After talking with Qin Qiu for a while, Qin Xue made an excuse that she was tired and wanted to rest. Once Qin Qiu left, Qin Xue lay down, unable to believe that Qin Qiu was really like this.
Was she like this because of the betrayal and canceled marriage or was she always like this? She needed to ask her mother or brother about it.
Qin Xue needed to figure it out since she didn’t want to have too much contact with such people. Not only would she not get any reward for her efforts, but she would also face complaints.
Qin Xue always tried her best to avoid contact with people with such characteristics.
Thinking about this, Qin Xue saw that her child was sleeping well, so she closed her eyes and rested as well.
“Auntie, I’m going back,” Qin Qiu said to Nangong Shulan as soon as she came out.
“Why not stay and have a meal before you go?” Nangong Shulan stood up.
“No, Auntie, I have to go to work in the afternoon.” Qin Qiu didn’t want to stay any longer and preferred to go back to the factory.
“Well, then that’s fine,” Nangong Shulan said, not wanting to insist any further.
“Uncle, Auntie, I’m leaving now.” Qin Qiu took her leave and left.
“Husband, don’t you think Xiao Qiu is too polite?” Nangong Shulan asked her husband.
“Shulan, you don’t need to worry about the kids’ affairs. They’ll handle it themselves.” Qin Lei saw through Qin Qiu’s mindset and reminded his wife.
“Alright, then,” Nangong Shulan nodded while looking at her husband’s expression.
Luu Xiao’ai, accompanied by her grandfather, came to visit the Lis. She was chatting and having tea with An Hao at the moment in the living room.
“An Hao, how many months are you into your pregnancy?” Luu Xiao’ai asked, looking at An Hao’s belly.
“Four months,” An Hao gently touched her belly, smiling sweetly.
“It must be nice,” Luu Xiao’ai looked at An Hao enviously, wondering when Molin would come back and marry her.
“Haha, you’ll have your turn. No need to envy me,” An Hao laughed while looking at Luu Xiao’ai.
“Hopefully. I don’t even know where Molin is right now. It’s been so many years since he left home. Why hasn’t he come back yet?” Luu Xiao’ai seemed to ask An Hao, but it was more like she was talking to herself.
An Hao smiled awkwardly after hearing this. How was she supposed to answer Luu Xiao’ai’s question? Nevermind, she decided to pretend she didn’t hear it.
“Ring, ring, ring,” the phone in the living room rang just as An Hao was feeling awkward and unsure of what to do.
“Hello, this is the Li family in the Imperial Capital,” An Hao answered the phone.
“An’an, it’s me,” Li Zhao recognized his wife’s voice.
“Zhaozi, how’s it going over there?” Ever since their wedding, Li Zhao left for work in S Province, leaving An Hao alone at home. Occasionally, she would go visit her grandmother, but it was quite boring.
“It’s all good. I just miss you,” Li Zhao said, knowing that he would be reunited with his wife soon.
“I miss you too,” An Hao replied shyly.
“An’an, I have some good news for you. Qin Xue just gave birth. Your brother-in-law said he’ll be back in the Imperial Capital in a month,” Li Zhao called his wife with the news right after receiving it, knowing that she and Qin Xue were close.
“Really? That’s great! Did Qin Xue have a boy or a girl?” An Hao asked.
“Uh, An’an, I’m sorry, but I didn’t ask,” Li Zhao said to his wife, looking embarrassed.
“Come on, Zhaozi. You didn’t even ask such an important question? You’re so inconsiderate!” An Hao really wanted to scold her husband.
“It was Qiqi who told me, so I didn’t think to ask,” Li Zhao said, feeling wronged.
“So, how did you know that Molin was coming back? Did Qiqi tell you that too?” An Hao asked her husband, completely forgetting that Luu Xiao’ai was still sitting next to her.
And so, she inadvertently leaked the important news.
