After Lou Xi put down his things, he still couldn't bear to leave. He used the excuse of "thinking about it" and deliberately delayed it.
Shu Rao was very dissatisfied with this, but after seeing Sisi being very close to him, she was slightly shaken, but she still insisted on her position. After weighing the two sides, she said she would only let him stay for half an hour, and even offered a
The alarm clock ticks time on the coffee table.
The alarm clock was ticking, and Ye Xingchen's heart was also uneasy. She knew it was true that he said he wanted to think about it, but there must be something else. But he has not come for so many days, but he came today.
There can only be one reason, and that is - he may be returning to the army, or he may have some new tasks.
Thinking of this, her heart became more and more uneasy. She knew how dangerous his profession was. Once he returned to the army, he would have to focus on everything. But they had not had a good talk about the child so far. It was time to talk about it.
.
She knew that he didn't mean it, and that the miscarriage was just an accident, but he blamed himself, and so did she. But the loss of the child was a fact, a painful fact. Such a haze could not be forgotten in a day or two, or in a month or two.
She could slowly adjust her mood, but he couldn't. His status as a soldier gave him more and more important missions. She couldn't let him go to the battlefield with his worries on his mind, otherwise the next tragedy might happen, and in that case, no one would
Would like to see.
After taking a deep breath, she slowly raised her eyes, looked at the man on the sofa, and said softly, "Lou Xi... there is something wrong with the curtain rod in my room. Please come in and help me take a look."
"Okay." Lou Xi stood up eagerly.
Ye Xingchen pretended to be calm, pretended not to see Shu Rao's suspicious eyes, and walked quickly to his room.
Lou Xi quickly followed. After entering the room, he was about to close the door, but he didn't want to be stopped by Shu Rao.
"You don't need to close the curtain rod?" Although she knew they wanted to talk alone, she was still worried, for fear that Xingchen would be bullied again.
Lou Xi had no choice but to let go.
Shu Rao then gave up and turned back to the living room, taking Sisi to play with her and leaving them a separate space. However, her eyes were still fixed on the direction of the bedroom, monitoring her at all times.
After Shu Rao left, Ye Xingchen was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but his heart suddenly lifted. He seemed to not know how to be alone with him, so he moved forward a few steps, walked to the window sill, and watered the flowers.
She turned around, but Lou Xi did not move. This was his first time here, and it was also his first time entering her room. Her room was simple and clean, but very warm, with light blue curtains and a pure white bed.
The bed was about 1.3 meters wide, a little bigger than a single bed and a little smaller than a double bed. There was a big bear on the bed, which occupied almost half of the bed.
His eyes were slightly startled, she still kept this big guy?
It was not unreasonable for the owner of the amusement park to give this big bear to them. It was too big to hold, and even harder to keep and clean. But she still kept it, which suddenly made him feel a surge of emotion.
warm current.
On one side of the bed, there is a desk with some medical books neatly on it, and a computer, which is a bit old, but it is spotless. The mouse pad is cartoonish and has a bear pattern on it.
On the other wall is a set of wardrobes with four doors, and a set of curved storage compartments next to them. There are some odds and ends on the compartments, the most common of which are medicine bottles, some gauze, and a hot water bottle.
His heart suddenly ached again. He knew how much damage his kick had caused her, both internal and external injuries. Even the soldiers of the special brigade might not be able to restrain his strength, and he was going to die at that time.
She fought hard with Zuo Lingfeng, and her strength was even more ruthless. The sweep of her leg was really fatal to her, and their child was just gone.
He couldn't help but stepped forward, stood behind her, and hugged her distressedly.
Ye Xingchen was startled suddenly. He was still holding a kettle for watering the flowers in his hand. When his hand came loose, the kettle almost fell to the ground. He caught it with one hand and put it back on the window sill. Then he wrapped his hands tightly around her again, warming her up.
His big palms covered her waist and abdomen, as if he wanted to give her some warmth.
If the child was still alive, her belly might have been slightly bulging at this time, but now it is flat and nothing.
Ye Xingchen struggled subconsciously, but he fixed her body and prevented her from moving. His warm body came closer. She suddenly trembled, her eyes widened, and her fair face turned red uncontrollably. She hesitated on the spot.
At a loss.
Lou Xi hugged her wordlessly, resting his chin on her shoulder. His nose smelled the fragrance of her hair, a light floral fragrance, which smelled very good, but it was different from before. There was a trace of fragrance in her breathing.
Although the taste of the medicine was very light, he knew it was actually very bitter.
Ye Xingchen held her breath slightly, but her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably. At this moment, she was so nervous and frightened that she suddenly heard his deep voice fall on her ear, "Does it still hurt?"
His hands increased their strength at the same time, but they were still very light, for fear of hurting her in the slightest.
Her eyes were hot, she shook her head, and said quietly, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
He quickly tightened his arms, but he was in pain, it hurt almost to death, it hurt for her, and it hurt for their child.
"Lou Xi...I'm fine. The failure to save this child means that she has no fate with us, so stop thinking about it and stop blaming yourself. I know you didn't mean it. In fact, I have thought about this for a long time.
Let me tell you, but there has never been a chance, and my mood has been bad before, but now I am much better, especially these days after taking Sisi back to live, I have really gotten better, and I am still on vacation, and I am still in a bad mood.
There are some days where you can relax, but you... You should be going back to the army, right? Forget all these things before you go back. The loss of this child was an accident. Neither Sisi nor I want to see any other accidents.
,do you understand?"
She turned her back to him and spoke quietly, her soft voice was very calm. He couldn't see her expression, but he could imagine the sadness on her face at this moment.
"Let's stay for dinner later. Sisi will be very happy. It's been a long time since we had dinner together. But Rao Rao's attitude may not be very good. Please bear with it. She doesn't mean any harm. She is just worried about me. Don't
I care too much, besides, Rao Rao is Sisi’s godmother now, so you two need to live in peace."
"And Lou Yi, help me say sorry and thank you to him. Rao Rao was so rude that day, but he didn't care. When I was in the hospital, I only cared about Rao Rao. I also had the opportunity to say something to him. Please help me.
Just tell him."
"And..." Ye Xingchen wanted to say something again, but Lou Xi suddenly pulled her shoulders, and their eyes met. The expression on the slender face was very peaceful, not showing too many emotions, as soft as ever, but like this
He didn't know how to respond to her. She talked about everyone except herself. She was standing in front of him, but he felt that she was far away from him.
Maybe from now on, nothing will change. Marriage will continue, life will continue, and children may be born again, but... she doesn't seem to want to try any relationship with him again, because the lesson this time is profound enough, because they
There is not enough trust between them.
"Xingchen..." He was suddenly a little scared, more scared than when he lost his child, but she gently pushed him away and said softly, "I'm going to cook."
She pushed lightly, but his tall body shook heavily. He held his lips and couldn't say a word. Maybe he was too greedy. Maybe Lou Yi was right and he needed to give her more time. In addition,
They all need to learn how to run a marriage and... love.

"Let's eat!" Ye Xingchen and Shu Rao prepared four dishes and one soup together. Regarding Lou Xi's stay for dinner, the two of them remained silent. However, when they set out the dishes and chopsticks, it was for four people.
Shu Rao didn't know the inside story, but still cooked a fish. Ye Xingchen changed the position of the fish with another dish, deliberately moving it farther away. This action was too obvious, and it was difficult for Shu Rao not to notice it, but she didn't understand, Xiu Rao
His eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Lou Xi suddenly felt a glimmer of hope in his heart. She still cared about him.
During the meal, several people ate with their own thoughts. Only Sisi enjoyed the meal the most. For her, this situation was simply perfect. Not only did she have her parents, but she also had her godmother. Everyone was happy.
He loved her so much that the little girl was very happy.
After eating, Ye Xingchen and Shu Rao rushed to wash the dishes, but Lou Xi suddenly stood up and said, "I'll do it!"
Both of them were startled. Ye Xingchen quickly said no, but Shu Rao grabbed her and let Lou Xi do it.
Sisi wanted to watch a cartoon, and Shu Rao asked Ye Xingchen to watch it with the little girl. She crossed her arms and watched at the door of the kitchen. She wanted to see his joke, but she didn't expect that the man in the kitchen was actually doing it skillfully. Compared with
The airlines had so little space that he had to work so many times, washing dishes, washing dishes, wiping the sinks...everything was done impeccably.
Shu Rao bit her lip in displeasure, turned back to the living room, sat on the sofa and muttered, "Quite capable!"
Ye Xingchen glanced sideways slightly, without thinking too much, and answered naturally, "He often does housework."
Shu Rao felt even worse.
Lou Xi finished washing the dishes and then mopped the floor under Shu Rao's instruction. The floor was polished to a discernible shine. Shu Rao wanted to pick and choose, but couldn't find any problems, so he secretly felt sulky.
Sisi was still watching cartoons, but it was already dark. Shurao quickly went to the bathroom to put in hot water and prepare for Ye Xingchen to take a bath. She went to the Chinese medicine doctor specifically to buy medicinal materials and let Ye Xingchen take a medicinal bath every day.
Helps the body's recovery.
Because the medicinal bath takes a long time, Ye Xingchen takes the bath first every day. After she finishes, it is Shu Rao's turn. After both of them finish, Sisi takes a bath. This time adds up to a long time, so
Ye Xingchen did not dare to waste time and hurried back to the room to get a change of clothes.
On the sofa, Lou Xi was still watching TV with Sisi. Shu Rao finished putting in the hot water and came out. Her hands were still wet. She wiped them on her body casually, walked to the sofa, and looked down at Lou Xi, "
Battalion Commander Lou, it’s getting late, we’re going to have a rest soon, please come!”
Lou Xi knew that she was driving him away. Although he was reluctant, he had to get up, but Sisi quit and said, "Dad, let's sleep together!"
The little girl wants to let him stay.
Shu Rao really loves and hates Sisi, but no matter what, she won't agree!
After Ye Xingchen took the clothes, he went directly to the bathroom and did not notice the stalemate in the living room.
A moment later, she suddenly heard an exclamation from the bathroom, "Ah——"
Lou Xi reacted the fastest and rushed to the bathroom. Shu Rao also quickly caught up, "Xingchen, what's wrong with you?"
"I...I..." Ye Xingchen's voice trembled, unable to speak complete sentences. He stared at the Chinese herbal medicine in the bathtub, wondering why there were bugs in it! And the bugs were still alive and crawling on her body!
"ah--"
She wanted to climb out of the bathtub, but was too frightened to move. The space in the bathtub was small, so she stepped back a few times before reaching the end, so she could only scream.
"Xingchen! What's wrong with you? Open the door!" Shu Rao was so anxious that he slapped the door panel.
The door was locked, and she didn't have the key. Lou Xi pulled her behind him and said, "Stand away!"
Shu Rao didn't know why. He just felt that he was pushed two meters away. Then he heard a "bang" and the bathroom door was kicked open by him.
"Star——"
"ah--"
Lou Xi's sudden appearance made Ye Xingchen scream again, he, he, he... why did he come in?
She hugged herself subconsciously, but her clothes had been taken off a long time ago, and there was no foam in the bathtub. There were only some medicinal herbs floating on the water, which were not too many. She was completely seen by him!
Although the two of them had done more intimate things, she had never been so embarrassed in front of him. Her face turned red, and her whole body immediately felt like it was on fire, as red as boiled shrimps.
At the same time, Lou Xi was also stunned. It had been a while since she entered the bathroom, so he thought she had already finished taking a bath. She might have fallen because of the slippery floor while changing clothes, but she didn't.
He didn't expect it to be like this. Her graceful body was soaked in the water, looming, and his eyes suddenly tightened.
"Hey! Where are you looking? Why don't you help me quickly!" Shu Rao roared angrily.
Lou Xi finally came back to his senses, cleared his throat, and asked Ye Xingchen, "Can you...can you get up on your own?"
How could Ye Xingchen still have the strength? The fright he gave her was much greater than an insect!
"Insect, insect..." She stared at the water blankly, but found that the insect had gone somewhere. She could still see it and dodge it, but now she couldn't see it. She didn't know where it had gone.
She suddenly got excited again.
Lou Xi immediately stepped forward, bent down and fished her out of the water, then took out the bathrobe, quickly wrapped her up, and carried her out of the bathroom.
Ye Xingchen bit his lips in embarrassment, dying of shame and anger, so he had to close his eyes hard and deceive himself. He saw nothing, nothing!
After Lou Xi carried Ye Xingchen back to the room, he went back to the bathroom and carefully observed the bathtub. Finally, he found the troublesome bug on a medicinal plant. He put on his gloves and caught it decisively. Shu Rao found a can bottle.
, asked him to put the bugs inside, and she decided to go to the Chinese medicine doctor tomorrow to settle the score!
It took a long time for the fright to subside. Ye Xingchen was so frightened that she kept shivering while lying on the bed. Her body still felt weird and itchy, as if something was crawling. She subconsciously scratched here and there.
I scratched it, but nothing happened.
Lou Xi came back again and walked to the bedside. Seeing that she was still frightened, he couldn't help but bend down and said comfortingly, "It's okay, the bug has been found. You can sleep peacefully."
Ye Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe it was a psychological effect. His body seemed to be no longer itchy. He scratched the quilt, but his fingers still trembled slightly.
Lou Xi helped her tuck in the quilt, and then, as if he couldn't help himself, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "Good night."
A gentle kiss, like a drop of water, miraculously soothed Ye Xingchen's chaotic heart. She slowly closed her eyes, and then heard his footsteps slowly leaving. The door rang and she was gently taken away.
.
◎◎◎
At three o'clock in the night, Ye Xingchen got up and went to the bathroom. Passing by the living room, he suddenly found a tall body curled up on the small sofa.
How could he... sleep here?
It was an accident at first, but then he understood that she was frightened last night, and even Sisi had no choice but to go to bed with Shu Rao. Maybe he was worried, but Shu Rao was definitely not willing to keep him, let alone
Maybe she allowed him to go into the room to sleep with her, and she didn't let him sleep in Shujing's room. This was simply a deliberate test of him!
There was only a very thin and very small blanket on him, which could not cover his 1.8 meter body at all. It could only cover his waist. She immediately went back to the room and brought out a quilt. She held her breath, took off her slippers, and left her feet bare.
She approached him gently and carefully covered him with a very gentle movement. When she saw that he was not awake, she couldn't help but raise her lips.
She turned around and left quietly, but she didn't know that he had already woken up the moment she approached.
The next morning, Lou Xi left early without even saying goodbye. He only left a note and stuffed it under her door, telling her that there would be a commendation meeting in the military region on a certain day. He had been notified that he would be commended and that he could invite his family members to attend.
He wrote a few words at the end - I hope you can come.
