When Qin Yanmo came out of the bathroom, he saw Du Huanyi wrapped up in a ball on his bed.
He walked to the bed and lifted the quilt. He lowered his eyes and looked at the woman who had suppressed his blushing face and said, "Sleeping like this is not good for my body."
Du Huanyi looked at him with a wronged expression. She turned around and blankly stared at the music box in front of her. There was a ballet dancer standing on her tiptoes. Her expression was serene and contented, like a princess in a fairy tale who didn't know what was happening.
This was something that Qin Yanmo had bought for her in the afternoon. Du Huanyi never thought that Qin Yanmo would buy her such a girl's heart.
She asked Qin Yanmo why he wanted to buy this, but he didn't say anything.
Qin Yanmo lifted the quilt to lie beside her. His fingers slipped from the corner of her eyes to her face, his gaze filled with lustful affection.
Her skin, which was originally as tender as white porcelain, turned red.
Qin Yanmo sighed, even the best medicine would not be able to remove the swelling on his face?
Du Huanyi met his gaze without making a sound. His deep eyes were filled with tenderness.
"Yan Mo, when can I recover my memories?" She spoke softly.
She wanted to know everything that had happened. Why did Yang Qi use drugs? Who was trying to kill her?
"Jiang Jiafeng still has three days to go back home." Qin Yanmo gently caressed her face, and said with a faint apologetic tone, "I'll bring you to see him when the time comes."
"Is he very strong?"
"Yes, very powerful."
Du Huanyi was silent. Her fingers drew circles in his palm, causing the air to freeze.
In the end, it was Du Huanyi who couldn't hold it in anymore and asked, "Does father know my mother is like this now?"
Qin Yanmo shook his head, his expression somewhat hesitant.
Du Huanyi thought for a moment and came up with a bold idea.
Her heartbeat quickened and her ears rang out like a drum, "I... Is she Du Ming's biological daughter? "
Qin Yanmo's face changed, and laughed bitterly in the end: "You still noticed it."
Du Huanyi pursed her lips, and the tears that had welled up in her eyes once again started to well up.
"But he truly thinks of you as his daughter."
Du Huanyi sniffed with her nose and firmly smiled, "Speak, I'm listening."
Qin Yanmo smiled, this was his wife.
"Where do you want to start?"
"How did we meet?"
With that said, Qin Yanmo went silent, and started to consider whether or not he should speak the truth.
Seeming to have seen through his concerns, Du Huanyi encouraged him: "Go ahead, I'm listening."
Qin Yanmo took out his cigarette case and looked at her inquisitively. Du Huanyi shook his head to show that he didn't mind.
He was holding a cigarette in his bony fingers, and the smoke made the lines of his face look particularly sexy.
"My father was a pedophile." Ever since Shi Xingcan became pregnant, he started to reduce the amount of time he spent smoking by himself.
Du Huanyi's body trembled, she hugged Qin Yanmo's waist as though she was comforting him, and then recalled the question just now, 'How do we know each other?'.
"At that time, my father had his eyes on you. Your father, who is also known as Shi Jun, opened his eyes wide when he saw the money and 'sold' you to my family."
Du Huanyi closed her eyes in despair. It was exactly as she had expected. Her voice had already become a little teary as she asked, "Why do you still want me?"
Qin Yanmo laughed and used his free hand to pat her forehead, laughing: "No matter what you become, I will always want you. Furthermore, my father did not do anything to you."
Du Huanyi's stiff body relaxed a lot after hearing this sentence, and started to draw circles on Qin Yanmo's palm again.
Qin Yanmo allowed her to toy with his palms and recounted what happened in the past once again.
"Then I saved you and promised you that I would marry you in the future."
Du Huanyi's eyes were filled with worship as she expectantly asked, "When I grow up, did you come find me? And then we got married? "
Thinking about Xiao Baozi's age, she asked happily, "Did I give birth to a child when I was still in university? Oh my god! "How romantic!"
Qin Yanmo patted her head and laughed: "Yes, I did indeed go and find you, but I was deceived by your father and his wife."
Upon hearing his words, Du Huanyi's face immediately fell.
"The one I asked for at that time was Shi Xingcan, but he brought Shi Mengxi, your big sister, in front of me and said that it was Shi Xingcan."
Even if he thought about it now, Qin Yanmo still wasn't in a good mood.
"He asked me if I could send the photo to the media and announce the engagement. At that time, I agreed without thinking too much, and it was only the next day that I discovered that the person he handed over to me was Shi Mengxi, while you had already married Qu Zhong."
"Qu Zhong?"
"The son of your father's business partner. You dropped out of college to marry him." Qin Yanmo held her waist tightly, as if she would disappear in the next second by the wind.
"I love him so much?" Du Huanyi retorted, "You don't even read any books because you want to marry him?"
Although Du Huanyi did not have any memories, in her heart, university was still a very sacred place. From the moment An Nuo told her about it, she had been anticipating it ever since.
"You didn't love him. You were forced by your father, because only then would he pay for your mother's medical expenses."
Du Huanyi felt that her perception of the world had been attacked, so she asked, "Why did my father pay the medical fees for me and ask me to marry someone?"
Qin Yanmo could only start from the story of how Yang Qi was tricked by him when she was young and the various tribulations that Shi Xingcan had endured in the Qu Family. In the end, the two of them finally broke through and gave birth to Xiao Jiaozi.
Just when the two of them thought that they could finally reunite, a Su Qing suddenly appeared out of nowhere and kidnapped Yang Qi, causing him to lose her memories and becoming the current Du Huanyi.
However, he had concealed part of Xiao Baozi's secret. From Du Huanyi's reaction when hearing the story, she obviously hated all of the people of time home and time home. If she knew Xiao Baozi's true identity, she might show some disgust.
He had only told Du Huanyi that he had snuck in to see Shi Xingcan a few years ago. At that time, the two of them had fallen in love at first sight, and in the end, she had married Xiao Baozi into the Qu Family.
Du Huanyi was silent for a long time after hearing this, then asked, "Since we met once when we were pregnant with Xiao Baozi, why did you still make a mistake between my sister and me?"
Qin Yanmo was at a loss for words, but his reaction speed, which was faster than an ordinary person's, made him immediately think of an excuse, "You look extremely similar to your big sister, and at that time, Shi Mengxi had even put on extremely thick makeup.
Du Huanyi looked at Qin Yanmo suspiciously, "You also know how to make that kind of mistake?"
"I was too young."
Du Huanyi smiled and hugged his broad chest, saying, "You're not old anymore."
Qin Yanmo looked at her and said resentfully, "After you lost your memories, you said I was old."
Du Huanyi awkwardly coughed twice and asked, "Did I say that?"
Qin Yanmo hugged her while smiling and said gently: "Go to sleep, tomorrow is a new day."
Du Huanyi reclined comfortably on Qin Yanmo's arm, closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
The night was getting darker, and the bright moonlight shone through the large French windows into the room.
Qin Yanmo looked at the woman who had fallen asleep in his arms. Her even breathing could be heard, and her small nose slightly moved.
Even at night, Qin Yanmo's fair and exquisite skin was exceptionally conspicuous. He gently caressed her slightly red face, afraid that he would wake her up if he used too much strength.
As if she had felt his touch, Du Huanyi's hand came out from under the blanket and accurately grabbed onto Qin Yanmo's big hand.
Qin Yanmo's expression slightly changed as he tried to pull back her hand. Just as he was about to regain his freedom, Du Huanyi's delicate hands suddenly tightened, and he tightly held onto his big hand.
With a gentle smile on his lips, Qin Yanmo lightly propped himself up and imprinted a kiss on her face.
His voice came from the darkness, low and reassuring. "I will protect you forever."
The next day, Du Huanyi and Qin Yanmo rarely woke up at the same time.
Qin Yanmo gently caressed her brows and eyes, his voice softening: "Did I wake you up? Go to sleep. "
Du Huanyi struggled to get out of bed. With great difficulty, she said, "I want to get out of bed with you."
Qin Yanmo laughed, "I need to go to work, and you're fine."
Du Huanyi had already entered the bathroom. An indistinct voice came from the bathroom, "I can go back to sleep!"
Qin Yanmo smiled and let her do what she wanted.
When Qin Yanmo was already prepared to go out, Du Huanyi finally came out of the bathroom. She was wearing her pajamas with a warm nightgown wrapped around her.
"Be careful on the road. Don't be too tired at work." She raised her head and looked at Qin Yanmo. Her face without makeup was pure and clean, with a hint of cuteness in it.
"Shouldn't you say that you work hard?" Qin Yanmo laughed and ridiculed.
"You're the boss, so you don't have to be too tired." Du Huanyi replied matter-of-factly, "My dad often goes to class for two days before he takes another day off."
Qin Yanmo pinched her little face lovingly. "Got it, go back and sleep."
Du Huanyi chuckled twice, and only returned to the house after the car had turned the corner and disappeared from sight.
"Xingcan, why did you get up so early?" Bai Ronghua's gentle voice came from behind.
Du Huanyi turned around. Bai Ronghua, who was wearing a white fairy gown that was beautiful to the point of exploding, was walking toward her against the sunlight.
Amidst the golden shadows, every step she took was like a frozen frame, forcibly turning the beautiful and tranquil back garden into a T stage for Fashion Week.
His movements were filled with the elegance that was formed from the influence of a good environment over a long period of time. It was unparalleled.
Every time she stood with Bai Ronghua, Du Huanyi was always under a lot of pressure. She was clearly her husband's mother, but she was even more beautiful than her husband's wife, his ex-girlfriend, and even his husband's mistress.
Even if Du Huanyi knew that Qin Yanmo didn't have an ex-girlfriend or a mistress, they definitely wouldn't be prettier than Bai Ronghua.
"I'll get up to send Yan Mo to work." Du Huanyi replied with a smile, then asked, "Mom, why are you up so early as well?"
"I always get up so early." Bai Ronghua smiled gently without a hint of blame in his tone. "I don't have any other hobbies when I get old. I can only use all sorts of plants and flowers."
As she spoke, Du Huanyi noticed that there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead. There were traces of dirt on her snow-white skirt.
Du Huanyi could not help but feel somewhat ashamed, as if she was a daughter-in-law that was being bullied.
However, Bai Rong Hua didn't mind at all and held her hand, asking with concern: "Did you see Yang Qi yesterday?"
Du Huanyi nodded.
"How do you feel?"
"Mom is very well. She said that she will be back with me in a few months time to take care of the children."
"That's good." Bai Rong Hua patted his chest comfortingly, "Yesterday, when Yan Mo carried you back, I was shocked. I thought that something had happened to you, as long as you're alright."
Her words made Shi Xingcan's nose sour. She was good-looking, but also had a gentle personality.
