Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 954: Chapter 948: Lonely Person_1

After Xiao Qi helped Chu Molin and the others carry their luggage to the station, he stood to the side, waiting for the train with them. Looking at their excess baggage and their three adults and several children, he realized it would be impossible for them to move all of it on their own. Hence, he decided to help them get on the train before he left.

“Xiao Qi, if you’re busy, you can leave first. We’ll manage to move the bags later,” Qin Xue said, looking at Xiao Qi, feeling a little embarrassed.

“It’s okay. I specifically came to help you all today, so sister-in-law, don’t worry about me delaying my work,” Xiao Qi said with a smile.

“Oh, as long as it’s not a bother,” Qin Xue felt relieved after hearing his reply. Otherwise, she’d certainly have felt uncomfortable.

The group was a sight to behold – attractive men, beautiful women, and cute children, drawing the attention of many passersby. Especially Chu Molin in his military uniform, capturing the eyes of many young girls. However, seeing the child he was holding, they could only sigh in disappointment, realizing that this handsome man was already taken, causing their hearts to break into pieces.

Xiao Qi was in a smart suit, looking incredibly handsome. Seeing another woman with a boy and visibly pregnant, they assumed he too was taken. People couldn’t help but feel regretful. Why did all the good men seemed to belong to someone else?

Listening to the surrounding murmurs, none of them knew how to react. Chu Molin and Qin Xue did not care since they were a married couple, but it seemed somewhat wrong to pair up Xiao Qi and Fang Xiu so casually. The three of them turned to look at Xiao Qi at the same moment.

“Why are you all looking at me like that?” Xiao Qi asked, glancing at them.

“It’s nothing,” Qin Xue and Fang Xiu replied in unison, while Chu Molin merely turned his face away expressionlessly.

“They’re just baseless rumors. Surely you don’t think that I’d get mad about such things?” Only then did Xiao Qi understand why they were looking at him like that. Even though others might not know the truth, the people involved should be clear about it.

“I was afraid that you’d overthink and misunderstand,” Qin Xue teased.

“Sister-in-law, don’t make fun of me. You know, I’m still single and unattached,” Xiao Qi said, wishing that Beiying, the heartless woman, would consent to marry him. He had been trying to get close to her in these few months, but she only considered him as an ordinary friend, with no other intentions, which was quite discouraging. He didn’t quite know how to proceed.

“Haha, what Ying wants is a man who can support her, who can stay by her side, not a boyfriend who is seldom around. Do you understand?” Qin Xue slightly leaned closer to him after hearing his words and whispered this sentence.

“Sister-in-law, you knew,” Xiao Qi blushed a bit.

“I’m not blind! Every time Ying comes to our house, you always come shortly after. If I still can’t figure this out, then I must be the real fool,” Qin Xue said. The one time she saw Ying’s swollen lips after being kissed, she knew Xiao Qi had feelings for Ying. However, knowing that Ying is clueless about love, she didn’t say much. But seeing Xiao Qi like this now, she felt she should say something, otherwise who knows when these two might make progress with their relationship.

“Oh, I thought big brother or you told me. So I was too obvious? If you knew, then why doesn’t Ying?” Xiao Qi wondered. Even Qin Xue knew, why was it that this woman couldn’t understand?

He didn’t know what Beiying was thinking all day. Every time he saw her, she had the same expression and he couldn’t tell whether she was happy or displeased.
