A skin-thirsty episode occurred, in her brother's arms.

Ruan Tianen and Xu Ling were very busy. After resolving Qin Ge's matter, they went abroad again and didn't return for more than two months. They were worried that Xu Xingchen would sneak out again, so they hired a few more people at home.

During this period, Xu Xingchen and Qin Ge lived and ate together.

Even when Yun Ci came to see Qin Ge, Qin Ge insisted on holding Xu Xingchen's hand.

Yun Ci had considered bringing Qin Ge back. Firstly, Qin Ge was experiencing some psychological issues and only recognized Xu Xingchen.

He would only listen to a few words from Xu Xingchen, but he completely ignored what others said.

The doctor said it was because of severe psychological trauma, which triggered a self-defense mechanism.

His current situation is much better now that he has left his previous living environment.

Secondly, the Yun and Qin families are in complete disarray, and the company's affairs are still unresolved, leaving her with no time to spare.

Therefore, Qin Ge stayed at the Xu family home and was inseparable from Xu Xingchen all day long.

Qin Ge spoke for the first time.

It was when Xu Xingchen was clinging to Ruan Tianen and Xu Ling's legs and acting coquettishly.

Xu Xingchen hadn't seen Ruan Tianen and Xu Ling for a while. He was still young, and he was being both spoiled and complaining.

The two took turns holding Xu Xingchen, coaxing him by calling him "baby" repeatedly.

Qin Ge stood behind them and called out, "Xingxing."

In an instant, everyone was stunned and turned to look at Qin Ge.

For more than two months, Qin Ge remained silent and taciturn, ignoring everyone and everything around him except Xu Xingchen.

The doctor comes to check on him regularly, but no matter how the doctor tries to guide or ask questions, he remains expressionless and doesn't answer a single word.

No one expected that after so long of silence, the first thing he said was not to his mother Yun Ci, nor anything else, but simply to call out Xu Xingchen's name.

The two soft, affectionate words landed gently in the living room, creating a silence that left one speechless.

Xu Xingchen peeked out from his parents' arms, his round eyes sparkling with surprise and delight: "Brother, you called me?"

Qin Ge looked up, his gaze fixed on him, and nodded slightly.

He walked slowly and cautiously to Xu Xingchen's side and gently grasped the hem of his clothes.

The force was very light, carrying a hint of barely perceptible panic, as if afraid that if the person in front of them were to let go, they would disappear.

Ruan Tianen and Xu Ling exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with a bittersweet feeling.

They've been busy working remotely for the past two months, and their biggest worry is their two children.

They hadn't known Qin Ge for very long, but they felt sorry for him.

He was so withdrawn, never speaking a word, and clinging to his children was heartbreaking. Hearing him speak on his own initiative is the biggest improvement.

From that day on, Qin Ge still refused to speak, but at least there was progress, which was good news.

We recently hired a maid who is meticulous and attentive, preparing three meals a day on time and providing a full range of snacks and fruits.

But Qin Ge trusted no one and stayed away from everyone.

When it was time to eat, the servants brought the food to the table and placed it in front of the two of them.

Qin Ge didn't touch his chopsticks; he sat quietly, his eyes fixed on Xu Xingchen.

Xu Xingchen was already used to his temperament, so she picked up the small spoon and obediently fed him.

A mouthful of rice, a mouthful of vegetables, were slowly fed into his mouth.

Occasionally, if the food was not at the right temperature and was a little too hot, Qin Ge would not flinch or frown, but would quietly swallow it, letting him do as he pleased throughout.

Only Xu Xingchen gently reminded him, "Eat slowly, no rush."

Only then would he slightly slow down his chewing, obediently respond, and give a soft "hmm".

If a maid wants to help feed the children or clear the dishes, she should approach the dining table.

Qin Ge, who was originally eating docilely, would instantly turn cold and his eyes would turn cold, and he would stand up defensively.

His eyes were cold and intimidating.

He raised his hand and pushed away what the other person was offering.

The servants dared not approach any further and could only stand at a distance.

Xu Xingchen would always gently coax him, "They are good people, they won't bully us."

Qin Ge neither listened nor acknowledged it.

In his world, he only recognizes Xu Xingchen.

Even Ruan Tianen and Xu Ling were not allowed to get close.

Only Xu Xingchen can touch him, feed him, get close to him, and control him.

He had a strong learning ability. After Xu Xingchen fed him twice, Qin Ge mastered the method and began to feed Xu Xingchen with a spoon.

He stubbornly insisted on waiting for Xu Xingchen to finish eating before he would pick up his chopsticks; if Xu Xingchen didn't eat, he wouldn't eat either.

Most of the time, Xu Xingchen was quiet, and Qin Ge didn't say anything either, but the atmosphere between the two was very good. Xu Xingchen didn't know how Qin Ge managed to do it, as they had only known each other for a few months.

Qin Ge was familiar with almost all of his thoughts and ulterior motives.

With just a glance from him, Qin Ge could accurately produce what he wanted in the next second.

During the day, Xu Xingchen stays at home reading books and building blocks, quietly sitting on the carpet playing.

Qin Ge sat cross-legged beside him, not playing with toys, not reading books, not doing anything, just staring at him intently.

His gaze was fixed on Xu Xingchen, and he wouldn't look away for a moment.

Xu Xingchen stacked the blocks incorrectly and pouted in quiet frustration. So he reached out and clumsily helped him straighten the misplaced blocks.

The movements were clumsy and cautious, as if afraid of damaging the patterns the children had pieced together.

Xu Xingchen was engrossed in reading the book, occasionally reading the words aloud in a soft, childlike voice.

Qin Ge listened quietly, his obsidian-like eyes fixed on Xu Xingchen without moving an inch.

Xu Xingchen was tired from playing and leaned back on the sofa to doze off, her little head nodding off.

Qin Ge sat down next to him, leaned down slightly, carefully reached out to support the back of his head, and gently leaned him against his shoulder.

His posture was stiff and his movements clumsy, yet he was exceptionally earnest.

She didn't dare to move at all, and even her breathing was extremely soft, for fear of waking the child in her arms.

One night, the temperature dropped, and the evening breeze was slightly cool.

Xu Xing kicked off the blanket while sleeping, leaving half of her body exposed.

Qin Ge, who was fast asleep, was instantly awakened, more sensitive than anyone else.

He immediately sat up, gently covered himself with the blanket again, carefully tucking the corners in, and lightly touched Xu Xingchen's slightly cool cheek with his fingertips to make sure he was alright before lying back down and holding him tightly.

The movements were slow and careful throughout.

Yun Ci would take time out of his busy schedule to visit the Xu family every now and then.

Every time she came, she would bring a bunch of things Qin Ge liked when he was a child, brand new toys and clothes, and speak to him softly, trying to make up for her past mistakes.

But Qin Ge remained oblivious and deaf to everything from beginning to end.

No matter what Yun Ci said or what he took, he wouldn't spare a single glance for the other person.

She held Xu Xingchen's hands tightly with both hands, pressed her whole body against Xu Xingchen's side, and stayed close to him.

Yun Ci watched this scene with a sense of helplessness, but she could only accept it.

Even though she called Qin Siyuan every few days to inquire about Qin Ge's situation, it couldn't cover up the fact that she had neglected her duties.

Some mistakes are just mistakes; it's her fault for misjudging people and being blinded by Qin Siyuan, which ultimately harmed Qin Ge.
