Chapter 1250: Chapter 1244: Awkward_1 Chapter 1250: Chapter 1244: Awkward_1 Early the next morning, Chu Molin got up to exercise, while Qin Xue was allowed to sleep until she naturally woke up.
Realizing that she would be receiving guests today, Qin Xue got up reluctantly. The last thing she wanted was for Miao Qingqing and the others to arrive while she was still sleeping â they would surely laugh at her. Thus, she was determined not to let such an embarrassing scenario happen.
âMaster, rise and shine. Eat this,â offered Xue Ling, extending a bottle to Qin Xue after she woke up.
âWhatâs this? Itâs a bit sweet,â Qin Xue queried Xue Ling, only after consuming the contents in the bottle.
âYou asked after consuming? Werenât you worried I might have given you poison?â Xue Ling asked, looking at her master with surprise, her heart must be very audacious.
âDidnât you say that my death would be your demise as well? I knew you wouldnât risk your own life,â Qin Xue confidently retorted. She knew that she could trust Xue Ling, she wouldnât just eat anything handed to her by just anyone.
âThat was for your own good. Havenât you noticed how awkwardly you are walking?â sighed Xue Ling. If it wasnât for her presence, what would her master do?
âUhâŠâ Qin Xueâs face flushed at Xue Lingâs remark, suddenly feeling somewhat guilty.
âAlright, sit and rest for half an hour. Youâll be back to normal by then,â Xue Ling said, unable to bear Qin Xueâs embarrassed look â her face was so red it could almost cook an egg!
âXue Ling, who else saw me just now?â Qin Xue asked as she sat down on a chair next to Xue Ling, watching her tinker with her accessories.
âOnly I witnessed it. They all went out; nobodyâs home,â Xue Ling reassured her, immediately bringing a wave relief to Qin Xueâs heart.
âThatâs good,â Qin Xue said, standing up and moving around after resting for half an hour. She felt much better now and was grateful to Xue Ling for having such remedies at disposal â no more worrying about not being able to rise from bed!
âWhat did they go out to do?â Qin Xue asked out of curiosity. If everyone was gone, there would be no one to eat the breakfast she was going to prepare â what a waste that would be!
âTo buy breakfast,â Xue Ling replied, recalling what Chu Xiaoqiao had mentioned.
âGood thing I asked, otherwise, I would have started cooking rice by now,â Qin Xue said, patting her chest in relief.
âGiven your sleeping habits, by the time you are done making breakfast, it will be ages!â Xue Lingâs sarcastic comment made Qin Xue want to bury herself in shame. Hadnât she ever heard of the saying âlet bygones be bygonesâ?
âStill, it doesnât hurt to eat, right?â Qin Xue countered before heading to freshen up. Since everyone was out, she decided to start preparing lunch instead.
âAuntie, time to eat!â Jingtao shouted enthusiastically from the door.
âYou guys are back,â Qin Xue noted upon hearing the shouts. She emerged to find everyone had finally come back.
âYeah, come join us for breakfast,â Chu Molin set down the breakfast on the table and called out to Qin Xue.
âComing.â Qin Xue guided the two kids to the table and started feeding them their gruel.
âYou eat first, Iâll feed them,â Chu Molin took over the bowl from Qin Xue so she could eat. He believed that his wifeâs delicate frame shouldnât have cold meals, which may not be good for her health.
Chu Molin felt that Qin Xue was delicate only at this moment, otherwise he didnât seem to be aware of it.
âAlright,â Qin Xue understood that her husband was indulging her, so she decided to abide.
Once everyone was done with breakfast, Chu Molin started reading his reports. Qin Xue and Chu Xiaoqiao were busy preparing the lunch while others watched the kids.
Everyone went about doing their own chores, co-existing in their own little worlds without disturbing one another.
