Heart Stealer

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye Qiuxue is already more than eight months pregnant.

That night, everything was silent, with only the cold moon hanging high in the sky casting its cool light.

Qiu Xue suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.

She held Xiao Tuobang's hand tightly, beads of sweat oozing from her forehead, and said in a trembling voice,

"Tuobang, I...I think I'm about to give birth."

Xiao Tuobang's face turned pale in an instant. He hurriedly hugged Qiuxue in his arms and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, honey. I'm here. I'll take you to the hospital right away."

After saying that, he turned around and anxiously told Mrs. Zhen to take good care of her eldest daughter, then he carried Qiuxue in his arms and strode towards the car parked at the door.

As the engine roared, the car rushed towards the hospital like an arrow from a bow.

The trees and street lights on both sides of the road quickly receded, forming blurred lines of light and shadow.

Qiu Xue, who was sitting in the car, curled up in a ball because of the severe pain. Every contraction felt like an invisible big hand was tearing her body apart.

She was in so much pain that she almost fainted, and her consciousness began to fade.

Xiao Tuobang was extremely anxious. While driving the car attentively, he kept turning his head to look at his wife beside him, encouraging her to hold on in a gentle but firm voice.

Finally, the car arrived at the hospital.

Before the car completely stopped, Xiao Tuobang rushed out and rushed to the emergency room with Qiu Xue in his arms.

Seeing this, the doctors and nurses who had been waiting there for a long time quickly took Qiu Xue and pushed her into the delivery room.

Xiao Tuobang paced anxiously outside the delivery room. He looked at the door from time to time, clasped his hands together, and muttered to himself: "Everyone must be safe..."

Suddenly, Qiu Xue's scream of pain was heard in the delivery room. Xiao Tuobang's face turned pale in an instant, and his heart was instantly gripped.

He rushed to the door of the delivery room and shouted anxiously: "Doctor, how is my wife?"

The doctor came out of the delivery room with a trace of fatigue on her face and said to Xiao Tuobang,

"Don't worry, everything is normal at the moment. It will take some time and strength for the mother to give birth."

After hearing this, Xiao Tuobang felt a little relieved, but he did not stop and continued to pace outside the delivery room.

After a long wait, finally, the loud cry of a baby was heard in the delivery room.

The crying sounded like the sound of nature, and Xiao Tuobang was so excited that he almost jumped up.

After a long while, the door of the delivery room finally opened slowly and the doctor pushed the door open and walked out.

Xiao Tuobang couldn't wait to step forward and asked with a slightly trembling voice,

"Doctor, how is my wife?" His eyes were fixed on the doctor's face, afraid to miss any expression.

The doctor smiled and said to Xiao Tuobang, "Congratulations, Mr. Xiao, your wife has given birth to a healthy baby boy."

Xiao Tuobang was so excited that tears filled his eyes and he rushed into the delivery room.

Qiu Xue was lying weakly on the hospital bed. When she saw her husband come in, she smiled with relief.

Xiao Tuobang held his wife's hand and said excitedly, "Thank you for your hard work, dear. Our family of four will definitely be happier in the future."

Xiao Tuobang looked at the baby in the cradle again, and he picked up the child carefully.

The child's face is pink and tender, like a cute little angel.

Xiao Tuobang looked at his son's little face and said softly to him, "Baby, Daddy will always protect you and Mommy."

At this moment, the dawn began to appear outside the window, as if foreshadowing a bright future for this family.

In the blink of an eye, my son is about to turn one month old.

Xiao Tuobang and Qiu Xue decided to hold a grand full moon banquet for their son.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of the banquet, Xiao Tuobang specially invited his good friend Ye Qingyun to come and help entertain the guests.

On the day of his son's full moon, the luxurious villa located in the suburbs of the city was decorated beautifully and filled with a festive atmosphere.

From the gate to the courtyard and every corner of the house, all are decorated with lights and colorful decorations.

Red lanterns are hung high and colorful ribbons flutter in the wind, as if the whole world is immersed in joy.

The elegant Ye Qingyun moved among the crowd, greeting and communicating with the guests warmly, making everyone feel the sincere welcome of the host.

Business elites who have close business dealings with Xiao Tuobang came in droves, dressed in their best clothes, holding gifts and with sincere smiles on their faces.

Many relatives and friends came happily to share the joy.

For a moment, the villa was crowded with people, laughter and joy were heard one after another, and it was very lively.

Qiu Xue, who had just finished her confinement, slowly walked to Xiao Tuobang with her cute baby in her arms.

She gazed tenderly at the little guy in her arms and said softly, "Tuobang, look, Xiao Bu seems to be smiling at us."

Hearing this, Xiao Tuobang quickly turned around and his eyes fell on his son.

An innocent smile bloomed on his pink little face, warming people's hearts like the warm spring sun.

Xiao Tuobang's eyes were instantly filled with endless fatherly love, and he responded affectionately,

"Yes, our baby son must have felt the joy and blessings brought by so many guests today."

Jing Tianxin and his wife Zhang Sufang held hands and led their son Jing Zhao to Qiu Xue.

Zhang Sufang looked at Qiuxue and the baby with envy, and praised sincerely,

"Qiuxue, I'm so happy for you! You're so happy now. Look at this little baby, he looks just like his dad, so handsome!"

When the relatives and friends around heard this, they all came forward and focused their attention on the baby who was just one month old.

Everyone praised the baby. Some said that the baby's eyes were bright and lively, and he would be smart in the future; others praised the baby's skin as white as snow, and said that he would be a handsome man when he grew up.

Faced with the flood of praise from everyone, Qiu Xue's face was always filled with a happy smile.

Qiu Xue and Xiao Tuobang kept expressing their gratitude to everyone.

The entire full moon banquet was filled with laughter and joy, warm and beautiful.

The banquet was coming to an end and most of the guests had left.

Jing Tianxin and Zhang Sufang came with their son Jing Zhaolai to say goodbye to Xiao Tuobang and his wife.

"Keep in touch when you have time, Tuobang." Jing Tianxin patted Xiao Tuobang's shoulder.

"Okay, be careful on the road." Xiao Tuobang nodded in response.

After seeing Jing Tianxin and her family off, Xiao Tuobang turned around and went back into the house, where he saw Qiu Xue playing with the baby.

"My son is very happy today." Qiu Xue said with a smile.

"Yes, I am very happy to see so many people love him."

Qiu Xue leaned in Xiao Tuobang's arms with a happy smile on her face.

After Ye Qingyun saw off the last group of guests, he slowly walked over to say goodbye to Xiao Tuobang and his wife.

When he saw the happy and loving appearance of Xiao Tuobang and his wife, a trace of envy and jealousy flashed in his eyes.

He thought to himself that if he had known Qiu Xue earlier than Xiao Tuobang, the person standing next to Qiu Xue might be him instead of the poor boy Xiao Tuobang.

Ye Qingyun suddenly realized that Qiu Xue was already a mother of two children.

Although he liked Qiu Xue very much, he hoped that Qiu Xue would live a happy life. He should not have any improper thoughts about Qiu Xue anymore.

He should learn to let go of the past and wish them well sincerely.

Ye Qingyun chatted with Xiao Tuobang for a while. He looked at his watch from time to time and said, "Tuobang, Qiuxue, it's getting late. I should leave too."

After saying that, Ye Qingyun turned around and prepared to leave, but after taking a few steps, he heard Xiao Tuobang's urgent shouts.

"Qingyun, wait a minute!"

He stopped and looked back in confusion, only to see Xiao Tuobang walking quickly to his side.

"My cousin Deng Minghui is also going home. Can you give her a ride?"

Ye Qingyun was slightly stunned, and his gaze turned to Deng Minghui who was standing beside him.

Deng Minghui smiled awkwardly, waved her hand and said, "Cousin, I can take a taxi back by myself, no need to trouble Mr. Ye." There was a hint of shyness in her voice.

It was already too late, Xiao Tuobang insisted: "Cousin, you don't have to be polite. We are all friends. I will feel at ease only when you and Qingyun go back!"

Ye Qingyun hesitated for a moment, nodded, and agreed.

"Okay, let's go."

Ye Qingyun and Deng Minghui walked out of the villa gate together and got into Ye Qingyun's luxurious black car.

The atmosphere in the car was extremely awkward. Both of them were silent, as if they could hear each other's heartbeats.

Ye Qingyun tried to break the silence. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, and he asked softly,

"Ms. Deng, where do you live?"

Deng Minghui's face flushed slightly, and she nervously gave the address.

"I live in the city center..." Her voice became smaller and smaller, and she seemed a little embarrassed.

Ye Qingyun smiled and nodded, started the car, and slowly drove out of the Xiao family villa.
