Chapter 149 Rowing on the Lake
Chapter 149 Rowing on the Lake
"The princess kissed the frog on the mouth, and the little frog suddenly turned into a handsome prince. From then on, they lived happily together..."
After Zhang Yang finished telling this story, he found Yingying had fallen into a deep sleep with her little hands hugging his thighs.
He patted her shoulder gently and pulled the quilt over the little girl.
When he looked up again, he found that Meng Ling had already put down the documents in her hand and was looking straight at him with her beautiful eyes.
Zhang Yang whispered, "Sister Ling, I'm going to go back to sleep first and come over tomorrow morning."
Meng Ling looked at his attentiveness, and felt warm in her heart. She smiled and said, "Don't leave yet. Come talk to me."
After saying that, she got out of bed, sat down on the chair next to the coffee table, and motioned Zhang Yang to sit next to her.
Chatting with clients is the most common thing, so Zhang Yang sat down next to her.
He poured himself a glass of water. He had just spent more than an hour telling stories to the little girl to put her to sleep, and now he needed to moisten his throat.
But Meng Ling stroked her hair and asked shyly, "Zhang Yang, have you ever thought about being Yingying's father for a long time?"
"Puff!" The water in Zhang Yang's mouth sprayed out directly. Although he adjusted the angle in time, it still sprayed onto Meng Ling's nightgown, and a large area between her legs became wet.
"Ah!" Meng Ling let out a soft moan and her whole body trembled.
"Sister Ling, I'm sorry, let me wipe it for you." Zhang Yang hurriedly pulled out a tissue from the tissue box and walked forward to wipe between her legs.
"Ah...uh..." Maybe because the water was a little hot, Meng Ling let out a few more moans and a blush appeared on her face, but she did not stop Zhang Yang from doing that on her skirt.
Seeing the large wet spot in the middle of her skirt, Zhang Yang said apologetically, "Sister Ling, I couldn't help but spray it out just now. I will take responsibility..."
"Responsible for what?" Meng Ling raised her eyes and looked at him.
"I'm responsible for taking it for dry cleaning."
"Oh...it's okay. I still have my nightgown. I can change into it later." Meng Ling didn't mean to blame him at all. She continued, "What I meant just now was, can you help me pick up Yingying after school and act as her temporary father?"
"That's what you mean. Of course I can. I also like to accompany Yingying, but I usually have to prepare my thesis, so sometimes I'm a little busy..."
"I also know that you are a bit busy right now. How about this? For 50,000 a month, you can temporarily pick up Yingying for me two days a week, and bring her back to me when I get off work."
Hearing 50,000 a month, Zhang Yang nodded silently: "Although I have to be busy preparing my thesis, Yingying can't live without her father's love. I will start to pick her up."
Seeing that he agreed, Meng Ling's face showed joy. She continued, "I have to send her home after picking her up. I usually come back around seven or eight."
Of course Zhang Yang had no objection to this small request from the customer. He liked children very much and was very happy to play with Yingying.
As for the thesis, I haven’t started it yet. I’ll find time to work on it later.
……
The next morning, there was a knock on Lin Xiaowan's door. She opened the door and saw that it was Zhang Yang, or rather the slightly greasy Zhang Yang.
She asked curiously, "What's wrong? So early?"
Zhang Yang said, "My second brother called me this morning and asked me to talk about something. I might be back a day later."
Somehow, Lin Xiaowan once again inexplicably felt like she didn't want to be with him, so she nodded and said, "Something's going on in the hospital and I can't leave for too long, so I'll go back first."
Zhang Yang said apologetically, "I'm sorry, he just told me that this morning."
Lin Xiaowan knew that her second brother was in a good mood because he had something to do. She understood that, and she also wanted to go back by herself, so she said, "Let's talk about business."
……
After half an hour.
Zhang Yang was about to go out to Meng Ling's room, but he was afraid of running into Lin Xiaowan and Sister Ling at the same time, so he took a look through the peephole first.
But I saw Dr. Lin open the door, pull the suitcase and leave the room alone.
Zhang Yang felt a little strange. She didn't call him or send him WeChat. Why did she leave immediately? But after thinking about it, he understood. Didn't she say last night that she wanted to keep her distance first?
Maybe she hasn't completely gotten over Shi Yuxuan's matter, and for the time being she wants to need my service after she returns. In that case, I should just go along with her wishes. I shouldn't disturb her and should look for her after I return to S City.
Today, let’s first provide good service to Sister Ling and Yingying.
……
Yuncheng Lake is a large lake, covering one-tenth of the area of the entire City B. There is an island in the lake that was left over from the Song Dynasty.
There is a tower on the island, and it is said that the three princesses of the Dragon Palace are imprisoned inside.
Legend has it that when she was young, she was rescued by a doctor named Xu Xian on the beach.
To repay him, she later came to City B and pledged herself to Xu Xian. She was pregnant for three years and gave birth to a baby for him, whom she named Naza.
When Naza grew up, he had extraordinary powers and caused trouble everywhere. Later, he even burned down the Golden Palace. The third princess still protected her son, which made the Heavenly Court furious and determined to deal with her and her son.
Later, the gods sent a monk named Fu Hai to suppress her and her child in a tower, and named the tower Leifeng Tower.
While rowing the rented wooden boat, Zhang Yang carefully told Yingying the story, which made the little girl nervous.
Meng Ling on the side was laughing. She didn't know how Zhang Yang made up this story. He mixed the stories of White Snake, Nezha and Monkey King together, and it didn't sound out of place.
"Dad, dad, are the third princess and Nazar really in that tower?" The little girl pointed at the tower on the island in the middle of the lake and said nervously.
Zhang Yang said seriously: "Of course there is!"
Meng Ling suppressed her laughter and asked, "How do you prove that the Third Princess of the Dragon Palace is inside?"
Zhang Yang said to Yingying mysteriously, "Have you ever eaten Yuncheng Lake hairy crabs?"
Yingying tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, "Yes, I ate it this year, and its paste was delicious!"
"The hairy crabs from Yuncheng Lake are the shrimp soldiers and crab generals that the Dragon King sends to pay homage to the Third Princess every year!"
Zhang Yang put down the oars, waved his hands, and made an exaggerated gesture towards the lake, as if there were really countless shrimp soldiers and crab generals in front of him.
Meng Ling laughed so hard that she doubled over. She hadn't expected that Zhang Yang's made-up stories about all sorts of things could be actually quite interesting.
"Dad, Dad, the third princess and Nazar are trapped in the Leifeng Tower. They are so pitiful. Let's rescue them." Yingying said, pulling the corner of Zhang Yang's clothes.
Zhang Yang said seriously, "Yingying, Dad wants to ask you, if you do something wrong, should you be spanked?"
Yingying pouted and looked at her mother. Meng Ling looked at her seriously and then turned to Zhang Yang and said, "Of course you will be beaten if you do something wrong."
Zhang Yang asked, "The Third Princess and Naza did something wrong. Should they be punished?"
Yingying thought for a while and said, "You will be punished."
Zhang Yang pointed to the tower on the island in the middle of the lake and asked, "Does Yingying still think they should be released?"
The little girl shook her head and said, "I know. They shouldn't be released."
Zhang Yang touched her little head and said, "Yingying is really smart."
"Then can I take a photo with my parents and this Leifeng Tower?" Yingying asked, blinking her big eyes.
Meng Ling looked at the child lovingly and said, "Of course, I'll come over and take a photo with you." She took off her life jacket and moved towards Zhang Yang and Yingying.
Zhang Yang frowned slightly and said, "Sister Ling, why don't you put on your life jacket?"
