As soon as Qin Xue returned to the hotel room, she sat down on the bed.
Taking off her shoes, she leaned on the bed with one hand and rubbed her feet with the other.
Chu Molin saw her and quickly pulled a chair over to sit beside the bed. He took Qin Xue’s foot and placed it on his thigh, gently massaging it.
He had been careless, knowing that his wife was heavy with child, and still let her walk for so long.
Chu Molin pressed his lips tightly together but his movements were not rough, rather, they were gentle.
“Chu Molin, smile for me.” Qin Xue knew from his expression that he blamed himself.
Chu Molin didn’t look up at Qin Xue, but continued to massage her foot.
“Chu Molin, are you angry with me?” Qin Xue deliberately lowered her voice, making it sound pitiful.
“No.” How could Chu Molin be angry with her? He was angry with himself for being so careless.
“Then why don’t you smile?” Qin Xue knew that Chu Molin liked to smile in front of her, unlike his cold demeanor in front of others.
She preferred the warm and lively Chu Molin, not the cold one she saw now.
“I can’t smile.” Chu Molin finally spoke, still pursing his lips.
“Why can’t you smile?” Qin Xue slowly guided Chu Molin’s emotions.
“I knew you were heavy with child, but I still took you out to have fun.” Chu Molin spoke in a muffled voice.
“But I’m really happy, I don’t feel tired at all. I think going shopping together and seeing all kinds of things in the mortal world is my idea of happiness.
Or are you saying you don’t want me to have this kind of happiness?” Qin Xue asked Chu Molin.
“How could that be? In this lifetime, all I want is for you to be happy.” Chu Molin looked up at Qin Xue and said word by word after hearing her words.
“Well then, isn’t that settled? I feel happy right now. And I’ll tell you, walking is good for pregnant women; it helps with delivery later. So you’re not harming me, rather, you’re accompanying me in exercising, you know?” Qin Xue touched his face with her hand, and looked at him gently.
It is said that tough men have tender hearts, and when this tough man became gentle, it could be soul-stirring.
Who would have thought that the cold Yama of the Wolf Fang would have no airs in front of his wife, and instead be as gentle as water? If Qin Xue did not feel moved by such an excellent man, she would not be worthy of happiness.
Qin Xue wondered how many loyal and good men like this there were in the modern world.
Most of the stories she heard were about someone’s boyfriend cheating or someone’s husband having an affair, or the neighbor Old Wang getting together with another woman.
Faced with so many promiscuous people in the modern world, Qin Xue would firmly grasp the happiness in front of her, never letting go of this man in her life. Unless this man becomes like her scumbag father, she would never give up on him as long as he doesn’t leave her.
This was Qin Xue’s determination, a life-long determination, like that of a person who doesn’t give up till they reach the Yellow River.
“Xue’er, in this life, I, Chu Molin, vow never to let you down.” Chu Molin looked at his wife in front of him, and her every word touched his heart deeply. She really understood his heart.
“Remember your own words.” Qin Xue looked at him seriously.
“Mm, I, Chu Molin, have never broken a promise.” Chu Molin gazed affectionately at Qin Xue.
“I believe you.” Qin Xue smiled happily.
She had found her happiness, but had the people she cared about found theirs?
“Achoo!” Chu Beiying, who was on her way back, sneezed.
“Who’s talking about me?” Chu Beiying rubbed her itchy nose and muttered softly.
