Five years ago, a conspiracy led to an unexpected pregnancy, a city-wide manhunt, and homelessness.
In despair, she fled to another country.
Five years later, she made a grand return wi...
"Oh, no need to pack. Everything is prepared at the Imperial Palace!" He Meiqi said without thinking.
"But, my things..." As soon as Xia Yunxi finished speaking, Xia Yuan, who was held in He Meiqi's arms, immediately became unhappy.
"Mommy, I want to come with you."
Perhaps it was because he was left in the Imperial Palace and was traumatized. As soon as Xia Yu'an heard that his mother was leaving, he immediately protested.
"I……"
Li Jinchen, who was sitting on Li Hanting's arm, also spoke.
However, just as he finished speaking, Li Hanting asked in a cold tone: "What?"
It was light and there was obviously no emotion in the words, but when they came out, people felt a hint of threat for no reason.
Li Jinchen immediately stopped talking, raised his head, and looked at his father with his crystal clear eyes.
The meaning is so obvious that it is hard to ignore.
Xia Yunan didn't care about his brother's situation. All his attention was now on Mommy, and he was determined not to let Mommy leave his sight.
Xia Yunxi walked over and said, "Mommy is just going back to sort out some things..."
"No, I want to be with Mommy."
At the same time, Xia Yuan had already let go of He Meiqi's neck and leaned his small body towards Xia Yunxi.
"Yes, Yunxi, look, your good boy can't live without you. How about this, if you have anything, tell the housekeeper and let the housekeeper get it for you." He Meiqi also advised.
"this……"
"Why, is it so difficult to choose?" Li Hanting glanced over with indifferent eyes, and it was hard to ignore the coldness in them.
Xia Yunxi stopped talking, not because she was afraid of him, but because she didn't want to continue to argue here in front of the hospital entrance.
Because there is no need!
Forget it, if you don’t want to take it, then don’t take it. It’s the same if you find a time to go back and get it later.
Xia Yunxi thought so.
A group of people got into the car and drove towards the imperial palace.
Xia Yunxi couldn't describe her feelings as she looked out the window at the rows of receding scenery. The bare tree trunks added a touch of winter to the scene.
If you ignore the biting cold wind!
Asking her to live in the imperial palace was a weak request in itself, and even carried a sense of contempt.
It’s all just for the kids!
Xia Yunxi did think so. For the sake of her children, she could endure all the unfair treatment. After all, the two children were still young. Once they grew up a little, she could step back.
Another point, in fact, think about it, living in the imperial palace can also reduce her living burden, at least she does not have to pay rent. At the same time, she can also accompany her two children. No matter how you think about it, it seems to be a good deal. She has made a profit.
Xia Yunxi tried her best to ignore the existence of her identity.
When I thought about the pros and cons, the slight resistance in my heart completely dissipated.
The people in the Li family really love their two children, just take their discharge from the hospital today as an example.
Li Hanting, who is usually extremely busy, actually took time out to come here specially.
Looking at the happy smile on Xia Yuan's face, and Jin Chen's, even though Baozi usually had a cool look on his face, in such an atmosphere, the shy smile on that little face could not be concealed.
Xia Yunxi suddenly understood, and she felt a little uncomfortable. She owed her two children so much that they couldn't live in a normal family and had no normal parents...
However, at this moment, the family was just sitting in the car, but the expression on the child's face could not be concealed at all!
Xia Yunxi lowered her eyes and didn't look at He Meiqi teasing Xia Yu'an over there.
Trapped in your own thoughts.
Xia Yuan was speaking fluent English with his grandmother, which made He Meiqi amazed.
Xia Yu'an was very proud, but the next second he heard his grandmother ask him: "My dear, what you said is really good, really great...but, what does it mean?"
"Puff." Qin Zhe, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, couldn't help shaking his shoulders.
"Assistant Qin, don't think I can't see you just because you're sitting in the front." He Meiqi said softly.
Qin Zhe quickly made an OK gesture, indicating that he would not make any more noise.
But, this grandmother and granddaughter pair are really funny!
Several cars in a group arrived at the destination very quickly.
Hearing the sound, Aunt Lin came out from the villa and immediately smiled when she saw the two children.
The butler carried the luggage into the living room, and Li Hanting took Qin Zhe upstairs.
As soon as he left, the atmosphere in the living room became relaxed.
The two children returned to their long-lost home, although Xia Yuanyuan did not have such a strong sense of belonging.
But, coming back here still comforted the little guy's frightened heart.
At night, the dry and cold winter finally brought about a heavy snow.
Although it is spring inside the villa all year round, it is in stark contrast to the cold weather outside.
Xia Yunxi, wearing a loose sweater and tight cropped pants, came down from upstairs and saw the heavy snow outside the floor-to-ceiling window. A look of surprise appeared on her beautiful face hidden under her hair.
No matter how many times, seeing snow was still a strange and surprising thing for her.
Before I knew it, I was in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. The heavy snow was falling like cotton wool, as if someone was sprinkling cotton balls.
However, this kind of cotton is not something that can move people.
Suddenly, a strong light shone in from outside.
Xia Yunxi raised her hand to shield her eyes. Through her fingers, she saw the black limited edition Phantom slowly driving towards the underground garage.
Xia Yunxi's eyes moved slightly, and after a while, she saw a tall and slender figure appear in the snow outside.
As he walked, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, held it in the corner of his mouth, then protected the flame with one hand and lit it with his head tilted.
Even though it was snowing, the courtyard was still bright. The misty white smoke collided with the snow in the air, and it seemed that even that touch of white could be infected with a severe chill.
Li Hanting's footsteps were heavy, and soon the sound of a door opening was heard at the entrance.
Because it was late, all the servants in the villa had already gone to bed.
If the two children hadn't been crying out for hunger, Xia Yunxi wouldn't have come downstairs. As her thoughts turned, her eyes inadvertently met the deep and gloomy gaze that came out of the entrance.
Li Hanting raised his eyebrows slightly, and paused for only a moment. He walked into the living room, untied the watch on his wrist, and then took off his clothes. During this time, his eyes never left Xia Yunxi.
Although, as long as I have a clear conscience, I can be considered upright.
However, being looked at in such a manner, Xia Yunxi still felt slightly uncomfortable, and her mind recalled the scene where the two of them quarreled almost every time they met.
She curled her lips slightly: "Well, the children are hungry... I'll come down and cook some noodles for you, do you need it?"
Li Hanting's eyes scanned her from head to toe, and he casually threw away the clothes he had taken off. He replied in a calm voice without any emotion, "Okay."
After answering, he turned and walked towards the kitchen.
Xia Yunxi was stunned for a moment, trying to confirm whether she had heard correctly.
