Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1897: Chapter 1896: Don’t Make Things Hard on Yourself

“Xiaoxiao, you don’t need to do this.”

Qiao Xiuyun frowned deeply, looking at Bai Xiaoxiao with distress.

If before, Xiaoxiao said she wouldn’t associate with Luo Haofeng again, she would have been very happy.

But now it’s different, Xiaoxiao is pregnant with Luo Haofeng’s child. She can’t be a single mom, it’s too exhausting, not to mention the future where the child would be pointed at…

Bai Xiaoxiao was very determined.

After learning about the events of the past yesterday afternoon, she made the decision to break up with Luo Haofeng.

She couldn’t let her mother be heartbroken anymore.

Even though her mother now agreed to her being with Luo Haofeng, she knew it was because she was pregnant with Luo Haofeng’s child.

Pressing her lips together, she said softly, “Mom, you don’t need to worry. I can raise the child by myself.”

“We can talk about this later, you’ve broken up with Luo Haofeng, and mom won’t force you to be with him. Don’t do anything foolish because of those things.”

Qiao Xiuyun was referring to the child in her belly.

Warmth seeped into Bai Xiaoxiao’s heart, and she nodded, promising, “Mom, rest assured, I won’t be that foolish.”

She couldn’t hurt her baby because of disputes from the previous generation. No matter what happens with Luo Haofeng in the future, this child in her belly is incredibly precious to her.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiuyun felt slightly reassured.

The tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and she said gently, “Xiaoxiao, I know you can’t accept those things right now, and you’re definitely very upset. But those things happened so long ago, mom doesn’t want you to be troubled by them.”

“I know.”

Bai Xiaoxiao answered softly.

She certainly knew, her mom would rather be upset alone than let her be upset.

“Before, I opposed you being with Luo Haofeng, it was actually somewhat selfish.” Qiao Xiuyun paused for two seconds and explained.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s expression changed slightly, “Mom, I was wrong before, I know you are looking out for me, just like you said, even if you agree to me being with Luo Haofeng, Wu Jingfang would never accept me.”

Qiao Xiuyun sighed softly.

Knowing what she’s saying, Xiaoxiao wouldn’t change her mind for now.

“Alright, this matter must never be mentioned again.”

Bai Xiaoxiao nodded; she wouldn’t bring it up again, nor would she uncover her mother’s wounds.

Qiao Xiuyun gently patted her and stood up saying, “Xiaoxiao, have a good sleep.”

After she left the room, Bai Xiaoxiao lay on the bed and dialed Wen Ran’s number.

“Ranran, I have already talked to my mom about the matter.”

“What did Aunt Qiao and Uncle Bai say?”

Wen Ran asked concernedly over the phone, having worried ever since she sent Bai Xiaoxiao home.

Even upon receiving her call, her anxious heart had not yet settled.

“They were calmer than I imagined. They said they wouldn’t interfere in my matters with Luo Haofeng, nor would they force me.”

Bai Xiaoxiao knew that her parents’ calmness and indifference were just a facade. How could such pain be easily brushed off?

“In that case, don’t think too much, you didn’t rest well last night, you should get some rest!”

“Where are you now, aren’t you home?”

“Ziyi wants to see Qingqing, we’re at An Lin’s house.”

Wen Ran’s voice carried a hint of laughter; Ziyi wanted to share the good news with Qingqing since he made a good amount of money today.

Although Qingqing couldn’t understand what he was saying, Qingqing really liked Ziyi and was especially happy playing with him, babbling words that no one else understood.

As soon as Ziyi arrived at An Lin’s house, everyone relaxed.

An Lin and Wen Ran sat on the sofa chatting, while the two old ladies went out for a walk, grocery shopping.

Wen Ran hung up the phone, and only then did An Lin speak up, “I heard it from Ah Mu at noon, and I was a bit skeptical at first. So, Jiang Hui is still in B City?”

An Lin, who now stayed at home to raise children, wasn’t very informed about external matters.

She only knew Mo Xiuchen hired a woman named Jiang Hui at the company as an intern, without knowing the reason.

Wen Ran nodded, speaking casually, “Yes, she’ll come back with Mo Xiuchen.”

“Has Jiang Hui been at the company for so long and you’re not worried at all?” An Lin looked at Wen Ran curiously.

“How about someone targeting Qin Mu? Would you be worried?”

Wen Ran answered with a question, her eyes smiling gently, showing no sign of concern at all.

An Lin snorted with laughter, “Ah Mu doesn’t even bother with people, no woman would admire him!”

“You are wrong; over the years, I’ve seen many admire Qin Mu. If no one actually liked him, what did you like about him?”

An Lin had no retort, and could only shoot a playful glare at Wen Ran.

Not far away, Qingqing’s giggling was heard; Wen Ran and An Lin turned their heads to see Ziyi playing games with Qingqing.

Somehow, he made her laugh continuously, and her eyes were completely laughing with delight.

An Lin laughed, “Seems I should send Qingqing to your house earlier.”

“Sure, as long as you and Qin Mu are willing, Ziyi is also eager for Qingqing to come to our house soon.”

Although there are already three kids making noise at home every day, plus Gu Kai’s two kids, making it five in total.

But Wen Ran didn’t feel bothered by it.

Most of the time, the kids are well-behaved and understanding.

Plus, Mo Xiuchen, who often shares her time with the kids, although not spending every day tangled with kids.

Qingqing is so adorable. Not only does Ziyi like her, but Xin Xin, Momo, and Tongtong also really adore Qingqing.

“Qingqing, have some water first.”

In front of the stroller, Ziyi first tested the water temperature, making sure it wasn’t too hot before bringing the bottle to Qingqing’s mouth.

He gently coaxed, “Qingqing, you need to drink water to grow beautifully. When it gets cooler, brother will take you out to play.”

Qingqing seemed to understand Ziyi’s words. Her bright eyes looked at him, and her innocent smile was indescribably cute.

More obedient than when grandma or her grandmother feeds her water, her chubby little hands lightly grabbing Ziyi’s hand holding the water bottle, she gurgled the water down.

Ziyi smiled contentedly at Qingqing drinking the water, then only took the cup away once he felt she had drunk enough.

He carefully wiped her corners of her mouth.

Seeing his skillful motion shows Ziyi is not new at comforting kids and is indeed quite experienced.

After wiping her mouth, he turned to ask An Lin and Wen Ran, “Mom, Aunt An, Qingqing has drunk water. She should need to pee soon. Can I take her out of the stroller?”

An Lin quickly got up and approached, “Ziyi, Aunt An will carry sister, she’s grown too chubby recently for you to hold her.”

“Sister isn’t chubby, she is very cute like this.” Ziyi immediately defended without thinking.
