Chapter 490 Beware of Infertility
"Xiaoxuan, these are nutritional supplements that Grandpa and Grandma asked me to bring. They are very concerned about your health and repeatedly told you to keep them."
Qi Mingxuan looked at Han's mother with a helpless expression, "You sent a lot of nutritional supplements last time, we couldn't finish them all."
"Eat slowly, you'll finish eventually." Han's mother put down her things, took Qi Mingxuan's hand, and gently patted the back of her hand. "Keep these as a token of the elders' goodwill, so they can rest assured."
Qi Mingxuan felt somewhat helpless, but since Han's mother had already said so, she couldn't refuse any longer.
Although she and Han Mingyu were divorced, the elders of the Han family still treated her as well as before, and she didn't want to be polite and distant and hurt their feelings.
Qi Mingxuan smiled gently, "Then please tell my grandparents thank you for me."
Han's mother was very happy, "Your willingness to accept it is better than you saying thank you a thousand times!"
Qi Zhao carried the baby over and greeted Han's mother.
Han's mother smiled and nodded to Qi Zhao.
She hadn't seen her grandson for two days and missed him terribly. She eagerly reached out to him, saying, "Little baby, Grandma wants to hug you."
Xiao Bao was chewing on a teething toy when she heard a familiar sound. She looked at Han's mother and handed her the drool-covered toy, making a "tap tap" sound.
This means she wants to share her snacks with Han's mother.
Han's mother laughed, "Grandma won't eat, but Xiao Bao will!"
Xiao Bao didn't understand, and just kept putting the teething stick back into his mouth and chewing on it diligently, without saying anything about wanting his grandma to hold him.
“Xiao Bao is very close to his uncle!” Mother Han said with a smile. “Xiao Bao is usually very attached to Ming Yu at the Han family, especially when he is fussy at night. No one can soothe him except Ming Yu. Since Xiao Bao was born, Ming Yu has not gone out for social events.”
As Han's mother spoke, her expression stiffened slightly, and she suddenly realized that she might have said too much.
Qi Zhao's expression instantly became somewhat unnatural. It wasn't that he was unwilling, but rather that he was worried about Qi Mingxuan...
For a moment, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
Both Han's mother and Qi Zhao subconsciously looked at Qi Mingxuan.
Qi Mingxuan could see their concerns.
But he is, after all, the father of two children, and she can't keep running away because of her personal emotions.
Children will grow up eventually, and even if parents are not destined to be husband and wife, normal communication is still essential.
Qi Mingxuan held Xiaobao's soft little hand and smiled slightly, "It's a good thing that Xiaobao and his father have a good relationship."
Upon hearing this, both Qi Zhao and Han's mother were startled.
Does this mean Qi Mingxuan is no longer rejecting Han Mingyu?
Qi Zhao looked at her younger sister with a hint of relief in her eyes.
He looked at Han's mother and said, "The birth of Xiao Bao has made Han Mingyu grow up a lot."
Han's mother's eyes welled up with tears. She had seen how her son had endured the past six months.
But it would be a lie for my mother to say she wasn't heartbroken.
However, Han's mother did not speak up for her son. She only said, "Girls are more delicate, so Mingyu should be raised in a more refined manner."
"Xiao Bao is indeed well taken care of." Actually, Qi Mingxuan is not very good at taking care of children. Qi Yue was mostly taken care of by nannies. As for Xiao Bao, she didn't even look at her once after Xiao Bao was born before leaving.
I still feel guilty.
So these past two days, while looking at her two children, Qi Mingxuan kept telling herself that for their sake, she had to face life with a positive and optimistic attitude. The past could not be changed, but the future was still long. Besides herself, Qi Mingxuan's life also included her older brother, her children, and her friends.
These past two days, she has devoted herself entirely to spending time with her two children. Especially when she looks into Xiao Bao's innocent eyes, she always feels that her fragile and withered heart is slowly coming back to life.
She thought, perhaps this is the meaning of life.
The new life is growing little by little, and the dark years of the past will be covered up and healed little by little.
...
In the courtyard, the rear door of the seven-seater SUV was open.
Han Mingyu got out of the car and took Xiaobao from Qi Zhao, saying, "You've worked hard these past two days."
Qi Zhao glanced at him and said, "I'm the child's uncle, don't talk to me like that."
Upon hearing this, Han Mingyu smiled slightly.
Qi Zhao raised her hand and patted his shoulder, "Being both a father and a mother for the past five months must have been tough, right?"
Han Mingyu was slightly taken aback, and the next second he heard Qi Zhao say in a low voice, "Xiao Xuan will get better, and our lives will get better too."
Han Mingyu lowered his head, his Adam's apple bobbing rapidly as he hurriedly swallowed the sudden surge of bitterness.
He put Xiaobao in the car seat and fastened the seat belt.
Xiao Bao was sleepy, so Han Mingyu put a pacifier in her mouth. She took it in her mouth, moved her lips a few times, and soon closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Han Mingyu covered her with a small blanket, stood up, and looked up at the front door.
Han's mother held Qi Mingxuan's hand, and the atmosphere between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was still harmonious and warm.
Qi Mingxuan smiled slightly and nodded in response, not knowing what Han's mother said.
Han Mingyu stared at it greedily, his gaze fixed on it, unable to look away.
Han's mother turned and walked towards the car.
Qi Mingxuan turned her gaze and unexpectedly met Han Mingyu's eyes.
Their eyes met so suddenly that both of them were clearly taken aback for a moment.
Han Mingyu's breath caught in his throat. His hand, gripping the car door, quickly became damp with sweat, and his fingertips trembled uncontrollably.
The image of Qi Mingxuan losing control of herself that day flashed through my mind.
Han Mingyu's heart skipped a beat. He panicked and avoided eye contact, then quickly turned and jumped into the car.
Qi Mingxuan's illness has just improved, so we must not let her see him again and make it worse!
Han Mingyu's hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, veins bulging, and his head was bowed very low.
Seeing Han Mingyu's reaction, Han's mother sighed helplessly, said goodbye to Qi Zhao, and then bent down to get into the car.
Qi Yue went to school, and the Han family's driver would pick him up directly from school after school in the afternoon.
Qi Zhao waved to Han's mother.
The vehicle turned around and drove out of Qijia.
Qi Zhao withdrew her gaze and turned to look at Qi Mingxuan.
Qi Mingxuan stood at the door, looking at Qi Zhao, and gently curled the corners of her lips.
She still appeared calm.
Qi Zhao walked over and gently patted the top of her head with his large hand. "You saw him?"
"Hmm?" Qi Mingxuan's voice was gentle. "He takes very good care of the child."
“Yes, I used to have a deep prejudice against him. Now that I see how much he has changed, I’m actually quite surprised.” Qi Zhao paused for a moment, then added, “The elders of the Han family are all kind and reasonable. In the future, let the children come back to live more often. If you’re busy, I’ll take care of them.”
Qi Mingxuan looked at her older brother and raised an eyebrow slightly: "Brother, you're not getting any younger. Shouldn't you start thinking about your own marriage?"
Qi Zhao: "...Why are you suddenly urging me to get married?"
"Seeing you taking care of your baby these past two days, I think you'll be a great dad."
"I just got back to the company, I don't have the energy for it now." Qi Zhao waved his hand, "Let's talk about it in a couple of years."
“You’ll be forty in two years.” Qi Mingxuan frowned. “Men’s physical condition declines after forty, so be careful of infertility.”
Qi Zhao: "..."
…
Xiacheng is a coastal city in the south, and summer is the peak tourist season.
The Twin Towers Hotel, which boasts the best ocean views, is impossible to book a room on the day of arrival in the summer without advance reservations.
Even so, Wen Jingxi still came without hesitation!
As Wen Jingxi stepped out of the taxi, the heat wave hitting him caused him to frown.
He strode into the hotel lobby, pulling his suitcase with one hand and holding his phone to his ear with the other. "I'm at the hotel. What's Song Lanyin's room number?"
