After washing Bi Xiaoyuan, Bi Xia lazily leaned on the sofa, finding a movie for Bi Xiaoyuan called "Big Hero 6," which seemed quite popular lately.
Bi Xiaoyuan obediently sat on the sofa, wide-eyed watching the movie. Bi Xia leaned against Bi Xiaoyuan, who initially stiffened, then sat up straighter, afraid Bi Xia might be uncomfortable. Read complete versıon only at novel·fiɾe·net
Because they were at Bi Xia’s house, along with Xia Shi and Bi Xiaoyuan, Qin Zhan didn’t get too cozy with Bi Xia; instead, he went into the kitchen to help Xia Shi.
Seeing Qin Zhan enter the kitchen, Xia Shi was startled at first and quickly pushed Qin Zhan back out, "Quickly, get out, get out. How can you come into the kitchen?"
Qin Zhan chuckled lightly, "It’s okay, Auntie. I also cook at home; Little Nine has eaten it before."
Xia Shi looked at Qin Zhan in disbelief, "Really?"
"Really," Qin Zhan said, "because my mother told me since I was young that as a man, you must treat your wife well, never cheat, and remain loyal. You can only be good to one woman in your life."
Hearing Qin Zhan’s words, Xia Shi paused and smiled, "Your mother is right, but very few men can do that."
"My mother had a difficult delivery when she gave birth to me. After I was born, her health was always poor," Qin Zhan said slowly. "And my father cheated while my mother was convalescing, creating chaos at home. My mother then returned to Country A, and I went with her."
"My mother once told me, ’Qin Zhan, if you fall in love with a girl, you must love her wholeheartedly. Even more so after she becomes your wife.’
’Every wife risks her life to give birth to the child between her and her husband, so you must treat your future wife well.’
"That’s right..." Xia Shi chuckled, lowering her head, "That’s why they say children are a piece of a mother’s flesh..."
Qin Zhan slightly bent his body, cutting the half-prepared vegetables on the cutting board in proportion, saying, "Watching my mother, I told myself that I must treat my future wife well, never let her end up like my mother... I will pamper her, cherish her, and give her everything she wants."
Xia Shi was moved by Qin Zhan’s words and said, "A Zhan, you are a good kid. Auntie believes in you. Our Xiaxia, she’s had it tough..."
With a sigh, Xia Shi continued, "In any case, seeing Xiaxia become who she is today, I can die without regret. From now on, Xiaxia is entrusted to you. You must treat her well, understood?"
Qin Zhan paused his actions, straightened up, and looked seriously at Xia Shi, "Auntie, don’t worry."
"Good kid..." Xia Shi nodded, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes. Realizing Qin Zhan was indeed cutting the vegetables properly, she felt truly assured.
Looking at Qin Zhan again, handsome, well-built, tall, knowing how to cook, understanding how to cherish his wife, and capable, Xia Shi grew more satisfied. He was just perfect for their son-in-law!
Smiling, Xia Shi took the knife from Qin Zhan’s hand, pushed him out of the kitchen, and said, "Alright, you go spend time with Xiaxia and the others. Leave the kitchen to me."
Qin Zhan was stunned, his usually stern face showing rare excitement, "Thank you... Mom!"
"Okay!" Xia Shi laughed, "Alright, be good. Today, Mom will make delicious food for you all."
Watching Xia Shi enter the kitchen, Qin Zhan turned around and bumped into Bi Xia’s sparkling eyes. Bi Xia crossed her arms, "Oh, calling her Mom already?"
With a slight curl of his lips and joy in his phoenix eyes, Qin Zhan said leisurely, "You can be careless with many things, but never with your wife."
"Mom told me to take good care of you. She has great foresight, so..." Qin Zhan bent down slightly, looking at Bi Xia, "Little Nine, you are destined to be mine."
Meanwhile, in the kitchen, as Xia Shi’s cutting slowed, she blinked in confusion. Why did something feel off?
