Chapter 483 Mother and Daughter Meet
“She wants to see the child.” Ji Lin paused, then added, “But she means to meet at the Qi family’s house.”
"I understand." Han Mingyu forced a bitter smile. "Ask her when would be a good time. I'll have my mom take the two kids to the Qi family's house, and I won't show up. Is that alright?"
Ji Lin nodded. "I'll ask her and tell you later."
"Okay." Han Mingyu held Xiaobao in his arms, feeling both happy for the two children and a wave of uncontrollable tenderness spreading through him.
He thought he would get used to it eventually.
...
The next morning at nine o'clock, Han's mother carried Xiaobao, Yu Jie carried Xiaobao's baby bag, and Qi Yue carried his small backpack. The three of them got into the car.
Han Mingyu personally drove them to the Qi family's house.
Throughout the journey, Qi Yue kept teasing his younger sister.
Little Hanxi sat in her car seat, kicking her chubby little legs happily.
Looking at her beloved granddaughter, Han's mother smiled and said, "Our little darling knows she's going to see her mother, right? Look at her, she's not sleepy at all now, her eyes are wide open!"
Little Hanxi was babbling away, talking to her grandma.
She enjoys interacting with people, and her personality becomes more lively as she gets older.
Han's mother said more than once that Han Xi's personality is like Han Mingyu's when he was a child. She is not afraid of strangers and has a bit of the social gene.
Qi Yue has become increasingly composed.
Han's mother used to worry that he might be a bit insecure and withdrawn due to his family background. But after spending time with him, she gradually discovered that he was a steady and calm person with a lot of opinions. She was sure he would be able to do great things in the future!
Now that things have come to this, Han's mother has given up hope for Han Mingyu's marriage. At least they have a son and a daughter. Even if she remains a bachelor until old age, having descendants is a kind of fulfillment.
...
Upon arriving at the Qi family's residence, Han Mingyu parked the car in the front yard.
Upon hearing the sound of the carriage, Qi Shuanmi and Ji Lin immediately came out to greet them.
Han Mingyu dared not get out of the car. He could only suppress his desire to see Qi Mingxuan and force himself to stay in the car, watching his mother get out with his two children.
Upon seeing them, Qi Yue greeted them proactively: "Uncle Ji, Sister Anmi, Grandpa Qi."
"Our Qi Yue has grown taller again!" Anmi pulled Qi Yue's hand. "Come on, Mom is making you a little cake in the kitchen, let's go find her!"
"good!"
Qi Yue and An Mi were the first to enter the house.
This was the first time Uncle Qi had seen little Han Xi. He walked up to Han's mother, greeted her respectfully, and then looked at little Han Xi.
Little Hanxi stared at Uncle Qi with eyes that looked just like her mother's, showing no shyness whatsoever. After staring at Uncle Qi for a few seconds, she suddenly smiled with her eyes crinkling.
This smile makes her look even more like Qi Mingxuan!
Uncle Qi's eyes immediately reddened, "The young lady really looks just like our young lady!"
Han's mother laughed and said, "Yes, everyone who sees these eyes says they look like Xiaoxuan's, and she's also very smart, just like Xiaoxuan!"
Uncle Qi said respectfully, "Madam Han, please come inside."
"good!"
Han's mother carried little Han Xi and Uncle Qi into the house.
Ji Lin didn't immediately follow him inside, but instead looked at Han Mingyu sitting in the car.
Han Mingyu rested his hands on the steering wheel, looking somewhat forlorn.
Ji Lin walked over and gently knocked on the car window.
Han Mingyu lowered the car window.
"How are you?"
"I'm fine." Han Mingyu forced a smile, pretending nothing was wrong. "I'm leaving now. I'll come back to pick them up later."
"Okay, drive carefully."
Han Mingyu responded and turned the car around.
The extended Rolls-Royce drove away from the Qi family's residence.
Ji Lin watched the car disappear into the distance and sighed helplessly.
...
Inside the house, Qi Zhao took little Han Xi from Han's mother.
He no longer needs crutches to walk independently.
Over the past few months, he has come to his senses.
Because the Han and Qi families still had two children, they would eventually have to maintain contact.
Now that Qi Mingxuan's condition has stabilized and she has started a new life, Qi Zhao no longer dwells on the past.
Xiao Hanxi is not shy with strangers and is willing to be held by anyone.
Qi Zhao hugged her and couldn't help but sigh, "She looks so much like Xiao Xuan."
Han's mother smiled, her eyes welling up with tears, "That's what everyone says."
At this moment, Qi Mingxuan and Anmi Qi Yue came out of the kitchen.
The lively conversation in the living room stopped abruptly.
All eyes turned to Qi Mingxuan.
Qi Mingxuan's gaze fell on Xiao Bao's chubby little face.
She walked over slowly, step by step.
Qi Zhao held little Han Xi in her arms and whispered to her, "Little treasure, this is Mommy."
The baby is only five months old, how could he understand?
But perhaps it was the power of blood ties, but the moment Xiao Bao saw Qi Mingxuan, he seemed to suddenly sense something, and his eyes froze.
She was still holding a teething toy in her hand, and just a second ago she was babbling and gnawing on it. But now that she saw Qi Mingxuan, she stopped chewing and drool was dripping from her open mouth. Her mother's face was reflected in her dark and bright pupils.
Qi Mingxuan stopped and reached out her hand to little Han Xi, "Little Bao, can Mommy hug you?"
Her voice was soft, and her gaze towards the child was filled with expectation yet also a hint of caution.
From birth until now, she has never seen the child or held her.
Five months have passed, and she knows that in Xiao Bao's eyes, she is already a 'stranger'.
She was afraid of scaring Xiaobao, so she didn't dare to pick her up rashly and could only use this clumsy way to coax Xiaobao.
Xiao Bao stared at her for more than half a minute, and no one dared to make a sound.
Qi Mingxuan breathed softly and said gently, "Xiaobao, it's Mommy. Do you recognize my voice? It's Mommy."
Xiao Bao finally blinked her beautiful big eyes, "Eeya~"
She suddenly handed the teething toy, which was covered in saliva, to Qi Mingxuan, and started babbling.
Tears welled up in Qi Mingxuan's eyes as she reached out to take Xiao Bao from her arms.
As soon as Xiao Bao got into his mother's arms, he shoved the teething toy into her mouth, making a "ee-ya, da-da..." sound.
This scene was both funny and heartbreaking.
Qi Mingxuan held Xiaobao and cried uncontrollably. Looking at Xiaobao's innocent and adorable face, she felt deeply guilty and kept saying sorry between sobs.
Qi Zhao's eyes reddened, and she turned around to wipe her eyes.
With tears streaming down her face, Han's mother took out a few tissues and stepped forward to wipe Qi Mingxuan's tears. "Our little treasure recognizes her mother. Mother and daughter are connected at heart. Little treasure knows her mother's suffering. She won't blame her mother. Xiaoxuan, let's not cry anymore."
Qi Mingxuan looked at Han's mother, and all her unspoken words ultimately boiled down to a simple "I'm sorry" and "thank you."
Han's mother shook her head and said, "Your relationship with Mingyu is over, but you still have two children. We can still be a family, okay?"
Qi Mingxuan lowered her head and nodded gently.
Han's mother wiped away her tears, "Alright, everyone, let's not cry on this joyous day of reunion. Look how dumbfounded Xiaobao is."
Yes, little Hanxi doesn't understand whether the adults are happy or sad when they are crying and laughing.
Their babies aren't so complicated; they cry when they cry and laugh when they laugh—how simple and happy they are!
Hmm, being a baby is so much fun!
...
A Cantonese restaurant in Beicheng.
The waiter led Yu Changze to a private room, knocked on the door, and opened it, saying, "Mr. Yu, please come in."
"Thank you," Yu Changze said, and went into the private room.
Sitting at the dining table, Yu Yashi looked at him, her serene face showing a hint of reproach, "Brother, I've been waiting for you for a full half hour."
Yu Changze sat down, picked up a hot towel from the table and wiped his hands. "Sorry, I was so engrossed in drawing the storyboard that I forgot the time."
"Every time you get into work, you forget everything else! Dude, I'm not trying to be mean, but you're 29 years old. If you keep going like this, you'll never get a wife."
Yu Changze smiled calmly, "Now that you've found someone yourself, you're free to criticize me?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Yu Yashi's cheeks flushed. "Teacher Wen and I are only in the acquaintance stage; we haven't officially become a couple yet!"
