Arranged marriage, love blossoms: Marrying into a wealthy family while holding a miniature version o

As the night deepened, the lights outside grew brighter, and the small town became increasingly lively.

It's past eight.

Zhou Yi and Aunt Dong gave the little one a bath, dressed him and put on a diaper. Zhou Yi then carried the little one to the bedroom and said to Aunt Dong, "Aunt Dong, I'll stay with Yu Yu to sleep first."

"I'll go out after Yuyu falls asleep."

Aunt Dong was unfolding the little one's blanket when she heard Zhou Yi's words and looked up: "Miss Zhou, are you going out?"

Are you going to the hospital to see Grandma?

"No, I'm going to my brother's place. He installed a security camera at home today. I haven't had time to go home and check it since I'm back, so I'm going to ask him about it now that he's here."

"So that's it."

"Then the young master will fall asleep, and I will stay here to watch over him. Miss Zhou, you can go ahead."

"it is good."

"Aunt Dong, you go and rest for a while. I'll come out after Yuyu falls asleep."

"Ok."

Without saying anything more, Aunt Dong unfolded the small blanket, placed it on the bed, and went out.

Zhou Yi put the little one on the bed, covered him with a small blanket, and then lay down next to him.

Normally, the little guy would immediately snuggle into Zhou Yi's arms as soon as he saw Zhou Yi lie down.

But now, lying in bed, looking at Zhou Yi, his bright black eyes showed no sign of sleepiness: "Ya ya~ ya ya~"

He was talking to Zhou Yi.

Judging from his expression, Zhou Yi could tell that he had overheard what she had just said to Aunt Dong.

Zhou Yi hugged him and said with a smile, "Yu Yu, Aunt Zhou Yi won't be going to the hospital tonight, but I have to go to my brother's place. It won't be long, at most an hour or two, and I'll be back."

"You go to sleep first. Aunt Dong will stay here with you after you fall asleep. When Aunt Zhou Yi comes back, she will sleep with you, okay?"

Zhou Yi told the little guy everything, without hiding anything.

The little one blinked and said, "Ya ya~ ya ya~"

It's as if it's saying: Okay~ Okay~

Zhou Yi smiled, bent down and kissed the little guy on the forehead, and said, "Auntie Zhou Yi turned off the light, okay?"

The little one said, "Ya ya~ ya ya~"

Zhou Yi turned off the light, then hugged the little guy, gently patted his back, and said softly, "Time for bed, Yu Yu~"

The little one listened to her words, snuggled closer to her, yawned, grabbed Zhou Yi's clothes, and closed his eyes.

Zhou Yi listened to the sounds in her arms and gently patted the little one until she heard soft, gentle breathing from inside her.

She didn't get out of bed immediately. Instead, she waited until the little one was sound asleep before getting up, uncovering the blanket, covering the little one up, and then tiptoeing out of the bedroom.

Aunt Dong was looking at her phone in the living room, waiting for Zhou Yi. When she heard the sound, she looked over and asked, "Miss Zhou, is the young master asleep?"

"Yes, I'm asleep."

"Aunt Dong, I'll leave Yu Yu here for now. I'm going out now."

"Ok."

Zhou Yi picked up the canvas bag from the sofa, took out her phone to check the time, and said, "Aunt Dong, call me if you need anything. I should be on the eleventh floor."

"The eleventh floor?"

"Yes, I live on the eleventh floor."

"Okay, I took note of it."

Zhou Yi said nothing more, took her bag and phone, and left the suite.

After leaving the suite, she called Qin Shi.

Night fell.

A taxi was driving smoothly on the asphalt road.

Qin Shi sat in the back seat of the car, looking at the scenery outside on his phone.

The streetlights kept passing through the car, leaving streaks of light on his cold glasses.

He wasn't looking at the lights, nor was he really looking at the scenery outside; he was thinking about something.

The eyes behind those glasses were very cold and aloof, a coldness that concealed a multitude of emotions.

"Woooo..."

The phone vibrated, and then the ringtone filled the car.

He looked away and picked up his phone.

Zhou Yi.

When those two words appeared on the screen, his heart skipped a beat, and he answered the phone: "Yi Yi."

His gaze fell on the buildings ahead; they were almost in the city.

Zhou Yi held her phone and listened to the dial tone. When she came to the elevator, the call was answered, and Qin Shi's voice came through.

A smile naturally appeared on Zhou Yi's face as she said, "Brother, Yu Yu is asleep. I've finished my work and am coming out now. I'm on my way to your place. Are you back yet?"

"On their way back."

He glanced at his watch, then at the buildings in front of him, and said, "It'll be there in ten minutes at most."

"Okay, I'll wait for you on the eleventh floor."

"it is good."

Zhou Yi took off her phone and was about to hang up.

"Don't hang up the phone."

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi brought the phone back to her ear: "Brother?"

"Don't hang it up yet."

Zhou Yi fluttered her eyelashes, then smiled and said, "Okay."

"Brother, are you alright now?"

"Yes, I went home this afternoon and checked on the situation at home. Grandma planted a lot of vegetables, and my third uncle and aunt have been helping to take care of them these past few days. There are also a lot of chickens, ducks and geese at home, but my third uncle and aunt have temporarily taken them home to feed them, in case they get stolen."

"The water and electricity are off, the doors are locked, and everything is fine at home."

He told her what he had seen and learned that day when he went back.

As Zhou Yi listened, her fingers unconsciously clenched.

My grandmother wasn't very educated and hadn't read many books. Her health wasn't very good either. Over the years, she relied entirely on growing vegetables and raising chickens, ducks, and geese. It was through these small, painstaking efforts that she was raised to adulthood.

Even now that she's grown up and can support her grandmother, her grandmother still does these very ordinary things.

Zhou Yi's heart clenched, and she said, "I'll give my third uncle and aunt some money in a couple of days and ask them to take care of everything at home."

Grandma doesn't know how to do anything else, nor is she willing to. She's getting old, and she doesn't like going out. She only loves her hometown.

She wanted to save everything from her hometown for her grandmother.

Once Grandma recovers, she will go back and take care of all of these things.

Her voice changed; it no longer contained laughter, but instead sounded serious and composed.

Qin Shi listened to her voice and said, "I've already given it to you."
