Chapter 82 Come with me to see him.
The atmosphere at the dinner table became somewhat subdued for a moment. Huang Lizhi almost buried his head in his bowl, slowly poking at the rice inside.
Seeing her so cautious, Lee Ji-eun sighed helplessly.
She reached out and gently ruffled Huang Lizhi's hair, saying softly, "Eat quickly, the fish will get cold and fishy, but I'm fine."
"Yes..." Huang Lizhi responded in a very low voice, not daring to mention that name again.
Late at night, Lee Ji-eun lay in bed, wide awake.
The wall clock in the living room ticked away.
She turned around, her hand unconsciously stroking the empty sheets beside her.
Five months have passed, but some habits are like they're etched into my bones, impossible to break.
Qiqi and Baba probably sensed her mood, so they climbed up the edge of the bed and nestled on either side of her feet, breathing rhythmically.
Lee Ji-eun chuckled self-deprecatingly and pulled the blanket up a little.
How could I possibly forget?
Every time she finished recording a TV program and saw the grapefruit tea prepared in the nanny van, she would vaguely feel that it was prepared by him.
Every time I go to the supermarket and see the braised fish seasoning on the shelf, all I can think of is his back as he works in the kitchen wearing an apron.
The last message was from five months ago.
Over the past five months, she has typed countless times on this screen, writing down her exhaustion, her nervousness about the premiere of her new drama, and her longing for him.
Each time, her finger hovered over the "send" button for a long time, but in the end, she deleted it all, word by word.
He's already engaged and is even about to become a father.
Although Hwang Ye-ji kept it a secret very well, how could Lee Ji-eun, who had been in the entertainment industry for so many years, not notice the girl's occasional absent-mindedness and hesitation?
"Lin Yuan..."
Lee Ji-eun murmured the name softly in the darkness, her eyes slightly moist.
She closed her eyes, forcing herself not to think about the upcoming fan meeting in Haishi.
But a voice deep inside her kept asking, if she went to his city, would she be able to see him? Even just a glimpse from afar?
Meanwhile, in Haishi, China.
Lin Yuan stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, where all was quiet.
Mihoko had already fallen asleep, and before going to sleep, she held his hand, happily sharing how many times the baby had kicked her that day.
Lin Yuan looked away and stared at the lit-up phone screen on the table.
This message was sent by Huang Lizhi half an hour ago:
"Oppa, I accidentally let slip that I mentioned you today. Although Unnie wasn't angry, she had insomnia again last night."
And... I'm really looking forward to the fan meeting in Haishi on the 8th. I secretly saw her constantly checking the weather forecast for Haishi.
Lin Yuan lit a cigarette but didn't smoke it until the flame burned his fingertips, at which point he came to his senses.
This was the only chance he had to see Lee Ji-eun in five months.
To go or not to go?
Going is for the sake of the longing that is so close, the unfinished business, even if it is just a simple "long time no see".
Not going, coupled with the already established responsibility and the guilt towards Mieko, made him ashamed to face her.
If he goes, given his current status, he can easily get the most important inner position, and even go backstage.
But what happens after I get there? When I see her, what identity should I adopt? And what should I say?
Now, he is an expectant father, carrying the weight of a life about to be born and a fiancée who loves him wholeheartedly.
During this time, Mieko fulfilled her role as a wife very well, and her parents were very satisfied.
Even I find her impeccable.
"Lin Yuan, you can't be so selfish."
He picked up his phone, his long, slender fingers tapping on the screen, and replied to Huang Lizhi:
"Take good care of her. It's getting colder in Haishi these days, so remind her to bring an extra jacket."
As for whether or not to go to the event, he ultimately hadn't decided.
Some decisions are only made clear at the moment of meeting.
Just like Zeng Xiaoxian from the sitcom "iPartment": the decision is often already made the moment you flip a coin.
November 8th, cloudy.
Mihoko packed up the test results, changed into flat shoes, and prepared to leave for her prenatal checkup. She grabbed her coat and helped Lin Yuan put it on, then took his arm and walked out of the house.
At the hospital entrance, the vice president and his assistant were already waiting.
"Mr. Lin, Mrs. Lin, please follow this way. The examination room is ready." The vice president bowed slightly, his tone full of respect.
Mihoko smiled politely and thanked him, then tightened her grip on Lin Yuan's arm, her face beaming with anticipation and happiness at the prospect of seeing her baby, even if it was just a video.
The hospital corridor was quiet.
Lin Yuan let Mei Huizi hold his arm, his steps steady, but his gaze unconsciously drifted out as he passed the window at the end of the corridor.
It's very windy in Shanghai today.
Did she bring a coat?
The moment the thought popped into his head, Lin Yuan forcefully suppressed it.
Mihoko's laughter seemed to be a warning to him, reminding him of his identity and responsibilities at this moment.
"Honey, look, the baby is moving again." In the examination room, Mihoko lay on the bed, looking at the small, blurry outline on the screen, her face beaming with a happy smile.
What an adorable little guy!
Lin Yuan stood by the bed, took Mei Huizi's hand, and said, "Yes, I saw it."
Looking at the little red dot on the screen that represents new life, that is his bloodline, his first child.
"You're developing very well, and all your health indicators are excellent." The doctor smiled and pulled down his mask.
"Thank you, doctor." Mihoko breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at Lin Yuan, her eyes filled with tenderness, "Darling, let's go, or we'll miss our chance."
Lin Yuan was completely confused. "Huizi, you..."
"Oh, stop asking, let's go!" Mihoko pulled him away quickly, not giving Lin Yuan a chance to say anything more.
.....
Shanghai Sports Center.
The stadium was bustling with activity today, packed with people.
IU's promotional posters were placed in every corner to ensure that fans who came in could see them as soon as possible.
Lin Yuan's heart skipped a beat. He wasn't prepared to see Lee Ji-eun, so after a moment's thought, he said to Mihoko, "There's nothing worth seeing here, let's go somewhere else!"
He was about to start the car when he said that.
The next second, Mieko grabbed his hand.
Mieko smiled and shook her head. "Come with me to see him, okay?"
Her voice was delicate, gentle, and soft.
Lin Yuan's body trembled involuntarily.
噫～
It has to be said that Japanese girls are indeed very talented in this area.
I just don't know if Lee Ji-eun would be willing to see him.
"Fine, you asked for it, I actually have no interest in it at all."
Lin Yuan complained that it was troublesome, but his hands moved quickly. Two seconds later, he was already outside the car, as if afraid that Mei Huizi would change her mind.
Mieko sighed, thinking to herself, "What a hypocrite."
'Click'
The car door was opened, and she took Lin Yuan's hand and got out of the car, and they walked inside together.
