“Your father’s health was already in such a state. How could you still be in the mood to care about other things? In the end, this was Xiao’er’s fault. He was adamant on stopping us from coming back sooner.

I thought I’d have a proper meal with my in-law when I got back. I didn’t think…”

Xiao Li shook her head. “Mom, you can’t blame Qin Xiao for this. I know that he wanted me to keep my father company for my sake, so he stopped you from coming back…”

In the beginning, Xiao Li was not aware. However, after she and Qin Xiao moved into the Xiao family home to take care of Xiao Zhengnan, she realized what Qin Xiao had done for her.

Seeing this, Mrs. Qin did not say anything else. She could only pat Xiao Li’s hand. “Let’s go to the in-laws’ grave tomorrow. I want to meet them…”

Xiao Li nodded.

The next day, Mr. and Mrs. Qin, together with Qin Xiao and Xiao Li, arrived at Xiao Zhengnan and Wen Lan’s graves.

Mrs. Qin put down the bouquet of flowers in her hand and said to Xiao Zhengnan and Wen Lan, “In-laws, sorry! We’re late.

I didn’t expect us to meet for the first time in such a way.

I won’t say anything else. I know that Xiao Li is your most important treasure. Don’t worry, I’ll dote on her like a daughter in the future.”

They stayed in the cemetery for a while before leaving.

On the way home from the cemetery, Mrs. Qin said hesitantly, “Xiao’er, Xiao Li, there’s still some time before school starts. Do you want to take advantage of this time to go on a honeymoon and lift your mood…”

Qin Xiao, who was driving, was a little tempted, but he turned to ask Xiao Li, who was sitting in the front passenger seat. “Do you want to go?”

Xiao Li did not answer immediately. She first turned to look at Qin Xiao beside her. The moment their eyes met, Xiao Li saw his intention.

“Let’s go …”

It was time to start a different life in this lifetime.

Qin Xiao nodded. “Okay.”

The car arrived at the Qin family villa after a while. When they got home, Mrs. Qin pulled Qin Xiao into the kitchen while Xiao Li went upstairs to change her clothes. “Xiao’er, have you and Xiao Li not done it yet?”

Qin Xiao was stunned by Mrs. Qin’s question and asked, “What?”

Mrs. Qin patted Qin Xiao’s arm. “How did you become a university professor with such a slow brain?

I meant if you and Li have consummated your marriage.

The way Xiao Li walks, she is clearly still a young girl…”

When Qin Xiao heard this, he said awkwardly, “Um… Father-in-law’s health had not been good previously… She wasn’t in the mood… I…”

Mrs. Qin gestured for him to stop talking. “Mom understands. It’s normal for Xiao Li to not be in the mood when her father was sick.

Go on a trip and take Xiao Li out to have a relaxing time…

Your father and I will go to B City first. Your sister-in-law’s delivery date is at the end of this month. Your brother is overseas again. I’ll go and keep her company.”

Qin Xiao smiled. “Got it.”

At night, when Xiao Li came out of the shower and saw Qin Xiao leaning against the bed, her face turned unnaturally red.

On the way back, when Mrs. Qin suggested a trip, Xiao Li merely thought that if Qin Xiao wanted to go, they could go together!

But when she got home, she realized that they were going on a honeymoon…

Well…

She and Qin Xiao were newlyweds.

She had spent the last moments of her previous life with Qin Xiao. This caused Xiao Li to not feel like a newlywed with Qin Xiao after she returned to this world…

In her previous life, Qin Xiao hugged her many times. In this life, they lay on the same bed every day and she didn’t feel anything.

However, when Xiao Li really became conscious that they were still newlyweds, she felt a little embarrassed sleeping with Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao was originally leaning against the bed and looking at the introduction of the scenic area on his phone. When he saw Xiao Li coming out, he put down his phone in a habitual manner and took the towel from her hand to dry her hair…

The blushing Xiao Li was seated at the side of the bed, and feeling Qin Xiao’s intimate service.

After drying her hair with the towel, Qin Xiao plugged in the hairdryer and dried Xiao Li’s hair completely before saying, “It’s done.”

Xiao Li replied with an “Oh” and sat on the other side of the bed as usual. Qin Xiao turned on his phone. “These are a few tourist attractions. Take a look to choose those places you like.”

After handing the phone to Xiao Li, Qin Xiao went to take a shower.

Xiao Li took the phone and realized that they were all foreign attractions. She searched for domestic attractions instead.

However, after reading a few introductions, Xiao Li felt that they were all similar. She was not one who loved sightseeing, so she really did not know which activity was fun.

Thinking about this, Xiao Li got out of bed and took out the phone that had been lying quietly in her bag for a month.

The night she was reborn, the first call she received was from Xiao Yan. After that call, she turned off her phone until now…

The biggest reason she hadn’t turned it on was that the initial period since coming back had felt surreal. She couldn’t believe she was really back, so she didn’t dare to turn her phone on…

She was afraid it was all a dream…

Now she had said her last goodbye to her father, unlike in her previous life when she was not able to pay her last respects. She was not disfigured with a broken leg. Everything was different from her previous life. She could finally relax.

Xiao Li picked up her phone to charge it. Then she turned it on and a bunch of WeChat messages came in…

The ones who sent the most WeChat messages were from her close friends. Some of them were private messages, while others were sent in her close friends chatgroup…

Xiao Li had a few close friends who were her dormitory roommates. They were Feng Qing, Xiao Wenjing, and Dai Zhihan.

Xiao Li took a few casual glances and stopped reading. There were too many messages. It was too tiring to read them one by one.

She opened her close friends group and sent a message…

[Which scenic spot in the country do you think is suitable for lovers to visit?]

As soon as Xiao Li sent the message, someone immediately replied.

Feng Ye Piaopiao: [Wow, damn woman, you finally appeared!

If you don’t show up soon, I’m going to report you missing.]

Disappearing Wenjing: [Crazy woman, are you focusing on the wrong point?

She’s still alive. Don’t get excited.

Why don’t you take a look at her question first?]

Zhi was moved by you: [Little Lili, tell me honestly, is there something going on?]

Xiao Li was looking at the messages when she realized that there was a video call. It turned out that the impatient Feng Qing was too lazy to send a message and sent it directly to the group chat.

Seeing this, Xiao Li got up and went to the balcony to answer the video call. As soon as the video call connected, Xiao Li was bombarded.

Although she was bombarded, Xiao Li still felt sweet when she heard their voices and saw their lively smiles.

In her previous life, after her accident, her close friends came to see her. She still remembered that Feng Qing, who was a tomboy, cried like a child. Xiao Wenjing and Dai Zhihan also cried until their eyes were swollen.

At that time, she had yet to hand over all her assets, so her first aunt was still very good to her. At that time, she was the one who had to console her friends.
