Chapter 2055: Chapter 2053: Intertwined Time and Space, Transformed Lives (1)

Qin Yize was also someone familiar with the kitchen, so naturally, he wouldn’t be of any hindrance when he came here.

At noon, a few simple dishes were made, and after eating, the menu for the family dinner in the evening was already well-prepared.

Without fail, after lunch, Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei needed a nap; after all, children’s height grows fastest when they sleep.

In Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei’s room, Gu Qiaoqiao was organizing the wardrobe, while Qin Yize had already coaxed the two children to sleep. He turned his head to see that Gu Qiaoqiao had finished organizing.

However, she seemed a bit tired as well. Thinking back to the busy morning, Qiaoqiao was indeed quite exhausted, so he approached her gently, saying, "Qiaoqiao, why don’t you rest for a while? There’s a family dinner tonight and we have to stay up, which will be quite tiring."

At this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao did feel somewhat drowsy. This drowsiness wasn’t from exhaustion, just a pure sleepiness.

So, Gu Qiaoqiao went to the bedroom next door to take a nap. This time, she fell asleep incredibly quickly, as soon as her head hit the pillow, she was already dreaming.

Qin Yize pulled a chair over and sat beside the bed, his brows furrowed, feeling that something was amiss...

Maybe Qiaoqiao was just really tired.

Because he couldn’t think of any other reason, he moved the chair a bit to the side, after all, someone can feel it if there is a person staring at them while they sleep.

Qin Yize picked up a book and started reading.

Time ticked by, maybe it seemed long, maybe short, but it was actually just a few minutes.

Gu Qiaoqiao, lying on the bed, suddenly began to move restlessly, clutching the blanket tightly, her brow furrowed with tiny beads of sweat on her forehead, as if she was having a nightmare.

Qin Yize reached over and held Gu Qiaoqiao’s hands, allowing the warmth from his palm to keep flowing over, infusing it with Spiritual Energy which he now generated on his own.

Then he saw Gu Qiaoqiao calm down, and he quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe away the sweat on her forehead. At this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly opened her eyes, filled with confusion and doubt, along with an inescapable sadness and despair.

All kinds of emotions flashed through her eyes one by one.

There were all sorts of emotions, but none of the usual longing and deep affection Gu Qiaoqiao showed towards Qin Yize.

Nor was there the usual cheerfulness and brightness.

Abruptly, Gu Qiaoqiao stared intently at Qin Yize, then sat up, suddenly pushing him away.

Though not very forceful, for some reason, it sent a chill through Qin Yize’s heart, making him feel cold all over, a chill rising from his feet, his body stiffening, suddenly looking incredulously at Gu Qiaoqiao, his hands clenching into fists.

Maybe to confirm again, Qin Yize took a step forward, looked intently at Gu Qiaoqiao in front of him, and said, "Qiaoqiao, you’re awake..."

But Gu Qiaoqiao warily looked at Qin Yize, unconsciously wrapping herself with the blanket, a protective posture that made Qin Yize’s heart feel as though it had fallen into Hell.

The look in Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyes was strange and indifferent.

Qin Yize seemed to understand something, yet also seemed not to understand, so he reached out, wanting to pull the blanket in front of Gu Qiaoqiao, but unexpectedly, Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly said in a low voice, "Don’t touch me!"

His hand paused in mid-air.

Qin Yize’s face turned cold.

Even his breath carried a strange chill.

After saying this, Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly froze.

She incredulously touched her throat.

Her eyes were filled with shock and confusion.

Likewise, she looked with disbelief at Qin Yize, who had a somewhat cold expression.

Then she looked around; she was in a bedroom, elegantly decorated, clean and tidy, with a faint fragrance. The room was large, spacious, and bright, with two large windows facing Chaoyang; this was the second floor, through which she could see the canopy of a few trees outside the window.

However, the tree canopy was bare, without a single leaf, a ray of sunlight streaming through the window.

Her gaze landed on the bedside table, where there was a framed photo. She suddenly widened her eyes, filled with shock as she realized it was a picture of her and Qin Yize together.

She does not recall ever living in such a house.

Nor did she remember taking a photo like this with Qin Yize.

None of this was in her memory.

At this point, Qin Yize seemed to finally understand why Uncle hesitated to speak.

He remembered Uncle only told him, even though he had speculated, no one should know; this was as close to a celestial secret as it could get, and revealing it would benefit neither him nor Qiaoqiao.

This conclusion was just something Qin Yize had analyzed and speculated on himself.

The coldness in Qin Yize’s eyes slowly turned soft; regardless of everything, this was still Qiaoqiao. He finally understood the last thing Uncle said.

Overlapping time and space, a transformed life.

The Gu Qiaoqiao in front of him was still Gu Qiaoqiao, just one from another time and space.

Yet he couldn’t ask, couldn’t speak.

He knew this Gu Qiaoqiao repelled him.

He couldn’t clarify his feelings at this moment: Qiaoqiao’s departure was without a trace, not leaving behind a single word.

But he knew he had to wait for that Qiaoqiao to return.

That was his lover, the mother of his children.

But the Qiaoqiao who just returned was in a state of panic; he couldn’t scare her. However, it was clear that the Qin Family’s Courtyard was no longer suitable for her to stay.

He had to tell her the truth, but even telling her, that was Qiaoqiao’s memory. This one was unaware and had no shared experience that could lead to mutual understanding, so she would surely slip up in front of the Qin Family members.

Qin Yize’s thin lips moved slightly, just about to speak.

But just then, the door was pushed open, and the awakened Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei happily rushed over. Seeing their mom on the bed and dad standing not far away, Xiao Bei didn’t notice anything amiss, but Xiao Bao stood there dazedly, his large dark eyes suspiciously staring at Gu Qiaoqiao on the bed, biting his lip, his small fists inexplicably clenched up.

So the two kids went in different directions. Like a little butterfly, Xiao Bei quickly darted to the bedside, skillfully climbed up, and flung herself into Gu Qiaoqiao’s arms, sweetly calling, "Mommy, Mommy."

And Xiao Bao also walked up to Qin Yize’s side, reaching out to tug at the corner of his dad’s sweater, looking up at him with a trembling voice, "Papa, where did Mama go?"

As he asked, his voice already had a sobbing tone.

Gu Qiaoqiao on the bed was stunned, her body instantly turning rigid.

Lying on her, Xiao Bei was completely unaware, giggling, "Silly brother, can’t you see Mommy is right here?"
