Chapter 238 A Fict.i.tious Land Of Peace Away From The Turmoil Of The World
Now that she was pregnant, it was a pity that she could not sleep in the wild.
Huo Yunqi held Xia Luobing’s hand and walked on. The lush trees began to shrink, and his field of vision gradually widened. It seemed that he could hear the tinkling of the spring water beside his ears.
“This is?” Xia Luobing’s eyes widened as she looked at Yunqi in disbelief, “Is there a stream?”
Huo Yunqi smiled and said, “I’ll show you.”
Xia Luobing hurriedly took the lead and obediently followed Yunqi. As she got closer and closer, she seemed to have felt the moist air pounding her face.
“The road ahead is a bit rough. I’ll hug you.” Huo Yunqi turned around and before Xia Luobing could express his opinion, she had already reached his waist and picked him up.
Leaning against Huo Yunqi’s embrace, he listened to her powerful heartbeat and enjoyed his care contentedly.
There was no such thing as a natural born woman. When she met him, the iron-blooded criminal police captain had also become a girl who liked to rely on others.
“Oh, what clear water.” When Xia Luobing saw who was coming down from the rocks, the murmuring water seemed to flow through his body, making his entire body feel incomparably comfortable.
Huo Yunqi placed Xia Luobing on a large rock and saw her bend down to play with the water. He pulled her back with his wrist and seriously warned, “No!”
“The water is very clear.” Charlotte explained, “I like it very much.”
“Cool.” Huo Yunqi’s words clearly didn’t leave any room for discussion. “You’re pregnant, you can’t catch a cold.”
Xia Luobing’s heart itched badly, but she had to admit that Huo Yunqi’s words were reasonable. She thought about it and could only sigh, “This can wait for the baby to be born in the future.”
Along the reverse direction of the flowing water, the two of them talked as they walked. They walked around a huge stone and saw man-made stone steps, one next to the other.
“Where does this lead to?” Xia Luobing turned around and asked Huo Yunqi, “Do you know?”
Yunqi shook his head and encouraged, “You can go take a look.”
Xia Luobing was in good spirits and didn’t feel tired after walking for so long. He immediately acknowledged Huo Yunqi’s suggestion, “Alright, let’s go immediately!”
It was as if she had returned to a very small, very young age, with light footsteps, to explore the joyous yet unknown world.
“There’s a house over there, a cabin.” Xia Luobing covered his mouth in surprise, his eyes sparkling.
If there wasn’t a trace of reason, she really thought that she had entered the fairy tale world.
Huo Yunqi followed behind Xia Luobing, looking at the joy and excitement emanating from Xia Luobing’s body, he curved his lips.
His ice is really easy to satisfy.
“The road ahead is not easy to walk. I’ll support you. Slow down.” Huo Yunqi took a step forward and held her arm to prevent the woman from getting too excited.
Xia Luobing helplessly nodded and leaned against Yunqi, “I wonder if there’s anyone in that house.”
Was the person living inside a princess or an elf?
After walking for about ten minutes, Yunqi and Xia Luobing stood at the door of the wooden house.
This was a very exquisite house, each of which was handled perfectly. The vines with small purple flowers crawled all over the roof, and the windows were decorated with unknown green plants, giving off a strong sense of hope.
“The owner of the house must have put in a lot of effort.” Xia Luobing sighed. Her gaze fell on the neatly trimmed flower beds in the courtyard. She became even more determined. She looked at the tightly shut door and regretted, “What a pity, Master is not here.”
Otherwise, he could go in and admire it. The house’s appearance was so beautiful, so it would definitely be better inside.
“Close your eyes.” Huo Yunqi doted on Xia Luobing and said, “I’ll summon the owner of the house.”
Xia Luobing laughed out loud, but seeing Huo Yunqi’s serious expression, she obediently closed her eyes.
Huo Yunqi grabbed Fu Ran’s hand and placed the item in her palm. He smiled and said, “Alright.”
Feeling the coldness in his palm, Fu Ran opened his eyes and looked at the bright key. He looked at Huo Yunqi in surprise, “This is …”
“Open the door.” Huo Yunqi smiled.
Seeing Xia Luobing reveal a simple child-like pleasant surprise, he immediately felt that everything was meaningful.
Xia Luobing stared blankly at Huo Yunqi. Her eyes were wet. At this moment, there was nothing she did not understand.
“Thank you.” Charlotte’s eyes reddened.
Fortunately, she met him.
Yunqi Huo smiled and said, “Captain, do you want to wipe away your tears?”
“Can’t you?” Xia Luobing glared at Huo Yunqi and bent her lips to open the door. Hearing a “click”, she pushed the door open with both hands and covered her mouth in surprise.
Once upon a time, she thought that if she could build a house in a place with mountains and water, it would be very simple. It was just the natural color of the tatami and the curtains made of bamboo.
The furnishings in the room satisfied all her fantasies.
There was a set of tea set on the tatami table in the living room. Listening to the sound of the stream outside, one could only feel that everything was peaceful and distant. It was so beautiful that it was unreal.
“Do you like it?” Huo Yunqi walked over and whispered.
Charlotte turned around and stared fixedly at the man in front of her. From the beginning until now, she and him had walked so hard step by step.
Fortunately, he had been persisting. Fortunately, he did not give up on her.
Xia Luobing reached out and wrapped her hands around Huo Yunqi’s waist. Her cheeks were pressed against his chest and she whispered, “Thank you.”
Thank you for loving me. Thank you for still loving me.
Huo Qiyou placed his hand on Xia Luobing’s back and gently stroked it twice, teasing, “Is ice supposed to be promised with your body?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Luobing’s warm lips landed on Huo Qiyou’s lips. The warmth and coolness coincided with each other. Everything was perfect and unreal.
The sunlight fell on the stream outside, reflecting a dazzling light.
Huo Yunqi sat on the tatami and Xia Luobing’s head rested on his lap. She narrowed her eyes and smiled, “It would be good if she lived here for the rest of her life.”
“Sure.” Huo Yunqi played with Charlotte’s hair and smiled, “But we’ll have to wait for a while.”
Once he had settled the affairs of City A, he could fulfill any of her wishes and accompany her wherever she wished.
Xia Luobing laughed softly and held Huo Yunqi’s arm in her arms. “I feel very happy … but I’m so sleepy …” she said softly.
The upper and lower eyelids disobediently fought, seeing that she still had a lot to say to him.
“You’re tired. Sleep obediently.” Huo Yunqi gently rubbed Xia Luobing’s temples and helped her relax. “Ice, have a good rest.”
Ever since she became pregnant, she had become sleepier than before. Adding on the fact that she had traveled so far, she was not in a good mood at this moment.
“Huo Yunqi, don’t go …”
Xia Luobing murmured with her eyes closed. Not long after, she fell asleep, her breath moving evenly.
Huo Yunqi curved the corner of his mouth and reached out to pull the thin blanket over her body. He sat quietly by the side and looked at the sleeping woman in his arms, his eyes filled with love.
“Bing Bing, I will always guard you.”
He wished he could turn her into a small pendant and carry her around every day, so how could he leave?
The sunshine was just right. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. He looked out of the window, and his eyes were filled with verdant greenery. It was really beautiful.
Xia Luobing woke up from hunger. She opened her eyes in a daze. She smelled a seductive fragrance. She lifted the blanket and got up. She walked towards the kitchen. She stood at the door and looked at the man’s serious cooking profile. Her heart was warm.
“If someone finds out that President Huo is cooking in the kitchen, I wonder how many women want to kill me!” Xia Luobing teased.
But a serious cook is really handsome.
Huo Yunqi put the last dish on the plate and looked up at Xia Luobing and teased, “So Bing Bing, do you want to reward me?”
“A sweet kiss.” Xia Luobing walked over and kissed the man’s face on tiptoe.
Huo Yunqi’s eyes narrowed, and his gaze fell on her fair cheeks. Then, his gaze slowly descended, landing on her still flat lower abdomen. He said sadly, “There are still eight months left!”
It’s torturous.
At first, Xia Luobing did not understand what he meant, but when she saw the man’s blazing eyes, her cheeks turned hot. She glared at him and walked towards the living room in embarra.s.sment and anger.
Does this person need to be so direct?
The dishes on the dining table were full of color, fragrance, and taste. Just a glance at them made one feel that they must be delicious.
“You actually know how to cook so many dishes?” Xia Luobing’s eyes widened as she looked at the dishes on the table and then at Yunqi’s face, unable to recover from the shock.
Huo Yunqi gave Fu Ran the soup and glanced at her, “Eat.”
Apparently, he wasn’t satisfied with the woman’s evaluation.
“Delicious.” Xia Luobing ate a mouthful of fish and narrowed her eyes in satisfaction. He looked at Yunqi and teased, “I don’t like other people’s food anymore.”
Huo Yunqi raised his eyebrows, “Someone else?”
Apart from him, who else could cook for her?
Seeing Huo Yunqi’s serious expression, Xia Luobing couldn’t help but laugh, “Hotel chef!”
This person, do you want to be so stingy?
However, she really liked it in her heart.
“Eat at home in the future.” Huo Yunqi placed the dishes on the plate in front of Charlotte and said, “You eat too little.”
Xia Luobing originally wanted to refute, but she couldn’t resist the temptation of delicious food and unknowingly ate a lot more food than usual.
“So full.” Xia Luobing touched her round belly and looked at Huo Yunqi with a sad expression. He threatened fiercely, “You are not allowed to cook in the future.”
Why did this person make the food so delicious, and it was so delicious for her appet.i.te?
If this continued for a long time, she would definitely become a little pig.
This was not a pleasant thing to do.
“If I raise you into a pig, no one will like you anymore.” Huo Yunqi brought out the fruit and placed it in front of Xia Luobing, “I’m relieved.”
The corner of Xia Luobing’s mouth twitched. He rolled her eyes at Huo Yunqi and snorted, “Good idea.”
After giving birth, she slimmed down and worked out.
Because the location of the house was chosen very well, one could see the sky outside from the window at night. The deep sky was filled with many stars, shining brightly.
