A sleepless night.
The next day, afternoon.
Qin Shu lay on the bed with her legs spread out and slowly opened her eyes.
The familiar yet somewhat strange environment made her immediately realize that she had returned to the Xie family in Beijing.
Qin Shu looked at the clock on the wall. It was already afternoon. She had slept for more than ten hours.
During the past few months in Hong Kong, she experienced some thrilling experiences, which made her feel relaxed both physically and mentally when she returned to a familiar place.
Qin Shu got up from the bed, stretched her arms, and stretched lazily.
She got up, washed as quickly as possible, and went directly to the baby room next door.
“Aaaaa——”
As soon as I opened the door, I heard my son's childish voice.
Xie Dongyang and Xie Chennan were sitting on a bed that was blocked by wooden boards on all sides. One of them was holding a genuine machine gun part, and the other was holding a torn medical book.
Qin Shu raised her hand to stop the servants in the room from making any noise, not realizing how dangerous the toy in her eldest son's hand was.
She stared straight at the medical book in her youngest son's hand, and her pupils shrank suddenly.
As a doctor, the thing I cannot tolerate the most is seeing medical books being destroyed.
Qin Shu took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and told herself that this was her own son, and she couldn't hit him...
“Sizzle—”
Xie Chennan didn't notice his mother standing at the door, her chubby little hands happily tearing up the medical book.
The crisp sound of paper brought a simple smile to his young face.
Xie Chennan took the torn paper and handed it to Xie Dongyang, who was holding the gun parts in his little hands.
"Aiya!"
He seemed to be showing off, saying - look how great I am!
Xie Dongyang glanced at his brother with his dark eyes, his eyes seemed to be disdainful, and shouted fiercely: "Aiyaya!"
Xie Chennan tilted his head and looked at him, his expression very excited, and he opened his mouth: "Ahhh——"
Xie Dongyang's face was tense, and he waved his fist in the air to protest: "Ahhh——"
I don’t know what the two brothers are communicating about.
Xie Chennan was unhappy and yelled fiercely: "Ah!"
Xie Dongyang didn't say anything, but as if he was impatient, he raised his leg and kicked his brother.
Xie Chennan was furious, his face puffed up, he threw away the medical book in his hand, and began to tear it up as if to vent his anger.
Qin Shu couldn't stand it anymore when she saw this scene. She shouted sinisterly, "Chenchen, what are you doing?"
The sudden sound startled the Xie brothers and they shuddered all over.
They turned around at the same time, with similar expressions of surprise on their little faces.
"ah!"
"ah!"
Xie Dongyang and Xie Chennan dropped the things in their hands at the same time, crawled to the bed, and held on to the protective wooden board with their little hands.
Qin Shu walked forward, gently picked up her older son, and looked down at her younger son, who looked visibly aggrieved.
"Little rascal, why did you tear up my medical book?"
“Wow wow wow!!!”
Xie Chennan didn't understand, and burst into tears in grievance as he looked at his brother who was being held by his mother.
He leaned back, lay on the bed, waving his arms and legs, and cried like a tyrant.
“Wow wow wow!!!”
While Xie Chennan was crying, he made short hiccups in his throat.
Qin Shu panicked immediately. She had no time to be angry. She quickly put down her eldest son in her arms and reached out to hug her younger son who was throwing a tantrum.
She reached her hand halfway and suddenly stopped.
Xie Chennan cried out in grievance, but there was not a single tear in his eyes!
Qin Shu's hand in the air trembled slightly.
This... is really her baby who is just over three months old and is almost grown up!
When Xie Chennan saw his mother holding him, he climbed up very skillfully and pinched Qin Shu's fingers with his chubby little hands.
“Wow—”
It's a baby voice, like calling for mommy.
Qin Shu's heart softened in an instant. Without thinking too much, she hugged Xie Chennan in her arms.
She chuckled and said, "You little rascal, you have so many schemes, you are as evil as your father."
"ah!!!"
Xie Dongyang, who was sitting on the bed, was fed up and let out a cry, indicating that he was being ignored.
Qin Shu was still very weak and could not hold two children.
She freed one hand and touched the teardrop mole at the corner of her eldest son's eye.
"Yangyang, be good. Mommy will hold you later. I haven't been feeling well lately and can't hold you anymore."
Xie Dongyang blinked his clear and lively eyes, as if he understood, and glanced at Xie Chennan who was smiling.
He pouted and hummed for a while, then crawled over to the pile of gun parts and started tinkering with them.
The carefree Qin Shu only then realized how dangerous that pile of spare parts was. She frowned and looked at the servant beside her.
"Yangyang's hands are too tender, won't he hurt himself when playing with these things?"
The servant stepped forward and said respectfully, "We will watch from the side. Master Yang is very smart, and he didn't give us a magazine, so there is not much danger."
Qin Shu nodded, put her younger son on the bed, and held her older son for a while.
Both kids are very well behaved for now.
Qin Shu looked at the torn medical books all over the bed and felt a little unhappy.
The servant sensed her change in mood and took the initiative to explain: "A few days ago, the two little masters probably missed you and the young master, and they kept crying loudly. No matter how we coaxed them, they wouldn't stop. Madam carried them to your and the young master's bedroom, and they finally calmed down."
"At that time, Master Chen saw the book you put at the bottom of the bookshelf and pointed at it, humming for it. Madam said that the medical book you put at the bottom should not be very important, so she gave it to Master Chen to play with.
He used to read it page by page, but today he suddenly started tearing it up. He got angry when we tried to stop him. We have kept the part he tore up this morning."
When Qin Shu heard this, the heavy expression on her face eased a lot.
The medical book under the bookshelf was indeed not one she read very often, so she kept the torn parts and could just copy another one later.
Qin Shu looked down at Xie Chennan, who was blinking his big eyes, and pinched his little nose.
"You little rascal, you can't tear up your mother's medical books anymore, do you understand?"
“Aiya——!”
Xie Chennan pointed at the torn paper on the bed with his little hand.
Qin Shu looked in the direction of his chubby little hand and saw a crumpled piece of paper covered with words.
She didn't take it seriously at first, until the words on the cover of the medical book caught Qin Shu's eye - "The Mysterious Art of Ancient Medicine".
Qin Shu narrowed her beautiful eyes, her breathing became slow, and she stood there for a long time without moving.
“Ahhhh!!!”
Xie Chennan opened his little mouth slightly, his voice was childish, and his chubby little hands pressed on Qin Shu's pretty face.
Qin Shu finally came back to her senses, smiled at her youngest son, put him on the bed, and picked up the torn medical books and the messy papers on the bed.
Without even looking up, she said, "I'll take this book first. Go find another book for Chenchen to play with later."
