Cheng Su returned home from school, and Mother Cheng was pacing back and forth in the living room trying to put Xiao Qi to sleep. Seeing her return, she immediately pulled her aside to talk.
Cheng Su first kissed the top of her son’s head and couldn’t help but ask, "What’s going on?"
"Your husband is back."
"Really?" Cheng Su was delighted. "Where is he?"
This time the mission was completed relatively quickly; usually, it takes a while when he goes out.
"He’s lying in the room. It seems his leg is injured. I saw him limping." Mother Cheng looked worried.
A worry gripped Cheng Su’s heart, and she was about to head to the room when Mother Cheng immediately grabbed her and said, "Be careful what you say. He looks really unwell, didn’t even play with Xiao Qi. Who knows what happened?"
Hearing this, Cheng Su felt even more unsettled. She let Mother Cheng take the child to sleep while she went into the room herself.
As soon as she opened the door, she was choked by the thick smell of smoke, causing her to cough violently.
This guy must have smoked a lot; the whole room felt like it was on fire.
Cheng Su first went to open the window. The cold autumn and winter breeze swept in, quickly carrying out much of the smoke.
Turning around, she saw Qi Taiguo sitting on the edge of the bed smoking, "When did you come back?"
As soon as she sat down, Qi Taiguo hugged her, resting his head on her shoulder.
Cheng Su was startled.
Qi Taiguo, being someone extremely proud, might talk about pain or difficulties, but he’d never seek comfort so silently by holding her like this.
What’s wrong? Did something happen on the mission?
After a while, she felt a dampness on her neck, and her heart ached intensely, "What’s wrong? Don’t worry, I’m here!"
