When Lin Zidan came out of the hospital, the sky was completely dark, and the street lights on the street were exceptionally bright. I don't know if it was because the festive atmosphere had not yet dissipated, and the air was still filled with the faint woody fragrance of the Christmas tree.

Standing at the corner downstairs of the hospital, looking numbly at the traffic coming and going, he was imagining Zhang Jing, pulling out a cigarette, lit it, took a hard puff, and then squinted at the smoke ring. Curling up in the air, no wonder so many men like to smoke, on the one hand because of loneliness, on the other hand because smoking is cool!

Lin Zidan thought that he also smoked before coming to the United States, and he could buy a pack of cigarettes for three or two dollars in China, but after arriving in the United States, in order to save the few dollars of cigarette money, he unconsciously gave up cigarettes. Now, especially when he first arrived in the United States, he always used to convert US dollars into RMB. The original 5 US dollars, when he thought it was more than 30 RMB, his heart suddenly hurt, and he couldn't bear to smoke!

An intriguing wry smile twitched at the corners of his mouth. Lin Zidan raised his head to look up at the night sky, which was hidden by tall buildings. Manhattan is crowded, much more crowded than Long Island, because from his point of view, he couldn't even see a whole sky. , there is only a chaotic darkness that has been rendered by various lights, similar to the sky.

"Daniel?"

Suddenly hearing Zhang Jing coming from behind, he stood there and didn't look back. If the only person in this world who could make him let go of his guard was probably only a friend like Zhang Jing, but he was ashamed, he still had There are many things that can't be said to Zhang Jingming.

"Are you all right?" In the cold wind, Zhang Jing's voice was like the fireplace at home. Although you didn't touch the stove, you still felt its warmth. Lin Zidan is very fortunate to have met such a reliable friend!

"Zhang Jing, thank you today!" Lin Zidan turned and said slowly.

"Hey, it's all buddies, thank you or not. But there is something I want to say as a friend." Zhang Jing looked at Lin Zidan's calm expression, and continued, "I have always been I think Auntie is a very thoughtful person, but I can see that she really cares about you, but maybe you have been separated for too long before, and she can't find a correct way to communicate with you."

"Haha~ Maybe!" Lin Zidan said with a wry smile.

He wanted to say to Zhang Jing, "How sad and ridiculous is it if a mother has to play tricks with her son all the time?" But he didn't say it, because friends are for sharing happiness, no People should be allowed to bear your personal misery, and negative energy is sometimes contagious, and he doesn't want to be the carrier.

"Maybe she's not wrong, she just used the wrong method!" After speaking, Lin Zidan sighed deeply, then turned around and walked towards the hospital door. As he walked, he turned around and asked Zhang Jing:

"Why did you come down, is my mother all right?" Her tone was as relaxed as she was asking about today's weather.

"You're a ghost for a while, your mother asked me to come down and see you." Zhang Jing looked at this friend who seemed to have his own repair ability in surprise, and couldn't help complaining.

"I'm going up, why don't you go back, there's nothing to help here anyway, maybe I'll give birth in a while!" Lin Zidan waved his hand to Zhang Jing as he walked forward lightly.

"Hey? Send the Buddha to the west.. Bah, bah, I mean, I've paid 81 salutations, so what's the difference? Let's go, I'll follow along!" Zhang Jing followed behind with disapproval. road.

. . . . . .

When Li Manrui heard Lin Zidan's departure, she knew that she had done something stupid again. She found that she tried her best and failed to repair her relationship with her son. Mike, who couldn't be contacted at all, felt that his marriage was a failure.

The labor pains continued, but the doctor had allowed her to go into the delivery room for delivery. Lin Zidan and Zhang Jing were both isolated from the outside. Originally, no one except the doctor and midwife could help with the childbirth, but in the United States, her husband was Allowed to stay together in the delivery room to accompany the delivery.

Almost every mother Li Manrui knew who gave birth in the United States was accompanied by her husband, and she found a foreigner husband. This kind of thing should be natural, but I didn't expect that she would be surrounded by sweet talk every day. Husband, I don't know where the person is at the moment.

When Li Manrui's child was born, it was already 11 o'clock in the evening. Lin Zi was very irritable waiting outside, but he no longer felt the same tension before coming to the hospital. During this period, he and Zhang Jing ate in a small restaurant outside. French fries, a bottle of Coke, and by now I'm cooing hungry again.

"Daniel, who is Daniel, a nurse midwife came out of the delivery room and shouted at the waiting crowd.

"I, I am!" Lin Zidan, who was sitting in the armchair outside, immediately stood up from his seat, walked to the nurse a few steps and asked eagerly, "What happened?"

"You are Daniel. You are a brother. Your mother has given birth to a beautiful little sister. Would you like to go in and have a look?" The black nurse smiled lovingly.

"Oh, okay!" Lin Zidan breathed a sigh of relief without realizing it. When he wanted to go in, he suddenly thought of Zhang Jing who was waiting together, and called to him again, "Zhang Jing, do you want to go with us?"

The two walked into the delivery room cautiously. Li Manrui's birth bed was separated by a curtain, and they couldn't see how the person was. Li Manrui had a very tired body to give birth to a child at this age. She chose to give birth naturally, and the child was pushed for more than an hour. She had just been born, and she was already tired and fell asleep, and she didn't even know that the obstetrician was bringing two interns to help her suture the wound.

The black nurse brought them in to see the child lying on the cot.

Lin Zitan approached to take a look. There was a white card next to the child's bed. Annie, the mother's name, and the height and weight of the child at birth were written on the name. The little girl of 7.4LB was lying there babbling at the moment, as if she was greeting Lin Zidan, and Lin Zidan's heart melted instantly.

"Let me see, isn't the half-breed particularly beautiful?" Zhang Jing also squeezed over and pushed Lin Zidan away a little to see the newly born little girl in the baby's swaddling clothes.

"Wow, your sister is so cute! No wonder they all say that half-breeds are good-looking~lightnovelpub.net~ I'm going to have a half-breed to play with, hehe~" Zhang Jing used his fingers to tease the little baby who didn't have any focus. , while muttering an oath.

"Your wife hasn't decided yet, so you're ready to raise a child?" Lin Zidan laughed at Zhang Jing's remarks.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the door. Someone eagerly pushed open the door of the delivery room and shouted, "Marry, Marry, where are you?"

Lin Zidan looked up and saw Mike breaking in sweating profusely. His neat and clean suit was now messy and dejected.

Seeing the baby on the cot, Mike's eyes lit up instantly. Seeing that Lin Zidan and Zhang Jing were surrounded by the bed, he walked over excitedly and wanted to stretch out his hand to pick up the baby, but before Lin Zidan could stop him, he just brought him with him. The black nurse they came in had already blocked Mike.

"Hey, who are you? This is the delivery room, not the patient's family can't enter!" The female nurse was obviously very upset at Mike's rude behavior, and deliberately tried to make things wrong.

"I... I'm the child's father!" Mike looked at Lin Zidan and Zhang Jing again, and said aggrievedly for help.

"Mike, I'm...here..." Li Manrui's weak voice suddenly came from the delivery bed in the enclosure. Mike immediately called Li Manrui's name and turned and walked inside.

"I'm sorry, he is indeed the father of the child, maybe he was too excited, sorry~" Lin Zidan said apologetically to the black nurse who stopped him just now.

"But why is he so rude?" The black nurse whispered in a puzzled voice, then turned around and went to do something else, leaving Lin Zidan and Zhang Jing standing there looking at each other.
