Chapter 562: Miss

"Mommy missed you guys, too."

Fu Mingxue picked up the two children, one in each arm.

Then she planted a big kiss on each of their little cheeks.

And in return, she received a slobbery kiss from each of the little ones.

When Mrs. Qin saw her daughter-in-law holding a child in each arm, she grew anxious. "Oh dear, you two get down from there! Don’t tire out your mother."

’Those two are not light at all.’

’Holding one is one thing, but two at once... would her arms even survive?’

’She certainly couldn’t do it.’

Fu Mingxue said with a smile, "It’s okay, Mom. I can hold them."

She gave the two little ones a little bounce.

’They seem to have gotten a little heavier in the past few days.’

’Looks like they’re quite comfortable here.’

’And her in-laws have been taking great care of them.’

"Even so, put them down. Go wash your hands. Let’s eat first."

At Mrs. Qin’s words, the two little ones obediently asked to be put down.

"Mommy, my sister and I are getting down to eat," Qin Hao said.

Hearing this, Fu Mingxue set the two children down.

"I’ll go wash my hands, then." She had originally wanted to take a shower first.

But with the whole family waiting for her to eat, she didn’t want to hold them up for too long.

"Okay," Mrs. Qin said, leading the two children to the table.

Fu Mingxue quickly washed her hands and went to the dining table.

A bowl of rice was already waiting for her.

"Mingxue, come and eat. I had a feeling you might be back today, so I asked Aunt Li to cook some extra rice. I can’t believe you actually made it back, and just in time for dinner." Mrs. Qin placed a piece of meat in her bowl.

"Thanks, Mom. I can get it myself." Fu Mingxue started eating.

’Sure enough, a home-cooked meal always tastes best.’

She had a healthy appetite and never held back at the Qin’s, so she polished off three whole bowls of rice.

After dinner, she wasn’t in a rush to shower, since she needed to let her food settle first.

So she sat and chatted with the Qin family for a while.

"By the way, Mom, did my mother call?"

Mrs. Qin shook her head. "No, but I’m guessing she’ll probably be back soon."

Fu Mingxue mentally calculated the time; her mother was indeed due to arrive soon.

’Probably in the next day or two.’

The Qin family was still very curious about the fact that Fu Mingxue could repair airplanes.

So, Fu Mingxue chatted with them a bit longer about it.

Of course, she couldn’t mention anything that was confidential.

After about half an hour, Fu Mingxue got up. "Mom, I’m going to head upstairs and take a shower now."

Mrs. Qin nodded. "Alright, you go on ahead!"

Fu Mingxue went upstairs, washed her hair, and showered.

’She wasn’t in a hurry to read tonight.’

’The children had been so clingy just now; they must have really missed her over the last few days.’

’So, she decided to put everything else aside for the evening and spend some extra time with her two little ones.’

As soon as she stepped out of her room, she saw them. Sure enough, the two children were standing right at her door, their eyes wide with anticipation.

The sight made Fu Mingxue’s heart melt.

She bent down and scooped them up into her arms again.

"Come on, let’s go talk in my room."

She turned and carried them back into the room.

The two little ones looked around the room with curiosity.

Just then, Qin Keke asked in a small voice, "Mommy, can we sleep with you tonight?"

Her brother, Qin Hao, didn’t say a word, but his eyes sparkled as he gazed at his mother.

It was clear he wanted to as well.

It was impossible not to feel your heart soften with these two, especially when their two pairs of innocent, longing eyes were fixed on her.

Of course, Fu Mingxue couldn’t bring herself to say no.

She kissed both of them. "Of course you can. You’ll sleep with Mommy tonight, and I’ll even tell you a story!"
