Trajectory 2: entangled curves

What are you thinking about! The topic has gone off track. Deng Qing thought seriously: "To be honest, it's really nothing. But what I can be sure of is that there is definitely no step of officially confirming the relationship. Apart from the step of formally confessing my love, I don't even know if this can be considered as being in a relationship."

Zhuge Qinuo was almost amused: "You are such a grown-up, don't you know whether you are in a relationship or not?"

Deng Qing would not admit defeat on this point: "Don't mock me. I've told you so many times before that you are different and I have special feelings for you. If you were willing to go out with me at that time, I would definitely be sure that we were in love."

Zhuge Qinuo: "We are talking about you and her now, don't bring me into this."

Deng Qing: "I'm just telling you that relationships have very clear boundaries. Do we really want to develop into a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship? In my heart, she and I haven't reached that stage yet. We really just have more contact."

"It was after I discovered these special features of her that I became gentler and more considerate to her than before. Sometimes when I finish work early, I will take time out to go out and have fun with her. We can play video games, watch a movie, go to a concert, have a meal together, etc. It's quite comfortable to be with her. Besides, as her assistant, she can always be by my side. Even if we are photographed, the paparazzi won't suspect anything, and there won't be any rumors from other people. Life seems particularly easy this way. That's all."

Zhuge Qinuo: "That's all? In the eyes of others, isn't it just going out in pairs? This is what it means to be in love, right?"

"Besides, this kind of thing can just disappear or appear. It's easy for someone with ulterior motives to take advantage of it. Isn't it?"

"Besides, you don't think it has come to that point yet. You think there are clear boundaries in relationships. What about Assistant Liu? What does she think?"

"The rumors outside are a confirmation of your relationship to her!"

"Because you suddenly treat her well. This temptation is too great for a girl."

"Isn't it true that I haven't seduced you even though I'm so nice to you?" Deng Qing said disapprovingly, "Her words don't matter at all. Not to mention that she's been my assistant for so many years, we've had more contact than others. Even now, we've always been very disciplined. I want to enjoy this relaxed feeling for a while longer. When the time is right, I'll be sure of my feelings, and she'll naturally understand me slowly. It'll be better to bring it up then."

Zhuge Qinuo: "If you really like her, then protect her. Dating is a good thing, but if you date someone like you, once it's really made public, the pressure... It's okay if fans bless her, but if they don't bless her, or if she's being used, I don't know if she, an ordinary girl, can bear it."

Deng Qing: "I think so too, so even if I get into a relationship in the future, I won't make it public. I will try to keep a low profile."

Zhuge Qinuo: "Speaking of being low-key, I always feel like something is wrong."

Deng Qing: "See, that's right. I came to you at the height of this crisis just for this. Come on, use your smart little brain and help me analyze this."

Zhuge Qinuo: "I am serious now."

"Based on what you just said, you haven't officially confirmed your relationship, and you haven't even expressed your feelings to her."

Deng Qing: “Yes!”

Zhuge Qinuo: "The way you get along is actually very low-key and ordinary."

Deng Qing: “Yes.”

Zhuge Qinuo: "If you were low-key enough, how did they manage to take photos of you? So many times? Logically speaking, you have many ways to get away. You've been to my house so many times, and nothing happened, right?"

Deng Qing: "What you said first is correct. Take back the last sentence and stop being such a pessimist."

Zhuge Qinuo ignored him: "Okay, let's take a step back and say that you were photographed. Assistant Liu's face has never been photographed. How did they determine that it was the same person? Or how did they determine that you were in love and not dating this or that beauty? This trending search is also very strange."

Deng Qing was anxious: "How can there be such a beauty? Am I such a person? I can only say that in everyone's eyes, I have a noble character."

Zhuge Qinuo wanted to remind Deng Qing that there might be a traitor around him. She knew that he had listened and started to make jokes, so she didn't bother to say: "Yes! You are precious. You should take it easy in the future."

Deng Qing: "I will not make my relationship public. If it is set in stone on the day of marriage, I won't be afraid."

Zhuge Qinuo: "You're thinking of getting married? It seems like you're quite interested in her."

Deng Qing: "Your ability to understand..."

Zhuge Qinuo: "What?"

Deng Qing: “Bad!”

"I'm bad?" Zhuge Qinuo wanted to say something, but he only heard the sound of the door opening. It was Han Cheng and Han Xin who came back with Aunt Luo after finishing their extracurricular interest class.

"Dad Deng, Dad Deng." The youngest son shouted happily.

"Dad Deng." The eldest son called softly, a little shy in comparison.

"Dad Deng?" Aunt Luo and Zhuge Qinuo looked at each other, then glanced at Deng Qing in confusion, not knowing what to do with their facial features.

Zhuge Qinuo smiled. Fortunately, she was mentally prepared for them to call her "Dad". Otherwise, her expression would not be much better than Luo Ma's. It would definitely be as exciting as if she had eaten a fly.

"Haha, last time I came to your house for dinner, I told the two boys that next time when no one is around, they should call me Dad Deng, and I will give them very good gifts." Deng Qing explained to Zhuge Qinuo and Luo Ma.

She already knew that Deng Qing taught the child more than just this, and this was just a casual reason.

"Dad Deng, where are the gifts?" The two children came immediately and surrounded Deng Qing to ask for gifts. They also said to Zhuge Qinuo, "Mom, Dad Deng is so nice. The toys he brought us last time were amazing."

"Okay, stop making trouble. Uncle Deng," Zhuge Qinuo emphasized the title, "has been too busy recently. He came in a hurry and didn't bring any toys. I will bring you some toys next time.

The two children were a little disappointed.

Zhuge Qinuo continued: "A lot."

The kids had a light-up moment: "Yeah! Good!"

Zhuge Qinuo seized the opportunity to teach him a lesson: "Also, listen to me, you two, don't call him like that in the future. Still call him uncle, don't call him 'dad' casually. Uncle Deng will have his own children, and only his own children can call him dad. If you really think Uncle Deng is good, you can only remember him silently in your hearts. When Uncle Deng gets old, visit him more often and buy him fun toys. Especially in front of others, don't call him like that anymore, call him uncle. Otherwise, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. Go in and read a book."

Aunt Luo took her two sons back to the room and went about their business, leaving Zhuge Qinuo and Deng Qing to eat and chat.
