Ji Xiaoxiao pouted and said reproachfully, "You want to break up with me?"

Hu Song realized he had said the wrong thing and it took him a long time to coax Ji Xiaoxiao back to her senses.

Five days later, the news that Mayor Hu Shiquan was seriously ill and unable to get out of bed became known throughout the city.

“Hu Song,” Ji Xiaoxiao said worriedly.

"It's alright, I'll go back and check now."

Hu Song embarked on his journey home with a heartbroken expression.

Much later, Hu Song returned and told Ji Xiaoxiao that his father was safe and sound, but because of his serious illness, he might never wake up again.

"It's good that he's still alive." Ji Xiaoxiao didn't like Hu Shiquan, but because of Hu Song, she said this lightly.

After graduating from high school, they were to enter university. Ji Xiaoxiao and Hu Song achieved excellent results in the college entrance examination and easily entered the best universities in the country.

Ji Xiaoxiao chose to study literature, while Hu Song went to study medicine. The two departments were far apart, making it difficult for them to see each other on a regular basis.

Distance makes the heart grow fonder, and their relationship only grew stronger. For four years of university, they were the sole recipients of the "Best Couple Award" at XX University.

Graduating from university naturally leads to things like getting married.

Six months later, Ji Xiaoxiao became pregnant, and Hu Song took her back to his hometown, where the air was fresh and the environment was beautiful, to rest and prepare for childbirth.

"She's pregnant?"

Outside the house, Yang's father looked at Ji Xiaoxiao's flat belly, at a loss for what to do.

"I'm pregnant," Ji Xiaoxiao said happily as she exchanged a glance with Hu Song.

That day, Ji Xiaoxiao became the retired emperor of the Yang family.

Pregnancy was incredibly boring; it was all about eating, sleeping, and then eating again, with a short walk in between. After a month, Ji Xiaoxiao's chin had developed three layers of fat.

One day, Hu Song, who rarely gets a break, lay lazily on the sofa doing nothing.

"When I take the ring and put it on your ring finger, darling, you..." The phone rang incessantly, and Hu Song frowned.

"For, who?" The caller ID indicated an unknown number.

"Young Master, I missed you."

Upon hearing the sound, Hu Song was startled.

"Why are you calling?" Hu Song looked around, thankfully no one was there.

"We heard you're back. The five of us missed you, young master, so we called to ask if you still remember what happened five years ago?"

threaten!

These two words flashed through Hu Song's mind.

"What do you want?" Hu Song asked in a low voice.

“Young Master, you know what we want.” The woman’s voice paused, then continued, “Young Master, Xiao Huzi and the others just said that you should take a good shower before you come over.”

"knew."

Hu Song clutched his phone, wanting to smash it in frustration, but he was afraid of disturbing Ji Xiaoxiao. He tiptoed to open the door, glanced tenderly at Ji Xiaoxiao, and left with his wallet.

At the door, Hu Song and Yang's mother unexpectedly met.

Hu Song was taken aback and asked, "Mom, where are you going?"

"I just went to the market and bought some fresh vegetables." Yang's mother held up her shopping basket, proud of the fresh meat and vegetables she had managed to snag.

"Song'er, are you going out?" asked Mother Yang.

"Yes, I have some things to do." Hu Song dared not look directly into Yang's mother's sincere eyes.

Yang's mother, unsuspecting, said with a smile, "You've worked hard. Come home early today, and we'll have something delicious to eat." She seemed to be coaxing a child.

Hu Song nodded solemnly.

After seeing Hu Song off, Yang's mother went to the kitchen and took out some vegetables to wash.

Ji Xiaoxiao woke up slowly in Ji Xiaoxiao's room.

After washing her face, Ji Xiaoxiao looked in the mirror in the bathroom. Her face was wet and her figure was bloated. She felt extremely disdainful.

"Fat pig."

"Big fat pig."

The person in the mirror was making ridiculous expressions and movements, and Ji Xiaoxiao burst out laughing.

Stepping out of the room, Ji Xiaoxiao looked left and right, but she couldn't find Hu Song.

"Mom, where did Hu Songren go?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked Yang's mother, who was busy in the kitchen.

Yang's mother didn't even look up, focused on washing vegetables, "He went back to his hometown to visit his father."

Visiting Hu Shiquan?

For a moment, Ji Xiaoxiao's brain nerves snapped.

Oh no, she had completely forgotten about Hu Shiquan. Back when she married Hu Song, Hu Shiquan was seriously ill and unable to attend. As his daughter-in-law, she should have at least gone to visit him. How could she have so carelessly forgotten about him?

After slapping herself, Ji Xiaoxiao told Yang's mother that she would also go to the Hu family.

The Hu family and the Yang family didn't live far apart; it was only a fifteen-minute walk. They were neighbors in the same street. Yang's mother wasn't worried about Ji Xiaoxiao and even suggested that Ji Xiaoxiao buy some gifts on the way, as it wouldn't be good to visit her father-in-law empty-handed.

Ji Xiaoxiao obeyed and bought a basket of melons and fruits.

Standing outside the Hu family's gate, the large iron gate was unlocked. Ji Xiaoxiao invited them to come in.

As she approached, Ji Xiaoxiao heard panting sounds in the small garden.

"Hurry up, hurry up! Haven't you eaten?"

"Ah, that's it, bigger, faster."

"Auntie, it's my turn, please come down quickly."

"No, it's me, it's me who found me."

Ji Xiaoxiao followed the sound, tiptoed slightly, and carefully peeked over the lush holly bushes.
