Actually, it was already very late when Qin Qiao'er finished recording the program. Coupled with the fact that she went out to have dinner with her boyfriend, it was already dawn when she got home.
She tiptoed into the house, for fear of disturbing the rest of the people at home. But when she walked into the living room, she found that the TV was still on.
What was playing was actually *Flipped*. She quietly walked in front of the sofa and found that Zhao Youting had fallen asleep on the sofa in the middle of the night.
Looking at Zhao Youting in front of her, a soft spot suddenly appeared in Qin Qiao'er's heart. She was confident that Zhao Youting must be waiting for her.
Looking at Zhao Youting's peaceful sleeping face, Qin Qiao'er felt extremely at ease, just like the feeling of coming home after working hard outside all day and knowing that there was someone waiting for her.
She was able to leave the two children at home with confidence today because she knew there was someone at home. The two children would surely be well - behaved, and she didn't need to worry so much.
Qin Qiao'er gently woke Zhao Youting up. Sleeping here would surely make him catch a cold at night, and he would feel uncomfortable when he woke up the next day.
Zhao Youting rubbed his eyes sleepily and found that Qin Qiao'er had already come back. He quickly sat up straight and said, "I originally wanted to wait for you to come back, but I was too tired and accidentally fell asleep."
"You've worked hard. You've been busy with work all day and still have to take care of the children when you get home."
"It's okay. I'm not tired. By the way, did you have dinner tonight? If not, I'll find someone to heat something up for you."
After saying that, Zhao Youting was about to get up, but Qin Qiao'er quickly stopped him and said that she had already had dinner.
Zhao Youting was visibly a bit disappointed. Qin Qiao'er smiled and said to him, "Thank you for waiting for me to come home. Go to sleep quickly."
Zhao Youting wanted to say something else, but he opened his mouth and finally said nothing. He got up and was about to go back to the bedroom.
Then he heard Qin Qiao'er call him from behind: "Don't you think... the way we are... it's like we've been an old married couple for a long time?"
Hearing what Qin Qiao'er said, Zhao Youting immediately turned his head. He didn't expect Qin Qiao'er to say such an ambiguous thing to him.
When he turned around, he saw Qin Qiao'er standing under the warm yellow light with a smiling face. The TV beside them was still playing the story of the protagonist in the movie.
For a moment, it was as if they had returned to the way they used to be. It seemed that nothing had happened, and there had never been any quarrels between them. Zhao Youting suddenly felt a bit dazed.
Then he slowly realized that what Qin Qiao'er said might be a signal of reconciliation.
He was a bit unbelievable, so he tentatively joked, "Old married couples usually sleep in the same bed."
Qin Qiao'er couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay, go to sleep quickly."
After saying that, Qin Qiao'er pushed Zhao Youting on the back and pushed him into the bedroom. She said good night with a smile, closed the door, and then returned to her own bedroom.
Their bedrooms were next to each other. They were separated by a wall, each thinking about their own things, but both had sweet smiles on their faces.
Zhao Youting didn't know why, but he felt that the relationship between them seemed to be closer. He didn't know what had happened in between. Clearly, just a moment ago, he thought their relationship was about to end, but today there seemed to be a qualitative change.
What he didn't know was that Qin Qiao'er had finally decided to face her own heart and didn't want to wrong herself anymore.
The next day was a day off. Early in the morning, Qin Qiao'er was woken up by Qin Chenchen and Qin Wanwan. They were making a fuss and wanted to go to the amusement park.
Because Qin Qiao'er had chatted with Zhao Youting for a few words last night, she had slept very soundly. She was in a very good mood when she got up today and immediately agreed to the children's request.
The two children cheered and immediately ran into Zhao Youting's study, saying they wanted Zhao Youting to go with them.
When Zhao Youting heard this, he immediately wanted to agree, but then he suddenly thought that if he went, would Qin Qiao'er feel a bit uncomfortable.
He was a bit at a loss about what to say. He looked up and just saw Qin Qiao'er standing at the door of his study, nodding slightly at him.
So Zhao Youting also agreed to the children's request. The two children cheered happily when they heard that Zhao Youting had agreed to go with them.
Then the four of them set off together on this beautiful day.
As soon as they entered the amusement park, the two children were clamoring to ride the roller - coaster. Qin Qiao'er glanced at Zhao Youting beside her and knew that he wasn't very fond of such facilities.
So she said to the two children, "Mom will go with you. Let Uncle Youting not go with you."
The two children didn't know that Zhao Youting was actually a bit scared of the roller - coaster. They hoped that the four of them could create some wonderful memories together.
"We want to go with Dad Youting..."
Zhao Youting quickly said, "I can do it. It's okay. Let's go together."
Qin Qiao'er looked at Zhao Youting worriedly. Zhao Youting turned his head and gave her a firm smile. Then he reached out and gently stroked Qin Qiao'er's hair to make her feel at ease.
After doing this, Zhao Youting was suddenly stunned. He had deliberately kept a distance from Qin Qiao'er these days for fear that she would be unhappy, but his action just now was really a subconscious one.
Maybe the atmosphere last night was really too good, and he felt that there might be no more estrangement between them.
He immediately observed Qin Qiao'er's reaction. If there was the slightest sign of unhappiness on her face, he would never do such a thing again in the future.
But Qin Qiao'er showed no reaction at all. She seemed to be very used to Zhao Youting's touch. All that was left in her eyes was worry about Zhao Youting, and there was nothing else to be seen.
At this moment, Zhao Youting seemed to suddenly gain great courage. He seemed not to be afraid of anything, and even the nervousness about riding the roller - coaster later had disappeared.
But when he got off the roller - coaster, he was immediately proven wrong. He had tightly grasped the handle on the roller - coaster, and his face was as white as a sheet when he got off. His steps were also very unsteady.
He originally wanted to show off in front of the two children, but it seemed that he still couldn't do it. Zhao Youting felt a bit regretful in his heart.
