When he returned home, Lin Manrou saw that Ye Qingming was still in the study room. He still had the same posture and expression. However, the books in front of her kept changing, and their languages kept changing again and again.

"Aren't you tired?" she asked softly, placing her coffee cup at his hand.

Ye Qingming suddenly raised his head from his book sea and looked at her with a smile. Finally, he put down his pen and tiredly said, "I'm tired, but there's nothing I can do. There's an important operation tomorrow."

Lin Manshou smiled, "Any surgery is very important to you right?"

Ye Qingming was stunned for a moment. If he hadn't thought about it, then anyone who heard this sentence would have thought that his wife was thinking about what her husband had just said. However, these words were not what Lin Qingrou had said. At the very least, it was not what she had said to Ye Qingming.

The two of them looked at each other awkwardly, and before they could do anything else, Lin Qingrou got up and left the study.

Ye Qingming turned around and faced the computer again. Although he was still listening to the surgery video on the computer screen, his thoughts had drifted far away.

The voice from the video startled him. It was followed by the sound of several instruments used in orthopaedic surgery.

Ye Qingming stood up and turned off the stereo. For a moment, the room was quiet. He remembered that Lin Qingrou did not like hearing these sounds, so whenever she was at home, he would try his best not to look at her or just turn silent.

Lin Qingrou carried a pile of dirty clothes to the bathroom. Coincidentally, Ye Qingming was washing his hands, so the two of them bumped into each other. First they smiled, then Lin Qingrou moved to give him a spot. Unexpectedly, Ye Qingming easily took it from her hand and threw it into the washing machine.

"No, it can't be washed together."

Lin Qingrou suddenly called out to him.

"What?" Ye Qingming looked back and quickly turned on the washing machine.

Lin indicated for him to stand with her in front of the washing machine. She pointed at him and said, "Some of the darker clothes cannot be washed with lighter colors. Did you forget the last time I was away, when you washed the white shirts into blue shirts?"

Only then did Ye Qingming remember. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Really? I forgot about it."

Lin Qingrou couldn't help but laugh. "I guess a young master like you is really like 'ten fingers won't touch the Yang Spring Water', right?"

When Ye Qingming saw that she was making fun of him, he wasn't annoyed. Instead, he just quietly accompanied her, listening to her constantly talking about the things she needed to pay attention to when washing clothes.

Finally, Lin Qingrou stood in front of the washing machine and asked, "Did you remember that?"

Ye Qingming came back to his senses and nodded, as if he was a serious student, and said to her: "I don't think the next time you're not at home, there will be no blue shirt incident."

Lin Qingrou nodded, seemingly quite satisfied with her 'teaching achievements'.

The laundry room was not big, and after putting in some junk, it was even a little crowded. The two of them were huddled together, and now that they had stopped talking, the space between them was even smaller and narrower.

In this space, Lin Qingrou felt a little uneasy. She did not know if it was because the air conditioner was too hot or because she was wearing too many clothes. She only felt her face turn red and her hair turn hot, making her feel uncomfortable.

Washing the washing machine dry, water, washing, in the dry, the sound is especially prominent.

In the end, Ye Qingming spoke first, "It's not comfortable staying here. Let's go out."

Lin Qingrou smiled secretly and followed him back to the living room without a word.

The two of them suddenly came into contact with the air in the large living room. They couldn't help but take a deep breath, and finally managed to release the suffocating breath from their lungs.

After the silence, Lin Qingrou looked at Ye Qingming's red eyes. Ye Qingming looked at Lin Qingrou's flushed cheeks and couldn't help smiling at each other.

"I'll go wash my face."

After saying that, Lin Qingrou ran to the bathroom and turned on the tap. She turned on the cold water and quickly washed up.

The alternating between hot and cold seemed to have made him feel much more comfortable. After washing her face, Lin Qingrou carefully wiped her face clean with a towel. Just as she was about to wipe her face, she caught a glimpse of Ye Qingming standing at the door.

"You standing there again gave me a fright."

"I stand here every time, but sometimes you can't see it."

"What, you want to learn two more moves from watching me put on makeup? Stealing a teacher requires you to pay tuition fees, and I haven't even paid for the tuition fees yet. "

Ye Qingming silently walked behind her and looked at her, slowly wrapping his arms around her. For some unknown reason, Lin Qingrou didn't seem to resist, allowing him to hold her quietly.

Ye Qingming looked in the mirror and saw her drawing her eyebrows. He teased her, "It's rare that you didn't make a decision on me this time. So it's because your eyebrows are more important than me."

"Of course, a woman's appearance is more important than anything else. Besides, don't you think it's funny that you and Eyebrow are jealous?"

Ye Qingming smiled and said, "Women always look out for themselves. It's hard to keep me from thinking too much about it if you pay so much attention."

Lin Qingrou looked at him in the mirror, examining every mark on his face. He didn't know how many of these marks existed because of him.

After a long while, Ye Qingming finally said in a low voice, "Have you seen enough?"

Lin Qingrou snapped out of her daze. Weiwei nodded and placed her eyebrow pencil to the side, trying to struggle free from his arm. Who knew that Ye Qingming would hold her tighter and tighter and never think of letting her go.

"Ye Qingming, are you Kola? But I'm not a eucalyptus tree!" Lin Manmei protested.

Ye Qingming let out a laugh and finally let go.

"You even know how to joke. How rare."

He almost looked like he was about to burst into laughter. He looked at Lin Qingrou in disbelief, as if he had just discovered a new continent. Lin Manshou pouted and said unhappily, "Why? It's not like I haven't said anything." Do you have to be so weird? "

Ye Qingming quickly shook his head, "I just thought it was very interesting. After all, when you say these words, it's different from before …" "Some of them are cute."

This was the first time she had ever heard him describe her as' cute '. She was somewhat surprised, but she also didn't know whether to laugh or to cry.

Just as she finished speaking, Lin Qingrou walked back into the bedroom. Ye Qingming followed closely behind and suddenly hugged her.

Sure enough, this time Lin Qingrou subconsciously tried to break free.

Ye Qingming was unwilling to let this go. It seemed that he had already admitted defeat to the entire world, regardless of the past or the reason.

"Manchu, can we have another child?"

Lin Qingrou stopped struggling as she listened to Ye Qingming's pleas for mercy.

She said firmly, "Child? Why... I, I don't like children. "

Ye Qingming's body stiffened. Lin Qingrou could clearly feel the changes in his body.

"Why?" He asked reluctantly.

Lin Qingrou regained her composure, "Nothing, I just don't like it, so I don't want it."

He still wanted to persuade her, "You don't like it? Children won't keep you from working, and I can afford all the expenses in the family, including yours. You don't need to be stressed. "

"I said I don't like them, or even hate them. They will become a burden to me." Lin Qingrou cut straight to the point, her tone getting colder and colder.

Ye Qingming seemed to sense her change and finally let her go, standing facing him.

He still could not believe it, "A burden? But the last time I was pregnant, I never saw you like this. "

Lin Qingrou smiled bitterly, "The last time I had a child was an accident, and it was also an accident that the child was gone. I have no say in everything, what else can I do?"

Ye Qingming wanted to say something but hesitated. Finally, he said, "So, are you prepared to never have children?"

Forever? Lin Qingrou thought, when had she and Ye Qingming ever been together forever? It was just a mirage.

Still, she had to say, "I don't know. Maybe later, maybe."

"In the future?" "Maybe?" Ye Qingming found it laughable.

And when, and maybe what.

At this moment, a burst of phone calls brought Ye Qingming back to reality.

"Alright, I will be there shortly... I understand. See you later. "

Finishing his words, Ye Qingming put on his coat and left the house without a second look at Lin Qingrou.

As Lin Qingrou watched Ye Qingming leave, the blood in her body gradually turned cold. She wrapped her arms around herself, trying to find comfort in her body. But after a long time, it still didn't help.

The air was warm, but her body was cold.

They weren't suitable after all.

The computer screen in the study went dark, and with a sudden flash, the room was suddenly enveloped in darkness.

The pitch black night gradually shrouded the entire room. Even when Ye Qingming returned home, there was no light. At that time, he was drunk, almost unconscious. It was Ye Qingcheng's driver who helped him up.

Lin Qingrou looked at Ye Qingming who had collapsed on the bed. Due to frequent surgery, he had almost never drunk a single drop of alcohol. She had never seen him look so decadent and drunk, so she could only sigh. As the night wore on, she busied herself with changing his clothes for the night. It was midnight by the time she wiped him again.

Ye Qingming frowned deeply as he muttered some incomprehensible drunk words from time to time.

Lin Qingrou packed up and laid down. Ye Qingming did not know if he was drunk or not, but he felt something. He rolled over and suddenly, he held Lin Qingrou tightly in his arms.

Lin Qingrou touched his wrist, wanting to pull it away, but she was unable to do so.

"I'm sorry …" Ye Qingming vaguely spat out two words.

Lin Qingrou stared fixedly at the moonlight through the gaps of the curtains in the dim night. Something touched her heart lightly.

It was as if in an instant, her heart had slowly turned soft.

Ye Qingming seemed to have something to say, but he couldn't understand it. Lin Qingrou simply gave up, allowing him to hug her and sleep through the night.

When she woke up the next morning, there was nothing by her side. As she thought about it, she remembered that Ye Qingming had a very important operation today.

However, he had been so drunk last night that he wondered if today's operation would be affected.

Lin Qingrou couldn't help but to worry for him.

After a moment, she found herself laughable. Just because of last night's "I'm sorry", she was softhearted. Perhaps, this was not a good thing.

Lin Qingrou shook her head vigorously, attempting to throw that terrifying thought out of her mind. She couldn't help but think: If people could think like dry water in a washing machine, it would be great.

As she thought about it, she couldn't help but laugh and say to herself, "Childish."

As she spoke, she got up, washed her face and ate. She prepared to spend the last day of the weekend in peace.

In the afternoon, the sunshine shone more and more, finally filling the house with warmth.

Lin Qingrou sat on the sofa with the pillow in her arms, looking at the soup with the phone in her hand.

After a long while, as she was hesitating over which soup to cook, the sound of the door opening came from the entrance.

She was shocked, why did Ye Qingming come back so early today!

It seemed like Lin Qingrou had yet to recover from her argument with him from the day before. Thus, when the two of them met face to face, they both felt a little awkward.

She waved the phone in her hand. "Are you feeling better? I'm looking for some soup to rescue you. I don't know which one you like. "

However, she regretted it immediately after she finished speaking. She didn't do anything wrong, so why did she have to be nice to him?!

Ye Qingming was the same as her. He had yet to recover from the intricacies of the hospital and seemed to have forgotten about the incident where he apologized when he was drunk. He was still puzzled as to why Lin Qingrou had such a good temper.

He put down the key in his hand and looked at her carefully. Then he explained carefully, "I only had one operation today. Fortunately, I'm not that tired."

"Mm, that's good."

She sat down again and quietly looked at her phone as if nothing had happened.

Ye Qingming didn't know what to do. Instead, he fell into an awkward situation. However, after a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Yesterday, how did I come back?"

Lin Qingrou put down her phone and looked at him curiously. "You really don't remember anything?"

Ye Qingming had never had so much to drink before. He shook his head with an apologetic look.

"You were sent back by Big Brother's driver. Were you together last night?"

Ye Qingming then remembered and said, "Yes, my brother was looking for me last night, so he had a drink."

Ye Qingcheng and Ye Qingming were together, and they rarely brought up alcohol. As both of them were doctors, their drinking had an effect on doctors. But last night, it was obvious that both of them were drunk, which meant what Ye Qingcheng said to him was not a small matter.

What exactly did they talk about? Lin Qingrou suddenly became curious.

Ye Qingming looked at her thoughtful expression. After a moment of thought, he said, "When you went to look for Liu Yuxi yesterday, did you see Sisi?"

Lin Qingrou looked at him and knew that Ye Qingcheng had told him the same thing. Thus, she nodded her head, tacitly agreeing from the beginning to the end …

Ye Qingming sighed lightly and asked Lin Qingrou, "Because of what happened yesterday, you don't want children?"

Lin Qingrou didn't expect him to ask this question. He didn't want children, so how would he have anything to do with them?

"No, I didn't …" Before she could explain, Ye Qingming continued, "You said that you don't want children because you think they are too much of a burden. "I don't have any other intentions. I just want to know, do you think I will be like Big Brother and go find another woman after having a child, so you don't want a child?"

Lin Qingrou didn't know how to reply. After all, she couldn't say out the real reason for her actions, and asking Ye Qingming to "misunderstand" was not a bad idea either. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to think of a better way to explain this matter.

She put down the things in her hands and looked at him quietly, saying word by word, "To be honest, I can't explain this myself, but I know I don't want children right now. If you feel that having a child is responsible for the marriage, and not having a child is not responsible for the marriage, then I have nothing to say. "I hope you understand me. Can you let go of the child for now?"

Her tone was very light and slow, no longer having the tit for tat from yesterday. Correspondingly, Ye Qingming's attitude gradually eased up. He seemed to be trying hard to resist something, but after a while, he gave up and said to her, "Alright, since you said that, we should let this matter rest for now. However, I hope that you can understand my intentions. "

Lin Qingrou heaved a sigh of relief, smiling at him, "Alright, I understand."

After turning around, the two of them sat together. For once, there was no quarrel or anything else. They just quietly sat together reading and watching TV, doing what only an ordinary couple would do.

Lin Qingrou could not help but think, "Right and wrong are too many. If I can find some true warmth in this time that's going to disappear, then it should be now."

If it was possible, she hoped that it would take a little longer, even if it was an hour or a minute. After all, this was the only time between her and Ye Qingming.

Ye Qingming touched her forehead with his finger and looked at the soup in the pot. Lin Qingrou snapped out of her daze and turned to a smaller fire, afraid that the hot water would spill out.

Ye Qingming couldn't help but take the spoon when he saw that she was too distracted, afraid that she would burn him.

"What the hell? His eyes are red."

Lin Qingrou subconsciously rubbed her eyes, feeling a pang of pain.

"It's nothing. I just got spicy when I cut the onion."

Ye Qingming knew that she was distracted, so he smiled and said, "You were always behind me when I sliced onions, how could you be here?"

Lin Qingrou tried to change the topic, pouting, "The soup is almost ready, don't slip the signal."

Ye Qingming had no choice but to shake his head with a helpless smile and continue to brew his own wine.
