Cat O, But Traveling Into The Normal World Chapter 62
byChapter 62 Extra Daily Life (10): New Honeymoon
After going back and taking a shower, Yu You wrapped himself tightly, and the cuffs of his pajamas reached to the back of his hands.
He read a bedtime story to Xiao Xiaoyu. Xiao Xiaoyu hugged the washed and dried scented killer whale doll, and his cheeks were so squishy that he fell into a sweet sleep without even finishing half a page of the story.
The corners of Yu You’s lips curled up slightly, he closed the storybook and placed it on the bedside table, then quietly left Xiao Xiaoyu’s bedroom.
He went to the master bedroom but didn’t see Jiang Xunzhou. He went downstairs and saw Jiang Xunzhou sitting in front of the island, tinkering with a photo frame.
When Jiang Xunzhou heard the noise, he raised his head and asked in surprise: “Xiao Xiaoyu fell asleep? So soon?”
Yu You hummed and said with a smile: “I didn’t even notice when she fell asleep. After reading half a page, I felt something was wrong, and then I saw that Xiao Xiaoyu had fallen asleep.”
He walked to Jiang Xunzhou again and asked, “What are you doing?”
Jiang Xunzhou gently held Yu You’s wrist, pulled him to sit on his lap, and wrapped him between his arms. His voice slowed down and said, “I remember that I have an empty photo frame at home. I just went to find it in the storage room and wanted to frame the family portrait painted by Xiao Xiaoyu in it.”
The family photo painted by Xiao Xiaoyu was put aside, and the photo frame of similar size was dismantled in half.
Yu You sat in Jiang Xunzhou’s arms and watched as he smoothed the corners of the family portrait and put it into the frame.
With a click, the hidden buckle closed.
The wooden photo frame has elegant dark patterns and contains a child’s painting of a family portrait with clumsy and childish lines, standing on the marble island countertop.
Jiang Xunzhou asked: “How about putting it here?”
“It’s quite appropriate.” Yu You turned his face and kissed the corner of Jiang Xunzhou’s lips, “Genius husband.”
Jiang Xunzhou smiled: “Is there any reward?”
Yu You tightened his collar for a second and said, “No, don’t even think about it.”
Jiang Xunzhou tutted, “Xiaoyu’s wife is so stingy.”
“It’s not because someone is asking for too much.” Yu You’s cheeks grew hot, “I’m an old man now. Xiao Xiaoyu is five years old. Can you be more restrained?”
Jiang Xunzhou chuckled and said in an innocent tone: “What are you afraid of? There won’t be a second Xiaoxiaoyu.”
In order to avoid another “surprise”, Jiang Xunzhou did not want to experience the fearful waiting experience in the hospital again, so he had already undergone a vasectomy.
Yu You’s ears burned red and he scratched Jiang Xunzhou’s chest: “It’s not Xiao Xiaoyu’s fault, it’s… something I can’t do!”
Jiang Xunzhou arrived: “Baby, you were not like this before.”
“That’s because I had a passionate period before!” Yu You glared at him, “Who can bear to do this every day?”
Jiang Xunzhou had no intention of introspection. He put his palms on Yu You’s waist and sighed with a little regret.
In the past, during the period of passion, Yu You would act softly and coquettishly, wishing to turn into water and wrap around him to death, and could not bear to separate for a moment.
It’s only been a few years, and if you accidentally messed up the night before, you would stay away from him the next day, and button your pajamas to the top button before going to bed, for fear that he would get mad at her for plotting against her.
“Why are you sighing?” Yu You asked warily, “Do you regret having Xiao Xiaoyu?”
“How dare I?”
Jiang Xunzhou kissed Yu You’s lips flatteringly: “It’s just a little regretful that we didn’t cherish our world as a couple. Now we have less time to date.”
Yu You also remembered: “Yes, it’s such a pity that our honeymoon ended after only one month.”
Jiang Xunzhou said: “Let’s have another honeymoon to commemorate it?”
Yu You hesitated and asked, “What about Xiao Xiaoyu?”
Jiang Xunzhou said: “You can send her to live with my parents for a month. They like Xiao Xiaoyu to play there.”
He got an inspiration from Xiao Xiaoyu’s advance share of toys, and his thin lips curved a little: “Just think of that year’s honeymoon as a sealed bond. Starting from this year, we will redeem one month of honeymoon every year.”
The original honeymoon plan was to travel around for a year, but after only one month it was announced that the plan was discontinued.
Now that Xiao Xiaoyu has grown up, the bonds that were sealed at the beginning can also be accepted.
Yu You was a little moved, but couldn’t help but worry: “Will Xiao Xiaoyu think we have abandoned her?”
Jiang Xunzhou said: “As much as my parents dote on Xiao Xiaoyu, they should be worried that Xiao Xiaoyu will go crazy playing at their place and won’t be able to remember to go home.”
Yu You rolled his eyes: “That’s right.”
Su Qiuling and Jiang Junran were very fond of Xiao Xiaoyu and wanted to give her all the good things. They even bought a playground because it was inconvenient for Yu You to take Xiao Xiaoyu to play in the playground as he pleased.
With an amusement park in his name, when Xiao Xiaoyu wanted to go play, no tickets were sold to the public that day, and they were the only ones traveling.
Even Jiang Qingyan, who wields power outside, can let Xiao Xiaoyu sit on his shoulders and ride a big horse when he returns to the manor.
“But one month is still too long.” Yu You suggested enthusiastically, “Husband, let’s cash in half a month every year.”
“Okay.” Jiang Xunzhou responded without any response and rubbed the tip of his nose indulgently against Yu You’s, “I’ll listen to you.”
After finding the right opportunity, Jiang Xunzhou told his family, and Su Qiuling naturally agreed and promised to take good care of Xiaoyu during this period.
Yu You told Xiao Xiaoyu: “Daddy and Daddy are going out for a while. Is it okay for Xiaoxiaoyu to go live with grandma? When the fifteenth day is counted, Daddy and Daddy will come to take you home.”
After Xiao Xiaoyu grew up and became sensible, he experienced the separation from Yu You who went to film. Although he was reluctant to let go, he accepted it well: “Okay.”
Then he asked eagerly: “When I miss you, can I call you on my watch?”
“It’s okay.” Yu You’s heart softened and he touched Xiao Xiaoyu’s little head, “When you miss us, you can call us at any time.”
Xiao Xiaoyu nodded.
After packing their luggage, Xiao Xiaoyu was sent to Su Qiuling’s side, while Yu You and Jiang Xunzhou went to the airport to continue their unfinished plan of going abroad for their honeymoon.
Their second stop was to stay in a Nordic town again. Although the time was not right and they couldn’t see the Christmas train, the whole town was covered in silver and was still as beautiful as in the past memories.
Even the B&B they booked was where they stayed.
After getting off the car, the neighbor’s grandmother showed up again. Because the two of them looked outstanding, she recognized them at first sight, waved hello, and even jokingly asked if they were here for another honeymoon.
Jiang Xunzhou smiled and admitted that Yu You couldn’t understand the language of their conversation, but that didn’t stop him from digging through his luggage and shyly giving him a gift.
The old woman looked surprised.
Jiang Xunzhou held Yu You’s hand and explained: “Last time we came for our honeymoon, you gave us a bag of biscuits. My lover has always wanted to give you a gift in return – a small ornament with local characteristics from our place.”
Before setting off, although he didn’t know whether he would meet his neighbor’s grandmother again when he came here for his honeymoon, Yu You deliberately brought a small gift.
Fortunately, the neighbor’s grandmother still lives here.
“Thank you.” The old lady didn’t expect to receive a return gift from a foreign country after so many years. She looked at the two familiar yet unfamiliar young couple and said gently, “May the God of happiness bless you forever.”
After entering the cabin, Yu You received a video call from Xiao Xiaoyu.
Xiao Xiaoyu’s round face almost filled the camera lens, and there was a small red flower sticker on his forehead: “Daddy, Daddy! Are you here?”
Yu You’s nose was slightly red from the cold, and he was wearing a thick scarf. He took it off and said with a smile: “We are here.”
He turned the video camera around and showed Xiao Xiaoyu the fireplace: “There is a fireplace here where we live.”
In the red brick fireplace, wood burned with a bright orange warm flame.
Xiao Xiaoyu screamed in surprise.
“I’ll take you here to play next time.”
Yu You’s voice was slightly nasal and sounded very gentle: “Is Xiao Xiaoyu well-behaved at grandma’s house?”
“Yes!” Xiao Xiaoyu said positively, “Today my homework was all correct, and grandma rewarded me with a little red flower!”
Yu You said: “I saw it, Xiao Xiaoyu is so awesome. Tomorrow is the weekend, where are you going to play?”
“Grandma is taking me to the aquarium tomorrow to see dolphins!”
Jiang Xunzhou took off his heavy coat, stood close, put his arm around Yu You’s shoulders, and talked to Xiao Xiaoyu with him.
After chatting for a while, it was time for Xiao Xiaoyu to go to bed. They said goodbye to Xiao Xiaoyu and hung up the video.
After Yu You and Jiang Xunzhou packed their luggage, it was already dark outside. Looking out of the kitchen window, the sky here was particularly beautiful, with stars shining brightly, forming a dazzling Milky Way.
The two wanted to make mulled wine, so they stood side by side in the kitchen and cut oranges, apples and lemons. They did not add cinnamon, which Yu You didn’t like, but only added rosemary and other spices, and cooked a pot of sweet and sour food.
They opened a small window in the kitchen, and the cold wind suddenly poured in. The stars in the night sky seemed to twinkle brighter and seemed to be closer.
The cartoon mug contains mulled wine, and the white steam is steaming.
Yu You and Jiang Xunzhou stood in front of the small window, their faces were cold from the wind, and their fingers were warmed by the hot red wine, looking side by side at the vast galaxy outside.
“It’s so beautiful.”
The tip of Yu You’s nose was red from the cold again, but he couldn’t bear to look away. His eyes seemed to be filled with countless tiny stars, and he murmured softly.
Jiang Xunzhou turned his head and glanced at Yu You, with a soft smile in his voice: “Yes, very beautiful.”
Yu You suddenly grabbed Jiang Xunzhou’s arm: “Ah, meteor!”
Jiang Xunzhou was suddenly startled and looked up.
Several shooting stars trailing beautiful silver tails flashed past in the deep night sky.
Jiang Xunzhou said: “Baby, I heard that any wish you make to a shooting star will come true.”
“Really?”
Yu You quickly closed his eyes and began to pray devoutly.
Jiang Xunzhou smiled, closed his eyes and made his wish.
Shooting stars flashed one after another in the vast night sky, brilliant and brilliant, one after another, grand and magnificent.
After Yu You made his wish, he opened his eyes and saw such a scene, his eyes flashed with surprise.
Jiang Xunzhou asked: “What wish did the baby make to the shooting star?”
Yu You leaned against Jiang Xunzhou, looked up at him, and smiled a little silly: “I made a wish that will definitely come true – I hope we will be happy forever.”
Then asked: “What about you?”
“It’s a very similar wish.”
Jiang Xunzhou stretched out his hand that was hot from the mug, touched Yu You’s cheek, and said with a smile: “I hope we will always be by each other’s side, and have such good moments every year.”
