Shengzhou has fully entered summer. The camphor trees in the Fu family's yard are lush and emit a pleasant fragrance.

Fu Runing hasn't even gone out recently. She just stays at home. Sometimes her father gets annoyed with her and asks her to go out for a walk, but she just refuses.

At this moment, the father and daughter were sitting under the camphor tree, discussing how to make an outdoor cat bed for the cat.

Ever since Xiao Si, Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu came to their house, there have always been stray cats coming into their house. They have raised the fence of the villa again and again with barbed wire, but how can this keep out the cats?

There are always stray cats that sneak into their house in the middle of the night. Recently, Xiaoliuda has been howling all night. After watching the surveillance video, they found out that there are always cat fights in their house at night.

Fu Runing drew a rough sketch, and Fu Zhangnan modified the drawing based on hers. The father and daughter both had strong execution ability. It only took them an entire afternoon to decide on the wooden boards and find people to help. By the evening, an outdoor cat house was almost complete and was placed next to the gate of the villa to provide a shelter for stray cats that had managed to climb in from outside.

Fu Runing looked at the two people's masterpieces, and pride was revealed in her tone.

"Dad, look, this will work. If we put cat food and water in the house, the cats won't come into the house and fight with Xiaoliu and the others. They can stay in the yard and guard our house. Once they get familiar with the house, we can catch them and sterilize them to reduce the number of stray cats."

Fu Zhangnan looked at her with a doting look, "These are strange ideas that only you can come up with, but they are also very constructive."

Fu Runing smiled with satisfaction.

Only her father was willing to accompany her in doing this. If it were her second uncle, he would just say that the father and daughter were bored because they had nothing to do after eating.

But Dad never thought her behavior was boring, it has been like this since she was a child.

As long as she asks for it, Dad will find a way to do it, and will try his best to do it if he can't.

When she was a child, there was a paper airplane competition in school. The competition was to see who could make the highest and farthest flying paper airplane. But she could only draw beautifully on the paper airplanes, but they didn't fly high or far, and were just fancy airplanes. So she didn't win any awards.

Seeing that she was depressed, her father asked her the reason.

Then her father told her that she had to learn math, physics and chemistry well, but he did not teach her any knowledge points. Instead, he spent several days making an airplane model, and then spent some more time to modify the model so that it could take off.

Fu Runing danced with joy. At that time, in her eyes, her father was omnipotent.

Not even omnipotent, but almighty.

The sky gradually darkened, and the sunset burned half of the sky red. Tomorrow would probably be another sunny day.

The sound of a car engine was heard outside the villa. The person returning home at this time was probably Xiao Jingting.

Fu Zhangnan looked at his daughter and suddenly asked, "Ningning, what are you and A Zheng planning?"

The retractable door of the villa opened automatically to both sides, and the car that drove into the yard was Xiao Jingting's car.

Fu Runing shook her head. "I don't have any plans. Let's take it one step at a time."

Dad is not a fool. Just because he doesn’t ask doesn’t mean he doesn’t know.

It was estimated that the whole family had known for a long time that Xiao Jingting had been staying at her house every night a while ago, but she herself thought she had kept it a secret.

But they don't expose this relationship to avoid embarrassing the children.

Recently, because his father was sick, everyone tacitly agreed that Xiao Jingting lived at home. He had breakfast in the morning, dishes to eat in the evening, and even someone washed his clothes.

It was just like when he was still Fu Zheng and they were still a family living together.

Fu Runing smiled and looked at Fu Zhangnan, then said, "Dad, didn't you tell me before that when you don't know how to go on, just keep moving forward. As long as you keep moving forward, you will always know where the road is."

The most frightening thing is to stand still.

Fu Zhangnan also chuckled, "Ningning, I always thought you were very brave, and I'm very proud of that."

Fu Runing supported her chin with both hands, posed like a flower, and blinked at him.

"Then tell me, how am I brave?"

Fu Zhangnan said: "If it were someone else, it would be absolutely impossible for them to get so close to their ex-husband after divorce. Many people never talk to each other again until they die."

If it were before, Fu Runing might have said that he brought it upon himself, or put the blame on his family.

For example, this is my father’s adopted son, isn’t he also my older brother?

For example, her second uncle always sided with her, and she couldn't stop him.

But in fact, she never stopped it.

Fu Runing blinked, "Why think so much? If I don't want to be with him anymore, I can just drive him away. If I want to be with him again, I can just let him stay here. We're divorced anyway, so what's there to be afraid of?"

Fu Zhangnan asked, "Aren't you afraid of repeating the same mistakes?"

Fu Runing watched the man park his car not far away and get out.

From a distance that was neither too close nor too far, both father and daughter's eyes fell on that person.

Fu Runing said coquettishly, "Afraid? If I'm afraid, I'm not myself anymore."

Fu Zhangnan just smiled and said nothing.

It turns out that this is his personality, it hasn't changed at all.

She just doesn't dare to start at the moment, but that doesn't mean she is afraid of the consequences.

Fu Zhangnan had something to say, but he didn't say it in the end.

You have raised a child for five years, don’t you know what kind of character he has?

Even if he made a mistake, he felt that Ning Ning would not make the same mistake.

Why should we be suspicious because of some groundless rumors?

Fu Zhangnan also knew that the reason for their divorce was definitely not that Jing Ting had an affair outside, but that they were simply not suitable to be together at that stage.

While the father and daughter were talking, Xiao Jingting had already walked over.

He greeted Fu Zhangnan first: "Dad."

Fu Zhangnan nodded. "You came back quite early today."

Xiao Jingting said calmly: "If we are any later, there will be a traffic jam."

After saying that, his gaze shifted to Fu Runing standing beside him. She was dressed casually at home, a beige top paired with loose wide-leg pants, and her hair was tied up with a hairpin. It was obvious that she had not left the house all day.

Fu Runing saw him looking at her and she touched her face.

Why are you looking at her?

She remembered that she should have washed her face today.

Xiao Jingting retracted his gaze and said in a light voice: "I'll go see if Second Aunt wants help in the kitchen today."

Fu Runing stopped him and said, "Auntie is cooking today, so don't go. Go over to this cat house and see how to connect the circuit."

Xiao Jingting followed her gaze and noticed it when he first came in. It was a wooden house of a little over three square meters, with an area reserved in the middle, probably for installing glass windows. There was also a door on the ground that had not been put in.

He thought about it and realized that this was probably what Fu Runing mentioned two days ago about building a house for the stray cats outside.

Xiao Jingting's eyes were filled with interest, and he asked casually, "Aren't Xiaoliu and the others jealous?"

Fu Runing glanced at Xiaoliu who was squatting on the tree. He had climbed so high, and no one knew what he was looking at. His tail was hanging down and swaying, and he looked very free and easy.

She laughed and said, "How could Xiaoliu be jealous? If he got jealous just because I was nice to someone, wouldn't he be so angry that he would die?"

"I have to be jealous of Duoduo, I have to be jealous of Luoluo, I have to be jealous of my father and my second uncle and second aunt, and then I don't have to do anything else all day long but be jealous."

Hearing this, Fu Zhangnan curled his lips calmly.

Xiao Jingting raised his eyebrows. What he said...

Why does it feel like it’s not just about Xiaoliu?

Before he could think about it, Fu Runing arranged for him to go and see how the cat house was designed.

Xiao Jingting and his father are both science and engineering men, so designing a circuit is a piece of cake for them.

So three days later, when the customized doors and glass windows arrived, the cat house was completely built.

It is also equipped with an air conditioner with a fresh air system, an automatic feeder, and surveillance cameras. There is also an induction light strip installed outside the cat house, which will automatically light up when it gets dark.

Fu Runing also hung a string of wind chimes at the door.

Xu Luo looked at such a beautiful little house and couldn't help but praise: "Grandpa is amazing, and Uncle Jingting is also amazing."

Fu Runing touched Xu Luo's head and asked unconvincedly, "What about me? How am I not amazing? This idea was my own!"

Xu Luo pulled Fu Runing's arm and smiled shyly. She made a trumpet shape with her hand and said, "Ningning's mother is the best."

Fu Runing's mouth curled up, "That's pretty good."

"Will there be more small animals at home in the future? Will Duoduo have new friends?"

Xu Luo stayed in the Fu family for a while. She became much more cheerful from the introverted little girl before, and now she talks more.

Fu Runing felt very relieved about this change.

She stroked Xu Luo's head gently and explained, "Some of the kittens outside don't want to be trapped in such a small place. They are used to being free, so we don't force them to come home and lock them up. When they come to play at home, we just watch them. This is also good."

Xu Luo didn’t understand why some kittens didn’t want to be locked up, but she knew that there would be more kittens growing in this beautiful little house in the future.

In the yard, the family is having a great time.

There are old and young people, and the picture is harmonious.

Inside the house, Wen Lan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scene outside, covering his face with his hands, unable to control his emotions.

Not to mention Ningning couldn't stand it, she couldn't stand it either.

In fact, Fu Zhangnan has always been the backbone of their family. The two brothers of the Fu family are one active and the other quiet, one impetuous and the other calm, but they help each other and can overcome any difficulties no matter how big they are.

Now they are asked to accept that there is one less person in the family, or even count the days, which is difficult for anyone to accept.

All I can say is that we should enjoy the happy time we have now, one day at a time, one second at a time.

……

In the evening, the cool breeze in the yard in summer can dispel the boredom of the day.

Fu Zhangnan found a random excuse to send his daughter away, leaving only Xiao Jingting.

Fu Runing didn't say anything, but took the sleepy Xu Luo away and let the child go to bed early.

Only Fu Zhangnan and Xiao Jingting were left under the tree in the yard.

Fu Zhangnan broke the silence of the night and said, "A Zheng, do you blame me for insisting on your divorce?"

Xiao Jingting was speechless, then shook his head.

"That's my fault."

Ever since he and Fu Runing divorced, everyone had tacitly agreed not to mention the matter, as if they were maintaining a state of balance. If he wanted to come home, they would let him come, and no one would say bad things to him and drive him away.

Fu Zhangnan didn't blame him, but said calmly, "A Zheng, people's cognition is limited at certain stages. It's not that you're bad, but you're stuck in that stage and can't figure out what's next. You're still young and have a long life ahead of you. When you look back, you might think these things are nothing."

"Ningning is the same, but she is my daughter, so I'm sure all my heart goes towards her."

Hearing this, Xiao Jingting nodded slightly to express his affirmation.

If he had a daughter like Fu Runing, he would also favor her over everyone else.

Xiao Jingting made a promise in a deep voice: "Dad, I will take good care of the family in the future. No matter what Ning Ning treats me as, I am willing."
