A Woman Appeared on the Bed (1)

"Hahaha! Whoa! Our Little Bean is rebellious…" Laughing, Qin Chu's uncle held Little Bean with one arm.1

"I'm not rebellious. It's you who's not being fair to us. The baby isn't out yet, and you're already giving him so many good things."

"I leave things for you sisters, too."

"Really?" Little Bean's eyes brightened.

"Of course, I never lie to you." Qin Chu's uncle pinched her nose tip with love in his eyes.

As people said, all the people, no matter how heartless and cold they were when they were young, would soften when they had grandchildren. So was Grandpa Su and Qin Chu's uncle.

"Heihei. That's more like it. I knew my sister and I would be well rewarded for being so good to you, Grand-uncle."

"Little girl, you'll get all your granduncle's fortune sooner or later with your glib tongue... When that happens, what can I live on?" Qin Ning teased Little Bean.

"That's impossible. Auntie, you sound as if Uncle Tang is so poor…"

"Whoa. Little kid, your glib tongue is astounding."

With Huo Mian back, the family was happy and cozy.

After supper, Huo Mian wanted her mother and Zhixin to stay in the house for the night since there were many guest rooms in here.

But her mother insisted on going home.

At last, Zhixin drove Bella and his mother out of South Hill Manor.

Before she left, Yang Meirong held Huo Mian's hand and said, "Mian, you're pregnant, so you must go to bed early; when you take a shower, be careful of the slippery floor."

"Mom, I know. I'll be careful." Huo Mian nodded.

Rest assured by her promise, the old lady finally left.

Then, Huo Mian and Qin Chu tucked the twins to beds. Since they had been separated from their mom for a long time, the kids were too excited to sleep. They asked Huo Mian to tell stories to them and then asked for ice cream, keeping their parents busy. 

When they finally fell asleep, it was half-past eleven deep into the night.

Huo Mian and Qin Chu returned to their bedroom, feeling fatigued.

Returning to their bedroom after being away for many days, she was full of happiness.

Since they had been medical students, their room was always impeccable without any dust even in the darkest corner.

When Huo Mian came out after a shower, Qin Chu picked up a towel to dry her hair.

"Are you tired?" Qin Chu asked softly.

"No. I'm happy to see family and friends." Huo Mian smiled.

"Yeah. Everyone is happy that you're back."

"It means I'm quite important. I thought the earth would continue spinning without me," Huo Mian joked.

"The earth would spin without you, but my world will stop without you," Qin Chu said earnestly.

Huo Mian's heart hurt because she knew Qin Chu had felt the greatest pain after she disappeared. 

She had just returned and didn't ask the details; but during the lunch, she heard Zhu Lingling mention that Qin Chu had spewed out blood and sank into a coma after Huo Siqian dragged her down the cliff.

Qin Chu had told her just briefly that he had recovered after sleeping for a few days, but she knew things hadn't been so simple.

Huo Mian knew Qin Chu very well; he always downplayed things because he didn't want to make her worry.

At this thought, Huo Mian turned around abruptly and held Qin Chu's neck tightly; she held him so tightly that it was difficult for him to breathe.

"What's wrong, Honey?" Qin Chu was nonplussed by her sudden movement.
