Chapter 1021 Extra 19: Let me touch your conscience
When Qiao Xi heard the noise, she opened her sleepy eyes and yawned.
She reached out her hand to wipe the moisture from the corners of her eyes, and saw a familiar figure. She asked with a bit of sleepiness, "Are you back?"
Both the couple have uncertain working hours.
Sometimes she is busy, sometimes he is busy.
The two have become accustomed to each other coming back in the middle of the night.
The lights were dim. Huo Xingzhou bent down and looked at Qiao Xi, who had been woken up from her sleep, and asked softly, "Why is this brat sleeping here?"
"He waited for me at the Chinese medicine clinic for most of the day. When he came back, he was already asleep. He was afraid of waking up his sister, so he said he would sleep with me first."
He is indeed very thoughtful.
"I'll carry him over."
Huo Xingzhou stretched out his hand to hold the little thing in his arms, but was stopped by Qiao Xi.
"Don't bother, just let him sleep here with us. The bed is so big, it's more than enough for a child."
"It's okay, he's soundly asleep. We won't be discovered if we carry him like this."
Children are very deep sleepers, and even if they are picked up at this time, they will not wake up. Huo Xingzhou insisted on taking the child back to his room, and Qiao Xi had no choice.
Just don't know whether to laugh or cry.
After a while, Huo Xingzhou came back.
Qiao Xi said softly, "Hurry up and wash up and go to bed. It's getting late. You still have to work tomorrow."
"Um."
Huo Xingzhou didn't delay for long.
He took off his coat and put it aside, then picked up his pajamas and walked into the bathroom.
There was a sound of water coming from inside.
Qiao Xi was no longer sleepy and wanted to wait for Huo Xingzhou to finish before going to bed together. She straightened her hair and leaned against the headboard, covering her lips with her hand and yawning softly.
Huo Xingzhou moved quickly and came out with water vapor all over his body.
He wiped his hair and put the towel aside.
"Have you finished washing? Why are you so late today?"
In the past year, Huo Xingzhou has rarely been this late. Qiao Xi couldn't help but ask.
"There are a lot of things going on in the company, and they've piled up and I want to solve them all."
"Don't get too tired. There's always work to do."
Huo Xingzhou lifted the quilt and lay down in it, saying softly, "You have to believe this yourself. There is no end to the work, and you should leave work when the time comes."
Qiao Xi smiled sheepishly, "Sometimes I can't bear to see patients waiting outside, unable to get an appointment. I can only give them a few appointments on the spot, hoping they don't end up disappointed."
"Some people's conditions are very critical, while others are not. They will inevitably take advantage of your kindness..."
"As long as I can live with my conscience, that's all I need. What do you think?"
Qiao Xi only wants to do things with a clear conscience.
Huo Xingzhou laughed. Isn’t it her stubbornness that he likes?
He leaned forward, approached her and said slowly: "Come, let me touch your conscience."
"What are you doing?"
"I don't want to sleep, I want to do something else."
"Huo Xingzhou..."
Qiao Xi couldn't resist his dirty talk.
It wasn't a firm rejection of his advances at all.
The two of them were in a mess, and she finally came to her senses when she was panting and exhausted. She wondered why the man wanted to take the child away in the first place. Because he had planned it all along.
"Don't make a fuss. You must go to bed in half an hour."
Qiao Xi's cheeks flushed as she looked at the ceiling above her head.
"knew."
Huo Xingzhou's voice was sexy, and he lowered his head and worked hard.
After having a child, the two of them became more harmonious in this regard. Qiao Xi would also cooperate with the new skills he learned. No matter how serious a man was, this aspect was still natural.
Even Huo Xingzhou is no exception.
The fit of his skin made him feel very safe.
"There are still... five minutes left." Qiao Xi reminded in a broken voice.
"I know."
He was troubled for half an hour.
You can’t believe anything a man says in bed.
A lot of nonsense.
Half an hour passed, and the excitement was so intense that it naturally didn't end. Qiao Xi also forgot to check the time, and he didn't know where he had thrown his phone.
The next day, her biological clock woke her up.
She was dry and the man was no longer around her.
Sometimes I really admire his physical strength. He is busy outside all day and has to work until late at night when he gets home, but he is still refreshed and can get up early.
Is this a talent?
Qiao Xi stretched and felt a little sore all over, but not tired.
When people are extremely tired, they will enter a deep sleep. She didn't sleep for long but her sleep quality was very good, so she was still able to cope with the heavy work today.
After these few days, I will go to the capital next week.
…
A few days later.
The Huo family started to get busy again.
Aunt Qian is packing her luggage for the trip to the imperial capital.
"This is Qianqian's favorite doll. She has to hold it while sleeping. Otherwise she will cry easily. This is her favorite little skirt..." Aunt Qian packed everything into the suitcase for the child, taking care of every detail.
"This is Ah Che's favorite book, and the water cup he's used to. This kid is very loyal, and things he's used to won't break, unless they're broken. He seems to have the same personality as the young master, and I don't know which little girl will get this in the future."
There were two suitcases in front of Aunt Qian, one was Qianqian's and the other was Ache's.
If Qiao Xi hadn't stopped her, she would have stuffed their small quilt in there.
"Aunt Qian, don't bring so many things. The capital has already prepared a lot..." Qiao Xi reminded softly, "You're almost spoiling the two children."
"Oh my, the things in the capital are not as good as what we're used to at home. The young master has prepared a private plane, so it won't be a problem to bring as many things as we want. We can just ask the bodyguards to help move them. The two babies will be gone for a month. If my family didn't need me, I would have gone with them too."
Aunt Qian’s work focus used to be on Huo Xingzhou, but now the two babies weigh more heavily in her heart.
She really wanted to go to the imperial capital.
It’s a pity that I can’t go.
Qiao Xi was packing her clothes, and she had even fewer things to take with her.
A few sets of clothes and gold needles. The villa in the imperial capital was often cleaned and had all kinds of daily necessities. She would live there when she arrived in the imperial capital, so she didn't need to bring any trivial things.
However, the two children will be taken to live with the Zhong family.
The godparents recognized by the two families were not casual relatives.
Instead, Zhong Yi held a family recognition banquet and solemnly acknowledged them. He even declared that if he had no children in the future, these two children would inherit the Zhong family's property.
For a moment, countless people were jealous.
These two children are not only children of the Huo family, but may also be heirs of the Zhong family.
As for the Zhong family’s old man’s objection, that’s useless!
The old man’s health couldn’t hold up and he passed away two years ago. Now the emperor has the final say!
"Qianqian, Ache. Hurry up and pack your things, we will be leaving soon! Don't come crying to me in the capital saying you forgot to bring something." Qiao Xi gave a final reminder.
She looked at Qianqian who was running up and down busily moving things, and suddenly laughed out loud.
This child seems to want to move the whole family there.
