806: Chapter 802: Stay Behind 806: Chapter 802: Stay Behind After waiting for about ten minutes, Zhang Xueying erged from the kitchen, carrying several bowls of fragrant dishes.
“Chen Yang, sorry to keep you waiting.
I got off work a bit late today, which delayed things,” Zhang Xueying said apologetically.
“No problem, it was just a short wait.” Chen Yang smiled faintly, not minding the small matter.
As he looked at the slightly exhausted Zhang Xueying, a trace of empathy flashed in his eyes.
Knowing it was just the two of them tonight, Chen Yang stood up and directly embraced Zhang Xueying.
Zhang Xueying, startled by Chen Yang’s sudden hug, froze for a mont.
“You’ve worked hard, Xueying.”
Before she could react, Chen Yang leaned in and whispered in her ear.
Zhang Xueying felt as if she were lting on the spot, and her entire body leaned into Chen Yang’s arms.
“It’s not hard, Chen Yang.
It’s just a al—no big deal,” Zhang Xueying said, moved.
Chen Yang knew he had been too busy lately, neglecting Zhang Xueying and Xiaoxiao, and hadn’t visited for quite so ti.
Feeling guilty, he held Zhang Xueying in his arms for quite a while.
Once Zhang Xueying had composed herself, the two finally let go of each other.
“Chen Yang, let’s eat now.
The food will get cold, and it won’t taste as good,” Zhang Xueying said.
“Alright, let’s eat first.”
Chen Yang nodded and led Zhang Xueying to sit at the dining table together.
Zhang Xueying initially planned to sit beside Chen Yang, but he gently tugged her, indicating for her to sit on his lap.
Her cheeks turned bright red instantly.
Although their relationship had reached that level, their ti together had still been scarce.
That was why Zhang Xueying felt shy.
Nonetheless, despite her embarrassnt, she didn’t hesitate and settled onto his lap, leaning into Chen Yang’s embrace.
Thinking about it, it had been quite so ti since they last spent ti together, so they had plenty to talk about.
During the al, Chen Yang talked a lot about Xiaoxiao’s recent activities.
As Xiaoxiao ca up, Zhang Xueying also had much to share.
She updated Chen Yang on Xiaoxiao’s current situation.
Finding out that Xiaoxiao was doing well and enjoying school brought Chen Yang so peace of mind.
“As long as she’s happy.
If there’s any issue at school, you can co to anyti.
I’ve been pretty busy recently and have neglected you both.
Sorry, Xueying,” Chen Yang said with unexpected tenderness, apologizing for his oversight.
Hearing this, Zhang Xueying was overco by emotion.
She knew how busy Chen Yang was and never blad him.
But now, with Chen Yang explicitly apologizing for it, didn’t that prove she had always held a place in his heart—and an important one at that?
Overwheld, she couldn’t help feeling deeply moved.
“I know you’re busy, Chen Yang.
I don’t bla you.
As long as you keep Xiaoxiao and in your heart, that’s enough for ,” Zhang Xueying said as she leaned close to Chen Yang.
“Hmm.”
With that, Chen Yang humd softly, put down his utensils, and held her tightly.
The two enjoyed a mont of intimacy before Zhang Xueying suddenly looked up at Chen Yang and said, “By the way, Chen Yang, I asked you here today because I need a favor from you.”
“What is it?”
Chen Yang imdiately asked back.
“Well…
Xiaoxiao’s school is holding a parent-teacher eting tomorrow, and I wanted you to go with ,” Zhang Xueying replied.
“A parent-teacher eting?
Sure, let’s go together tomorrow,” Chen Yang agreed without hesitation.
Xiaoxiao’s parent-teacher eting was indeed a significant matter.
“Thank you, Chen Yang.” Seeing his decisive agreent, Zhang Xueying’s face lit up with a big smile.
Chen Yang smiled faintly in response and said no more.
The two carried on eating.
Their tender mont thoroughly opened up their communication.
During the al, they truly felt like a couple at ho, chatting about their child while eating.
Ti flew by as they ate and talked.
As the night grew late, Zhang Xueying hesitated for a while before finally deciding to speak up, biting her lip.
“Chen Yang, how about you don’t go back tonight?
Stay here and sleep, and we can go together to Xiaoxiao’s school tomorrow.
What do you think?”
Having said that, she blushed deeply and lowered her head.
She had brought this up many tis in the past, but each ti, they hadn’t followed through.
After asking so many tis, as a woman, this naturally made her feel very embarrassed.
Looking at the shy blush on Zhang Xueying’s face, Chen Yang couldn’t help but feel a surge of warmth in his heart.
“Alright, I won’t leave tonight,” Chen Yang answered firmly.
Hearing Chen Yang agree, Zhang Xueying froze for a few seconds before her face lit up with joy.
She then rested once more in Chen Yang’s embrace…
Soon, morning ca.
Chen Yang woke up at Zhang Xueying’s place and decided not to leave.
Instead, he freshened up and had breakfast there.
Afterward, the two drove together from the clinic, heading to Xiaoxiao’s parent-teacher eting.
After the events of the previous night, Zhang Xueying’s deanor had noticeably changed today.
Her face was glowing with happiness, and she seed several years younger.
No one could tell she was a young mother.
“Xueying, wait for in the car for a bit.
I’ll go in and change—it wouldn’t be proper to go like this,” Chen Yang said as they reached the clinic’s entrance and opened the car door.
Zhang Xueying glanced at Chen Yang, not finding anything wrong with his attire.
But she smiled and nodded anyway.
“Alright, I’ll wait for you, Chen Yang.”
With that, she got into the car as Chen Yang nodded slightly before unlocking the house and stepping inside.
Chen Yang didn’t think his outfit was inappropriate either; he simply preferred to change into sothing clean.
At the sa ti, he wanted to check on Brother Eagle and Wangcai in the backyard.
After changing his clothes in the bedroom, he headed to the backyard.
Brother Eagle was still crouched in its nest.
Upon hearing Chen Yang call, it swiftly erged, landing sharply on the peach tree beside him.
Seeing Brother Eagle grow increasingly fierce and robust, Chen Yang’s eyes sparkled with contentnt.
Having such a formidable creature at ho gave him peace of mind while away.
“Wangcai.”
After dealing with Brother Eagle, Chen Yang turned to Wangcai’s doghouse and called out.
Wangcai remained as lethargic as ever, looking frail like a creature perpetually under the weather.
Although Chen Yang had sowhat gotten used to its appearance, comparing it to Brother Eagle, the disparity was hard to ignore.
“What’s the matter with you, huh?
Always so listless during the day.”
Chen Yang almost felt like kicking Wangcai but decided against it.
“Here, one for each of you!
Eat these and stay here during my outing.
Take care of the house.”
Chen Yang pulled out two Body Refinent Elixirs, tossing them to Brother Eagle and Wangcai.
