Xu Jianghai, who was lying on the roof, felt utterly ashamed.
He returned from a mission to find his mother gone, and his wife, citing her pregnancy, hadn't gone back to their hometown to pay her respects. He had nothing to say.
There's no one left in the countryside, so it's only natural to take the child in and raise him. I hadn't heard her complain in the last couple of days, so I thought she could accept the child. But then she gave me this big surprise.
He wants a son and doesn't like daughters, but that doesn't mean he doesn't want daughters. What right does Zhou Miao have to treat his child like this?
She slapped herself hard across the face and looked to Xie Lin for help.
"Deputy Regiment Commander Xie, could you please escort me down?"
"What's the rush? Let's listen to it some more."
Xie Lin remained motionless and picked up the little girl who had been sitting on the seesaw for a while.
He took out three milk candies from his pocket, gave one to Shishi and one to Chou Chou, and then peeled one open for himself, letting Nannan lick it, making the child giggle, like a family of four who came to play.
Xu Jianghai had a leg injury, making it inconvenient for him to go down alone. No matter how anxious he was, he could only wait.
His resentful gaze swept into the alley, as if he wanted to drag out the person hiding inside and tear him to pieces.
Her actions not only destroyed his family, but also brought his future to a standstill.
The older generation really wasn't lying: when choosing a wife, you should marry a virtuous one; if you marry a troublemaker, your family will never have peace.
After finishing her milk candy, Shishi bounced like a spring to another rooftop, lay down, hooked herself onto the eaves and hung upside down, pulling her hands down to cover her eyes and sticking out her tongue.
"Zhou Miao, Zhou Miao, you're in trouble."
Zhou Miao hid and dared not go out, peeking out from time to time. She hated Xie Guihua for meddling and was afraid that she would make a big fuss. She prayed to the gods and Buddhas that the two of them would quickly take the child and leave.
She never imagined she would be so unlucky; Gong An suddenly appeared.
Upon seeing Xiao Shi's figure, the fear in my heart reached its peak.
Everyone in the compound knew that Xiao Shi, Zhou Shi, and Chou Chou were inseparable.
For a normal person, one being mentally challenged and two being small are not a threat at all. What is frightening is that these three cannot be viewed as normal people.
Children are strong, clever, and possess many strange and wonderful abilities; this is one of them.
Based on what she had heard in the family compound, Chief Xiao and his wife cherished Zhou Shi very much, so the three of them would not leave the family compound alone. There must be soldiers following them, and she could guess that it was Xie Lin.
As a top soldier, Xie Lin's abilities are undeniable. If he were also present, I would be truly doomed.
She wanted to run away; she could leave this place by going out of the alley in the opposite direction, but her legs wouldn't obey her and kept shaking, so she couldn't stand up at all.
Just as she mustered the courage to take a step and lean against the wall to get up, she heard a strange sound above her head. Listening closely, it sounded like someone was calling her name.
How do I know her name?
They looked up and their eyes met.
"ah."
Very well, you've given yourself away.
