Chapter 2634 - 2649: Growing Old With the One You Love 2

The three children looked at me, then at each other, and then bowed their heads together to eat.

After dinner, Xiao Yi took Baobei and Xia Tian back to the room.

Lin Yin looked at her daughter, who was sitting there absentmindedly, sat down beside her, and asked, "Tell me, what’s really going on with you two?"

"Mom, I’m sorry, I lied to you. Beiming Han and I have long since separated." Gu Qingxin confessed the truth.

"Separated? Then what about Xia Tian and Baobei? What about the children? How pitiful it is for them to be without a father?" At this moment, Lin Yin’s heart was entirely focused on the two children.

Gu Qingxin wanted to say that Baobei was not Beiming Han’s child, but this web of lies, she really couldn’t say it to her mother.

"Aren’t they doing just fine now? In the future, they’ll have their grandmother’s love." Gu Qingxin smiled a bit reluctantly.

Lin Yin was silent for a few seconds and then asked, "And what about you? You clearly still love him, yet you’ve separated. Aren’t you heartbroken?"

"I’m not..."

"Qingxin, I may not be your biological mother, but I’ve raised you since you were small. How could I not understand you? You might be able to deceive everyone in the world, but you can’t fool me." Lin Yin held her daughter’s hand.

Tears instantly fell from Gu Qingxin’s eyes. "Mom, I’m used to it."

She had grown accustomed to the pain, just like getting used to the air, making the pain no longer matter.

Seeing her daughter’s expression, Lin Yin felt an intense pain in her heart. She sighed helplessly, "Silly girl, you should know, in life, it’s not easy to meet someone you truly love. Being with the one you love is an immense blessing. You must cherish it."

"Mom, please stop. It’s over between us." Gu Qingxin shook her head.

"Qingxin, I can see that he loves you, and you love him too... So why not try starting over again? Maybe it’s not as difficult as you think."

Lin Yin really didn’t want her daughter to miss out on the love of her life. She would surely regret it.

"Mom."

"Alright, I’m tired too. Tonight, keep me company while we sleep. It’s been a long time since we slept together." Lin Yin affectionately tucked her daughter’s stray hair behind her ear.

Gu Qingxin nodded earnestly, resting her head on her mother’s shoulder. Ever since she got together with Beiming Han, that domineering fool wouldn’t even let her come home to sleep, let alone sleep with her mom.

Tonight, with her mother by her side, Gu Qingxin slept exceptionally soundly, just like when she was a child...

...

The next morning, when Gu Qingxin woke up, her mom was no longer by her side. She got out of bed and left the bedroom. Upon hearing sounds from the kitchen, she walked over. At the kitchen door, she saw her mom preparing breakfast for the family.

Gu Qingxin walked in and hugged her mom from behind. "Children with a mom beside them are so blessed!"

"I can’t be with you forever." Lin Yin turned back and smiled.

"Why not? I believe mom can live to two hundred." Gu Qingxin planted a kiss on her mom’s cheek. Compared to Beiming Qianqian, that irresponsible biological mother, Gu Qingxin only recognized Lin Yin as her mom.

"You... what I mean is, you have to accompany the one you love until old age for life to be truly fulfilling." Lin Yin turned around and playfully poked her forehead.

"..."

"I’ll go wake up the kids. We have an appointment with the doctor today for Baobei’s checkup." Gu Qingxin turned and fled from the kitchen.

Lin Yin looked at her evasive manner and shook her head helplessly...
