When Qiu Ling came out with the hot fried chicken, Xia Yu had already withdrawn her gaze, calmly picked up the paper cup on the coffee table, and took another sip of tea.

"Smells so good! Thank you brother!" Ji Xiaming happily thanked Qiu Ling again, and then grabbed the chopsticks to twist the chicken legs, but her hands are small, it is inconvenient to hold chopsticks, and she is not proficient in using them , so the gnawing was very twists and turns, half of the face was covered with oil.

Xia Yu turned her head and saw that her face was stained with oil and bread crumbs, and she felt a headache again, and said, "Mingming, hold your chopsticks carefully."

"It's okay." Qiu Ling said with a smile, "I'll get her disposable gloves, it's more convenient."

Ji Xiaming put on gloves, and sat on the stool eating fried chicken happily. Qiu Ling turned on the TV for her so that she could watch while eating.The two adults sat side by side on the sofa, carefully separated by half a meter, chatting with each other.

"Mingming is really cute." This time, Qiu Ling actually took the initiative to talk to Xia Yu, "That's great..."

Xia Yu shook his head with a smile and said, "Mingming is actually quite naughty."

"Daddy! You speak ill of me! I hear you!" complained the child sitting at the table.

"I didn't say anything bad about you! Dad was praising your brother for being obedient and sensible!" Xia Yu retorted.

Ji Xiaming snorted lightly, expressing that she didn't believe this clumsy lie, but she didn't care about him, she lowered her head and continued to eat fried chicken seriously.

"Actually, if you like children, you can have one." After Xia Yu suggested, he asked, "Are you newlyweds?"

The pregnancy rate of omega is higher than that of female beta, and it also has the blessing of estrus, so normal AO couples will generally have children within one year of marriage.

"That's not..." When it came to the topic of marriage, Qiu Ling suddenly became a lot nervous, twisting her hands on her knees and repeating, "We've been married for more than three years. It's just that before Not ready to…”

More than three years.

Xia Yu accurately captured the key words.In his memory, Qiu Ling suddenly disappeared almost from that time.But because Qiu Ling had just debuted not long ago, and only released a mini-album, which was not very popular, it didn't cause much splash, and gradually no one paid attention to this matter.

Could it be that Qiu Ling suddenly disappeared because of her marriage?A guess suddenly popped up in Xia Yu's mind.

"It's been more than three years." Xia Yu smiled and praised Qiu Ling, "You look like you are in your early twenties, and you feel quite young. I didn't expect you to get married so early."

Qiu Ling is indeed only in her early twenties.He married Qin Yichen when he was 19, and he is only 23 now.

"I may...look smaller." Qiu Ling forced a smile, her face turned pale, and she lowered her eyes because she was guilty of lying and dared not look at Xia Yu, "Actually, I'm 26 this year."

"Then you are only three years younger than me." Xia Yu saw that Qiu Ling's expression was not right, and quickly changed the subject, "I'll go and see if Mingming is finished."

"Hmm..." Qiu Ling responded softly, still sitting on the sofa.

He didn't want and didn't dare to let others know what happened to him.Because he couldn't escape Qin Yichen's control at all, the neighbors couldn't help him, and the police wouldn't bother him. If he told Qin Yichen to find out, he would only get beaten up a few more times.

After Ji Xiaming ate the fried chicken, his stomach was swollen and he started to feel sleepy.Sitting on the stool, she tugged sleepily at the hem of Xia Yu's clothes, and said with her little head, "Dad... I want to sleep."

"Then let's go back to sleep." Xia Yu picked her up from the stool and hugged her in his arms, and said to Qiu Ling who was on the sofa, "I'll take Mingming home first."

Qiu Ling stood up to see them off and said, "Okay."

Xia Yu opened the door and went out. After taking two steps, she stopped again and turned to look at Qiu Ling.

"What's wrong?" Qiu Ling asked.

"It's okay." Xia Yu finally shook his head and went home with the child in his arms.

He put Ji Xiaming gently on the small bed, and while covering her slippers with a quilt, he thought: Qiu Ling seems to be very resistant to being asked about her marriage, which is strange.

Because Xia Yu has been staying at home with children, she has been an omega friend since a long time ago. She is quite familiar with the omega housewives upstairs and downstairs. Of course, she also knows what omega wives in normal AO families are like——say To put it mildly, it is called extroverted and talkative. To put it bluntly, it is called talkative.They often like to tell others about their husbands and children, and also like to talk about their family life, with a tone of comparison and showing off.

Qiu Ling is really rare.So Xia Yu was sure that Qiu Ling must have suffered something.

There are bruises on her body, maybe she was abused by her husband.Concealing his age may be because he was forced to marry early.

Qiu Ling's real age can actually be found online, but Qiu Ling didn't know that Xia Yu actually knew him, so she thought that if she lied, Xia Yu wouldn't know.

But Xia Yu couldn't ask him directly about these matters.Judging by Qiu Ling's face turning pale when she mentioned her marriage, she probably doesn't want to tell the truth.

And to Qiu Ling, at best, he is just an unfamiliar neighbor whom he has only known for less than a week.Not to mention whether he has the position to help, if he is too self-indulgent, maybe he will cause trouble for Qiu Ling.

It's really hard to do.

Xia Yu sighed, left the room and closed the door, leaving Ji Xiaming to sleep inside alone.And he came to the cabinet and pulled out a CD case from among the many picture books.

This is Qiu Ling's mini-album "Fet" that he bought back then.

The youth on the album cover is young and innocent, with his eyes closed but the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, smiling serenely and enjoying himself.It gives people a feeling that even if they are in the bottom of the sea, they are still full of hope.

And now?

Xia Yu recalled how he and Qiu Ling looked when they met for the first time a few days ago - Qiu Ling was wearing a plain long-sleeved jacket, but it couldn't hide his slender figure, with prints on the side of his neck and collarbone. There are a few inconspicuous hickey marks.After being nourished by love, he has become charming and docile, like a ripe fruit that can ooze sweet juice when pinched.Qiu Ling, who has become a wife, is indeed very different.

Xia Yu sighed, stared silently at the young man on the album cover for half a minute, and put it back again.

Children can sleep well, and Ji Xiaming sleeps until dinner time before waking up.

After eating, Xia Yu accompanied her to finish the rest of the homework. It was already 10:30 in the evening, but Ji Yunyan hadn't returned yet.

Ji Yunyan was still in heat, Xia Yu was worried that something might happen to him, so he called to ask about it, but Ji Yunyan never answered.

Hearing the busy tone of "beep" on the phone again but no one answered, Xia Yu was so anxious that he was about to call the police directly. He was about to go to the law firm to check the situation. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Ji Yunyan come back——

But he didn't come back alone, but with Bai Jiayang in his arms.
