Chapter 41 Xuebao's cry

After the two finished their meal, Ji Qiuxue looked at Rong Yuqiu who was packing up the lunch boxes and thought of her daughter who's waiting for her at home. "When will you come back home with me?" "Huh?" Rong Yuqiu turned her head in confusion, her heart beating faster. She nervously clenched the chopsticks in her hand. Is she going home with her so soon?

Rong Yuqiu obviously had the wrong idea. Her face turned red and she looked at Ji Qiuxue a little at a loss, her eyes darting left and right, her heart full of shyness and avoidance. Her eyelashes were blinking nervously, her heart rate began to soar, and her little heart was pounding. As soon as Ji Qiuxue saw her evasive yet expectant look, she knew that this person had lost her mind again, as if she had completely forgotten that she had a daughter.

She was feeling angry and helpless as she secretly glared at Rong Yuqiu who's unaware of anything. Rong Yuqiu is still thinking about how to politely refuse. She felt that their relationship couldn't be completed in one go, they should take it slow. After all, so many years have passed, and except for kissing and hugging each other in her dreams, this is the first time she has had intimate contact with the other person in reality, especially head massage and hugging.

Of course, she didn't know that Ji Qiuxue kissed her on the cheek. Ji Qiuxue leaned on the armrest of the sofa with one hand, admiring Rong Yuqiu's hesitation to speak, her big twinkling eyes, and the timid aura on her face. Rong Yuqiu wanted to say something in her heart but hesitated. She just couldn't say no to Ji Qiuxue. She didn't know how to tell her tactfully that it seemed too soon to go back now.

Ji Qiuxue saw her embarrassment. She's now just like she was when they first met. She was also so at a loss. As long as she got a little closer, she would become stiff and avoid her helplessly. She would quietly pay attention to me like a kitten, and when she found that I could get close to her, she would stick her head out and happily stay by my side. Once she finds that she cannot get close, she will immediately retreat, hide aside and observe me cautiously. If I push her away too far, she will take a step back and it will be difficult to contact me again.

It took her a lot of effort to hold this timid woman in her hands, and after getting familiar with her, she realized how much this person loves to act like a spoiled child. She has a natural desire to protect others. When she is alone, she can be harmonious and at peace with the world. When there is someone else around, she will be friendly and enthusiastic to make friends with them. But once it went beyond the boundaries of friendship, she started to act awkward and timid. Just being nice to her and showing some affection would be enough to scare off this timid little kitty.

Before Ji Qiuxue was with her, she used her charm to attract her, but at the same time she felt so annoyed by her timid and evasive nature that she became autistic. She couldn't understand why such a sunny and cheerful person would become like a little fool when faced with love problems. But, at that time, Ji Qiuxue only fell in love with her.

She can flirt with others and laugh openly, but whenever you get a little closer, she will panic and be at a loss. Anyone with a discerning eye can see her affection, but she herself can't. Ji Qiuxue couldn't help but sigh when she thought of this. Looking at Rong Yuqiu who's still dawdling there putting away her things and couldn't think of how to answer her, she couldn't help but raise her hand and kick Rong Yuqiu's calf.

The gentle touch on her leg frightened Rong Yuqiu so much that she quickly got up and walked away. She didn't even dare to turn around to look at Ji Qiuxue to tell her to stop making trouble. Ji Qiuxue looked at the person who took two steps away from her with amusement. Finally, she couldn't bear to let Rong Yuqiu continue to struggle, so she reached out and grabbed her.

Rong Yuqiu turned her head and looked at the person who's pulling her white shirt. She looked at her blankly, "What's wrong?" "Sit down first, I want to tell you something." Ji Qiuxue patted the sofa and motioned her to sit down quickly. Rong Yuqiu sat upright on the sofa, looking at Ji Qiuxue seriously and listening to her.

Ji Qiuxue looked into her bright and deep eyes and was attracted by the deep affection in them. It seemed as if there's light in the deepest part of her eyes, attracting you to get closer to her. "Don't look at me like that. I thought you were going to confess to me!" Ji Qiuxue blushed when she looked at her and reached out to move her face away. The feeling of touch on her face made Rong Yuqiu's whole pretty face blush, and her eyes gradually became watery, with a harmless look.

"Do you still remember little Xuebao?" Ji Qiuxue said softly to Rong Yuqiu with her eyelashes trembling. Rong Yuqiu opened her eyes suddenly and said that she had forgotten something. Oh, she had forgotten little Xuebao! Rong Yuqiu clenched her right fist and pounded her left palm with a snapping sound. She asked with a guilty conscience, "Is Xiaoxuebao okay?"

"Yeah, she should be fine. I haven't been home for a day and a night. Aren't you talking to her on the phone every day?" Ji Qiuxue raised her eyelids and looked at the guilty person. Rong Yuqiu rubbed her trousers at her knees guiltily, "I seem to have forgotten." The two looked at each other at the same time, they seemed to have both forgotten their daughter.

Ji Qiuxue burst out laughing, and Rong Yuqiu also started to smile foolishly. She scratched her head, feeling a sense of distance in her heart. She wanted to see little Xuebao but was afraid that she would burst into tears if she saw her. "I've always thought how nice it would be if Xiao Xuebao is my daughter. She's so well-behaved and cute." Rong Yuqiu's heart almost melted when she thought of the adorable and chubby little girl.

"Now that your wish has come true, do you have anything to say?" Ji Qiuxue looked at her curiously. Rong Yuqiu looked at her and pursed her lips slightly, "I want to say, thank you for your hard work when I was away." She reached out and gently held Ji Qiuxue's wrist. Ji Qiuxue watched as the grievances hidden in her heart surfaced. She didn't dare let anyone know that she had a daughter out of wedlock, as others said she was a liar who was cheating people of their money and their women.

Ji Qiuxue still remembers her panic when she couldn't find her, her tears when she was pregnant, and her longing for her lover when she had morning sickness. She almost forgot how she managed to hold on during those days. Rong Yuqiu looked at the person with mist in her eyes and reached out to hug her in her arms. "I won't go anywhere in the future. I will just live quietly with you and the child." Rong Yuqiu hugged her tightly. Ji Qiuxue sniffed, "Then will you accompany me back to see little Xuebao?"

Rong Yuqiu was silent for a long time. Ji Qiuxue turned her head and looked at her, her eyes full of accusations. What did you just say? Rong Yuqiu received her accusation, lowered her head in guilt and shame, even her shoulders drooped, "Do you think Xiao Xuebao would be happy if she knew that I'm her real mother?" Rong Yuqiu is worriedly wondering if the child would not be able to accept it if she knew that she was her real mother.

"Why are you so stupid? Do you think I would let my daughter call a stranger "mom"? " Ji Qiuxue grabbed Rong Yuqiu's ears and didn't know what to say to her. Rong Yuqiu tilted her head slightly to make it easier for Ji Qiuxue to hold her ears. Her eyes lit up and sparkled. She grabbed Ji Qiuxue's hand and said, "Then let's go back and see the child." "There's no need to be so anxious." Ji Qiuxue was excitedly dragged home by Rong Yuqiu, who couldn't wait to see her child.

Little Xuebao, who's still at home, is laying on peppa pig of boredom, with her tiny body resting on the little pig standing on four legs. The chubby little face was pressed against the pig in a daze, while the nanny and the kindergarten teacher were accompanying her to class on the other side. The kindergarten teacher read the entertaining and educational English course for children, and occasionally exchanged a sentence with Xiao Xuebao, who answered in a weak and drawn-out voice.

Mommy didn't come home today, and mom didn't call her on video. She seemed like she was forgotten by the whole world. Little Xuebao turned her head to the side and leaned against the pig with grievance, and her transparent tears were completely absorbed by the pig. Not long after, the door lock clicked, and little Xuebao quickly stood up and looked at the door eagerly. As soon as the door opened, Ji Qiuxue walked in and was greeted by a sweet and soft Xiao Xuebao.

Little Xuebao lay on Ji Qiuxue's thigh in a depressed mood, neither saying a word nor calling anyone. Rong Yuqiu squatted down and looked at her through Ji Qiuxue's leg. Little Xuebao looked at her, her little mouth pursed, and tears as big as beans fell one after another. Rong Yuqiu hugged her with eyes full of pity, "Oh oh oh, don't cry, little Xuebao." Her hands had been gently patting little Xuebao's back to coax her.

But the more she coaxed Xiao Xuebao, the harder she cried, "Wuuuuu... I thought... wuuuu... you didn't want me anymore wuuuu..." Xiao Xuebao raised her head and cried, which made people feel heartbroken. Her stumbling words made Rong Yuqiu and Ji Qiuxue's eyes tear up, especially Rong Yuqiu, who couldn't help but hugged Xiao Xuebao and cried with her.

When the nanny saw this scene, she quietly left with the kindergarten teacher. She left all the space in the house to their family and went out to find a cafe to sit in. Rong Yuqiu and Ji Qiuxue held little Xuebao in their arms and tried to coax her, but little Xuebao, who had just regained a sense of security, kept crying and venting her grievances, burping while crying.

Rong Yuqiu's eyes were red and tears kept flowing like crazy. Little Xuebao lay on her shoulder, crying softly, "Mom... woo woo woo... don't leave me... woo woo~" Her voice almost broke Rong Yuqiu's tears, "No, mom will always be with our little Xuebao, mom will never leave anywhere in the future." Rong Yuqiu hugged little Xuebao and kissed her forehead hard. She didn't dislike the little Xuebao who's crying and sweating. Smelling her milk fragrance, Rong Yuqiu's heart ached even more.

Ji Qiuxue looked at the big and small ones crying in tacit understanding, especially the similar faces with tears in their eyes, she didn't know who to comfort. Little Xuebao hugged Rong Yuqiu's neck and refused to let go, and was unwilling to get down from her even when he felt tired of crying. "Mom, can you sleep with me tonight?" Little Xuebao asked Rong Yuqiu pitifully while nestling in her arms. Rong Yuqiu nodded hurriedly. She touched Xiao Xuebao's soft hair and said tenderly, "Of course."

"Then can Mommy accompany us?" Xiao Xuebao looked at Ji Qiuxue with tears in her eyes. Ji Qiuxue also nodded under Rong Yuqiu's expectant gaze. She wanted to see if Rong Yuqiu could still look so pitiful when she slept at night instead of being stiff and daring not to move. After getting a satisfactory answer, little Xuebao curled up in Rong Yuqiu's arms, sobbing with satisfaction.
