When Qiao Mo woke up the next morning, she subconsciously reached out to her side. It was empty, and the bed beside him had long since become ice-cold.
Qiao Mo opened his eyes and looked around. Other than her, she could not see Xiao Yan.
It was unknown whether it was because the past had cast too much of a shadow over Qiao Mo or because Qiao Mo was too sensitive, but the moment she noticed that Xiao Yan wasn't by her side, she was fiercely startled. Then, she carefully held her stomach and got off the bed.
When Qiao Mo wore her slippers and walked down to the living room, she also looked around but did not find Xiao Yan either. She became completely flustered.
Could it be … Xiao Yan said goodbye to her again?
But last night, when they had been so good, when he had asked her about her past, she had leaned into his arms and said things that should have been sad, but she hadn't felt sad at all because of his company.
But now, why was Xiao Yan missing again?
Where did he go?
Qiao Mo was drowsy for a few seconds, then she immediately turned to look for her phone, wanting to call Xiao Yan.
She made the first call, but there was no answer. The panic in her heart was like an ant eating her food, almost causing her to collapse.
Was the phone unable to connect again?
Next, would he disappear for many more days?
Qiao Mo slumped onto the sofa in a daze, her hand holding onto her mobile phone, seemingly lacking the courage to make a second call. Qiao Mo buried her face deep within her palms as she helplessly sighed.
Ah Yan, why is that? Where are you?
This kind of torment seemed to have been in a vicious circle ever since that time. Qiao Mo did not know when she would be able to free herself from that vicious circle.
From his actions, it was not hard to see why Xiao Yan still loved her and cared for her. One person's words could lie, but a person's eyes could never be faked.
When he looked at her, there was only her in his eyes and in his heart.
If it was because of Su Qingwan, that would be why Xiao Yan left her.
The phone in his hand suddenly vibrated.
Qiao Mo froze. The caller ID showed that it was Xiao Yan.
Her heart jumped, as if she did not expect Xiao Yan to call back.
"Ah Yan, where are you?"
When the call connected, Qiao Mo asked impatiently.
Zhao Qian recognized Qiao Mo's anxious voice and said: "Madam, it's me, Zhao Qian. The Boss is in a meeting and it's not convenient for him to pick up the phone, he saw your call and was afraid that you would be anxious, so she asked me to give you a call to notify you."
Qiao Mo held onto her phone, her lips moving, suddenly she fell silent.
What's wrong with her? Xiao Yan was only going to the company for a meeting, but she was so anxious that she wanted to search the entire world for him.
It was as if, in the next second, he would really disappear from this world or go to a place where she couldn't find him. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't find him.
Qiao Mo pursed her lips and finally let out a sigh of relief, "Oh, I understand, then … When he's finished, ask him to call me. "
"Sure, no problem."
… ….
Qiao Mo hung up and took a deep breath.
She looked at the screen that was still dark and found it funny.
Was her behavior considered to be under the control of her wife?
… ….
Xiao's Building, CEO's Office
After Xiao Yan left the meeting room and returned to his office, he took a look at the phone on his desk.
Zhao Qian reminded, "Oh, right. Boss, Madam wants you to call her after the meeting. She might have something to tell you."
Xiao Yan slightly nodded, "Alright, I understand."
After Zhao Qian left the office with the documents, Xiao Yan picked up the phone on the table and stood in front of the french window. Looking at the blurry street scenery beneath his feet, he called Qiao Mo.
The call quickly connected.
Xiao Yan laughed lightly: "You're thinking of me so quickly?"
On the other hand, Qiao Mo was startled by the question, "I …"
She was just afraid. She was afraid that he would once again disappear into her world for no reason.
Qiao Mo pursed her lips and tightly gripped the phone in her hand. She was actually a little drenched in sweat as she curled her lips and said with a bitter and low voice: "I had thought that you would be like last time, leaving without saying goodbye …"
Her voice was very soft, but it still pierced Xiao Yan's heart.
He had only come to the company for a meeting, but she was unable to find his person, so she was worried about him.
He understood the bitterness in her heart, but …
Xiao Yan was silent for half a second, then laughed casually on the other end of the phone, "What are you thinking about?
Qiao Mo replied softly, "Mhm."
That taut string finally loosened.
"Are you coming back for lunch?"
Xiao Yan looked at the mountain of documents on the desk and frowned, "I'm afraid I won't be able to come back."
Qiao Mo seemed to be somewhat regretful, but in the end, she still obediently said: "Then work well, I'll wait for your return."
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Mo looked at his phone in a daze.
Before, when Xiao Yan came back, he had already been at home for many days, fully focused on accompanying her, but he was greedy. The more he got, the more he wanted.
Xiao Yan had already wasted his work for a long time, so he should go and work at the company.
Qiao Mo lowered her head, looked at his bulging stomach, stroked his stomach, and asked: "Zi Xi, Zi Wang, is mother too selfish?"
It was unknown if the two children in Qiao Mo's stomach truly heard what Qiao Mo said or if they really did make small movements in Qiao Mo's stomach.
Qiao Mo was pleasantly surprised when she felt the movement, "You guys also think that mother is too selfish? But Mom really wants Dad to stay with us. "
He didn't know why, but he had never had such an intense thought before. But ever since Xiao Yan had become so distant from her, that indestructible emotion had become extremely fragile and fragile. Qiao Mo was extremely afraid that in an unknown future, that feeling would be completely shattered.
She had always thought that it was because she had become too sensitive after her pregnancy. But now, this sensitive period had already persisted for such a long time. Was it really because she had become too sensitive?
Or could it be that Xiao Yan had really left too big of a shadow over her?
… ….
Qiao Mo absent-mindedly ate lunch, causing the pregnant women to fall asleep. In the afternoon, Qiao Mo was extremely sleepy and slept soundly.
When he woke up again, it was already four in the afternoon. The winter sun had set very early, and when he looked out the window, the sun was already setting in the west.
Coincidentally, the sound of wheels turning on a car came from downstairs. Xiao Yan must be back.
It was four in the afternoon and Xiao's had not gotten off work. Thinking about it, Xiao Yan should have returned home early.
Qiao Mo slept soundly, but sshe really didn't want to move, he could only lie down and silently wait for Xiao Yan to go upstairs.
The familiar steady footsteps gradually drew closer.
Qiao Mo's heart also slowly calmed down.
When Xiao Yan pushed open the bedroom door, his lips curved up into a smile, "You're back."
"Yes." Xiao Yan replied softly as he took off the outer coat and casually threw it aside.
The man, dressed in a shirt, approached her and saw her lazy manner. "Did you sleep for a long time?"
Qiao Mo took the opportunity and fell into his arms. Her long hair was fluffy and soft, like a lazy, seductive kitten, and her face had a healthy faint red blush. "Yeah, my stomach has been getting heavier and heavier recently, and my brain is getting heavier and heavier. It's like I don't get enough sleep every day. "
Xiao Yan's large hand caressed her long hair, and said with a gentle voice: "Do you want to go out and play?"
Qiao Mo was startled, she did not expect Xiao Yan to suddenly mention about travelling, "Are you saying that we should travel?"
"Mm, where do you want to go? I'll take you there."
Qiao Mo was startled for half a second, then shook her head and hugged his waist: "I don't want to go anywhere, I just want to stay at home with you, as long as you don't disappear, and stay with me every day. Ah Yan... "
She called to him again.
"Hmm? "What's wrong?"
"Am I being too selfish? I want you to be with me and the baby every moment, even every second. I know that's not right, you have your own things to do, Xiao's needs you too, but … "
"Wife Zi Xi is hoping that husband will always be by her side. How can this be selfish? I also want to stay by your side every day. "
Three hundred and sixty-five days, twelve months, twenty-four hours, all the time she was there, watching over her, watching over their child.
If he had any of the greatest or most extravagant ideals in his life, it would probably be this.
Qiao Mo slightly raised her head, her clear eyes looking at him, "Really?"
"Little Mo, tell me what you want to do and where you want to go. I'll accompany you."
Qiao Mo stared at his serene eyes and slightly frowned. Her small hands caressed his brows as she asked in a puzzled manner, "What's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly say all these?"
Now that she had a big stomach, it would definitely be inconvenient for her to travel. If she really went out on a trip, she would be exhausted before she could even enjoy it.
She was still carrying the twins in her stomach, so her natural weight was heavier than an ordinary pregnant woman. If she were to go out, she and Xiao Yan would probably not be able to have any fun.
Moreover, she didn't even want to travel around the entire world right now. Her heart was with him, and she only wanted to stay with him in this small world, as if she wouldn't get tired of it no matter what.
Xiao Yan calmly explained, "I'm just afraid that you'll feel bored when you're alone at home."
"How could that be? Waiting for you at home to get off work is a good feeling. I won't feel stuffy. Furthermore, Zi Xi and Zi Wang will be born soon, my stomach is also heavy, and going out is not very convenient. Why not wait for me to finish sitting in the Crescent son's seat and take Zi Xi and Zi Wang out with me? "
Xiao Yan pressed his forehead against hers, "I still want to live together with you two in this world."
Qiao Mo laughed, "Then leave them at home for mother to bring for a few days, we will go out and secretly enjoy for a few days."
The two of them seemed to be children, Xiao Yan's expression was relaxed and clear, without a hint of gloominess.
But that kind of days without pressure, seemed to be coming to an end soon. Maybe he wouldn't be able to wait for her to bring Zi Xi and his son back to life, or for her to finish taking the month, much less wait for their two worlds.
