CEO Wants To Marry Me After Divorce
Chapter 2040. Gu Xia Extra Chapter (242)

Just like that, Qi Miao, relying on her "mother-given status," successfully stayed in the Qi family home.

Qi Miao restrained her overwhelming glee and excitement as she finished washing up. She then looked at Qi Ming, who was sitting on the bed, lost in thought.

Hearing the movement in the bathroom, Qi Ming looked up at her. He opened his mouth several times but hesitated to speak each time.

However, his heart still held a bit of anticipation.

When he had been scolded by Qi Miao outside the Qi family gate before, he had thought she had completely lost hope in him. When the housekeeper mentioned needing several rooms, he assumed she would request a separate room.

But to his surprise, she ultimately chose to share a room with him.

At this moment, Qi Ming felt both happy and anxious, afraid that he couldn’t give Qi Miao what she wanted.

Qi Miao walked slowly to Qi Ming and called him softly, "Second Brother."

"Miaomiao, I..."

"I’m sorry, Second Brother."

Qi Miao apologized first, "I was scared earlier outside, and that’s why I said those terrible things. Please don’t be mad at me."

Seeing Qi Miao apologizing to him, Qi Ming couldn’t be angry anymore.

His previously dull eyes brightened noticeably, and he pulled Qi Miao into his arms, filled with remorse in his soft voice.

"I’m sorry, Miaomiao. It’s all my fault for not providing you with a sense of security. The one who should apologize is me, not you... "

Qi Miao leaned obediently against Qi Ming’s chest, sighing softly, "Sigh, I was really terrified too, Second Brother. Now we are not just two people, we have a child too, and we must think about our child."

She looked up at Qi Ming, her eyes filled with an indescribable sense of being wronged and helpless.

"Today, you saw mom’s attitude. She didn’t want me to enter the house. Big brother only let us come home because of the child. Now there are no grandchildren in the family, and mom only reluctantly let me in, but what about later?"

Speaking of this, her eyes showed a hint of panic.

"What if big brother gets married and has a baby? Will we still have a place in the family? Because of my situation, our parents will definitely favor big brother’s child more. How much will our child be marginalized?"

The more she spoke, the more heartbroken she became, "If it were just me, I wouldn’t care. But as a mother, how could I let my child suffer like this? Second Brother, you need to be prepared."

"We have no money or house now. If one day mom dislikes me again and kicks us out, do we really have to live in a hotel with our child?"

She began to sob softly, "Second Brother, the more I think about it, the more scared I get, I... "

"I know, I know. It’s all my fault. You’re right to think this way. We can handle the suffering ourselves, but we cannot let the child suffer with us."

Qi Ming fully agreed with what Qi Miao had said. Seeing his mother’s attitude today, he knew that she didn’t care about the child in Miaomiao’s belly at all.

If not for big brother and Xia Yumo stepping in, there was no way she would have backed down.

But at the same time, it also meant that if one day, big brother and Xia Yumo decided to say something, their family of three would have to leave.

He indeed needed to make preparations early.

Seeing that Qi Ming was clearly swayed by her words, Qi Miao secretly smiled in her heart.
