Chapter 1930: Chapter 1924: Follow Fate
Qin Xue was thinking about how Qin Yu would react upon meeting Qin Huaihe, but no matter how much she thought, she couldn’t understand the feelings of those involved. After considering countless possibilities, she decisively gave up on the matter, deciding to deal with it later when it actually happens.
In her heart, Uncle Lei was much better than any father. And in this life, Uncle Lei became the stepfather of this body, which means he was her father now. As for other people, she would leave it to fate and let relationships develop as they naturally would.
"Master, you’re back?" Xue Ling exclaimed happily when she saw Qin Xue walking through the door.
"Hmm, what happened?" Qin Xue noticed Xue Ling’s unusual demeanor. It was a rare sight, so she asked Xue Ling puzzledly.
"Xiao Qi came by, asking if Nangong Beiying was at our house. He seemed very anxious. I thought you were together, so when I saw you, I was happy. But now, I’m not sure." Xue Ling recalled that it hadn’t been long since Qin Xue and the others left, and Xiao Qi came looking anxious.
"Did something happen to them?" Qin Xue placed the pickles she was holding on the table and sat on a nearby chair, looking at Xue Ling.
"I don’t know." Xue Ling obviously didn’t know what happened—Xiao Qi didn’t state the situation when he came, and Xue Ling had no time to ask before he left. So Qin Xue asking now meant Xue Ling truly didn’t know the cause.
"Let’s not worry about it. Yingying is sensible; we don’t need to intervene." Qin Xue knew that Nangong Beiying always had her own plans. Among the three sisters, aside from being their adviser, she was an exceptionally rational woman, rational to a frightening degree.
Now, hearing what Xue Ling said, Qin Xue was only concerned for Nangong Beiying’s well-being and wasn’t really worried about anything else.
"Alright." Xue Ling wasn’t planning to interfere anyway. After spending a lot of time together recently, it knew Beiying’s importance to the master, so it felt a bit anxious when Xiao Qi came looking. But no matter how much, it wouldn’t cross into the boundaries of meddling in others’ relationships.
Moreover, Xue Ling knew that Nangong Beiying and Xiao Qi had to go through numerous trials to be together, so there wasn’t really anything worth worrying about.
"Have you all eaten yet?" Qin Xue asked the children at her feet.
"No, we’re waiting for mom." Yu Chen was quite the gentleman, always putting his mother first in everything, doing things that wouldn’t make life difficult for the adults. Qin Xue found her youngest son’s behavior both amusing and endearing, feeling that he was a little rascal despite his young age.
Especially when seeing the father-son duo getting into playful antics, Qin Xue always felt that was the happiest time. After all, what a family wants most is to live happily together. With these kids around, life certainly wouldn’t feel dull.
"Is that so, our Yu Chen is so good. And you all are amazing too." Qin Xue praised her youngest son without forgetting the other children. After all, everyone was waiting for her, even though their intentions might not be entirely ’pure’. Their main goal might be wanting her to cook, but the reliance when seeing her was undeniable. She decided to see what adorable antics the kids would come up with.
Meanwhile, Yu Chen crawled up onto Qin Xue’s lap, wrapping his arms around her neck, ensuring he wouldn’t fall off.
"Mom, where did you all go to play today? Why couldn’t we go?" Yu Chen asked Qin Xue with a hint of unhappiness.
