Shen Qingli likes to sleep in Meng Xiao's arms, but she doesn't like to rest her head on his arm, as she always feels uncomfortable.
Before falling asleep, she loved and was fascinated by the feeling of being completely embraced.
"Dad and Grandpa said that you dreamed that something happened to me?" Meng Xiao only then remembered that Aunt Zhang had mentioned it on the phone before, and Shen Qingli also mentioned it once when she was crying.
Shen Qingli turned over and stretched out his arm, walked over Meng Xiao and took the tape recorder from the bedside. Under Meng Xiao's puzzled eyes, he played the recording in its entirety.
"I don't know what happened. It was like I had a dream. I ran into those two people talking, and I saw you when I followed them. But you couldn't see me, and you couldn't hear me talking.
When you were pushed out by that woman, I woke up from my dream and my stomach started to hurt. That’s what happened.”
Shen Qingli still feels a little scared when she thinks about it. She wishes she could skin those people to death!
Meng Xiao's initial shock turned into endless panic. "What if we could all see you? You're still following these two dangerous people. It's very dangerous, you know?"
He knew that it was impossible for Shen Qingli to appear there instantly while he was sleeping, but this dream was difficult to explain.
He didn't even dare to think about what would happen if those people could see her.
“Is this recording useful to you?”
Seeing Meng Xiao nodded, she handed it to Meng Xiao and asked him to put it back on the bedside table.
"As long as it works. By the way, you still haven't told me how you managed to escape?"
It was truly a matter of life and death. Meng Xiao recalled that if it weren't for Ye Mingchuan, he might not be here now. He didn't try to hide it and told Shen Qingli directly.
"Ye Mingchuan saved me. He rushed over and blocked two bullets for me at that critical moment. If it weren't for him, it's hard to say whether I would be alive."
Shen Qingli was stunned, with a complicated expression:
"What about Brother Mingchuan? Is he... okay?"
Shen Qingli couldn't describe his mood; it was very heavy and depressed.
"He was shot in the arm and once in the chest. I gave him the spiritual spring liquid you prepared for me, which saved his life. He is still in the local hospital, being cared for by Sang Yuan. I was worried about you, so I came back first."
His tone was not relaxed either. Publicly speaking, they were comrades-in-arms, rivals, and the same kind of people.
Privately, they have the same person living in their hearts.
If it were him, he would probably rush forward as well. However, since Ye Mingchuan really did it, he would owe him.
"He helped us again."
Shen Qingli's voice was very soft, and he sighed without saying anything. His fingers clutched the quilt tightly. The couple was silent for a long time, their hearts filled with guilt.
………
Nightclubs are shorter in the summer, and Meng Xiao opened his eyes as soon as his biological clock struck. He put on his clothes quietly, and without bothering to do morning exercises, he drove the old man's car to the base with a tape recorder.
Brigade Commander's Office
"You recorded it?"
Meng Xiao also answered decisively and clearly.
"yes!"
"This recording is indeed very useful, but you heard that they set up a trap targeting you. With your intelligence, how could you fall for it?" He looked at Meng Xiao with suspicion.
"Report, the situation was urgent at that time. I was planning to take advantage of the situation and had no time to make any arrangements." Meng Xiao looked straight ahead and spoke fluently without any burden.
"Okay, I get it. You can go back first. I remember you were on vacation, right? I heard your wife gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl. Congratulations, you're so lucky! I'll go to the full moon banquet and ask for a glass of wedding wine."
…………
After Shen Qingli woke up and washed up, she didn't see Meng Xiao inside or outside the room. When she saw that the tape recorder on the bedside table was gone, she understood.
Just when I was about to go to my mother-in-law's room to take a look at the child, I heard a burst of children crying one after another coming from the front hall, and the sound of my mother-in-law coaxing the child while calling Aunt Zhang to prepare milk powder.
She quickened her pace and saw her mother-in-law holding one child in one hand and gently patting the other lying in the crib with the other hand. Both were crying.
When the children are too young, they need to be held in my hands, so I can't hold two at a time. I can only sit there holding one and patting the other.
Shen Qingli quickly walked over, picked up the other one and coaxed him softly. Ye Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and was able to free up his hands to coax the other one.
Aunt Zhang brought the bottle, and the baby finally calmed down after drinking the milk. His little face was red from crying, and he was sobbing angrily.
"What's wrong? Is it because you were late for milk?" Shen Qingli picked up the small towel on the crib and gently wiped the tear marks on little Li An's face.
Ye Qiu nodded helplessly. Otherwise, how could they be called twins? Whenever one started crying, the other would immediately follow suit.
Shen Qingli looked at the two children back and forth with a speechless expression. He didn't know who these tempers resembled.
She has also discovered this in the past few days. If you make milk powder late because she is hungry, or if you don’t change the toilet bowl immediately after she has poop, she will immediately show you her three-second tears!
"There was a candidate who came to apply for the job this morning. Although she had experience, I thought she looked a bit sloppy, so I let her go." Ye Qiu couldn't bear it anymore after just a few days. She felt like she hardly slept at night. She woke up after two hours, three hours, and groaned again after half an hour.
Meng Jianjun didn't sleep well at night.
Aunt Zhang was sitting here picking vegetables just now, her sleepy eyes half closed and her head nodding.
The two kids really made the adults exhausted.
"Let the child sleep with us tonight. Meng Xiao and I will take care of him. Mom, you and Aunt Zhang can get a good night's sleep." Meng Xiao mentioned yesterday that the mother of a comrade of his came to Beijing to rent a house to be closer to her son. Since she wasn't a local resident, it was hard to find a job, so she spent her days at home pasting paper boxes. He said he'd go ask about her today.
