The next day, Shi Xingcan woke up early in the morning.
"You can come work at my company." The corner of Qin Yanmo's mouth raised slightly. He was wearing a nightgown as he leaned against the window. His figure was extremely tall, and it basically blocked all the light.
The feeling of being able to see Shi Xingcan when he opened his eyes made him feel very good.
"No need." Shi Xingcan shook his head, "I am already very grateful to you for taking me in."
Qin Yanmo's eyes stared at her pure face for a long time. After a while, he said in a low voice: "Are you afraid that the time home will find out and they won't treat your mother?"
Shi Xingcan, who was combing her hair, looked back, her almond eyes that were filled with a resolute light: "Yes, Shi Mengxi and Su Qing are both vicious people, my mother's life is nothing in their eyes."
Qin Yanmo looked out of the window at the scenery. His eyes that were originally brimming with laughter, were now hidden in the shadows cast by his eyelashes.
After quickly finishing breakfast, Shi Xingcan rushed out.
Qin Yanmo pulled her who was in a hurry and asked her: "Have you decided where to work yet?"
Shi Xingcan smiled and said: "I was an editor before, so I'm naturally looking for a job as an editor now."
"What editor are you going to be? Food? Fashion? Beauty? Cartoon? Or is it literature? "
Shi Xingcan laughed bitterly: "Do you think I have a choice?"
"Where's your resume?"
"Ugh …" I'm not done yet. " Shi Xingcan stammered, "Let's go out and check the situation today, we'll take a look at your resume when we get back tonight."
Qin Yanmo's expression was indolent, but his eyes were sharp. "Are you hiding something from me?"
Shi Xingcan promptly shook her head, as if she was trying to conceal something. "No, I just wanted to go out and take a look."
His black eyes were even deeper, obviously not really believing what Shi Xingcan was saying.
However, he still chose to compromise. "Wait for me for a few minutes, I'll escort you out."
"No need." Shi Xingcan's heartbeat slowly started to accelerate, afraid that Qin Yanmo would notice anything amiss, "Sorry to trouble you."
Qin Yanmo's smiling face enlarged in front of her, and there was a warm feeling of his lips brushing past it. He smiled and said.
Shi Xingcan lowered her head, her face a little red, little dots of light flickering in her bright and beautiful eyes.
Qin Yanmo looked at her beautiful face and pulled her to the garage.
Shi Xingcan opened her eyes wide as she looked at the various cars in the garage, and could not help but exclaim: "You have so many cars!"
"Which one do you like? I'll send you off. " Qin Yanmo said generously.
Shi Xingcan shook her head. She did not even have a driver's license.
Qin Yanmo was only casually asking, without needing to think to know, Shi Xingcan would definitely not accept his car.
"Where are you going?"
"Just leave me on the pedestrian street." Shi Xingcan looked at the scenery on both sides that was gradually becoming more prosperous, he suppressed the anxiety in his heart and tried his best to not let Qin Yanmo see that something was wrong.
"Did you get the card I gave you?"
Shi Xingcan nodded and said softly, "I will return the money to you."
Qin Yanmo slightly curled his lips, a bit of golden light leaking out from his charming eyes: "I'm not lacking in money, I only lack a wife."
"Don't, don't spout nonsense." Shi Xingcan's tone carried a sense of pout, and a smile quietly leaked out from her lips.
Qin Yanmo took a glance at it from the corner of his eyes, and his heart was filled with joy and peace. Had Shi Xingcan already accepted him?
The car slowly stopped at the entrance of the Walking Street. Qin Yanmo looked up and said: "I have a magazine, you can work there."
Shi Xingcan laughed as she shook her head, "Let's talk after I can't find a job."
Qin Yanmo did not force her, they would be his people sooner or later anyway, so he was in no hurry.
After his car drove away, the first thing Shi Xingcan did was to go to the pharmacy to get a pregnancy test stick.
She specially bought a few more in case the results were inaccurate, and then rushed home by taxi after buying them. She was extremely thankful that Qin Yanmo had kindly left her some money.
Halfway into the car, Qin Yanmo called her.
"Xingcan, which company did you interview?"
"I'm going back," Shi Xingcan said hesitantly. "My body is feeling a little uncomfortable."
"This afternoon, Jiang Jiafeng will go to his house to check on Qu Biao's body, and at the same time, have him show you," Qin Yanmo sounded rather noisy, "If you have time, go accompany Qu Biao."
"Yes." Shi Xingcan felt a warm feeling in her heart when she heard his warning and worried tone. Was this what it felt like to be home?
"How is Qu Biao recovering?" Shi Xingcan asked carefully, afraid that she had heard bad news.
"Good. He started asking me a week ago when you were back." Qin Yanmo's tone carried a hint of a smile, "He must have gone silly laughing when he saw you."
Shi Xingcan was amused by his words, and a lot of her nervousness disappeared: "I'm already home."
"Mn, go and visit Qu Biao, and have a good night's sleep. I can only go back at night."
The car stopped steadily at the door of the villa. Shi Xingcan rushed into the washroom without even searching for money.
The process of waiting was just like before the college entrance examination results were released. There was some anticipation in the heart, but at the same time, there was also fear of disappointment.
When Shi Xingcan saw the two barbs in front of him with her own eyes, although she was happy, he didn't dare believe it.
She hugged her knees as she sat on the toilet lid, unable to control her tears.
His mind was filled with too many thoughts, worry, sadness, confusion, and secret joy …
When she finally stopped crying, Qin Yanmo's phone call came in.
"Yan Mo." Shi Xingcan's voice was still filled with tears, "I …"
"What's wrong?" Qin Yanmo comforted her gently. Since last night, Shi Xingcan had been a little weird, she had only felt lonely because of being abandoned by his family.
Shi Xingcan used the back of her hand to wipe away the tears that had just flowed down her face.
She still didn't have the courage to speak the truth …
Qin Yanmo sighed: "Xingcan, you don't have to hide anything from me, I will always be on your side."
Hearing his promise, Shi Xingcan felt the anxiety in her heart lessen, and she laughed: "I know, you will always be by my side, but I need to think about this matter carefully."
"Okay," Qin Yanmo agreed without hesitation, his tone filled with tenderness. "I'll wait for you."
Shi Xingcan twisted the pregnancy test stick and threw it into the toilet, then asked Qin Yanmo: "Are you calling me for something?"
"I asked auntie to cook for you, what do you want to eat?"
Shi Xingcan originally wanted to say "anything", but the words that came out of her mouth became "dumplings".
Qin Yanmo chuckled: "You're really obsessed with dumplings."
Shi Xingcan's heart jumped, and changed the topic: "Will you be back for dinner tonight?"
"Yes, we can settle the company's matters in the afternoon."
Since Shi Xingcan had already asked so, if she couldn't resolve the problem in the afternoon, she would come back tomorrow.
After hanging up the phone, Shi Xingcan held onto her beating heart, giving off an indescribable feeling.
This was the first time in her life that she felt warmth from home. She had to admit, this was a really good feeling.
While Aunt was cooking, Shi Xingcan took a look at Qu Biao.
Although he hadn't fully recovered yet, he was now able to get out of bed and walk around.
Qin Yanmo bought him a lot of children's toys, and he was using a crayon to write on the table.
Shi Xingcan knocked on the door, and asked while smiling: "Can I go in?"
"Come in." Qu Biao thought of it as a nurse who had come to check her body, and said loudly.
Shi Xingcan walked into the room and quietly went behind Qu Biao, and asked: "What are you doing?"
When Qu Biao turned his head and realized it was Shi Xingcan, he shouted happily on the spot, "Auntie Li!"
Shi Xingcan hugged him, and asked while smiling: "Do you miss me?"
Qu Biao nodded strongly: "I missed you so much! Uncle Qin also really misses you! "
Shi Xingcan placed him on his lap and asked: "How are you doing here in Uncle Qin?"
"Very good!" The smile on Qu Biao's face was sincere and pure, "He bought me a lot of toys."
Qu Biao got down from Shi Xingcan's body and sat at the table as he beckoned to Shi Xingcan: "Auntie Li, come over here!"
To him, a child's chair that was just right needed Shi Xingcan to sit on the ground to have a level view of the child.
Qu Biao picked up the picture book on the table and pointed at it: "This is me."
Shi Xingcan giggled, her originally round and petite face had been twisted into a polygon, her large eyes had turned into two squares, making her look extremely comical.
But she still kept quiet Qu Biao's head and praised: "You're awesome."
Qu Biao turned a page and pointed at the little person who was dressed in a pink skirt and had long pink hair. He could barely call his a woman.
The corner of Shi Xingcan's mouth twitched. Looking at his expression of "Hurry up and praise me", she said with a smile, "It's really pretty."
Qu Biao scratched his head in embarrassment, and spoke with abnormal sincerity yet stuttering: "That's because … You are very good-looking. "
This time, it was Shi Xingcan's turn to feel uncomfortable, she never thought that Qu Biao, who was only three and a half years old, would already know how to tease girls!
"Why am I pink?"
Qu Biao gestured with his hand, showing the shape of his long hair: "This hair looks good!"
The child relaxed all her strength and leaned against her body. Her soft body felt very comfortable to the touch.
Looking at his chubby face, Shi Xingcan felt a softness at the bottom of her heart. She asked softly: "Do you want a little brother or sister?"
Qu Biao blinked his eyes, suddenly he carefully placed his hand on her stomach, and asked with a serious face: "Is there a baby here?"
"Yeah, you're going to be a big brother soon." Shi Xingcan played with the curly hair on the top of his head, it was soft and comfortable.
Qu Biao carefully placed his head on her stomach, his thick black eyebrows slightly furrowed, his stern expression had a trace of Qin Yanmo's charm, "I will protect you and my brother!"
Shi Xingcan sniffed and wanted to cry again.
"Can you not tell this to Uncle Qin first?"
Qu Biao raised his head in confusion: "Why? Isn't that the baby of Uncle Qin? "
"It's the Uncle Qin's baby," Shi Xingcan said as she carried him in his arms and looked at the scenery in the distance with a slightly dazed expression. "But I wanted to personally tell him not to tell him about it before that."
Qu Biao tightly covered his mouth, his body that was originally crooked, immediately straightened and whispered, "I can't crush this little baby to pieces."
Shi Xingcan was amused by his actions, she poked his cheeks and said: "I can't tell Chiang either, this is our little secret."
Qu Biao nodded strongly, extended his pinky and used a low voice to say: "Little secret."
Shi Xingcan patted his head: "Be good."
She glanced at the clock on the wall. "What time do you usually eat?"
Qu Biao tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "After the room's song rings, it's time to eat lunch."
As soon as he said that, a burst of light music came from the room.
Then the door was pushed open, and a kindly looking grandmother appeared at the door, carrying two servings of food. "Young master, young mistress, it's time for lunch."
