Chapter 256 Duo Duo Is So Obedient

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

“Mom.” Huo Yunxi handed the things in his hands to the servants at home and said to Liu Yan.

They heaved a sigh of relief when they saw how much the matriarch liked Duo Duo.

Xia Luobing looked at the two of them with a faint smile on her face. He stood beside Yunqi and did not speak.

At this moment, she did not know what to call the matriarch.

“Let’s sit down first. We’ll eat immediately.” An uncomfortable look flashed through Liu Yan’s eyes. Fortunately, Duo Duo was by her side. She reached out to hold the little girl in her arms and hung a jade pendant around her neck. She said affectionately, “This is a gift from Grandma to Duo Duo.”

Duo Duo Duo pulled the jade pendant with her chubby hands, blinked her butterfly-like eyes, and kissed Liu Yan on the face, “Thank you, Grandma.”

“Good, Duo Duo is really good.” Liu Yan smiled and narrowed her eyes in a straight line.

The atmosphere in the living room was harmonious and filled with joy that he had not seen for a long time.

After a while, Liu Yan looked at Xia Luobing and said stiffly, “Follow me.”

Huo Yunqi frowned. Just as he was about to speak, he felt Xia Luobing pinch his palm. When he hesitated, Xia Luobing had already stood up and went to Liu Yan’s room upstairs.

“Big brother, don’t worry. Mom is no match for sister-in-law,” Huo Yunxi teased. “There might be surprises.”

Ye Shaochen also smiled and said, “The matriarch likes Duoduo so much, she will also like Luo Bing.”

Obviously, after this incident, the matriarch’s attitude towards Xia Luobing had changed 180 times.

Xia Luobing sat on the sofa opposite her and said indifferently, “What do you want to say to me?”

Although Huo Yunxi repeatedly assured the matriarch that she really wanted to be open-minded, she still had to be cautious because the previous incident was deeply rooted.

Ever since she entered the gate, her heart had been tense.

Liu Yan glanced at Xia Luobing, got up and went to the bedside. She pulled open the bedside table and took out a box. After rubbing it with her fingers for a while, she turned around and placed it in front of Xia Luobing and said, “Open it.”

Xia Luobing had a puzzled expression, but she still opened the box according to Liu Yan’s instructions. On the black velvet lay a lanolin jade bracelet. The bracelet emitted a warm light under the gentle light, causing people to be unable to help but like it when they saw it.

“This was given to me by Granny Yunqi.” Liu Yan sat down and said slowly, “Here you go.”

Xia Luobing was stunned and looked up at Liu Yan, “You …”

Does this mean that he accepts her?

Although she had always comforted herself that as long as Huo Yunqi had her place in her heart, nothing else was important, but hearing Liu Yan’s words, her heart still stirred up.

“I’m not used to apologizing.” Liu Yan’s voice was a little stiff. She paused for a moment before continuing, “Everyone, move back in.”

Yun Xi was right, living alone in such a big villa, it was really empty.

Xia Luobing closed the jewelry box and her eyes were wet. He reached out to stop Liu Yan’s arm and whispered, “Are we reconciled?”

Liu Yan’s eyes turned red as she glared at Xia Luobing and said unhappily, “I’ve already given you the family heirloom. Why don’t you call me Mom?”

“Mom.” Xia Luobing whispered and took the initiative to hug Liu Yan. Her voice trembled, “It’s been a long time since I called out this word.”

Liu Yan patted Xia Luobing’s back and said, “Move back in the future.”

Xia Luobing said “yes” and finally calmed her emotions. She said awkwardly, “Ever since I had this child in my stomach, my emotions have been a little repetitive. Don’t mind.”

Liu Yan smiled and looked at Xia Luobing again.

“How many months has the child been? Do you have any regular maternity examinations?” Liu Yan looked at Xia Luobing’s lower abdomen with a loving expression. “You must pay attention to your diet.”

Charlotte smiled when she mentioned the child. “It’s been three months. The doctor says the child is fine.”

There seemed to have never been any estrangement or quarrel between the two of them. As they chatted about the pregnant woman, time slipped through their fingers.

“Mom, sister-in-law, I’m starving to death.” Huo Yunxi pushed open the door and saw that the two of them were chatting happily. He smiled and said, “Are you guys not going to eat?”

Liu Yan looked at Huo Yunxi reproachfully and pulled Xia Luobing’s hand. “How’s the soup in the kitchen? Let’s get it ready for your sister-in-law first.”

Sister-in-law?

Huo Yunxi’s eyes curved. Just now, she was worried that the two of them would struggle upstairs. Now, it seemed that she was thinking too much.

“Alright, sister-in-law.” Huo Yunxi rolled his eyes at Xia Luobing and went downstairs to report the situation to the two people below.

“All right!” Huo Yunxi gestured to the two men and happily entered the kitchen. “Sister-in-law Zhang, my sister-in-law soup.”

When Liu Yan and Xia Luobing went downstairs, the dining table was already filled with food. The whole family sat together with an indescribable liveliness.

“I want to sit next to Grandma.” Duo Duo turned around and walked towards Liu Yan. She raised her face and said, “Grandma.”

Liu Yan’s heart immediately went limp. She bent down and picked up the little person and placed her on a chair beside her. “Alright, Duo Duo is sitting next to Grandma.”

Xia Luobing looked at her daughter with a smile on her face, her heart filled with joy and confidence.

Needless to say, a meal was filled with joy.

After dinner, Duo Duo took the initiative to stay and sleep with Liu Yan, while Huo Yunqi and Xia Luobing had to go back to pack their things first and move in together in the next few days.

After dinner, Huo Yunqi drove Xia Luobing back, and the atmosphere in the carriage was peaceful and peaceful.

“Bing Bing, it’s been hard on you.” Huo Yunqi held Xia Luobing’s hand and smiled.

It was not easy for the two of them to reach this point step by step.

Xia Luobing shook her head and smiled, “It’s all over. No matter how hard it is, it’s all over.”

As long as the result is good, then it doesn’t matter if the process is a bit harder, right?

Thinking of this, the smile at the corner of Charlotte’s mouth became even brighter. She could not remember how long it had been since she had relaxed like this.

It was as if someone who had stared at the dark clouds for a long time had suddenly seen the brilliant sunlight and felt relieved.

Because Xia Luobing was pregnant, she took a long leave from the public security bureau and waited for the baby to be born before going to work, so she had plenty of time to stay at home every day.

Previously, Liu Yan went shopping and had her beauty salon done every day, but now she stared at Xia Luobing without leaving.

“Ice, eat fruit.” Liu Yan placed a plate of cut fruit on the table and said with a smile, “Eating more fruit is good for the child’s skin.”

The corner of Charlotte’s eyes twitched, “Mom, I’ve eaten a lot of fruit today.”

She was really worried that the child’s skin would be so good that it would be transparent.

“Drink milk if you don’t want fruit.” Liu Yan stood up to warm up the milk.

Right now, all she wanted to do was to take care of Xia Luobing and the baby in her stomach. Her spirits were getting better and better.

However, this was a bitter experience for Xia Luobing.

“Mom, don’t be too busy. Sit down and rest for a while.” Xia Luobing hurriedly grabbed Liu Yan’s arm and laughed dryly, “The doctor said that eating too much food is not good for the fetus to absorb, and it’s not good for the body.”

Previously, Liu Yan did not like her, so she was unhappy.

Now that she was too enthusiastic, she was even more frightened. If she continued at this speed, wouldn’t she turn into a little fat pig?

Thinking of her round and round self, she couldn’t help but feel a wave of fear.

“Alright.” Liu Yan thought about it and sat down next to Charlotte. She smiled and said, “Actually, it doesn’t matter if you eat more.”

Seeing Xia Luobing’s stomach grow bigger and bigger, Liu Yan smiled more and more.

“Mom, the weather is fine today. I’ll accompany you to have a physical examination.” Xia Luobing said, “Didn’t you say a few days ago that the quality of sleep is not good? I’m going to the hospital for a physical examination.”

Liu Yan waved her hand, “No need, I can’t sleep well because I have something on my mind.”

She had been thinking about the name of the child after it was born. The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. It would be strange if she could sleep well.

Knowing the reason for Liu Yan’s insomnia, the corner of Xia Luobing’s mouth twitched and her face turned black. However, in order to match the matriarch’s interest, she still asked, “Did you think of those names?”

“A lot, both boys and girls.” Seeing that Xia Luobing was a little nervous, Liu Yan patted her hand and smiled, “I like both boys and girls.”

Ever since Yunqi and Xia Luobing moved back home, the house had been very lively. Her mood was getting better and better every day, and many things that she couldn’t understand now had been seen through.

As for whether Charlotte’s baby was a boy or a girl, she didn’t think it was that important.

Xia Luobing was stunned when she heard this, and then she laughed. Compared to before, the matriarch’s mentality had changed a hundred and eighty times. Sometimes, she was unaccustomed to it and wasn’t sure if she was dreaming.

“It’s fine today. Shall we go out for a walk?” Xia Luobing laughed, her voice carrying a hint of coquettish intent.

Before, she had never thought that one day, she would talk so intimately with Liu Yan.

“Summer will be over soon. I’ll go pick up Duoduo and buy some autumn clothes.” Liu Yan’s eyes lit up. “Today is Friday. She doesn’t have class in the afternoon.”

The two of them hit it off immediately. After lunch, they went to pick up the little girl.

“Mom, you don’t have to pick her up every day.” Xia Luobing looked at the bustling crowd outside the interest class and smiled. “Just let the driver come.”

Liu Yan untied her safety bag and pushed the car door. Hearing Xia Luobing’s words, she smiled and said, “You don’t understand.”

Xia Luobing was stunned when she saw the matriarch go to the kindergarten entrance in high spirits. She smiled helplessly, but her heart was filled with joy.

“Mrs. Huo, come pick up your granddaughter again.” Someone they knew greeted Liu Yan, “Your flowers are really cute.”

Liu Yan’s eyes turned straight and she smiled, “Duo Duo is very obedient, she is also very sensible at home …”

Xia Luobing rolled down the window and listened to the conversation between Liu Yan and those people clearly. Looking at Liu Yan’s complacent smile, she immediately understood the reason why the matriarch insisted on picking up the child every day.

So she likes to be held.

“Mommy!” Duo Duo climbed into the car and smiled. “Grandma said she wanted to take Duo Duo to buy beautiful clothes.”

Seeing that both of them were fastened with their seat belts, Xia Luobing started the car and smiled, “Then did you thank Grandma?”

“Thank you, Grandma.” Duo Duo raised her little face and smiled like a flower. “She even kissed Grandma.”

Seeing the matriarch’s satisfied expression, Xia Luobing smiled. Obviously, the number of seals that the little fellow had won over the hearts of the people was much higher than hers.

Because of Friday, there were many people in the mall. Liu Yan held her hands tightly, afraid that she would accidentally lose her precious granddaughter.

“Mom, can you take a look at this dress?” Xia Luobing picked up a Chinese-style coat and compared it to Liu Yan. “I think it would look good on you.”

Liu Yan looked at Xia Luobing reproachfully, “How old am I? Wearing such bright clothes will make me laugh.”

Without waiting for Xia Luobing to speak, Duo Duo pulled Liu Yan’s clothes and said, “Grandma will definitely look beautiful in it.”

The baby granddaughter spoke. Liu Yan didn’t have any objections. She took the clothes and went to the fitting room. Xia Luobing held her daughter’s hand and looked at the clothes. Her gaze fell in the mirror. Her eyes tightened and she suddenly turned around, “Zhuang Xinran?”

Compared to a few years ago, Zhuang Xinran did not change much, but his gaze became more and more profound, causing others to be unable to understand.

The only thing that remained unchanged was that her hostility towards Xia Luobing was even greater than before.

“Long time no see.” Zhuang Xinran looked at Charlotte and shifted his gaze from her stomach to Duo Duo’s face. He reached out to touch Duo Duo’s face and said, “Your child is so old?”

Duo Duo instinctively flashed behind Xia Luobing. Zhuang Xinran’s extended hand missed. However, there was no sign of anger on her face. Instead, she smiled and said, “Very much like you.”

She hated it when she saw it.
