Actually, Chu Molin was not afraid of anything else; he just worried about others affecting Qin Xue and her children. After all, he was going to join the military school and would not be home often. If someone came to trouble them, who would help them? So, it was best if they didn’t involve anyone else.

However, they knew that was impossible, and it was only a matter of time. For now, he just hoped that his wife could live a peaceful life, undisturbed by these things. Then, he would be grateful.

“Did you tell Zhaozi we’ve arrived, or has he also gotten here already?” Chu Molin thought about how their spouses would definitely join the fun together after they arrived.

If his wife could be with An Hao, at least they would have company. This would ease his mind and he wouldn’t have to worry too much about her not being able to take care of the child alone.

“He knows, I told him the date when I came back, so he came back too.

You wouldn’t believe how fast he acted. As soon as I said I’d come back, he immediately made arrangements, and we arrived in Imperial Capital one right after the other,” said Xiao Qi with a smile.

Though sometimes a bit silly, this guy was mostly reliable, or else the years he spent in the army would have been wasted, right?

If Li Zhao knew how little these two men thought of him, he might have wondered whether he’d made a mistake in keeping them as friends.

Chu Molin took this opportunity to ask Xiao Qi to help take care of his wife and child: “Qiqi, I only have one day of rest a week.

If Xue’er and her children need anything, please help them. If there’s anything they can’t solve, I’ll deal with it when I come back.”

“Big brother, do you really need to remind me of that? I’ll definitely help as soon as my sister-in-law asks. I’ll also bring you news, so don’t worry,” Xiao Qi replied confidently.

“Brother, thank you. Let’s go,” Chu Molin stood up.

“Big brother, they haven’t arrived yet?” Xiao Qi asked.

“They’re already here, we’ll meet them just as we go out,” Chu Molin took the lead and walked out.

Xiao Qi was a bit skeptical but followed him out. As soon as he opened the door, he saw three people walking towards them.

Chu Molin gave him a ‘told-you-so’ look, but when he saw one of them, his face turned cold.

“Big brother, we’re here!” Li Zhao shouted as he saw Chu Molin.

“Molin, Xiao Qi,” An Hao, heavily pregnant, walked slowly.

“Big brother, Qiqi,” Chu Xiaoqiao was very excited to see her big brother after so many years but felt sad when she saw his cold expression. Why couldn’t her big brother accept her?

Even if there was a problem, it was between their parents. What did it have to do with her? It had been her childhood dream to be close to her big brother.

“Big brother, about this…” Li Zhao didn’t know what to do either. Chu Xiaoqiao was playing at their house, and when she heard they were going to visit Xiao Qi, she wanted to come too.

If there was a lame excuse, she claimed she hadn’t seen Xiao Qi for many years. It’s a bluff; she clearly saw him at their wedding last time. The real reason for coming was hearing that Chu Molin was nearby.

But everyone knew that these siblings didn’t get along, and Li Zhao brought her along at the risk of being beaten by Chu Molin. He just hoped that he wouldn’t take it out on him.

“Since you’re all here, let’s go,” Chu Molin finally spoke, neither inviting nor rejecting Chu Xiaoqiao’s presence.

So is Chu Xiaoqiao allowed to come along or not? Can you give a clear answer, big brother? Li Zhao was inwardly panicked. If he had known earlier, he would never have let her come along.
