Bringing the Nation's Husband Home - Chapter 964: The Two Three Blissful Things（6）

Eight years ago, when Qiao Anxia had protected Qiao Anhao from a stab, she lost her chance at being a mother.

Almost... That one word from the doctor shone a glimpse of light into her despair, even if the possibility was slight, she never once gave up.

Initially, Cheng Yang would still accompany her to the doctor, but when he saw her taking endless amounts of herbal medicines for three whole years, he suggested giving up.

At that time, Cheng Yang who had always been patient and understanding towards her flew into a rage because she insisted on taking the medication. Ever since then, she started to take the medication secretly, but after so many years, she still wasn't able to conceive a child.

Qiao Anxia's mood fell instantly.

Cheng Yang had to discuss a contract the next day. When he came back, he brought a bunch of things.

Qiao Anxia went forward to take a look, realizing that they were all toys.

Cheng Yang sensed her confusion so he explained that it was for a friend that just gave birth to twins.

Among the bags of toys were two pretty bags, one for a boy and one for a girl. Needless to say, it was definitely for Little Rice Cake and Little Red Bean.

If Qiao Anxia were to recall, in the past eight years, he had often bought stuff for the both of them. Several times when she accompanied him, he would have on a serious expression and, every once in a while, he would suggest heading to Mian Xiu Garden. Even though he didn't specify the reason, she knew it was to visit the kids.

Deep in his heart, he must really want a child, right?

"What are you thinking about?" Cheng Yang asked when he saw her staring intently at the two bags. Reaching out, he caressed her hair lightly.

Qiao Anxia snapped back to her senses. She shook her head and diverted the conversation. "What are we having tonight?"

"What do you want to eat?"

"Spicy food?"

"Sure," Cheng Yang agreed without hesitation. "Let me change before bringing you out."

Qiao Anxia nodded obediently.

He planted a kiss on her forehead before entering the bedroom.

After the meal, Cheng Yang and Qiao Anxia went to catch a newly released movie with Lu Jinnian as the main lead. It was high in box office and the ratings were good. A after they watched the movie, they agreed that it was indeed as the comments had mentioned. When they returned home, it was already 11 pm at night.

Cheng Yang started the water for the bath after his shower. He even placed Qiao Anxia’s pajamas on the chair beside the bathtub.

When she was done with her bath, he was no longer in the bedroom. Curious, she walked out in search of him. The study room was lit up and there was a soft mumbling from the room.

"Mom, I already told you, I'm the one that doesn't want kids, not Xia Xia."

"Xia Xia has always wanted kids, but I find them troublesome so I didn't let her conceive."

"I'm not lying to you, you're my mother, why would I lie to you? I'm not trying to protect Xia Xia by saying that."

"Please don't call Xia Xia, I’m the one they doesn’t want kids. If you call her, it'll seem like I'm blaming her for not having kids."

"I already said I'm the one that doesn't want kids!"

Cheng Yang spoke in a visibly irritated tone.

Qiao Anxia lowered her eyes. Her expression darkening, she headed back to the bedroom on light feet.
