Chapter 553 Firmly believing that such a day will come.
Han Mingyu came under the pretense of visiting the child, and Qi Mingxuan treated him as half a family member, so her attitude towards him was neither warm nor cold.
The servants in the manor all knew Han Mingyu and treated him like a second master.
However, Han Mingyu had always brought Qi Yue with him before, this was the first time he had come alone.
Qi Mingxuan thought that Qi Yue was in school and that Han Mingyu would go back in two days.
Three days passed, but Han Mingyu still showed no intention of leaving.
She asked Han Mingyu when he was going back. Qi Yue was alone in Beicheng, and she felt that this was not fair.
Although she knew that the elders of the Han family loved Qi Yue very much and would take good care of him, for a child, his parents are his whole world.
Before she went abroad for further studies, she talked with Qi Yue. She said that her younger sister was still young, and she would take her sister abroad with her. She would bring her sister back after she finished her studies. During this time, Han Mingyu would stay in China to accompany her.
Qi Yue is sensible and supports all her decisions.
Previously, whenever Han Mingyu wanted to visit Xiao Hanxi at the manor, she would ask him to arrange for Qi Yue to come along during his vacation.
This time, Han Mingyu came suddenly without informing her beforehand.
But Qi Mingxuan thought that since she was already here, it wouldn't be appropriate for her to talk to Han Mingyu about it, since Han Mingyu should be going back in a few days anyway.
However, she did not expect that Han Mingyu had not made any plans to return to Beicheng after three days.
Qi Mingxuan felt it was necessary to have a proper conversation with Han Mingyu.
On the fourth day, while having breakfast, Qi Mingxuan looked at Han Mingyu and asked, "When do you plan to go back?"
Han Mingyu paused in his act of feeding his daughter millet porridge.
He looked up at Qi Mingxuan across from him and said, "I haven't had much work at the company lately, so I have a lot of free time. I want to spend more time with Xiaobao."
"So Qi Yue is just going to ignore it?"
Han Mingyu paused.
Qi Mingxuan looked at him and frowned when she saw that he didn't speak. "Han Mingyu, although Qi Yue is sensible, you can't just ignore his feelings. I brought Xiaobao to Sydney for further studies, and I already felt quite sorry for him. You also promised me that you would stay with him in Beicheng."
“I talked to him before I came.” Han Mingyu looked at Qi Mingxuan and sighed softly. “Don’t worry, he doesn’t care that much about whether his old father is with him or not right now.”
Qi Mingxuan asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"
"Now he's only thinking about Fu Siyan's youngest daughter. On the wedding day, in order to coax the little girl into marrying him when she grows up, he even personally smeared me, the old father!"
Qi Mingxuan: "...Impossible, our Qi Yue would never do that."
Han Mingyu was both amused and exasperated. "Do you think I would go so far as to slander my own son?"
Qi Mingxuan: "..."
"That kid is precocious. He took those innocent jokes from the little girl seriously." Han Mingyu scooped up a spoonful of millet porridge and fed it to little Han Xi.
Qi Mingxuan looked at him thoughtfully.
After feeding his daughter the last spoonful of millet porridge, Han Mingyu wiped her mouth with a tissue and then lifted her down from the baby chair. "Little one, go play by yourself in the living room, okay? Daddy and Mommy have something to talk about."
"Okay!" Little Han Xi nodded, turned around and trotted away happily.
Only Han Mingyu and Qi Mingxuan remained at the dining table.
"Xiaoxuan, do you not like me coming?"
Qi Mingxuan frowned slightly. "I didn't mean that. I just think we should treat both children fairly. Qi Yue lacked parental companionship since he was a child. Even though he is a big kid now, he must still hope to receive more attention and love from his parents. I just hope that during my time abroad, you, as his father, can spend more time with him."
"I understand," Han Mingyu said. "Then I'll go back tomorrow."
"Okay." Qi Mingxuan said, "You can bring him over again when you have a holiday later."
"good."
That's settled then.
The next day, when Xiao Hanxi learned that her father was going back, she insisted on taking him to the airport.
Qi Mingxuan knew that she was also very reluctant to part with her father.
When they arrived at the airport and parted ways, Qi Mingxuan noticed that Xiao Hanxi's eyes were red.
Her heart softened, and she asked her daughter, "Xiaobao, do you want to go back with Daddy to see your brother?"
Little Hanxi stared at her mother, "Little Bao wants to."
"How about you go back with Dad for a few days this time?"
After thinking for a while, Xiao Hanxi asked, "Is Mom going back too?"
“Mom still has work here and can’t go back for the time being.” Qi Mingxuan patted Xiaobao’s head. “It’s the same if you and Dad go back.”
"Xiao Bao, no!" Xiao Hanxi snuggled into Qi Mingxuan's arms. "Xiao Bao doesn't want to be separated from Mommy."
Although Xiao Hanxi loves her father and wants to see her brother, she loves her mother the most and doesn't want to be separated from her at all.
“Xiao Bao is still young, she doesn’t want to be separated from you, so let her stay with you,” Han Mingyu said. “You guys go back, I’m going in.”
"Let me know you've arrived safely," Qi Mingxuan said.
"Yes, I will." Han Mingyu looked at her, his eyes deep. "Xiaoxuan, take good care of yourself and your daughter."
Qi Mingxuan smiled slightly at him, "You too, spend more time with your son."
"Um."
Han Mingyu pulled his suitcase and turned to walk into the airport.
Qi Mingxuan carried her daughter into the car.
When they met again, Qi Yue was already on winter break.
For the next few years, they maintained this pattern of interaction.
They haven't become lovers yet, but their relationship is growing closer every day.
Those past pains have gradually faded away as I've spent time with my two children as they grow up.
They did not start any new relationships, maintaining an unspoken understanding between them.
Perhaps, one day in the future, their destined match will quietly arrive.
Han Mingyu firmly believes that such a day will come.
…
The day after the wedding, Fu Siyan and Shen Qingshu, along with their three children, Jiang Yuelan, and Jin Huaimin, took a family photo on the Gold Coast.
This time, the beach was filled with laughter and joy, and the photographer's lens captured one beautiful moment after another.
At some point, Shen Qingshu nestled in Fu Siyan's arms, and in a daze, she would recall the scene from that year when she wore a wedding dress, held Fu Siyu's hand, and cooperated with the photo shoot with mixed feelings.
Now, revisiting this beach, everything has been arranged perfectly.
She thought that for the rest of her life, she would continue to be happy and content like this.
I also hope that her family and friends will always be safe, happy, and have everything go smoothly.
I happened to open my WeChat Moments and saw Wen Jingxi's post from that morning.
It's a photo of Song Lanyin and Xiaoyue sleeping soundly together.
Caption: [Those I love, and those who love me, are all here.]
Shen Qingshu gave it a thumbs up and continued scrolling down.
Soon I saw Qiao Xingjia's WeChat Moments.
Qiao Xingjia posted a photo of the sunrise.
In the photo, three hands are clasped together.
Caption: [Experiencing the happiness and joy of a family at someone else's wedding! Luckily, we have one too!]
Shen Qingshu gave it a thumbs up and continued scrolling down—
Shao Qing posted a picture of herself making a peace sign.
Caption: [Even though I got vomited on, I've successfully found a partner!]
Shen Qingshu was somewhat surprised, but upon closer reflection, she felt it was an expected outcome.
Shao Qing pursued Chi Guo'er for nearly two years, but Chi Guo'er never agreed to be with him, not because she didn't like him, but because she wanted to wait until her career was more stable.
In July, after meeting all the evaluation criteria, Shen Qingshu officially promoted Chi Guoer to Executive Vice President of Huanxing, a position second only to her.
With a stable career and a fulfilling love life, Chi Guo'er's life is complete.
Shen Qingshu liked the post and continued scrolling down—
I saw a screenshot of a video call posted by Qi Mingxuan on her WeChat Moments yesterday.
Han Xi's adorable smile and Qi Yue's handsome face.
The little girl had gained a bit more weight since the last time she saw her, and her rosy cheeks were incredibly cute.
Qi Mingxuan captioned the post: [Xiao Bao video-chatted with her brother, praising how handsome he looked in a suit.]
Shen Qingshu smiled and gave it a thumbs up.
Just as she tried to continue scrolling, her waist was grabbed by the man's large hand.
A deep male voice came from beside me: "Don't look at your phone, look up at me."
Shen Qingshu was taken aback and looked up at Fu Siyan.
The man lowered his head and kissed him—
'Crack'.
The photographer captured this scene.
Later, the painting was hung in their master bedroom and named: Eternity.
