Chapter 12: Husband and Wife Reunite
But even so, he was unwilling to let go. Even if it meant dying, he still wanted to be tied to Jiang Xue. He hoped that after a hundred years, Jiang Xue would still carry his surname.
Jiang Xue naturally didn’t understand Mu Qiancheng’s thoughts. She guiltily withdrew her gaze, lowered her head, and didn’t notice Mu Qiancheng’s unusual behavior at all.
She lowered her head and looked at the already sleeping Little Reunion on the bed, thinking about what her first words should be.
Should it be ’You’re back,’ or ’Long time no see,’ or perhaps ’How have you been.’
However, before Jiang Xue could decide, Mu Qiancheng had already walked up to her, his gaze falling on the top of her head. He couldn’t see Jiang Xue’s expression and didn’t know if she was disgusted or angry at that moment.
One lowered their head, the other watched, neither of them spoke.
Until Little Reunion on the bed moved a bit, Jiang Xue seemed to be startled, nervously watching the child, thinking he was about to wake up.
But, whether Little Reunion was sensing something, he seemed to know his father was back, he just moved a bit and then stopped.
Seeing Little Reunion still sleeping soundly, Jiang Xue breathed a sigh of relief. She had been really nervous just now, afraid Little Reunion would wake up and cry again. She didn’t have milk, couldn’t make formula milk, and didn’t even know how to change a diaper.
She was somewhat afraid of letting Mu Qiancheng see how incapable she was, afraid he would despise her.
Fortunately, Little Reunion was accommodating and didn’t wake, sparing her the embarrassment as a new mother.
"Xue’er!" Finally, after who knows how long, Mu Qiancheng spoke. His voice was a bit hoarse, as if he hadn’t spoken for a long time. If one listened carefully, they could still hear a trace of trembling and apprehension in his voice.
