Qin Xue figured she couldn’t avoid this scene, so she stuck her head out of the kitchen doorway and looked into the living room.
With a “clang” sound, the basin Qin Xue was holding in her hand fell to the ground, and the potatoes inside rolled everywhere.
Qin Xue was trembling with excitement, and tears quickly filled her face.
Her mouth moved, but she couldn’t speak.
Upon hearing the noise, Chu Molin rushed towards Qin Xue, asking, “Xue’er, are you okay?”
Nangong Shulan and Qin Yu entered without seeing Qin Xue and thought she had gone out.
But then they heard Chu Molin shouting toward the kitchen, and as they turned around,
they saw Qin Xue drop the basin from her hands, tears streaming down her face as she looked at them excitedly.
The moment the plate hit the floor, they thought it was because Chu Molin had mistreated her so much that she grew so excited when she saw them.
But seeing Chu Molin’s concerned and worried expression, it didn’t seem like he had been unkind to her at all.
Originally, when Qin Xue saw Mrs. Qin, she was really emotional. Because this was her mother, the one who had left her when she was five years old.
Qin Xue didn’t know what to do at first, but when she heard Chu Molin’s voice, she came to her senses. After glancing at Chu Molin and telling him she was fine, she pushed his hand away, ran towards Mrs. Qin, and threw herself into her arms, sobbing loudly.
This display stunned the four people present, leaving them wondering what had happened to Qin Xue.
“Xiao Xue, tell Mommy what happened.” Nangong Shulan looked at her crying heartbrokenly.
“Sister, did your brother-in-law treat you badly?” Qin Yu, usually calm, was flustered by Qin Xue’s tears and blurted out the question.
Chu Molin listened and pursed his lips, not saying anything.
He knew that Qin Xue must be upset for a reason other than what Qin Yu had suggested, and it was likely related to the secret she had been concealing from him.
Hearing Nangong Shulan’s voice, Qin Xue cried even harder.
Helpless, Chu Molin could only pack a few buns for Li Dabao and ask him to return first, promising to invite him to dinner another day.
Nangong Shulan saw her beloved daughter crying so sadly and didn’t say anything to her. She glared at Chu Molin and gently patted Qin Xue’s back.
This girl was still the same, never giving anyone peace of mind. Carrying a child, she shouldn’t be crying like this.
But Nangong Shulan could see that Qin Xue was venting.
Not wanting to interrupt her, she wondered how much grievance Qing Xue must have endured to cry like this.
Nangong Shulan, usually gentle, couldn’t help but feel angry.
“Xiao Chu, tell me, did you bully Xiao Xue?” Nangong Shulan looked at Chu Molin with some disappointment.
At first, she thought this young man was quite good, and since her daughter insisted on marrying him, she had no choice but to agree. But now, had she made a mistake?
“Mom, I didn’t bully Xue’er, I cherish her too much.
Everything was fine just now. It’s probably because she hasn’t seen you for so long, so she’s overwhelmed with emotion.” Chu Molin had some idea of the reason, but he wasn’t sure about the specifics.
“Brother-in-law, come out with me.” Qin Yu gritted his teeth and spoke to Chu Molin.
“Okay.” Chu Molin replied and was about to follow Qin Yu out when,
Qin Xue, hearing Nangong Shulan and Qin Yu’s words and realizing they had misunderstood, raised her head from Nangong Shulan’s embrace.
She quickly said, “Don’t go out, I’m fine. Chu Molin has been good to me, I just got too emotional seeing you all after such a long time.”
“So you’re really okay? Your brother-in-law didn’t bully you?” Qin Yu cautiously asked Qin Xue.
“No, Chu Molin has really been good to me.
I just haven’t been away from Mom for this long before, so I missed her,” Qin Xue said shyly..
