I looked at Duanmu Que and nodded. "That's right, I guessed it was her. But there's one thing I don't understand. How could she have guessed that I would come to you at that time?"
"Silly wife, don't you understand? Yu Xin arranged for Michelle to get close to me. She didn't want you to see what was going on between us. She arranged for Michelle to take some indecent photos of us and then use them to drive a wedge between you and me. You just showed up at the wrong time and exposed her, silly wife." Duanmu Que gently pinched my nose.
I thought about it carefully. Duanmu Que was right. I wrapped my arms around Duanmu Que's neck. "So, what should we do next?"
"Let's wait and see." Duanmu Que then carried me in his arms and walked to the bedroom.
"What are you doing?" I was afraid that he would drop me, so I could only hug his neck tightly.
Duanmu Que looked at me with a lewd smile. "I'm tired. Lie down with me for a while longer."
"Stop fooling around. Look at the time. Let's pack up and go home. Mom and Dad are waiting for us."
Duanmu Que didn't pay attention to me. He put me on the bed and quickly stripped me again. I looked at him helplessly, but it was no use. Duanmu Que looked at me and said, "It's rare for the two of you to spend time together. You have to cherish it. Just now, you said that you wanted to give me a baby. You have to work harder, right? You have to cherish your precious time."
I couldn't help it. I was completely defeated by Duanmu Que's logic. Looking into his gentle eyes, I had no choice but to agree. I lay under him and felt his gentleness. Because I loved him, I could feel that everything he brought to me was beautiful. At this moment, I only had one thought: I wanted to be with him forever.
Perhaps it was because we had been tossing and turning for too long, Duanmu Que fell asleep in my arms after he finished venting. I also fell asleep while hugging him. When we woke up, it was already evening. We packed our luggage and headed back to Duanmu's house. Xiao Fengya had already prepared a table full of sumptuous dishes for us.
After everyone was seated, Xiao Fengya served me a bowl of pig trotter soup. "Xiao Li, welcome home," she said. "You've just recovered and your body is still weak. I asked the chef to make this for you.
"Thank you, Mom." I took the bowl Xiao Fengya handed to me, tasted it and said, "Mom, this is delicious."
"As long as it tastes good." Xiao Fengya looked at me and smiled.
Duanmu Que looked at me and then at the soup I was drinking. He held the bowl in front of Xiao Fengya and pretended to act cute. "Mom, I want some too," he said.
Duanmu Tachio reached out and patted Duanmu Que's hand. "Do it yourself. You're an adult." Looking at Duanmu Que's aggrieved expression, I couldn't help but laugh.
Duanmu Que pursed his lips and said unhappily, "It's so unfair. I'm obviously the biological one. This isn't fair. I want to protest!" He raised his hand as if he was really going to protest.
I pulled back Duanmu Que's outstretched hand. "Protest overruled. Hurry up and eat." I reached out and picked up Duanmu Que's bowl and served him a bowl of soup.
Duanmu Que looked at Xiao Fengya and Duanmu Tachio with an arrogant expression. "See? My wife cares about me." Looking at Duanmu Que's silly expression, Duanmu Tachio and Xiao Fengya both laughed. Everyone at the table was talking and laughing. Only Yu Xin sat there and ate.
When everyone was almost done eating, Duanmu Tachio and Xiao Fengya looked at each other. They took out a bank card from their pockets and put it in front of me.
I looked at the bank card and then at Duanmu Tachio. "Dad, what's this for?"
"Xiao Li, don't think too much. Ever since you got pregnant, so many things have happened. Your mother and I feel sorry for you. We feel that we didn't take good care of you. This is a small token of our appreciation. Just accept it. If you like something, just buy it. Don't be stingy."
After listening to Duanmu Tachio's words, I looked at Duanmu Que. At this moment, Yu Xin suddenly stood up. "I'm done eating. I have something to do. I'll take my leave first." Then she went upstairs. Obviously, she wasn't happy.
I looked at Duanmu Tachio and said, "Dad, I can't accept this. We don't lack money. You and Mom should use this money to buy something." I pushed the card back to Duanmu Tachio.
Duanmu Que put the card in his pocket and said to Duanmu Tachio and Xiao Fengya, "Thank you, Dad. Thank you, Mom. I'll accept it on behalf of Xiao Li. We'll take our leave now." Before I could finish, Duanmu Que dragged me back to the room.
After entering the room, he put the card in my bag and lay down on the bed. I looked at his lazy appearance and said, "Why do you want Dad's money? It's not like we don't have it."
"Ah, since it's for you, just accept it." Duanmu Que rolled over and lay on the bed.
"What's going on?" I sat down next to him and looked at him.
"Actually, it's nothing. Didn't you go back home after you were discharged? My parents felt that they had wronged you. My mother cried almost every day and kept saying that it was because of her negligence that you were injured again and again. Later, I told them that you would come back when you recovered. They were very happy. You can just treat it as a gift from them."
"That's not very good." I was still a bit worried.
"What's not good about it? Just listen to me. If you don't accept it, they'll really feel bad about it." Duanmu Que rolled over and lay down on my lap.
At that moment, Xiao Fengya's voice came from outside the door. "Xinxin, it's so late. Why are you still going out?" It sounded like she wanted to go out.
"Auntie, I'm not going out. There's someone at the door looking for me. I'll go take a look and then come back." I heard Yu Xin's voice.
"Okay. Come back soon." Then, there was the sound of footsteps.
Hearing the footsteps, Duanmu Que rolled over and jumped off the bed. He ran to the window and hid behind the curtains. He gently lifted the curtains a bit. I followed him to the window. Through the gap in the curtains, I saw Yu Xin jogging toward the door.
Duanmu Que looked at me and said, "Wife, do you want to see who she's meeting with and what they're talking about?" I looked at him and nodded.
Duanmu Que moved his face closer. I looked at him blankly. He pointed to his lips and said, "Kiss me and I'll take you there."
I looked at him with a black face. "What time is it? You're still joking."
"If you don't kiss her, she'll come back." Duanmu Que made a threatening face at me. I had no choice but to move closer and kiss his lips.
