She was really afraid. She was afraid of seeing the people she cared about get hurt.
"I knew that if I told you, you would be like this." Huangfu Qiye sighed helplessly and promised her, "I won't go down the mountain for a while. I'll always be with you. Are you still afraid?"
"As long as you're with us, I won't be afraid." Tang Xiaowei finally let out a sigh of relief when she heard him promise not to go down the mountain. Then, she reached out and hugged him tightly.
Huangfu Qiye also reached out and hugged her.
However, from an angle that she could not see, there was a hint of ambiguity in his expression.
After that, Huangfu Qiye ate breakfast. Because he had accumulated a lot of work over the past few days, he could only go upstairs to work in the study.
Tang Xiaowei did not disturb him.
Before coming here, she had planned to open a coffee shop here.
However, because of last night's matter, she could not go out casually. So, she could only temporarily put aside the matter of opening a coffee shop.
As for Xiao Anan's words, Huangfu Qiye had already arranged classes for the little guy, so she did not need to worry about anything.
After Huangfu Qiye went to the study room.
She suddenly realized that she actually had nothing to do.
She was a little emotional for a moment, and could not remember how long it had been since she had enjoyed such a relaxing time.
In the past few years, besides going to school, she also had to take care of An An. After graduation, she opened a shop to earn money, so she was very busy almost every day. She had no time to really relax and rest.
However, today was only the first day she returned to the forest manor, and she had nothing to do.
Thus, she remembered the matter of her promise to decorate An An's room last night.
Then, she went to find the housekeeper of the forest manor and wrote a list for him, asking him to buy all the things he needed. Before tonight, she had to decorate An An's bedroom.
On this day, Huangfu Qiye was very busy. He was completely busy with work.
Xiao Anan was also very busy. He was busy learning martial arts. Even though he was still young, he was learning it with joy.
As for Tang Xiaowei, she was also very busy. When the sky was almost dark, the room that looked like a guest room yesterday had already been decorated by her in a very cute and childlike manner. It was not much different from Xiao Anan's house from before. It was all light blue.
Moreover, there were many toys that Xiao Anan liked in the room.
She finally let out a sigh of relief.
She let the other servants go down to rest and cleaned the room again.
After all the cleaning was done, her forehead began to sweat.
Suddenly, she heard footsteps behind her.
She turned around and saw Huangfu Qiye walking in.
"Why are you here? Are you done with work?" After breakfast that day, they had only met once during lunch, and she was the only one who accompanied An An during their afternoon nap. Huangfu Qiye had to go to a video conference, so after lunch, he hurriedly returned to the study room.
After that, she accompanied An An to take a nap. An An went to continue with his lessons while she continued to decorate his room.
"It's already dark. Of course, I have to leave work and have dinner with you." Huangfu Qiye hadn't finished his work yet, but he could still do it later. Therefore, Huangfu Qiye, who usually didn't like to postpone his work, was willing to have dinner with his beloved. He was also willing to free up his time.
Tang Xiaowei looked outside the window. As expected, it was already completely dark.
She had also finished decorating the room, so she heaved a sigh of relief. "Then let's go have dinner..."
Before she could finish what she wanted to say, she stopped because of his actions.
He walked over, pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket, and wiped the sweat off her forehead. He frowned. "Next time, don't do this kind of thing yourself. Seeing you so tired, my heart aches."
"But this is to decorate the room for An An. He's our child, and I want to decorate it for him personally. Also, there are servants who help me. I'm not the only one who decorated it, so I'm not tired at all." Tang Xiaowei shook her head. What she did was just a little physical labor.
If one were to say that one felt sorry for the other, it should be her.
She reached out and touched his cheek. "Your eyes are bloodshot. You're under too much pressure. Don't be busy later. Just rest after dinner."
"Okay." Huangfu Qiye could clearly see that she felt sorry for him. His heart suddenly felt sweet.
He had originally planned to work during the day and would definitely put down work earlier to accompany her at night.
Thus, the two of them prepared to go downstairs for dinner.
At that moment, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard outside the door. Following that, Yuan Qi's worried voice could be heard as well. "Young master, please take your time. Don't fall down."
Xiao Anan replied indifferently, "It's fine. Don't worry."
Thus, in the next second, Xiao Anan's little figure appeared at the door of the room.
He panted as he looked at the two people inside the door. When he saw that the room inside was decorated very much like the room he had stayed in before, he immediately jumped up in joy. "Dad, mom, is this my room? Mom, have you already helped An An decorate it? It's so beautiful. Thank you, mom."
Huangfu Qiye had only spent a short while with Tang Xiaowei when this little fellow appeared. He frowned slightly and gave Yuan Qi, who had rushed over from behind, a look.
However, when Yuan Qi received his young master's signal and was about to go forward and carry the joyous Xiao Anan away, Tang Xiaowei had already let go of Huangfu Qiye's hand because she saw that her son liked the room that she had decorated. She went forward and held Xiao Anan's hand. "Does An An really like it? If you don't, Mommy will help you redecorate it tomorrow."
"I like it very much. You don't have to trouble yourself, mom. It's very beautiful like this." Xiao Anan was very satisfied, so he naturally wouldn't trouble his mother. He waved at Tang Xiaowei. "Mom, to thank you, lower your head and I'll give you a gift."
Tang Xiaowei smiled and lowered her head. Then, in the next second, Xiao Anan quickly and shyly kissed her on the cheek.
"Mom, to thank you, I'll give you a kiss."
Tang Xiaowei had always kissed the little guy's cheek in the past, so she didn't think it was a big deal. She just felt that Xiao Anan was quite obedient today.
However, President Huangfu, who was standing at the side, didn't think so.
This little brat actually dared to kiss his woman in front of him.
Even though the child was still young and was just purely thanking her, it still made President Huangfu very unhappy.
Unfortunately, the only one who realized that he was unhappy was Yuan Qi, who was outside the door. However, Yuan Qi didn't dare to say anything. He could only try his best to act like air and not become cannon fodder that young master sacrificed in his anger.
