After both of them spent some tender moments together, Mianmian woke up. After Xiao Li fed her, the family of three went downstairs.

In the living room downstairs, Mr. Qin was playing chess and Mrs. Qin was drinking coffee. It was extremely quiet.

After the banquet ended yesterday, everyone from the Qin’s side of the family left. Even Qin Tan’s family of three did not stay in the Mountain View District. Instead, they returned to their villa in S City.

The family was back to being by themselves.

Mrs. Qin was drinking her coffee when she saw Xiao Li and the others coming down. She quickly put down her coffee and stood up to take Mianmian from Xiao Li…

Mrs. Qin said, “Little Li, you must be hungry! Hurry up and eat first.

Your father and I have eaten. I’ll carry the baby…”

Xiao Li smiled and nodded before going with Qin Xiao to have breakfast together.

In the dining room, as soon as Qin Xiao and Xiao Li arrived, Auntie Wu served the dishes. They were all dishes that suited Xiao Li’s taste.

After a month of nutritious meals, Xiao Li’s eyes lit up when she saw the different dishes on the table. She quickly sat down and ate eagerly…

Qin Xiao sat at the side and smiled as he watched her eat. From time to time, he would pick up a piece of food for her…

After Xiao Li took a few bites, she started to slow down and feed Qin Xiao from time to time.

In the dining room, the young couple, Qin Xiao and Xiao Li, were feeding each other affectionately…

In the living room, Mr. and Mrs. Qin were playing with their granddaughter…

Little Mianmian had just been fed and slept well, so she was in good spirits. Mrs. Qin had just carried her to the sofa when Mr. Qin stopped playing chess and came over to tease his granddaughter.

There were many boys in the Qin family. The Qin family had given birth to only boys two generations ago. When Mrs. Qin was young, she had always regretted giving birth to boys.

Now that Xiao Li had given birth to a daughter, this was Mr. and Mrs. Qin’s first granddaughter. They were naturally overjoyed.

After Xiao Li had eaten, she saw that Little Mianmian was in good spirits. Thinking that she had just fed her and would not look for her now, she wanted to go upstairs and take a shower. She was too tired last night and had fallen asleep without taking a shower. Now she felt uncomfortable…

After informing Mrs. Qin, Xiao Li went to the second floor to take a shower. However, just as she went up and was about to take her clothes, her phone rang.

Xiao Li picked up her phone and saw that it was a message from her best friend…

Feng Ye Piaopiao: [Little Lili, are you awake or asleep?]

Xiao Li was a mother now. Her usual routine was messed up, so Feng Qing and the others didn’t know when she would be awake and when she would be asleep.

Every time they sent a WeChat message, the first thing they would ask was whether Xiao Li was awake or asleep.

If Xiao Li replied, they would have a chat. If she didn’t, they wouldn’t send WeChat messages and would wait for her to reply.

When Xiao Li saw the message, she directly replied…

Xiao Li: [I’m awake. What’s wrong?]

Feng Ye Piaopiao: [Nothing. I just want to see if you’re done resting. If you are, I’ll chat with you for a while.]

Feng Qing and the others had also come to the first-month birthday banquet yesterday, so they naturally knew that Xiao Li was very tired.

However, they had something to tell Xiao Li. There were too many people yesterday, so it was not appropriate to say it…

Xiao Li: [I’m done resting. What do you want to talk about?]

Zhi was moved by you: [We want to talk to you about the wounds on your back…]

Xiao Li smiled and replied: [The injury on my back has recovered very well. Don’t worry.]

Disappearing Wen Jing: [We’re not worried about your wounds. You’re in our hospital, so of course we know that your injuries are almost healed.

We’re worried about the scars on your back, Little Lili. Do you think your uncle will mind the scars?]

Zhi was moved by you: [Most men value a woman’s appearance.You have scars on your back although you can’t see them. But when you and your uncle are in bed, he will see them. Do you think your uncle will…?”

Feng Ye Piaopiao: [Little Lili, do you want to go for plastic surgery to get rid of the scars after you recover…]

Xiao Li fell silent for a moment as she read the messages from the three of them.

She was not worried that Qin Xiao would despise the scars. After all, Qin Xiao’s feelings for her would not change just because of the scars.

In her previous life, her face was disfigured and her leg was broken. Her image was worse than now, but Qin Xiao still protected her wholeheartedly.

Compared to Qin Xiao’s change of heart, Xiao Li was more worried that every time Qin Xiao saw the scars, he would recall the scene when she was seriously injured. This was too cruel to Qin Xiao.

After Xiao Li’s surgery, when Feng Qing and the others went to the ward to visit Xiao Li, they told her what Qin Xiao looked like at the entrance of the operating theater.

Actually, there was no need for Feng Qing and the others to say anything. Xiao Li could imagine that a person who was always by her side must have been tormented waiting alone outside the operating theater when she was seriously injured…

Therefore, how could Xiao Li bear to let Qin Xiao relive such a scene again and again?

Xiao Li took the phone and replied, [My uncle won’t mind. His heart will only ache every time he looks at them.

And I don’t want his heart to ache…]

Feng Ye Piaopiao: [So your idea is…?]

Xiao Li: {No idea. Let’s talk about it in a few days!

I’m going to take a shower.]

Xiao Li put down her phone after sending the message, took her clothes, and went to take a shower.

As she showered, Xiao Li touched the scars on her back and wondered if she should remove them.

Seeing that Xiao Li had not come down for a while, Qin Xiao took the sleeping Mianmian from Mrs. Qin and went upstairs.

After entering the room, Qin Xiao placed Mianmian in the crib to sleep before knocking on the bathroom door. “Nini, are you done showering?”

Qin Xiao’s voice pulled Xiao Li back from her thoughts. “I’m almost done. Why are you up here? Is Mianmian hungry?”

Now, in the Qin family, other than Mianmian needing to drink milk when she was hungry, Qin Xiao and the others would carry Mianmian to find Xiao Li. They would not let Xiao Li do anything else.

Like coaxing her to sleep! Changing her clothes! Giving her a bath! There was no need for Xiao Li.

Sometimes, there was no need for Xiao Li to feed her. For example, last night, she had a good sleep. When the child was hungry, Qin Xiao would settle it with a meal of milk powder.

Xiao Li sometimes called herself an artificial milk bottle.

Qin Xiao said, “No, Mianmian is asleep. I saw that you took a long time to shower, so I just checked on you.”

Ever since Xiao Li’s accident, as long as Xiao Li left Qin Xiao’s sight for a little longer, he would be worried.

Xiao Li knew that this was the aftereffect of that incident. It was very difficult to eliminate it immediately…

As Xiao Li wiped her body, she said, “I just came up and chatted with Feng Qing and the others for a while. I was delayed a little. I’ll be done soon.”

Qin Xiao smiled and said, “There’s no hurry. Take your time…”

Although Qin Xiao said that there was no hurry, Xiao Li was indeed done showering and came out in her clothes.

The moment she came out, she saw Qin Xiao already waiting there with the hairdryer.
