Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 2447: Chapter 2441: Finally Made It

The four of them chatted and joked on their way to the station. They had to catch the train; otherwise, if they missed it, they’d have to wait until tomorrow. Anxious to get home, none of them wanted any more delays, so despite their joking around, they moved quickly.

"We finally made it, I was really worried we’d miss the train." Qin Xue felt the rush once she sat down; the schedule had been too tight.

"Hmm, it’s okay." Chu Molin understood how hard it had been for her; traveling with a big belly was uncomfortable. Although he had never experienced it, he imagined carrying a watermelon while walking would be uncomfortable.

One can only wonder what others would think of Chu Molin’s analogy, but that’s how he saw it. Meanwhile, Ye Xuan and Qing Zhu sat together; Qing Zhu wanted Ye Xuan to sit inside to avoid getting bumped by others, but Ye Xuan wanted Qing Zhu to sit inside, so she wouldn’t get bumped. In the end, under Qing Zhu’s insistence, Ye Xuan sat inside. Given their current relationship, Ye Xuan was a bit intimidated by Qing Zhu, afraid of making her mad. Besides, she had his best interests at heart, so listening to her avoided any arguments.

Qing Zhu wasn’t rejecting his protection but decided based on the situation. At present, he was injured, and if he messed around, it would only exacerbate his injuries, a result she didn’t want to see. Under such circumstances, Qing Zhu felt she had to be more assertive, otherwise, if he got hurt, she’d have to take care of him. Thinking about it exhausted her. For Ye Xuan, the injured party, Qing Zhu realized that only by caring deeply did she come to understand she didn’t want him hurt in any way. Before she cared for Ye Xuan, she never felt much, but once she wanted to start something with him, she couldn’t bear to see him get hurt at all.

Perhaps this is a deep-seated desire in everyone’s heart, not wanting any mishaps to befall the ones they care about.

Isn’t it said that’s how friends are, let alone lovers? When seeing a stranger’s issues, they seem like stories, but when it involves someone close, they become incidents. This change in human psychology is truly unimaginable.

"Do you guys want something to eat? We were in such a rush earlier, now we finally have time to eat." Qin Xue handed them a small bag containing food.

"Sure, I was starving." Qing Zhu, without any hesitation, took some food; she didn’t have time for pleasantries with Qin Xue. If she didn’t eat soon, she feared she’d pass out from hunger. She took some out before handing the bag to Ye Xuan.

"You eat first. If there’s anything left, I’ll eat." Ye Xuan noticed there wasn’t a lot of food in the bag. If he ate it all, there wouldn’t be enough for Qing Zhu, so he thought it better to let her eat her fill first.

"I told you to eat, so just eat. Why so much talk?" Qing Zhu was really fed up with his dithering. What’s the deal? Just take the food when offered. If there weren’t enough for her, she wouldn’t have offered it to him. Besides, when traveling together, if she had food, she had to share it with him, otherwise, what would it look like?

Moreover, Ye Xuan had only one hand to use due to his injury. If she didn’t give him, the injured one, food, wouldn’t that lack humanity? What would others think of her then? It really wore her down.

And this man prioritizes her in everything, so persuading him otherwise wasn’t an option. Therefore, she could only slowly adapt and work together.
