Seeing her mother's eyes wide open, her brows tightly knitted into the shape of a "川" character, and her face full of anger staring at her, Qin Qia's heart suddenly sank, and her face was suddenly full of guilt. With a trace of panic and uneasiness in her eyes, she hurriedly said: "Mom, after the baby is born, I will definitely call him back!"

Her hands unconsciously tugged at the corners of her clothes, wrinkling them. She lowered her head slightly, not daring to look directly at her mother, as if she was a child who had done something wrong and was waiting to be punished.

Qin Yi's mother sighed heavily helplessly, her eyes full of disappointment. She shook her head slowly, a smile as bitter as chewing bitter herbs appeared on her face: "When I came in earlier, I was complaining that he was not at home. But it turns out that you are so overbearing and tyrannical!"

Qin Yi felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this. Her brows slightly furrowed, and a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes. She pouted her lips and said with a bit of willfulness: "Mom, don't I just want to be alone? There are old people at home, and many things are inconvenient!"

She clasped her hands tightly against her chest and turned her head away, looking at the wall beside her, as if there was something interesting on the wall that could attract her attention.

Qin Yi's mother looked at her daughter, her eyes widened instantly, revealing an expression of disbelief, her mouth slightly opened, as if she couldn't believe what she heard. Her body trembled slightly, and one hand unconsciously covered her chest, as if her daughter's words hit the softest part of her heart.

Qin Yi continued, "Besides, I've also had my horoscope read and they said that the old man in the main family has bad luck and will affect the continuation of the family line! I've been in a bad mood, isn't it because I can't get pregnant? Now that he's gone, look, I'm pregnant right away!"

There was a hint of pride on her face, as if she was looking for a reason for her decision, but there was a hint of confusion in her eyes.

"You are so confused! How can you believe those lies? You will get old too! How would you feel if your children treated you like this?"

Qin Yi's mother was so angry that her face turned red, and her hands kept shaking. She pointed at Qin Yi with her fingers, and her fingers turned white because of the force. There was a flame of anger burning in her eyes, as if she wanted to devour Qin Yi.

Her breathing became rapid and her body leaned forward slightly, as if she was about to rush over to teach Qin Yi a lesson.

Qin Yi felt annoyed. She frowned her crescent-shaped eyebrows and pouted her cherry lips slightly, as if a small oil bottle was hanging on them. She shouted coquettishly, "Oh, Mom, are you here to take care of me or to teach me a lesson? I've already told you that I will call him back after I give birth to the baby." As she spoke, she gently patted the edge of the bed with her fair and slender hands, her face full of impatience and a hint of grievance in her eyes.

Qin Yi's mother looked at her daughter like this, her lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but she swallowed the words back.

She just stared at her daughter quietly, her eyes revealing complex emotions. The helplessness was like the thick fog in late autumn, permeating her eyes; the heartache was like the drizzle in spring, falling gently; and there was a trace of unspeakable worry, like the dark clouds looming in the sky.

She just stood there silently, motionless, as if time had stopped at this moment. Only her slightly trembling hands revealed her inner unrest.

At this moment, Liu Duan gently pushed open the door with a smile as bright as the sun on his face, which seemed to dispel the dull atmosphere in the room.

He said, "Qinyi, get up quickly! Look, the golden sunlight has already passed through the gaps in the curtains and playfully sprinkled on the floor, as if urging you to start this beautiful new day."

His voice was like a spring breeze, soft and warm, with a hint of playfulness, as if he was joking with a close friend.

Seeing the mother and daughter sitting opposite each other, the atmosphere seemed a little depressing. Liu Duan stood at the door and was slightly stunned.

Then Liu Duan smiled and joked, "Mom, you and Dad go enjoy breakfast first! He also specifically told me that if I don't wake Qinyi up quickly, the delicious food will be swept away by him! Qinyi, you should also go and wash up quickly. I don't want our baby to be a lazy bug in the future! Otherwise, when he grows up, I will tell him everything about his mother's "funny" today!"

As he spoke, he blinked mischievously, his eyes full of love and pampering. That look was like the brightest star in the night sky, shining with warm light.

When Qin Yi heard this, her originally depressed mood instantly disappeared, and her eyes suddenly lit up, like the twinkling stars in the night sky. She immediately jumped off the bed, her movements as light as a dancing butterfly.

As Liu Duan no longer stopped her, her face was filled with a happy smile, like a child who got a favorite toy. Her rosy face, like a ripe apple, exuded a breath of happiness.

Qin Yi's mother looked at her son-in-law with heartache, her eyes full of gratitude and relief. She nodded slightly and replied softly, "Okay, okay, I'll go right away." Then she turned around and walked out of the room slowly, her steps were slightly heavy. Every step seemed to carry her concern for her daughter and her expectations for the future.

Liu Duan hurriedly stepped forward, carefully supported Qin Yi, and said gently: "I have prepared toothpaste and water for you. My dear, you are like a noble princess in my heart. I will take good care of you and the baby!"

His eyes were full of concern and care, as if Qin Yi was the most precious treasure in his life. His focused expression was as if the whole world only had the two of them.

Qin Yi raised her head and looked at Liu Duan, with a happy smile on her face. Her smile was like a blooming flower, delicate and moving. Accompanied by Liu Duan, she slowly walked towards the washroom, her heart filled with beautiful visions of her future life. Her steps were light and firm, as if every step was towards the other side of happiness.

Qin Yi's mother walked into the living room with light footsteps, which were almost imperceptible in the quiet space. She slowly came to the dining table and sat down slowly and carefully beside her husband, as if she was afraid of disturbing the tranquility. There was deep guilt in her eyes, and the guilt was like a deep lake, rippling in her eyes.

Her lips trembled slightly, and she said slowly: "Qinyi has changed, our daughter has really changed!" There was an imperceptible tremor in her voice, and her hands clenched tightly unconsciously.

Qinyi's father raised his head and revealed a faint smile on his face. The smile was a little forced, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes: "She must have gained weight. Your woman married a good husband! We should be thankful!" As he spoke, he picked up a piece of side dish and put it in his mouth, chewing slowly, his movements seeming a little mechanical.
