Ye Yixin said, "That's what Uncle Xu Zhe said."
Hearing this, Ye Qing really regretted letting Xu Zhe take them out to play.
Xi Quan couldn't help but admire Xu Zhe in his heart. However, although he was happy, he couldn't show his excitement to Ye Qing at this moment, so he tried his best to control his excitement.
Seeing Xi Quan's happy expression, the two children felt that he had been praised, so they became even more attentive. Ye Yixin's words had already put Ye Qing in a difficult position, so Ye Yiran pressed on: "Dad, hurry up and go to sleep with Mom."
Feeling both embarrassed and angry, Ye Qing said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Mom hasn't even eaten yet since she got back. Don't you care about her? Besides, aren't you scared to sleep alone tonight?"
Ye Yiran raised his arm and said, "I'm a man now, I'm all grown up, I'm not afraid anymore."
Looking at the determination on her son's innocent face, Ye Qing felt a sense of pride, like watching her son grow up. However, she couldn't agree to her son's request. Since her son seemed unapproachable, Ye Qing turned her attention to her daughter: "Xin Xin, what about you?"
Ye Yixin is a girl, and although she hopes her parents are okay, she is still a little scared to sleep alone. But seeing her twin brother winking at her and her father encouraging her, Ye Yixin pouted and said, "I can do it."
As if afraid that Ye Yixin would change her mind again, Ye Yiran quickly said, "Mom, I'll go with my sister. I'm a man, and I can protect my sister."
The two children are still young. When they were abroad with Ye Qing, they either lived with Ye Qing or lived in a separate room. They haven't been assigned rooms yet.
So although Ye Yiran's suggestion wasn't a solution, Ye Qing couldn't find any reason to object.
Finally, Ye Qing could only use the same excuse she had just given, which her child had ignored, to defend herself again: "Mom hasn't eaten yet."
Ye Qing deliberately looked at the two children with a wronged expression.
The two children didn't seem to care much about Ye Qing's appearance. When they heard their mother's words, they jumped off the sofa to find their snacks to give to Ye Qing.
Xi Quan couldn't take his eyes off Ye Qing, because he had never seen Ye Qing act so pitiful and coquettish before. He knew Ye Qing was multifaceted, and he liked every side of her, but seeing Ye Qing acting pitiful and coquettish like a child made Xi Quan feel a little jealous. He wished Ye Qing could be so relaxed in front of him someday.
However, Xi Quan himself knew that, given the current situation, he and Ye Qing still had a long way to go before they could reconcile, and it was even uncertain whether they could reconcile at all.
However, Xi Quan never considered what would happen if they couldn't reconcile; he dared not think about such an outcome.
He said, "There's still food in the kitchen. If you don't mind, I'll heat it up for you. It's what I bought for the two kids. They didn't finish it. Or I can have Xu Zhe come over and watch the kids for a while, and we can go out to eat together."
Remembering what the child had said earlier, and hearing Xi Quan mention that Xu Zhe was needed to look after the two children, Ye Qing immediately refused: "No need, just eat whatever you have, I'm not that picky."
After saying that, Ye Qing went straight to the kitchen.
Watching Ye Qing's retreating figure, Xi Quan knew that he still had a long way to go, but since the two children had helped him so much, he couldn't let them down.
While Ye Qing was eating, Xi Quan took the child to take a bath. During the bath, Xi Quan gave the child many instructions.
Although Ye Qing didn't hear what Xi Quan and the children said, the three of them had been in the bathroom for so long that Ye Qing knew they must have said something. Although Xi Quan seemed guilty, Ye Qing also knew that Xi Quan wouldn't let any opportunity slip by.
Thinking of this, Ye Qing was stunned again, realizing that he seemed to understand Xi Quan just as well as he had a few years ago.
But weren't they already planning to separate from Xi Quan? And she'd given Xi Quan the impression that there was no room for negotiation, that they were going to divorce sooner or later anyway, so why now…
Ye Qing felt a little melancholy, but remembering what had happened in the short time she had been back today, she put aside her melancholy and went to the child's room.
The two children had already taken a bath, and when they saw Ye Qing come in, they quickly closed their eyes and pretended to go to sleep.
Ye Qing was about to lie down next to them, but the two children tacitly rolled to the edge of the bed, stopping Ye Qing from doing so.
Standing there helplessly watching her two children, Ye Qing hadn't even spoken when her son blurted out, "Mom, didn't we agree to go with Dad?"
I don't expect the child to forget this, but there's no need to remind them again and again.
Ye Qing was quite helpless. She said, "Mom thought about it and still felt that you were too young and didn't feel comfortable letting you stay in a room alone. So, how about this, we'll stay with you today."
The two children were clearly excited when they heard Ye Qing's words, but when they glanced at Xi Quan, they instantly calmed down and behaved very sensibly: "It's okay, Mom. We have to learn to get used to it as we grow up."
If Ye Qing didn't understand such an obvious emotional shift, then he would have lived in vain.
Seeing how insistent the child was, Ye Qing really didn't want to say anything more. Besides, the child was getting older, and it was only a matter of time before the child slept in a separate room. Now that the child had this wish, whatever the reason, it was good, because they would have to separate sooner or later. It was better for them to be willing now than for them to cry and refuse to separate later.
After thinking for a long time, Ye Qing said, "Then Mom will stay until you're asleep."
The two children didn't say anything this time.
After the two children fell asleep, Ye Qing whispered, "Tomorrow I'll get up early and tell the children that I'm with you."
After saying that, Ye Qing also prepared to wash up.
But to everyone's surprise, Xi Quan said, "The two of them have already taken your blanket to the master bedroom."
Hearing Xi Quan's words, Ye Qing glanced at the child's room, then opened the closet to look inside. Ye Qing said, "I'll go get the blankets."
Xi Quan remained noncommittal and followed Ye Qing to the master bedroom. After entering the master bedroom, Xi Quan closed the door and stood behind it, looking at Ye Qing, and said, "The blankets aren't here."
Ye Qing saw it too, and she looked angrily at Xi Quan: "Xi Quan, the child is ignorant, but aren't you ignorant too? Don't you know what kind of relationship we have now?"
“I know, we are husband and wife,” Xi Quan said.
It was true, but this fact also enraged Ye Qing: "You know you're married, right? Then what about your fiancée, Jiang Xinya?"
“I can explain, but you won’t listen,” Xi Quan said.
Ye Qing rolled her eyes at Xi Quan and said, "Why should I listen to your business with other people!"
So are you jealous?
