Huo Beixiao looked at her little expression and seemed to know what she was thinking.
The upward curve of the corners of the lips widened.
He leaned close to Yang Qiaoqiao's ear and said in a seductive, deep voice, "I'll carry you to take a bath."
"Cough cough!"
Yang Qiaoqiao quickly cleared her throat to cover up her embarrassment.
She looked at the man with a pair of watery eyes and said sternly, "Just taking a bath, nothing else."
Huo Beixiao's smile widened, and he nodded with a muffled chuckle.
Yang Qiaoqiao: ...
She always felt that this man was up to something.
She couldn't help but emphasize again, "Only proper baths."
"Okay." Huo Beixiao's voice was filled with undisguised laughter.
Yang Qiaoqiao: ...
As she soaked in the water, the comfortably warm water enveloped her entire body, seemingly dispelling all the fatigue of the day.
She couldn't help but close her eyes and let out a comfortable sigh.
The next moment, I suddenly felt a huge object enter the water, and the water level in the bathtub rose a lot.
Yang Qiaoqiao opened her eyes and saw the handsome, smiling face of the man opposite her.
She realized what was happening and wanted to say that the man didn't keep his word.
But she had already been pulled into the man's arms, and then his deep, magnetic voice entered her ears again, "Wife, you only said you wanted to take a proper bath, you didn't say I couldn't help you bathe."
Later, when that scoundrel Huo Beixiao helped her wash, it gradually turned into, "Wife, let me wash the inside for you too."
Yang Qiaoqiao: ...
When Yang Qiaoqiao finally couldn't take it anymore and drifted off to sleep, she was still vaguely thinking about how this man was like iron, not only was his whole body stiff, but he also didn't seem to feel tired at all.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Yang Qiaoqiao didn't dare to stay in bed and was still not fully awake.
By the second day of the Lunar New Year, I had no psychological burden and slept until I naturally woke up.
When she got up, she learned that Xia Yuntao and Wang Shuyi were preparing to return to the house in the suburbs.
Knowing that the two elderly people were definitely going to move there, Yang Qiaoqiao didn't try to stop them any further and, together with Huo Beixiao, escorted them over.
After that, the two of them went to the Xu family to pay their respects for the New Year.
Xu Yizhou and Luo Yingzi didn't come to Haicheng for the Spring Festival this year, so Xu's parents inevitably felt that the house was a bit deserted.
Xu's father didn't say anything.
Xu's mother couldn't help but complain, saying that she originally thought that Xu Yizhou would be willing to transfer back to Haicheng to work after he got married.
Even if they don't live with them after returning to Haicheng, they can still visit them often, and when they have children, they can help take care of their children.
But now, Xu Yizhou is married and instead of being transferred to Haicheng, he has been transferred to work in the provincial capital of Sichuan.
I don't know when he will be willing to be transferred back to Haicheng.
Hearing this from the side, Mr. Xu couldn't help but frown and say seriously to Mrs. Xu, "Ren Beixiao and Qiaoqiao finally managed to take some time to come over, why are you nagging them about this?"
"Yizhou and Yingzi didn't come to Haicheng for the New Year because of Yizhou's work, not because the two children didn't want to come back."
Besides, didn't Yizhou tell us that they don't have any plans to have children right now?
"In two years, when they're having children, you'll be almost retired. If you want to help them take care of their kids then, you can go to Sichuan province and do it for them. What's there to complain about?"
Although Xu's father spoke sternly, he was right.
Xu's mother wasn't angry at all. Instead, her eyes lit up. "Old man, you're right. If they really plan to develop their careers in Sichuan Province, then I can just go there when I retire!"
Old man, I didn't expect your idea to be so reliable at this crucial moment!
Hearing Xu's mother's praise, Xu's father couldn't maintain his stern expression any longer, and even couldn't help but boast a little, "Of course, you don't even know who your old man is."
Yang Qiaoqiao couldn't help but laugh as she watched the interaction between Xu's parents.
I just think Xu's mother has a really good personality.
If it were a slightly more sensitive woman, the couple would probably have already started arguing after Mr. Xu said those things.
But Xu's mother not only completely ignored Xu's father's reprimand, but even praised him for giving her a good idea.
The couple not only didn't have any conflicts, but the atmosphere was also exceptionally relaxed.
Huo Beixiao and Yang Qiaoqiao had lunch at the Xu family's house.
After lunch, the two went to the Tong family's house.
Tong's parents are now content with having their granddaughter and no longer care about Tong Xuejiao.
When Yang Qiaoqiao arrived, Tong's parents had already taken their granddaughter out to play, leaving only Tong Xuejiao at home.
But before they even entered the Tong family's gate, they saw Yan Heqing standing outside the courtyard.
Huo Beixiao and Yang Qiaoqiao were both surprised to see Yan Heqing. "Brother Yan, why are you standing here? Aren't you going in?"
Yan Heqing gave a wry smile. "I can't get in."
Huo Beixiao & Yang Qiaoqiao: ...
"Sister Xuejiao hasn't accepted you yet?" Yang Qiaoqiao couldn't help but be a little surprised. Yan Heqing hadn't even won over Tong Xuejiao yet.
Yan Heqing gave another bitter smile. "She said that I used to tease and bully her since she was a child, and she has psychological trauma from it, so she can't accept being with me."
Yan Heqing is extremely depressed right now.
If he had known he would eventually fall for Tong Xuejiao, he should have taken better care of her when they were younger instead of constantly finding ways to tease her.
Yang Qiaoqiao: ...
Has this escalated to the point of causing psychological trauma?
She couldn't help but ask, "And what about last time?"
