Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 792: Chapter 786: Chased by Ghosts

Upon hearing Ye Li, Qin Jiale didn’t have time to say anything because she heard footsteps getting closer and closer. She got scared and ran as if a ghost was chasing her from behind.

Seeing her reaction, Ye Li broke into a cheerful laughter, glanced at the thing in his hand, and then looked at Qin Jiale who had run far away before leaving himself.

As Qin Jiale heard the laughter coming from behind her, she stumbled and almost fell to her knees. She couldn’t believe that Ye Li, that guy, would laugh like that. She looked up at the sky, wondering if the sun had risen from the west. Then she steadied herself, shook her head, and returned to her dormitory.

When Niu Jun arrived at the place where Qin Jiale had just been standing, he found no one there. Was it possible that he had heard wrong? He was sure that he had heard a voice talking. And it sounded like the voice of the girl he liked. But where were the people? Had he encountered a ghost? Thinking about this, Niu Jun glanced around, rubbed his arm, and left.

Back in the Imperial Capital, when Qin Xue woke up, she found that Chu Molin’s figure had already disappeared from her side. It seemed that he had rushed to school early in the morning. He had been so hurried to come and go, it must be hard for him.

Thinking about yesterday, Qin Xue was speechless. After they had finished their meal, they had gone to the Xiao’s home with An Hao, but Qin Xue didn’t know what they would talk about there.

...
“Brother, sister-in-law, wait for me!” Chu Xiaoqiao hurriedly chased after her elder brother and sister-in-law, thinking they were walking too fast. It was all her second brother’s fault. He was too slow.

Upon hearing this, Qin Xue and Chu Molin slowed down to let Xiaoqiao catch up. Xiaoqiao ran so fast, they were afraid she would trip and fall if they didn’t wait for her.

“Take your time. No one is chasing you.” Qin Xue looked at the panting Xiaoqiao, wondering why she was in such a rush. Did she still not recognize the Xiao family or something?

“Well, nobody is actually chasing me, but my mother told me to invite you over to our house later to hold the baby.” Recalling her mother’s words, Xiaoqiao knew they actually meant to let her sister-in-law hold the baby for a while. How could she not understand her mother’s intentions? With this thought in mind, Xiaoqiao raised her head cautiously to look at her elder brother. Realizing he was just coldly staring at her but not saying anything, she grew increasingly nervous. What did his silence mean?

“No, we will visit the Li’s later, and you can hold the baby there.” Chu Molin left these words behind and walked away, pulling Qin Xue with him.

“Uh, brother…” Chu Xiaoqiao sadly watched Chu Molin leave. She felt like she had done nothing wrong, so what was going on?

“Sigh, Chu Molin, slow down. You’re walking too fast; I can’t catch up.” Qin Xue looked at Molin’s annoyed expression and couldn’t help but speak up. He seemed so reluctant to even step inside.

Chu Molin slowed down a bit, knowing that his wife was suggesting this for his own good. He wanted to cooperate with her, so he walked a little slower.

“Chu Molin, I don’t know what happened between you guys, but you need to realize that once some things are gone, they won’t come back. It’s like people; when they’re alive, you might not think much of them, considering them unimportant. But once they’re gone, they become a thorn in your heart, constantly pricking at you, hurting every time you touch it. The thorn is so deeply embedded that you can’t remove it, and it bleeds every time you try to.

Why don’t you try stringing together everything that happened and think about whether it’s really worth all this time you’re spending on forgetting and evading? Are there really no family members of yours that are worth loving or wanting to keep? As your wife, I will always stand by your side, but I don’t want you to have regrets later. You know what I mean, right?” After finishing her words, Qin Xue looked up at Chu Molin and asked.

Chu Molin didn’t know how to respond to Qin Xue’s question. Instead of hatred, he simply didn’t know how to face it.
