"I will not let this go, I will find the mastermind!" Meng Jianguo's eyes flashed with anger. Anyone who dared to lay a hand on his family, he would investigate to the end and would never let the mastermind behind it go.
Seeing how angry Meng Jianguo was, Meng Qiqi looked up and glanced at him timidly.
Meng Jianguo lowered his head, looked at his son who was nestled in Lin Xiuxiu's arms, and reached out to rub his head.
He didn't speak, but Meng Qiqi's eyes reddened, and she raised her head and reached out her hand to Meng Jianguo.
"dad."
"What's wrong?"
This was the first time Meng Jianguo had ever seen his son reach out to him. He used to avoid him, and he even thought that Meng Qiqi didn't like him!
Meng Jianguo picked up his son from Lin Xiuxiu's arms; he rarely held Meng Qiqi.
He held him a few times when he was just born, three years after his birth. After that, he could count the number of times he held him on one hand.
Meng Jianguo felt guilty towards his wife and children. He was in the army most of the year and rarely came home. His wife had cried about this more than once.
"Waaaaah!!!" Meng Qiqi, who was being held in Meng Jianguo's arms, suddenly burst into tears.
Meng Jianguo looked at Lin Xiuxiu for help, but Lin Xiuxiu just smiled and didn't seem to want to save her husband.
On the contrary, I think Meng Jianguo should hug Meng Qiqi more.
There is no father and son in the world who meet without exchanging a single word.
Seeing Meng Qiqi cry in Meng Jianguo's arms, Lin Xiuxiu felt somewhat relieved and looked at Qin Yu and Xia Lan.
Although I don't know what they said to Qiqi, it must have been because of them that Qiqi didn't resist at all.
Meng Jianguo could only awkwardly hold Meng Qiqi and coax her, stroking her head. For the first time, Meng Qiqi felt a sense of security from her father and actually fell asleep on Meng Jianguo's body.
When everyone heard Meng Qiqi's crying suddenly stop, they looked over curiously and saw that Meng Qiqi was already asleep.
She would sob in her sleep.
They look very pitiful.
"Qiqi is still young. It's remarkable that she could endure such a big thing until now before she finally exploded," Xia Lan whispered to Lin Xiuxiu.
She told Lin Xiuxiu about Meng Qiqi's behavior over the past two days. When Lin Xiuxiu heard that Meng Qiqi had actually followed Qin Yu and brushed her teeth obediently, she couldn't help but look at Meng Qiqi in surprise.
"Don't laugh at me, but ever since Qiqi was born, Aunt Xu has been taking care of him. This is my dereliction of duty as a mother." Lin Xiuxiu also felt a little regretful.
As a first-time mother, she wanted to give Meng Qiqi the best of everything, but she didn't know that what Meng Qiqi needed was not everything she arranged, but her as a mother.
"It's not too late now. He needs you. The little guy is very smart, but he's still just a child. It's better if you take care of him yourselves." Xia Lan didn't dare to say too much and gently reminded him.
“You are not without conditions, but no material condition can compare to having your parents by your side.”
Lin Xiuxiu glanced at Meng Jianguo with shame. "It's my fault. Jianguo always wanted me to go with him to the army. I was willful and selfish."
"Jianguo, after we go back this time, Qiqi and I will go with you to the army, okay?"
After nearly losing her son, Lin Xiuxiu has been pondering what is truly most important to her these past two days.
After her son was abducted, she lost all desire to appreciate her favorite flowers, her mind filled only with thoughts of her son.
Only then did she realize that her son was not unimportant to her, but extremely important; she had simply been unaware of it all along.
“Okay.” Meng Jianguo’s eyes lit up and he reached out to grasp Lin Xiuxiu’s hand.
His face remained expressionless, but his slightly trembling hands betrayed his inner excitement.
"We'll raise our son ourselves, and our family will never be separated again." Lin Xiuxiu looked at her son, who was sleeping peacefully in Meng Jianguo's arms, and kissed his cheek.
“Mm,” Meng Jianguo replied.
"Can we be good friends?" Lin Xiuxiu walked up to Xia Lan, carefully took her hand, and asked.
"Of course, I'd love to be friends with a beauty like you." Xia Lan looked at Lin Xiuxiu, who was simply the embodiment of her ideal goddess, fulfilling all her fantasies.
She was graceful and charming, with every gesture exuding allure and charm. Her every smile and frown was full of captivating allure, and she possessed an innate charm that captivated men's hearts.
Even she, a woman, is almost captivated by her.
Especially after getting to know Lin Xiuxiu, Xia Lan felt that Lin Xiuxiu was a treasure. She was a beauty, but her inner nature was different from her appearance. Her eyes revealed a clear and pure nature.
Her words carried a light and charming quality, making her seem more like a young girl than as mature as she appeared.
"You are my first friend." Lin Xiuxiu was very happy, finally making her first friend in life.
"Your first friend?" Xia Lan was taken aback.
Surely not?
"It's true, they've never liked playing with me since I was little, they don't like me at all..." Lin Xiuxiu said sadly.
Because of her face, which was born alluring.
They all liked to call her a vixen behind her back, saying she was only good at seducing men.
Lin Xiuxiu was heartbroken and stopped trying.
But now that she's met Xia Lan, she likes what she says and finds it very reasonable.
Moreover, Qi Qi also liked her very much, so Lin Xiuxiu liked Xia Lan even more.
"Is it because of your face?" Xia Lan could roughly guess the reason, after all, Lin Xiuxiu's face was indeed very controversial, and it was bound to attract attention.
At the age when girls are just beginning to experience romantic feelings, it's impossible for any girl to like Lin Xiuxiu if her crush has stolen her attention.
"Hmm." Lin Xiuxiu used to hate her face, but after marrying Meng Jianguo, she gave up the idea of ruining it under his comforting words.
"Don't worry about what others say, I just love your face, it's so beautiful!" Xia Lan said earnestly, holding Lin Xiuxiu's hand. "You are the perfect woman in my heart, you know that?"
"Ah...ah?" Lin Xiuxiu blushed, not expecting Xia Lan to say that.
"Really, if I weren't a woman, I would definitely fall in love with you!" Xia Lan said earnestly with a smile.
Meng Jianguo and Qin Yu suddenly looked up at Xia Lan.
Meng Jianguo glanced at Xia Lan warily.
Qin Yu raised an eyebrow.
What kind of rabid and inhuman words are these?
"You don't need to be so nervous. I just wanted to express that her beauty moved me..." Xia Lan's explanation only made things worse.
"No." Qin Yu walked to Xia Lan's side, hugged her, and said with displeasure.
"She's mine." Meng Jianguo stood in front of Lin Xiuxiu, hiding her behind him so that Xia Lan wouldn't see Lin Xiuxiu.
He suddenly realized that making Xia Lan Lin Xiuxiu's friend might not be a good idea.
