Wen Qiao instinctively wanted to ignore Shen Jichuan's emotions.
She is now worried about her three children, as well as Sister Su's troublesome daughter.
And a mother who is eccentric and always says strange things.
She had just given birth, so both her physical condition and hormone levels were unstable.
She also has recurring nightmares, about her past life, about her children, and about the future.
She would occasionally dream that Shen Jichuan was carrying her on his back, having an affair with another woman. He would coldly watch her as he walked past her with his new lover.
Every time Wen Qiao dreams of that scene, she feels heartbroken and can't breathe.
Having nightmares results in poor sleep and physical exhaustion.
But the moment Wen Qiao looked at Shen Jichuan, she noticed a hint of sadness in his eyes.
This is something Wen Qiao cannot understand.
Shen Jichuan held a high position and was both steady and wealthy.
Why is there still sadness in him, that pitiful feeling as if he has never been loved?
Wen Qiao's heart softened as well.
She said softly, "I only love you. I followed you as soon as I came to the city. I don't know any other men besides you."
Are you afraid I won't be able to grow old with you?
After asking, Wen Qiao chuckled softly, "I may never meet anyone who treats me better than you in the future."
He dotes on her, loves her, and is willing to spend money on her.
There may be others in the future, but it's highly unlikely that anyone will be as open and generous as Shen Jichuan was to her.
Wen Qiao didn't believe that the two of them were together without any ulterior motives.
Men and women are simply two different things: one is lustful, and the other is greedy.
Even if it's because of pure love.
But people change, and feelings naturally change as well.
Things change, like clouds in the sky, constantly shifting.
It is the most uncontrollable thing.
Wen Qiao was just overthinking it. She and Shen Jichuan are in love now, and they will continue to love each other for the rest of their lives, which is naturally wonderful.
If, later on, they are unable to love each other.
She would also prepare herself mentally in advance.
Having already died once, she needs to be rational and clear-headed.
Shen Jichuan didn't say anything more; he felt that talking about these romantic things was impractical.
He wanted to spend his life with Wen Qiao.
He thinks it, he will do it, and he will do it.
Eat well.
Shen Jichuan said in a low voice, and sat down next to Wen Qiao, watching her eat slowly and carefully.
Seeing that he wasn't leaving, Wen Qiao took the opportunity during their meal to mention what Su Mei had said.
After swallowing the food in her mouth, Wen Qiao spoke:
"Su Mei's husband is named Xia Mingxuan. He said he works at a research base, but I don't know what kind of place that is. She happened to be out buying groceries when she ran into Director Xu's housekeeper. They got to know each other after a while, and she heard about this from Director Xu's housekeeper."
"You said you wanted me to ask, but I only agreed to ask; I didn't promise to help."
After listening, Shen Jichuan said, "It's not a secret mission. The research team needs to produce results, and several leaders from the division are going there to learn some advanced skills."
"Academic and practical exchanges."
Wen Qiao asked, "Will you go?"
Shen Jichuan said, "Even if I were to go, I would have to refuse. My wife and children are at home, and she hasn't even finished her postpartum confinement. I don't have any urgent missions right now."
"This time, it was Political Commissar Wang and Director Xu who went."
"You can have Su Mei ask Political Commissar Wang about this."
In fact, Political Commissar Wang knew more than he did.
It would be more convenient for Su Mei to go to Political Commissar Wang for this matter than to him.
Wen Qiao hummed in agreement.
