2302 Words
In the end, Andrew Friedle and Tony stayed like that for the night. The apartment arranged by this company is not big, only one bedroom with a living room, which is really a problem. "I sleep in the living room, can you and Tony sleep in my room? I'll change the sheets for a bit..." "No need, I sleep in the living room, you and Tony sleep in the bedroom." The tone of voice clearly showed that she didn't let her refuse. Layla Vidali felt so guilty, not only invited the Confederacy to eat cheap hotpot, but even let him sleep in the living room. If it was only Andrew Friedle tonight, even if it was raining, she would have refused to let him stay, especially in the morning situation, but this time there was an extra small bun. It's really dangerous in this kind of weather for him to carry a child home, and moreover having a baby doesn't count as a man or a woman, right? Layla Vidali can only accept her fate: "Let me find out if there are clothes for you to change..." Searched for a match but really found it!!!!! In the past, when she worked part-time, at the factory, a pikachu pajamas for children was given to her at the factory, which she conveniently stuffed into the closet, fortunately Tony was able to wear it. Andrew Friedle was easier to handle, her brother had some clothes left for her. After getting her biological parents back, Layla Vidali felt very sorry for her adoptive parents, she had no face to see them again, so she rarely contacted them, only occasionally back and forth. with her younger brother Tang Nuo. After finding the clothes, Layla Vidali went back to the room to get Andrew Friedle a new set of pillows. The sofa in the living room was not big enough for Andrew Friedle's long legs to rest, so she had to move a couch to extend it. Tony makes others feel very secure, he knows how to bathe himself, put on his own lovely clothes, and then voluntarily lie down on the bed. Layla Vidali took a shower and put on a rather conservative looking pajamas, after making sure she didn't have any weird places to go outside. "So... Mr. Friedle, I'm going to bed first, if there's anything you need, just call me." "Um." Seeing Layla Vidali finish bathing, Andrew Friedle was a bit lost, but soon his eyes immediately darkened. Her hair was pulled back in a neat bun, her pajamas looked as casual as possible, her face unbleached, her fair skin still red from the shower. It can be seen that Layla Vidali is trying to avoid her appearance really doesn't matter. But Andrew Friedle could hardly imagine his mood at the moment, because he discovered that a certain part of his lower body was gradually raising its head. ....... After Layla Vidali entered the room, she suddenly found a lovely little thing on her bed, feeling very magical. From last night until now, a lot of things happened beyond her expectations. "Go to sleep." She lay down next to Tony, turned off the ceiling light, leaving only the bedside lamp. Little dumplings blinked, not feeling sleepy at all. Layla Vidali has a headache again. It seems that children have to tell stories to comfort them before going to sleep.... Layla Vidali shrugged helplessly: "I don't know how to tell stories, or can I sing a song for you?" Little dumpling nodded, looking extremely expectant. So Layla Vidali patted the baby on the back and softly sang: "Autumn is half warm and half cold Peace of mind based on people's hearts Quietly watching the flow of light fly by In the other wind, another sheet of red chlorophyll Make my heart a piece of peace Half awake, half drunk Again giving way to smile thousands of thousands Let me be like a cloud in the snow Use the tape to gently kiss people's faces Bring a layer, a layer of endless waves Save humanity so much love Facing a thousand events ...." Layla Vidali sings until here, she chokes, because the next sentence is " Do pleasant things with sentient beings. Don't ask if it's life or fate ." *Song: Luu Quang Phi Vu, soundtrack of the movie Thanh Xa Bach Xa (1993) played by Vuong To Hien. What the heck, the lyrics of this song don't seem to be suitable for children, do they? Or change the post... "Cough, you forgot how to sing the next part, let me change the song!" Little dumplings obediently nodded in agreement. Layla Vidali racked her brains and changed her mind to another song with safer words: "In the lagoon there is a baby frog, When it dances, it looks like a prince has entered (-.-)(-.-)(-.-) Cool eyes no frog can match, One day it will be awakened by the princess, Believing that miracles are always with us, Confidently mature with friends by your side la la la la la la ...... Singing three times the song of the little frog dancing, the side finally came to breathe steadily. Raising children is really not easy! Suddenly she felt so much respect for her single dad Andrew Friedle! I also don't know who the mother of the little dumpling is, why gave birth to the little dumpling but still not with Andrew Friedle? Because of their low status, the Friele Family doesn't accept it? Or is there something else with Andrew Friedle that can't be let others know? Constantly thinking like that, Layla Vidali also gradually fell into a dream. Sleeping until midnight, Layla Vidali was awakened by a low echo from the living room. Little dumplings slept very soundly, she crept out of bed to see what was going on. Pushing open the bedroom door, only to see Andrew Friedle pouring water, one hand holding his stomach, pale face. Layla Vidali hurried over: "Mr Friedle, are you okay?" "No problem." "Um...m, do you have a stomachache?" Andrew Friedle said nothing. Layla Vidali knew she was right. Mommy! Turns out Andrew Friedle can't eat spicy food, can't eat but try to swallow? "Wait, I'll go get you some stomach medicine." Fortunately, the drugs she often used were available. Layla Vidali hastily brought the medicine: "Must take both pills." "Thank you." Andrew Friedle took the medicine out of her hand, a cool hand brushed over it, the feeling, like touching the heart, made one suddenly feel very weak. In the dark night, heavy rain, strong wind, there is such a beauty standing in front of me, the gun is easy to take the trigger! Layla Vidali mumbled several rounds of Pi to calm down. Seeing that Andrew Friedle finished taking the medicine, she did not leave immediately, but stayed by his side for a while. "Are you getting better, do you need to go to the hospital? Sorry, I didn't know you can't eat spicy food..." At first she was worried about the small dumplings, but in the end it was okay for the small dumplings, and Andrew Friedle happened, what a strange thing.... "It has nothing to do with you, it's just an old illness." The two of them were silent for a while, and Andrew Friedle suddenly opened his mouth: "Tonight, to disturb you is because Tony wants to see you." Layla Vidali was surprised to hear that: "Tony wants to see me?" "When Tony was panicking in the warehouse, you saved him, now he's very dependent on you." Andrew Friedle explains. Layla Vidali discovered, as long as Tony is around or when it comes to anything related to Tony, the terrifying coldness emanating from Andrew Friedle will be gently reduced, not as scary as in the morning. "It turns out..." Layla Vidali nodded. Perhaps because it's easy at night to make people let go of their defenses and hesitate, Layla Vidali asked a question that she always kept in mind: "So, dare to ask a question, Tony doesn't know what to say?" So far, she still hasn't seen Tony cough a word, the baby can only nod and shake his head. "It's not that I can't speak, it's that I don't want to say it." Andrew Friedle replied. "So it's a psychological problem?" Layla Vidali frowned. "Tony has some signs of autism." Andrew Friedle didn't hide it either. "So...." It wasn't much different from what she expected. As for why Tony was autistic, someone's house secret, of course, she didn't dare to ask in detail. "Miss Layla." Andrew Friedle suddenly looked at her intently, his eyes were obviously very cold but made her feel like it was burning her to the point of losing all sensation. "Yes?" Layla Vidali was taken aback. "Have we met somewhere before?" Andrew Friedle asked. If this question was asked by someone else, Layla Vidali would definitely think that the other person is trying to approach her, and it's also old-fashioned flirting, but the person who said this was Andrew Friedle, doubt in his eyes. He is real. "Probably not, someone like Mr. Friedle here, if I ever met him, it's absolutely impossible not to be impressed... Well, what's wrong?" Layla Vidali 's tone seemed certain, given her status, even if she was still the Great Lady of the Vidali Family, it was impossible to meet someone of Andrew Friedle's class. "Nothing." Andrew Friedle looked away, looking at the night sky reflected in the window, a little lonely. If this continues, the atmosphere is bound to be weird! "Mr Friedle, if you're okay, how about I go to bed first?" Layla Vidali said carefully. Andrew Friedle clearly saw her intentions, raised his hand: "No hurry, just sit." No rush! She is in a hurry to be over here! Layla Vidali looked like a funeral but still obediently sat down, sitting like an elementary school student. Andrew Friedle propped his head: "Are you afraid of me?" Andrew Friedle's coldness in the night compared to the day looks more evil, more dangerous. Layla Vidali shook her head like a drum, then nodded again and again: "There is no one in this Imperial Capital who is not afraid of you, right?" Andrew Friedle's long fingers glided over the glass of water, he said softly: "Just because everyone else is afraid of me, you are afraid too? So, other women want to marry me, why don't you?" This question scared Layla Vidali so much that she almost fell off her chair. In the morning she thought she had avoided life, she was so naive. How should she answer this question? Layla Vidali raised her hand tremblingly: "Before answering this, can I ask a question?" Andrew Friedle nodded, "Okay." "Why me? Is it because Tony relies on me so much? I think this is only temporary, wait until his mood settles down and it will be fine, but even if he is always like that, you don't need... you don't have to be so angry with yourself...." Layla Vidali advised enthusiastically, as if advising a fallen girl. Musical Dinh Kieu put down the cup of water in his hand, looked up and looked directly at her: "Mss Layla, I thought I said it very clearly from the beginning, if you still don't understand, I don't mind saying it again. Because of you. saved Tony, so I decided to return it with my body." It is... because... because this reason is so crazy that I can't accept it? Layla Vidali screamed in her heart. Layla Vidali felt unable to clarify this issue with the other party, so she regretted saying: "Mr Friedle, I thank you very much for your good intentions, in fact I am a non-maritalist, so ..." Andrew Friedle frowned: "So, you just want to sleep with me? You don't want to marry me?" "That's it.... Ah messed up! No, no, no... that's not what I meant!" Layla Vidali wants to kneel at Andrew Friedle's feet already, can't you talk like that? "Unfortunately, I can only accept s****l relations on the premise of marriage." "Who would believe it..." Layla Vidali couldn't help but mutter, isn't he also not married but already has children? Andrew Friedle looked out the window, looking distraught, "Tony was an accident, I don't know who his mother is either." "....Why do you sound so miserable to hear this? "Do you mind because I have a child?" Andrew Friedle suddenly asked. "How can this be!" Like Andrew Friedle said, all the women in this town think they want to be Tony's stepmother, so why should she care. "Then why?" It seemed that if Andrew Friedle did not clarify this matter tonight, she would not be spared. Layla Vidali helplessly supported her forehead, she took a deep breath and said: "Mr Friedle, marriage is not a joke, whether it's for revenge or for other reasons, we have just met. Do you know anything about me?Do you know what my past is like?" "The person I want to marry is the aunt of the present, her past has nothing to do with me." No shame is Andrew Friedle's answer, awesome. Layla Vidali's face gradually sank: "But for me, my past is also a part of me, I cannot let go of the past and marry you. scheming*", I strongly advise you to put aside that mythical way of thinking." * If you are not of the same mind, you cannot cooperate and discuss ideas. Then they both fell into silence. When Layla Vidali felt that the other party was so embarrassed that she was rejected, she was about to get angry with her. Andrew Friedle calmly said, "I know." Layla Vidali's tight nerves can finally relax: "Then I'm going to sleep, good night." "Sleep well."
