The Surrogate Bride of the Colonel He

656. The Reunion

Translator: Sagocream

Xu Yangyi had originally been accompanying He Jingyan to “nap” for a while, but this “nap” took him more than two hours. It was only when Zuo Bo and Long Chen came over that they both got up from bed in a daze.

“It’s already ten o’clock! You two can really sleep!” Zuo Bo sat down without invitation and so did Long Chen.

He Jingyan sat up, sighing and frowning, “I say, don’t you two have anywhere else to go? Why do you come over here to disturb our sleep?”

He thought, ‘I was thinking of hugging my wife and sleeping a little longer! Why do you two come over early in the morning to disturb my good dreams?!’

Xu Yangyi was in bed, rubbing his eyes as if he hadn’t woken up completely.

He looked blankly at Zuo Bo and Long Chen who were sitting on the sofa, and blinked his hazel eyes, watching He Jingyan, asking with a sleepy accent, “What… time… is it?”

“A little after ten.” He Jingyan smiled and picked him up, giving him a doting kiss.

Because Xu Yangyi was still sleepy at this time, he did not hit He Jingyan.

Xu Yangyi continued rubbing his eyes and said, “I’m still sleepy. Do you guys want to talk about anything important?” After that, he curled his body into He Jingyan’s arms just like a cub.

Xu Yangyi was oversleeping, so he felt dizzy. The more he slept, the more he wanted to sleep.

“We didn’t talk about anything important, wifey. If you’re sleepy, you can go back to sleep.” He Jingyan coaxed him in a good mood. It was also true that it was not often that Xu Yangyi would take the initiative to burrow into his arms.

“Who says we have nothing important to report? Your wife’s sister has come over! Along with Gong Cheng and your father-in-law! It seems they come over here together and they’ve negotiated with Ke Moer about the cooperation.”

“They come over so early?” He Jingyan was a little surprised.

Xu Yangyi, on the other hand, was instantly awake, “Does my dad come over?” Very excited, he felt his sleepiness was gone.

“They should be coming over to you two in a moment.”

Then, as soon as Zuo Bo finished his words, the door had been opened and in came Gong Cheng first, followed by Xu Jing and Xu Nuannuan.

“Dad!”

Xu Yangyi didn’t even think about it. He jumped off the bed and ran to Xu Jing, hugging him as soon as he could, his eyes also warming up.

Xu Jing smiled, “What’s wrong? Do you miss your dad?”

Although he was smiling, Xu Jing’s expression looked a bit downcast, probably because he suddenly knew his identity and that Gong Cheng was going to help him take back Country T, so he felt a burden on his shoulders all of a sudden and didn’t recover from it for a while.

Coupled with the fact that the current Xu Jing no longer had that memory because of the drugs, he hadn’t even thought that he would have such a shocking identity.

“Dad, I’m sorry! It’s my uselessness that made mum die a tragic death.” Tears rustled down Xu Yangyi’s eyes. When he was in front of He Jingyan, he didn’t dare to cry like this. But when he saw his dad now, he released his burden all of a sudden.

“It’s not your fault. Don’t blame yourself.” Xu Jing was gently patting on Xu Yangyi’s back to comfort him, but his own eyes were tinged with mist. For it was only now that Xu Jing knew that his wife had been assassinated but she was not killed by accident. He and Xu Yangyi had been protected by Gong Cheng and Xu Nuanuan and knew nothing about it before.

“How can I not blame myself? If I had been older back then, Mom wouldn’t have died! It was my uselessness that caused her death.” Whimpering and crying, there was no hiding as Xu Yangyi met the family he knew best.

“Silly boy, you could not do anything then. You were too small.” Xu Jing combed through Xu Yangyi’s hair and held his tears back with a trembling voice.

He blamed no one but himself for not being able to protect his wife then; and even now, he was still being protected by Gong Cheng.
