Chapter 403: Awkward Couple, Come Back to My Home

ance, a smile on her face.It had been almost seven years since they graduated from high school, but Zhu Xiaowei still looked the same as she did before."Zhu Xiaowei, I beg you to keep your family's de..."How's your injury"

Qiao Bao'er looked at him in his hospital gown, her tone awkward as she squeezed out a sentence.

She didn't walk closer, standing two meters from the foot of the bed.

Junzhi's mucker sat on the big bed, with an iron frame hanging a few bottles of intravenous fluids to his right. He had two more bottles of intravenous fluids. His gaze was deep and complex, staring at her who stood two meters away from him. She did not approach him, keeping this distance neither close nor far.

"It's nothing." He replied in a low voice.

"Oh."

Perhaps his gaze was too intense, Qiao Bao'er couldn't meet his eyes. She turned her head, her gaze flitting around the room before falling silent again.

Qiao Baoer's gaze fell on the golden pocket watch on the bedside table. Her face was calm, she didn't speak, but inside her heart was churning with some emotions.

This pocket watch is the one she asked Lu Qinian to return to her.

This pocket watch, he seemed to have it always with him, almost as if it had become a habit.

Her thoughts drifted far away, her eyes cast down as she pondered many things, until Jun Zhimu suddenly said, “Come home with me.”

She was taken aback, then looked up at his handsome face.

Jun Zhi's gaze was deep and sharp, burning like it saw right through her. He repeated in a low voice, " Qiao Bao'er, come back to Jun's house with me."

Go back home.

Jo Baoer hadn't expected him to be so direct suddenly, she was stunned and didn't know how to reply, but at least deep down, she wasn't resistant to the idea.

The phone on the bedside table rang at just the right time.

The abrupt ringing of a mobile phone broke the spell of their solitude, making things feel slightly more natural. Qiao Bao'er turned her head away from him and strode towards the bedside table.

Jun Zhi's right hand was still holding an injection, Qiao Baoer didn't feel awkward, she picked up his phone and walked to him, handing it to him.

She quickly glanced at it, which displayed the two characters 'Grandpa'.

Junzhi Mu first glanced at her. At that moment, she stood right in front of him, less than half a meter away. He reached out his left hand to take her phone, his slender fingers feeling a bit cold as they brushed against hers.

The phone kept ringing insistently. It was getting on his nerves, so Junzhi Mu quickly picked up the call.

On the other end of the phone, a coarse and angry voice growled, "What's going on!"

"Sending so many people, using the shipping routes... and yet you still managed to injure yourselves. Worthless!" Old Master Jun roared angrily.

Even without a loudspeaker, Junzhi's granddaughter Qiao Baoer could hear him clearly standing beside him. Grandpa never treated his grandson politely, he was genuinely concerned but scolded him fiercely.

Grandpa's anger surged, and he roared into the phone, "What on earth is going on between you and Qiao Baoer Why have you both run abroad Have you abandoned our twins at home"

Probably because there was no response from Junzhi's side, Old Master Jun became even angrier and scolded angrily, "...Did you hear me talking to you Get back here immediately!"

Junzhi Mu looked at his phone without saying a word, while Qiao Bao'er responded naturally with, "Got it."

On the other end of the phone, Mr. Jun was taken aback; he hadn't expected Qiao Baobao to be the one to answer.

"We're flying back today."

Junzhi's shepherd replied in a calm and measured tone, then hung up his phone first.

"Should I fly back today Isn't that a bit rushed"

When Lu Qinan and the others heard the news that they were going back to China, they were all a little surprised and disappointed. "I was planning to stay in Switzerland for another day or two after the snowstorm stopped," said one. "There are a few tourist areas near this town, and the hot springs are very famous."

Lu Qinan secretly elbowed Qiao Baier next to him, lowering his voice, "Go tell Zhi Mu that we'll play for two more days before going back."

Joe wasn't acknowledged.

Actually, she also felt a bit rushed. And although Jun Zhi Mu's back was just a minor injury, it would definitely be better to rest for another day before leaving.

However, since the shepherd has said so, he might have urgent matters to attend to back home. After all, he is a very busy man.

"Let's grab something to eat in the lobby, then leave in an hour." She walked toward her room.

Lu Qinnan looked at her back, full of resentment, "Hey, Qiao Ba'er, we rarely go out to play together. You should just stay two more days with Zhi Mu like a honeymoon trip."

Lu Gongzi's philosophy of life is to eat well, sleep well, and have fun, especially after his previous miserable experience in the snow mountain, he has to treat himself well.

Ke Qiao Bao'er heard the word 'honeymoon trip', and her steps quickened.

These sweet moments have nothing to do with her marriage.

Jun Zhi Mu's subordinates were highly efficient, and within an hour, they set off for the airport.

As they settled into the comfortable private jet, the plane smoothly and swiftly ascended into the sky. Miles above the ground, the view was a breathtaking expanse of azure blue. Although the weather remained frigid, looking out the window filled them with a sense of serenity, as if yesterday's hardship and near-death experience were just a dream.

Qiao Bao'er also felt that, sometimes when life is recalled, it really feels like a dream.

Everything went smoothly. The plane flew back to the city from Switzerland, and as soon as she got off the plane, someone came to pick her up. Before she could think too much, she was urged to get into a car, which took her straight to Jun's villa halfway up the mountain in the city.

Qiao Baoer's mind was a little muddled. This familiar, grand villa, she hadn't stepped foot in the Jun family for a long time.

When she got off the plane, before she could even say anything about transferring back to the city, Jun Zhimu seemed very pressed for time and urged her on, not even giving her a chance to refuse.

"Where's Grandpa" she asked, seeming a little awkward.

Old Mrs. Fang in front of me was beaming with joy and excitement, she warmly greeted her, "Young mistress, you're back. Old Master Jun had something urgent to attend to, he rushed about saying he needs to stay at a friend's place for a few days. Are you tired The master bedroom is ready, I've run you a bath, and the kitchen is preparing your favorite dishes..."

"Oh." Qiao Baoer faced the old woman enthusiastically, not knowing what to say, so she nodded.

As for Old Master Jun, the old man actually went out. She was originally struggling about what to say when she met the elder, after all, she last left the Jun family because she was driven out. She knew it was her aunt's request, so seeing each other was quite awkward.

She looked at the familiar yet strange Jun family before her, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"Madam, I'll take you to the nursery to see the child."

Fang Da Ma was so excited, she almost dragged herself to the nursery.

Qiao Bao'er heard 'nursery' and her expression froze. She didn't refuse, but rather seemed to be in a daze, slowly following Fang Da Ma.

Jun, the shepherd behind her, watched her reaction silently. Seeing her go upstairs with Fang's mother, a hidden nervousness he had been feeling seemed to ease slightly.

Force her, give her no chance to refuse...

His eyes were complex, this was his usual way with her.

He knew it was despicable, but what else could he do

Junzhi Mu did not go to the nursery. He went back to his master bedroom in Dongyuan, took off his coat, and took out the pocket watch from his pocket. He held it in his palm and stared at it, for so many years…

He met her, and from the very beginning, he was forcing her in secret. Suddenly, she felt physically and mentally exhausted.

Closing my eyes, I let out a long sigh.

...At least she is back. ...

Jun Zhimu sat in the master bedroom for 20 minutes. In truth, he rushed back to the country and there wasn't really anything urgent. Finally, he returned home and sat silently, taking in his bedroom with a glance, but his heart began to grow impatient. His gaze kept drifting towards the bedroom door. After 50 minutes, the door remained unknocked.

He sprang to his feet, strode purposefully, with a touch of agitation, towards the nursery.

In the nursery, Qiao Baoer didn't leave, she was still here.

He isn't good at expressing his emotions, he didn't want her to feel overwhelmed just after coming back, perhaps she's feeling very uncomfortable right now.

Junzhi's shepherd didn't want to go into the nursery. He didn't know what to talk to her about, as long as she was still at Jun's house, he turned and slowed his pace intending to go to the study.

However, Qiao'er in the nursery acted a little strangely. He glanced sideways and stared for a moment.

Jo Baoer stood quietly by the crib, first bending down and carefully reaching out to touch the two sleeping babies. Then, her profile seemed startled, quickly retracting her hand, lifting up her shirt, staring at her flat stomach, lost in thought.

"They're yours," Junzhimu said softly to the room, his tone low and resigned.

Jo Bao'er turned back in surprise, her eyes met his, and she was momentarily stunned.

Shielding herself, she bared her stomach and quickly tore off her top. She mumbled in embarrassment, "Am I dreaming... How did I have two babies" There seemed to be genuine confusion in her brows.

Those two little babies are already half a year old. I can't believe how fast time has flown by.

Junzhi Mu looked at her, and suddenly all the gloom he had been carrying in his heart vanished. He chuckled softly.k out a set of new cups and a porcelain jar of red tea from the kitchen cabinets.Water bubbles merrily, Junzhi Mu is making tea.It's the beginning of January now, and the city is still quite cold.
