Xu Qing looked at the few pieces of withered grass on the ground and fiddled with them for a while. She braided two rings and put one of them on Qiao Yanhui’s ring finger. She said to herself, “In my hometown, when a man and a woman get married, they have to wear a ring, and the ring has to be worn on the ring finger of their left hand. Because this finger is the closest to their heart, when their fingers are connected, their hearts are connected. Only then will this couple always be together. A person will meet many people in their life. They come and go every day. They part ways, meet again, and part ways again. Parents will grow old, children will leave, and friends will leave. Only husband and wife will be the ones who stay together until the end.”
Qiao Yanhui looked at Xu Qing steadily and love surged in his heart. This silly woman had actually been feeling uneasy, right? But why did she say that it was her former hometown? Wasn’t this her home?
“Little Hui, actually, in my hometown, before men and women get married, men have to propose first. Only when women agree can they hold a wedding. Guess how they propose? Haha, men have to take a diamond ring the size of a pigeon egg and kneel on one knee…” Xu Qing had seen many people being proposed to in such a romantic manner in the past. At that time, she didn’t feel anything. However, now, she suddenly felt some anticipation and regret.
Qiao Yanhui’s eyes flickered and he slowly knelt down.
“You!” Xu Qing helped him up helplessly and leaned into his arms, feeling his beating heart. “I’m a little talkative today. Perhaps I’m too excited after what happened last night. I’m actually a little afraid that you will leave me…”
“Honey, I will always be with you.” Although he didn’t know what would happen in the future, he decided that since he was in love, he wouldn’t hesitate. Even if the children weren’t his, this woman was someone he had decided to live with forever.
“Little Hui… I actually hope that you can continue to be silly.” The more Xu Qing spoke, the heavier her eyelids became and she fell asleep. Actually, she had always known that this man would recover his memories sooner or later. It was just a matter of time. At that time, she felt that it wasn’t a problem since she only wanted to use this man’s identity for the children’s status. However, she was actually greedy for him now. After spending a few months with him, she had fallen for this man.
Qiao Yanhui’s heart ached when he saw the woman in his arms with tears in her eyes and her brows furrowed even when she was asleep. In his memory, this woman was strong-willed and could shoulder everything alone. She had never been afraid, but now, she revealed fear and worry.
“Little Qing, after I deal with everything in the future, I’ll live here in seclusion with you.” Qiao Yanhui kissed Xu Qing’s forehead gently. He looked at the rising sun with a deep gaze. He had to recover his memories quickly, or he wouldn’t be able to make any decisions now.
The next day, Xu Qing suddenly opened her eyes and met a pair of deep eyes.
Xu Qing avoided his gaze and turned her back to Qiao Yanhui. If she wasn’t mistaken, she would have been outside admiring the moon last night, right? Later on, because Qiao Yanhui came out, she couldn’t help but cry and fell asleep.
Xu Qing felt bitter. She had actually fallen asleep in front of an innocent fool. This was too embarrassing.
“Little Hui, you’re awake?” Xu Qing coughed awkwardly, but she didn’t turn around.
“Honey, I saw you drooling just now.” Qiao Yanhui smiled.
“Nonsense!” Xu Qing stood up angrily and subconsciously touched the corner of her mouth. Of course, she didn’t touch anything. Then, she glared at Qiao Yanhui angrily and took out a disguise pill. “Eat it.”
Seeing Qiao Yanhui eat it obediently, Xu Qing touched her chin. She was wondering if she should make some more powerful pills. Otherwise, she was really afraid that she wouldn’t be able to resist his handsome looks.
Of course, Qiao Yanhui would eat it obediently. After all, he wanted to please Xu Qing because his memory was damaged and he couldn’t expose himself easily. If he attracted the enemy’s attention and implicated Xu Qing and her family, it would be troublesome.
Today, Xu Qing brought Qiao Yanhui to continue administering acupuncture to Wei Bo’an’s wife, Lu Baisha. Lu Baisha was very satisfied with this treatment method. After all, she could finally have a change after taking bitter medicine for many years.
After the acupuncture, Xu Qing changed back into her female clothes and brought Qiao Yanhui to the Yin family. This time, no one could stop Xu Qing. Last time, because the second aunt stopped Xu Qing, she was punished by Lei Wangshu, the young madam. The entire Yin family saw it clearly. After all, this second aunt was the most favored mistress of the father of the Yin family’s young master.
