But she didn't know that just one look from her almost captured Mu Qiancheng's soul.
It's important to know that all along, Jiang Xue had never shown him a kind face. How could she have jokingly teased and glared at him like this?
This version of Jiang Xue made him inexplicably happy. He thought, if only Jiang Xue could remain like this. That way, he wouldn't have to worry about their relationship deteriorating further.
"What are you staring at? Weren't you just coming back to see your son? Now, your son is right in front of you, and you haven't even looked at him. Is this how you should be as a father?"
Seeing Mu Qiancheng still in a daze and stupidly staring at her, Jiang Xue couldn't help but reprimand him again.
If at first, she didn't know how to talk to Mu Qiancheng, now she spoke more fluently, whether it was her tone or her words. It was as if they were a real couple.
"To see you too!" Mu Qiancheng replied without thinking, with these three words.
This left Jiang Xue stunned. What did he mean by that? To see you too? Could it be that Mu Qiancheng meant he came back to see her too?
Could it be true? Jiang Xue was doubtful about Mu Qiancheng's words. She had never been good to him before, constantly finding fault with him. Would Mu Qiancheng really want to see her?
Forget it, forget it. It's not good for her to overthink it. As long as she knows Mu Qiancheng loves her, that's enough. In their past life, he lost his life for her.
Fortunately, after Mu Qiancheng finished speaking, he no longer looked at Jiang Xue. He felt a bit embarrassed himself. So, he redirected his gaze to the sleeping Little Reunion on the bed, feeling a warm wave of happiness in his heart.
He had a son now, how wonderful!
Looking at the chubby, white little boy on the bed and thinking about Jiang Xue's hardships over these days, Mu Qiancheng couldn't help but feel heartache again. He looked up at her and held her hand, saying, "Xue'er, you've suffered! Thank you, thank you for giving birth to our child."
Feeling her hand tighten, Jiang Xue's gaze fell on their hands.
Noticing Jiang Xue's gaze, Mu Qiancheng realized he had just grabbed her hand out of excitement, and his heart tightened as he anxiously looked at Jiang Xue's face.
At that moment, because of Mu Qiancheng's sudden action and his strong grip, Jiang Xue was frowning.
But her tightly furrowed brows conveyed displeasure to Mu Qiancheng. When he thought of how Jiang Xue was displeased with his touch, or him holding her hand, Mu Qiancheng's once joyful heart was instantly doused with a cold bucket of water, slowly cooling down.
He quickly drew back his hand and apologized, "Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean to."
Jiang Xue wasn't angry at first, but after hearing Mu Qiancheng's words, she got upset, gave a cold snort, and said, "Didn't mean to?"
"Yes, yes!" Mu Qiancheng saw that Jiang Xue was angry and quickly nodded.
Hearing this, Jiang Xue became even angrier, glared at Mu Qiancheng with a huff, and said, "Alright, you've seen your son now, get out."
Mu Qiancheng gazed at Jiang Xue intently, seeing her finally return to her original self, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.
As expected, he was overthinking. Jiang Xue was still Jiang Xue and hadn't changed. She still didn't like him; everything just now felt like an illusion.
