Chu Molin didn’t realize how hard he was gripping.
Qin Xue cried out in pain, “Chu Molin, be gentle, you’re hurting me.”
Upon hearing Qin Xue’s cry of pain, Chu Molin quickly let go, noticing he had gripped her pale hand so tightly it had turned red.
“Xue’er, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to.” Chu Molin tenderly caressed her reddened hand, remorseful for his negligence.
“It’s okay, you didn’t do it on purpose…” Qin Xue glanced at her reddened hand impassively. It was just a squeeze; it was nothing serious.
Witnessing Qin Xue’s nonchalant attitude, Chu Molin felt even more regret. Any other girl would have burst into tears; it was like she just didn’t care.
“I’m fine, it just hurt a bit when you were squeezing my hand. It doesn’t hurt anymore after you let go.” After saying that, Qin Xue picked up a piece of chicken and put it into Chu Molin’s mouth.
With a mouth full of chicken, Chu Molin didn’t continue with the matter.
Seriously concentrating on his food, Chu Molin was watched attentively by Qin Xue, who propped her chin on her crossed hands.
How unfair it was! This man was not only handsome but also seemed so appealing when he was just eating.
Chu Molin was eating his food voraciously, his movements swift yet elegant, a clear indication of his excellent upbringing.
Ordinary people wouldn’t have such manners. Qin Xue could infer that Chu Molin came from an extraordinary background, yet she wouldn’t pressure him to reveal it.
She would wait until he was ready to talk about it. After all, she had already made up her mind about him. If he ever wanted to go back, she’d accompany him.
Chu Molin felt no anxiety with Qin Xue staring at him while eating. He kept eating at his usual pace and after he finished his meal, Qin Xue poured him half a bowl of soup.
Once Chu Molin finished the soup, he tidied up the dishes without letting Qin Xue lift a finger.
“Xue’er, do you want to go for a walk?” Having washed the dishes, Chu Molin noticed Qin Xue still sitting there in the same position.
“Sure, going for a walk should help with digestion.” Qin Xue stood up and stretched her body.
“Alright, let’s go, wife.” He reached out and took his little wife’s hand.
“Let’s go babies, let’s go for a walk with daddy and mommy.” Qin Xue walked alongside Chu Molin’s steps, gently rubbing her stomach.
“Yes, babies, let’s go for a walk with daddy and mommy.” Chu Molin wrapped one arm around his wife’s waist and gently touched her swollen belly with his other hand.
Once outside, he switched from hugging his wife’s waist to holding her little hand as they slowly descended the stairs.
People have already seen the couple’s loving interactions the previous night.
So tonight, when they saw the couple taking a walk, although they were curious, they didn’t crowd around them. They just watched from a distance, whispering among themselves.
Neither Chu Molin nor Qin Xue minded though. Qin Xue, being from the future, was used to it, and Chu Molin simply cared more about his wife. As long as they were not saying anything, they were not bothered either.
As the couple strolled leisurely, more and more people began to walk around them.
“Chu Molin, what was the deal with that woman this afternoon?” Qin Xue brought up the topic of Su Yun, who had come looking for Chu Molin in the afternoon.
“Xue’er, I swear there’s nothing between us, I don’t even know her. If she hadn’t mentioned she was the granddaughter of the old director, who would have known she was such a lunatic.” As Chu Molin remembered it, he became annoyed. It was her fault his wife nearly got angry with him.
Thinking about this afternoon when Qin Xue ignored him, he wished he could give that woman a good beating. Fortunately, his wife didn’t stay mad for long and even let him sip some soup, making up for his earlier shortcomings.
If she dares to provoke him again, he will not show mercy, regardless of her gender. He vowed not to let anyone who upset his wife get away with it..
