Chapter 512: Asleep in One Second
The two of them talked for a good while before Jiang Ran brought up the main topic.
"The door to the East Courtyard is done. I want to order a sign, but I haven’t thought of what to write on it yet. Do you have any suggestions?"
"Let me think about it. I’ll tell you tomorrow."
"Alright!"
Since ordering a sign wasn’t an urgent matter, Jiang Ran gladly accepted Pei Huai’s offer to tell her the next day.
After a moment of thought, Jiang Ran also shared the news about Chen Bing and Shen Yueyue with Pei Huai.
Pei Huai wasn’t an outsider, so it was alright to tell him.
Pei Huai listened quietly to Jiang Ran and chuckled softly afterwards.
Although Pei Huai hadn’t said anything, just hearing his quiet laughter, Jiang Ran could guess why he was amused.
Pei Huai must have remembered when Chen Bing confidently claimed he would never get married.
It hadn’t been long since then, yet his mindset had changed so significantly.
Jiang Ran and Pei Huai chatted a little longer, then she looked up and saw Pei Jing.
Pei Jing was watching eagerly, making Jiang Ran’s heart soften, and she quickly waved him over.
Seeing this, Pei Jing ran over and jumped into Jiang Ran’s arms.
"Mommy."
After addressing Jiang Ran, Pei Jing turned towards the direction of the microphone and called out to Dad in his cute little voice.
On the other end of the phone, Pei Huai, hearing Pei Jing’s voice, smiled and called out to Little Jing.
Don’t underestimate children; they have the desire to express themselves too.
Especially toward parents who are not around, they have even more to say.
Jiang Ran lifted Pei Jing onto her lap, put the phone on speaker, and listened to Pei Jing chat with Pei Huai, occasionally chiming in herself.
Although such a scene was quite heartwarming, given a choice, Jiang Ran still wished she could chat face-to-face with Pei Huai, instead of only hearing his voice and not seeing the expressions on his face.
Thinking about this, it was inevitable that her mood would grow heavy.
But it was alright; days like these wouldn’t last much longer.
At most, wait another few months, and before the new year, Pei Huai would definitely come.
By then, Pei Huai probably wouldn’t leave again.
After chatting for about half an hour, Pei Jing began to yawn sleepily, and only then did Jiang Ran tell Pei Huai goodbye and hang up the phone.
At that time, phone calls were actually quite expensive.
Most people would hurry to say what they needed and wouldn’t usually make such long calls.
For them to chat for almost an hour like this was probably quite rare.
Even though it was a lengthy phone chat, the enjoyment of it made it feel worthwhile.
Jiang Ran carried Pei Jing back to the room, placed him on the bed, and he rolled into the blanket and fell asleep immediately.
Being able to sleep instantly is definitely a blessing.
Although Jiang Ran couldn’t fall asleep instantly, she also had good sleep quality.
After lying down for a short while, she gradually drifted off to sleep.
That night, Jiang Ran didn’t dream but slept soundly until the next morning.
After breakfast, Jiang Ran went to the East Courtyard and locked the door leading from the main courtyard to the East Courtyard with a big lock.
This big door had the same design on both sides, with door rings.
No matter which side it was, the door could be locked with a lock.
After locking the door, Jiang Ran opened the main gate of the East Courtyard and then didn’t bother with it, directly heading inside.
Whenever someone came, they could just come in directly.
