Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Fine. Everyone has his own ambition,” he said with a sigh.
Then, he invited Qin Xiaoyao to have a meal with him.
When he noticed that Qin Xiaoyao was somewhat reluctant, the Second Prince sent someone to invite Song Que as well.
Only then did Qin Xiaoyao agree to join him.
When they reached the front hall, Song Que was already waiting.
After the Second Prince inquired from the military doctor and found out that Song Que’s condition was not serious, Qin Xiaoyao felt more relieved.
During the meal, the Second Prince saw that Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes and heart were completely focused on Song Que, and soon, he lost all interest in eating.
In the end, the meal ended quickly and he arranged for someone to send the couple home.
After he surmised the couple had already left the government office, the
Second Prince stood by the window and said with a sigh, “It’s a pity that such a talent is lost…”
The guard at the side glanced at his master and didn’t say anything.
Meanwhile, Qin Xiaoyao brought Song Que home.
Everyone was overjoyed to see the couple return safely.
“It’s good that you’re back. It’s good that you’re back…” Madam Liu even held her eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law’s hands, laughing and crying at the same time.
“Gosh, Mother! It’s a joyous outcome that my husband and I have returned safely. Why are you still crying?
“Don’t cry anymore. If you continue to cry, our hearts will ache,” Qin Xiaoyao smiled and patted her mother-in-law’s back as she remonstrated petulantly.
“Mm-hmm! It’s a joyous outcome. Boo hoo… I won’t cry! I won’t cry!” Madam Liu immediately replied as she choked back her tears.
When she saw that Song Que wasn’t looking too well, Qin Xiaoyao turned to Song Yun and said, “Alright, it’s getting late. Yun’er, quickly help Mother back to her room. If there’s anything else, we can talk about it tomorrow.” “Mm-hmm!” Song Yun answered hurriedly.
“Mother, let’s go. Big Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law have been busy for the whole day. We should let them rest early,” she said to Madam Liu.
Madam Liu also noticed that Song Que’s complexion wasn’t too good and nodded.
After Madam Liu and Song Yun left, Song Ye and Wang Xiaomei also left.
“Sister Sanya! Brother-in-law…” Big Girl Li came forward and looked at the couple worriedly.
The reason the Song family got into trouble this time was primarily due to her and Daniu.
She had almost been tormented to death by guilt for one whole day and night.
Fortunately, Sister Sanya had found her husband. She could only hope that they were all fine.
Qin Xiaoyao simply gave Big Girl Li a glance before telling Liu Daniu to help her back to her room.
Following that, she also told her father to return to his room to rest as soon as possible.
Thereafter, she helped Song Que along and left.
It wasn’t that she was angry with Big Girl Li and her husband, but Song Que was still suffering from a cold, so how could she stand here and chit-chat with them?
Big Girl Li looked at the back profiles of the two people as they left, and tears suddenly poured down.
“Alright. Listen to Sister Sanya and go back to your room.
“Brother Song is not feeling well, and Sister Sanya has to take care of him. At this point, let’s not give her any more trouble.
“If there’s anything, we’ll talk about it tomorrow!” Liu Daniu said to his wife.
Big Girl Li looked at her husband as tears continued pouring down her face. Then she nodded and left with Liu Daniu.
As Qin Dazhuang watched his daughter and son-in-law walking off, he gave a sigh and returned to the room that the Song family had arranged for him.
Qin Xiaoyao helped Song Que back to their room and began to help him undress.
After settling Song Que down, she went to the kitchen to get some hot water and quickly helped Song Que to wipe his body.
Following that, she helped Song Que to bed.
“Hubby, have a good sleep. Tomorrow morning, I will go and ask Doctor Li to come here.”
“Your cold will get better soon.” Qin Xiaoyao leaned closer to Song Que and said in a gentle voice.
The moment Song Que’s head hit the pillow, his entire body became limp and feeble again.
When he heard Qin Xiaoyao’s affectionate words, he replied mildly, “Mm-hmm.”
Following that, he closed his eyes.
He had finally returned safely. It felt so good to be home…
Qin Xiaoyao heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Song Que had fallen asleep.
She walked out of the room quietly.
Ever since she left home yesterday, she had killed people and played with the meteor hammer, so her body did not smell good right now.
She had to take a hot bath before going to bed.
In the kitchen, Qin Xiaoyao boiled a huge pot of water.
After that, she went to the bathroom to take a bath.
When she returned to her room after her bath, Song Que was already sound asleep.
As she looked at Song Que’s peaceful sleeping face, Qin Xiaoyao’s heart was at peace.
She got into bed and lay down carefully. Then, she leaned against Song Que contentedly and closed her eyes.
In the latter half of the night, it began to snow. The whistling north wind gusted, and it was extremely cold.
In the couple’s room, the couple slept close to each other, but they felt very warm.
The next day.
When Song Que opened his eyes, he realized that Qin Xiaoyao was not awake yet.
When he woke up, he still had a headache, but it was much better than yesterday.
Knowing that his wife was exhausted from the happenings over past two days, Song Que did not move but turned his head to look at Qin Xiaoyao.
His wife seemed to be even more beautiful than before.
Those facial features had really grown increasingly more to his liking.
Now that the bandits were eliminated and Mountain Spring Town had regained its peace, he was also completely at ease.
He would just wait a little longer. When he had recovered from his cold, he would definitely ask his wife for a child.
His wife adored little Chunhua so much. When their child was born in the future, she would definitely adore their child even more.
As he thought of the possible scenarios, the corners of Song Que’s lips could not help curling up into a warm smile.
He looked like a flower blooming in March and was downright stunning.
When Qin Xiaoyao opened her eyes, this was the sight that greeted her. She almost fell into a daze.
However, she quickly regained her senses.
Then, she stretched out her hand and placed it on Song Que’s forehead.
She heaved a sigh of relief when she realized that Song Que was no longer running a fever.
“When did you wake up, Hubby? Why didn’t you wake me up?” As she spoke, Qin Xiaoyao inched closer and looked at Song Que.
The more she looked at him, the more she liked what she saw.
She couldn’t resist reaching out to touch his face.
She traced his eyebrows and caressed his face. Finally, she reached his lips.
Song Que didn’t even try to avoid her touch. He simply allowed Qin Xiaoyao to do as she pleased on his face.
“Do you like what you see?” Suddenly, the man’s lips moved and he asked with a smile.
Should he be grateful for his face, and that he was born in a form that could charm his wife’s heart?
“I like it,” Qin Xiaoyao answered happily.
“The baby we have in the future will definitely be good-looking!” Just the thought of it made her happy.
Song Que raised his eyebrows.
“When I have recovered from my cold…”
Before he could finish, Qin Xiaoyao had already kissed him, cutting off the rest of his words.
Then, she kissed Song Que until he almost suffocated before she let him go.
Song Que had not recovered from his cold and was panting heavily. He looked like a young wife being bullied as he looked at Qin Xiaoyao with an exasperated face.
“Aren’t you afraid of catching my cold as well?” he said somewhat angrily.
Qin Xiaoyao, on the other hand, was laughing heartily.
“Your wife is as strong as an ox. What is there to be afraid of?” she said proudly.
“However, seeing that you are not feeling well today, I’ll let you off this time. Next time, you’ll have to make up for it.” After saying that, Qin Xiaoyao turned over and got off the bed.
Song Que was left alone on the bed, cursing Qin Xiaoyao for acting like a hooligan in his heart.
After getting out of bed, Qin Xiaoyao quickly put on her clothes and went to the kitchen to wash up. She also got some water for Song Que to wash his face.
When she finally went out, she realize that it was already bright outside.
Madam Liu and the others were all up and waiting for them to have breakfast..
