Chapter 3 – Each one takes what he needs

Cheng Yun was a little at a loss after listening. He didn’t expect Yi Zhenghua to apologize to him. It was obviously the Yi family who helped the Cheng family, so he married him. To be clear, the two are in a relationship of interest.

“There is no need to apologize… We… originally… took what we needed ah.” Cheng Yun looked up to Yi Zhenghua, pursed the corners of his lips, and then lowered his head.

To be honest, he didn’t want Yi Zhenghua to apologize or whatever. He had already thought about this matter. Regardless of what the Yi family’s reason is, he personally agreed to the Cheng family.

When he agreed, he should bear the result.

Yi Zhenghua raised his eyebrows when he heard the child’s words. He was a little surprised. He knew that he helped the Cheng family, but he also felt that he should apologize only because Cheng Yun had just become an adult. Cheng Yun also looks very small. When he looked at him with round eyes, he always remembered that he was just a child. Cheng Yun was only 18 years old, and he married him, a 32-year-old man, and he thought he was morally wrong. Now it seems that he had been thinking too much.

Yi Zhenghua tapped his finger on the tabletop: “Cheng Yun, you are right. But now that we are married, we have to clarify some things.”

When Cheng Yun saw Yi Zhenghua’s seriousness, his heart suddenly became nervous.

“First, let me tell you about the situation of our relatives on my family side, my mother… the second uncle and the second aunt… their child Yi Zhengzi.” Yi Zhenghua watched Cheng Yun listen to him carefully with his round eyes open. He wanted to rub his hair again. Speaking of it, his hair was quite soft, “I don’t have many family members, so I will take you to meet them later.”

Cheng Yun nodded obediently, “Okay.”

“My mother wants to pick a time to announce our marriage. After the announcement, there will be some parties that need to be attended… I will discuss this matter with her again. As you said, we got married just to take what we need, but this only needs to be known by the two of us, did my mother tell you about us living together?”

“Yes.” Cheng Yun nodded.

When Yi Zhenghua said this, his fingers continued to tap the tabletop, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: “Usually we live separately and then live together in special circumstances, is that okay?”

“Special… circumstances…” Cheng Yun stared at Yi Zhenghua with his round eyes and somewhat did not understand, what these special circumstances are.

Yi Zhenghua hummed and added: “For example, my mother is coming to stay at our house or us going back to the old house. We have to stay in one room. “

Cheng Yun thought of two people staying in one room, and the tips of his ears became a little red, still, he nodded.

Yi Zhenghua looked at the child’s well-behaved appearance, and still couldn’t hold back, so, he rubbed his hair: “Well, that’s all, do you have anything to say?”

Cheng Yun thought for a while but got nothing to say, so he shook his head.

The waiter came in and started to lay out the dishes, and then stepped back.

Everything that should have been said before the meal had been already made clear, so the two of them ate quietly.

Today, Yi Zhenghua had a good impression of Cheng Yun, and Cheng Yun also had a good impression of Yi Zhenghua.

After dinner, Cheng Yun was sent home. When Cheng Yun was getting out of the car, Yi Zhenghua asked, “Is it possible for you to move in tomorrow?”

“Yes,” Cheng Yun replied before closing the car door.

Yi Zhenghua smiled, “Then I will pick you up tomorrow.”

Cheng Yun nodded and said goodbye to Yi Zhenghua.

After Cheng Yun left, Yi Zhenghua and Liang Yuan were left in the car. Yi Zhenghua knew that Liang Yuan was wondering. He just said: “Push back my recent social appointments, and if someone asked, say that I’m with my wife at home.”

Liang Yuan looked at Yi Zhenghua in the driving mirror and asked: “To announce your marriage?”

Yi Zhenghua rubbed his brow, “No need to deliberately announce or conceal ……”

Yi Zhenghua knew that this matter could not be hidden. Many people know that his mother gave him a blind date. At best, this is a secret to the media. While people in their circle must have already known it.

“Yes.”

…

After Cheng Yun returned home, he found that there were quite a few people in the family today, including the unusual Cheng Xuan. Cheng Xuan was his half-brother and Li Hui’s biological son. The relationship between the two was not too bad, but not very close either.

After Cheng Yun came in, the eyes of the three people in the living room fell on him. He smiled and walked to the single sofa at the side.

In the living room, only the occasional voices that came from the TV can be heard, and no one was speaking. Li Hui glanced at others, and set her eyes on Cheng Yun, and asked, “Have you eaten? There’s lunch left for you in the kitchen. I’ll go warm it up for you ……”

“Mom, there’s no need to warm it up. I already ate.” After Cheng Yun sat down on the sofa, he stretched out his body on the sofa to make himself more comfortable. He could feel that the atmosphere at home was quite not right. His parents always feel that they owed him for this matter and want to make up for him by doing different things. They seem to speak and act with some tentativeness.

The main reason was that Cheng Yun agreed to this matter too quickly, and both Cheng Honghe and Li Hui were a little worried.

Li Hui looked at her husband and son that was next to her and found that the faces of the two were gloomier than one another. Her husband felt sorry for his son, while that stinky brat purely put on a face, and really does not know what to do.

Li Hui sat back on the sofa and asked with a smile, “Have you got the certificate?”

Cheng Yun nodded and gave a soft hmm.

“Yun Yun, how are you guys getting along today….?”

Cheng Yun thought for a while and said: “It’s good.”

His act of thinking for a while appeared to the couple as if Cheng Yun was embarrassed and afraid that his parents would worry. They felt even more sorry for their son.

Cheng Yun didn’t lie. He recalled how he got along with Yi Zhenghua today and felt that the two of them did get along pretty well.

Li Hui glanced at her silent husband who was sitting next to her, “Really?”

Cheng Xuan rolled his eyes at the side and snorted.

Li Hui kicked Cheng Xuan directly, humming, and daring to roll his eyes?

Cheng Xuan curled his lips; his mother was so biased. She was biased when he was young, and now she still hadn’t changed, she is still biased.

“Dad, Mom, Yi… Yi Zhenghua said that I will move in tomorrow, and he will pick me up tomorrow.”

“Is it so urgent?” Li Hui was a little surprised at them, living together so soon.

Cheng Yun lowered his head, “I will start school soon, and I won’t have time to move afterward…”

The three people did not speak.

Cheng Yun thought about it, and said, “Dad, Mom, don’t think I’m impulsive to said yes, and don’t feel sorry for me, maybe this is actually a good marriage ……” At this point, he also smiled, his parents always felt a little sorry for him, but he actually felt nothing, it was his choice, and Yi Zhenghua and his family were also quite good, thinking of the relationship between the two, the corners of his eyebrows and eyes smiled.

This smile made Cheng Honghe and his wife frown.

After finishing what should be said, Cheng Yun said that he was tired and went back to his bedroom.

If he wants to move, he doesn’t need to take many things, and it’s too late to pack tomorrow. After he returned to the bedroom, he found his mobile phone, laid on the bed, took a pillow, placed it under his chin, and unlocked his mobile phone. He found Yi Zhenghua’s number, then entered WeChat and searched for his mobile phone number.

Yi Zhenghua’s avatar was a handwritten word ‘Yi’ with a beautiful font. His WeChat name was simple pinyin, ‘Yi’.

After Cheng Yun commented on his information, he sent a verification request. He thought he would have to wait to pass. He was about to put down his phone, but he didn’t expect it to ring shortly after, and it was a verification alert.

Cheng Yun clicked on Yi Zhenghua’s chat page, wanted to say something, but didn’t know what to say, switched to the information page, poke a little bit, and changed Yi Zhenghua’s name to ‘Mr. Yi’.

He looked at the two words of Mr. Yi and suddenly became happy.

Cheng Yun didn’t know that the name Yi Zhenghua gave him was ‘Child’. If he knew it, he would definitely be very unconvinced. He is 18 years old; how can he still be a child?

He had been typing and then deleting on the chat page for a long time, and he didn’t know what to send. When he was about to type again, he received a message from Yi Zhenghua, which was an emoticon.

Mr. Yi: Touching his head jpg. [1]

The stupid rabbit squinted comfortably under the touch.

Cheng Yun looked at this emoticon and thought about being touched twice today and remembered the feeling of being touched. The tips of his ears became a little red. He always felt that this action was a bit intimate. He was touched by his father when he was young, and he had not been touched for many years.
