Chapter 224 Nightmare
Precisely because of the bad example of his parents, the marriage life he longs for is ordinary and harmonious.
Ever since he was old enough to understand, he swore that he would find a girl he likes and who also likes him in his life.
God was kind to him, letting him meet Xu Qingsui and now giving him such a lovely son.
He knocked on the door gently and walked in.
The mother and son were lying on the bed, and the moment he walked in, they all raised their heads and looked at him.
"Dad, you sleep here!" Xu Youyou patted the empty space on the left and said to Huo Xilin who was standing at the door: "Mommy tells us fairy tales, you listen too."
"Dad is an adult now and doesn't want to listen to fairy tales anymore." Without waiting for Huo Xilin to respond, Xu Qingsui spoke first.
A hint of disappointment appeared in Xu Youyou's eyes, and she nodded thoughtfully: "Oh."
Huo Xilin walked forward, lay down beside the little guy, stretched out his hands and hugged both of them in his arms: "Even if Daddy is an adult, he still wants to listen to fairy tales. Let your mommy tell us."
Xu Youyou's face immediately lit up with joy, and she shrank her head into her father's arms, pressing herself closer to his chest.
Then he urged Xu Qingsui, "Mommy, Daddy wants to hear a story. Tell us now!"
Xu Qingsui felt a little helpless. In his memory, Huo Xilin was not a childish person.
But seeing that they were getting along well with their father, she felt happy too, so she let the little one pick a content, and then read it with great emotion.
Time passed minute by minute, Xu Qingsui's mouth became dry from talking, he lowered his head and found that both father and son had fallen asleep.
She quietly put the book down, pulled up the quilt to cover them, and looked carefully. The big and the small looked really alike.
After many years, she observed Huo Xilin carefully. He was still as handsome as ever. The years had only added a sense of maturity to him, but left no trace on his face.
But there were dark circles under his eyes, and he looked like he hadn't gotten enough rest.
But come to think of it, managing such a large company and having countless social engagements, I guess you probably have very little rest time every day.
"Year after year..."
Suddenly, Huo Xilin opened his lips slightly and called out a name.
Xu Qingsui didn't hear clearly, so she moved closer and this time she heard clearly.
"Sui Sui... don't leave me..."
Sui Sui...
Is it Yan Xisui?
Xu Qingsui's heart suddenly fell to the bottom. Even though Yan Xisui had betrayed him twice, in his heart, he still could not forget her.
She couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile. When she thought about it, she was no different from Huo Xilin.
No matter how he hurt her, she still couldn't forget him in her heart. As long as he waved at her, she would be willing to return to him.
Love can make people humble, this is true for Qin Fang, Huo Xilin, and her too.
Xu Qingsui turned off the lights, lay on the bed, looking at the dark ceiling, and couldn't help but wonder, are there really people in this world who love each other and live happily together?
There must be, but she is not that lucky.
That night, Xu Qingsui did not sleep well. She had a strange dream. The dream was full of bizarre things and many people appeared, including her grandparents, parents, her younger brother, Qin Fang, and the yard of her childhood.
Suddenly, flames shot up into the sky, and through the flames she saw a boy.
"No!" She suddenly opened her eyes, and big drops of sweat wet her clothes.
Then the lights came on, and Huo Xilin looked at her worriedly: "Are you having a nightmare?"
Xu Youyou opened her sleepy eyes and comforted her with her chubby little hands: "Don't be afraid, Mommy, Daddy and I are always by your side."
The dream just now was too real. She could no longer remember how many times that scene of flames rising into the sky had appeared in her dream.
"I'm fine, don't worry." She said to the father and son after she calmed down.
She picked up her phone and checked the time: "Youyou, you have to go to school. Mommy will find some clothes for you."
She suddenly remembered that Xu Youyou's clothes were still in the yard and had not been moved in.
Huo Xilin put on his pajamas and walked to the closet. He saw that the closet was open and it was full of clothes for children for all seasons, all in Xu Youyou's size. He casually took out a set for this season and threw it to Xu Qingsui: "I have prepared the child's clothes a long time ago. When you have time, clean it up and see if you still need anything for the child. You can ask Aunt Wang to buy it directly, or wait until the weekend and we can go together."
He handled things so thoughtfully and considerately. Putting aside the fact that he had Yan Xisui in his heart, as a husband and father, he was qualified, even excellent.
Under Huo Xilin's expectant gaze, Xu Qingsui smiled and said, "Okay."
"Take the child to wash up first. I'll make breakfast and send you and your child off later. Those who need to go to school will go, and those who need to go to work will go." Huo Xilin said as he walked out of the bedroom.
"Mommy, are we going to live here from now on?" asked the little guy.
"What's wrong? Are you not used to living here?"
Xu Youyou shook her head and said a little embarrassedly: "I want Mommy and Daddy to be together forever, and we will be together forever."
He hugged Xu Qingsui's neck and continued, "Mommy, Dad held me in his arms to sleep last night."
After saying this, he blushed a little embarrassedly.
This was the first time in his life that he slept in his father's arms.
When he didn't have it, he didn't think it was such a rare thing, but when he received fatherly love, he realized how precious it was.
He couldn't imagine being separated from his father in the future, and was seen as a fatherless child by others.
Xu Qingsui noticed all the changes in the little guy in the past two days.
"If nothing unexpected happens, we should live here forever." Xu Qingsui couldn't guarantee whether she would be separated from Huo Xilin.
No matter in the past or now, whether together or apart, the decision-making power is never in her hands.
Thinking of hearing Huo Xilin calling Yan Xisui's nickname in his dream last night, her heart felt desolate.
"No matter what happens in the future, you must remember that mom and dad will always be your family. No one can change this. Do you understand?"
Xu Youyou was still young. He didn’t understand the stability of blood ties. He just nodded, not quite understanding.
After sending Xu Youyou to school, Xu Qingsui originally wanted to take a taxi to the museum by himself.
This place is not far from the museum. When I turned around, I found that Huo Xilin's car was still parked on the side of the road.
He rolled down the window and waved at her: "Hurry up, the traffic police will be here soon."
It is rush hour now, and the campus gate is especially congested with cars.
