A reborn woman abducts her husband: after emptying his pockets, she marries a military officer.

Chapter 199 Extra Chapter 1: The Seed of Doubt

Having spent so many years in the entertainment industry, Guo Qiming wasn't just wasting his time. In order to survive, he cursed and swore that he would never oppose Cheng Yi again, and that he would use his connections to help find the real culprit behind the scenes, give Cheng Yi an explanation, and clear his own name.

Xiao Wu's instructions were to teach Guo Qiming a lesson, not to actually kill him. After threatening him with a cold face, he kindly told him a name.

After Xiao Wu left, Guo Qiming collapsed onto the carpet like a lost dog, his face full of despair, his mind blank.

This name is very familiar to Guo Qiming; he is Guo Qitai, his half-brother.

He was a year younger than him. Three months after Guo's mother died, Guo's father brought his stepmother back to take care of him and raise him.

Guo Qiming was deeply grateful and treated his stepmother as his own mother, always giving her the best food and toys to his younger brother from a young age.

He even excitedly bought gifts for his stepmother and younger brother after earning his first pot of money...

After graduating from university, Guo Qitai needed to start his own business. He had been working in the entertainment industry for three years and had given all the money he had saved to Guo Qitai to start a company.

He couldn't believe that his beloved younger brother, whom he had always cherished and raised, would hire someone to frame him...

He didn't sleep that night, and perhaps after being reminded by the man in black, Guo Qiming suddenly discovered many suspicious points.

Several times he returned home without informing his family, and the originally warm and joyful atmosphere became quiet and awkward because of his return. Each time, Guo Qitai would come over, put his arm around him, and take him upstairs to leave...

Another time, while socializing outside, he was persuaded to drink and felt nauseous. In the restroom, he overheard someone joking with Guo Qitai about how much money he had swindled from a sucker. Unfortunately, he was too impulsive at the time and couldn't stand being slandered by Guo Qitai. He rushed out and got into a fight with the other person. Because Guo Qitai took a punch for him, he fell out with the other person...

Not long after, in a high-end restaurant, he saw Guo Qitai fraternizing with the other man and dining with a beautiful woman.

After having his suspicions, Guo Qiming specifically called Guo Qitai to question him. Guo Qitai's answer at the time was that he had business dealings with the other party and couldn't afford to offend them for the time being...

Once the seed of doubt was planted, Guo Qiming felt so frustrated he wanted to crack open his own head...

After Xiao Wu returned to her space, Qin Yingxue leisurely took a shower, dried her hair, turned off the lights, and went to sleep.

Teaching Guo Qiming a lesson tonight was just a side effect; the real key was to tell him that person's name so he could step in and clear his son's fans' names.

I went to bed late last night, but it didn't affect my biological clock at all.

Qin Yingxue opened her eyes as soon as it was eight o'clock, stretched, put on her slippers, and went to the bathroom to wash up.

After going downstairs, the old housekeeper, wearing his reading glasses, had already returned from grocery shopping. Seeing Qin Yingxue watering the flowers in the courtyard downstairs, he couldn't help but smile and say, "Madam, I bought the second young master's favorite braised pork knuckle. I'll have Zhang Ma stew it right away, so the second young master can eat it when he wakes up."

Qin Yingxue nodded, thought for a moment, and then instructed, "Add some rock sugar."

"Alright!" Guan Jiale happily went to the kitchen.

Qin Yingxue watered all the flowers, washed her hands, and returned to the dining room, where breakfast was already prepared.

A poached egg and a glass of warm milk.

I had just finished breakfast when a hand wrapped around my neck: "Mom, good morning."

"Hurry up and eat breakfast so you can pick up your older brother."

Qin Yingxue patted the back of his hand and chuckled softly.

"Okay!" Song Shiyao immediately sat down obediently across from him. When he saw that he had an extra bowl of vegetable salad, he immediately protested: "Uncle Zhang is really something. I don't even film anymore, and he still makes me eat grass."

"Those three fried eggs are just for show!" Qin Yingxue rolled her eyes at him, annoyed.

"Three isn't enough to fill us up!" Song Shiyao muttered.

"Eat quickly, or we'll be late." Qin Yingxue noticed the water droplets still on Song Shiyao's hair, and helplessly got up to grab a dry towel. She walked over to Song Shiyao and helped him dry his hair. "Did you go for a run this morning?"

"He even performed a set of boxing moves." Song Shiyao stuffed the whole fried egg into his mouth, chewing as he said with a smug look on his face.

"Be more refined. Eating so rudely will scare the girls," Qin Yingxue gently patted her son.

"It's good that you're scared, otherwise you'll be buzzing around me like a fly all day long, it'll be so noisy..." Song Shiyao muttered.

"Song Shiyao, do you dare to speak a little louder?" Qin Yingxue said sternly.

"Mom, dear Mom, I won't do it again." Seeing that Qin Yingxue was about to get angry, Song Shiyao quickly surrendered.

"Of the three brothers, you're the most glib-tongued!" Qin Yingxue rolled her eyes at him, tossing him a dry towel. "Dry yourself!"

Song Shiyao casually draped a towel over his head and gave Qin Yingxue a shameless smile: "Mom, my older brother is back. Is he staying at home or outside?"

Qin Yingxue lived in the suburbs, an hour and a half drive from the city. For convenience, the three brothers got their own houses when they were sixteen, and even Song Yanchuan mostly lived in the dormitory.

However, the three brothers rarely saw each other, and they developed an unspoken agreement that whoever had time would choose to stay with Qin Yingxue in the suburbs.

Upon his return, Song Shiyan had completed his studies and obtained a medical doctorate, and was invited to Yanjing Hospital.

However, Yanjing Hospital is a two-hour drive from the suburbs, and the round trip would take four hours a day, which is why Song Shiyao asked this question.

"Let's see what your older brother does!" Qin Yingxue said calmly.

My son is growing up and needs his own private space.

She was the one who suggested buying the house. As a mother, she would be content as long as her parents could see her and have a meal with her in their spare time.

"Mom, don't you love us anymore?" Song Shiyao asked Qin Yingxue in a coquettish tone.

Other mothers would love to tie their sons to their bodies with a corset.

They only had their own mother, and since childhood they had seen each other very little. Their mother never took the initiative to look for them, and even kicked them out when they were sixteen...

"Silly boy!" Qin Yingxue ruffled his short hair helplessly. "Hurry up and go upstairs to change your clothes, or your older brother will be back soon."

"Okay." Song Shiyao was once again taken aback by his mother's attitude, but he was used to it. He shook his head and ran upstairs in a few quick steps.

After Song Shiyao changed his clothes, he asked, without much hope, "Mom, are you coming with me to the airport to pick up my older brother?"

On New Year's Eve, my older brother received a phone call and hurriedly flew back to Sweden. We hadn't seen each other for ten months.

"No, you can go pick it up." Qin Yingxue waved to Song Shiyao while holding the book in her hands.

Helpless, Song Shiyao took the car keys and walked outside.

Besides the flowers and plants in the yard, his mother's favorite things were reading and listening to music.

Now he finally understands that his younger brother's love of reading is something he inherited from their mother.
