My husband disappeared after a flash marriage, but I am pregnant with his child

Chapter 228 Qiao Qin's Background

Yan Xuexue stood there quietly, letting the breeze brush across her face, her vision blurred by tears.

She looked at Huo Yan's receding back, her heart filled with bitterness and loss.

The beautiful memories of the past kept emerging in her mind like a picture scroll. They ran together on the grass, their laughter echoed in the air. They lay under the tree together, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, and imagining the future.

But now, all this has become the past and can never be undone.

Yan Xuexue slowly squatted down, hugged her knees with her hands, and buried her head in her arms. She didn't know where to go. After so many years of persistence and waiting, this is the ending...

After a long time, Yan Xuexue stood up, wiped the tears from her face, and decided to start her life again, no longer bound by past feelings. Perhaps Huo Yan was right, she had to learn to let go and find her own happiness.

at the same time.

In a luxurious villa, Qiao Qin sat quietly on the soft sofa in the living room.

She placed one hand gently on her slightly bulging belly, her eyes filled with tenderness and expectation.

From time to time, she looked at the door and the window. The bright sunshine was shining in the garden like a golden veil. Colorful flowers were blooming, sparkling with brilliant colors under the sunlight.

The breeze blew gently, and the leaves rustled.

Qiao Qin tilted her head slightly and looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window, but a trace of uneasiness quietly spread in her heart. She didn't know whether Huo Yan would be able to handle things smoothly this time. Since she became pregnant again, she seemed to have become more sensitive and worried.

Every minute and every second of waiting seemed like a long torture, and her heart seemed to be tightly pulled by an invisible thread.

Finally, the sound of a car engine was heard outside the door.

Qiao Qin's eyes, which had been somewhat dim, suddenly brightened up. She immediately stood up and walked towards the door hurriedly but carefully.

The door was slowly opened, and Huo Yan's tall and straight figure appeared at the door.

Crystal clear tears instantly welled up in Qiao Qin's eyes. She rushed forward impatiently and hugged Huo Yan tightly.

She wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, as if she was afraid that he would disappear if she let go.

"You're finally back. I was so worried about you." Qiao Qin's voice was a little choked, filled with deep attachment and worry.

Huo Yan gently stroked Qiao Qin's hair, his movements as gentle as if he was stroking a precious treasure, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, I'm fine."

His voice was deep and magnetic, and seemed to have the power to soothe people.

Qiao Qin raised her head and looked at Huo Yan, her eyes full of concern. Her eyes were like clear lake water, reflecting Huo Yan's figure, and her voice was trembling a little.

"Is everything resolved?"

Huo Yan nodded slightly, his eyes firm and confident: "It's all solved, don't worry."

His words were like a reassurance, and Qiao Qin's anxious heart finally settled down.

Qiao Qin breathed a sigh of relief and hugged Huo Yan tightly again, feeling his body temperature and breath, and her heart was filled with a sense of security.

Huo Yan patted Qiao Qin's back gently, his movements were gentle and doting, and said, "Okay, don't worry. You are pregnant now, you need to rest well."

The two walked into the living room hugging each other and slowly sat on the sofa.

Huo Yan held Qiao Qin's hand tightly, his eyes full of deep love, his voice firm and powerful: "From now on, we will live our lives well and will never be disturbed by the outside world again."

Qiao Qin smiled and nodded, leaning on Huo Yan's shoulder, feeling his warmth.

"Well, we will always be happy."

Qiao Qin's voice was soft and sweet, full of longing for the future.

As the days passed, Huo Yan and Qiao Qin continued their sweet life. Huo Yan was very caring towards Qiao Qin. He would accompany her every day, cook delicious food for her, and take walks with her.

Qiao Qin was also immersed in this happiness, looking forward to the birth of the baby.

this day.

The sunlight shines through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows and onto the balcony of the villa, forming patches of warm light.

Qiao Qin leaned lazily on the comfortable recliner, closed her eyes slightly, and enjoyed this peaceful moment.

She placed one hand gently on her slightly bulging belly, feeling the beating of the new life, her face filled with a happy smile.

The breeze blew gently, ruffling Qiao Qin's hair and bringing a hint of coolness. In the distance, the rolling green hills contrasted with the blue sky and white clouds, forming a beautiful picture.

Suddenly, the crisp ringing of a cell phone broke the silence.

Qiao Qin slowly opened her eyes, picked up the mobile phone on the small table next to her and saw that it was a call from her mother. A surge of joy suddenly surged in her heart.

"Hello, Mom." Qiao Qin's voice was full of joy.

"Qinqin, how have you been recently?" Qiao's mother's voice came from the other end of the phone, full of concern.

Qiao Qin raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and her mother's gentle face appeared in her mind.

"Mom, I'm fine. How are you and Dad?"

"We are all fine, Qinqin, Mom has good news to tell you." There was a hint of excitement in Qiao's mother's voice.

Qiao Qin sat up straight with curiosity, her eyes full of anticipation.

"What good news?"

"Mom is so happy when she knows you're pregnant again, so she decided to come and take care of you. She'll be here this afternoon," said Qiao's mother.

Qiao Qin was moved when she heard this.

She knew that her mother had always cared about her, but she didn't want to overwork her parents, especially since her mother's health was not very good.

"Mom, there's no need to be so troublesome. You and Dad just need to have a good rest at home."

"How can that be possible? You are pregnant now and need someone to take care of you. Mom is worried about you." Mother Qiao said firmly.

Qiao Qin knew she couldn't persuade her mother, so she had to agree.

"Okay, Mom. Then be careful on the road."

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Qin's lips curled up unconsciously, and she was in an extremely happy mood. She had already begun to imagine the scene after her mother arrived, and her heart was full of anticipation.

Time passed quickly, and in the afternoon, a car slowly drove into the yard of the villa.

Huo Siqian was playing in the garden. When he heard the sound of a car, he ran over immediately. When he saw his grandmother getting out of the car, an excited smile appeared on his face.

"Grandma, you're here." Huo Siqian shouted as he ran.

When Mother Qiao saw Huo Siqian, a kind smile appeared on her face. She squatted down and opened her arms to welcome Huo Siqian who was running towards her.

"Siqian, do you miss grandma?"

"Think about it."

Huo Siqian answered obediently, then threw himself into his grandmother's arms.

Mother Qiao hugged Huo Siqian tightly and kissed him on the face.

"Siqian is so good." She took out the toys she brought for Huo Siqian and said, "Look, grandma brought you a toy."

Huo Siqian took the toy and said happily, "Thank you, grandma." He took the toy and ran to the side to play with it impatiently.

Mother Qiao looked at Huo Siqian's cheerful figure with a gratified smile on her face. She walked into the villa. Qiao Qin heard the noise and came out to greet him.

"Mom, you're here." Qiao Qin went forward and hugged her mother, her eyes full of joy.

Mother Qiao smiled and said, "Yes, Mom is here to take care of you."

She looked at Qiao Qin carefully, her eyes full of concern, "Look at you, you're pregnant again, you must take care of yourself."

As soon as Qiao's mother entered the villa, it was like a warm spring breeze, instantly filling the whole house with vitality.

She first packed her luggage with skillful and neat movements, then walked into the kitchen and checked the ingredients in the refrigerator. While looking at them, she was thinking about what nutritious food to make for Qiao Qin. She decided to make a sumptuous dinner for Qiao Qin to nourish her body.

In the kitchen, Qiao's mother was cutting vegetables skillfully. The knife blade and the chopping board made a rhythmic sound, as if playing a warm symphony.

The soup in the pot is bubbling and steaming. The rising steam fills the air, carrying a strong smell of home.

While she was busy, she was thinking about Qiao Qin's childhood. At that time, Qiao Qin was still an innocent and lovely little girl who always surrounded her and asked her to tell stories.

Today, Qiao Qin has grown up and has her own family and children, but in her heart, Qiao Qin will always be the little girl who needs her care.

Night fell quietly and dinner was soon ready.

Qiao's mother cooked Qiao Qin's favorite dishes, including braised pork, sweet and sour spare ribs, steamed fish, and also stewed a pot of nutritious chicken soup.

The delicious dishes on the table are mouth-watering. The family sits around the table and enjoys a delicious dinner.

Huo Yan returned home early. The moment he saw Qiao's mother, a bright smile immediately appeared on his face. He said enthusiastically, "Mom, you're here. Welcome, welcome."

Mother Qiao looked at Huo Yan, her eyes full of relief and expectation. She patted Huo Yan's shoulder gently and said earnestly, "Huo Yan, you must take good care of Qinqin. She is pregnant now."

Mother Qiao's voice was gentle yet firm, full of love for her daughter and instructions to her son-in-law.

Huo Yan nodded seriously, his eyes revealing a firm determination, he straightened up, and said solemnly: "Mom, don't worry, I will take good care of Qinqin."

At this time, Huo Siqian also said excitedly: "Grandma, Dad is so good to Mom."

The little guy's face was filled with an innocent smile, his eyes were sparkling, and his words were full of childishness and joy, making the whole atmosphere even warmer.

Everyone laughed when they heard Huo Siqian's words.

Qiao Qin looked at Huo Yan and her son, her heart deeply moved. She was very lucky to have a husband who loved her so much and a lovely son.

Mother Qiao looked at this happy family with tears in her eyes. She was happy for her daughter and felt relieved for this warm family.

There was a warm atmosphere in the air, the lights cast a soft glow, and the dining table was filled with delicious food.

Huo Yan picked up food for Qiao Qin from time to time, his eyes full of tenderness and care. He gently picked up a piece of tender fish, carefully picked out the fish bones, and then put it into Qiao Qin's bowl.

"Qinqin, eat more fish. It's good for you and the baby." His voice was low and gentle, and his eyes were full of doting when he looked at Qiao Qin.

At the same time, Qiao's mother's face was filled with a kind smile and her eyes were full of concern.

"Siqian, how are you doing in school? Are you listening to your teachers?"

Huo Siqian sat on a small stool, his chin supported by his hands, his eyes sparkling.

"Grandma, our school is so much fun! Today the teacher told us a super interesting story. Also, I played games with my friends and I ran so fast!"

His little face was full of excitement, and he was gesticulating with his hands and feet. Mother Qiao was amused by Huo Siqian's cute appearance and laughed out loud. She gently touched Huo Siqian's head and said, "Siqian is so good. You should listen to your teacher at school."

Huo Siqian nodded vigorously and said, "I know, grandma."

In this warm atmosphere, time seems to stand still. The family sits together, sharing every bit of life and feeling each other's love and warmth.

After dinner, Qiao's mother accompanied Qiao Qin for a walk in the garden.

The air at night is exceptionally fresh, with a faint scent of flowers in the breeze.

Qiao Qin held her mother's arm and felt her warmth.

"Mom, it's great that you're here." Qiao Qin said with a happy smile on her face.

Mother Qiao stroked her hair and said with a smile, "Silly child, I am worried about you. You are pregnant now, so you must rest and don't get too tired."

Qiao Qin immediately agreed: "I know, Mom."

"Qinqin, seeing that you are so happy now, mom is happy." Mother Qiao looked at Qiao Qin steadily, her eyes full of relief.

Qiao Qin held her mother's hand and said, "Mom, this is all because of your and Dad's support. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be so happy."

Mother Qiao suddenly sighed: "Qinqin, I'm sorry for you before."

Qiao Qin looked at her mother in confusion and asked, "Mom, why do you say that? You haven't let me down."

Mother Qiao hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke out after wanting to say something.

"Qinqin, actually...actually you are not my biological child."

After hearing this, Qiao Qin was stunned. She couldn't believe her ears. She stared at her mother blankly and unconsciously increased the volume.

"Mom, what did you say? I'm not your biological child?"

Mother Qiao nodded and said, "It's true. Mom is infertile. You were born 25 years ago in the hospital to a pregnant woman who was bleeding heavily. The pregnant woman was injured when she gave birth and she didn't live long. It just so happened that her kidneys matched Mom's, and the pregnant woman's only condition was to help her take care of the child. From then on, Mom brought you home and raised you as her own child."

Qiao Qin's eyes were full of shock. She didn't expect that her life experience would be like this.

Her mind was in a mess and she didn't know what to say. She stood there blankly, her eyes full of confusion and bewilderment.

"Qinqin, I know this matter comes as a surprise to you, but I have always treated you as my own daughter. I hope you don't blame me." Mother Qiao looked at Qiao Qin cautiously, her eyes full of worry.

Qiao Qin was silent for a moment, then hugged the person in front of her tightly, her tears burst out and dripped onto her mother's shoulder.

"Mom, how could I blame you? You raised me and gave me so much love. You are my biological mother."

When Qiao's mother heard this, tears welled up in her eyes. She gently patted Qiao Qin's back and said, "Qinqin, I'm relieved that you think this way."

Qiao Qin wiped her tears and took a deep breath to calm herself down. "Mom, don't tell anyone about this, okay? I don't want Huo Yan and Si Qian to worry."

Mother Qiao agreed without hesitation.

"Okay, Mom listens to you."

After a while, Qiao Qin's emotions gradually calmed down. She looked at her mother, her heart full of gratitude. The person in front of her had given a lot for her, and she would always remember this love in her heart.

"Mom, let's just stay the same as before, okay?" Qiao Qin said.

Mother Qiao nodded: "Okay, we are still a family."
