My Youth Began With Him

Gao Ran thought he had heard it wrong.

“Your son said he wants to stay here for the night.” Qin Chu repeated for Gao Ran ruthlessly.

“Why?” Gao Ran looked hurt.

“Do you have to ask? Even now you still don’t understand your son’s heart. I think your life was wasted.” Zhu Lingling stood up and couldn’t help commenting.

“I, I, I…” Gao Ran was at a loss for words.

At this moment, Little Bean glanced at Gao Ran and said, “Uncle Gao Ran, let Boyuan stay. You and Aunt Lingling go home tonight and my Daddy will send Boyuan home. Don’t worry.”

“Well done, son. Someone even speaks for you.” Gao Ran was exasperated.

“Honey, let’s go home.”

Gao Ran glanced at Zhu Lingling.

“No, I won’t go with you.”

“Our son is staying here for his future wife. What’s your reason? It’s not right for a mother-in-law to impose on her daughter-in-law.” Gao Ran chuckled.

“Get out of here.”

“Okay, Ms. Zhu Lingling. The fight is over; now you must go home… Don’t disturb the harmony in my family.”

Huo Mian pushed Zhu Lingling toward the door.

“Hey, Mian, you’re mean to me. You can’t let me stay here for only one night?”

“I want you to stay, but I’m afraid someone will collapse.” Huo Mian glanced at Gao Ran.

“Let’s go, Hon. Stop it…”

Too shy to butter up his wife in front of others, Gao Ran took Zhu Lingling’s hand and walked out with her…

“Boyuan, you really don’t want to go home with us?” Zhu Lingling glanced at their son before walking out.

“Goodbye, mom.” Without raising his head, Gao Boyuan waved at her direction, making everyone laugh.

Zhu Lingling: “…”

The couple ended their fight within one day.

After they left, Qin Chu and Huo Mian went to their bedroom while the kids played downstairs.

“Are you tired? I’ll get you some hot water to soak your feet in.”

“Great. Thank you, Hon.”

Huo Mian felt she got more and more lazy as her pregnancy came to the late stage.

With most of the house chores done by housemaids, she didn’t want them to help her with this intimate chore. But Qin Chu always offered to do it for her.

Qin Chu helped her to sit on the bed; she was clumsy, feeling her belly was dozens of pounds weighing her down.

Cautiously, Qin Chu pulled off her pure white cotton socks.

He flicked on the back of her foot gently.

“They look swollen. Are you in pain?”

“It’s a typical sign in the late stage of pregnancy… It’s no big deal and I don’t feel any pain. It was like this when I was pregnant with Pudding and Little Bean.”

Huo Mian said the words without thinking and she regretted them immediately.

She was conscious that Qin Chu had missed that period with her.

“I’m sorry, Hon…”

“Don’t say sorry, silly… I know what you’re thinking. Don’t worry, I no longer blame myself because I’m making up to my lost time.”

Qin Chu put the socks aside carefully and went to the bathroom to get hot water.

Huo Mian hummed as she sat on the bed, feeling this was the happiest moment in her life.

Suddenly, a beep came from WeChat.

Huo Mian picked up her cellphone and glanced at it.
