Endless Marital Battles - C243 But he can't give her a life
But he can’t give her a life
Xiao Yan sent Qiao Mo to the inn, but Huo Xing did not come in, he only said: “I’m next door, call me if you need anything.”
Xiao Yan nodded and carried Qiao Mo into the room.
But the moment Xiao Yan placed her from his embrace onto the bed, she cried out. Her body had already been put on the bed by Xiao Yan, but her two arms were still tightly wrapped around his neck.
Xiao Yan lowered his handsome face and looked at her. He planned to pull her arm down and fetch hot water to wipe her face and hands, but Qiao Mo’s eyes had turned red from crying and his face was also white and red. She could not help but cry.
Xiao Yan lowered his head to kiss her, then kissed her lips and forehead. He slowly pulled her small hands down and coaxed his: “Xiao Mo, listen to me, your husband will go and get some hot water to wash your face.”
Qiao Mo didn’t let go at all, her eyes were hazy, “Don’t… “Don’t go…”
Subconsciously, this person was the only one she could rely on right now. She was like a floating log in the sea. Once she let go, she would sink forever into the sea and would never be able to come back up again.
Xiao Yan reached out his hands, probed her cold face and hands. Not knowing what else to do, he leaned over and kissed her on the forehead, then asked in a low and hoarse voice: “Then I’ll go up and sleep with Little Mo for a while, okay?”
Qiao Mo first nodded, then shook her head with all her might. Unable to determine Qiao Mo’s thoughts, Xiao Yan stroked her long hair and asked again: “Do you want it?”
Qiao Mo was crying so hard that she could barely keep her eyes open, but she slowly opened them and looked at him wet. She wasn’t sure who he was, but she asked in a soft voice, “Who are you … Who exactly are you … My husband can. Only then can we sleep together. “Who are you?”
Xiao Yan laughed softly, and while taking off his coat and shoes, he went up to remind her: “Didn’t Little Mo ask about it just now? I’m Little Mo’s husband. ”
It was unknown if Qiao Mo was really drunk, or if she was subconsciously trying to numb herself, “Oh …”
As soon as she touched his warm body temperature, her plump little body automatically stuck to him as she got pregnant. She hugged his neck with both her hands and called his name: “Xiao Yan … Are you really Xiao Yan …? Why … I think I’m dreaming? ”
Xiao Yan held her tightly, “Really. Little Mo, quickly go to sleep. ”
“… “Then are you still going?” She thought for a moment, then opened her eyes in worry as she stared at him.
“I’m not leaving.”
“Really?”
“Yes.” “Really.”
Qiao Mo curled the corner of her lips, and the corner of her mouth faintly smiled. After adjusting a position in his embrace, she comfortably closed her eyes, and her chin gently rested on her forehead. As for the little woman in his arms, she had fallen asleep, satisfied.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Yan had not slept at all, his mind heavy and his eyes open.
The person in his embrace was already fast asleep and would not wake up anytime soon. He lightly called out: “Little Mo? Little Mo? ”
There was no movement from the person in his embrace at all.
Xiao Yan carefully removed Qiao Mo’s arm from her neck and laid on the narrow bed. He looked at the little girl sleeping soundly for a long time before he finally rolled over and got off the bed.
When he came out, he knocked on the door next door. Huo Xing was still awake.
… ….
Huo Xing walked out of the room. The two men looked at each other and understood each other.
The two of them, who were originally at odds with each other, had now become so well-coordinated because of Qiao Mo.
Xiao Yan’s expression was completely dark, and his gaze could not be seen clearly. He said: “Qiao Mo might wake up later, you take good care of her.”
Huo Xing nodded.
Xiao Yan glanced at the door to Qiao Mo’s room and sighed, “I’m going.”
He turned around and walked two steps when Huo Xing suddenly called out to him.
“Xiao Yan, why are you doing this? You clearly still love Qiao Mo, why did you leave her and make her sad? ”
Xiao Yan turned his face slightly to the side, and from Huo Xing’s point of view, the corner of his mouth raised slightly upwards. He said: “I don’t have any other hope right now, I only hope that she will be happy for the rest of her life. But I might not be able to give her a lifetime. ”
“Since that’s the case, why did you chase us all the way here? Honestly, did you actually get here before me? Isn’t it? So much so, that you followed Qiao Mo up the mountain last night? ”
Huo Xing made a bold guess.
Xiao Yan laughed coldly, “So what? Today, she would not remember that I had come here. Even if he had an impression, it was an illusion that appeared out of her unconsciousness. I hope you can keep the promise we made. ”
Huo Xing opened his mouth, then finally said one sentence. “Xiao Yan, you’re really too cruel to Qiao Mo!”
Xiao Yan remained silent and left in big strides.
… ….
Huo walked into Qiao Mo’s room, but she was still sleeping, not wanting to vomit, and didn’t seem to be uncomfortable. It was just that when she slept until the early hours of the morning, she frowned and reached out her hand to look for something, and as she touched her side, her eyebrows knitted even tighter, as if she did not find what she was looking for.
Qiao Mo’s consciousness was still not clear, or perhaps, she simply did not want herself to wake up and face reality.
Huo Xing who was leaning against the side of the bed, just as he woke up, he saw that she had climbed down the bed barefooted. She had stretched out her arms as she muttered, “Ah Yan … Ah Yan… ”
Huo Xing was startled, and immediately went over and pulled her arm, and anxiously asked: “Qiao Mo, what are you doing? “Where are you going?”
Qiao Mo muddle-headedly shook her head, and sobbed: “I’m going to look for Ah Yan …”
“How about you put your shoes on first?”
Qiao Mo turned her head to look at him, “And who are you …?”
Huo Xing could only hug her as he said, “I’m Ah Yan. Little Mo, stop running around. Ah Yan is here. ”
He carried her in his arms and Qiao Mo stood on the ground barefooted, allowing him to carry her. She asked dumbly: “You are … Ah Yan? “Why do I feel like …”
She pointed at his face and looked at him drunkenly, “Why do I feel like … You and Ah Yan … It doesn’t look like it? ”
Huo Xing ignored her and coaxed her like a child, “Go and lie down in bed. If Little Mo doesn’t listen, then Ah Yan won’t like you. Do you know? ”
Huo Xing pulled her over to the bed. Qiao Mo suddenly threw away his hand, took a few steps back barefooted, and shook her head in denial, “You aren’t Ah Yan …! You’re not. I’m going to look for Ah Yan… ”
Huo Xing was stunned and only then did he explain himself. “Qiao Mo, look clearly, I’m Huo Xing! Don’t run around. It’s very cold outside at night. If you go out now, you will freeze to death. ”
Qiao Mo stood at the side of the door and muttered: “Huo Xing? “You are Huo Xing …?”
Huo Xing did not dare to approach, afraid that Qiao Mo would run the moment he opened the door.
He only dared to say softly, “That’s right, I’m Huo Xing.”
Qiao Mo seemed to have finally gotten to know him, but she was not happy at all. Her small mouth puckered, and her nose wrinkled as tears rolled down her face. She held onto the door handle and pitifully said: “But I’m going to find Ah Yan …”
Huo Xing could only lie to her, “Qiao Mo, you be obedient. Come over to my place and I’ll take you to find me. We will definitely be able to get your Ah Yan back. ”
Qiao Mo first walked two steps forward with hesitation while barefooted, then suddenly thought of something, as she shook her head and hands, her tears flowing as she said, “No, that’s not right! You definitely won’t take me to look for you! ”
“I’ll take you there, okay?”
“I want to find it myself …” Ah Yan doesn’t like to see me with you … If I don’t go looking for him. He won’t come with you to see me … ”
She ran back to the door, pulled it open, and ran out.
Startled, Huo Xing quickly chased after her.
Without even wearing his shoes, he ran out of the hotel barefooted. Huo Xing had known Qiao Mo for so many years, but it was his first time seeing Qiao Mo lose control like this.
She was unconscious. After six months of pregnancy, she could actually run barefoot into the snow to find someone she liked so much that she went crazy.
Qiao Mo had really gone mad.
The snow outside was already very thick. If she were to step on the snow, it would be enough to cover her feet. Her footsteps were already unsteady. She was once again in the icy cold of the snow, and she fell into the snow after a few steps.
Fortunately, the snow was soft. If he fell down, there wouldn’t be any pain, nor would he harm the child.
The moment she fell to the ground, Huo Xing saw that the person in the corner hadn’t left yet. He was still standing guard outside.
Huo Xing chased after him, but did not support Qiao Mo who was in the snow. He gasped for breath, and looked at the shadow that was not far away.
As their gazes met, Huo Xing seemed to say, “Your wife, you take care of it yourself.”
But that person, had been standing there the entire time, and had no intention of coming out to see Qiao Mo.
In the snow, Qiao Mo’s clothes were thin, her bare feet were red from the cold, she was crying and making trouble.
Huo Xing finally could not stand it any longer and ran over to Qiao Mo and pulled him into her embrace.
“Qiao Mo, listen up, don’t look for Xiao Yan, he won’t come to see you. Forget about him. Shall we go back to the house? If this goes on, you will get sick. ”
She didn’t want to, so she fell on the ground and called out Xiao Yan’s name. Her heart was torn as tears fell one by one onto the soft snowy ground, smashing holes in it.
She grabbed Huo Xing’s collar and continued to ask, “Why didn’t Ah Yan come to see me? Did I do something wrong? I’ll change, I’ll change, okay …? ”
Huo Xing choked with sobs. In the end, he had still pressed Qiao Mo’s face into his chest.
He looked at the man not too far away and said word by word, “Since he’s not by your side now, there’s no need to stay in the future. Qiao Mo, I, Huo Xing, will take care of you in the future. Even if … “Even if…”
Even if … She did not love him.
However, these were all things that he was willing to give up for her.
“Can we go back to the house now?” Huo Xing asked as he supported her weak body.
Qiao Mo cried until she had no more strength left, then suddenly she became obedient and nodded. “Mn, let’s go home, go home …”
Huo Xing carried her in his arms. She was clearly pregnant, so her body should be very heavy. However, Huo Xing felt that there was not a single weight left in his arms. He could almost feel that there was no weight left in his arms.
Qiao Mo hugged his neck, like an obedient kitten, but her eyes were still red, making him feel extremely pained.
“Qiao Mo, even if you don’t have Xiao Yan in the future, I will still be by your side. You must behave yourself and live a good life, understand?”
She still hadn’t woken up, she only knew that the person hugging her was not Xiao Yan. She wrinkled her nose, and her tears fell like a child’s tears, “But I want Ah Yan … I love Ah Yan… ”
“But Ah Yan … He doesn’t want you anymore, you know? ”
Huo Xing said softly. Qiao Mo’s consciousness was hazy, she had not heard it at all. She continued to pull at Huo Xing’s clothes and pleaded, “Can you take me to Ah Yan?”
Seeing that she hadn’t given up yet, Huo Xing could only come up with another excuse. “How are you going to find me without my shoes on? I’ll take you back home and put your shoes on before I come out again, okay? ”
Qiao Mo earnestly and obediently nodded her head heavily. She was afraid that Huo Xing would break his promise and not bring her with him.
