Papa 17 years old

Chapter 19 The So-Called Father

【Chapter Nineteen】

After taking Runrun back from Chen Bin, the tired child fell asleep quickly, while Zhou Yuan didn't feel sleepy at all.Maybe it's because she got enough sleep in Maogai class today, or because she went to bed late recently and disrupted the rhythm of her biological clock. At this moment, she was sitting on the bedside and her eyes fell on the world outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

In the room where the lights were not turned on, the curtains of the floor-to-ceiling windows were opened by her, and the night of the city was so clearly presented in front of her eyes.The tall buildings cast shadows, like a huge sleeping monster, and the lights of the city flickered densely outside the window like stars, like fireflies eaten by monsters.Beautiful, but also very scary.Looking at the lights outside through a window, I can't feel the warmth of the light at all. □□The arm outside the quilt was slightly cold under the caress of the air conditioner.Withdrawing his gaze, Zhou Yuan touched his warm left hand with his right hand, and turned his head to glance at Run Run who was sleeping on his body.

Cold light came in from the window, and through the light, Zhou Yuan saw the child's immature and lovely face in the shadows.The child's bangs were close to his forehead, spread out irregularly, and he slept soundly with his mouth pouting.She looked at the child's sweet sleeping face, stretched out her right hand, and touched the child's pouty soft lips with her index finger.The skin touched by the fingertips is soft and moist.Seeing the child unconsciously smacking his mouth because of the sudden touch, Zhou Yuan smiled lightly.

After looking at the child, he gently lifted the quilt and tiptoed out of the room.Anyway, I can't sleep now, so I might as well find something to do.

He reached out to touch the glasses on the bedside, put them on, and walked out of the room barefooted by the cold light.Gently closed the door, subconsciously walked on tiptoe when passing the parents' room.He came to the study door quietly, went in, and closed the door gently with his backhand.Without turning on the light, I turned on the computer with the light leaking from the window.At this point, her parents have already fallen asleep, so in order not to disturb them, she has always been very careful in her movements.

When I was having dinner today, I heard from my father that I was going to Dali on the [-]th. If I couldn’t sleep, I simply went to check the strategy by myself, arrange the itinerary and make some general preparations.She hasn't asked her parents about her plans yet, and it's better to go with the group or swim by herself, but it's necessary to prepare with both hands.Moreover, the things to be prepared when going out will be prepared sooner or later.

She has never been to Yunnan, and her itinerary has put this place on the back burner.This time on the National Day, there is definitely a sea of ​​people, so there is nothing to do.But since my parents said it, I can't waste the opportunity.Although they can't play much, it is worthwhile to make them feel not bored or tired.What's more, she still needs to make some preparations. After all, her parents are not too young, so safety is important.

Enter the information you want to find, carefully filter, copy and organize the things you need into the document, and then print it out.Zhou Yuan was wearing glasses, staring at the computer, doing the task at hand seriously.

There was no light in the study room, only the light from the computer screen shone on his face. Under the dim light, his originally fair face turned slightly blue, making him look very weak and cold.The printer next to her spit out the things she had sorted out bit by bit. Amid the rustling sound of the printer, Zhou Yuan used his left hand to push his glasses from time to time, while his right hand continued to click the mouse to slide down the page.

"Why don't you turn on the light?" Zhou Huan's low voice came from the door, and with a snap, the whole study room was lit up.Zhou Yuan was squinted by the sudden light, and raised his head when he heard his father's voice. He was a little surprised to see his father's figure at the door, "Dad." She called softly.

"Playing on the computer at night without turning on the light will cause great damage to eyesight. You are already highly myopic and don't pay attention to it. If you don't sleep at night, you come to the study to play on the computer. What are you doing?" Zhou Huan held it in his hand. A glass of water, walked in while talking, the voice was suppressed very low, but just enough for Zhou Yuan to hear.He looked at Zhou Yuan with a bit of blame in his eyes, but there was some inexplicable pity in his words.

"Looking up travel guides?" Zhou Huan walked up to her, and saw the unclosed page on the computer, which displayed many pictures of large scenic spots in colorful colors. Zhou Huan understood her thoughts after a glance.Words are even lighter.

"Uh..." Zhou Yuan lowered his head and pursed his lips, "Well. Didn't you say that you will go to Dali for the National Day? So I wondered if I could do something."

He put the water in his hand on the table and got down on the sofa next to Zhou Yuan.Seeing the document that had just been printed next to the printer, he reached out and took it.The paper was still warm, and when the fingertips touched it, it was slightly warm.Zhou Huan took it in his hand, flipped through it roughly, looked at it and put it back on the spot, "It's a good job. Let's go according to the itinerary above for the National Day."

"Huh?" Zhou Yuan raised his head when he heard his father's words, and was surprised when he met his gentle eyes.It was rare for Zhou Huan to see her expression, and smiled gently, "I just made a decision with your mother yesterday, and I plan to ask you what you think. I have a general idea of ​​the itinerary but it hasn't been finalized yet. However, it seems We don’t have to worry about the itinerary now.”

Zhou Yuan understood what he meant, and nodded to show that he understood, "Well, good." His eyes fell on his father, but he found that he leaned on the sofa and rubbed his temples after talking with her. Looking tired, he couldn't help frowning.

"Why didn't Dad go to bed so late?" She looked at her tired father and asked softly, "I can't sleep because of insomnia." Zhou Huan heard her question, rubbed his temples and returned.He looked at Zhou Yuan with a gentle tone, "Have you finished what you have to do? If you haven't finished it, you can fix it tomorrow. It's getting late now, go back to sleep, and you have class tomorrow."

Zhou Yuan heard the seriousness in his last sentence, pursed his lips and asked, "What about dad?"

Zhou Huan put down his hand rubbing his temples, picked up the boiled water on the table, and took a sip, "I'll watch a movie and see if I can sleep later."

Zhou Yuan nodded, "Well, let me accompany you, anyway, I won't be able to sleep for a while." After saying that, he turned and closed the page, and opened the PPS.

"Why can't I sleep?" Zhou Huan looked at her back and frowned slightly. The older child's spine was clearly protruding under the thin pajamas, and Zhou Huan's eyebrows frowned even deeper. Okay, otherwise how do you go to class during the day?"

"It's okay, I just slept too much during the day today." Zhou Yuan scanned the screen for the latest movie, without turning his head, "What is Dad going to watch?"

My daughter still understands a little bit, and she can only give up when encountering such a moment, "Look at it, just pick one at random."

"Well, good." He didn't speak at the moment, and searched for an older movie according to his father's preferences, so the father and daughter sat on the sofa and watched it.Because he was worried that Zhou Yuan would not be able to attend class tomorrow, Zhou Huan would urge her to go back to sleep from time to time when watching movies.But Zhou Yuan just sat on the sofa with his knees in his arms, as if he would not leave until he finished reading, which made Zhou Huan feel sad besides sighing.

Speaking of it, he seems to seldom go to the movies with his youngest daughter, and only after he retired has he had the opportunity to watch movies at home.Every time Zhou Yuan chooses what suits him to watch, and he sits on the other end of the sofa by himself and reads it honestly.The attitude of filial piety is so filial, but the more so, the more sad it is to be comforted.Why……

The computer's voice was turned down very low, but without the interference of external sounds, it was still transmitted to the ears of the two of them very clearly.Zhou Yuan sat at the other end of the sofa, clasped his knees with his hands, clasped his fingers together, and intertwined his thumbs for play.The movie was coming to an end, and when I looked at my father from the corner of my eye, I found that he was always raising his hands and rubbing his temples. After thinking about it, he pursed his lips and got off the sofa, and walked behind him, "Dad, I Let me rub it for you."

The temples throbbed, and the pain was severe. When Zhou Yuan said this, he was taken aback for a moment at first, but he quickly agreed, "Well, okay."

He put his hand on his father's forehead, and using the fingering technique he had learned, he kneaded it in a decent manner.The force from the forehead relieved the slight discomfort, Zhou Huan sighed, feeling a little helpless, "When I get older, I always suffer from insomnia, and when I suffer from insomnia, I get severe headaches."

Zhou Yuan frowned slightly when he heard this, "Dad, do you often suffer from insomnia?" How come she never knew.

"No, it's just recently, I can't fall asleep for some reason," Zhou Huan paused for a while, and smiled helplessly, "Probably because the days have been too leisurely recently, hey, It’s because I’m used to being busy in the past, and I feel uncomfortable when I don’t have anything to do.”

Feeling something stuck in his throat, something heavy on his chest, Zhou Yuan pursed his lips and replied softly, "Mmm."

Zhou Huan used to be the CEO of a big company, he was as busy as a spinning top, socializing with Feifei here, spending time at home all year round is not much at all.So when I was young, Zhou Huan, as his father, couldn't remember whether Zhou Yuan was in kindergarten or elementary school.When attending the parent-teacher meeting a few years ago, Zhou Huan, who was so busy and dizzy, took the invitation card and patted himself on the forehead as if he had just woken up from a dream and said, "So Xiaoyuan is a freshman in high school."But now that he is retired and spends more time at home, people who used to wander around the world really feel very uncomfortable when they are free, and Zhou Yuan only found out about this discomfort today... I don’t know in my heart What is it like.

The movie came to an end, and the discomfort on his head gradually eased under Zhou Yuan's massage. Zhou Huan waved his hand to make Zhou Yuan stop, "Okay, I'm much better. The movie is over, Xiao Yuan, hurry up Go back to sleep."

"Okay." Zhou Yuan withdrew his hand, "Dad, go back to sleep, I will go back after turning off the computer for a while." She walked back to the original position, and then turned off the movie screen that was playing the cast list.

Zhou Huan stood up and picked up the glass of cold water, "Well, Dad is going to bed, so don't play anymore, go to sleep."

"Okay, good night." Zhou Yuan turned off the computer and said goodbye to his father.

"Good night." Zhou Huan walked out with water in his hand.Zhou Yuan, who was staring at the screen, turned his head to glance at the still tall but slightly thinner figure, pursed his lips, and then turned back to close the computer.

This relaxed person has replaced his original cool, handsome and domineering aura with gentleness, and seems to be becoming more and more kind.I feel more and more like being a grandfather or a father again... It seems that I am getting old...

Only at this moment did Zhou Yuan realize so profoundly that there is a full 36 years difference between her and her father.

53 years old, half of his life has already passed, how long can a person's life be...
