After 7 days of confinement, Chen Jingrong immediately returned to the military. But, she couldn't go to the hospital to cause trouble for Yao Anqi because she had promised her superiors. Otherwise, she would be kicked out of the military base.
Yao Anqi continued to work day after day. But, there were times when she would receive phone calls from Mo Zixi or messages from him.
Yao Anqi never returned his calls. Every time she did say a few words, she would end up hanging up because she had an emergency patient.
Because of this, Yao Anqi's assistant said to Yao Anqi, "Dr. Yao, aren't you being too cold towards Major Mo?"
"Am I?"
Yao Anqi's assistant quickly nodded, "You're super cold."
"That's just how I talk," Yao Anqi explained. "Even if you ask me to speak softly, I won't."
Yao Anqi's assistant nodded her head. It made sense. If the gentle Yao Anqi heard this, she would have thought she had seen a ghost. Actually, Yao Anqi had always been the gentle type. As long as she sat in her office without saying a word, she would look like a pretty daughter from a humble family.
"I'm just giving you a suggestion. After all, you and Major Mo are in that kind of relationship. Don't couples care about each other when they speak? You can be a little less formal. "
Although Yao Anqi did not respond, she took her assistant's words to heart.
Mo Zixi was gone for 7 days. Apart from phone calls, she didn't see him at all.
What kind of couple were they? However, Yao Anqi understood that Mo Zixi was a soldier.
That day, after work, Yao Anqi was about to return home to take care of the kids when she was stopped by Chen Jingrong, who was dressed in casual clothes, "I don't have a military rank right now. I'm just a normal woman. Why don't you talk to me for a bit?"
Yao Anqi didn't want to talk to Chen Jingrong, so she flagged down a taxi and headed home. But, Chen Jingrong grabbed onto the car door, "Even if you ignore me right now, we'll eventually talk things out. Why are you avoiding me? Perhaps, after talking to you, I'll let go. Who knows? "
"But, I don't want to waste time with you."
"You've already won. Zixi is already yours. Can't you sympathize with the weak?" Chen Jingrong held onto Yao Anqi's hand as her eyes turned red. "I have nothing now. My man, my youth, my feelings …"
After Yao Anqi heard this, she closed the car door and sat down with Chen Jingrong in the nearby rest area, "Tell me, what else do you want?"
"I know that you and Zixi have a child, but you don't want Zixi to be with you because of his responsibilities, right? I believe that Zixi still loves me. That's why I came looking for you. I can only beg you to return Zixi to me. If worst comes to worst, I'll raise your child for you. "
After hearing Chen Jingrong's words, Yao Anqi let out a laugh, "You should be asking Mo Zixi whether he still loves you, not me."
"Plus, I can't give him back to you just because you beg me. He's not an object that can be pushed around. Most importantly, he is the one that makes the decision."
"Plus, I can raise my own child. I don't need a stepmother. You're overthinking this."
"Lastly, you don't seem to understand why Mo Zixi cut off all ties with you. It wasn't because of me and Xingzhe, it was because of your lies."
"I'm sure you know how many lies you've told Mo Zixi over the past 4 years. Put yourself in his shoes. If someone lied to you the same way, how would you feel? Didn't you suspect Mo Zixi of being with me behind your back? "
At this moment, Chen Jingrong burst into tears …
"I didn't do it on purpose. I simply loved him too much."
"The only person you love the most is yourself."
"I've never forced Mo Zixi to leave at any time. A person's heart can't be forced, whether it's towards you or me!"
After speaking, the conversation came to an end. Yao Anqi understood that Chen Jingrong was upset, but there were some things that couldn't be changed. After all, the hurt that Chen Jingrong suffered in the past couldn't go back. Plus, this wasn't Mo Zixi's fault.
That night, while Yao Anqi was bathing little Xingzhe, he kept calling for his father. Perhaps, Mo Zixi knew that his son missed him, so he actually returned home. As soon as he arrived home, the first thing he did was pull Xingzhe into his arms and kiss him.
When Yao Anqi saw this, she couldn't help but ask, "Why do you look a little tanner?"
"Training is very important and I only have 8 hours before I have to leave at 5am tomorrow. So, I quickly came back to see Xingzhe … and you."
After Yao Anqi heard this, she said to Mo Zixi, "Chen Jingrong came looking for me again today and begged me to let you go."
"Staying by your mother and son's side is my own choice. It has nothing to do with you. There's no point in her looking for you."
"That's what I told her," Yao Anqi replied.
"Let's not talk about this. I'm hungry. Is there anything to eat?" Mo Zixi changed the subject. He didn't want to spend a few short hours talking about irrelevant people.
"Go back to bathing Xingzhe, I'll go make you some food," Yao Anqi said. "It'll be ready in a bit."
"OK," Mo Zixi nodded his head as he quickly placed his son back into the bathtub and carefully wiped him down.
Xingzhe was so excited that he almost danced in the bathtub after hearing that his father was home. So, Mo Zixi took this opportunity to wash himself clean. By the time he walked out of the bedroom, the father and son were both handsome.
"Give me my son. You go eat."
Go eat, "Yao Anqi said.
"I can hug my son and eat." Mo Zixi couldn't bear to let his son go. He never knew that having this little one would make him miss him so much. Every day, he couldn't wait to finish his training so he could video chat with Yao Anqi.
"He won't be comfortable!"
"No, I'll hug him."
Yao Anqi had no choice but to let him be.
Meanwhile, Mo Zixi couldn't hide the smile on his face as soon as he saw his wife and son.
The happiness he felt was hard to describe, but it came from the bottom of his heart …
"It's already 10pm. Xingzhe should get some rest."
"I'll hug him for a bit longer …"
"I'll let you look at him all you want tonight. Give him to me first," Yao Anqi said helplessly. Yao Anqi said helplessly, "Why don't you sleep in the master bedroom tonight? I think that way, you can see your son the entire night."
"What about you?"
"As long as you don't disturb my rest," Yao Anqi said as she lowered her head.
In other words, the two of them were sleeping together …? Was that what she meant?
Mo Zixi was afraid that he had misunderstood, so he asked, "Are you sleeping in the master bedroom too?"
