Bringing Along a Ball and Hiding from Foreign Devils

Chapter 44

Ren Zhouyuan was led away by Leonid with a dumbfounded look on his face. His mind was racing as he kept wondering what was going on.

About twenty seconds ago, Leonid had quickly tidied up their clothes, and before Ren Zhouyuan could react, he was dragged towards the door with a flushed face. Ren Zhouyuan only realized what was going on when he saw the noblewoman outside and heard Leonid call her mother.

He was a little embarrassed as he pulled at his clothes. He was so surprised and nervous that he didn't even know how to stand. Although he couldn't see his face, he could imagine how embarrassed he was right now.

Leonid introduced the two of them to each other, and Ren Zhouyuan hurriedly called out "Auntie". When he met Anna's curious eyes, Ren Zhouyuan's eyes darted around, not daring to look into her eyes. His hand, which was held by Leonid, began to sweat.

Leonid felt his nervousness and squeezed his hand to cheer him up. He then turned to Anna and said, "Mom, why are you here? Where are the rest of them?"

Anna glanced at him angrily and complained with her eyes. It's all because you're too slow. She looked at the expressions of the two of them and quickly understood why they were so slow.

She was full of curiosity about this male daughter-in-law. Just now, Ron had brought An 'an over for them to see, and the whole family had an indescribable fondness for An' an. The child was handsome and looked like a little gentleman in a small suit. Because he was unfamiliar with the visitors, he sat obediently to the side. His panicked little eyes made people feel sorry for him.

An 'an didn't speak Russian and stuck to Ron the whole time. After knowing who the foreigners were, he stared at them with wide eyes, as if he was surprised that he had so many relatives overnight.

In order to make Anna and the others accept Ren Zhouyuan better, Leonid had said that Ren Zhouyuan was an orphan and that his early years of living alone with An 'an to make a living was particularly difficult. So now that the group of people saw that An' an was beautiful and well-behaved, they couldn't help but feel sorry for Ren Zhouyuan.

Anna could see that Ren Zhouyuan was very nervous. She smiled at him and said, "Are you Ren Zhouyuan? Hello, I'm Leonid's mother. You can call me Anna. "

Ren Zhouyuan nodded and said hello.

Leonid pulled Ren Zhouyuan into his arms and pushed him forward from behind. He turned his head and said to Anna, "Okay, okay, don't stand here. The banquet is about to start. I'll take him to meet the others first."

Ren Zhouyuan was pushed away. He felt that it wasn't appropriate to act like this in front of Leonid's mother. However, he wasn't as strong as Leonid, so he could only glare at him.

Anna followed behind the two of them and naturally saw their little movements. Originally, she was a little upset that her son had found a male daughter-in-law. However, after seeing the interaction between the two of them, this little dissatisfaction didn't arise again. After all, as she said before, living a good life was more important than anything else.

Ren Zhouyuan was a little flattered to see the rest of Leonid's family. He also saw his legendary brother and his family. Seeing the interaction between the three of them, he seemed to understand a little what Leonid's pursuit of family happiness was.

The moment An An saw Ren Zhouyuan, she flew into his arms. Whether it was An An or Ren Zhouyuan, in such a strange environment, their tense emotions finally relaxed a little when they saw familiar faces.

Looking at the family's attitude toward him, Ren Zhouyuan couldn't believe that he had won their favor so easily. However, when he saw Leonid, who usually didn't speak much, desperately introducing his family to him, and even threatening Ron with his eyes to liven up the atmosphere, he knew that it wasn't easy to get the family's recognition.

He just didn't know how much effort he had put in behind the scenes.

It would be a lie to say that he wasn't touched, especially after hearing his speech not long ago. Ren Zhouyuan felt that it was a little stupid and ridiculous that he had always doubted him.

He began to open up a little bit, tried to join the conversation, and acted as a translator in the communication between An An and Leonid's family. During this period, he also saw Leonid looking at An An the same way An An used to look at him. Looking at the father and son who were secretly competing, he suddenly felt that happiness seemed to be so simple.

Alexis's fat son, Anatoly, was about the same age as An An. They should have been at the age to play together. However, An An didn't speak Russian, and Anatoly didn't speak Chinese. They held a robot and a toy car respectively. After looking at each other silently, they went to find their mothers.

After the banquet began, Leonid took An An to greet other guests in the hall. Ren Zhouyuan was pulled by Anna and was forced to stay in the middle of their family. Fortunately, Ron accompanied him, otherwise the scene would have been as awkward as it could be.

Ron looked at him with a teasing look, and said with a little emotion, "I didn't have such a deep experience before, but now I don't know why I always feel that you, the boss's wife, are lingering."

Ren Zhouyuan: "…"

He suddenly remembered the "female companion" that Ron and Leonid discussed in the office. He thought that Leonid wanted to explain just now, but was interrupted by him. Now that he came back to his senses, he found that the problem was still unsolved.

He thought for a while, and when he was about to ask, he heard Ron looking at An An in the distance and said, "I also said that Leonid's female companion was going to become a man. How did I know that it's even more powerful now? She directly turned into a child. I don't know how many women's hearts will be broken tonight."

Ren Zhouyuan looked at him in surprise when he heard this, and there were countless curses running in his heart —

It turned out that the person who he was entangled with for so long and was jealous of for so long was actually himself!

He felt angry and amused at the same time. He felt that ever since he met Leonid, his IQ had begun to plummet. At this moment, he finally deeply felt the seriousness of the lack of communication. Ren Zhouyuan wanted to die when he thought about how he had so affectionately told Leonid that he was jealous of that "female companion."

He thought about it seriously. It wasn't that he was arrogant, but for some reason, he felt that the so-called "person" that he was jealous of was probably also himself …

Ren Zhouyuan covered his face, and his ears turned red. In his mind, a plan to take a beer bottle and knock it on Leonid's head flashed through. He didn't know if it would make him lose his memory a little and forget everything he had just said.

The banquet went on in an orderly manner. During this time, Leonid came back a few times. The two of them, who had just communicated, didn't seem to want to be apart for a moment. After the banquet was over and the family was sent to the hotel, the family of three drove home without stopping.

Ren Zhouyuan resisted the urge to look for Leonid. He quickly washed An An and coaxed him to go to sleep.

An An had seen his father and Big Papa quarrel for so many days. Today, the two of them were obviously different. He sat on the bed and sighed. He said to Ren Zhouyuan, "Dad, go sleep with Big Papa. I've grown up. I can sleep alone."

Ren Zhouyuan choked on his son's words. Was he being too obvious? He said some nonsense angrily and insisted on coaxing An An to sleep before sneaking into the master bedroom.

Leonid was leaning against the headboard reading a book. When he saw Ren Zhouyuan come in, he put down the book, lifted the quilt, and patted it, signaling him to hurry over.

Ren Zhouyuan felt like they were having an affair. He shook his head to get rid of the messy thoughts in his head. He unconsciously straightened his back and walked over.

They lay down. The sound of their heartbeats was particularly obvious in the quiet environment. They clearly wanted to get closer to each other, but at this time, both of them were a little reserved. They lay on the bed without moving or speaking.

Ren Zhouyuan moved his finger and slowly reached to the side. When he hooked Leonid's little finger, a part of his heart unexpectedly calmed down.

Leonid paused for a moment, a little surprised that Ren Zhouyuan would take the initiative. He wrapped his hand around Ren Zhouyuan's entire hand, then flipped over and hugged Ren Zhouyuan with his other empty hand.

The closeness of their bodies made the two forget the discomfort from two minutes ago. The excitement from the afternoon was instantly ignited.

Leonid kissed Ren Zhouyuan's eyelids. Under the quilt, their bodies were pressed together, their legs intertwined. It was as if they wanted to fill all the gaps between them, leaving no space.

Just as Ren Zhouyuan thought Leonid was going to do something, he suddenly heard him speak.

Leonid said, "I've held back these words all afternoon and all night. Before I start, I want to finish them with you first."

Ren Zhouyuan was stunned for a moment. He quickly realized what Leonid wanted to say, but before he could explain, he heard him say, "First of all, I've never 'liked' anyone. The only person I like has always been you."

Ren Zhouyuan buried his head in his shoulder awkwardly and nodded.

Leonid thought he was shy and didn't think much of it. He continued, "I thought about it for a long time. What went wrong that made you mistakenly think there was a third party between us? After thinking about it, it was probably the time when we went on a business trip to the maker base."

He explained, "What I said to Natasha that day was actually for you to hear." Leonid said in a low voice, "I know how much you value your family, so I said those words to bait you. I didn't expect my own cleverness to make a mistake, and I caused you to misunderstand for so long. I'm very sorry."

He paused and said, "Secondly, the 'female companion' you mentioned was something Ron used to make fun of me that day. I didn't know you heard it. If I knew you would misunderstand, I would've explained it at the time."

Ren Zhouyuan wanted to cover his mouth and stop him from talking. He had just figured it out this afternoon. He had hoped that Leonid wouldn't remember, but he had forgotten the man's serious personality.

Leonid said, "So you've also discovered that many of our conflicts are caused by holding back and not speaking up, which causes the problems to grow deeper and deeper. These things could have been avoided, but we let them happen, and in the end, they became a thorn in our hearts."

Ren Zhouyuan felt the same way. He was about to look up from Leonid's shoulder and say something, but Leonid pressed him down.

Ren Zhouyuan: "?"

Leonid coughed. His tone was clearly the same as before, but for some reason, Ren Zhouyuan could sense that he was trying to hide his discomfort.

He said, "So, in order to avoid conflict between us, there's one thing I have to resolve. When are you going to get rid of that friend of yours, Fan Wenfeng? "
