Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 152 - If you don’t take good care of it, it might grow crooked.

Chapter 152: Chapter 152 If you don’t take good care of it, it might grow crooked.

Otherwise, as a normal man, he would indeed have to force her to fulfill her duties as a wife, and she definitely would not be able to beat him.

And that outcome was not something Gu Qiaoqiao wanted.

Gu Qiaoqiao cleverly shifted the topic, sliding down the slope and changing the subject, “Let’s make dumplings tonight, using duckbill vegetables as the filling, it’s really delicious…”

The cheerful little bee, Gu Qiaoqiao, was back.

Qin Yize’s thin lips curled into a handsome arc as he stared at Gu Qiaoqiao’s black hair and her long, curled eyelashes drooping down.

A moment later, he said softly, “Okay.”

Then he packed away all his emotions and walked out of Gu Qiaoqiao’s bedroom unhurriedly.

It was only after Qin Yize had left that Gu Qiaoqiao’s tense shoulders finally relaxed.

She let out a long sigh of relief.

Then she had no heart to go check those pieces of jade.

After all, the tools hadn’t been mailed over yet.

Gu Qiaoqiao temporarily had nothing to do but also didn’t want to stay in the room, so she pushed open the door and looked in the direction of Qin Yize’s bedroom, listening for any movement.

She knew that Qin Yize had probably been tirelessly chasing after Zhao Ying these past few days.

By now, he should have gone to rest.

After all, he was also a mortal, not a god!

Gu Qiaoqiao patted her chest and tiptoed out the door.

She knew there was a grassy area just outside the main door which was now covered with freshly sprouted duckbill vegetables.

This wild vegetable was very tender when it first came out.

Blanching it and chopping it fine, then mixing it with some meat to make a filling for dumplings, was extremely fragrant.

Picking duckbill vegetables didn’t require any tools; one could just pinch the tips of the leaves with fingers.

Gu Qiaoqiao took a basin and went out through the main door.

It was already late May.

In another month, summer would arrive in the North, and actually, this was a good place, at least in summer it really wasn’t hot, very cool indeed.

Gu Qiaoqiao, standing at the doorway, looked out to see the vast distant mountains lush and green, with the nearby area equally verdant.

She thought that right now, on the hillside, those wild lilies and rhododendrons were blooming their most intense and beautiful.

In a while, the wild fruits in the mountains would also be ripe; actually, if transportation were convenient and winter not cold, this place would become a paradise on earth.

Gu Qiaoqiao laughed at herself, turned her head to glance at her own main door, and suddenly, reflecting on Qin Yize’s words just now, her face flushed red again.

He really dared to say it.

Talking about having children as if it were light and breezy, so natural.

Gu Qiaoqiao patted her face and then shook her head, looking around.

The family quarters and the research base were built together.

However, there was a primeval forest separating them.

It was said that to protect these centuries-old trees, the base was divided, but to Gu Qiaoqiao, this made it feel even more mysterious.

On the other side of the county town was the local military station.

It was about twenty Li from here.

Although it was early spring, the sunlight of May was the warmest and brightest.

Gu Qiaoqiao turned around once and then refocused her gaze.

She then began to squat down and one by one, started picking the duckbill vegetables.

Qin Yize lay down and only then felt indeed a bit tired.

Although physically exhausted, he felt utterly sleepless.

He heard the sound of Gu Qiaoqiao leaving the house.

He rubbed his forehead with some headache, suddenly wondering what the outcome would be if he told her he loved her.

What would Gu Qiaoqiao’s reaction be?

Imagining for a moment, he shook his head slightly, unable to guess at all.

For the first time in his life, Qin Yize felt a sense of powerlessness over something uncontrollable.

Yet, this feeling of powerlessness was quite fresh.

It made him feel that the future, filled with unknowns, might be even more exciting.

He rolled over and sat up.

Looking at the lifelike eagle carved on the Wolf’s Fang on his chest, when he saw the red eagle’s eyes, a subtle soft light flashed through his eyes.

Actually, truly, from the very beginning, he had never disliked her!

Moreover, during today’s conversation, Qin Yize once again confirmed his own opinions.

Gu Qiaoqiao’s mindset had major issues.

Not to mention the drastic change in her personality in just a few days around the Spring Festival, but also her inexplicable harshness towards human traffickers.

If he hadn’t stopped her, he thought, perhaps the human trafficker would have been killed by Gu Qiaoqiao.

Such behavior, from Qin Yize’s perspective, was actually admirable.

Mercy to an enemy is cruelty to oneself.

The story of the farmer and the snake can happen at any time.

But, she was a girl, just a nineteen-year-old young girl.

Not even an adult yet.

She shouldn’t have such a mindset.

Moreover, in certain situations, Gu Qiaoqiao’s self-protection was too strong; once it involved matters concerning her own interests, like today’s conversation, she thought of herself first.

Then, she suddenly became a different person, filled with a coldness and desolation that even she herself did not realize.

Qin Yize could not guess what she had experienced.

The neglect by her parents and sister might be related, but, surely, that wasn’t the main reason.

Because, besides neglect, there was no deep-seated vengeance.

And most importantly, she was only nineteen years old this year.

It was the time to enjoy making friends.

But, she didn’t have a single friend.

She didn’t like making friends either.

Aside from herself and her family, there was no one else in her eyes.

Although her relation with Luo Fan was not bad, that was also because Luo Fan took the initiative.

Of course, there was also Chang Qing.

Her attitude towards him was quite strange as well.

It seemed, she had known about his future long ago.

This was not normal.

Life is not like cutting a cake.

Dividing each piece perfectly, only taking the part that belongs to oneself, indifferent to all else.

Humans are social creatures; they cannot live alone, above societal norms.

Even him, with his aloof demeanor, had many good brothers with whom he could entrust his life.

As for her secrets, they were even more numerous.

So much so that Qin Yize had no interest in knowing any more at this time.

His expression was solemn, his demeanor more serious than ever before.

Gu Qiaoqiao, at this moment before him, seemed just like a small sapling.

If not properly cared for, it might end up growing crooked.

So, rather than Gu Qiaoqiao’s secrets and their future together, it seemed this was more important.

Qin Yize hoped that Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart, like her smile, was filled with brilliant sunshine.

Just like the first time he met her!

A firm and fervent light passed through his eyes.

Then, he leisurely put on his sweater, opened the door, and walked outside.

Immediately, he saw Gu Qiaoqiao, dressed in a light green sweater, squatting outside on the grass, picking what she referred to as duckbill vegetables that could be used for stuffing dumplings.

The color of the sweater looked very nice, he had noticed it just now, fresh like her age, but when squatting on the lush green grass, she somewhat resembled the small sapling he had just envisioned.

He concealed the smile in his eyes, raised his eyebrow slightly without a sound, and walked unhurriedly towards Gu Qiaoqiao.
