Youyou ran happily towards Li Xiwvu.
“Momet
“Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, Mommy!”
Youyou shouted a few times.
Even though Li Xiwu was holding Yaoyao in her arms, Youyou was not afraid that she would not have a seat. After running to Li Xiwu, she opened her hands and hugged Yaoyao.
Li Xiwu freed one hand and pulled Youyou into her arms. With the two babies in her arms, nothing could be more satisfying than this moment. Her eyes were filled with gentleness as she reached out and rubbed Youyou’s chubby little face. “Did you miss Mommy?”
Youyou pouted. “l really miss Mom. Dad didn’t lie to me. He really brought Mom back. Youyou is so happy.”
“Mom misses you guys, too,” she said.
Seeing that the two little fellows’ eyes were filled with her, Li Xiwu felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. Even though they had only been apart for five days, she still felt a little guilty because she had not told the two little fellows in advance before she went to stay at the Li Mansion.
By the time the two little fellows could not find her, she had already moved to the Li Mansion.
Youyou felt that she was not close enough to her mother. She pushed her brother, who was smothered in her mother’s arms. She used very little strength. Yaoyao felt it and looked up at Youyou.
Youyou said, “Brother, Youyou can’t touch Mommy anymore. Move.”
Yaoyao silently moved to the side to make some space for Youyou. Youyou was so happy that her eyes curved into crescents. “Thank you, Brother m
Yaoyao pursed his lips and said in a much softer voice than Youyou, “You’re welcome.’
Li Xiwu felt relieved. Even after squatting for a long time, her legs did not feel sore. Pei Jingzhou came over and pulled Youyou and Yaoyao out to help her up. “If you continue squatting like this, your legs will go numb.”
Li Xiwu whispered, “It’s already numb.”
Pei Jingzhou was about to reach out. “I’ll carry you.”
“No need.” She quickly pushed Pei Jingzhou’s hand away. When she looked up, she saw her grandmother and Qiao Qiao secretly laughing.
Tonight’s dinner was especially sumptuous. There were many people too. It was lively and the atmosphere was good.
Qiao Qiao was the only outsider at the dining table. Fortunately, she was especially friendly. After eating, she almost couldn’t keep her mouth busy. She picked up some food and chatted with Guan Suling.
Guan Suling liked Qiao Qiao’s personality very much because Qiao Qiao’s current personality always reminded her of Li You in the past.
Shao Jingmo arrived even earlier than Jiang Lin had told Qiao Qiao. Qiao Qiao had thought that he would arrive in the middle of the night, but she received a call from Shao Jingmo at nine-oh-five.
At that moment, Qiao Qiao thought that Shao Jingmo was about to board the plane and was too busy munching on melon seeds to care about other things.
She quickly said, “l know you’re boarding. There’s still four more hours. Rest well on the plane. Call me when you get here.”
With that, she prepared to hang up.
Shao Jingmo’s cold voice came from the phone. “I’m at the airport.”
Qiao Qiao said, “l know.”
Shao Jingmo said, “I’m in the capital.”
Qiao Qiao said, “l know… what do you mean you’re in the capital?”
There was no sound on the other end of the line. After about seven or eight seconds, there was still no sound. Qiao Qiao took down her cell phone and looked at the screen. The call was maintained and the call was not hung up.
Qiao Qiao swallowed. “Um… did you just get here?”
She waited for another five or six seconds before she heard Shao Jingmo reply, “Yes.
Qiao (Xiao’s expression was almost twisted. It was tine if this Shao guy came early, but why did he come so early?! Not daring to let her mind wander for too long, she immediately asked, “Then where are you now?”
“The airport.”
“Did you call a cab?” she asked apprehensively.
Shao Jingmo’s tone was calm, and no emotions could be heard. “What do you think?”
Qiao Qiao asked casually, “You didn’t come alone this time, did you?”
Shao Jingmo still said, “What do you think?”
Qiao Qiao’s heart skipped a beat. “You didn’t even bring a bodyguard?” There was silence on the line again. Qiao Qiao realized that she was asking some inexplicable questions. Could it be that she could bully Shao Jingmo without his bodyguards?
Dream on.
After ending the call in a hurry, Qiao Qiao deliberated over her words and planned to bid Matriarch MO farewell. Before she could formulate her words, Guan Suling asked her, “Qiao, whose call made you frown so often?”
Qiao Qiao stammered, “It’s, it’s… an elder in the family.”
Guan Suling asked, “Your father or your mother?”
Qiao Qiao looked down and said in a much softer voice than before, “My… Little Uncle.’
Guan Suling didn’t know about Qiao Qiao’s situation. She guessed from the contents of the call when Qiao Qiao answered the phone just now, “Your Little Uncle is in the capital?”
Qiao Qiao nodded.
Guan Suling asked, “Just arrived?”
Qiao Qiao nodded again.
Guan Suling beckoned Dao Xi over. “Go make the arrangements. Prepare a car to go to the airport to fetch Qiao’er’s uncle.” Dao Xi nodded. “Yes.’
Qiao Qiao quickly stopped him. “No need!”
This voice was a little loud. Guan Suling was fine, she was used to it after this afternoon. Dao Xi was shocked again and turned to look at Qiao Qiao. “Miss Qiao?”
Qiao Qiao wanted to reject Matriarch Mo t s good intentions, but after hesitating for a few seconds, she gave up and pretended to be happy. “Then sorry to trouble you. I’ll go with you. My uncle is more vigilant. He might not believe me on the phone, so I have to go with him.”
Guan Suling nodded. “That’s fine. Then go with Dao Xi and come back early.” Qiao Qiao agreea. ” yes.”
Dao Xi gestured for her to come in. “This way, Miss Qiao.”
Qiao Qiao nodded and walked in the direction Dao Xi had pointed.
In the car.
Dao Xi sat in the front passenger seat. The chauffeur was about to drive when
Dao Xi turned to ask Qiao Qiao, “Miss Qiao, which terminal is your uncle in?”
Qiao Qiao forgot to ask and quickly picked up her phone. “Let me ask.”
Dao Xi said, “Okay.”
She sent Shao Jingmo a WeChat message and waited anxiously for his reply. Fortunately, she did not wait long before Shao Jingmo replied: Terminal Three.
Qiao Qiao immediately looked up and said to Dao Xi, “Terminal three.” Dao Xi nodded and gestured for the chauffeur to drive.
Li Xiwu came out to look for Qiao Qiao. She learned from her grandmother that Qiao Qiao had gone out to pick up her Little Uncle.
Li Xiwu looked at the time. “He’s here?”
Guan Suling asked, “You knew her Little Uncle was coming tonight?”
Li Xiwu nodded. “I heard Qiao Qiao mention it today.”
She didn’t say much. That was Qiao Qiao!s private matter. Guan Suling didn’t ask further. She stood up and said, “Yaoyao and Youyou will sleep with me tonight. I’ll go pick them up.”
Li Xiwu probably felt that Yaoyao and Youyou would not go to her grandmother’s side obediently. Unexpectedly, she thought too much. Yaoyao and Youyou obediently followed their grandmother.
The two little guys waved at her and said, “Good night, Mom.”
Li Xiwu leaned against the door frame and waved her hand. She watched the backs of the two children get further and further away, her eyes filled with satisfaction.
Pei Jingzhou walked over from behind her. “When are you going to sleep?”
Li Xiwu leaned against the door frame without moving. “I’m waiting for Qiao Qiao to come back.”
“She’s not alone. There’s no need to wait for her.” Pei Jingzhou’s arm came around her waist in a restraining posture.
Li Xiwu looked down at the hand on her waist and said deliberately, “Go to sleep if you want.”
Pei Jingzhou slowly tightened his arms and said naturally, “I’m afraid of sleeping alone. I need my wife to accompany me..”
