Papa Paladin

  Shoulder to shoulder, as if returning to the past.

   Neither Zuo Yi nor Gu Yunxi spoke.

   It’s not that there is nothing to say between the two, but that after so many years and so many things have happened, although there are many things to say, they are willing to move forward slowly at this moment.

The silence speaks.

  Although they don\'t hold hands like they did when they were passionately in love, but along the way, the little strangeness and estrangement between them gradually disappeared.

   Came to a park near Sanlitun aimlessly, Zuo Yi called Gu Yunxi to sit down on a bench by the lake.

  He took out his mobile phone and called Bao\'er.

   This time he was away from home for several days, because he was in another world, so Zuo Yi lost contact with his family. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, he would have to talk to the little girl every day when he was outside.

   Now, I miss it very much.

"dad?"

  Hearing Bao\'er\'s voice from the phone, Zuo Yi showed a smile on his face: "Well, baby, you haven\'t slept yet?"

   "I was just going to sleep."

  Boa explained: "You just called."

  Zuo Yi hehehe: "Did you miss Dad?"

"think!"

  The little girl replied without thinking, and then asked: "Father, when are you going home?"

   "I\'ll be home tomorrow."

  Zuo Yi replied, then held the phone\'s microphone, turned his head and asked softly, "Do you want to have a chat with Bao\'er?"

  Ever since Zuo Yi started calling Bao\'er, Gu Yunxi seemed very nervous. Hearing Zuo Yi\'s words, she opened her mouth, shook her head in a panic, and her eye circles were red.

  Gu Yunxi misses Bao\'er very much. It is the flesh that fell from her body. Over the past few years, she has been haunted by dreams, and she has imagined how many times she will meet Bao\'er.

   It\'s just that now she doesn\'t know what to say to Bao\'er, how to say it.

   Not fully prepared mentally.

  Zuo Yi understood her mood, so he hung up the phone after chatting with the little girl for a few more words.

  Gu Yunxi sobbed softly.

  At this moment, she is no longer the independent and strong woman, but a mother who is full of worries and guilt.

  Zuo Yi held her hand and said softly: "You don\'t have to worry about anything, Bao\'er is very good. I told her that she will definitely accept you."

  Gu Yunxi couldn\'t help but threw herself into Zuo Yi\'s arms, hugged him tightly with both hands, and cried out.

  Just to draw warmth and comfort.

  Zuo Yi hugged her, an unspeakable emotion surging in his heart.

  …

  The next morning, Zuo Yi and Gu Yunxi left the capital by plane and flew to Hangzhou.

  Gu Yunxi’s temporary ID is reissued at the airport service station. The official ID and bank card and mobile phone card have to be processed in Hangzhou again. Her parents and family are currently abroad, and there are actually no relatives in Hangzhou.

  It was already afternoon when the flight arrived in Hangzhou, Zuo Yi did not take Gu Yunxi directly to Linjiang Old House, but went to Guanhu Jingyuan first.

   "Who is it?"

  As soon as he opened the door of his new home, he heard Chen Wan\'s voice.

  Chen Wan was cleaning in the living room wearing an apron and a headscarf. When she saw Zuo Yi and Gu Yunxi, the rag in her hand fell to the ground with a "click": "Xixi!"

  Chen Wan never dreamed that Zuo Yi would bring Gu Yunxi back home!

   "Xiao Wan!"

  Gu Yunxi stepped forward and hugged her best friend, crying on the spot: "I\'m back."

   For Chen Wan, Gu Yunxi has always felt guilty, because of Baoer, she brought Chen Wan a lot of trouble and danger.

  Although it was requested by Chen Wan herself.

"Great!"

  Chen Wan cried with joy: "You are finally back, that\'s great!"

  The two women were crying and laughing, they were very excited, and it took a long time for them to calm down.

   It is unavoidable to hold hands and talk a lot.

  After learning about each other\'s situation, Chen Wan couldn\'t help asking: "Have you seen Bao\'er?"

  Gu Yunxi shook her head: "Not yet."

  She showed a trace of sadness.

"it does not matter."

  Chen Wan hugged her: "I\'ll be with you, I want to tell Bao\'er that you are her mother and you gave everything for her."

   Gu Yunxi burst into tears: "Thank you, Xiao Wan."

"we are best friends."

  Chen Wan reached out to help her wipe away her tears, and said with a smile, "You don\'t need to be so polite to me."

  Gu Yunxi nodded.

  The two looked at each other and smiled.

"correct."

  Chen Wan asked: "Will you leave this time when you come back?"

  She didn\'t know the specific situation, and she was still a little worried about Gu Yunxi.

   "Yun Xi\'s problems have been resolved."

  Zuo Yi replied for Gu Yunxi: "She won\'t leave again."

  Chen Wan opened her eyes wide: "Really?"

  Gu Yunxi nodded again.

"That\'s great."

  Chen Wan was sincerely happy for her: "Then you and Zuo Yi, well, you two..."

  Gu Yunxi\'s pretty face flushed: "I want to live with you for a while first."

  Originally, she had her own home in Hangzhou, but the original house had been sold by her parents, and she was embarrassed to live in Zuo Yi\'s house. Living together with Chen Wan was undoubtedly the best choice.

   For Gu Yunxi, the most important thing right now is to get to know Bao\'er. As for the future, she can only take one step at a time.

"no problem."

  Chen Wan pursed her lips and said with a smile: "This house is very big, and there are several rooms, you can live in whatever you want, anyway, the landlord doesn\'t charge rent."

  The house belongs to Zuo Yi, and Gu Yunxi also knows it now.

  She pulled Chen Wan and talked a lot.

  Zuo Yi didn\'t bother the two of them until it was almost evening before he said, "Let\'s go."

  He took Gu Yunxi, and together with Chen Wan, they teleported directly to the Linjiang old house with the help of the teleportation array upstairs in the room.

   Arriving at the house over there, Gu Yunxi was stunned for more than half a minute, but didn\'t take a step forward.

   It wasn\'t that she was shocked by the magic of the teleportation array, but that she heard the noises of Bo\'er and Taike playing downstairs.

   Feeling timid and unable to control myself!

   Both Zuo Yi and Chen Wan understood Gu Yunxi\'s mood at the moment, and Chen Wan held her hand, hoping to give her courage.

   Gu Yunxi mustered up her courage, and the three of them went downstairs together.

"dad!"

  The little girl was the first to see Zuo Yi, and immediately yelled happily and left Tike and flew over.

"baby!"

  Zuo Yi reached out and hugged her into his arms, and slapped her **** the face.

   Bao\'er giggled and waved at Chen Wan who was behind: "Aunt Wan."

  She noticed Gu Yunxi who was with Chen Wan, showing a curious look.

  Gu Yunxi stared at the little girl obsessively, tears falling down like pearls that fell off the thread.

  The tears she shed in her life are not as many as today!

  Zuo Yi said softly: "Bao\'er, this is your mother."

"Mother?"

   Bao\'er blinked suspiciously: "My mother?"
