Heart Stealer

The Xiao family not only runs three noodle shops in Platycodon Town, but also rents a farm in the countryside.

Xiao Tuobang was worried that his parents were too tired, so he hired professionals to help manage the noodle shop and farm affairs.

Farm work has not been so busy recently, so he brought his parents to the city, allowing them to get away from the hustle and bustle of the farmland and shops and enjoy a moment of peace and quiet.

On the other side of the city, Mrs. Qiu was sitting in her spacious living room, holding the phone with a frown on her face.

She hadn't seen Qiu Xue for two weeks, and her longing for her daughter became more and more intense.

She couldn't help but call her daughter, "Qiuxue, you haven't been home for so long. Mom really misses you. Can you come back and have dinner with us today?"

Qiu Xue has been busy taking care of her parents-in-law who came to the city from the countryside and has neglected her parents recently. She feels a little guilty about it and promised her mother that she would go back to have dinner with them.

Xiao Tuobang was too busy with work to get away, so Qiuxue had to go back to her parents' home alone.

When she stepped into the house, a familiar and warm scent hit her face.

Qiu Xue walked into the kitchen and saw her mother chopping vegetables while her father was helping her.

She walked over to her mother and said with a smile, "Mom, let me help you."

The mother smiled and shook her head, letting her go and rest.

Qiu Xue walked to the dining table and sat down, looking at the delicious food in front of her. Every dish was her favorite. Her heart was filled with emotion.

My father brought out a plate of steaming steamed hairy crabs and placed it on the table. He smiled and said, "Qiuxue, this is your favorite steamed hairy crab. Come and try it."

Qiuxue picked up a steamed hairy crab and was immediately intoxicated by the familiar taste.

Qiuxue ate delicious food while chatting with her parents.

After dinner, Qiuxue sat with her parents in the living room, sipping tea and enjoying the rare family reunion time.

Suddenly, Qiuxue's cell phone rang, breaking the silence in the room. She picked up the phone and saw that it was a call from her mother-in-law.

Qiu Xue couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. She picked up the phone and her mother-in-law asked anxiously on the other end of the line, "Daughter-in-law, your father has already prepared the meal. We are waiting for you to come back and eat."

After hearing what her mother-in-law said, Qiu Xue smiled and said, "Mom, I understand. I'll go back right away."

After hanging up the phone, Qiu Xue hurriedly said goodbye to her parents.

Mrs. Qiu looked at her daughter's departing back and sighed, "Alas, a daughter who is married off is like spilled water! I should have found a live-in son-in-law for her earlier."

Qiu Rongyao comforted his wife, saying, "Forget it. The child is grown up and has her own choices. We should respect her decision. As long as she is happy, we are satisfied."

Besides, transportation is so convenient nowadays, we can visit her anytime, or she can come back to visit us often."

After listening to her husband's words, Mrs. Qiu's worries gradually dissipated.

At night, a bright moon hangs in the sky like a huge silver plate.

The moonlight sprinkles on the earth like water, bringing a touch of tranquility and peace to the whole world.

The hustle and bustle of the city gradually faded away, replaced by a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

Xiao Tuobang stood quietly in front of the window, gazing intently at the starry sky outside.

An indescribable feeling of emotion and gratitude welled up in his heart.

Ever since his parents came from the countryside to the city and lived with them, Xiao Tuobang felt that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavier.

What comforted him was that his wife Qiu Xue gave him great support.

She not only takes good care of her parents' daily life, but also often accompanies them for walks and chats, allowing the two elderly people to feel the warmth and care of the family.

Xiao Tuobang has always seen and remembered Qiu Xue's contribution to the family.

If Qiuxue hadn't been at home doing housework and taking care of the elderly, it would have been impossible for me to go out to work and earn money to support the family with peace of mind.

Xiao Tuobang secretly felt fortunate to have married such a virtuous wife.

Xiao Tuobang turned and walked towards the bedroom, holding an exquisite jewelry box in his hand.

He gently pushed the door open and saw Qiu Xue sitting in front of the dressing table, combing her long hair.

He walked over gently, handed the jewelry box to Qiu Xue, and said softly, "Wife, you have worked hard during this period. This is a little gift from me."

Qiu Xue raised her head, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

She opened the box, revealing an exquisite gold necklace, the diamond pendant sparkling in the light.

She looked up at Xiao Tuobang, her eyes filled with emotion: "Thank you, husband."

Xiao Tuobang smiled, gently took the necklace out of the box, walked behind Qiu Xue, and carefully put it on her.

His fingers touched the back of her neck, feeling her warmth and the delicate texture of her skin.

After putting it on, he stepped back and admired the beauty of his wife wearing the necklace, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's beautiful."

Qiu Xue's face turned red, and she leaned shyly on Xiao Tuobang's chest, feeling his heartbeat and warmth.

Xiao Tuobang looked down at his wife, kissed her cherry lips, and said gently: "Tonight, let's forget all our worries and enjoy the time that belongs to the two of us."

After saying that, he gently picked up Qiu Xue and walked carefully towards the bed.

Qiu Xue hugged her husband tightly, her body trembling slightly, feeling both anticipation and nervousness.

Xiao Tuobang put Qiuxue on the bed, then leaned over and kissed her forehead, eyes, cheeks, and finally her lips.

His kiss was passionate and gentle, making Qiu Xue respond involuntarily.

Their clothes gradually took off, and when their skin touched, Qiu Xue couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Xiao Tuobang's hands gently stroked her body, bringing a tingling sensation.

At this moment, Xiao Tuobang's phone suddenly rang. He stopped and picked up the phone with an annoyed look on his face.

"Damn, who calls at this time..."

Qiu Xue said softly, "Maybe there's something urgent, you should answer it."

Xiao Tuobang nodded and answered the phone. However, his expression became increasingly grim.

"Okay, I understand. I'll be right over..."

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Tuobang looked at Qiu Xue apologetically and said, "Something happened at the company and I have to go over and deal with it."

Qiu Xue quickly got up and helped him put his clothes in order. "It's okay, go ahead. Business is more important."

Xiao Tuobang hugged Qiu Xue tightly, then left in a hurry.

Qiu Xue lay on the bed, feeling a little lost.

But she also understood that Xiao Tuobang was a responsible man and she should support his work.
