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, "You're back?"
The time when both husband and wife get off work is uncertain.
Sometimes she is busy, sometimes he is busy.
The two of them were used to each other coming back in the middle of the night.
The light was dim. Huo Xingzhou bent down and looked at Qiao Xi who was woken up from her sleep and asked softly, "Why is this brat sleeping here?"
"He had been waiting for me in the Chinese medicine clinic for most of the day. When he came back, he was already lightly asleep. He was afraid of waking up his sister, so he said he would sleep with me first."
It turns out that he has eight hundred tricks up his sleeve.
"I'll carry him over."
Huo Xingzhou stretched out his hand and was about to hold the little thing in his arms, but was stopped by Qiao Xi.
"Don't bother, 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. No one will notice if you carry him over like this."
Children are sleeping very soundly, and they won't be woken up even if they are picked up at this time. 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 went into the bathroom.
There was the sound of water inside.
Qiao Xi was no longer sleepy and wanted to wait for Huo Xingzhou to finish before going to sleep together. She combed her hair and leaned against the head of the bed, 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 here so late today?"
In the past year, Huo Xingzhou has rarely been out so late. Qiao Xi couldn't help but ask.
"There are a lot of things going on in the company, and I think we can solve them all if we put them together."
"Don't get too tired. There's always work to be done."
Huo Xingzhou lifted the quilt and lay down, saying softly: "You have to believe this yourself. There is no end to the work, you should get off work at a certain time."
Qiao Xi smiled sheepishly: "Sometimes I can't bear to see patients waiting outside and not getting their appointment number. I can only open a few on the spot, hoping that they don't miss out."
"Some people's conditions are very urgent, while others are not. It's inevitable that they will take advantage of your kindness..."
"I just need to live up to my conscience, 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 over, approached her and said slowly: "Come, let me touch your conscience."
"What are you doing?"
"I don't want to sleep, do something else."
"Huo Xingzhou..."
Qiao Xi couldn't stand his nonsense.
It was not a firm rejection of his advances.
The two of them were in a mess, and she finally came to her senses when she was gasping for breath and exhausted. She wondered why this man wanted to take the child away from the beginning. 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, they became more harmonious in this regard. Qiao Xi would also cooperate with him in the new skills he learned. No matter how serious a man is, this aspect is still natural.
Even Huo Xingzhou is no exception.
The close fit with the skin made him feel at ease.
"There are still... five minutes left." Qiao Xi reminded in a broken voice.
"I know."
He was troubled for half an hour.
What a man says in bed cannot be believed.
A lot of nonsense.
Half an hour had passed, and they were still in high spirits, so they naturally didn't finish. 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 felt dry and refreshed, and there was no trace of the man by her side.
Sometimes I really admire his physical strength. After a busy day outside, he has to work until late at night when he gets home, but he is still refreshed and able to get up early.
Is this a talent?
Qiao Xi stretched lazily and felt a little sore 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 workload 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 capital.
"This is Qianqian's favorite doll. She has to hold it when she goes to sleep. Otherwise she will cry easily. This is her favorite little skirt..." Aunt Qian took care of every detail and stuffed everything into the suitcase for the child.
"This is Ah Che's favorite book, and the water cup he is used to. This child is loyal, and things he is used to will not go bad, unless they are broken. He looks like he has the same personality as the young master, and I don't know which little girl will get the gift 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 the two of them with their small quilts.
"Aunt Qian, don't bring so many things. The capital has prepared a lot of things..." Qiao Xi reminded softly, "You are almost spoiling the two children."
"Alas, the things in the capital are not as good as what we are used to at home. The young master has prepared a private jet, so it is not a problem to bring as many things as possible. I can just ask the bodyguards to help with the moving. The two babies will be gone for a month. If my family didn't need me, I would have gone with them."
Aunt Qian’s work focus used to be on Huo Xingzhou, but now the two babies are more important to her.
She really wanted to go to the imperial capital.
It’s a pity that I can’t go.
Qiao Xi packed her clothes, and she had even less 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 are not just 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 wealth.
For a moment, countless people were jealous.
These two children are not only children of the Huo family, but they may also be heirs of the Zhong family.
As for the old lady of the Zhong family’s objection, that’s useless!
The old lady's health could not hold up and she passed away two years ago. Now the capital has Zhong Yi who has the final say!
"Qianqian, Ache. Hurry up and pack your things, because we'll be leaving soon! Don't come crying to me when we get to the capital, saying you forgot to bring something." Qiao Xi gave a final reminder.
She looked at Qianqian who was running up and down busy moving things and suddenly laughed out loud.
This child seems to want to move the whole house over.
