Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1257: The Clingy Little Troublemaker Wife
Then he saw those long, jade-like hands cutting the leather into the right shape, and chiseling the wood into a form high at both ends and low in the middle.
Gu Qiaoqiao gazed lovingly at those hands.
Those hands can hold a gun, carve wood, and even ignite fires on her body...
Oh my, is she being a bit too lustful? How come, in the end, her thoughts revolve around this topic? Fortunately, Qin Yize is focused on crafting the saddle, unaware his little wife’s cheeks have quietly turned red again.
Then Gu Qiaoqiao hurried to divert her attention, avoiding such thoughts, and she asked, "Ah Ze, when you came, did you see a small town nearby? There’s a noodle shop there, and a few miles away seems to be your troop’s camp."
Qin Yize focused intently on his work, paused slightly upon hearing Gu Qiaoqiao’s words, and shook his head, "I know the town you mentioned, but I’ve never been to the noodle shop."
"Oh..." Gu Qiaoqiao replied softly.
Only then did Qin Yize raise his eyes to glance at Gu Qiaoqiao and gently asked, "Is there something special about that noodle shop?"
Gu Qiaoqiao was startled inside, not expecting Qin Yize to be so perceptive. She quickly shook her head and said, "No, it’s just a noodle shop, their beef noodles are very tasty, and Chu Chengfeng had one bowl and wasn’t satisfied, so he ordered another."
"Getting praise from Qiaoqiao, the culinary skills must be quite impressive, and that guy Chu Chengfeng is also quite picky. Him eating two bowls proves the noodles really are good."
"When we go back, I’ll take you there to eat," Gu Qiaoqiao said cheerfully.
Qin Yize nodded and teased, "I have to see who can cook noodles better than you in this world."
"There are always people better than us," Gu Qiaoqiao said, widening her watery eyes and raising her voice.
She wasn’t being arrogant, right?
"Very humble, my Qiaoqiao is improving again," Qin Yize praised slowly.
Gu Qiaoqiao smiled sweetly, "Being with you ensures I improve every day."
"Oh?" Qin Yize raised an eyebrow, "Do I have such a skill?"
"Yes, don’t you know it yourself?"
"Of course I know."
"Getting proud, huh?"
"Hmm." Qin Yize nodded, immediately self-reflecting, "My attitude was a bit prideful, I’m reflecting..."
"How will you reflect?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked seriously.
Qin Yize sought Gu Qiaoqiao’s opinion, "You decide."
Gu Qiaoqiao pretended to think for a moment, "Then write a written reflection."
Qin Yize agreed readily, "No problem."
Gu Qiaoqiao laughed joyfully.
Perhaps this is what marital interaction is like.
Exchanging words in a vibrant conversation, with no central topic or theme, letting thoughts wander freely, yet flowing smoothly like a gentle stream.
Or perhaps like Gu Qiaoqiao at this moment, speaking then leaning onto Qin Yize’s back, her lips softly breathing air onto Qin Yize’s cheek, fragrant as an orchid.
"Ah Ze, when we’re old, let’s return to this ranch, okay?"
"Okay." Qin Yize’s heart stirred with the gentle warmth at his back, yet he nodded without hesitation.
He especially liked to hear Gu Qiaoqiao talk about the future, about growing old together.
"...When we’re old, we’ll come back to this ranch, build a few houses, pave a road..." After a pause, Gu Qiaoqiao continued, "Then open a vegetable garden, raise a herd of cattle and sheep, and plant flowers all around the ranch’s fences, preferably morning glories, roses would be nice too..."
Gu Qiaoqiao’s voice was full of longing.
Qin Yize put down his work and stretched his long arms to turn the little troublemaker wife on his back into his embrace.
Then, placing her on his lap, he lowered his head and kissed her rosy lips a few times before smiling and saying, "Silly girl, you’re just how old, and you’re already thinking so far ahead, speaking with such anticipation. Someone who doesn’t know might think you’re ready to retire..."
This time, Gu Qiaoqiao remained silent but gazed steadily at Qin Yize, who looked down at her. Her large, bright eyes continued to exude a charming luster.
Just like the shimmering waters of Crescent Lake.
Yet in a world unknown to anyone, Gu Qiaoqiao knew herself well and buried her head in his embrace, gently snuggling, then nestled against his chest without moving.
Only Gu Qiaoqiao knows that the beautiful young girl days have long passed in her previous life.
In this life, though reborn in her youthful years, she feels her heart is still full of vicissitudes, and even though no tragedies have occurred, the pain from her past life cannot quickly vanish in just a few short years.
It’s just that over the past year or so, under Qin Yize’s pampering and her family’s love, she felt like a twenty-year-old girl.
But once she leaves this environment, she can’t help maturing.
Seeing Gu Qiaoqiao not speaking, Qin Yize gently patted her back and softly asked, "What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
Gu Qiaoqiao shook her head in his embrace, "You didn’t say anything wrong. Sometimes I feel like my mindset is really old." She admitted half-truthfully.
Qin Yize pressed his cheek against Gu Qiaoqiao’s, gently rubbing, feeling connected skin to skin. Only this could express the depth of his love at this moment. He murmured apologetically, "Qiaoqiao, it’s all my fault. If I were by your side all the time, you wouldn’t have grown up so quickly. I’m an inadequate husband."
Gu Qiaoqiao lifted her head from his embrace, looking at Qin Yize’s earnest face, thinking that maybe her sudden emotions had influenced Qin Yize.
Making him speak from the heart.
This really wasn’t necessary.
And it’s truly not Qin Yize’s fault.
On the contrary, Qin Yize let her experience the joy of mutual affection.
Let her feel like a happy young girl again.
Thinking of this, Gu Qiaoqiao turned her bright eyes, pushed Qin Yize away, got off him, giggling with a bit of a playful tone, "I just really like our Qiaoze Ranch, dreaming a little long term, it’s not as serious as you say. Alright, hurry up and finish, if we have time, maybe I can ride Yun Duo for a lap."
Qin Yize lifted his head and seriously looked at the lowered Gu Qiaoqiao, his gaze immensely serious as if trying to see if there was any emotion in Gu Qiaoqiao’s face hidden forcefully.
After a while, Qin Yize felt a bit relieved. Qiaoqiao probably just felt a moment of sentiment.
