Qin Yunlang simply doubted his own ears. He moved the receiver further away, then hung up the phone after a while of noisy chatter.
Turning around, he saw Qiao Zhixia taking the children out of the car to get some fresh air.
"You should go back first! Your parents..."
"I'll take you to Jiangcheng and then go back." Qin Yunlang said firmly.
Although he really didn't want to leave them, he knew he had to go back because some things had to be taken care of for his children.
"It's up to you..."
During this long and difficult journey, Qiao Zhixia had the opportunity to relax because Qin Yunlang, the "nanny", was in charge of taking care of the baby.
At first, Yibao was still a little unfamiliar with this father, until Qin Yunlang took Yangzi to build various difficult building block models on the bed opposite.
Big cruise ships, big iron towers, trains and even various animals and buildings.
It seems that there is nothing he can't build if others can't think of it.
Hearing Yangzai's excited cheers, Yibao finally became interested and joined in unconsciously.
Qin Yunlang began to lead them to fold paper guns with newspapers, fold various small animals, and the three of them played jungle shooting together.
They looked so happy, just like three crazy people...
Qiao Zhixia felt bored and fell asleep. She could not empathize with the man's happiness.
If only I had a daughter, she could have taught her a lot of girl games.
Unconsciously, she fell into a dream, in which she returned to the time when she gave birth to two children. The difference was that this time, among the two children, there was actually a daughter.
She was crying with joy while holding her two children in her arms. When she bent down to kiss her good girls, she found that the cute and soft little face in the cradle had turned into Qin Yunlang.
Oh my god! This is crazy!
She was so frightened that she woke up immediately, but when she opened her eyes, what she saw was Qin Yunlang's enlarged handsome face.
No, what is he doing here? Where is the child?
She turned around to look for the children first, and only felt relieved when she saw two pairs of small feet sticking out from the bed opposite her.
She noticed that the curtain on the bed opposite her deliberately blocked the view of the two little kids, and she vaguely guessed the man's intention.
"What do you want to do? You don't want to do it in front of the kids..."
Before Qiao Zhixia could finish her words, the man pressed down on her and blocked her lips.
The moment they made contact, Qiao Zhixia's head went blank and the tingling sensation that went straight from the soles of her feet to her tailbone was like a wonderful electric current that made her feel happy.
The man's kiss was passionate and powerful, and his hands were restless, emitting electricity all over her body.
If this continued, she had a premonition that something was going to happen. Would the night two years ago be repeated in this place?
The child was still sleeping next to her. And he hadn’t even been taking the medicine for half a year. She quickly pushed the man away after her reasoning returned.
Qin Yunlang was forced to suppress the anger that was burning in him, and sat up, leaning against the carriage to regulate his heavy breathing.
"Zhizhi, you like me, right? Don't deny it, your body is much more honest than your mouth."
Qiao Zhixia sat up and said, "You should be thankful that you are sick, otherwise you would have died."
"No, I know you're reluctant."
Qin Yunlang knelt and sat at her feet, the moonlight outside the car window projected onto his handsome face.
The corners of his lips curved into a smile, very charming, but also very annoying.
Qiao Zhixia clenched her fist silently. Do you like it? Maybe!
But don't beat him, if you don't want to beat him up on the train and make him bleed, because there is no medicine that can make him bleed.
"Go back over there and sleep. Bring Yangzai over to me."
"I understand, wife." Smart people always know when to stop.
"Who is your wife?" Qiao Zhixia wanted to scold him, but she was afraid of waking up the two kids, so she was furious.
"I'm sorry I said the wrong thing, it's the child's mother." Qin Yunlang had already hugged Yangzi.
Qiao Zhixia glanced at him, and heard this ambiguous title, but was unable to refute the fact. She took Yangzai from his hand, and then carefully placed it inside herself.
"You sleep with Yibao! He is a quiet sleeper and won't roll around in bed. Be careful not to press him."
"Yeah." Qin Yunlang did not continue to annoy Qiao Zhixia, as if he had regained his former composure.
The two of them, each with a child, lay opposite each other across the aisle.
"Why did you hide the birth of them from me? Aren't you afraid that it will affect your remarriage?" Qin Yunlang still asked the question that he didn't understand.
"Why would I want to get married again? I can make money and fight, but for me, a man is someone I can bear children with, do you understand?"
Qin Yunlang lowered his eyes and smiled softly: "You still know how to fight?"
Qiao Zhixia suddenly stretched out her leg towards the bed opposite and pushed him off the bed without mercy.
The defenseless Qin Yunlang fell and sat on the board in front of the bed. If he hadn't been exercising regularly, he would have fallen very badly.
"You are such a heartless person..."
"Qin Yunlang, there's something I think is time to tell you the truth." Qiao Zhixia looked at Qin Yunlang, who sat up where he fell, with a serious expression.
"What truth?"
"I scratched Qin Miaomiao's face, I forced Bai Shengnan to cut her fingers, and I killed and maimed those men. Do you still think I'm a good woman?"
Qin Yunlang sat on the couch and turned to look at Qiao Zhixia with astonishment in his eyes.
Qiao Zhixia looked at his gloomy face full of shock, and she couldn't tell what she felt in her heart. She knew that if she told the truth, he would definitely avoid her.
"Are you serious?" Qin Yunlang's voice was low, as if he was hiding some repressed emotion.
"What? You want me to avenge your dead adopted sister? Or do you want me to kowtow and apologize in front of your sister's grave? Do you think that the victim's resistance is the original sin?"
"Zhizhi..." Qin Yunlang suddenly interrupted her increasingly angry questioning.
Qiao Zhixia heard the slight tremor in his voice, and only then realized that the expression on his face was not anger, but heartache.
While she was still in surprise, Qin Yunlang stood up, his tall figure enveloped her, he bent down, spread his arms and held her tightly in his arms.
He put his face close to her ear, his warm breath touching her neck.
"You must have had a hard time these years, right?"
Qiao Zhixia's body suddenly stiffened, and a sense of sadness unconsciously welled up in her eyes.
She thought that after dying once, she had become an iron wall that was immune to all poisons.
She was able to decisively give up her two-year relationship with Chen Jidong, start her own business, save her sister from the fire pit, shut up those malicious mouths in the village, fight off the hooligans, and gain a foothold in the chaotic Guangzhou with her two children.
She is obviously very strong, but why did she burst into tears just because of Qin Yunlang's words?
It turns out that the so-called strength is just a pretense!
"Zhizhi, I'm sorry! I should have come to you earlier and shared your burden. If I were still alive, I would never let you face those difficult moments alone again."
"I hurt your sister and lied to you, and you don't have anything else to say?" she whispered.
"She is not my sister, and you did nothing wrong. They are wrong, and of course I am wrong..."
