Chapter 73 He Can't Leave Back
Jiang Tang took the initiative for once. She sat astride the man and leaned over to kiss Qin Xiao. With the girl's strength, Qin Xiao fell back obediently and lay on his back on the sofa.
The two bodies fit together perfectly, completely entangled. Qin Xiao's hands clasped the girl's waist and rubbed it repeatedly. Jiang Tang imitated the usual behavior of men, holding his face with both hands, gently moving his lips, and licking and entangled tentatively with the tip of his tongue.
The girl's proactive look was really addictive, making people so obsessed that they couldn't extricate themselves. Qin Xiao completely cooperated with the girl's random movements and followed her in everything.
The hands at her waist were trying to tear away the obstruction in a hurry. Jiang Tang opened her eyes, which were filled with misty light. Her hand moved down from Qin Xiao's face, grasping the man's strong hand, and her soft fingertips touched the throbbing blue blood vessels.
"Qin Xiao, don't move."
The girl's voice was charming and broken, without any offensive power. Qin Xiao cleared his throat and his rough fingers stopped in restraint.
Realizing that the man had obeyed, Jiang Tang's watery eyes smiled. She let go of Qin Xiao's hand and retaliated by putting her two hands under the man's clothes, touching him randomly without any rules.
Feeling the irregular touch of the little girl's fingertips, Qin Xiao's lower abdomen tightened instantly. He swallowed continuously, breathing heavily, his dark eyes darkened as he stared at the prey that was unaware of the danger.
"Jiang Tang, take it out..."
Jiang Tang moved her fingers upwards, recalling the man's reckless look in her mind. She pursed her lips, and her fingertips touched the man's thick and hard chest.
With his wrist grasped by the man, Jiang Tang stared at the man beneath him with a smug look on his face.
The next moment, Jiang Tang's hand felt like it was burned, and she quickly tried to pull it back, but the man held her down and prevented her from moving.
"…You're going too far…"
Qin Xiao frowned and said nothing. He straightened his body, pinched the girl's waist with his hands, quickly stood up from the sofa, and walked upstairs with the girl in his arms.
Jiang Tang wrapped her legs around the man subconsciously, and then realized something and wanted to stay away from Qin Xiao, her ears turned red.
Qin Xiao simply lifted the girl's buttocks and quickly climbed up the stairs in just a few steps. He pushed the door open hastily and fell onto the bed with the girl in his arms.
Jiang Tang's back finally touched the soft quilt.
Qin Xiao supported his body, and felt a glaring red in his eyes. His big hands began to untie the girl's clothes.
The man's rough fingers were rarely clumsy, and he untied the clothes very slowly. Jiang Tang frowned, stared at Qin Xiao's clothes, and swallowed.
"Qin Xiao, I don't want you to take off your clothes... Can you please take care of yourself..."
"…Don't go crazy."
Qin Xiao paused his hand movements, stared at the little girl under him who was not looking at him with his dark eyes, raised his thin lips slightly, and uttered a hoarse "hmm".
He stood up and half-knelt in front of Jiang Tang, taking off his clothes casually.
Jiang Tang blinked and turned his head away again.
Qin Xiao leaned down again and kissed the little girl tenderly, but it was not enough. The little girl said herself that she was only his.
Just the thought of it makes the man's body unable to suppress his excitement.
"Let me touch you..."
He held the little girl's hand and held it against his body. When his skin touched the girl's tender fingertips, he couldn't help but tense and tremble.
Touching the man's hard and hot body, Jiang Tang retracted her fingertips, saying one thing and thinking another.
"I'm just retaliating. You took the initiative."
This sounds like a scumbag. She neither takes the initiative nor refuses, but her hand obediently follows the man's hand.
Qin Xiao lay on the girl's neck, and said hoarsely with a smile, "Well, I took the initiative."
The man held the little girl's hand, and there was no resistance in those watery eyes. His dark pupils deepened slightly, and he held the little girl's hand all the way down.
Jiang Tang's eyes widened. She tried to pull her hand back as it was burned, but the man held it still.
The man in the neck was panting heavily, emitting a tender and charming hot breath, and his voice was incredibly hoarse.
"Jiang Tang...Tangtang..."
His voice was seductive, his straight nose rubbed against the girl's neck, and his thin lips rubbed against her soft skin.
Jiang Tang only felt his hands were numb and trembling, as if he was being controlled by the man like a robot.
Her heart was pounding like thunder. The unprecedented stimulation corroded her brain. Her mind went blank and chaotic to the point of brain freeze.
Qin Xiao straightened his body and rubbed his nose against the little girl's cheek.
Jiang Tang's eyes dimmed a little, her chest heaving violently, she tilted her head, a little dazed.
His eyes unconsciously glanced at the time on the bedside table, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.
She clenched her fingertips and accused in a soft voice, "Qin Xiao! It's already past twelve o'clock!"
Qin Xiao held his wife in his arms, without any reaction, only a low "hmm".
Jiang Tang took a breath and grabbed Qin Xiao's ear, "You...you have been doing this for the past two years?"
The girl's voice was soft and sweet. Qin Xiao didn't react at first, but when he heard what the girl said, his chest began to vibrate uncontrollably, until a wanton laugh burst out of the man's throat.
He glanced at the time and it was indeed past twelve o'clock. It was already the new year.
The little girl was right, there was an unreserved smile in the man's eyes.
Jiang Tang heard the man's hoarse and hearty laugh, which was completely different from the man who always suppressed his emotions in the past.
She exhaled softly, her heart softened, and she whispered softly, "Qin Xiao, Happy New Year."
As soon as Jiang Tang finished speaking, the hand on her waist tightened instantly, and a man's hoarse and magnetic voice was heard in her ears.
"Happy New Year."
"Jiang Tang, I'll give you whatever you want."
Jiang Tang turned sideways, pressed her lips against the man's forehead, rubbed it lingeringly, and said with a smile, "Then I..."
"Now I just want to sleep."
She pinched the man's ear and said softly, "Okay."
The smile in the man's dark eyes deepened, and he held the little girl in his arms, saying in a low, hoarse voice, "Okay."
Jiang Tang raised her lips slightly and noticed the hand on her waist loosened. She turned sideways and actively burrowed into the man's arms, closing her eyes.
"Qin Xiao, good night."
The little girl closed her eyes and fell asleep. In the darkness, the man kept his eyes open, tracing the outline of the little girl over and over again with his fingers, but he could never see enough.
He pressed his thin lips against the girl's lips, then moved away for fear of disturbing her. The man could not control himself at all, and kissed the girl's face, then pressed his lips against hers.
"Qin Xiao!"
After hearing the girl's half-asleep complaints, the man finally stopped his unlimited harassment and held her in his arms insatiably.
I couldn't bear to fall asleep, so I just kept staring at it.
How lucky he is.
Early the next morning, when Jiang Tang woke up, she came face to face with the handsome face in front of her.
She stared at the sleeping face of the man, and slowly poked Qin Xiao's face with her fingers.
This didn't even wake anyone up. Jiang Tang pulled the corners of his lips helplessly. He didn't know what time this guy went to bed yesterday, but it was definitely not early.
Jiang Tang had no intention of waking him up. She slowly backed away, propped herself up and tried to sit up. She slowly tightened her hands around her waist, and the man who had just been sleeping suddenly opened his eyes.
Jiang Tang tilted his head and looked at him, "Let go."
Qin Xiao moved, held the person in his arms again and rubbed him for a while before letting go.
Jiang Tang wrinkled her nose, turned over and got out of bed, staring at the man on the bed and accusing him.
"Qin Xiao, I'll get up first, you can go down later."
Last night, Mom and Dad took Chuyang and the others away. Well, there must have been some misunderstanding.
She has to be the first to break the doubt!
Qin Xiao nodded expressionlessly.
Jiang Tang changed her clothes, stared at the marks on her neck, carefully put on a scarf, and glared at the man on the bed.
"Qin Xiao, don't kiss me again before we go back."
The man who just said he would agree to anything the girl asked him to do, wrote a blank check, closed his eyes and said nothing.
Jiang Tang stared at the man pretending to sleep, walked to the bed angrily, and grabbed the man's face fiercely.
He snorted, then turned around and walked out.
Sure enough, in the living room downstairs, Zhou's father and mother had already started making tea on the sofa.
When he saw the young lady coming down, his eyes looked a little strange, but he didn't say anything.
Jiang Tang breathed a sigh of relief. She was indeed wise.
After a while, Qin Xiao came down. When Jiang Tang saw the man, he clenched his hands into fists and wanted to rush up and beat him up.
Zhou's father and mother naturally also saw the scratches from behind Qin Xiao's ears to his neck. They were stunned for a moment, and their eyes moved between their daughter and Qin Xiao.
That look made it seem as if Jiang Tang had forced Qin Xiao, an innocent and decent woman, upon him.
Mother Zhou blinked her eyes. Qin Xiao looked tall and strong, but she didn't expect that the one who was so strong and powerful was her delicate and weak daughter.
Jiang Tang's hands were still a little numb, but he was speechless and could only try to kill Qin Xiao with his eyes.
Staring at the little girl's eyes that seemed a little angry, the man frowned, walked over expressionlessly, and looked at her inquiringly.
Jiang Tang snorted, turned his head and walked towards the dining table, not wanting to talk to Qin Xiao.
Zhou's father and mother looked at each other, then smiled and took Qin Chuyang and Zhou An over.
From the time Qin Xiao went downstairs until he finished his meal, Qin Chuyang kept staring at his brother with an accusing look.
Qin Xiao completely ignored him, and the boy became even angrier.
After finishing his meal, Qin Chuyang sat on the sofa with Jiang Tang. He ran to Jiang Tang with his short legs, stood on tiptoes and looked at Jiang Tang with a pouty mouth.
"Sister-in-law, kiss."
Qin Xiao: ...
The man's face instantly turned dark enough to drip water.
Jiang Tang raised her eyes, glanced at the expressionless man, and raised her lips slightly.
Meeting the man's eyes, she lowered her head with a smile, then shook her head gently.
"Chu Yang is a man, no need to kiss him."
The girl refused.
Qin Xiao stared at the girl's smiling face. Jiang Tang actually saw satisfaction and pride on his usually expressionless face.
Qin Chuyang pouted his lips, "Sister-in-law, Chuyang is not a man, I want you to kiss me."
The brother is a bad guy. He doesn’t want him to kiss his sister-in-law and he doesn’t want to care about his brother anymore.
Although she was angry with Qin Xiao, since she had already promised him, Jiang Tang stretched out her head and pinched the boy's face, "Chuyang, go and kiss your brother."
The young fellow glanced at his younger brother clinging to his sister-in-law and wrinkled his nose.
Then he left Jiang Tang, walked up to his brother, and looked at him accusingly.
"Brother, I want a kiss."
Qin Xiao patted the kid's head with a rare good look and said, "When you grow up, find your own wife."
Qin Chuyang frowned. He didn't want a wife. His brother was a bad guy.
"Brother, you can't monopolize my sister-in-law alone."
The young fellow has quite a vocabulary and knows how to monopolize things.
Qin Xiao did not answer, but his attitude showed that he had to monopolize his wife.
There was no expression on the man's face, and Qin Chuyang felt deflated.
"Brother, if you let me kiss my sister-in-law, I will also kiss your wife in the future."
As soon as the brat said these naive words, Qin Xiao's face turned dark. He picked up the little bastard and threw him away.
Jiang Tang looked at the man's dark face and laughed out loud.
She walked over and pulled the kid back, saying softly, "Chuyang, ignore your brother. Wait a few days and your sister-in-law will take you to buy toys, okay?"
I can only make up for the little guy somewhere else.
Qin Chuyang looked at his sister-in-law and nodded obediently, "Okay, sister-in-law, if you don't give brother a kiss, we will ignore him."
After saying that, she glared at her brother fiercely, not knowing that she almost got spanked just now.
If we weren't at home now, the kid would have been beaten up.
—
After spending the New Year at Zhou's house, on the sixth day of the New Year, Jiang Tang got up early, changed his clothes quickly, and went downstairs with Qin Xiao.
At the dinner table, she smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, I plan to take Chuyang and the others to the mall for a stroll today."
She paused for a moment before continuing, "I'm also planning to buy some gifts for my friends back home."
Every adult could understand what this meant. After Jiang Tang finished speaking, he looked at Zhou's father and mother and indeed saw disappointment in their eyes.
Jiang Tang also felt a little sad, but there was no way to drag it out, they had to leave.
Zhou's mother paused for a while. The New Year was over, so she went to buy gifts. Her daughter-in-law was about to leave, so she had to accept it herself.
She smiled and said slowly, "Buy gifts, buy some souvenirs for them to take back."
"Go buy it on Chang'an Street. The ones there are the most memorable."
Jiang Tang kept nodding with a smile, "Listen to mom."
After she finished talking to Zhou's mother, she turned to look at Qin Xiao, "Do you want to call Lei Zi and the others today?"
Qin Xiao nodded slightly, "The factory is still on holiday. After I finish shopping and come back, I will call the factory to see if Lei Zi and He Tian have come to the factory. If they answer the phone, I will tell them."
It was originally holiday time, but they might not have enough time to leave the factory, so the two brothers would probably take turns to look after the equipment and machines in the factory.
Listening to the conversation between the young lady and Qin Xiao, Zhou's mother couldn't help but speak up, "Young lady, can't you stay at home for a few more days? There are other people guarding the factory, so it won't cause any trouble if you go back a few days later."
Jiang Tang spoke softly, "Mom, the factory will open at the beginning of the year. Qin Xiao and his team need to take orders for the new season and are also busy recruiting workers. It won't be late for a few days."
Originally, they should have left after the New Year, but they stayed here for a few more days. Qin Xiao estimated that when they returned, they would not even have time to rest and would have to start working non-stop again.
Zhou's mother also knew that it was difficult to persuade her, so she could only nod and say, "Okay."
Jiang Tang looked at her and said softly, "Mom, please let Qin Xiao go back to work. When he gets the factory up and running, maybe one day we can come to the capital to develop."
"Well, that's the truth. Then mom is waiting for you."
Mother Zhou forced a smile and smiled at her daughter.
After finishing the meal, Qin Xiao cleaned up the dishes and washed them. Jiang Tang went upstairs, put on some makeup, then took the money and went downstairs.
Qin Xiao had already finished his bowl and was waiting.
Jiang Tang suddenly came downstairs, and Zhou's mother put her arm around her daughter's shoulders, looked at her daughter's brighter complexion, and said with a smile, "My daughter is so pretty."
Jiang Tang smiled at her and looked at Zhou's mother with a frown, "Then I look like mom, and mom is pretty too."
Zhou's mother was happy and held Jiang Tang's hand and laughed.
Jiang Tang looked at Qin Xiao who was sitting on the sofa and said softly, "Qin Xiao, you drive for a while."
Zhou's father had already used up his vacation time in advance and had returned to work, leaving his car at home for them to use.
Except for Zhou's father, all the family members got in the car. Qin Xiao sat in the driver's seat and drove towards Chang'an Avenue.
Until they arrived at the place, Zhou's mother walked in front and led them.
Jiang Tang held Qin Chuyang, while Zhou An was held by Qin Xiao, and they walked inside together.
They wanted to buy souvenirs, so Zhou's mother took a few people and walked straight into Chang'an Avenue.
Until we arrived at an old street, the furnishings and decorations inside looked very ancient, with all kinds of exquisite and quaint souvenirs, the dazzling array of which made people a little dazzled.
Zhou's mother brought Jiang Tang and the others into the store and stared at the exquisite items inside. Jiang Tang just looked at first and did not try to move.
Only after the shop owner told them that they could pick it up and have a look without causing any trouble did Jiang Tang take action, pick up a small piece of porcelain and examine it carefully.
Thinking about the people at home, Jiang Tang bought everything he liked or thought Wen Juan and the others would like. After buying everything, he bought some for Zhou's father and mother, as well as little Zhou An.
Qin Xiao skillfully handed all the things he bought along the way to the tall man behind him, and he took them one by one.
The family walked along Chang'an Avenue before returning home. It was already afternoon when they got home.
We were so busy shopping that we didn't even have time for lunch. Little Zhou An was the only one left, drinking up all the milk in his bottle.
After returning home, Jiang Tang and Qin Xiao put the things back in the room and put away the gifts.
Jiang Tang whispered, "Call the factory later and tell them the situation."
Qin Xiao nodded, and the couple went downstairs together. Qin Xiao first called the factory.
Zhou's mother is making milk powder for Zhou An.
Jiang Tang sat on the sofa, holding Zhou An in her arms, and Qin Chuyang also stayed close to her.
Qin Xiao's phone rang for a long time before someone answered.
"Hey, Brother Xiao."
It's Lei Zi's voice.
Qin Xiao said calmly, "Lei Zi, are you in the factory?"
Wang Qilei touched his nose and said, "Well, Brother Xiao, Brother Hetian and I are really worried about it. We will take turns to come over every two days. We will start work in a few days, and we have to make sure that the machines in the factory are in good condition."
"Otherwise, the construction period will be delayed when the new year comes."
Qin Xiao said in a deep voice, "Thank you for your hard work."
Wang Qilei waved his hands carelessly, "What's the hard part? We just came to take a look. It won't interfere with the Chinese New Year. Today's Chinese New Year is better than before. I wouldn't even dare to think about it before."
"Brother Xiao, we cooked chicken, duck, goose and fish at home today, but it's just me and my mom. I would never have been willing to do that before."
Qin Xiao raised the corners of his lips slightly and hummed.
"We will be back in a couple of days. Then you and Hetian can take a break and have a good rest at home."
Wang Qilei said loudly, "Brother Xiao, why don't you and your sister-in-law stay in the capital for a few more days? It's been a long time since you came back."
Qin Xiao glanced at the little girl next to him and said calmly, "It's decided."
They had already made up their minds, and Wang Qilei didn't plan to continue persuading him, but he refused Qin Xiao's offer to give him a holiday.
"Brother Xiao, we will definitely have a lot of things to do at the beginning of the year. We need to recruit new employees and negotiate new season orders. Why don't you wait until we have recruited new employees and then give Brother Wada and me a holiday? We will definitely be happy with that."
He knew that Brother Hetian thought the same thing, so he told Qin Xiao directly.
Qin Xiao didn't say anything, but said in a deep voice, "I'll tell you when I get back."
"Okay."
Qin Xiao hung up the phone, and Jiang Tang asked her, "Are He Tian and the others in the factory?"
Qin Xiao nodded slightly, "Yes, it's Leizi."
"They will take turns watching over the factory to ensure that the equipment is ready for use at the beginning of the new year."
Jiang Tang sighed softly, "This year, they have had a harder time than us."
Qin Xiao nodded slightly.
Mother Zhou prepared some milk powder, fed Zhou An some, and then started to cook.
Jiang Tang went over quickly. How could she be asked to do anything now? They were all leaving, so she should do what she could.
"Mom, sit down and play with An An, I'll cook."
Mother Zhou looked at her, somewhat reluctantly. Jiang Tang whispered, "Mom, I want to cook for you."
Zhou's mother sighed lightly, and she felt very clearly that her daughter was really leaving.
She sighed and nodded.
Jiang Tang turned around and looked at Qin Xiao, and said loudly, "Qin Xiao, help me."
The man walked straight to Jiang Tang, and the couple went into the kitchen together.
Zhou's mother held Zhou An and played on the sofa in the living room.
Jiang Tang cooked a large table full of dishes. When Zhou's father came back, Zhou's mother asked someone to wash their hands, and the family sat down at the table.
Father Zhou looked at his daughter and Qin Xiao and whispered, "Daughter, have you decided when you will go back?"
Jiang Tang blinked, turned to look at Qin Xiao, and said softly, "We plan to go back on the eighth day of the first lunar month."
It is not advisable to go out on the seventh day of the New Year. If you skip this time, it will be the eighth day.
Father Zhou sighed silently and whispered, "Everything is ready."
No matter how reluctant you are, you have to let them go.
Jiang Tang felt a little sad and nodded.
Jiang Tang prepared a large table of dishes for this meal. Zhou's father and mother were not in a good mood at all, but they still smiled and ate one more bowl of food so as not to waste the lady's kindness.
Jiang Tang smiled and said, "Tomorrow we still have one day. I will make some food for Mom and Dad. You can put it in the refrigerator on weekdays and take it out when you want to eat."
"If you don't have enough in the future, just call me and I'll send it to you."
Jiang Tang gently held Zhou's mother's hand, a smile on his lips, "Now that we have a telephone at home, it is convenient to make calls. You can hear our voices at any time."
Her comfort had some effect. Zhou's father and mother had no choice but to accept it. But after listening to what their daughter-in-law said, their expressions relaxed a lot.
Father Zhou looked at Mother Zhou and nodded, "My daughter is right. If we miss her, we can call her anytime."
If you hold on to it and don't let go, it will become useless. It's not what they want, so you have to learn to let go.
Mother Zhou smiled and nodded, "I know."
After dinner, Zhou's mother pulled Jiang Tang to sit on the sofa and chat. After Qin Xiao washed the dishes, he saw the little girl holding Zhou's mother's hand and talking.
He returned to the room in silence, and after washing up, he looked down from the stairs, stared at the little girl's well-behaved face, and returned to his bedroom.
He turned on the electric blanket, picked up a book, and leaned on the bed to read. Time passed by unknowingly. Qin Xiao looked at the time on the bedside table for the umpteenth time. It was already very late.
The man turned his head and continued to stare at the book in his hand, which he had only turned a few pages of.
It was late at night before Zhou's mother finished her words with a lingering feeling. She took Jiang Tang upstairs and saw the lady's room from the stairs. Light was shining through the window above the door.
He looked at the lady and smiled, "Go back quickly, Qin Xiao is still waiting for you."
Jiang Tang tilted his head to look at the light, his cheeks slightly hot, and nodded gently.
He said hello to Zhou's mother and walked into the room.
When I opened the door, I saw a man half lying on the bed reading a book.
Hearing the noise, Qin Xiao looked up, stared at the little girl who came in, and quickly put the book in his hand aside.
Jiang Tang looked at him, turned off the light silently, groped his way to the bed in the darkness, and then climbed onto the bed.
As soon as she got into bed, she was held in the man's arms. Jiang Tang felt the warm touch of Qin Xiao's body and said softly, "Qin Xiao, I feel cold."
Qin Xiao hugged the person tighter in his arms and said in a nonchalant voice, "Yeah, I'm hot."
The little girl's body was full of coolness brought back from outside, and Qin Xiao hugged her tighter and tighter, trying to warm her up quickly.
He didn't listen, so Jiang Tang obediently let him hold her in his arms. She gently put her small hand into Qin Xiao's clothes. The cold little hand instantly made the man's skin tighten, but she didn't back off.
Qin Xiao reached out and held Jiang Tang's hand, pulling her closer inside.
Jiang Tang coughed lightly and retracted his fingers. "Okay, I'm not cold anymore."
Qin Xiao let go of the little girl's hand only when he felt the temperature in his palm slowly warming up.
Jiang Tang whispered, "It's so late, why are you waiting for me?"
The man said calmly, "I'm reading."
Jiang Tang blinked, "Oh, what book are you reading?"
The man was silent for a rare moment. He hugged the little girl and said in a low voice, "Go to sleep."
Jiang Tang tried not to laugh out loud, rubbed the quilt and muttered softly, "Yeah, sleep."
The next morning, after finishing her breakfast, Jiang Tang started to prepare some food. She planned to cook all her best dishes so that Zhou's father and mother could enjoy them slowly.
Zhou's mother insisted on helping her daughter, and Jiang Tang was afraid that she would be tired.
But Zhou's mother wanted to stay with her daughter more.
"Tangtang, just think of it as teaching mommy. In the future, mommy will also be able to learn to make the things that Tangtang makes."
Jiang Tang looked at Zhou's mother in front of him and responded in a low voice.
Only then did Zhou's mother smile and follow her into the kitchen.
Jiang Tang tied her apron, chased Qin Xiao, the original assistant cook, out, and said softly, "Qin Xiao, go to the living room and play with Chu Yang and An An."
"Come back and tell us if anything happens."
The man looked at the little girl, lowered his eyes, untied his apron, and quietly left the kitchen.
Jiang Tang felt helpless. She inexplicably felt that the man's back looked a bit pitiful and abandoned.
"Tangtang, let's get started."
Zhou's mother's words made Jiang Tang turn around. She immediately shook off the inexplicable thoughts in her mind, nodded to Zhou's mother with a smile, and started to make things.
While doing it, Jiang Tang carefully explained to Zhou's mother every step of the process and why it should be done in that way, explaining it clearly.
The gentle and soft voice made Zhou's mother unable to help but keep her eyes on her young lady, and she couldn't help but look at her in fascination.
Her daughter really understood a lot and grew up a lot.
Jiang Tang heard no sound from the side, "Is there something you don't understand?"
As she asked, she looked up and saw Zhou's mother standing beside her in a daze.
Her sight and voice brought Zhou's mother back to her senses. She shook her head quickly and said, "No, Tangtang, you explained it very clearly. Mom will remember it."
Jiang Tang looked at her with a frown and lowered his head again.
She spent a day making several kinds of hot sauce, some dried meat, and some meat floss...
Afraid that Zhou's mother wouldn't understand, sometimes I would use a pen to mark it for her.
I put all the prepared food in the refrigerator and saw that it was getting late outside.
Jiang Tang then whispered, "Mom, it's already late, let's make dinner first."
Having been with her daughter for the entire day, Zhou's mother had forgotten the time. After hearing Jiang Tang's words, she turned around to look at the sky outside and remained silent for a moment.
Then he smiled at Jiang Tang and forced a smile, "Well, your father will be back soon, it's time to cook."
Zhou's mother turned her head away and started to help. Jiang Tang felt a little sad when he saw this.
"I'll make your favorite food for you and daddy tonight."
She tried to persuade Zhou's mother not to be so sad, and Zhou's mother also cooperated with her and agreed with a smile.
Jiang Tang sighed and cooked the last meal in the evening.
By the time the food was served, Zhou's father came back.
Staring at the sumptuous meal on the table, Father Zhou concealed his reluctance in his heart and only smiled as he looked at Jiang Tang and Qin Xiao with satisfaction, "Tang Tang, Qin Xiao..."
"Dad won't say anything more. You should live a good life in the future."
He looked at Qin Xiao and said in a deep voice, "Qin Xiao..."
Father Zhou took a deep breath and said only a few words, "Be good to my daughter."
Qin Xiao responded in a deep voice with endless promises in his dark eyes.
Mother Zhou sighed, "Okay, let's not talk about this. My daughter has prepared a table full of delicious dishes. They are all our favorites. Let's eat first."
Father Zhou also smiled and nodded, "That's right, let's eat."
Jiang Tang and Qin Xiao looked at each other, and Jiang Tang couldn't help but keep picking up food for them.
Zhou's father and mother accepted everything. The meal took a long time and it was already dark outside.
After finishing the meal, Qin Xiao took the dishes and went to wash them.
Jiang Tang sat on the sofa with Zhou's father and mother and watched TV.
No one in the family disturbed the peace. They just watched TV and listened to the sound of the TV.
Zhou An held Jiang Tang obediently, snuggled in her arms, and looked at Jiang Tang with his big eyes.
Jiang Tang touched his head from time to time, looked into the little boy's big eyes and smiled at him.
Finally, Zhou's mother stood up and looked at Jiang Tang with a forced smile on her face, "Tangtang, it's getting late. You still have to travel tomorrow. It will be even more tiring on the road. Just get a good sleep today."
Jiang Tang tilted his head and looked at them.
Father Zhou also stood up and said, "It's time to rest."
Mother Zhou picked Zhou An up from Jiang Tang's arms and said, "Okay, go and have a rest."
Jiang Tang felt a sour nose and swollen eyes, and nodded obediently.
After she went upstairs to take a shower, she returned to her room in a somewhat depressed mood.
After a while, Qin Xiao came back, looked at the little girl's face, and was silent.
As soon as Jiang Tang saw him coming back, he said softly, "Qin Xiao, they are fine."
The man's eyes dimmed slightly, and he turned off the light so as not to let the girl see his emotions. He then got on the bed and responded in a hoarse voice.
Jiang Tangwo lay in his arms and said softly, "I can't bear to leave them."
He paused with his hand around hers and said nothing, just holding her to comfort her.
Jiang Tang closed her eyes, and the man patted her back gently and regularly. She fell asleep slowly in a reluctant mood.
It was early in the morning, and the sky was not yet fully bright, with only a little light.
Jiang Tang and Qin Xiao had already gotten up, and Qin Xiao had already packed their luggage.
Qin Xiao carried the backpack and a large bag in his hands, while Jiang Tang still carried her small bag. The couple went downstairs together.
Zhou's father and mother also got up early.
Seeing the young couple carrying their luggage downstairs, Zhou's mother's eyes became red, but she still held back her emotions and did not let herself cry.
With a smile on his face, he said, "Tangtang, Qinxiao, everything has been packed. Did you forget anything?"
Jiang Tang nodded and hummed obediently, "Qin Xiao has checked it, and it's nothing."
"Then Mom will be relieved."
"Let's eat first. Your dad has taken the morning off and will take you to the train station later."
Jiang Tang did not refuse. She put her bag on the sofa and took Qin Chuyang to have breakfast.
I finally finished my breakfast slowly.
Jiang Tang returned to the living room and put on her bag.
Qin Xiao also took the things. Jiang Tang held Qin Chuyang's hand. The family stood in the living room and looked at Zhou's father and mother.
It's time for them to go.
"Wow!"
Zhou An, who was held in his mother's arms, burst into tears without any warning.
Zhou's mother patted his back and coaxed him gently, but the little guy cried louder and louder, choking as he cried.
"……elder sister……"
As soon as Zhou An called out Jiang Tang, Zhou's mother couldn't hold back her tears and started crying.
Jiang Tang felt extremely sad.
Mother Zhou couldn't help but look at her daughter, and she expressed the expectation hidden deep in her heart.
"My dear, why don't you stay at home for a few more days and let Qin Xiao go back first."
"Wait... a few days, and then let your father take you there. An An will be reluctant to leave you."
After Zhou's mother said this, Zhou's father's eyes relaxed a little, and they both looked at Jiang Tang.
Jiang Tang felt extremely sad, and for a moment he was moved, and his eyes unconsciously looked at the man next to him.
When their eyes met, she saw the dark emotions in the man's eyes.
Although the man didn't say anything, his black eyes stared at her intently, his knuckles turned white, and the girl's reluctance to let go yesterday filled his mind.
Jiang Tang lowered his eyes, bit the inner wall of his mouth with his teeth, closed his eyes for a while, and then made up his mind. He opened his eyes and looked at Zhou's father and mother with his watery eyes, and said softly,
"Mom, the factory can't do without me. I have to help with the new models for the new year. I have to go back with Qin Xiao today."
After Jiang Tang said this, Zhou's father and mother could not hide their disappointment, but they did not continue to stop her.
It was not until Jiang Tang refused that the man felt as if he was saved. His slightly stagnant heart came back to life, his pulse began to beat again, and he exhaled a breath that rolled into his throat.
The little girl held the corner of the clothes in her palm and clenched it gently.
Qin Xiao's eyes were dark and deep. He raised his hand without hesitation, held the little girl's hand, and then intertwined their fingers, not wanting to let go even if he died. He couldn't force the little girl to make a choice, but could only pray that she would choose him.
What the little girl said was not complete. It was not that the factory could not do without her, but that he could not do without her.
