Despite feeling overwhelming guilt, he didn't offer any explanation and instead silently returned to his room.

A thousand words are not as good as some concrete proof.

To change his parents' perception of him, he needed to close the deal and show the results to the two elders.

This is much better than him spending ages explaining things now.

Soon, he arrived at the bedroom.

The room was very simple, and the bedding was very worn out.

But for Wang Qian at this moment, it felt incredibly warm and comfortable.

Because there was someone else waiting for him silently in bed.

This was the happiness he couldn't salvage in the latter half of his previous life, no matter how hard he tried.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told Mom and Dad about it during the day!"

Hearing footsteps, Lin Xiaoyu on the bed trembled and curled up in the corner as much as possible.

Wang Qian paused in his steps.

This is such a small thing, why do you need to apologize to me?

It's so pitiful, it breaks my heart!

But in his previous life, he abandoned Lin Xiaoyu when she needed him most, completely breaking her heart.

He didn't answer immediately, but silently walked to the bedside and sat down, leaning close to Lin Xiaoyu's ear to ask, "Xiaoyu, what gift do you want?"

"Gift?"

Lin Xiaoyu was slightly taken aback.

When Wang Qian came in, she was actually mentally prepared to accept all kinds of anger and resentment.

Unexpectedly,

Wang Qian would actually say something that surprised her immensely.

"I'll buy it for you tomorrow when I make some money and come back from the county town."

Wang Qian forcibly turned Lin Xiaoyu over and pressed her for an answer: "Tell me, what gift do you want?"

Lin Xiaoyu was somewhat surprised.

She forced down her unease and looked up at Wang Qian, who was now almost in front of her. "Are you really going to buy me a gift?"

"certainly!"

Wang Qian nodded, "You're my wife, I want to give you the best!"

Lin Xiaoyu blinked, somewhat unable to believe her eyes.

Wang Qian, who had always loathed her, was actually going to buy her a gift?

And he said it so seriously!

Could it be a lie?

"Xiaoyu, say something!"

Wang Qian added, "We've been married for so long, and I haven't bought you any gifts yet."

Lin Xiaoyu snapped out of her daze and hurriedly shook her head, "I...don't want to!"

"don't want?"

Wang Qian was taken aback. "Why?"

"because……"

Lin Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment before carefully saying, "It's good enough that you're not angry with me. I don't dare to ask for anything else."

She paused for a moment, then added, "Also, if you really want to buy me a gift, why not buy some warm clothes for the baby? It's cold now, and I'm worried the baby will get cold after birth."

Wang Qian's breath hitched.

This time, I realized I hadn't considered things thoroughly enough.

He was only focused on making amends to Lin Xiaoyu, neglecting the unborn child.

"Don't worry, I'll buy the baby warm clothes, and you won't forget your gift!"

Lin Xiaoyu simply nodded slightly and urged, "You've been busy all day and must be tired. Go to sleep!"

Like everyone else, she didn't believe Wang Qian's claim that she could make money.

However, Wang Qian's attitude towards her made her somewhat uncomfortable.

It wasn't that she didn't want it to be this way, but she always felt that Wang Qian's change was too rapid, giving her the illusion that she was shrouded in a conspiracy.

She didn't say anything on the surface, but she was constantly uneasy inside.

"Okay, let's go to sleep first!"

Wang Qian had no idea what Lin Xiaoyu was thinking.

Seeing that the other party didn't want to say more, he had no choice but to lie down and go to sleep.

He drove a tractor and went to buy potatoes today, carrying them up and down, and he was really exhausted.

Besides, neither his parents nor Lin Xiaoyu probably had much hope for this business deal he was making.

Before he had actually made the money, he didn't need to make too many promises, otherwise Lin Xiaoyu would just think he was daydreaming.

...

the next day.

Wang Qian got up just as dawn was breaking.

In the past, he would have definitely thrown off the covers, gotten up, and dressed without caring whether Lin Xiaoyu would get cold.

But today, he was being extra careful.

Afraid of disturbing Lin Xiaoyu who was fast asleep, he didn't turn on the light and quietly slipped out from under the covers.

Finally, he carefully tucked the quilt back in to prevent the cold air from seeping into the bed.

With the help of the dim light, he could vaguely see Lin Xiaoyu's sleeping profile.

Her skin was smooth and delicate, rosy and glowing, with a few strands of hair falling across her cheeks, making her look extremely charming.

"very nice!"

A knowing smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.

Reborn, all the people and things I regretted are still by my side.

He will strive for it and will not let these moments of happiness slip away again.

He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the complex emotions in his heart, and quietly left the bedroom.

But what he didn't see after he left was that Lin Xiaoyu, who was fast asleep, opened her eyes.

She turned her head and stared blankly at the empty doorway.

"He...he has really changed!"

After a long while, she murmured something to herself in a voice only she could hear.

...

"Mom, why are you up so early?"

Upon arriving in the kitchen, Wang Qian was somewhat surprised.

His mother, Lu Aihua, was cooking porridge in the kitchen at that moment, though it was unclear when it started.

"Weren't you going to the county town?"

Lu Aihua turned around and glanced at him, then smiled and said, "Mom will cook you some porridge so you won't go hungry on the way."
