Just as Fu Mingxue was about to pick them up, the two little ones quickly said, "Mommy, Daddy’s back!"

Fu Mingxue: ...?

’Qin Wenhao was back? The one she had completely forgotten about?’

Come to think of it, she had been so busy lately that she hadn’t even remembered she had a husband.

She had almost forgotten she was a married woman.

She looked up and saw Qin Wenhao walking out of the room.

"Honey!" His deep voice seemed to be suppressing boundless excitement.

Fu Mingxue sized him up. ’Huh, this guy seems to have gotten even more handsome.’

Seeing that he was still in his green uniform, she asked, "You’re back. Did you just arrive?"

"About ten minutes ago." Qin Wenhao had gone to the courtyard house first.

He found the main gate locked.

When he opened the door and looked inside, it seemed like no one had been living there for a few days.

His heart sank. ’Don’t tell me my wife and mother-in-law took the two kids back to the family compound?’

’If that were the case, wouldn’t they have missed each other?’

Fortunately, he had the presence of mind to head back to the Qin Family Mansion to ask.

That was how he learned that his mother-in-law had returned to her hometown, and his wife had only come home yesterday afternoon after being taken by Qin Wenying to go work on airplanes.

He had originally planned to go to the school to find his wife, but he got held up by the two children.

So, he figured he would go look for her after dinner.

He never expected that she would come back first.

Looking at the woman he hadn’t seen in nearly a month, Qin Wenhao realized how much he had truly missed her.

He was dying to step forward and pull her into a hug.

However, he restrained himself. After all, so many eyes were watching.

"Are you going back to your unit, or are you staying for the New Year?"

Fu Mingxue remembered that the last time she left the family compound, this guy had said he didn’t have any leave.

’So how did he manage to come back this time?’

"I took leave from my unit to come back for the New Year."

Fu Mingxue: ...?

Just then, a displeased voice cut in.

"Mingxue, stop talking to him for a minute. Go wash your hands and come eat. You’ve been working hard all day, and this Qin Wenhao doesn’t even have the sense to worry about you first."

Mrs. Qin’s tone was filled with dissatisfaction toward her son.

She showed not a shred of preferential treatment for the son she hadn’t seen in so long.

Fu Mingxue shot a glance at Qin Wenhao, then replied, "Okay, Mom."

She went to wash her hands first.

Meanwhile, Qin Wenhao walked over, bent down, and picked up the twins who were about to follow Fu Mingxue.

The couple’s reunion made the Qin family very happy.

The family meal was especially cheerful and harmonious.

As soon as the meal was over, Fu Mingxue prepared to leave. She had already agreed on a time with Director Liu, and she couldn’t keep him waiting too long.

When Qin Wenhao heard she was going to the First Auto Factory, he quickly offered, "I’ll take you—"

There was no way Fu Mingxue was going to let him take her. She refused him outright. "No need, it’ll be faster if I ride my bike. It’ll be inconvenient if you come with me."

’Is he going to wait for me at the First Auto Factory the whole time?’

’I don’t even know what time I’ll be back.’

Qin Wenhao: ...?

’So, his wife had no intention of spending any extra time with him at all?’

Mrs. Qin spoke up just then. "Why are you wasting Mingxue’s time? Mingxue, you should get going. Don’t pay him any mind."

Qin Wenhao: ...?

"Mom, I’ll be heading out then." Fu Mingxue wheeled her bicycle out and left.

Her little electric bike was quite fast, and she disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.

Mrs. Qin eyed her youngest son and couldn’t help but tsk-tsk.

Qin Wenhao: ...?

’What was that for?’

’When did she pick up that habit?’

"I’m going to our place to clean up."

"Clean for what?" Mrs. Qin was completely baffled.
