from his ear. It was Lu Yao's voice.
"Mr. Luo, see you tonight~"
"When will you bring your precious wife out for us to meet~"
"Weizhi this time to come to Yuan Township, but even the blind date arranged at home has been rejected~"
Before she could finish her words, the mobile phone was snatched by Zhou Weizhi.
"Luo Zhen, don't listen to her nonsense!"
"I'm not going to have a blind date!"
The mood of the three friends is obviously very good.
Luo Zhen pursed his lips, the coldness on his face quietly dissipated, and when he spoke again, his voice was much gentler.
"Um."
"Be careful on your way."
"The traffic here is not good."
Having said that, I agreed to a few people to come to me.
The phone finally returned to Jian Zining's hands.
"Let's go back with Pei Yi at night."
Luo Zhen's words were not surprising at all.
Even, she had already guessed why the three of Jian Zining suddenly came to Yuan Township.
"It was Pei Yi who asked you to come."
When it came to Pei Yi, her voice became colder.
When he lowered his eyes, his eyes just fell on his wrist.
Between the snow-white flesh, there is a light scar, the scar is very small, and the color has completely turned into a pale pink. If you don't look carefully, you can't see it at all.
Even Ning Rou didn't know that she had this injury on her wrist, let alone other people.
Luo Zhen lowered his eyes, there was no expression on his face.
After several minutes passed, Jian Zining gave a soft "um" and asked another question by the way.
"You and Pei Yi, quarreled?"
Luo Zhen's attention was still on the old wound on his wrist, and he gave a reply after a while.
"no."
The atmosphere is always weird.
Jian Zining felt that there was a problem, but couldn't figure it out.
It wasn't until he hung up the phone that he was a little surprised.
Back then, Luo Zhen and Pei Yi participated in the finals of the most prestigious piano competition in China, the Golden Tong Competition.
The winner of this competition, in addition to the prize money, will also have the opportunity to study abroad.
Luo Zhen learned to play the piano, at first to make Su Zhi happy, but later, it became purely a hobby and interest.
She doesn't like participating in competitions, so her fame is far less than that of Pei Yi.
Only their piano teachers knew that in terms of talent, Pei Yi was far inferior to Luo Zhen.
The Jintong Competition is held every five years. The specified repertoire of the competition is extremely difficult, and the age of the participants is also limited, and there is only one competition area for the youth group.
Luo Zhen was seventeen years old, and Pei Yi was fifteen years old. Both of them were within the registration range.
At that time, Pei Yi was already very famous in China. He won all the awards in various competitions. The only thing missing was the golden trophy of the Golden Tong Competition.
Luo Zhen also participated in this competition in order to go abroad.
Unfortunately, the night before the final, she accidentally fell and injured her hand tendon. She retired from the competition, and she never touched the piano again.
And Pei Yi lived up to expectations and won this hard-won honor for herself.
Everyone knows that Luo Zhen participated in the competition to leave the Luo family, but the opportunity to go abroad ended up in Pei Yi's hands.
Jian Zining remembered Luo Zhen's indifferent attitude when he mentioned Pei Yi, and then he reacted——
Luo Zhen may still be concerned about not going abroad at that time.
But, who would have known she was going to be injured before the game?
No matter how you think about it, it's no wonder that Pei Yi is on it.
However, this is always a private matter between Luo Zhen and Pei Yi.
As mutual friends of the two, Jian Zining thought for a while, but decided to wait for a few people to meet before seeing what to do.
In a blink of an eye, an afternoon passed.
The four of them arrived at Yuan Township at seven o'clock in the evening because there was a car to pick them up from the TV station.
The hotel where Luo Zhen stayed had no vacancies, so Jian Zining and the three had to go to another hotel.
Several people ran all the way, and took a rest for four hours before they recovered.
Jian Zining called Luo Zhen, but no one answered, so he had to call Pei Yi first, and the four went to the bar first.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, it happened to be the beginning of the night scene in the bar.
The four of them sat outside for a while, and within a few minutes the table was filled with all kinds of wine, all from the surrounding men.
Jian Zining frowned as he watched, and opened a box.
As soon as I entered the room, my ears suddenly became a lot cleaner.
Although some loud music can still be heard vaguely, at least the conversation will not be disturbed anymore.
"A Pei, don't you and Luo Zhen live in the same hotel?"
"Why didn't you call her when you came here?"
"We can't get in touch with her."
Among them, Lu Yao was the least thoughtful, and she didn't see any problems between Luo Zhen and Pei Yi.
Pei Yi really didn't know why Luo Zhen didn't come.
When she arrived at the hotel at 7 o'clock in the afternoon, she didn't even see Luo Zhen, let alone talk.
When asked by Lu Yao at this moment, it is unavoidable to feel a little embarrassed.
In the end, it was Jian Zining who answered this question for her.
"Isn't Luo Zhen preparing for the company's listing recently?"
"She's probably in a meeting right now."
"I came all the way here, and I can't lose my job."
"I really want to know what kind of woman she is, so she can't forget it for five years."
Somehow, the conversation turned to Luo Zhen and her mysterious ex-wife.
Three women in one play.
The four women gossip and can't stop.
About Luo Zhen's marriage, Pei Yi didn't know about it until she returned to China. Listening to a few people discussing this at the moment, her face was faintly disturbed and annoyed.
When you come to a bar, you must drink.
Pei Yi didn't want to listen anymore, so she got up and got ready to order some wine.
When she opened the door, Ning Rou happened to pass by with a wine tray. In an instant, the thin back reminded her of the woman who came out of Luo Zhen's room that day.
It's a pity that the woman walked with her head down and the speed was very fast, she didn't see the other's face clearly.
Is it the same person?
Pei Yichu stood there, a trace of confusion passed over Qing Ya's face.
Li Meizhengchou, who was on the side, had no customers to order. Seeing Pei Yi standing at the door, she immediately leaned over.
Before she could ask, Pei Yi loosened her lips.
When speaking, Yingying water-like eyes stared straight at Ning Rou who was leaving ahead.
His tone was still as gentle and gentle as ever.
"Who is she?"
"Call her over."
"I want a drink."
