half thorns, half joy

The person in the photo was clearly Tang Xuan.

Smiling, seemed to be looking at him.

The boss looked at Zheng Yifan seriously, and asked Zheng Yifan, "Brother, did you see it, is it your classmate?"

"Where is she now?" Zheng Yifan grabbed the boss's collar violently, almost suppressing his growl, "Where is Tang Xuan now? Where is she?"

The boss was taken aback, and looked at Zheng Yifan as if he was insane, and was so frightened that he didn't know what to say.

Zheng Yifan closed his eyes and opened them again. Even his eye sockets were red. He choked up and said, "Please tell me, where is this person now? Isn't she an employee of your company? Why isn't she here today? What happened to me two days ago? Tian Lai is not here?"

Seeing Zheng Yifan's reaction, the boss couldn't help wondering, "You two, there must be some relationship..."

Zheng Yifan was silent, which was regarded as tacit consent.

"Oh, let me go first, I think you're excited." The boss gave Zheng Yifan an angry look, "There's a reason why she's not here, she's pregnant, and I'm giving her maternity leave."

Pregnant……

Zheng Yifan couldn't believe his ears, "You mean, this Tang Xuan, the Tang Xuan in the photo, is pregnant?"

"That's right, she has severe morning sickness, so I let her go home to recuperate." The boss looked Zheng Yifan up and down, "I didn't say, brother, why are you so excited, you wouldn't..."

Seeing that Tang Xuan was pregnant, no one came to pick her up and go to get off work. She was usually alone, and sometimes she looked lonely. Now the boss looked at Zheng Yifan, recalling the past, and couldn't help but suspect that Zheng Yifan was the child in Tang Xuan's belly. dad.

The boss thought about it, sighed, and patted Zheng Yifan on the shoulder, "Brother, you have to be responsible for being a man. I have experience. A woman is pregnant for ten months without a man by her side, but it is very painful."

Zheng Yifan clenched his fists. Instead of explaining to the boss, he asked, "Please tell me where she lives now."

"This……"

"Please." Zheng Yifan's eyes were red, "I have been looking for her for several months, and now I finally have her whereabouts. Please tell me where she is now."

The boss saw that Zheng Yifan had sincere feelings, and he didn't seem like a bad man who was a liar, and if he was a bad man, he might wish to run away and hide, how could he get close to him.

Thinking that if the child in Tang Xuan's womb really belonged to Zheng Yifan, then Tang Xuan would be quite pitiful. After all, Tang Xuan had worked with him for a while, and he had some feelings for him. The boss didn't hide it, and said truthfully: "I only know that she lives in Guangmingtai Community, but I don't know the specifics."

"Thank you, thank you." Zheng Yifan threw his arms around the boss and hugged him tightly.

The boss was dumbfounded by this hug, coughing and pushing Zheng Yifan away.

Zheng Yifan let out a sigh of relief, and said to the boss: "Put the things here first, and I will pick them up tomorrow, so I will leave first."

"Tomorrow? When is tomorrow?"

"I'll call you when the time comes, or you call me." Zheng Yifan took out a beautiful business card and stuffed it into the boss's hand, "I will come to you to do all the business of our company in the future."

This sentence made the boss raise his mouth immediately.

"Good talk, good talk."

"Okay, I'm leaving, goodbye." Zheng Yifan waved his hand and rushed out impatiently.

He strode to the side of the road, hailed a taxi, and went straight to the Guangmingtai community.The taxi driver drove unsteadily, Zheng Yifan couldn't wait, and urged the driver to drive faster along the way.

Ten minutes later, the taxi stopped at the gate of Guangmingtai community, Zheng Yifan got out of the car, and looked at the iron gate of the community with a surge of emotion.

"Hello, do you know which building a girl named Tang Xuan lives in who moved here a few months ago?" Zheng Yifan trotted forward and asked the guard on duty.

How could the doorman know the name of which family, and shook his head blankly.

Zheng Yifan didn't give up, and asked with gestures: "It's about this tall, she looks pretty, and she's pregnant, do you know where she lives?"

"I don't know." The guard frowned at Zheng Yifan, "Who are you? A relative of her family?"

"No, I'm her friend, a college classmate." Zheng Yifan knew that he was too excited, which aroused the suspicion of the guard, and quickly explained to himself, "I heard that she is pregnant, so come and see her."

The guard said impatiently: "Then won't you call her?"

Zheng Yifan was lonely, "She changed her mobile phone number, I don't know her current phone number, so I can't contact her."

Now the guard became more and more suspicious of Zheng Yifan, and directly questioned Zheng Yifan: "I said, you are not a stalker. Even if you don't have a mobile phone number now, just ask your mutual friends and you will know, even if you don't You know, there’s always WeChat Koukou.”

"She doesn't need those anymore..." Zheng Yifan saw that the guard was about to arrest him as a suspect, so he didn't say any more, and silently backed away, all the way to the curb opposite the iron gate.

It seemed that he could only wait here for Tang Xuan to come out.

……

After Tang Xuan became pregnant, in order to ensure the amount of exercise every day, she would insist on walking to the vegetable market in the morning and evening to buy vegetables, and then walking back, using the two trips to exercise her body.

In the past few days, she has started to watch the famous Taiwanese variety show "Kangxi Is Coming", with one episode in the morning and one in the afternoon every day, laughing straight at the little S's weirdness.

After watching one episode, when it was four o'clock, she put on her cloth bag for grocery shopping and went out.

It takes 10 to [-] minutes to walk from the neighborhood where Tang Xuan lives to the big vegetable market. She walked along the road while looking at the road, thinking about what vegetables to buy.

Today, she went downstairs and walked outside the community. She was thinking about whether to stew chicken soup or pork ribs soup tonight. The moment she opened the iron gate with a card, she looked up and suddenly saw the person across the road.

"Tang Xuan!" the man yelled.

Tang Xuan was so frightened that she stood still and forgot to even run.She watched helplessly as the man ran towards her and stood in front of her.

"Tang Xuan! It's really you! I finally found you!" Zheng Yifan broke down in tears and pulled Tang Xuan into his arms.

It took Tang Xuan a long time to react. She stammered and said, "You...why are you here..."

"I was sent here on a business trip to cooperate with your company. I saw your name on the wall of your company, and I found out about you after asking the boss..." Zheng Yifan let go of Tang Xuan, and his eyes fell on Tang Xuan's bulging eyes. On the lower abdomen, she took a step back, "You... so you... are really pregnant?"

Tang Xuan also followed Zheng Yifan's line of sight. She lowered her eyes and hummed.

Zheng Yifan was heartbroken, and it took him a while to speak again, "The child... is... Xiao Zihan's?"

Tang Xuan nodded again.

Silence spread between the two.

"Hey, are you alright?" the guard, who regarded Zheng Yifan as a suspect, asked worriedly when he saw Tang Xuan and Zheng Yifan were in a stalemate.

Tang Xuan turned her head and explained to the guard with a smile, "It's okay, this is a classmate who came to see me, thank you."

"Oh, classmate." The guard saw that Tang Xuan didn't look like she was being forced to lie, so she didn't worry and went back to stand guard.

Zheng Yifan smiled helplessly, "It seems that I've been treated as a bad person by squatting here with you."

"Have you been here for a long time?" Tang Xuan joked, pretending to be relaxed, "You just said you were on a business trip. How long?"

"Two months."

"It's been a long time. Where do you live now?" Tang Xuan shook the bag in her hand, "Are you busy tonight, why don't you have a meal together, and I'll cook."

The more Zheng Yifan looked at the smile on Tang Xuan's face, the more he felt sorry for Tang Xuan, "Now...you cook for yourself?"

Tang Xuan nodded, "That's right, it's better to cook and eat by yourself, and save money. I don't have a job now, so I can't eat and drink too much."

"You have no money?" Zheng Yifan showed a anxious look, "If you have no money, you can find me, if you find me, I can..."

"Let's go grocery shopping together, or if you're tired, go upstairs and rest for a while, and I'll go shopping alone." Tang Xuan interrupted Zheng Yifan's words suddenly. Although she was still smiling, it was obvious that she didn't want Zheng Yifan Go on.

Zheng Yifan's words were choked back, and he felt very uncomfortable, but he had just reunited with Tang Xuan, so he couldn't bear to let Tang Xuan separate, so he could only keep his mouth shut and said, "Let's go, let's go shopping."

Tang Xuan seemed to be in a good mood, chatting and laughing with Zheng Yifan, "The food I cook now is better than before. Is there any dish you want to eat? I'll make it for you. It's a cleansing for you. "

Zheng Yifan lowered his head and replied sullenly: "Whatever, I will do."

He had a lot to say and a lot of questions to ask, but it was obvious that Tang Xuan didn't want to say anything, nor did she want to answer him.

This attitude hurt him very much, but he couldn't blame Tang Xuan.

Xiao Mingyuan was imprisoned, the disgraceful family history of the Xiao family was uncovered, and Zheng Yifan finally knew why Tang Xuan chose to be with Xiao Zihan back then.

Since she and Xiao Zihan were together to get close to the Xiao family, Tang Xuan definitely didn't have much affection for Xiao Zihan.

What's more, when things got to this point, it was impossible for Xiao Zihan and Tang Xuan.

Suddenly, he thought so much and had hope again. He started looking for Tang Xuan everywhere, wanting to protect Tang Xuan and treat Tang Xuan well.

But no matter how hard he searched, Tang Xuan completely disappeared as if she had evaporated from the world.At first, he wondered if the Xiao family had poisoned Tang Xuan and took revenge on Tang Xuan.

This guess was dispelled after he learned that Xiao Zihan was also looking for Tang Xuan.

He knew that Tang Xuan left by herself.

Where did Tang Xuan go?How are you doing?Is there any danger?Is Tang Xuan still sad about the past?The hateful thing was that he didn't know that Tang Xuan was burdened with so much. He hated himself for not knowing anything and letting Tang Xuan face it alone.

He thinks about these problems every day, thinking about not working, thinking about not being able to sleep at night.

As the saying goes, if you walk through iron shoes, you can't find anywhere, and you won't have to work hard to find it. Who would have thought that he would find Tang Xuan by accident when he was assigned to a small place on a business trip because of repeated mistakes at work.

Isn't this just the arrangement of fate?
Zheng Yifan turned his head and glanced at Tang Xuan.Tang Xuan looked a little fatter than when he saw her before. When she walked, she no longer looked like a girl like she used to. She had the posture of a pregnant woman.

But in Zheng Yifan's eyes, it still made him want to protect so much.

Tang Xuan lived here alone, Xiao Zihan didn't know about it, but this time, he was the first to find Tang Xuan.

Zheng Yifan gritted his teeth, and he made up his mind again.

"Let me cook sweet and sour fish for you. I'm very good at making sweet and sour fish now." Tang Xuan smiled and said to Zheng Yifan as if she couldn't feel Zheng Yifan's persistent gaze.

"Don't make things too complicated, it's too troublesome." Seeing Tang Xuan's friendly attitude towards him, Zheng Yifan turned around and said to Tang Xuan, "By the way, do you have any extra rooms?"

Tang Xuan looked at Zheng Yifan in surprise, "Huh?"

Zheng Yifan explained as calmly as possible, "Well, I'm living in a hotel right now. The hotel is not very hygienic and the environment is not good. I'm not used to living here. If you have a spare room here, please lend me a place. Stay."

Tang Xuan frowned, "I have one bedroom and one living room here, there are no extra bedrooms."

Zheng Yifan saw that there was a turning point, and quickly said: "It's okay, I can sleep on the sofa in the living room, it's much better than my smelly hotel, don't you think?"

After finishing speaking, Zheng Yifan looked at Tang Xuan nervously, for fear that Tang Xuan would refuse.
