The cold Lu Xiaogun helped her whenever she was in danger, urged her to sleep when she stayed up to study, played songs for her when she was bored, was there for her when she was in pain and was always by her side.
Despite that, he never called her âmomâ. He always called her âYe Qiaoâ, âStupid Ye Qiaoâ and âStinky Ye Qiaoâ.
âYe Qiao, I donât know when Iâll be born,â Lu Xiaogun said seriously.
Any of Ye Qiaoâs child should be him, right?
It must be him!
It canât be any other.
He still had to grow up quickly and become the most outstanding person just like his father.
Although Lu Xiaogun didnât know if he could be reincarnated and become their child, he still thought so arrogantly in his heart.
âHow could you not know? Lu Xiaogun, you will still be momâs child, right? You must be! You must be!â Ye Qiao asked as if she was talking to herself in denial.
Lu Xiaogun was silent.
âLu Xiaogun, youâve been angry with me before and that is why you wonât call me mom, right...â Ye Qiao asked as she leaned against the european-style headboard of the big bed with tears streaming down her face.
âNo! Idiot! Donât cry!â Lu Xiaogun still spoke in a strong tone.
âMom knows that Lu Xiaogun actually loves mom very much. Otherwise, you wouldnât have come to protect me. Youâre still cold towards me and you still wonât say nice things to me,â Ye Qiao cried, âLu Xiaogun, I donât want you to leave... Donât disappear, okay? What will I do if you leave?â
Lu Xiaogun had become a part of her life. She couldnât imagine what she would do without him in the future.
Stupid Ye Qiao was smart enough to know that he didnât really dislike her.
âYou still have your father, many friends and the elders who spoil you. You have to study, go to work, fight against the bad guys, save your father and save your uncles. Ye Qiao, my energy is gone. I have to disappear. I donât want to leave you either, stupid mom,â Lu Xiaogun said.
Ye Qiaoâs eyes were filled with tears. The last time she cried so hard was when Lu Xiaogun appeared three years ago. This time, she was even sadder than she was at that time.
Although she knew that he would come back, her heart was aching and panicking.
âLu Xiaogun, you have to come back as soon as possible, okay?â As soon as mom gives birth to you, you will grow up and play games with your dad. He will teach you how to play basketball and go to the shooting range. Do you understand? We will give you a very nice name. We usually say that we want a daughter but in fact, we were just teasing you. When you grow up, of course you will spoil your wife and love her unconditionally,â Ye Qiao said to give him a picture of how his life would be if he were to be reborn as her child, tempting him to come back.
âYe Qiao, thereâs not much time left. Remember this,â Lu Xiaogang said seriously.
Ye Qiao paused for a moment then listened to what he had to say.
âUncle Da Shaâs hand was struck by a booby trap when he was defusing a bomb. Uncle Ye Cheng was sent to the ZD region and it was only later known that Scorpionâs people were the one that took him away. Uncle Ye Cheng passed sooner than dad did so no one knew,â Lu Xiaogun said to her in all seriousness.
Lu Xiaogunâs voice became weaker and weaker as if he was going to disappear at any moment.
