Chapter 1897: Chapter 1917: From the South, Tall Trees (Grand Finale)
Qiao Qiao stopped crying and held Qin Shaonan tightly, "I love you."
Qin Shaonan gently kissed her, "I’ll carry you."
After giving birth, Qiao Qiao got tired very quickly walking uphill, indeed she couldn’t walk anymore. She stood there, watching Qin Shaonan bend down, her arms draped over his shoulders, holding tightly.
Qin Shaonan’s large hands held her hips and carried her whole body on his back.
Qiao Qiao’s head rested on his back.
She never imagined that one day they could be together like this, openly and honestly.
It seems like after she married him, she never saw those people again.
She asked softly, "What about Qin Shaoling and the others?"
Qin Shaonan replied, "Grandpa sent them abroad."
Abroad again!
Qin Shaonan added, "They just left yesterday and won’t be coming back again."
Qiao Qiao listened and said nothing.
Grandpa suddenly did this because they must have done something again?
No matter what they did, it wasn’t important to her anymore!
What’s important is, she has him!
When they reached the cemetery, Qin Shaonan finally put Qiao Qiao down and held her hand, arriving in front of Grandma Qiao’s tombstone.
Qiao Qiao knelt on the ground, looking at the portrait of grandma on the tombstone, "Grandma, I’ve come to see you."
Qin Shaonan also knelt beside her, "Grandma, I will take good care of Qiao Qiao from now on, just like I promised you before you passed away."
Qiao Qiao looked at Qin Shaonan.
Did grandma really ask him to take care of her before she died?
Didn’t she tell grandma that they broke up?
Thinking back to that time, there were so many things separating them, yet he agreed to grandma!
Qin Shaonan squeezed Qiao Qiao’s hand tightly, "Grandma, in a while, we’ll bring Nini and Xiaobei to see you again."
Qiao Qiao, "..."
She didn’t say anything more, feeling warmth spreading through her heart.
...
Leaving the cemetery, Qin Shaonan took Qiao Qiao to the Medical University, then to the shooting range...
Every place they had been to in Hong Kong.
At night, they stayed at Yingang Hotel, in the room where they first became intimate.
...
The next day, as soon as Qiao Qiao woke up, she heard the voice of the female news anchor on TV.
With her eyes closed, she heard that Jiao Yang was arrested, and his father was being investigated for bribery.
Qin Shaonan looked at Qiao Qiao, "Awake?"
Qiao Qiao opened her eyes, looked at Qin Shaonan, got up, and snuggled into his arms, "Why did you save me that day?"
Qin Shaonan, "No reason."
Qiao Qiao still asked, "Why?"
Qin Shaonan, "No reason."
Qiao Qiao, "Why?"
Qin Shaonan looked deeply at Qiao Qiao, "Didn’t like seeing a girl chasing me being sullied by others."
Qiao Qiao, "..."
Qin Shaonan watched Qiao Qiao, held her hand, looked at the tattoo on her wrist, made a phone call, then said to her, "Let’s go."
He took Qiao Qiao to a tattoo shop.
Qiao Qiao, "..."
What was he going to do?
Was he planning to remove the tattoo from her arm?
Qin Shaonan looked at the tattoo artist, "Let’s start."
He lay down on the bed, took off his shirt.
Qiao Qiao stood aside, watching the tattoo artist ink four characters onto the area over his heart, "Southern Wood."
In that instant, a sweet bitterness crossed her heart.
If heaven gave her another chance, even knowing it would be this tough, she would still love him! Fall for this man as cold as ice.
