¡°Alright, go ahead, so he does not get anxious,¡± Li Rong smiled at Qin Xue.
¡°Sure.¡± Qin Xue did not want Chu Molin to worry.
¡°There¡¯s no significant problem with your wife. However, her amniotic fluid is a bit low which could lead to the babycking oxygen, so she needs to stay in the hospital for observation. Take this and get the hospitalization procedures started,¡± Li Rong sat down and began writing the rted documents, exining the situation to Chu Molin.
Chu Molin took the paperwork and went toplete the hospitalization procedures.
When Chu Molin went to make the payment, he encountered Li Dabao. Chu Molin directly handed over the money and papers to Li Dabao as he wanted to apany his wife.
¡°Did you get it done so quickly?¡± Qin Xue was surprised to see Chu Molin returning so soon.
¡°Da Bao is handling it,¡± Chu Molin came to his wife¡¯s side, looking down at her. He had never felt this scared before.
He was terrified that anything could happen to Qin Xue and their child. He even thought that if both the child and his wife were in danger, he would prefer his wife to be safe.
Although he didn¡¯t want anything to happen to the baby, he wanted her to be safe by his side even more.
Chu Molin knew his thoughts were selfish, but Qin Xue had be his obsession, he did not want to let go. If they lost the child, they could try for another one, but if Qin Xue was gone, he would really have nothing left.
Qin Xue just smiled at this, looking from him to her mother, her smile was very gentle.
¡°Qin Xue, you need to be careful. If the treatment doesn¡¯t help this time, we may have to inducebor early. So try to rest in bed as much as possible, don¡¯t move around too much,¡± Li Rong said this because she was afraid that some unexpected situation might happen to Qin Xue.
If something were to happen suddenly, it could beplicated.
¡°Doctor, do you mean Qin Xue should not move around too much, in case she suddenly goes intobor?¡± Nangong Shn thought about their original n.
At first, they were going to head back to the Qins vige as soon as Chu Molin recovered, but now with Qin Xue¡¯s sudden condition and the doctor¡¯s advice, they can¡¯t take Qin Xue back at this moment, what if something unexpected happens on the way?
¡°Yes, because she has low amniotic fluid, the baby could be suffocated at any time. Ifbor can¡¯t be induced in time, the baby is likely to suffocate in the womb,¡± Li Rong didn¡¯t quite understand why Nangong Shn was asking this, but felt obligated to inform them of the worst possible oue.

Nangong Shn nodded after hearing this and decided in her heart not to take Qin Xue back to the Qins¡¯ vige.
From Nangong Shn¡¯s questions, Chu Molin knew what his mother-inw was worried about.
He had heard Li Rong¡¯s words and was also prepared to talk to his mother-inw.
Now that he saw his mother-inw¡¯s expression, he knew that her thoughts were the same as his.
Because they both loved Qin Xue the most, and they both hoped for Qin Xue to be safe and sound.
¡°Vice-section chief, the paperwork has beenpleted.¡± As soon as Li Dabao entered, he handed the receipt and other documents to Chu Molin.
¡°Good, thank you for your hard work.¡± Chu Molin said to Li Dabao.
¡°Hehe, there¡¯s no need to be polite, vice-section chief. Helping you and sister-inw is what I should do.¡± Li Dabao was Chu Molin¡¯s assistant, specifically responsible for running errands for him.
Originally, a vice-section chief did not have a dedicated assistant, but Chu Molin¡¯s research tasks required him to go out frequently. He needed someone to handle the follow-up trivial matters for him, so Xie Jun assigned Li Dabao to him.
Thus, they had be a unique presence in their entire research institute.
Chu Molin put the receipt in his pocket, then helped Qin Xue to the ward with Nangong Shn, Li Dabao following behind them.
¡°Mom, you go back with Da Bao. I¡¯ll stay here with Xue¡¯er.¡± After settling down, Chu Molin asked Nangong Shn to go back with Li Dabao.
It was early in the morning, and everyone hadn¡¯t eaten yet.
¡°Alright, I¡¯ll go and bring you some food.¡± Nangong Shn didn¡¯t argue with her son-inw.
¡°Thank you, mom.¡± Chu Molin nodded in agreement. He could go hungry for a while, but he couldn¡¯t let Qin Xue go hungry.
After Nangong Shn and Li Dabao left, Chu Molin nced into the ward. Qin Xue was the only one in the room, which was very quiet.
Seeing the door closed by Li Dabao, Chu Molin took a seat on a chair next to the bed and looked at Qin Xue lying there.
¡°Why are you looking at me like that?¡± Qin Xue felt somewhat uneasy being stared at like that.
Chu Molin didn¡¯t speak but took Qin Xue¡¯s hand and kissed it.
Her hand tickled as it was kissed, and Qin Xue tried to pull it back but was held too tightly by Chu Molin to do so.
¡°Xue¡¯er, I didn¡¯t take good care of you.¡± Chu Molin said after a long silence.
¡°Silly, how can I me you for my low level of amniotic fluid?¡± Qin Xueughed in her heart. This man always tried to shoulder everything on his own.
¡°But you¡¯re in the hospital now.¡± Chu Molin didn¡¯t know how to express his inner thoughts.
¡°Well, yes, but it¡¯s not your fault.¡± Qin Xueughed and said.
Chu Molin stared at Qin Xue¡¯s smiling face.
His little wife really didn¡¯t me him and was still smiling softly, as usual.
¡°Chu Molin,e closer.¡± Qin Xue crooked her finger, signaling Chu Molin to move closer.
Chu Molin looked and obediently moved closer.
¡°Chu Molin, smile for me. You¡¯ve been frowning ever since we were at home. Don¡¯t you know I¡¯m really cold now? I¡¯m about to freeze to death, so please smile for me to warm me up.¡± Qin Xue used both her hands to pull the corners of Chu Molin¡¯s mouth outward, making a smiling face.
Chu Molin tried to rx his expression, lifting the corners of his mouth slightly.
¡°That¡¯s more like it, see how handsome you look.¡± Qin Xue touched his face and praised him.
He really was extremely handsome, and staring at him gave her an urge to kiss him.
Thinking of it, Qin Xue stuck out her tongue and licked her slightly dry lips.
Seeing Qin Xue¡¯s eyes and actions, Chu Molin finally sighed in relief. It seemed he was over-worrying.
Since his little wife was still in the mood to flirt with him, it meant that she was truly fine, and he could be at ease. So he rxed his expression and gave Qin Xue a somewhat charming smile.
Qin Xue looked at Chu Molin¡¯s smile and felt overwhelmed. It was pure temptation. She really wanted to kiss him. How could she resist? It was cheating to look so enticing. She really wanted to kiss him.

Chu Molin rubbed Qin Xue¡¯s hand, finger by finger, only now did he realize that he had been worried to the point of nearly losing his mind earlier. Fortunately, his self-control was strong enough, and he didn¡¯t take extreme actions.
¡°Chu Molin, what are you thinking about?¡± Qin Xue looked at the man fiddling with her hand.
¡°I¡¯m thinking, you can¡¯t go back with mom and them now, and mom can¡¯t always stay here to take care of you, what are you going to do?¡± Chu Molin is a soldier, and he can¡¯t arrange his time freely.
And her mother-inw needs to go home to take care of her own family, she cannot abandon her responsibilities at home to care for Qin Xue here permanently.
Now with Qin Xue¡¯s condition, she might give birth prematurely at any time, and Chu Molin certainly wouldn¡¯t be at ease leaving her alone.
¡°It¡¯s okay, I can take care of myself.¡± Once Qin Xue knew the reason, she didn¡¯t have to worry.
Because if that scenario were to arise, she could go into the spiritual space to absorb spiritual energy, which should benefit the fetus.
¡°I¡¯m not at ease if no one is with you.¡± Chu Molin had already been frightened once, how could he possibly leave Qin Xue alone like this?
¡°Then what should we do?¡± Qin Xue helplessly looked at him and asked.
¡°I¡¯m still thinking about it, how about hiring someone to specifically take care of you?¡± Chu Molin asked Qin Xue.
¡°Do you think it¡¯s easy to allow random people to enter and leave the military?¡± Qin Xue looked at Chu Molin and retorted.
¡°We could hire a military dependent to take care of you, but no, there are too many disputes among military wives.¡± Chu Molin said, then thought about it and felt it was not a feasible solution.
¡°Okay now, stop thinking about it. I will talk to mom, let her stay with me for a few more days. After my sister is on vacation, let here and apany me, what do you think?¡± Qin Xue was thinking about her younger sister who she mentioned to her mother a few days ago.
Unexpectedly, she now needed her sister¡¯spany for this reason so soon.
¡°That makes sense, let¡¯s do it then. We can discuss this with mother when she brings foodter.¡± Chu Molin agreed that this seems to be the only solution.
The coupleughed at each other after their discussion, feeling that life with goodmunication is very nice.
¡°Chu Molin, when are you going back to the team?¡± Qin Xue looked at him in his camouge uniform.
¡°I have not returned to the team yet, I was nning to go report tomorrow. But someone needs to be here to take care of you, so I¡¯ll dy it for a bit.¡± Chu Molin thought as he does not have any particrly dangerous tasks that he needs to execute recently, a dyed return to the team won¡¯t matter. After all, he had recovered from his injuries much earlier than nned.
¡°I saw you in a camouge uniform, I thought you were already back in training.¡± Qin Xue didn¡¯t expect he was returningter than she thought.
¡°I only went for a run this morning, I didn¡¯t join any training.¡± Chu Molin hadn¡¯t trained in a while, and he wanted to see if he had regressed.
¡°Oh.¡± Qin Xue felt a bit bored.
¡°Chu Molin, I¡¯m so bored.¡± Qin Xue gave Chu Molin a pitiful look.
¡°So what do you want to do?¡± Chu Molin asked.
¡°Get my bag for me.¡± Inside Qin Xue¡¯s bag were white papers and pencils, she could take them out to draw.
Chu Molin handed her the bag after hearing her request, wondering what she was going to do.
Qin Xue took the bag, unzipped it, and took out a stack of white paper and a pencil to start drawing.
Qin Xue had just started sketching when she caught a glimpse of Chu Molin out of the corner of her eye. Inspired, she immediately began to draw.
When Qin Xue put down her pencil, she couldn¡¯t help feeling a sense of excitement. The drawing looked so good.
¡°Chu Molin, look, isn¡¯t it beautiful?¡± Qin Xue showed Chu Molin the finished drawing.
Earlier, Chu Molin had only been looking at his wife and hadn¡¯t noticed what she was drawing. Now when Qin Xue passed him the paper, he took it curiously, and when he saw it, he was dumbstruck.

Chu Molin looked at the drawing in his hand, which depicted him with a big head and a small body. The more he looked at it, the stranger it seemed.
¡°What¡¯s wrong? Don¡¯t you like it?¡± Qin Xue asked, noticing Chu Molin¡¯s odd expression.
Chu Molin didn¡¯t know how to respond. The drawing was indeed strange, but it didn¡¯t look bad. He had just never seen this style of drawing before.
¡°It looks nice. I just think it¡¯s a bit weird,¡± Chu Molin decided not to hurt his wife¡¯s feelings.
¡°What¡¯s weird about it? I think it¡¯s cute!¡± Qin Xue grabbed the drawing from Chu Molin and looked at it again and again, not finding anything strange about it.
¡°Who has such a big head and small body? Isn¡¯t that strange?¡± Chu Molin wondered what went on in his wife¡¯s mind, as she could alwayse up with such peculiar ideas.
¡°Oh, you¡¯re talking about the drawing style. This is a Q version style, making the image look cute and adorable,¡± Qin Xue exined. She then quickly sketched an anime character on the paper.
¡°Look, which one is better? The one just now or this one?¡± Qin Xue showed Chu Molin both the anime and Q version drawings of himself.
Chu Molin marveled at the two lifelike drawings, amazed by his wife¡¯s artistry.
¡°They¡¯re both great, Xue¡¯er. How did you draw them so urately?¡± Chu Molin looked at the two different versions of himself ¨C the Q version looked happy and sweet, while the anime version was cool and aloof.
The most striking simrity between the two was the gaze in his eyes, which even he found unbelievable.
If the police had someone with such drawing skills, would they have any trouble drawing criminal suspects?
As Chu Molin thought about this, he felt that he¡¯d discovered another one of Qin Xue¡¯s talents. Perhaps she could help with certain tasks in the future.
¡°For this, you just need to focus on one thing ¨C the skull structure is fixed, no matter how a person¡¯s appearance changes, their facial structure in certain areas remains unchanged,¡± Qin Xue exined, pointing to her forehead and cheekbones.
Even advancements in cosmetic surgery wouldn¡¯t alter these key facial features ¨C people would simply get a nose job, chin sharpening, or double eyelid surgery.
¡°So you¡¯re saying that as long as we focus on these key features, we can identify someone no matter how their appearance changes?¡± Chu Molin asked excitedly.
¡°Yes, because these areas of the skull are the support structure for the head and face. If they were altered, it could cause a copse, much like the foundation of a house,¡± Qin Xue, a surgeon, exined, owing to her knowledge of human bone structure.
¡°Xue¡¯er, you¡¯re truly my lucky star,¡± Chu Molin said with excitement.
¡°Haha, you¡¯re exaggerating,¡± Qin Xue replied shyly.
¡°No, no, you don¡¯t understand. When we were on a mission before, gathering intel at a certain location, we received a notice to cooperate and assist the police. We had intelligence that the leader was present and conducting transactions, but we couldn¡¯t locate him at all. So many people were watching, yet nobody noticed how he managed to escape their surveince.
Now that you mentioned it, he might have used makeup and disguises, and ourck of knowledge in this area caused us to miss him.
But with your help, we can just use his original portrait, focus on the key features you mentioned, and create different variations. We might be able to find him then,¡± Chu Molin, who didn¡¯t participate in that mission, exined. However, heter received information instructing them to cooperate with the police action.
But they couldn¡¯t take any action if they couldn¡¯t locate the suspect. The case had been on hold until Qin Xue¡¯s insight provided the breakthrough they needed. How could Chu Molin not be excited?
He could ask Qin Xue to create sketches for the police.

Qin Xue looked at Chu Molin¡¯s expression and wondered if she had unintentionally helped him a lot.
Thinking that she could help Chu Molin, Qin Xue was also very happy.
¡°What kind of suspect makes you, the so-called Cold King who scares everyone, feel helpless?¡± Qin Xue suddenly became curious, could it be that stic surgery had already appeared in Hua Country at this time?
¡°The leader is very smart and has a strong anti-investigation capability.¡± Chu Molin thought about the fact that no matter how many manpower and police they deployed, they couldn¡¯t catch them, always just a little short.
Chu Molin felt that this leader was really a worthy opponent. Although the two had never met, just hearing about him was enough to know his abilities were strong.
Now, Chu Molin wanted to challenge this leader, curious about who was more powerful between them.
¡°Do you have a picture of that person? If so, show it to me, and maybe I can help you out.¡± Qin Xue also wanted to see what kind of person could make Chu Molin show such a look of admiration.
¡°I do, but the most important thing right now is you, you need to recover first.¡± Chu Molin thought that now that they knew the leader might have disguised himself, they could leave it to the portrait artist at the Public Security Bureau.
There¡¯s no need for his little wife to help with her illness.
¡°Alright then, if you guys have a way, I won¡¯t meddle any further.¡± Qin Xue said,ughing and joking.
¡°You, how can you say that about yourself?¡± Chu Molin pinched his little wife¡¯s nose with his finger.
¡°Isn¡¯t it true? It¡¯s not really our ce as ordinary people to know these things. What else would you call me asking for a picture but meddling?¡± Qin Xue stuck out her tongue as she spoke.
¡°You¡¡± Chu Molin looked at Qin Xue, feeling helpless and annoyed at her unyielding logic.
There were some things that not even he was allowed to know, let alone Qin Xue.
So Chu Molin didn¡¯t say much more.
After ying around, Qin Xue picked up the pen and started sketching.
The baby in her belly was still protesting, making it hard for Qin Xue to concentrate on drawing, so she simply put the pen and paper away.
¡°Why aren¡¯t you drawing anymore?¡± Chu Molin looked at Qin Xue¡¯s actions and asked.
¡°It¡¯s all thanks to your two little treasures.¡± Qin Xue said, cing Chu Molin¡¯s hand on her belly.
Chu Molin felt the vibrations under his hand as he gently stroked her belly, asionally tapping it lightly as well.
As Chu Molin stroked her belly, Qin Xue grew sleepy andfortable, eventually falling asleep.
When Chu Molin saw that Qin Xue hadn¡¯t responded for a while, he looked up and discovered that she had already fallen asleep at some point.
He removed his hand, pulled a light nket from the side, and covered her belly with it.
Chu Molin¡¯s heart was now somewhat restless and excited.
He found that the baby in Qin Xue¡¯s belly actually understood him.
Just now, as he was stroking and tapping Qin Xue¡¯s belly, he was sending Morse code messages.
He was telling the babies that their mother was working hard and they should behave, waiting for the right time toe out.
But the babies¡¯ reactions were somewhat intense, as if they wanted toe out early.
After his soothing, the babies in Qin Xue¡¯s belly finally calmed down a bit, and as themotion in her belly subsided, his little wife fell asleep.
Chu Molin didn¡¯t know if other people¡¯s children had thoughts in their bellies?
But his own children seemed to be quite intelligent, understanding his gestures and intentions at just over eight months.
Chu Molin didn¡¯t know how brilliant these two children would be after they were born, but no matter what, they were his and Qin Xue¡¯s children.
If asked why Chu Molin could ept this phenomenon so easily, he could only say it was because he had an extraordinary wife.

When Nangong Shn brought the food, she saw that Qin Xue was sleeping soundly, so she asked Chu Molin to eat first.
¡°Molin,e and eat. I¡¯ll keep an eye on Qin Xue.¡± Nangong Shn put the food on the table and called her son-inw over.
¡°Mom, have you eaten yet?¡± Chu Molin asked his mother-inw.
¡°I already ate, you go ahead.¡± Nangong Shn had already eaten with her son when she went back home, as he was waiting for her by the door after his training.
So she apanied her son for dinner before bringing the food to the hospital, and she briefed her son about Qin Xue¡¯s situation as well.
After hearing about it, her son also agreed for Qin Xue to stay here instead of going back to H Province with them.
Initially, her son suggested that she stay here to take care of Qin Xue while he took care of things at home.
But Nangong Shn knew that Qin Yu liked it here, so she didn¡¯t want her son to follow her back home but instead wanted him to stay here and look after their elder daughter.
Later, her son mentioned that their younger daughter would be on vacation soon. Why not let here and stay with her sister? That way, they could feel more at ease.
Nangong Shn thought that was a good idea, so she agreed to it.
Once her elder daughter had recovered, she would go back and let their younger daughtere.
She woulde back to serve her elder daughter¡¯s confinement period when the due date approached.
The mother and son quickly finished their meal after discussing things, and came to the hospital with the food.
They didn¡¯t expect that their elder daughter was already asleep, so they had to put the food in hot water to keep it warm until she woke up.
Chu Molin was relieved to know that his mother-inw had eaten, so he went to eat the food slowly.
After Chu Molin finished eating, he asked his mother-inw to go back and rest. He would take care of his wife. Nangong Shn thought it was good for the couple to spend more time together, and she could also go back home and make soup for her daughter, so she agreed and left.
Qin Xue was awakened by her hunger and saw Chu Molin writing something when she opened her eyes.
¡°Awake? Are you hungry?¡± Chu Molin looked up at his wife when he heard her stirring.
¡°Yeah, I¡¯m so hungry.¡± Qin Xue held her stomach and cried out.
¡°Hold on, I¡¯ll get you some food.¡± Chu Molin took the food out of the hot water.
Chu Molin had been diligently changing the hot water to keep the food warm, so it was still hot when Qin Xue woke up.
¡°The food is still hot, eat slowly.¡± Chu Molin wiped the water off the bottom of the container before handing it to Qin Xue.
¡°Alright, I know.¡± Qin Xue felt so hungry that she could eat a whole cow, and she began to eat the food inrge bites. She didn¡¯t even remember Chu Molin telling her to eat slowly just now.
Chu Molin just shook his head and let her be, sitting in his chair and continuing to write his ns.
After Qin Xue finished eating, she finally felt full of energy again.
¡°People are iron and food is steel, you get anxious if you miss a meal, that¡¯s so true! I almost starved to death.¡± Qin Xue said with a thousand emotions.
¡°You were still able to sleep that long while hungry.¡± Chu Molin looked up at his wife with a nce.
¡°When you¡¯re asleep, you don¡¯t feel hungry.¡± Qin Xue stuck out her tongue in response.
¡°You always have your way of saying things.¡± Chu Molin went to wash the container.
¡°That¡¯s just how it is, alright?¡± Qin Xue was like this before, too. Once she slept, she didn¡¯t feel hungry at all, but the moment she woke up, she would cry out that she was starving.
Who would have thought that this habit of hers hadn¡¯t changed even after being in a new era and environment?
Qin Xue got up to put on her shoes and go to the bathroom. Although she hadn¡¯t drunk any water today, people do have emergency needs.
And so, Qin Xue stayed in the hospital for three days until the baby in her belly had stabilized before she went toplete the discharge procedures.
¡°Time to go home!¡± Qin Xue walked in the front with her bag, while Chu Molin carried the toiletries behind her. The couple walked out of the hospital, one in front and one behind.

After Qin Xue and Chu Molin got into the car, Qin Xue noticed something strange.
¡°Ding Xi, why are you here? Shouldn¡¯t Da Bao be the one picking us up?¡± Qin Xue asked, looking at Ding Xi who was in the driver¡¯s seat.
¡°Sister-inw, is it not good for me to pick you up?¡± Ding Xi was heartbroken. Although Li Dabao should have been the one toe, what was wrong with himing instead?
¡°It¡¯s not that it¡¯s not good, it¡¯s just strange.¡± Qin Xue addressed Chu Molin without uttering a word.
Chu Molin raised an eyebrow: ¡°He¡¯s pursuing a gentlewoman with a gentleman¡¯s duty.¡±
¡°Ah, any news? Tell me quickly.¡± Qin Xue became intrigued as soon as she heard this.
¡°Deputy Chief, are you trying to undermine me?¡± Ding Xiined with a bitter face.
¡°Tell me quickly, what¡¯s going on?¡± Qin Xue was genuinely curious. She didn¡¯t know what had happened while she was in the hospital for the past few days.
Chu Molin looked at Qin Xue¡¯s gossipy face, his eyes filled with indulgence. Loving someone, whether it¡¯s their strengths or faults, it was all the same to him.
¡°Sister-inw, can we talk about thister?¡± Ding Xi looked at Qin Xue with a glimmer of hope.
¡°What do you think?¡± Qin Xue had been bedridden for the past few days and was incredibly bored.
¡°I have fallen for your attending physician.¡± Ding Xi, seeing there was no escape, closed his eyes and shouted out loud.
¡°What? You fell for Li Rong? When did this happen?¡± Qin Xue was genuinely surprised.
¡°It was the day before yesterday when you were just admitted to the hospital. I had some business with the boss, and I ran into her around the corner. So¡¡± Ding Xi admitted to his crush on Li Rong.
¡°So you¡¯ve been hanging around here for a reason.¡± Qin Xue eyed Ding Xi, who seemed genuinely innocent.
¡°Sister-inw, it¡¯s not quite like that. I¡¯m the same age as the boss, and his child is about to be born, while I have no idea where my wife is. When I finally found someone I like, I had to chase her diligently. Don¡¯t you think so?¡± Ding Xi had found Li Rong very attractive when he first saw her.
Upon learning that she was single, Ding Xi naturally tried his best to pursue his happiness.
That¡¯s why he had been frequently appearing at the hospital these days.
However, he always came after work.
Knowing this, Chu Molin did not stop him. After all, for those in their profession, marriage was always difficult.
Chu Molin couldn¡¯t possibly stand in the way when Ding Xi has finally found someone he liked.
¡°You¡¯re right, but you have to know something. Li Rong is not the kind of woman you can neglect.¡± Qin Xue had a deep understanding of this practical and strong woman Li Rong.
Wasn¡¯t her best friend from her previous life just like that?
Qin Xue thought that Beiying, who wasn¡¯t someone easily handled. And Li Rong, both in character and work, was very simr to Beiying. Hence, Ding Xi had a long chase ahead of him if he liked Li Rong.
What Qin Xue didn¡¯t know was, when one¡¯s fate arrives, one¡¯s state of mind changes. This was true for Beiying and Li Rong. They were just going through some hurdles. Of course, this is a story for another time, let¡¯s not digress.
Coming back to the point, Ding Xi wasn¡¯t without hope in pursuing Li Rong. After all, they say perseverance pays off.
As long as Ding Xi had determination and thick skin, he would definitely win Li Rong over. Whether he could seed or not depended on how thick-faced Ding Xi was.
¡°Sister-inw, do you have any good ideas or advice?¡± Ding Xi asked with hope.
Qin Xue nced at Chu Molin and then at Ding Xi and said four words: ¡°Persist till the end.¡±

Ding Xi thought it over and over again after hearing this. He felt that although Qin Xue¡¯s approach was a bit clich¨¦, it was indeed the most effective one.
¡°I got it, thank you, sister-inw.¡± Ding Xi nodded seriously.
¡°Let me make it clear first, you can¡¯t tell Li Rong that this idea is mine.¡± Qin Xue had a good impression of Li Rong and thought she was a nice woman, so she gave Ding Xi this suggestion.
¡°Don¡¯t worry, sister-inw. I will never betray you.¡± Ding Xi swore.
¡°I¡¯m not afraid if you betray me, but if you¡¯re not afraid of what I¡¯ll say in front of Li Rong, just go ahead and spill it.¡± Qin Xue said proudly.
¡°Sister-inw, that¡¯s not fair. Big brother, aren¡¯t you gonna control your wife a little?¡± Ding Xi looked at Qin Xue and Chu Molin with a grieving face.
¡°I think my wife is doing just fine, no need to control her.¡± Chu Molin looked at Ding Xi and thought he was really a clueless guy. Between his brother and his wife, he would definitely choose to stand by his wife¡¯s side.
¡°Big brother, is it really okay to show off your love like this?¡± Ding Xi felt heartbroken being fed with dog food (Chinese ng: the feeling of being single and watching couples expressing love to each other).
¡°I think it¡¯s great, have you had enough?¡± Qin Xue chuckled and asked Ding Xi after hearing Chu Molin¡¯s words.
¡°Fine, I¡¯ll shut up, okay? Now I know that it¡¯s deadly when you two, husband and wife, gang up against someone.¡± Ding Xi couldn¡¯t win an argument against the couple by himself, so he chose to shut up for the sake of his little heart.
Qin Xue looked at Chu Molin with a smile and stuck out her tongue, asking him with her eyes: is it really okay to bully your brother like this?
Chu Molin returned her gaze: there¡¯s nothing wrong with that, in my heart, my wife is more important.
Sitting in the front, Ding Xi saw the interaction between his department head and his wife through the rearview mirror and thought to himself, when could he and his wife be like that?
The three of them chatted andughed along the way and quickly arrived home.
¡°Phew, finally home, it¡¯s still morefortable at home.¡± Qin Xue put her bag on the table and sat down on a chair.
¡°Qin Xue, go wash up ande eat.¡± Nangong Shn didn¡¯t go to pick up her daughter from the hospital today.
She stayed at home preparing the meal, so they could eat as soon as her daughter returned home.
¡°Got it, thank you, mom. You¡¯ve worked hard.¡± Qin Xue hugged her mother and said.
¡°Molin, you and this littlerade should also wash up ande eat.¡± Nangong Shn looked at Chu Molin and Ding Xi and called out.
¡°Alright.¡± Chu Molin replied and took his luggage back to his room.
¡°Thank you, Auntie.¡± Ding Xi smiled and thanked Nangong Shn.
¡°I should be the one thanking you for picking up my daughter and son-inw.¡± Nangong Shn waved her hand.
¡°Auntie, you¡¯re too polite.¡± Ding Xi didn¡¯t dare to ept Nangong Shn¡¯s thanks.
¡°Alright, you two, stop being polite with each other and sit down to eat.¡± Qin Xue came out after washing her hands and saw Ding Xi and her mother exchanging thank-you¡¯s back and forth.
¡°Sis, you¡¯re back? Are you okay?¡± Qin Yu asked as soon as he saw his sister.
¡°I¡¯m back, what could happen to me? You guys are just too worried.¡± Qin Xue had said hundreds of times that she was fine, but her family was still so concerned about her.
¡°As long as you¡¯re fine. I¡¯m nning to send mom back in a few days and bring my little sister here to apany you.¡± Qin Yu had discussed this matter with his mother.
¡°Can¡¯t the whole familye here?¡± Qin Xue thought there was no amodation here, but she could buy a house.
Because the effect of the TV advertisement was excellent, there were many orders at the factory recently, and the clothes sold were in short supply.
She could get a generous dividend, and with Xiao Qi¡¯s dividend, they could altogether buy a very big house. Even if the whole family came here, they could all livefortably.

If the whole familyes here, she could find something for her parents to do, so they don¡¯t have to work so hard farming. And if they¡¯re all together, they can take care of each other.
¡°I can¡¯te over here, there¡¯s still grandpa and grandma to take care of at home,¡± Nangong Shn said, immediately objecting.
¡°Then let¡¯s bring grandpa and grandma over too,¡± Qin Xue thought if the two elders were willing, it wouldn¡¯t be impossible.
¡°Grandpa and grandma won¡¯te, uncle and aunt aren¡¯t around. And Qiu-jie is getting married soon, as soon as she gets married, she will go to Cloud¡¯s ce, grandpa and grandma won¡¯te as they have to take care of the house,¡± Qin Yu said slowly.
¡°Ah, there are brothers and sisters in the family?¡± Qin Xue eximed.
¡°Yeah, you didn¡¯t forget that too, did you?¡± Qin Yu looked at Qin Xue and asked.
¡°Hehe,¡± Qin Xueughed awkwardly.
¡°It¡¯s okay, you¡¯ll remember slowly,¡± Nangong Shn looked at the embarrassed Qin Xue, feeling a little hurt for her daughter, who had suffered so much.
¡°Sister, don¡¯t worry, if there¡¯s anything you don¡¯t know, just ask me. I¡¯ll never let anyone bully you,¡± Qin Yu promised, clenching his fist.
¡°I believe you,¡± Qin Xue believed that Qin Yu would keep his word.
¡°Alright, let¡¯s eat before the food gets cold,¡± Qin Xue saw Chu Molining and called everyone to start the meal.
¡°Wow, today¡¯s dishes are so rich!¡± Qin Xuemented, looking at the dishes on the table.
¡°It¡¯s specially prepared for your discharge from the hospital,¡± Nangong Shn bought dishes ording to Chu Molin¡¯s preferences, just to cater to Qin Xue¡¯s taste.
¡°Mom, you¡¯re so nice,¡± Qin Xue smiled sweetly.
¡°It¡¯s all because of Molin,¡± Nangong Shn didn¡¯t take all the credit herself.
¡°Chu Molin, thank you,¡± Qin Xue turned to her husband and smiled in gratitude.
¡°As long as you like it,¡± Chu Molin¡¯s cool face softened a bit.
The few of them sat down to eat,ughing and chatting, it was lively.
After finish eating, Qin Yu helped his mother clean up the dishes, and then the family sat in the living room chatting.
¡°Qin Xue, Molin, I n to go back the day after tomorrow. I¡¯ll ask Xiao Yu to send me back, and then he¡¯ll bring Jiale here. This way both siblings can stay here to take care of Qin Xue while you go to work. So you won¡¯t have to worry about her not being taken care of,¡± Nangong Shn told her son and daughter the results of their discussion.
¡°Mom, I want you to stay and apany me,¡± Qin Xue said, clinging to her mother¡¯s arm.
¡°There are a lot of things at home, and I can¡¯t stay here all the time. Let your little sister and brother take care of you, and when it¡¯s time for your confinement period, I¡¯lle over and take care of you,¡± Nangong Shn exined, patting Qin Xue¡¯s hand.
¡°Oh, I understand,¡± Qin Xue said with a somewhat downcast mood. She had just spent a little time with her mother and now they were going to be apart again, her heart heavy with sadness.
¡°Xue¡¯er, didn¡¯t mom say she¡¯lle back when you give birth?¡± Chu Molin looked at Qin Xue¡¯s slightly unhappy face.
¡°Yes, don¡¯t be willful,¡± Nangong Shn looked at her daughter somewhat helplessly.
¡°Okay, I understand,¡± Qin Xue adjusted her mood.
¡°Qin Xue, I¡¯ll pick up the clothes tomorrow and take them back,¡± Nangong Shn remembered she hadn¡¯t had time to pick up the clothes Fang Xiu made for her parents-inw since her daughter had been hospitalized for several days.
Since she was going to leave the day after tomorrow, she could pack her luggage after picking up the clothes tomorrow.
¡°Oh, how could I have forgotten that,¡± Qin Xue pped her head, her memory was really bad.
In fact, it wasn¡¯t that Qin Xue¡¯s memory was bad, but she had too many things to think about and had just temporarily forgotten.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for Nangong Shn to go back.
¡°Mom, take this with you. Buy more delicious and nutritious food when you go back,¡± said Qin Xue, putting US$ 200 in her mother¡¯s hands.
¡°Xue, you need money for raising children. Keep it, we have money at home. You don¡¯t need to give me money,¡± Nangong Shn tried to return the money to Qin Xue.
¡°Mom, just take it. You also see that I can earn money myself. I have money to use, so you don¡¯t have to worry about me.¡± Qin Xue refused to take the money back.
¡°But¡¡± Nangong Shn hesitated, looking at her daughter.
¡°No more ¡®buts¡¯, just keep the money. Mom, let¡¯s go downstairs and wait for Chu Molin.¡± Qin Xue believed that Molin would be back soon after finding a car.
¡°Alright, let¡¯s go down and wait.¡± Nangong Shn picked up the luggage at her feet.
¡°Mom, let me carry one for you.¡± Qin Xue, seeing several pieces of luggage at her mother¡¯s feet, spoke up.
¡°No need, it¡¯s not heavy. I can carry it by myself,¡± Nangong Shn wouldn¡¯t let her daughter carry the luggage.
¡°It¡¯s okay, Mom. You just said it¡¯s not heavy. Just give me one to carry.¡± Qin Xue took one of the bags from her mother¡¯s hands.
Nangong Shn, seeing her daughter¡¯s determination, allowed her to help carry two light bags.
All these things were prepared by Qin Xue for her mother: clothes, food, and necessities. They were practically everything she could ever need.
The mostforting thing for her during this trip was seeing her eldest daughter bing so sensible.
¡°Mom, remember that if possible, you and dad shoulde here and stop farming. It¡¯s too hard.
When youe, I can find you some things to do so you won¡¯t have to work so hard.¡± Qin Xue truly didn¡¯t want her parents to continue the backbreaking work of farming, which provided them with only a modest ie for their basic needs.
If her parents were toe, she could have them open a shop. Although running a restaurant was also hard work, it was still better than working on the farm under the sun and rain.
¡°Xue, I know you are filial, but some things have to be discussed with Molin.
Don¡¯t act on your own, okay?¡± Nangong Shn was afraid that Qin Xue would be headstrong and act without consulting Molin first.
This was a major taboo in a marriage. Regardless of the couple¡¯s rtionship, if one of them acted without considering the other¡¯s opinion, it could bring a negative effect on their rtionship.
¡°Don¡¯t worry, Mom. Chu Molin doesn¡¯t interfere with my work. He said as long as I¡¯m happy, it¡¯s fine.¡± Qin Xue thought of Molin¡¯s words.
¡°But you can¡¯t take advantage of his indulgence to act recklessly, okay?¡± Nangong Shn reminded her daughter with concern.
¡°Alright, I know. Just rx, Mom.¡± Qin Xue would have reassured her mother by patting her chest if her hands were not full with luggage.
¡°After you go back, don¡¯t run around making Molin worry. If anything happens, just write us a letter or send a telegram.¡± Nangong Shn kept giving advice to her daughter.
When they got downstairs, Chu Molin and his group happened to arrive.
Qin Yu got out of the car and helped Chu Molin put the luggage in the car.
¡°Mom, Xiao Yu, take care of yourselves when you go back home. Be careful of thieves on the train, alright?¡± Qin Xue suddenly remembered that there were many pickpockets on trains.
¡°Don¡¯t worry, sis. I¡¯ll take good care of mom,¡± Qin Yu reassured his sister.
¡°Xiao Yu, here¡¯s this for you. When you and your sistere here, I¡¯ll tell you some good news.¡± Qin Xue gave her brother US$ 100.
¡°Sis, I don¡¯t want your money. Keep it for yourself.¡± How could Qin Yu ept his sister¡¯s money?
¡°If I¡¯m giving it to you, just keep it. As a young man, you should always have some money on you.¡± Qin Xue knew that men, regardless of how much money they had, should always have some cash on hand.

After hearing his sister¡¯s words, Qin Yu felt deeply moved.
In all his years, apart from the living expenses given by his family when he studied, he never carried any money on him. Now, his sister has given him a hundred.
This one hundred dors was not a small amount, but his sister insisted on giving it to him. How could he not be moved by this? It was his sister, who shared the same mother, and the same father with him.
¡°Take it, my husband knows about it too,¡± said Qin Xue, worried that Qin Yu might not dare to ept it.
¡°Alright, thank them for me.¡± Qin Yu figured that he needed some capital to start his business. He considered this a loan from his sister. Although one hundred dors might not be enough for a business, he could start small and repay his sister once he¡¯s made some money.
¡°We¡¯re all family, no need for formalities.¡± Qin Xue patted her brother¡¯s shoulder andughed.
After Qin Xue sent her brother and mother off, she returned home.
The house, once full of noise and excitement, had suddenly be quiet. It took some getting used to.
Locking the door behind her, Qin Xue entered the otherworldly space. She needed to get the herbs organized.
¡°Master, you haven¡¯t visited for a long time.¡± Xue Lingined as soon as she saw Qin Xue.
¡°Uh, there were some problems and I had to stay in the hospital for a few days.¡± Qin Xue looked helplessly at her adorable spiritual pet.
¡°Actually, you didn¡¯t need to be admitted into the hospital. As long as you came into the space and breathed some spiritual energy to nourish the baby, it would¡¯ve been alright,¡± Xue Ling said, looking at Qin Xue¡¯s stomach, referring to the already very clever children.
¡°At that time, my mother and brother couldn¡¯te in, so, I had no choice but to go to the hospital. Xue Ling, thanks for bringing me here and letting me see my mother,¡± Qin Xue finally understood why Xue Ling saidst time that she would thank it.
Indeed, because she had got to see her dearly missed mother here, didn¡¯t Qin Xue have to thank Xue Ling?
¡°Master, it was because the bond between mother and daughter had not yet ended.¡± Xue Ling said cutely.
¡°No matter what, I have to thank you.¡± Qin Xue picked up Xue Ling and gave it a kiss.
¡°Hehe, then make a delicious dish for me as a way to express your thanks.¡± Xue Ling liked cooked food a lot.
¡°Sure, what do you want to eat?¡± Qin Xue asked Xue Ling.
¡°I want stir-fried spiritual bamboo shoots, braised spiritual mouse, and fish slice porridge.¡± As soon as Xue Ling heard the question, it told Qin Xue what it wanted to eat.
¡°You little thing, you have quite an appetite.¡± As Qin Xue listened, she found that she wanted to eat those dishes too.
¡°Hehe, will you make it for me, master?¡± Xue Ling looked at Qin Xue eagerly.
¡°Sure, but as usual, you go and catch them, I will cook. Try to catch some extra.¡± Qin Xue thought that she could cook some extra while she was at it, since she craved the dishes too.
¡°Yes, master. I will go and catch the spiritual mouse now.¡± Xue Ling scurried off to catch the mouse.
Qin Xue ssified and sorted the herbs that Xue Ling brought back. She intended to process these herbs into various easy-to-carry haemostatic medicines and pills.
Qin Xue immediately started sorting the herbs. She still needed to buy a set of pharmaceutical tools for grinding and decocting the herbs. She felt sure that Chu Molin would be fast to recover and take on assignments soon.
No matter what, she had to make enough for him to carry for self-protection.
After finishing sorting the herbs, Qin Xue reached for a basket and started to pick the ripe chili peppers. She could make chili sauce when she went to buy the jars with the tools.
Even though Qin Xue was heavily pregnant, she moved quite swiftly.
Chu Molin had gone to drop off her mother and brother, so she wasn¡¯t worried that he woulde back at this time.
Qin Xue took advantage of this time to get things done. Once Chu Molin returned, she wouldn¡¯t be able to step into the space to work.

Qin Xue was quick on her end, and Xue Ling was not slow either. Three spiritual bamboo rats were alreadyid out on the ground.
A white shadow shed, and Xue Ling emerged with a spiritual mouse in its mouth.
Looking at the four bamboo rats, Xue Ling thought it should be enough.
After putting down the bamboo rat in its mouth, Xue Ling leaped into the bamboo forest and started to dig bamboo shoots with its front paws.
After following Qin Xue, Xue Ling learned that if you want to eat something delicious, you have to prepare it yourself.
So, in order to enjoy the food it desired, it devoted itself wholeheartedly to preparing the ingredients.
Qin Xue and Xue Ling went about their own tasks, not disturbing each other. After Qin Xue finished picking the peppers and preparing the herbs, she stood up and rubbed her sore waist.
Wondering why Xue Ling hadn¡¯t returned yet, she saw a white shadow swiftly appear before her.
¡°Master, I¡¯ve already prepared everything. Can we start now?¡± Xue Ling looked at Qin Xue with anticipation.
¡°Alright, let¡¯s begin.¡± Although Qin Xue was extremely tired, she didn¡¯t want to disappoint her cute little pet, so she started to clean the bamboo rats with her exhausted body.
As Qin Xue prepared the ingredients, Xue Ling watched from the side, asionally helping with peeling.
When the ingredients were ready, Xue Ling could already smell the delicious aroma, and its mouth began to water. It was truly too fragrant.
The same could be said for Qin Xue, who drooled as she cooked.
Once the food was on the table, one person and one pet tucked in heartily.
¡°Phew, I¡¯m so full.¡± Xue Ling eximed, hugging its round belly.
¡°I¡¯m also really full.¡± Qin Xue rubbed her stomach, feeling immensely satisfied with the meal.
¡°What about those?¡± Xue Ling pointed to the leftover food and asked.
¡°Those are for Chu Molin.¡± Qin Xue didn¡¯t care what Chu Molin would think when he saw the bamboo shoots. She didn¡¯t n to hide anything anymore. Whether he could discover her secret or not, would depend on his own capabilities.
¡°Hehe, it seems Master is ready to bepletely forting.¡± Xue Ling said teasingly.
¡°I¡¯m not beingpletely forting, I just don¡¯t want to hide anything. Whether or not he can discover my secret is up to his observational skills and intelligence.¡± Qin Xue pointed to her head as she spoke.
¡°Master, sometimes underestimating someone cane back to bite you.¡± Xue Ling warned Qin Xue coolly.
¡°I¡¯m not underestimating him, it¡¯s just that I¡¯m not someone who can keep secrets very well. Do you think it¡¯s possible for me to not let a big bad wolf discover my secret?¡± Although Qin Xue wasn¡¯t a gossip, she wasn¡¯t the most cunning person, either.
So, it was only a matter of time before Chu Molin discovered her secret.
Qin Xue had observed Chu Molin for a long time. She knew his character and believed that he wouldn¡¯t betray her.
So Qin Xue¡¯s secret was just waiting for that man to uncover.
¡°Uh, that¡¯s indeed a problem, Master. Haven¡¯t you ever wondered if maybe you¡¯ve already been exposed, but he just hasn¡¯t said anything yet? Do you think there¡¯s a possibility?¡± Xue Ling analyzed Chu Molin¡¯s mindset.
It had to be said that Xue Ling was indeed insightful. Qin Xue just didn¡¯t have the confidence to think about whether she had been exposed or not.
¡°Shouldn¡¯t be, right? Although I haven¡¯t deliberately hidden, it shouldn¡¯t be so easy to be discovered, right?¡± Qin Xue muttered to herself with some uncertainty.
¡°Even you¡¯re not sure, how can you expect others not to discover a single thing?¡± Xue Ling looked at its foolish master, somewhat speechless.
How did it end up following this stupid woman who had lifted its seal back then?
However, no matter how much disdain Xue Ling showed in its actions, its eyes told others that it didn¡¯t really despise Qin Xue that much.
Maybe this was fate. If it wanted to transform into a human form and increase its cultivation, it had to start from scratch.

Chapter 397: 391: Qin Chaoyang and his Wife

Today, something happened in the Qin family in Qin Vige.
Qin Lei looked at his elder brother and sister-inw who suddenly returned, not knowing what had happened.
¡°Big brother, sister-inw.¡± Qin Lei looked at the people who appeared in his house.
¡°Lei, are mom and dad in your house?¡± Qin Chaoyang asked his younger brother.
¡°Yes, they¡¯re in the inner room. Big brother, sister-inw,e in and sit down.¡± Qin Lei invited his brother and sister-inw into the house.
¡°We came back and saw our house locked, so we figured mom and dad must be at your ce.¡± Lin Cuiping and her husband followed their brother-inw into the inner room.
¡°Mom, dad, big brother and sister-inw are back!¡± Qin Lei called out to his parents in the inner room.
As soon as Mr. and Mrs. Qin heard their younger son¡¯s words, they hurried out from the inner room.
¡°Elder son, daughter-inw, why did youe back at this time?¡± Mrs. Qin was surprised to see her eldest son and daughter-inw return unexpectedly, without any notice.
¡°Mom and dad, let¡¯s talk in our room.¡± Qin Chaoyang looked at his elderly parents, feeling a bit regretful. He should have provided them with afortable life in their old age. Instead, they now had to worry about him and his family.
¡°Elder son, did something happen?¡± As soon as Mrs. Qin sat down, she questioned Qin Chaoyang.
¡°Mom, we¡¡± Qin Chaoyang didn¡¯t know how to tell his parents properly.
Seeing the look on Qin Chaoyang¡¯s face, Mrs. Qin¡¯s heart sank. Had something serious really happened?
¡°Daughter-inw, you speak.¡± Mrs. Qin didn¡¯t expect her son to reveal anything.
¡°Mom, dad, it¡¯s about Cloud. She¡¯s in trouble.¡± Lin Cuiping choked as she spoke.
¡°What happened to Cloud?¡± Mr. Qin roared.
¡°It¡¯s all because of Li Kun, Qiu¡¯s boyfriend. We were going to let them get married in the fall. But it turned out that Li Kun was unfaithful to Qiu and had an affair with another woman.
When Cloud found out, she went to confront Li Kun, but they ended up fighting.
Cloud broke Li Kun¡¯s leg, and the Li family reported her to the police. She¡¯s been taken to the police station.
The Li family said they would only drop the matter if we give them US$ 500. But we don¡¯t have that much money.
Having no other choice, we had toe back to figure out if there¡¯s any other solution.¡± Lin Cuiping recalled the time when the matchmaker had introduced Qiu to the Li family.
They had inquired about the Li family back then, and the feedback had been positive. That¡¯s why they had decided to let Qin Qiu date Li Kun.
Who would have guessed that Li Kun would turn out to be such a greedy, unfaithful person and the Li family would be so unprincipled?
Now, she felt relieved that they had discovered this issue before the marriage. Otherwise, her daughter would suffer even more after marrying into the Li family.
¡°What about Qiu?¡± Mrs. Qin asked about her granddaughter.
¡°We sent Qiu to her grandmother¡¯s house.¡± Qin Chaoyang didn¡¯t dare to let her stay with Li Kun.
¡°What do you n to do now?¡± Qin Lei asked his brother and sister-inw.
¡°We really don¡¯t know what to do.¡± Lin Cuiping and her husband were at a loss for a good solution.
¡°Tomorrow, you should go and bring Qiu back first.¡± Mrs. Qin sipped her tea and spoke.
¡°Alright, we¡¯ll go get her tomorrow.¡± Qin Chaoyang didn¡¯t argue, and simply agreed.
At first, they had nned to bring Qiu back with them, but they were afraid that the Li family would cause trouble, so they sent her to her grandmother¡¯s house instead. Now that their mother asked them to bring her back, of course, they wouldn¡¯t object.
Qin Lei saw that his brother and sister-inw probably hadn¡¯t eaten since they rushed back, so he went to the kitchen to cook two bowls of noodles.
Chapter 398: 392: Something Happened to the Qins

Trantor:549690339
Qin Lei finished cooking the noodles and added an egg on top before serving them to his elder brother and sister-inw.
¡°Big brother, sister-inw, you haven¡¯t eaten yet, have you? I cooked some noodles; just eat them to fill your stomachs for now.¡± Qin Lei ced the noodles in front of his elder brother and sister-inw and spoke to them.
¡°Thank you, Lei, thank you, uncle.¡± Qin Chaoyang and Lin Cuiping both expressed their gratitude to Qin Lei in unison.
Indeed, they had lost their appetite since the incident had urred. Only when they saw the noodles Qin Lei brought to them did they realize they were already starving.
After his elder brother and sister-inw finished eating the noodles, Qin Lei cleared the bowls.
The fastest way to resolve the issue was to give the Lis US$ 500. However, this would let the Lis off too easily.
They weren¡¯t willing to ept it. Li Kun was two-timing and still wanted the Qins to pay. Anyone would find it hard to swallow this matter.
¡°Big brother, sister-inw, why don¡¯t you go home and rest first? We¡¯ll slowly think of a solution for this matter.¡± Qin Lei thought that sitting like this wasn¡¯t a solution.
¡°Lei is right; let¡¯s go home first.¡± Grandpa Qin spoke up.
¡°Alright, let¡¯s go home.¡± Qin Chaoyang stood up and said.
After Qin Chaoyang and his family left, Qin Lei sat in the living room, staring at the sky, missing his wife.
¡°Achoo!¡± Nangong Shn sneezed on the train.
¡°Mom, are you alright?¡± Qin Yu asked his mother, concerned that she might be catching a cold.
¡°I¡¯m fine; someone must be cursing me.¡± Nangong Shn rubbed her nose.
¡°It¡¯s probably your elder daughter missing you.¡± Qin Yu wanted to say it was his foster father, Qin Lei, who was missing his mother, but fearing being scolded, he changed his words at thest moment, substituting ¡°dad¡± with ¡°elder sister.¡±
¡°The older she gets, the more clingy she bes.¡± Nangong Shn thought of her eldest daughter, who hardly clung to her. She used to be affectionate, but not clingy.
¡°I think my elder sister is great like this.¡± Qin Yu thought his elder sister was always the best.
¡°In your eyes, your elder sister has never had a bad moment.¡± Nangong Shn replied after hearing her son¡¯s words.
¡°Of course! Look who her little brother is.¡± Qin Yu had always thought Qin Xue was the best sister in the world.
Nangong Shn was speechless as she looked at her son. It¡¯s always been the older brother cherishing the younger sister, but in her family, it¡¯s the younger brother cherishing the elder sister.
Chu Molin returned to the army after sending his mother-inw and younger brother-inw on the train. He was already back at work. As soon as he sent them off, he immediately immersed himself in his duties.
¡°Commander, we can close the.¡± Qin Lang ced the files on the table and said to Chu Molin.
Chu Molin picked up the files and quickly looked through them.
¡°Do it, but be careful.¡± Chu Molin gave the order immediately after reading the files.
¡°Yes, I¡¯ll inform them right away.¡± Qin Lang turned around and left the office.
Chu Molin nced at the files in his hand, his thoughts drifting far away. Jing Xin, you must be well. Your wife and son are still waiting for you.
At home, Qin Xue cleared the tableware and read for a while before closing the book and going to sleep. Before sleeping, she noticed Chu Molin hadn¡¯te back yet and wondered what he was busy with at such ate hour. She left some warm dinner for him on the stove.
In reality, Chu Molin was just sitting in his office waiting for news.
¡°Commander, um, someone is injured.¡± Li Dabao didn¡¯t know how to break the news to Chu Molin.
¡°Who¡¯s injured?¡± Chu Molin immediately asked, hoping it wasn¡¯t Jing Xin injured. Otherwise, how could he tell that lovely child: ¡°Your father isn¡¯t dead; he¡¯sing back.¡±

Trantor:549690339
Li Dabao thought that it was going to be said anyway, so he loudly said, ¡°Captain Jing is injured.¡±
Li Dabaoter found out that Jing Xin was actually a captain.
¡°Who did you say is injured?¡± Chu Molin asked with a stern face.
¡°Captain Jing Xin is injured, and it¡¯s a serious injury. He¡¯s been taken to the hospital for emergency treatment.¡± Li Dabao thought that this was how he received the news.
¡°Which hospital? Let¡¯s go!¡± Chu Molin picked up the keys on the table and walked, asking Li Dabao as he went.
¡°The People¡¯s Hospital where you were treated for your injuryst time.¡± Li Dabao quickly followed Chu Molin¡¯s steps, reporting the information without slowing down.
¡°Alright, hurry up. Have all the Snakehead gang members been arrested?¡± Chu Molin asked about the key figures.
¡°All of them have been arrested.¡± Li Dabao answered Chu Molin¡¯s question while driving.
¡°Mm.¡± Chu Molin nodded and closed his eyes to rest.
¡°Mr. Chu.¡± As soon as Chu Molin arrived at the hospital, Qin Lang came to greet him.
¡°How¡¯s the situation?¡± Chu Molin looked coldly at the operating room.
¡°They¡¯re still trying to save him.¡± Qin Lang didn¡¯t expect Jing Xin to do what he did in the end.
¡°What exactly happened?¡± Chu Molin thought that ording to the arrangements on the file, there couldn¡¯t have been such an incident.
¡°Everything was going smoothly ording to the n, but somehow Snakehead found a hostage and demanded an exchange with Jing Xin, saying that he was willing to die with Jing Xin. The higher-ups gave orders to stall for time and let the iing snipers find a suitable shooting position to kill him.
So Jing Xin didn¡¯t need to go exchange the hostage, but for some reason, he agreed to go. You can imagine what kind of state Jing Xin would be in once he fell into Snakehead¡¯s hands.
That¡¯s how Jing Xin was taken by Snakehead¡¯s group into the abandoned building. We don¡¯t know what happened inside, but when we went inter, we found that all of Snakehead¡¯s gang members were dead, and Jing Xin was critically injured.¡± Qin Lang briefly exined the situation.
After an unknown amount of time, the situation in the operating room was still not optimistic. Chen Hao looked at the report in his hand, another surgery he was unable to perform.
But he had also heard how powerful the injured person inside was. Wouldn¡¯t the death of such a hero be a great loss to the people?
Suddenly, Chen Hao thought of someone and turned to Li Lan, ¡°Ms. Li, can you go out and ask if someone can invite Qin Xue over?¡±
¡°Alright.¡± Li Lan listened and replied.
Chen Hao thought that now Qin Xue might be the only one who could perform this operation.
¡°Excuse me, who can go to XX Research Institute and find Chu Molin¡¯s wife Qin Xue toe over?¡± Li Lan yelled as soon as she got out of the operating room.
¡°Why do you need Qin Xue?¡± Qin Lang asked in confusion.
¡°Because the person inside is very dangerous.¡± Li Lan had never met Qin Lang. She had missed the time when Qin Lang hade to see Chu Molin during hisst injury, so she hadn¡¯t met him.
¡°If the patient is in danger, shouldn¡¯t you look for a doctor? What¡¯s the use of looking for Qin Xue?¡± Qin Lang became even more confused as he listened.
But Chu Molin understood Li Lan¡¯s meaning as soon as he heard it. It seemed that what he had experienced when he was injuredst time was not a dream, but real, and his surgery must have been done by Qin Xue.
Thinking of this, Chu Molin actually wanted to refuse. But the person inside was Jing Xin, who could even give his life for the mission, and Qin Xue liked Jingtao so much. If she couldn¡¯t save Jing Xin, Qin Xue would probably feel guilty towards Jingtao when she found out in the future.
¡°I¡¯ll call Qin Xue.¡± Chu Molin left the word and walked away.
¡°Um, what is Mr. Chu doing here?¡± Li Lan looked at the retreating Chu Molin and muttered to herself.
¡°Because the person inside is Mr. Chu¡¯s colleague.¡± Qin Lang heard Li Lan¡¯s words and answered her question.

Qin Xue was sleeping soundly at home when she was suddenly awakened by the sound of the door opening.
¡°Who is it? Chu Molin, is that you?¡± Qin Xue looked out of the window at the night sky, realizing it was already veryte.
¡°Xue¡¯er, it¡¯s me.¡± Chu Molin, who had just entered the house, heard his wife¡¯s question and replied.
¡°Why are youing back sote? Did you just finish work?¡± Qin Xue sat up and looked at Chu Molin as he entered the room.
¡°Xue¡¯er, get up, change your clothes ande with me to the hospital,¡± Chu Molin said as he sat on the edge of the bed, stroking his wife¡¯s long hair with his hand.
¡°Why do we need to go to the hospital? What happened?¡± Qin Xue asked Chu Molin with a puzzled look.
¡°Arade of mine was injured and is being treated at the hospital, but it¡¯s been a long time and he still hasn¡¯te out.
Nurse Li Lan came out and asked you toe to the hospital. I happened to be there at the time, so I came back to call you.
Whether you go or not is up to you. I won¡¯t force you.¡± Chu Molin didn¡¯t pry into his wife¡¯s secrets, but he didn¡¯t want her to get hurt either.
¡°Is thisrade very important?¡± Qin Xue thought that if it was absolutely necessary to save him, she would do it, because soldiers were sacred in her heart. But if it was a soldier with bad conduct, she wouldn¡¯t risk exposing her secret and save him.
¡°Very important,¡± Chu Molin had served alongside Jing Xin for several years and shared deep camaraderie.
¡°Alright, wait for me.¡± After listening to Chu Molin¡¯s words, Qin Xue got up to change her clothes.
After putting on her shoes and getting out of bed, Qin Xue remembered the food she had left to warm in the pot.
¡°I¡¯m going to change my clothes, you go eat the food in the pot,¡± Qin Xue turned to look at Chu Molin.
¡°Okay,¡± Chu Molin replied. If Qin Xue hadn¡¯t mentioned it, he would have forgotten he hadn¡¯t eaten dinner yet.
Qin Xue went to change her clothes, while Chu Molin went to eat. The husband and wife each performed their own tasks.
Chu Molin took out the food and found that tonight¡¯s meat was different from usual.
He picked up a piece with his chopsticks, took a bite, and found the meat to be tender and delicious. It was exceptionally tasty.
Chu Molin sped up his eating pace and quickly finished a bowl of rice.
Just as Qin Xue came out after changing her clothes, she saw Chu Molin finishing the bowl of rice.
¡°Let¡¯s go. We¡¯ll wash the dishes when wee back.¡± Qin Xue thought that Li Lan must be calling her to go there at Chen Hao¡¯s request.
It seemed that the soldier was severely injured. Thest time she performed surgery on Chu Molin, she had observed Chen Hao¡¯s actions and skills during their cooperation and discovered that his technique was good enough to be a chief surgeon.
Now that Chen Hao had asked Li Lan to call her over, Qin Xue guessed that he must be unable toplete this surgery on his own.
So, while changing her clothes earlier, Qin Xue had already taken out her surgical scalpel.
Using her familiar scalpel could give her a sense of security and help her operate more steadily during the surgery.
¡°Okay,¡± Chu Molin quickly put away the bowl and chopsticks in the kitchen, picked up the hat on the table, and went downstairs with his wife.
¡°Xue¡¯er, it¡¯s dark outside. Walk slowly,¡± Chu Molin cautioned as he held his wife¡¯s hand.
¡°Yes, I know,¡± Qin Xue held her husband¡¯s hand tightly.
Chu Molin opened the car door for Qin Xue and then went to the driver¡¯s seat to drive.
When they arrived at the hospital, they went straight to the entrance of the operating room.
¡°How¡¯s the situation?¡± Chu Molin asked Qin Lang, who was standing at the entrance of the operating room.
¡°He hasn¡¯te out yet,¡± Qin Lang nodded as he saw Chu Molin and Qin Xue arrive.
Qin Xue walked to the door of the operating room and rang the bell.
Chen Hao and the other doctors who were discussing the surgery n inside came out.
¡°Qin Xue is here,¡± Chen Hao greeted her happily as he saw her.
¡°Yes, the usual rules,¡± Qin Xue nced at the others around him and said to Chen Hao.
¡°Alright, I understand,¡± Chen Hao nodded and left with the other doctors.
¡°Chu Molin, clear everyone out of here. Besides you, no one else can stay here,¡± Qin Xue instructed Chu Molin as she looked at him.
¡°Okay, I understand,¡± Chu Molin agreed without any objections.

Chu Molin looked at the others and asked, ¡°Did you all hear what my wife said?¡±
¡°Mr. Chu, this¡¡± Qin Lang looked at Chu Molin.
¡°If you want to save a life, follow the arrangement,¡± Chu Molin said coldly to the others.
Li Dabao was the first to turn and leave. Last time when Mr. Chu was injured, his sister-inw made the decision, so this time, he simply executed the order after listening to it.
¡°Okay, let¡¯s go out,¡± Qin Lang looked at Chu Molin and Qin Xue, then said to the others.
¡°Ms. Li, the inspection report,¡± Qin Xue looked at Li Lan who was waiting nearby and reached out for the report.
¡°Here, all of it is here,¡± Li Lan had already cooperated with Qin Xue once before, so she quickly handed the report to Qin Xue this time.
Qin Xue took the report and began flipping through it page by page.
¡°Do you have a surgical n?¡± Qin Xue asked while looking at the report.
¡°We actually had one after some discussion, but it was ultimately vetoed, so now there isn¡¯t one,¡± Li Lan thought of how the doctors¡¯ discussion results were all denied earlier.
¡°I see, go and prepare for the surgery,¡± Qin Xue put the report on a nearby chair, took off her backpack, and took out the surgical instruments. She then handed the bag to Chu Molin.
¡°There are books in the bag. If you get impatient waiting, take out a book and read,¡± Qin Xue said to Chu Molin.
¡°Alright, I got it,¡± Chu Molin didn¡¯t ask any questions and just responded with an ¡°alright¡± when Qin Xue spoke to him.
As soon as Li Lan and Qin Xue entered the operating room, Chen Hao arrived.
¡°Mr. Chu, thank you,¡± Chen Hao wasn¡¯t sure why he wanted to say thank you, but the words just came out naturally when he saw Chu Molin.
¡°The person inside is myrade,¡± Chu Molin replied after hearing him.
Chen Hao nodded and entered the operating room, while Chu Molin waited outside.
¡°Dr. Chen,e here, look at this position, it should be done like this¡¡± Qin Xue asked Chen Hao to be her assistant and demonstrated the difficult procedures for him.
After a long wait, the light in the operating room finally turned off.
Chen Hao and Li Lan pushed Jing Xin out of the operating room, with Qin Xue following behind.
As soon as Chu Molin saw them, he hurried to Qin Xue¡¯s side.
¡°Xue¡¯er, are you alright?¡± Instead of asking about the sess of the surgery, Chu Molin was concerned about Qin Xue¡¯s well-being.
It wasn¡¯t that Chu Molin didn¡¯t care about Jing Xin, but seeing Qin Xue¡¯s tired and slightly pale face, he couldn¡¯t help but worry about her.
¡°I¡¯m fine, just a bit tired. The surgery was sessful, but he also hit his head when he was injured. Whether he wakes up or not depends on his willpower,¡± Qin Xue leaned on Chu Molin¡¯s arm, her entire body pressing against him.
Chu Molin felt that something was off with Qin Xue and gently embraced her.
¡°Don¡¯t, I¡¯m dirty. Just let me lean on you and rest for a while. I still need to change clothes,¡± Qin Xue didn¡¯t let Chu Molin hold her.
¡°Where should we change your clothes?¡± Chu Molin looked at Qin Xue and asked.
¡°Over there,¡± Qin Xue pointed in a direction.
Chu Molin looked at the direction, and with a quick movement, he lifted Qin Xue up in a princess carry.
¡°Ah,¡± Qin Xue was startled by the sudden weightlessness and screamed.
¡°I¡¯ll carry you there,¡± Chu Molin easily lifted the pregnant Qin Xue in his arms.
¡°Alright, I guess that saves me from walking,¡± Qin Xue was really tired, and having someone carry her made her feel more rxed.
¡°Xue¡¯er, you¡¯re really suited to be a doctor,¡± Chu Molin looked at thepetent Qin Xue in her new set of clothes and said.
¡°Uh, Chu Molin, don¡¯t you have any questions for me?¡± Qin Xue looked up at the man¡¯s resolute chin, which already had ayer of bluish stubble growing.
Qin Xue raised her hand to touch the man¡¯s chin, the stubble was rough and prickly.
¡°Xue¡¯er, I don¡¯t have any questions for you. When you want to tell me something, you will naturally tell me,¡± Chu Molin lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms as he spoke.

¡°Alright, Chu Molin, thank you.¡± Thank you for not forcing me to reveal my secret, thank you for not imposing on me, and thank you for trusting and loving me wholeheartedly. Qin Xue leaned on Chu Molin¡¯s chest, listening to his strong and powerful heartbeat.
¡°Silly girl.¡± Chu Molin looked at the woman leaning against his chest with an indulgent smile and spoke softly.
¡°Go change your clothes, I¡¯ll wait for you outside.¡± Chu Molin left Qin Xue at the entrance of the changing room.
¡°Okay, I¡¯ll be quick.¡± Qin Xue smiled and hurried into the changing room.
She needed to change out of her surgical gown and sterilize herself.
¡°Chu Molin, I¡¯m ready. Let¡¯s go.¡± Qin Xue stepped forward, taking Chu Molin¡¯s arm.
¡°Alright.¡± Chu Molin put the surgical tools from Qin Xue¡¯s hand into her backpack and carried it for her.
When the couple came out, there was no one waiting for them. Everyone probably went to see Jing Xin in the ward.
¡°Deputy Chief, sister-inw.¡± Li Dabao saw Chu Molin and Qin Xuee out and greeted them respectfully.
¡°Huh, Da Bao, didn¡¯t you go with them to see the patient in the ward?¡± Qin Xue asked, seeing Li Dabao suddenly appear in front of them.
¡°No, I¡¯ve been waiting for you here.¡± Li Dabao answered Qin Xue¡¯s question honestly.
¡°Well, good. You¡¯re honest.¡± Qin Xue wanted to pat Li Dabao¡¯s shoulder, but was stopped by the man beside her grabbing her hand.
Qin Xue looked at the man who grabbed her hand, puzzled: What are you doing?
Chu Molin looked at the woman who had no sense of self-awareness, feeling somewhat helpless.
¡°Xue¡¯er, is there anything else to exin over at Jing Xin¡¯s side?¡± Chu Molin changed the subject.
¡°No need, Dr. Chen Hao is there, he¡¯ll arrange everything. I don¡¯t need to do anything.¡± Qin Xue responded naturally after hearing Chu Molin¡¯s words, not realizing that he was trying to divert her attention.
¡°Then let¡¯s go take a look, and after everything is settled, I¡¯ll send you back to rest.¡± Chu Molin looked at the sky, which was already getting brighter.
¡°Okay.¡± Qin Xue agreed, yawning. She was really tired.
Chu Molin and Qin Xue went to the ward and saw that Jing Xin had been settled. Then they turned to look at Li Dabao.
¡°Li Dabao, you stay here and guard Mr. Jing. Report any abnormalities immediately.¡± Chu Molin wanted to take his wife back, so he had to leave Li Dabao to take care of Jing Xin.
¡°Yes, Deputy Chief.¡± Li Dabao saluted and responded to Chu Molin.
¡°Xue¡¯er, you said that Jing Xin has injured his head and might not wake up, is that right?¡± Chu Molin had been thinking about this issue since Qin Xue came out of the operating room.
¡°Yes.¡± Qin Xue nodded.
¡°Is there any other way?¡± Chu Molin asked after a moment of silence.
¡°Yes! We can use familiar people or objects to stimte his nerves.¡± Qin Xue thought, isn¡¯t it true that vegetative patients are awakened by their families? Although the chance of awakening is slim for a vegetative patient, there are sessful examples.
Besides, Jing Xin is not a vegetative person yet, he just has a head injury and we don¡¯t know when he will wake up.
¡°So, if we call his family, can he wake up?¡± Chu Molin asked.
¡°Not necessarily. His family can only help him wake up. Let me put it this way,
When he¡¯s with his family, do some deep-rooted memoriese to mind?
It could be happy or unforgettable, as long as it¡¯s something that matters to him deep in his memory.
Moreover, it needs to be repeated, talking about what he cares about.¡± Qin Xue answered Chu Molin¡¯s question with her eyes closed, in a drowsy state.
¡°Just like when I was injuredst time and you spoke to me, right?¡± Chu Molin looked at Qin Xue, who was still closing her eyes, and asked. The words she spoke to him then really had a great impact on him.

¡°Hehe, you remembered,¡± Qin Xue asked embarrassed. Speaking of this, she felt somewhat awkward.
¡°Clear as day.¡± Chu Molin looked at Qin Xue, his answer slightly grinding. To think this woman wanted to remarry with his son, having the boy call someone else father.
¡°Didn¡¯t I do that to save you?¡± Qin Xue questioned. If she hadn¡¯t motivated him with her words, he might have already died. He wouldn¡¯t be here to discuss this if that were the case.
¡°Uh huh, I know,¡± Chu Molin nodded in agreement. If Qin Xue hadn¡¯t provoked him intentionally, he might still be stuck in the darkness, unconscious.
That¡¯s why he hadn¡¯t investigated further into Qin Xue¡¯s previous words. Otherwise, he would have punished her. He wondered if she would still contemte remarriage then.
¡°So, does the injured man have any family?¡± Qin Xue hoped that Chu Molin would stop harping about the remarriage issue.
¡°Yes, and you know his family too.¡± Chu Molin uttered these cryptic words to Qin Xue.
¡°I know them? But who?¡± Qin Xue went through all the individuals she knew in her mind but couldn¡¯t figure out who Chu Molin was referring to.
¡°His name is Jing Xin. Isn¡¯t the surname Jing familiar to you?¡± Chu Molin gave Qin Xue a clue.
¡°Jing Xin, Jing¡ Jingtao. Wait, you mean¡¡± Qin Xue hesitantly inquired, looking at Chu Molin.
¡°Yes, exactly what you were thinking.¡± Chu Molin confirmed, knowing his young wife got the underlying meaning of his words.
¡°But wasn¡¯t he supposedly dead already?¡± Qin Xue remembered when she first met Fang Xiu. A woman was being sent away, who, despite her situation, gave birth to and raised a child, never contemting remarriage.
Qin Xue was initially moved by Fang Xiu¡¯s tenacity, which drove her to assist Fang Xiu. She didn¡¯t expect that she would end up saving the woman¡¯s husband today.
¡°Initially, I thought he was dead when I was in training. Then I found out he was undercover. He got injured when there was an unexpected incident during our sting operation,¡± Chu Molin exined the situation to Qin Xue briefly.
¡°Then we must inform Fang Xiu about it.¡± Qin Xue felt that this misunderstanding had been blown out of proportion.
¡°Uh-huh.¡± Chu Molin agreed. Revealing Jing Xin¡¯s identity to Qin Xue was intended to let Fang Xiu know, so she could help awaken Jing Xin.
It wasn¡¯t like Chu Molin was trying to manipte Qin Xue, but as a man, he didn¡¯t know how to appropriately broach the subject with Fang Xiu.
It would be best for his wife, who was close to Fang Xiu, to speak to her about it.
As the couple talked on their way home, they took a shower right after arriving and then went to sleep.
When Qin Xue woke up fully refreshed, Chu Molin was nowhere to be found. That man never seemed to run out of energy.
Qin Xue got up to prepare breakfast as she still needed to meet with Fang Xiuter.
After making breakfast and noticing Chu Molin still wasn¡¯t back, she went into the secluded space.
¡°Xue Ling, do you want a bun?¡± Qin Xue asked, holding up a tter of buns.
¡°No, I want meat!¡± said Xue Ling, who preferred meat over buns.
¡°I didn¡¯t make any meat this morning.¡± Qin Xue ced the buns on the bamboo table, looking at Xue Ling as she spoke.
¡°Then, Master, when will you make meat next?¡± Xue Ling drooled just thinking about the meal from the previous night.
¡°Some other time. I might be a bit busy in the next few days.¡± Qin Xue still needed to prepare medication.
¡°Okay. When you cook it next time, be sure you save me some,¡± Xue Ling added, not pushing for meat any further.
¡°Alright. I¡¯ll prepare an extra portion for you. When you have some free time, catch a few bamboo rats. I can cook them for you when I find the time.¡± Qin Xue figured that food wouldn¡¯t spoil in the secluded area. So, it wouldn¡¯t be a problem if the bamboo rats were caught but not cooked immediately.

Qin Xue was busy harvesting vegetables and herbs in her space before emerging, nning to buy arge wooden barrel so she could take baths even if she didn¡¯t dig a bath pool.
Qin Xue wore a short skirt, her fair and long legs quite eye-catching.
All these clothes were made for herfort, and thanks to Fang Xiu¡¯s excellent sewing skills, anything Qin Xue could draw, she could make.
When Chu Molin came back, he saw a pleasing scene ¨C his little wife wearing a short skirt, bending over for something with her perky butt disyed right in front of him, even getting a glimpse of the underwear inside. Chu Molin was so stimted he nearly got a nosebleed.
Fortunately, this was in their home and not outside, otherwise, who knows what kind ofmotion it would cause.
Qin Xue heard the noise and slowly stood up, turning her head to see Chu Molin¡¯s eyes shining as he stared at her.
¡°What¡¯s the matter with you staring at me like that?¡± Qin Xue looked down at herself, not finding anything improper,pletely unaware of her recent exposure.
¡°Nothing, what were you just doing?¡± Chu Molin wouldn¡¯t dare confess to what he¡¯d just seen. As long as she didn¡¯t wear it outside, this would be fine to wear at home. Chu Molin wasn¡¯t so rigid as to not let her wear such clothes at home.
Of course, if Qing Xue agreed to wear nothing in front of him, he would have noints, let alone Qin Xue just wearing a short skirt now.
¡°I was just looking at the chili sauce. See how beautiful the color is?¡± Qin Xue showed the chili sauce she had just scooped out to Chu Molin. The bright red color looked very tempting.
¡°Very beautiful, it must taste delicious.¡± Chu Molin sniffed the chili sauce, and its aroma was enticing, certainly a great apaniment to steamed buns.
¡°Go wash your hands and have breakfast.¡± Qin Xue put the chili sauce on the table and brought out some steamed buns.
There was a te of pickled cucumbers, a te of sauerkraut, a te of pickled radishes, a bowl of chili sauce, a big pot of steamed buns, and two bowls of white porridge for today¡¯s breakfast.
Chu Molin looked at the small dishes on the table, all vegetarian and sour and spicy. Just seeing them made him want to eat several big steamed buns.
Qin Xue took a sip of porridge, tore a steamed bun apart, and added some veggies in between. Biting down, it was spicy and delicious.
Both of them were satisfied with their breakfast. After they finished eating, the couple tidied up and headed to the county town.
¡°I wonder if Fang Xiu can ept it?¡± Qin Xue thought about the sudden appearance of someone they had believed to be dead. No matter who it was, it would be hard to ept, right?
¡°Let¡¯s bring her and her son to the hospital first and tell them there.¡± Chu Molin didn¡¯t have a better idea. He thought that this time, Jing Xin could finally appear in front of Fang Xiu and her son in a legitimate way, but who knew such an ident would happen?
¡°Alright.¡± Qin Xue agreed with Chu Molin¡¯s suggestion.
Fang Xiu returned from shopping and saw the Jeep parked at the entrance of the shop, not knowing who hade.
¡°Xiu, you¡¯re back.¡± Qin Xue greeted Fang Xiu when she saw her.
¡°Qin Xue, Mr. Chu, what brings you two here?¡± Fang Xiu looked at Qin Xue and Chu Molin in surprise.
¡°We¡¯re not opening the shop today. I¡¯m taking you to meet someone.¡± Qin Xue said quietly, looking at Fang Xiu.
¡°Who are we meeting? Why aren¡¯t we opening the shop?¡± Fang Xiu wondered who they were going to meet that was so important they wouldn¡¯t even open the store.
¡°You¡¯ll know when we get there. Bring Xiao Jingtao with you.¡± Qin Xue figured they might as well just take the whole day off and let Yu Xiu go home too.
¡°Qin Xue, what are you¡¡± Fang Xiu suddenly felt a little uneasy.
¡°Go get ready. Chu Molin will hold Xiao Jingtao.¡± Qin Xue pulled Fang Xiu into the store.
Fang Xiu was even more at a loss now. What exactly was Qin Xue trying to do?

After Fang Xiu changed her clothes, Qin Xue asked Yu Xiu to close the clothing store and take the day off.
¡°Qin Xue, did something happen?¡± Yu Xiu didn¡¯t go back to the military areast night, so she didn¡¯t know about Jing Xin¡¯s situation.
¡°Nothing much, I want to take Xiu to meet someone, so we can¡¯t open the store today. It would be bad if you were alone there, so I thought I¡¯d let you go home and take a day off.¡± Qin Xue didn¡¯t know how to exin Jing Xin¡¯s situation, so she simply gave an excuse.
¡°Oh, as long as nothing¡¯s wrong.¡± Yu Xiu didn¡¯t doubt Qin Xue¡¯s words.
After Chu Molin drove Yu Xiu back to the military area, he drove Qin Xue and Fang Xiu to the hospital.
At the door of the ward, Qin Xue held Fang Xiu back.
¡°Xiu, no matter what you see inside, you must stay calm, okay?¡± Qin Xue was still a little worried.
¡°Qin Xue, what happened? Why did you bring me to the hospital? And why are you saying this?¡± Fang Xiu didn¡¯t know why, but her heart felt extremely uneasy, and she had a strong desire to run away.
¡°You just need to promise me that you¡¯ll stay calm.¡± Qin Xue motioned for Chu Molin to hold the child, as she was afraid that Fang Xiu might not be able to control her emotions and identally hurt the child.
¡°Fang Xiu, let me hold the baby. You go in,¡± Chu Molin reached out to take the child in Fang Xiu¡¯s arms.
Fang Xiu looked at Qin Xue and her husband and reluctantly handed the child to Chu Molin.
Since all the answers were in the ward, there was no point in running away. With that thought, Fang Xiu pushed the door of the ward open.
What caught her eye was a person lying on the hospital bed. Fang Xiu looked at the person on the bed and couldn¡¯t believe it. Tears streamed down her face, dripping onto the floor. Her heart ached as she approached.
Who could tell her what was going on?
Why was her newlywed husband lying there? Wasn¡¯t he supposed to be dead? What was going on here?
Fang Xiu¡¯s tears fell continuously like broken beads.
She couldn¡¯t understand why things were different from what she knew.
Fang Xiu¡¯s heart ached so much she couldn¡¯t breathe. No one knew how much she had suffered because of this man.
They married through an introduction and hadn¡¯t spent much time together.
After they got married, as soon as the holidays arrived, he left. Afterward, she received the terrible news. Then she was despised by her inws, who said she was a wife who hexed her husband to death. After that, she was driven out of her husband¡¯s house.
Who would have thought that just when she couldn¡¯t hold on any longer, she discovered she was pregnant.
Thinking that the child would be a legacy for this man, perhaps this was the will of the heavens. So, she gritted her teeth, turned to her brother, and with his help, opened a tailor shop to support herself and her child.
Finally, her life was back on track and she had moved on from the heartbreaking marriage. She and the child were doing well.
But why had this man, who should be dead, reappeared in front of her? What was she supposed to do now?
Had she endured all those hardships for nothing? The more Fang Xiu thought about it, the sadder she became, and she eventually broke down crying uncontrobly.
Qin Xue, leaning on Chu Molin¡¯s shoulder, watched Fang Xiu in the ward, her eyes red.
She could understand Fang Xiu¡¯s feelings because it was truly bitter.
¡°Chu Molin, do you think Fang Xiu can let go?¡± Qin Xue¡¯s voice was muffled.
¡°Xue¡¯er, once you make a choice, you must bear the consequences. This is true for us soldiers as well as for you military wives.¡± Chu Molin patted his wife¡¯s head and said.
¡°Chu Molin, I know, and I¡¯m prepared. But Fang Xiu¡¯s situation is different from mine. I¡¯m afraid she¡¯ll go to extremes.¡± Qin Xue knew that a person could get hurt if they were too determined.

Chu Molin looked tenderly at the person in his arms. Everyone has their own experiences to go through. As soldiers, they are always prepared to make sacrifices for their country, and their wives are always prepared to be widows.
That¡¯s why many people are unwilling to marry soldiers. It¡¯s bad enough that they can¡¯t help around the house, but everything is left for the women to handle on their own. They also have to be prepared for the possibility of their husbands¡¯ demise. The loneliness and torture of such a life are truly not something that ordinary people can bear.
¡°Don¡¯t worry, she won¡¯t, she still has little Jingtao,¡± Chu Molin looked at the child in his arms and said to his wife.
¡°Right, how could I forget? A mother can¡¯t bear to leave her child behind. She¡¯s already made it through the hardest times. And now that the child¡¯s father has returned.¡± Qin Xue looked up at Chu Molin and Xiao Jing.
¡°Jingtao, your dad is back. Your dad is a hero, do you know that?¡± Qin Xue spoke softly as she held Jingtao¡¯s hand.
¡°Yaya,¡± Jingtao waved his little hand and called out to Qing Xue.
¡°Little Jingtao misses his dad too, doesn¡¯t he? So, little Jingtao, you and Mommy have to wake Daddy up together, okay?¡± Qin Xue thought that not only being a soldier¡¯s wife is difficult, but also their children have a hard time as well.
Just like Jingtao, who was thought to have lost his father even before he was born, and now he¡¯s eight months old, he hasn¡¯t even met his own dad.
Now that his dad finally came back, he was injured and lying on a hospital bed, unable to hold his wife and child.
¡°Yaya,¡± Jingtao excitedly tried to leap towards Qin Xue.
¡°Be quiet,¡± Chu Molin scolded.
Jingtao pursed his lips, and his teary eyes looked pitifully at Chu Molin. It was so adorable, but what were they supposed to do?
¡°Pfft, hahaha. Who taught you this, little rascal?¡± Qin Xue pinched Jingtao¡¯s cheek andughed happily.
¡°Yaya,¡± Jingtao called out again when he saw Qin Xue teasing him and cast a nce at Chu Molin, filled withints.
¡°Ah, our little Jingtao is snitching now, huh? Come on, don¡¯t be mad, Auntie will give you a kiss and it¡¯ll be all better.¡± Qin Xue leaned in to kiss Jingtao¡¯s face.
Chu Molin suddenly turned his body aside, causing Qin Xue to miss.
¡°Why are you doing this?¡± Qin Xue looked at the man. It was his fault that she didn¡¯t get to kiss Jingtao.
¡°You can only kiss me, not other men,¡± Chu Molin said coldly.
¡°Chu Molin, are you sick? He¡¯s just a child, not a man!¡± Qin Xue looked at the jealous man, speechless. It was terrifying.
¡°He¡¯s male,¡± Chu Molin didn¡¯t care if he was a man or a boy, as long as he was male, it wasn¡¯t allowed.
¡°You¡¯re hopeless.¡± Fine, she wouldn¡¯t kiss him. Qin Xue felt helpless. She wondered if she¡¯d be allowed to kiss her own son if she had one in the future.
¡°Chu Molin, let me ask you something,¡± Qin Xue looked at Chu Molin with a mischievous smile.
¡°What is it?¡± Chu Molin looked at his wife¡¯s yful grin and felt a sudden apprehension. Nothing good coulde out of this.
¡°If the child I¡¯m carrying is a boy, will I be allowed to kiss him?¡± Qin Xue, with a face full of smiles, waited for Chu Molin¡¯s answer.
¡°Uh,¡± Chu Molin didn¡¯t expect Qin Xue to ask him this.
¡°Well, can I?¡± Qin Xue pressed.
¡°If I say you can¡¯t kiss him, would you really not do it?¡± Chu Molin asked after a moment of silence.
¡°What do you think?¡± Qin Xue really wanted to knock on this man¡¯s head to see what kind of structurey inside, with such a big jealous streak.
¡°Then, can you kiss him asionally and less often?¡± Chu Molin hesitated before asking.
¡°Hehe, you¡¯re really something. The child hasn¡¯t even been born yet, and you¡¯re already jealous. I¡¯m suddenly looking forward to having a baby boy.¡± Qin Xue looked at Chu Molin and said leisurely.

When Chu Molin heard this, his heart tightened, worried that the baby might really be a boy. He wanted a daughter, someone he could spoil, not a son to share his wife¡¯s attention with.
Chu Molin looked at Qin Xue with a bit of anguish. He just wanted his wife to be close to him, and the situation had turned into this.
¡°Stop it, you¡¯re a grown man, and that expression doesn¡¯t suit you. It¡¯s really damaging to your masculine pride.¡± Qin Xue spared him no mercy in her criticism.
Upon hearing his little wife¡¯s words, Chu Molin withdrew his aggrieved expression and regained his aloof demeanor.
¡°Indeed, this kind of temperament suits you better ¨C cold and cool.¡± Qin Xue liked the unapproachable expression on his face.
A hint of amusement shed in Chu Molin¡¯s eyes, thinking his good looks might be the key factor here. Perhaps he could asionally use his good looks to allure his little wife in the future.
While Chu Molin and his wife were teasing each other here, Fang Xiu, who had spent only a few days with her husband in the ward, had been crying continuously. Eventually, she wiped her tears away and ced a hand on his face, caressing his brows and eyes.
¡°Jing Xin, I don¡¯t know what happened exactly. Since you didn¡¯t die and returned, let¡¯s have a good life from now on.
You probably don¡¯t know that you have a son. I named him Jingtao, and he¡¯s a lovely and intelligent little fellow. He¡¯s very well-behaved, and he saves me a lot of trouble. Mr. Chu is holding him right now, so I¡¯ll bring him in to see what his father looks like.¡± Fang Xiu spoke gently to her husband.
The door to the ward creaked open, and Fang Xiu appeared in front of Chu Molin and Qin Xue.
¡°Mr. Chu, please give Taotao to me. I¡¯ll bring him in to see his father.¡± Fang Xiu reached out to take her son.
¡°Alright,¡± Chu Molin handed Jingtao over to his mother.
¡°Thank you all.¡± Fang Xiu smiled in gratitude.
¡°Go inside, we¡¯ll wait out here,¡± Qin Xue said, patting her on the shoulder with a smile.
Fang Xiu nodded and entered the hospital room with her child.
¡°Chu Molin, you were right,¡± Qin Xue said, looking on as Fang Xiu seemed to have calmed down. It seemed that after venting her feelings, she had chosen to live her life to the fullest.
¡°Let¡¯s sit over there and wait,¡± Chu Molin said, leading his little wife to a chair nearby.
Qin Xue sat down on the chair, leaning her erged belly against Chu Molin as it was ufortable to sit due to its size.
Seeing Qin Xue¡¯s difort, Chu Molin put his arm around her, holding her close.
¡°Chu Molin, don¡¯t you have to go to work?¡± Qin Xue suddenly remembered that Chu Molin had been apanying her and hadn¡¯t gone to work.
¡°I took care of some things this morning, and the rest can be done slowly.¡± Chu Molin had handled his work early in the morning and then returned to apany his wife to see Fang Xiu.
¡°So you went to the office in the morning. I thought you were training.¡± Qin Xue had no idea that the man went so early just to have time to apany her.
¡°In a few days, I¡¯ll have to arrange some special training, so I won¡¯t have much time to apany you.¡± Chu Molin wanted to get the special training set up as soon as possible so he could leave for military school sooner.
¡°It¡¯s alright. I can take care of myself,¡± Qin Xue said, knowing that military wives often had to endure loneliness.
In her past life, Qin Xue had been ustomed to solitude, so she wouldn¡¯t be afraid of it this time around either.
¡°Mhm.¡± Chu Molin ced a hand on Qin Xue¡¯s belly and beganmunicating with the baby using Morse code again.
Chu Molin thought that the baby might not actually understand what he was trying to express, but rather because the frequency of his tapping matched the baby¡¯s movements, the baby enjoyed interacting with him.
This was a great parent-child interaction game. Qin Xue felt Chu Molin tapping her belly from time to time, and the baby moved along ordingly. She found the whole thing to be quite magical.

Qin Xue watched the interaction between Chu Molin and their child. She found it very miraculous, could this be what modern science calls prenatal education?
Isn¡¯t it said that the fetus likes the touch of the mother the most, and hates the touch of the father? Why does their child like the touch of the father so much? Moreover, the child responds every time, making her, the mother, a bit jealous.
It seemed that good-looking people have charm both in front of adults and children. Their unborn child was already showing a preference for the father.
¡°Chu Molin, why do you asionally tap or touch like that?¡± Qin Xue felt that there must be some significance, definitely not just a simple touch or tap.
¡°This is a type of Morse code. I noticed the kids like it, so I use it to y with them.¡± Chu Molin answered without even lifting his head.
¡°What? You are using Morse code tomunicate with them while they are still in the womb? Are you nning to train them to be like Edogawa Conan?¡± Qin Xue really didn¡¯t know what to say, does anyone parents like that? Won¡¯t the kids have a hard time after they are born?
¡°Edogawa Conan? Who is that?¡± Chu Molin lifted his head and asked Qin Xue.
¡°He¡¯s a detective, extremely talented in both deduction and case investigation. His best skill is Morse code.¡± Qin Xue enjoyed watching Detective Conan and Justice Bao in her previous life.
¡°Oh, then he must be quite capable.¡± Chu Molin heard a name he¡¯d never heard before and felt that it must be another one of his young wife¡¯s secrets.
¡°Yes, there¡¯s no case he can¡¯t crack, especially locked-room murder cases, he¡¯s really good at those.¡± Qin Xue thought Conan was really amazing, no wonder his ratings were so good. Even though the ind country was detestable, they also had something worth learning from.
Qin Xue and Chu Molin had a discussion about Morse code.
In the ward, Fang Xiu ced Jingtao by the bed and said to him, ¡°Taotao, look, this is Daddy, your Daddy, do you understand?¡±
¡°Ah ah.¡± Jingtao understood some words, he just couldn¡¯t speak yet.
¡°That¡¯s right, call him Daddy.¡± Fang Xiu taught her son.
After hearing this, Jingtao looked at his mom and then at Jing Xin who was on the bed, struggling to crawl towards Jing Xin.
¡°Taotao, you can¡¯t climb on Daddy, he¡¯s injured. If you touch Daddy¡¯s wound, it will hurt.¡± Fang Xiu hurriedly pulled her son back so he wouldn¡¯t climb on Jing Xin.
¡°Ah ah¡± Jingtao cried anxiously, he wanted to go over, he wanted to see his dad.
¡°Taotao, how about we wait until Daddy is better and then let Daddy hold you?¡± Fang Xiu picked up her son and tried to calm him.
¡°Jing Xin, see? Your son wants you to hold him, so you have to get better soon and hold him, do you understand?¡± Fang Xiu holding her son looked at her husband.
Meanwhile, Jing Xin was struggling mightily to wake up. At first he felt very tired and just wanted to sleep. But then he heard someone crying and talking next to his ear.
He recognized the voice as his wife¡¯s, it was his wife crying. He felt very anxious, who had made his wife cry? Had she been bullied?
Jing Xin wanted to wake up and hold her. To tell her that he was there. But no matter how much he struggled, he couldn¡¯t wake up from the darkness.
After the struggle, suddenly it went quiet. Jing Xin waited for a while, but there were no more sounds.
He was very anxious, had his wife left? He hadn¡¯t seen his wife for a long time, how was she doing?
Jing Xin didn¡¯t hear Fang Xiu say she was going to bring their son over when he was struggling just now.
So within the onught of darkness, Jing Xin fell back asleep.
Naturally, Jing Xin, who had fallen into aa, didn¡¯t know that his wife had brought their son to see him.

In Qin family vige, Qin Chaoyang went to his father-inw¡¯s house to pick up his daughter Qin Qiu.
After Qin Lei cooked the meal, he invited his parents, brother, sister-inw, and niece toe to his house for dinner.
¡°Big brother, sister-inw, Xiao Qiu, eat fish.¡± Qin Lei invited his brother, sister-inw, and niece to eat fish while putting a piece of fish with few bones in each of his parents¡¯ bowls.
¡°Xiao Qiu, it¡¯s better not to have that kind of man. Don¡¯t be sad.¡± Mrs. Qinforted her granddaughter by giving her a piece of fish with her chopsticks as she saw her looking gloomy.
¡°Grandma.¡± Hearing her grandmother¡¯s words, Qin Qiu¡¯s tears immediately started to fall.
¡°Xiao Qiu, don¡¯t cry. We don¡¯t need such a thing. We will find a good one for you in the future, so let him regret it.¡± Mrs. Qin was getting a bit anxious and upset.
¡°That¡¯s right, Xiao Qiu, if you like soldiers, we can ask Qin Xue to find you a soldier in the army. Our Xiao Qiu is such a good girl that there¡¯s no need for her to be with that kind of irresponsible man.¡± Qin Lei felt sad in his heart, thinking that his nice niece had met such a worthless person. How could anyone not be upset about this?
¡°Uncle, I know, but I¡¯m just sad. How could he do this?¡± Qin Qiu was truly heartbroken. They were about to get married, and now things had turned out like this. If word got out, what would she do in the future? Who would dare to propose marriage to her?
¡°Qiu, it¡¯s all our fault. We didn¡¯t make proper inquiries before agreeing to your engagement.¡± Qin Chaoyang said to his daughter, despondent.
¡°Dad, what are you talking about? How can you me yourself?¡± When Qin Qiu heard her father¡¯s words, she dared not continue to feel heartbroken. Her parents had worked so hard and sacrificed so much for her and her sibling. Besides, her father would never want this to happen. How could she me him?
¡°Alright, let¡¯s not talk about it anymore. Let¡¯s eat first.¡± Grandpa Qin spoke up.
¡°Okay, dad, grandpa.¡± Qin Lei and the others responded in unison.
When Qin Yu and his mother Nangong Shn arrived home, it was almost dark.
¡°Dad, we¡¯re back.¡± Qin Yu shouted into the house as soon as he entered.
Qin Lei, who was inside, heard the shout and came out to see his wife and son.
¡°Why didn¡¯t you let us know in advance when you came back?¡± Qin Lei hurried over to take the luggage from his wife, asking with some reproach.
¡°We made ast-minute decision toe back, and there wasn¡¯t enough time, so we didn¡¯t tell you.¡± Nangong Shn handed the luggage to her husband.
¡°You should have said something anyway. If something happened, it would have made everyone worry.¡± Qin Lei talked to his wife as he put down the luggage.
¡°Uh, where¡¯s Qin Xue? Didn¡¯t you say she wasing back with you? Why don¡¯t I see her?¡± Qin Lei looked behind his wife and son but didn¡¯t see his daughter¡¯s figure.
¡°Qin Xue had somethinge up, so she¡¯s noting back with us for now.¡± Nangong Shn sat down in a chair, tapping her leg. The car ride had been quite tiring.
¡°Did something happen to Qin Xue?¡± Qin Lei asked anxiously.
¡°It¡¯s not a big deal; she might just have a premature birth. I was worried about it, so I asked Xiao Yu to bring me back.
I will let Jiale and Xiao Yu apany Qin Xue after Ie back, and when Qin Xue gives birth, I will go back to serve her confinement period.¡± Nangong Shn told her husband the result of their discussion.
¡°That works, but why might Qin Xue have a premature birth?¡± Qin Lei asked in confusion.
¡°Qin Xue is carrying twins.¡± Nangong Shn looked at her husband and said slowly.
¡°Alright, I understand.¡± Qin Lei knew when Nangong Shn mentioned twins, as she had also given birth prematurely, but only by a short time.
¡°You guys haven¡¯t eaten yet, right? I¡¯ll cook some noodles for you.¡± Qin Lei asked his wife after he put away the luggage.
¡°Yes, I¡¯m quite hungry.¡± Although Qin Xue had packed them a lot of food, Nangong Shn hadn¡¯t eaten much on the train.

After settling the luggage, Qin Yu went straight to the kitchen. He knew his mother hadn¡¯t eaten anything on the train, so he went to the kitchen as soon as he put down his belongings.
¡°Xiao Yu, you go and sit down to rest, Dad will cook.¡± Qin Lei entered the kitchen and saw his son boiling water. Without asking, he knew his son was preparing to cook noodles.
¡°Dad, I can handle it, you go and unpack. There are clothes for grandparents that sister provided in the luggage. There are also clothes for you and little sister in another bag.¡± Qin Yu didn¡¯t let his father help, instead asking him to unpack what they had brought back.
¡°Why did she spend money on clothes again? We all have clothes to wear.¡± Qin Lei was concerned about their spending habits.
¡°Sister had them made, she has partnered with someone to open a clothing store.¡± Qin Yu knew his father was reluctant and afraid of reckless spending, so he told him that his sister was in the clothing business.
¡°Well done, Qin Xue has really made something of herself.¡± Upon hearing this, Qin Leiughed so hard all the wrinkles on his face bunched up.
¡°Yes, my sister is very amazing.¡± Qin Yu knew his sister was far more capable now than before, and he preferred this stronger version of his sister.
¡°Alright, I¡¯ll go check out the clothes then.¡± When he heard his daughter was making progress, Qin Lei was so happy that he dropped the idea of contending with his son to cook the noodles.
His daughter was filial and thisforted his heart. Moreover, she had also brought clothes for her parents. This made him happy, and he felt that his efforts to raise their daughter were not in vain.
Qin Yu watched his cheerful father leaving, shook his head in amusement, and continued to boil the water to cook noodles.
¡°What¡¯s going on? You seem very happy.¡± Nangong Shn noticed her husband entering with a smile on his face.
¡°Xiao Yu said that Qin Xue brought clothes for the whole family. I was happy to hear that.¡± Qin Lei was grinning as he told his wife.
¡°Yes, Qin Xue has be much more considerate and thoughtful now.¡± Nangong Shn truly felt that it was only after getting married and bing a mother herself that she realized how tough it was for parents.
¡°This way, you won¡¯t have to worry so much in the future.¡± Qin Lei cheerfully told his wife.
¡°You speak as if you are not worried.¡± Nangong Shn jokingly red at her husband, wondering who it was that always grumbled about how their daughter and son-inw were doing and if they were getting along well. How dare he use her?
¡°Hehe.¡± Qin Lei chuckled, feeling a bit awkward as his wife pricked the bubble of his secret worries.
¡°Alright, stop grinning foolishly and go check out the clothes our daughter brought for you.¡± Nangong Shn said helplessly, looking at her husband¡¯s silly expression.
¡°Alright, I am off to look at the clothes my darling daughter brought for her dear father.¡± Qin Lei promptly walked into the room.
Earlier, when Qin Yu unpacked the luggage, he had ced it directly into their room.
Upon seeing the clothes, Qin Lei was stunned.
¡°My goodness! I¡¯ve never seen such beautiful clothes in my life. These must be worth quite a bit of money.¡± Qin Lei appreciated his daughter¡¯s filial heart, but he also fretted about the money spent on the clothes.
¡°Shn.¡± Qin Lei called from inside the room to his wife sitting in the living room.
¡°What is it?¡± Nangong Shn asked after hearing her husband¡¯s voice.
¡°Could youe here for a minute?¡± Qin Lei didn¡¯t quite know what to say.
¡°What happened?¡± Nangong Shn didn¡¯t understand why her husband needed her just to look at some clothes.
¡°Why did Qin Xue buy such fine clothes? This must have cost a lot, right?¡± Qin Lei asked his wife anxiously.
¡°Don¡¯t worry, Qin Xue only bought the fabric, the clothes were made by someone else. So, it didn¡¯t cost much.¡± Nangong Shn immediately knew what her husband was thinking.
¡°But we work at home, wearing such nice clothes would be a pity if they get dirty. Why didn¡¯t you stop her?¡± Qin Lei felt that these clothes were not suitable for them, who worked in the field.
The quality of the fabric was good, and the style was also very beautiful. They were clearly not for farmers like them, but more suited for those having office jobs.

Nangong Shn looked at her husband and said word by word, ¡°When I came back, our daughter said that if you don¡¯t like to wear it, you can give it to someone else.¡±
Upon hearing this, Qin Lei hurriedly folded the clothes and put them in the closet. He couldn¡¯t possibly give the clothes his daughter had given him to someone else.
¡°I won¡¯t give them away. Even if I don¡¯t wear them, I won¡¯t give them to others. If they want clothes, they should ask their own daughters,¡± Qin Lei said as he protectively guarded the closet.
¡°Hehe, then just wear them yourself. After all, your daughter said she will send you clothes from time to time. We¡¯ll see whether you wear them or not,¡± Nangong Shn said to Qin Lei leisurely.
¡°Did my daughter really say that?¡± Qin Lei asked his wife, but deep down, he felt so happy.
¡°Yes, that¡¯s what your daughter said. How do you feel? Happy beyond words, aren¡¯t you?¡± Nangong Shn saw the smile on her husband¡¯s face and didn¡¯t burst his bubble.
¡°Of course I¡¯m happy! Whose daughter is better than ours? Let those who used to gossip about our family be envious and jealous!¡± Qin Lei proudly walked over and took his wife¡¯s hand, leading her out of the room.
¡°Dad, Mom, the noodles are ready. What were you talking about? You both seem so happy,¡± Qin Yu carried in two bowls of noodles and saw his parents¡¯ happy faces, then asked with a light smile.
¡°It¡¯s nothing but your dad getting excited knowing that your sister will send him clothes frequently in the future,¡± Nangong Shn teased her husband and spilled the beans.
¡°That is indeed something worth being happy about. It¡¯s because you two are so frugal and unwilling to spend money that my sister thinks of sending clothes back to you from time to time,¡± Qin Yu said, feeling proud whenever he mentioned his sister.
No one in the entire vige had the capabilities that his sister possessed.
Not only did she marry well, but she also had the ability to help her family while always thinking of her parents. Qin Yu thought his sister¡¯s approach was great.
After all, by lending them a hand, they could live their lives based on that assistance, but if they solely relied on his sister for financial support, it would breedziness, which would be bad in the long run.
Thinking of the words his sister said to him before she left, Qin Yu felt very excited.
His sister had told him, ¡°Xiao Yu, I¡¯ve talked to mom, and we¡¯ve discussed it. As long as it¡¯s not illegal, you can go ahead and do whatever you want in the future. Mom and Dad won¡¯t interfere with your decisions, and I will support you.¡±
At that moment, Qin Yu was deeply moved, knowing that it must have been his sister who had fought for this opportunity for him.
After he brought his little sister to his elder sister¡¯s ce this time, he wanted to try doing business. He wanted his family to enjoy better lives and protect his sister from being bullied by her inws in the future.
¡°Dad, this bowl is yours,¡± After cing a bowl of noodles in front of his mother, Qin Yu put another bowl in front of his father.
¡°Xiao Yu, I have already eaten. You enjoy the meal,¡± Qin Lei had also eaten noodles.
¡°Dad, you should eat a little less then. I cooked a lot, and they will stick together if not eaten,¡± Qin Yu had cooked enough for three people.
¡°Alright then, bring your bowl over, and I¡¯ll take some for you,¡± Qin Lei thought, as the noodles could not go to waste; he would eat some more.
¡°Okay,¡± Qin Yu went to the kitchen to get the noodles.
¡°These two kids are so filial,¡± Qin Lei muttered to himself.
¡°What are you mumbling about? Eat quickly or the noodles will stick together,¡± Nangong Shn looked at her husband¡¯s foolish appearance, wanting to p him to see if it would bring him back to normal.
¡°I¡¯m waiting for Xiao Yu. I¡¯ve already eaten, and I can¡¯t eat that much more. I¡¯ll give some to him,¡± Qin Lei smiled at his wife.
His honest, handsome face, although filled with wrinkles and traces of time, revealed how handsome he must have been when he was younger.
¡°Why did you eat so early today?¡± Nangong Shn knew they didn¡¯t usually eat dinner this early, so why did they eat so early today?
After taking a bite of noodles, Nangong Shn looked up and asked her husband.

After hearing his wife¡¯s question, Qin Lei thought for a moment before he began to recount the recent events.
¡°Big brother and sister-inw are back,¡± Qin Lei said after some hesitation.
¡°Why did theye back so suddenly?¡± Nangong Shn paused her noodle-eating and looked at her husband.
¡°I heard that Xiao Qiu¡¯s boyfriend was messing around with someone else, and Xiao Yun saw it, then broke his leg. The Lis reported it to the police, who arrested Xiao Yun.
Now, the Lis are demanding US$ 500 to release Xiao Yun. Big brother and sister-inw couldn¡¯t raise the money, and they were afraid that the Lis would do something to Xiao Qiu, so they came back,¡± Qin Lei exined everything to his wife.
¡°How can such despicable people exist, who do wrong themselves yet dare to demand money from others?¡± Nangong Shn was quite angry after hearing this.
¡°Yeah, it¡¯s just that Xiao Yun was too impulsive. Why didn¡¯t he think of a better way to handle it?¡± Although Qin Lei didn¡¯t think that it was wrong for Qin Yun to beat people, he should have done it secretly by putting a hood over their heads so they wouldn¡¯t easily catch on.
Because such irresponsible men like that deserved to be severely beaten with a hood on, to teach them what they should and shouldn¡¯t do.
¡°Dad, I think Brother Yun did the right thing.¡± Qin Yu, who had juste in with a bowl of noodles, heard his parents talking.
¡°I don¡¯t think it¡¯s wrong for Xiao Yun to fight back, but he shouldn¡¯t have let himself get caught. Now that he¡¯s been arrested, what do you suggest we do?¡± Qin Lei looked at his son and asked.
¡°I¡¯ll go talk to their family tomorrow and ask them to release Brother Yun.¡± Qin Yu, who had trained for one month in the army, had undergone significant changes in temperament and aura.
¡°How do you n to make them release him?¡± Qin Lei asked his son.
¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry about it. I have my ways. I will make them understand that the Qin family is not to be messed with,¡± Qin Yu said coldly.
