Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1487: Chapter 868

"Xiao Xing..." Watching the car drive off into the distance, Mr. Qi withdrew his gaze and awkardly pointed at the house, "In this place, should we live here?"

"Let’s stay here." Qi Xing nodded, helped Granny Qi into the house to sit down, and continued, "Luo Ye’s already put it that way. If we don’t stay, it seems pretentious.

But, thinking about it, what she said makes sense. Dad and Mom are hardworking, and Qinzi is exceptionally efficient. Staying here should be mutually beneficial."

"And what about me?" Granny Qi grumbled, pulling her arm away from Qi Xing’s support, "In your eyes, Granny is just an old waste."

"Granny..." Qi Xing hurried to comfort her, "Look at you getting all anxious. We haven’t even gotten to you yet. You’re an honorary member, responsible for chatting with those who love a good talk but find it hard to move around. No salary, is that okay?"

"Yes, yes, of course." Granny Qi chuckled happily, "As long as I’m not considered useless, anything is fine. Look at these old bones of mine..." The old lady stretched her arms, "So sturdy! It’d be a waste to remain idle."

She yawned while speaking, "I’ve gotten older; once I miss my sleeping time, I can only lie awake until dawn. Off to bed I go! Dongshan (Qi Bai’s full name Qi Dongshan), you all should sleep too. Whatever’s left, we’ll handle tomorrow."

"Grandma..." Yue Qin awkwardly stood up, "I... I’ll sleep with Yan’er."

"Bang!"

Granny Qi closed the door firmly without looking back.

"Bang!"

At the other side, Mr. and Mrs. Qi also shut their door, and in a flash, only the young couple remained in the hall. Yue Qin twisted her clothes uneasily, "Maybe I... I’ll sleep in the living room."

"Wife, let’s discuss this back in the room." Qi Xing forcibly dragged her into another bedroom, closed the door, and looked seriously at Yue Qin, "Qinzi, it’s been a few years since we got our marriage certificate but I haven’t given you anything; it’s really unfair to you.

What belongs to you, I won’t let anything be lacking. Rest assured, before I officially bring you into my home, I won’t touch you.

But if I just leave you alone, Granny and Mom and Dad won’t feel right. Let me stay, okay?"

"Okay." Yue Qin nodded with a flushed face, quickly glanced at Qi Xing, and felt a melancholy. Although she looked over thirty, he appeared to be around twenty-five or twenty-six, and he was so handsome...

After they lay down clothed, Qi Xing reached his arm to embrace Yue Qin. Her body stiffened slightly, but she did not pull away.

"Something on your mind?" Qi Xing gently asked.

"No."

Qi Xing sighed softly, "Qin, I can guess what you’re thinking. But, what’s the cause of all of this? If it hadn’t been for you arduously supporting the family, would you have been so worn out?

At any time, only I am not worthy of you, never the other way around. Do you understand?"

"I’m not tired." Yue Qin’s body slightly relaxed, "Being with Granny, Dad, and Mom makes me really happy. You know what I have longed for since childhood. I am really happy."

Qi Xing sighed softly, "I believe you, but at the same time, you are my wife. Over the years, I never fulfilled my duties as a husband, while you always supported me by taking care of both the old and the young at home.

So, starting today, let me take on the responsibility of this family. You just need to be my happy little wife."

"Okay." Yue Qin’s voice carried a hint of choking, "Hearing you say this makes all the hardship worth it."

"Silly girl." Qi Xing gently turned her to face him, and as Yue Qin quickly covered her cheeks with her hands, "Don’t look, I’m ugly."

"In my eyes, you are the most beautiful woman in the world." Qi Xing gently pried her fingers apart and planted a soft kiss on her cheek, "I love you."

The gentle sound of sobbing echoed in the room. Qi Xing cradled Yue Qin’s trembling shoulders without attempting to console her; over the years, she had suppressed her desires and burdens too long. It was better to let it all out.

In his heart, he was also filled with self-blame. In the past, he always thought he couldn’t bring them out due to conditions, but now he realized that without actively seeking solutions, finding the right opportunity in a lifetime may never come.

"I... I’m old and ugly. If I go out, I’ll only embarrass you." Yue Qin finally stopped crying, and her first words were just like that.

"You’re just overthinking this again. Didn’t I tell you, in my eyes, you’re the prettiest." Qi Xing gently pat her back, "I swear, I mean every word."

"Standing next to Luo Ye and Zhu Hongyu, I just look horrendous." Yue Qin muttered under her breath.

"They are much younger than you, why compare yourself to them?"

"Isn’t your circle filled with these pretty female officers?"

"You!" Qi Xing expressed his helplessness, "So, you’ve been thinking about nonsense all this time? Why? Am I really that untrustworthy?"

"No." Yue Qin waved her hands in perplexity, "It’s not that I don’t trust you; it’s practically speaking. With your current situation, it would be easy to find a young, beautiful girl to be your wife. With me, I... I always feel like I’m holding you back."

"You only help me, never hold me back, no more wild thoughts, go sleep." Qi Xing said as he tucked in her blanket, "Keep overthinking and I’ll have to discipline you right here and now."

"You..." Yue Qin’s face turned as red as a cloth, but she truly didn’t dare make another sound. Her heart brimmed with sweetness like it was about to overflow with honey.

Lying down for a while, she started to feel anxious again, "Qi... Qi Xing, do you... do you really like me?"

"You little woman, how many times do I have to say it for you to believe?" Qi Xing flipped over angrily, pressing himself on top of her, fixing her head with both hands, forcing her to look at him, "Do you think I would marry you if I didn’t like you?"

"No..." Yue Qin’s gaze wandered, her lips moved a few times, unable to articulate anything coherent.

"What nonsense are you thinking again?" Qi Xing forced her to look at him, "No lying, communication is the most important thing between a couple, you said so yourself."

"I... I just feel... feel you’ve been too calm, isn’t it supposed... supposed that men... men and women are different..." Yue Qin stuttered for a long time before managing to finish her sentence.

"Different?" A flash of understanding crossed Qi Xing’s face, realizing what she meant, he shook his head helplessly, pulling her hand to explore his lower body.

Yue Qin was so scared she instinctively withdrew her hand.

Her strength may be great, but compared to Qi Xing, it’s like the difference between an ant and an elephant, and so, even amidst her struggle, her fingers still touched a hard object.

"Feel better?" Qi Xing’s voice was filled with helplessness; heaven knows how much he’s been holding back, yet this woman teases him with such words.

By now, Yue Qin was too embarrassed to say a word.

Though she’s been a wife for years, but... but she really doesn’t understand such matters!

...

While Qi Xing was enduring sweet punishment, Luo Ye was finding Liu Xing, heading towards the parking lot of the school ground; if it weren’t for the urgent situation, Luo Ye wouldn’t have stirred Liu Xing up in the middle of the night.

"Do you know why I’m looking for you?" Once they sat in the car, Luo Ye stared at Liu Xing with a serious expression, "Don’t play dumb with me."

Without hesitation, Liu Xing answered, "I really like Xia Yingru."

"Really?" Luo Ye scrutinized him, "Are you sure you’re telling the truth? No other reason?" It’s not that she’s being narcissistic, but she must clarify.

Believing that her seeking Liu Xing at this time, he should be able to guess why she came to him, and as they walked the entire way, he barely spoke; if her assessment is correct, he should be pondering how to handle her questioning.

Liu Xing nodded, "Really, her persistence moved me."

"Alright, I can choose to believe you, but you need to know, this matter can’t tolerate any falsehood; if Chairman Qian discovers you’re using Xia Yingru, then, not only you will be in trouble, but the Luo Family, the Wen Family, will be implicated to a certain extent.

Though Chairman Qian wouldn’t do anything against these families, putting a bit of pressure on some matters can lead to immeasurable losses, given his position.

Moreover, Xia Yingru cannot sway Qian Xia’s decisions; if the Qian Family and Qian Xia insist on doing something, she can’t stop them.

If all of this is intentional, I have nothing to say. If I’ve misunderstood, then I’ll just regard myself as being over-attached."

Luo Ye’s words clearly showed she didn’t believe Liu Xing’s claim.

She believes she definitely isn’t being over-attached.

Having known Liu Xing for two lifetimes, she’s roughly aware of his temperament; if he could easily change affection, he wouldn’t be him.

He was adamant about denying it, simply because he didn’t want to burden her mentally.

He played dumb, she couldn’t follow suit.

After she spoke, she kept her eyes fixed on Liu Xing, after a moment, she sighed lightly, "You haven’t practiced enough, speak the truth."

"Could you not be so sharp?" Liu Xing smiled bitterly, "All along, I haven’t been able to help you much, rarely do I have such a convenient condition, of course, I want to take advantage."

Luo Ye thought for a moment, "Can you tell me, do you have any feelings for Xia Yingru?"

Liu Xing shook his head.

"Alas!" Luo Ye sighed heavily, "She’s also prone to stubbornness; if she finds out why you’re with her, this matter couldn’t end well.

I’m not worried about what the Qian Family might do, I’m afraid of Xia Yingru doing something drastic, the more lively a girl seems, the less she should be underestimated.

Sometimes, they just deeply hide their concerns, masking their real thoughts with a smile.

If, I’m just saying if, she has an accident because of this, everyone’s conscience will be uneasy, so you understand why I’m so eager to find you in the middle of the night, right?"
