Lei Bin clenched his fists with both hands, and the moment he was about to smash the table, he suddenly remembered the words he had promised to Xie Shuangyu before, and withdrew his fists abruptly.

"I accept the apology." Sun Yanshi suppressed the smile on his lips, straightened his sitting posture, and said seriously and solemnly, "I also apologize to you for my previous misunderstanding, so we can talk about business."

Lei Bin realized slowly that Sun Yanshi was joking just now.He usually likes to use this method to ridicule the other party in a weird way, and it is inevitable that he thinks that Sun Yanshi is mocking himself.

"No, you have nothing to apologize for." Lei Bin took a sip of hot tea in embarrassment, put on an extremely sincere gesture, and looked at the two people in front of him, "Xiaoyu has already told me everything, you guys Don't worry, I will listen to her in everything, and I will never disturb your current life. You don't have to worry about my mother, I won't tell her for a while. But——" He rubbed his palms restlessly on his jeans, "But Xiaoyu said that if I want to visit Langyue in the future, I must obtain your consent."

Sun Yanshi was very surprised that the domineering and unruly Lei Bin obeyed Xie Shuangyu's words so much?

At this moment, he really believed Xie Shuangyu's words that Lei Bin was stiff and reserved in front of her, and he finally understood why Xie Shuangyu was so confident when he said "I won't let him bother you" that day.

Sun Yanshi didn't say a word, and gave Lang Song a piece of glutinous rice cake brought by the waiter.

Lang Song understood, took up the conversation, and calmly stated the cruel reality: "I never thought of preventing you from visiting my sister, but she may not want to see you."

Recalling the matter of taking Langyue away privately, recalling Langyue's frightened eyes, Lei Bin clenched his fists guiltily.That day when he saw Langyue fall into the dirty ditch, he didn't think too much about it at the moment, he just wanted to take the stinky little girl home and ask his mother to wash it up before sending it back.Later, he wanted to play tricks on Sun Yanshi, so he procrastinated for a while before slowly preparing to send him home.

But he didn't expect that things would be so big in the end, and he didn't expect the little girl to be scared out of her mind by him, and he didn't expect that the little girl who shyly hid when she saw him later turned out to be his own daughter.

Now regretting it too late, Lei Bin didn't defend himself, and promised in a low voice: "I won't scare her again, and I won't get close to her recklessly. Anyway, I will do what Xiao Yu said."

Lang Song felt Lei Bin's cautiousness, and since Xie Shuangyu and Lei Bin had already communicated, he said "OK" without further words.

The atmosphere was stagnant for a moment, Lei Bin raised his eyes, hesitantly asked Sun Yanshi: "Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu—"

"Speak directly if you have something to say." Sun Yanshi couldn't stand such an abnormal Lei Bin, "When did you dawdle like this?"

Lei Bin took a deep breath and endured it, and asked, "In front of you, did Xiaoyu take all the faults on herself?"

Sun Yanshi raised his eyebrows: "You know her quite well."

Lei Bin lowered his head dejectedly: "She has been oppressed and belittled by her parents since she was a child, she has never been hurt, and she always habitually takes all the faults on herself."

Sun Yanshi and Lang Song sighed silently. They couldn't empathize with each other, but they could understand that childhood trauma often cannot be healed for a lifetime.

"It was all because I was impulsive and not brainy." Lei Bin stared at the emerald green tea in the cup, and spoke in a hoarse voice. Every word seemed to have sharp horns, stuck in his throat, and it was extremely difficult to spit it out.

His mother has to be strong in everything. When he was a child, he liked to compare him with Sun Yanshi. Unknowingly, Sun Yanshi became his opponent and enemy.But he is not the material for reading, not as good as Sun Yanshi.Later, another "obscene" incident happened, he was forced to drop out of school, was laughed at by the neighbors, and made his mother lose face. Since then, he hated Sun Yanshi even more.

But as he grew up, the two had their own studies and jobs, and there were very few opportunities to meet each other. He gradually forgot that naive hostility.However, a few years later, he and Xie Shuangyu had a conflict, and accidentally saw each other's diary and the photo folder with Sun Yanshi's photo.

These two things easily brought back unpleasant memories of my youth, they were compared everywhere, suppressed invisibly, and even the person I like secretly fell in love with Sun Yanshi!

He couldn't accept this fact for a while, but he didn't want to push the conflict between the two to another level, let alone break up with Xie Shuangyu, so he left their rented room and planned to be quiet for a while.

Lei Bin sighed: "After I left, Xiaoyu called me a lot. I didn't know how to face her or what to say to her, so I turned off the phone. If, if I answer the phone..." Later Then nothing will happen.

It's a pity that there are no ifs and ifs in life. When he was partying with friends, he ran into the gangster who stopped Xie Shuangyu in an alley for molestation.His temper was already hot, and under the stimulation of alcohol, the provocation of the other party, and the instigation of friends, he lost his mind and scuffled with the other party.

When the bright red blood gushed out from the opponent's abdomen, he held the handle of the knife and his limbs were cold. He knew that his life was over...

In the prison, he was so desperate that he didn't have the face to tell Xie Shuangyu to wait for him to go out, so he made up his mind to tell the other party not to come to him again.

What he didn't know was that Xie Shuangyu was already pregnant with a child at that time, endured alone for three months, and abandoned the child when he was desperate...

Last night, he thought hard all night.

He thought that Xie Shuangyu must hate him.

When he first moved into the rental house, he once promised boldly: "We will move into a big house in the future, we will have a son and a daughter, and we will be very happy."

But his incompetence, evasion, and impulsiveness completely ruined Xie Shuangyu's life, and also ruined their supposedly happy life.

Later, he twisted his mind and blamed Sun Yanshi for all these mistakes, and felt worthless for Xie Shuangyu, because the person she had been secretly in love with for many years was actually gay.

Lei Bin raised his depressed and drooping head: "In short, everything today is caused by me. I was naive, impulsive, and unable to control the swelling jealousy, which caused today's situation."

In this small tea room, Sun Yanshi heard the story from Lei Bin's perspective, which combined with Xie Shuangyu's narration that day to form a complete past.

He was full of emotions in his heart, but he didn't want to express any opinions on other people's feelings, and he had no position to express opinions. He himself had just walked out of a mess.

Fortunately, Lei Bin just wanted to confide, and he didn't need anyone to criticize him.

The two sides expressed their apologies to each other, and talked about what should be talked about. After the talk, they left the tea room and parted ways.

The mystery of Lang Yue's life experience was completely revealed, and Sun Yanshi and Lang Song were relieved and grateful for the result.

Fortunately, the dispute that should have been resolved peacefully, and fortunately Lang Yue still stayed by their side.

When he got home, Lang Song called Huaqiang to explain the ins and outs. Huaqiang sighed on the phone and finally told him to do a paternity test.

Sun Yanshi also called Zheng Ye. Rather than being shocked, Zheng Ye was more unwilling and shouted on the other end of the phone: "Why? Why hasn't Lei Bin changed his diaper or fed him? Suddenly there is a beautiful and well-behaved daughter?"

In the evening, Sun Yanshi received the third call from Xie Shuangyu today.

Tomorrow is Saturday, and they agreed to have lunch together.At first Xie Shuangyu decided to eat Japanese food, but later she felt that Langyue would not like it, so she changed to Western food, but she also felt that the atmosphere of the Western restaurant was too formal and not suitable for chatting, so she called Sun Yanshi to ask Sun Yanshi what good idea he had.

Sun Yanshi knew that Xie Shuangyu was anxious about the official meeting with Langyue tomorrow, so he thought about it carefully and suggested: "Why don't you come to my house for dinner tomorrow, and I'll call Zheng Ye's family of three, do you think it's okay?" ?” He thought, being at home can make people relax wholeheartedly, and with two or three friends to accompany them, even if they just drink a cup of tea silently, they won’t feel embarrassed.

Xie Shuangyu readily agreed, saying that she knew how to make some Japanese dishes, and she would bring some seafood over tomorrow.

The next day, Xie Shuangyu arrived before Zheng Ye's family.

Sun Yanshi received the call and went to pick up people outside the community. He was dumbfounded when he saw the large and small packages of gifts at Xie Shuangyu's feet.

Xie Shuangyu also felt a little exaggerated, so she smiled shyly: "I don't know what Xiao Yueyue likes, so I bought some of them."

"Why didn't Lei Bin come?" Sun Yanshi asked as he picked up his things.

Xie Shuangyu shook a teddy bear in his hand, and replied: "She was afraid of scaring Xiao Yueyue, so she bought a gift for me to send, saying that she would go to see her in kindergarten when Yueyue starts school."

Sun Yanshi snorted, guessing that Lei Bin would probably be like him some time ago, hiding in the dark and secretly watching Lang Yue do exercises.

The two went upstairs and opened the door, and Lang Song and Lang Yue greeted them at the entrance.

When Langyue saw Xie Shuangyu, she was stunned for a moment. She put the new slippers she took out from the shoe cabinet in front of Xie Shuangyu, and immediately hid behind her brother, poking her head out to look at him quietly.

Lang Song stroked Lang Yue's hair, and explained to Xie Shuangyu: "She was a little shy when she saw you for the first time."

Xie Shuangyu was already stunned, and the emotion in his eyes almost flowed out.Compared with when she was a baby, Langyue's facial features have opened up, her eyes are round and bright, her nose bridge is high, her lips are full, and she has grown from a delicate baby to a beautiful little girl.She wanted to touch Langyue's white and tender cheeks, but she stretched out her hand and timidly withdrew it back.

Lang Yue grabbed Lang Song's pants, took a step forward with her brother's encouragement, and called Xie Shuangyu in a child's shy and soft voice: "Auntie."

"Hello, Xiao Yueyue." Xie Shuangyu replied softly.She squatted down, hugged Langyue's small body restrainedly, put her chin on Langyue's shoulder, tears were already rolling down quietly.

Langyue is originally a cheerful and lively character, and the beautiful aunt in her eyes bought her a lot of gifts. After experiencing the initial shyness, she completely let go of her temper.

Xie Shuangyu tentatively talked to Lang Yue and asked her what book she was reading.

Langyue knelt on the carpet, held up the children's cartoon in her hand, and answered every word.Afraid that she couldn't pronounce well, she didn't speak clearly, so she pursed her lips shyly, and repeated it patiently.

Seeing that Xie Shuangyu seemed very interested, Langyue turned back to the first page and slowly told Xie Shuangyu the stories depicted in the comics.

Xie Shuangyu sat on the sofa at first, then quietly moved to the carpet and sat beside Lang Yue.

Langyue looked up at Xie Shuangyu, moved closer to her, moved the comic book in front of her, pointed to the rabbit on the book, and said, "Auntie, it likes carrots."

Xie Shuangyu felt her heart was about to jump out. She felt Langyue's warm body temperature. Encouraged by Sun Yanshi's eyes, she carefully put her arms around Langyue, pointed to the elephant in the comic book, and asked softly: "What about the elephant?" What about the elephant, what does it like?"

Langyue pointed at the bananas on the tea table, and said crisply, "Bananas!"

The pronunciation of this word was very accurate, and Sun Yanshi, who was sitting on the side, applauded lightly and praised: "Yueyue is great!"

Xie Shuangyu realized later that Sun Yanshi was encouraging Lang Yue's enthusiasm for learning, and applauded accordingly.She withdrew her hand, looked at Sun Yanshi, and said gratefully, "Thank you."

"Her parents and elder brother are credited," said Sun Yanshi, "for raising her to be the cutest child in the world."

Xie Shuangyu nodded, looked at Langyue tenderly, and stroked Langyue's hair: "I am very grateful to them."

Not long after, Zheng Ye's family came, and the house became lively.Sun Yanshi let them play in the living room, and went to the kitchen to help Lang Song.

Lang Song and Xie Shuangyu took turns working in the kitchen, serving Chinese and Japanese delicacies on the table.

After lunch happily, everyone moved to the balcony to bask in the sun and chat.

Gan Tiantian and Xie Shuangyu sat next to each other, drinking fruit juice and chatting about everything from parenting experience to clothes and the workplace.

Lang Yue and Chuan Chuan sat on the climbing mat and played with building blocks, while Huang Dou lay lazily on his stomach, taking on the responsibility of taking care of the children.

In the other corner of the balcony, three big men set up a small table to play against landlords. Zheng Ye lost three games in a row, and said indignantly, "Lang Song, why do you keep pouring water on him? Your family bullies me, an outsider, right?"

Sun Yanshi fought against the injustice: "Be reasonable, just now you are the landlord, and we beat you."

Lang Song smiled, picked up the empty teapot on the table, and said, "I'm going to make a pot of tea."

"I'll go." Sun Yanshi pushed Lang Song back, entered the room with the glass teapot, and walked to the kitchen.

While waiting for the water to boil, he leaned against the wall and quietly stared at his family and friends on the balcony.This scene is very familiar. A few months ago, in Lanying Alley, there was also a large table of people sitting together, eating and chatting.

Zheng Ye walked over and leaned against the wall side by side with Sun Yanshi, asking, "You have such a deep expression, what are you thinking?"

Sun Yanshi laughed and snorted: "I was thinking, after going through the trough of life, I love life more than before."
