My Youth Began With Him

Then, she kissed her on the cheeks and said, “I hope you don’t blame Mommy for being too harsh. I just wanted you to learn what was right and wrong so that people won’t say that Qin Chu and I have a daughter with bad manners.”

“I understand Mommy. I was being too selfish.”

“Okay. As long as you know what you did wrong and learn from your mistakes, you don’t need to feel guilty. The sun will still rise tomorrow to a new day and what happened today cannot be changed.”

Pudding seemed to understand what her mom meant so she nodded.

“The dishes are getting cold. I’ll go into the kitchen to heat them up.”

“Mommy, I want to eat your veggie noodles, can you make some for me?” Pudding said coyishly, for the first time in a long time.

“Oh, Sis, you’re making demands again.” Little Bean covered her mouth with her hands and giggled.

Huo Mian looked at Pudding with gentle eyes and said, “Okay, give me some time. I’ll go and make you some right now.”

Then, she let Pudding down and went into the kitchen…

“Mian, let me help you.” Yang Meirong was worried about Huo Mian so she went into the kitchen with her.

Qin Chu looked at Pudding and said, “Good job.”

“I never knew you could be just like me, going the cute route…” Little Bean joked around.

“Shut up… I still have a bone to pick with you…”

“What bone? I saved your life today! If I didn’t video call Handsome Su, he would never have helped you out in front of Mommy!” Little Bean pouted.

“You really don’t know what you did wrong? You took advantage of the fact that I was locked up to privately video chat Handsome Su…” Pudding pouted.

Qin Chu watched as his daughters quarreled… He smiled happily.

Just then, he thought of something. He opened up Huo Mian’s bag and took out a box. Then, he put the box in front of Pudding.

“Your mom bought you a new phone on the way home.”

Pudding was both surprised and touched as she held the box in her hands.

“Mommy is actually really nice…” Pudding said as she bit her lips.

“Daddy, what about me? It’s not fair that she’s the only one that gets a new phone…”

“But yours isn’t broken, right?” Qin Chu asked.

“Then can I find an opportunity to smash it?” Little Bean said on purpose.

“You could, but think of how your mommy reacted today and what your sister has been through,” Qin Chu warned.

“Never mind. Actually, now that I think about it, my phone is still pretty new.” Little Bean understood that it was time to stop.

Little Bean’s words made Qin Chu and Pudding look at each other with a fun, devilish expression.

Twenty minutes later, Huo Mian came out of the kitchen with a bowl of noodle soup.

“Mommy, I want some too.”

“Little Bean, you just finished half a bowl of rice, one steamed red bean paste bun, and a slice of tiramisu,” her grandma reminded her of how much she had already eaten.

“But it’s rare when mommy cooks. I don’t want to miss out.”

“I’ve cooked more than enough. Dig in… but you can’t go to bed right after eating. You have to go downstairs and move around first,” Huo Mian said.

“Understood Mommy. We will be healthy.” Little Bean licked her mouth.

Huo Mian was speechless as ‘being healthy’ wasn’t necessarily what she normally practiced…

After apologizing, Pudding felt a lot better about herself and she was able to devour the bowl of vegetable noodle soup.

After dinner, the twins played downstairs in the living room…

Huo Mian and Qin Chu went back to their bedroom.

Huo Mian had taken her clothes off in the bathroom. Just then, Qin Chu went inside the bathroom too.

“What are you doing?”

“You.”

“You’re so dirty, Mr. Qin…”

“Who told you to ask so bluntly?” Qin Chu put on an innocent look.

“I didn’t mean that… I meant that I was going to shower so why are you following me in?”

“To shower with you.”

Huo Mian immediately blushed…

After four years, one thing had never changed and that was how directly Qin Chu spoke.

Finally, Huo Mian gave into Qin Chu’s love and they bathed together. It had been a long time since they bathed together.

When they came out of the bathtub, Huo Mian was exhausted…

She lied on her bed as she checked her phone, only to notice many missed calls.

She immediately dialed back.

“Huo Mian… Something happened to Ni Yang and he was just admitted to South Side,” Chen Jie was so scared that she was sobbing.

Huo Mian immediately jumped up. “What happened?”
