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

Chapter 194 This is too fantastical!

Qin Yingxue gently tapped the screen, and strangely, the screen, which was originally only the width of a thumb, began to glow. A small, glowing sprite flew out of the screen, flapping its wings and looking at Qin Yingxue with a fawning expression.

This is too fantasy!

Qin Yingxue gently tapped the little elf and casually said, "Give me a hamburger."

The little elf flapped its wings, and soon a still-warm hamburger appeared in Qin Yingxue's hand.

While munching on a hamburger, Qin Yingxue ordered the little elf to buy her this and that, and finally asked it to massage her shoulders. Unfortunately, the little elf was too small and its strength was too light, so the massage was as if it hadn't done anything.

Qin Yingxue wanted to test what other functions it had when she heard footsteps outside.

Qin Yingxue could only put the little elf into her wristwatch, then straightened her slightly wrinkled clothes and got up to open the door.

Outside the door, Zhu Huiwen had just returned, looking radiant. Seeing Qin Yingxue at home, he smiled and said, "Yingxue, it's almost time. I'll go prepare dinner first."

"Mom, hold on, I have something to tell you." Qin Yingxue stopped Zhu Huiwen and said with a serious expression.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Huiwen was taken aback, then asked somewhat flusteredly, "Has something happened? I heard outside that Qing'er is being targeted, has something happened to him...?"

"Mom, don't worry, Qing'er is alright." Qin Yingxue quickly reassured Zhu Huiwen when she saw that his face had changed.

Regarding Song Shiqing and Old Zhou, Song Yanchuan and Qin Yingxue decided after discussion not to tell Zhu Huiwen the truth.

I was afraid she would overthink it or worry about it.

Unexpectedly, the secret she and Song Yanchuan kept was eventually found out by Zhu Huiwen.

"Are you really alright?" Zhu Huiwen looked at Qin Yingxue with suspicion.

She didn't believe it at first. If Qing'er had really had an accident, her son and daughter-in-law wouldn't be so calm, and the three children in the family would still be going to school as usual, getting up in the morning and coming home in the afternoon...

But the man's story was so convincing that she couldn't help but believe it.

"Qing'er's intelligence has been discovered, and that person has recommended Qing'er for the gifted youth program. Qing'er will leave tomorrow and will return once a month thereafter," Qin Yingxue said slowly.

"Qing'er is only eight years old. He can't take care of himself. Can he not go?" Zhu Huiwen's face turned pale, and she said with a face full of reluctance.

Qin Yingxue looked at Zhu Huiwen and shook her head.

This can't be kept secret. Once Qing'er leaves tomorrow, her mother-in-law will find out.

“Mom, the children are growing up and will eventually leave us. Qing’er has been smart since she was little, and the gifted youth class is full of top-tier intelligence in the country, future pillars of society, and are key protected individuals by the state. Qing’er will only have a better life there…”

Qin Yingxue comforted Zhu Huiwen, but in doing so, she was also trying to convince herself.

"No matter how good someone is, nothing beats home. No matter how attentive others are to him, they're never his parents..."

Zhu Huiwen's words were like a thorn, piercing directly into Qin Yingxue's heart.

"Mom..." Song Yanchuan, who had come home early from get off work, saw this scene and quickly shouted.

Zhu Huiwen suddenly realized what was happening and saw Qin Yingxue's pale face and trembling body, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

In this family, Yingxue must be the one I miss the most!

She is a mother of three, and she carried them for ten months and raised them with all her heart and soul...

"Yingxue, don't listen to my nonsense. You always know that your mother doesn't know how to talk..."

Zhu Huiwen didn't even know what she was saying; the more she talked, the worse it got, until she finally shut her mouth, her face full of frustration.

Song Yanchuan strode over with his briefcase in hand and winked at Zhu Huiwen: "Mom, go to the yard and greet the children. We're going out for dinner as a family tonight."

"Okay, sure." Zhu Huiwen nodded quickly, glanced at Qin Yingxue with concern, and then walked outside.

"Yingxue, Mom didn't mean it, don't take it to heart." Song Yanchuan walked to Qin Yingxue's side, put his hands on her shoulders, and comforted her with a face full of concern.

"I know." Qin Yingxue gave a wry smile. "I'm fine... I just want to be alone..."

After Qin Yingxue finished speaking, she went straight back to her room without even glancing at Song Yanchuan.

Song Yanchuan pursed his lips, watching Qin Yingxue's desolate figure, and involuntarily clenched his fists, slamming them hard against the wall.

Cracks suddenly appeared on the wall that was originally painted white.

Just then, the children's voices came from the yard: "Grandma, we're back!"

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back." Zhu Huiwen's face lit up with a familiar, warm smile, her eyes gazing eagerly at Song Shiqing, who was walking at the back. She waved to him, "Qing'er, you're back..."

"Song Shiqing, come to my study with me."

Zhu Huiwen was about to say something when she was interrupted by Song Yanchuan, who had just appeared.

Song Shiqing looked up at Song Yanchuan and silently followed him toward the study.

Zhu Huiwen immediately wanted to follow them out of concern, wanting to hear what the two were talking about, but Song Shiyan grabbed her hand: "Grandma, I'm hungry."

"Eat some fruit if you're hungry. Your dad said we're all going out to eat tonight." Zhu Huiwen gently wiped the sweat from her eldest grandson's face.

"Oh, we can have a big meal tonight!" Song Shiyao cheered from behind.

Zhu Huiwen quickly stopped him: "Shh, keep it down, your dad is talking to your brother!"

"Grandma, where's Mom?" Song Shiyan asked when he didn't see Qin Yingxue.

"Mom isn't feeling well and is resting in the bedroom..." Before Zhu Huiwen could finish speaking, she saw her two grandsons stop eating their fruit and run towards the bedroom.

Zhu Huiwen looked at the half-cut fruit and a helpless expression appeared on her face.

In the study

Song Yanchuan turned and silently looked at his youngest son, who hadn't even grown to his waist yet, his heart heavy: "Qing'er, Dad knows that once you make up your mind, you won't easily change it. But Dad still wants to ask you, are you really determined to go to that gifted youth program? Can't you stay for your family, or for your two older brothers?"

Song Shiqing's face tightened, and without even thinking, she shook her head firmly: "No."

"Can't you even do it for your mother's sake?" Song Yanchuan asked again, unwilling to give up.

This time, Song Shiqing did not answer directly, but lowered his head and looked at his toes.

Song Yanchuan's heart leaped with joy. He knelt down and saw tears glistening in Song Shiqing's eyes. His heart softened, and he hugged him tightly. "Although Dad always says that a real man should stand tall and be independent from a young age, making a name for himself so he can better protect his family, you're still young. You don't need to shoulder these responsibilities so early. Besides, Dad is capable of protecting you now..."

"Dad, I'll leave you and Mom sooner or later," Song Shiqing said to Song Yanchuan with a serious expression.

Seeing the resolute expression on Song Shiqing's face, Song Yanchuan understood his thoughts and couldn't help but sigh: "Then you should spend some quality time with your mother tonight, she..."

"Okay." Song Shiqing nodded and walked straight outside.

Song Yanchuan was somewhat amused and exasperated, and got up to rub his temples.
