Chapter 1328: Some People Are Destined to Miss Each Other
Liu Xin'ai waved her hand and said, "Just clip it onto my hair."
Qin Yiyan nodded.
Then he undid the hair clip and gently clipped it onto Liu Xin'ai's hair.
However, this action caused Liu Xin'ai's body to stiffen, and her pupils even constricted.
Seeing this, Qin Yiyan hurriedly asked, "What is it, did I hurt you?"
"It doesn't hurt... but have you ever seen anyone put a hair clip right in the middle of their head?"
"... Isn't that just how you wear it?"
"It should serve as a decoration, not look like a rooster's comb!"
There was helplessness in Liu Xin'ai's tone.
She raised her hand and took the hair clip off.
But she accidentally messed up her hair.
Qin Yiyan knew that everything had to start from the beginning!
He sighed softly, then grabbed his phone and asked, "How about... we find another video and learn how to wear it so it looks better?"
"That works too."
The two of them continued to huddle together to watch the video.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Chi Rong had just gone upstairs when she discovered Xiao'an lying at the doorway, peeking inside.
"You..."
Hearing the movement, Xiao'an turned around in a hurry and held up a finger.
Afterwards, she beckoned to Chi Rong, signaling for her to come and take a look too.
Chi Rong was an elder and felt that she shouldn't be peeking.
But...
Xiao'an's excited gaze made it impossible for Chi Rong to resist, and in the end, she still tiptoed to the room's doorway.
And upon looking...
She discovered that her son, who had once been so arrogant, was actually clumsily combing his wife's hair!
This scene...
Was a bit awkward, but also very... funny.
But isn't that how a normal married couple should be?
Chi Rong felt a sense of relief.
It was just that when she thought of Liu Xin'ai's current state...
The smile on Chi Rong's face gradually faded, and she silently stepped back and left.
She went to the garden alone and stood there for a long time, until...
Qin Yiyan walked over.
He looked at his mother's back and called out softly, "It's windy, you should go back and rest."
Chi Rong had no intention of going back; she turned around, stared intently at Qin Yiyan, and asked a question: "Have you considered the future for you and Xin'ai?"
Ever since Liu Xin'ai returned to the Qin Family, the couple had been getting along well, and the atmosphere in the house was also harmonious.
But both Chi Rong and Qin Yiyan knew that all this beauty... was just an illusion.
Qin Yiyan lowered his eyes and said, "I don't dare to hope for the future; right now, I am just atoning for my sins."
Chi Rong could understand Qin Yiyan's feelings and also understood his choice.
But she couldn't help but remind him, "Actually, now is also an opportunity."
"But Xin'ai will recover her memory sooner or later, and when that time comes, she will still choose to leave."
"Won't you try to fight for it?"
"I only want Xin'ai to be happy; as for whether she stays or leaves, I will let her decide for herself."
Let Xin'ai decide for herself...
Chi Rong sighed deeply and muttered, "If only you could have treated Xin'ai with this attitude earlier... that would have been good."
If things were truly as Chi Rong said, Qin Yiyan and Liu Xin'ai would certainly not have become a resentful couple.
But Qin Yiyan knew himself that there was simply no such possibility.
Because without experiencing pain, he would never have known he was wrong to such an outrageous degree.
Nor would he have known...
That he had long since fallen deeply in love with Liu Xin'ai!
Qin Yiyan thought of something and suddenly smiled bleakly.
Then he looked at Chi Rong and asked, "Mom, are some people... just destined to miss each other?"
The intense sense of fate left even Chi Rong unable to answer.
After a moment of silence, she just sighed, "Don't be too pessimistic; feelings need to be cultivated. Aren't you and Xin'ai currently re-cultivating your feelings? Even if one day Xin'ai recovers her memory, the time you spent together during this period will not just vanish into thin air."
Her mother's words made Qin Yiyan's suppressed mood loosen slightly.
It also allowed him to see a glimmer of hope.
But Qin Yiyan did not continue to dwell on it.
He knew that every day now was an extra bit of happiness.
What he needed to do at this moment was to cherish everything before him!
Xu Xiaoxiao had wanted to deliver that hair clip to Liu Xin'ai in person.
It was just that she had been busy attending an academic seminar these past two days and couldn't find the time, so she had sent the hairpin over first.
Two days later, Xu Xiaoxiao finally visited the Qin Family.
When she arrived, she discovered that Liu Xin'ai had already put on the hairpin.
This made Xu Xiaoxiao look her up and down, and she praised, "Not bad, it suits you very well!"
"I like it very much too, and it's all thanks to Yiyan; he was the one who helped me put it on."
Liu Xin'ai said it casually, but it caused Xu Xiaoxiao, who was drinking tea, to choke.
"What's wrong, did you burn yourself?" Liu Xin'ai helped pat her back, looking worried.
Xu Xiaoxiao waved her hand, then tried hard to steady her breathing.
Once she stopped coughing, she hurriedly asked, "What did you just say? Who helped you put it on?"
"Qin Yiyan, of course. He's very good at styling hair now; look at this ponytail, he's the one who styled it for me!"
As Liu Xin'ai spoke, she even shook her head, a look of pride on her face.
But Xu Xiaoxiao was shocked once again!
Qin Yiyan styling Liu Xin'ai's hair!?
And doing a pretty good job of it too!?
That is just too inconceivable!
Liu Xin'ai waited a long time without getting a response from Xu Xiaoxiao, so she tilted her head to look over.
Upon looking, she saw the woman with her eyes wide open.
This made Liu Xin'ai unable to help asking, "What kind of expression is that?"
"Surprise."
"Why be surprised?"
"Because the Qin Yiyan of the past would never have done such a thing!"
Speaking of the Qin Yiyan of the past...
Liu Xin'ai suddenly became interested, and she asked with a smile, "What was the Qin Yiyan of the past like?"
Bringing this up, Xu Xiaoxiao had a whole basketful of things she wanted to complain about!
But...
Looking at Liu Xin'ai's sparkling eyes, Xu Xiaoxiao swallowed those words back down.
Instead, she said, "The past is in the past. He treats you well now, and you are happy, that's enough."
"But why do I feel like something very important happened in the past?"
Liu Xin'ai raised her hand to support her chin, trying hard to ponder.
Yet Xu Xiaoxiao hoped... that Liu Xin'ai would never remember the past.
Some things are too heavy; not remembering them is a blessing!
Thinking of the past, Xu Xiaoxiao unconsciously turned serious.
And her gaze made Liu Xin'ai feel uneasy, so she asked, "Xiao Xiao, are you alright?"
Coming back to her senses, Xu Xiaoxiao said, "I'm doing just fine."
"But you looked... especially serious just now."
"I... was thinking about some work matters."
Liu Xin'ai looked at the woman in front of her, her lips moved slightly, and she said, "If you're busy, you don't have to stay with me."
"It's fine, I came here to relax. You know, doing academic work makes one prone to hair loss; I need to adjust myself to save my head of beautiful hair."
As she spoke, Xu Xiaoxiao even reached out to toss her hair.
The movement was very cool.
Liu Xin'ai watched her movement and smiled faintly.
Although Liu Xin'ai did not remember Xu Xiaoxiao, the moment the two of them interacted, Liu Xin'ai could feel that they were very compatible.
Jiang Baobao looked at the man in front of her, her heart feeling as if it had been pricked by a needle.
