Chapter 339 Aunt
After getting off the train, Lu Xiaoya unknowingly returned to her aunt's home.
The old lady's home was indeed in the provincial capital, but there were also remote areas in the provincial capital, and the other party's home was in the most remote corner.
Realizing she was straying further and further off course, Lu Xiaoya's legs went weak and she felt increasingly panicked. She unconsciously glanced at the old woman beside her.
The woman was about fifty or sixty years old, with a kind and gentle face. When she saw her looking over, she smiled at her, and her smile became even more amiable, making it easy for people to let their guard down.
She stepped forward and held Lu Xiaoya's hand tightly. "What's wrong, girl? Your palms are sweaty. Are you too tired? Don't worry, we'll be at Auntie's house soon."
Suddenly, he changed the subject and sighed.
"I've had a hard life. My only daughter died when she was young. You look a bit like my daughter. When I see you, it's like seeing my daughter who died young. I feel so close to you."
Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaoya felt a little less nervous.
However, she gradually noticed that something seemed wrong with her body. She felt dizzy, her body felt weak, and she started to walk unsteadily.
The elderly woman beside her seemed oblivious, steadily helping her walk forward.
Even if Lu Xiaoya was completely unaware of the dangers of the outside world, she could sense that something was amiss. She remembered the glass of water she drank when she got off the train earlier that day.
I suddenly felt uneasy, flustered and confused.
However, Lu Xiaoya forced herself to calm down. She clenched her fists tightly to stay calm and did not immediately confront the old woman. Instead, she subtly tested her, making the old woman wary of her.
"Auntie, we've gotten along so well on the way here, so let me tell you the truth: my husband works in the military in the provincial capital."
"My husband and I had a fight this time, so I ran back to my parents' home in Nanshan County. He said he knew he was wrong, but because he was busy in the army, he couldn't come to my parents' home to pick me up in person."
"He called and told me to come back by myself. He said he would pick me up at the provincial capital's train station. He must be looking for me frantically by now. I should leave him a message. Although my relationship with my husband is not good, I am pregnant with his child."
"His family cares a lot about this child."
As Lu Xiaoya spoke, she reached out and touched her stomach, her eyes reddening, and sighed.
"Auntie, do you think he's only so good to me because of the child...?"
The older woman standing nearby suddenly fell silent. After a long while, she looked down at Lu Xiaoya's stomach and said, "How many months pregnant are you? You don't look like you're pregnant, do you?"
Lu Xiaoya carefully touched her belly again. "It's been three months. It doesn't look like I'm pregnant yet, but I am. You can feel it if you don't believe me, Auntie."
"My husband and I have been married for so many years but haven't been able to have a child. My husband's family is really hoping for this child. Although they don't care about children, they do care about this child."
"They probably haven't picked me up yet, they're probably looking for me everywhere, or rather, they're looking for the baby in my belly."
Where no one could see, the old woman's expression changed slightly.
Gu Shu drove his jeep to Nanshan County Railway Station, made some inquiries, and finally found out that Lu Xiaoya had indeed bought a train ticket to the provincial capital.
The other party has already arrived in the provincial capital at this point.
He frowned, his face growing increasingly dark and grim.
They actually managed to run away.
Gu Shu immediately used his connections to call the train station staff in the provincial capital, asking them to keep an eye on Lu Xiaoya's situation and to detain her.
Immediately afterwards, he rushed to the train station in the provincial capital.
……
night.
Qin Yunzhou still couldn't coax Xu Sui, so he could only sleep alone in the empty house, lying in the cold quilt.
Xu Sui also slept with the two children. Although the two children slept in bunk beds, the beds were not small; they were custom-made to adult sizes.
It's barely enough to squeeze in.
Qin Yunzhou couldn't fall asleep until late at night; he tossed and turned, unable to drift off.
This was the first time he had ever experienced such insomnia.
I've tried countless methods but still can't fall asleep.
So Qin Yunzhou got up and went downstairs to a secluded spot to smoke a few cigarettes.
In the pitch-black night, smoke swirled, blurring his face.
The smoke was a bit pungent, causing him to cough a few times.
When he returned from his last mission, Commander Zhou tipped him off, saying that the position would most likely fall to him, and that he should work hard.
However, so much time has passed, yet there has been no further progress.
On the contrary, Gu Shu, who was transferred back here from Beijing, soon gained attention from his superiors.
There was only one seat available, and only one person could sit in that seat between Gu Shu and Gu Shu.
This time he physically assaulted the person.
That position is basically out of his reach.
Because he could tell that Commander Zhou was really angry. The people above him were already wavering between him and Gu Shu, and now they had completely handed over their leverage to the other side.
However, Qin Yunzhou did not regret doing so. If he could do it all over again, he would still go and fight Gu Shu.
Even if you lose those material possessions, you can still strive and fight for them.
However, when it comes to his wife at home, and especially to that kind of thing, Qin Yunzhou simply cannot ignore it.
However, he would never back down from what was rightfully his. The matter was not yet settled, and there was still room for maneuver.
It's almost December, and the weather is getting colder, especially the wind at night, which is even more biting.
Qin Yunzhou waited downstairs for a while until the smell of smoke on his body dissipated.
He then returned home, went to the two children's room, and carried the sleeping Xu Sui into their room.
The door closed.
Qin Yunzhou covered Xu Sui with the blanket, then lay down in bed, embracing his wife's soft and slender waist, and fell asleep comfortably, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Having one more person definitely makes a difference.
The bed suddenly felt warm, unlike before when it was always cold when he slept alone, making it impossible to fall asleep no matter how much he tossed and turned.
The next morning.
When Xu Sui woke up, she didn't think much of it at first, but when she got out of bed, she realized something was wrong and was stunned.
She remembered that she was sleeping with Yao Yao last night, so how did she end up back in her and Qin Yunzhou's bedroom?
At first, Xu Sui thought she had misremembered, but upon closer inspection, she realized she hadn't misremembered at all.
