Lin Xiao explained in detail and with great care, and Qin Yushen understood what she meant.
She didn't want to overthink things and get stuck in a dead end.
"I've made you worry again. It's my fault." Qin Yu pursed his lips and unconsciously tightened his grip on Lin Xiaoxiao's hand.
Lin Xiaoxiao gripped his hand back, and the two intertwined their fingers.
"Don't overthink it. What you're saying are all things you have to go through when you have a child. Didn't we prepare for that before we had the baby?"
"You've kept your promise to take good care of me, so don't feel guilty."
At this point, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but puff out her cheeks to show him her round face. "My godmother said today that my complexion is rosy and I look healthier."
"Comrade Qin Yushen, I must commend you for raising a wife."
"Humility makes one progress, while pride makes one fall behind. Even if you receive praise, you should not be arrogant."
"We must continue our efforts."
Qin Yushen was successfully amused.
He leaned slightly forward, his thin lips close to her ear, his warm breath like a soft feather, gently brushing against Lin Xiaoxiao's fair neck, bringing a tingling sensation.
Lin Xiaoxiao's ears were a sensitive spot; the moment her breath got close, she instinctively wanted to back away.
But Qin Yu held her tightly around the waist, making it impossible for her to move.
"Wh...what are you doing?" Lin Xiaoxiao pinched her earlobe, trying to get rid of the strange feeling.
Qin Yushen lowered his head and kissed her, his voice tinged with amusement, "Keep it up."
Hey! That's not the kind of "keep trying" approach.

Two days later, just as Lin Xiaoxiao had expected, Shao Gang found nothing, only that they were a couple of Beijing locals speaking with a Beijing accent.
It is impossible to determine whether the person is still in Beijing or has gone to Wuhan.
It would be strange if no one was behind this.
"It seems I have to go to Jiangcheng." After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiaoxiao pondered for a while and finally decided to go to Jiangcheng.
Those so-called biological parents could have just come to her to acknowledge their relationship, but instead they went to Jiangcheng instead of going through all that trouble.
I don't know where I heard the news that Zhao Yu was getting married, but I immediately called He Meng.
What's wrong!
If they don't dare cause trouble in Beijing, why don't they do it in Wuhan?
She wanted to see what they were up to.
That very evening, he told Qin Yushen about his decision to go to Jiangcheng. Qin Yushen nodded without hesitation, "You confirm the time, and I'll get the chief's approval for leave."
"Zhao Yu is getting married on the 16th, so it's not too late for us to arrive on the 15th."
If you go too early, you won't see those two.
Qin Yu nodded deeply, "Then we'll leave on the 12th."
Lin Xiaoxiao asked in confusion, "Leaving so early?"
It only takes less than two days to drive from Beijing to Jiangcheng. I left on the 12th and arrived on the evening of the 13th.
Qin Yushen placed his hand on her abdomen, feeling the slight fetal movement, his eyes tender.
Upon hearing this, he said, "Leaving a couple of days earlier means we can rest and rest along the way, so we won't waste time."
Actually, it was because Lin Xiaoxiao was pregnant that being cautious on the road was definitely the right thing to do.
"Okay." Lin Xiaoxiao had no objections.
The trip to Jiangcheng was decided just like that.
When Qin Yushen asked for leave, Han Ming and Chu Xiaonian did not make things difficult for him and readily granted him leave.
On the 12th, Qin Yushen drove, and Lin Xiaoxiao sat in the passenger seat, with a pillow under her waist, comfortably embarking on the journey to Jiangcheng.
The two were not in a hurry to travel, but enjoyed the scenery along the way, and occasionally stopped to taste the local cuisine at the local state-run restaurants.
They were living a carefree and leisurely life.
When they arrived in Jiangcheng, it was the day before Zhao Yu's wedding.
"Hello, who are you looking for?" The sentry at the entrance of the military region stopped the two.
Just as Qin Yushen was about to speak, several excited voices came from behind him, "Xiaoxiao?"
"Is that Xiaoxiao?"
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and turned around to greet them, "Sister-in-law Wang, Sister-in-law Lü, Sister-in-law Hu, it's been a long time!"
"Oh dear, it's so tiny."
The women rushed towards Lin Xiaoxiao, asking all at once, "Why did you suddenly come back? Is it because Deputy Commander Qin is being transferred back?"
Sister-in-law Wang glared at the person who said that, annoyed. "Are you just jealous of other people's success? Can't you speak properly?"
The man was startled to realize that she had inadvertently revealed her true feelings.
Sister-in-law Wang pulled Lin Xiaoxiao aside, saying, "Don't listen to their nonsense. Just ignore what they say."
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded. She knew perfectly well what kind of people these were, so she didn't take it to heart at all.
When Qin Yushen was suddenly transferred to Beijing, everyone in the military region was incredulous. After Qin Yushen and Lin Xiaoxiao left, there were many rumors circulating behind the scenes.
But everyone knew how outstanding Qin Yushen was, and it was only a matter of time before he was transferred to Beijing. After discussing it for a while, everyone put it out of their minds.
Six months later, the two reappeared in the military region, which inevitably led to speculation among the public.
Is it because Qin Yushen can no longer stay in the Beijing Military Region and is being transferred back?
Speculation is just speculation.
The next second, Lin Xiaoxiao explained to them why they came back, "Isn't Commander Zhao's son getting married? We came back for the wedding banquet."
So that's the reason.
Everyone suddenly realized.
The woman who spoke first said, "Commander Zhao said that he doesn't plan to have a big wedding for Company Commander Zhao. He will only invite relatives from both sides and senior military officers. You've probably come all this way for nothing."
"Besides, Beijing is so far from Jiangcheng. Coming back just for a meal is really quite a hassle."
It was practically an open declaration that Qin Yushen and Lin Xiaoxiao were trying to curry favor with Commander Zhao's family.
