Chapter 1175: The Agony of Gain and Loss

Qiao Duo'er rubbed the heads of the two children, her eyes brimming with laughter.

It was a good thing she had given birth to twins. After she and Tan Zhenghong were gone a hundred years from now, they would have each other for support.

No, that day was still far away. Why borrow trouble from the future?

Before long, the medicine took effect, and the children slipped back into sleep.

Watching the quiet, sweet resting faces of the children, Tan Zhenghong and Duo'er's hearts finally settled back down, and a strong sense of hunger followed.

Tan Zhenghong first ladled a bowl of chicken soup for Duo'er. Since she had been kidnapped by Li Mu'er, she hadn't had a bite to eat, and starting with soup would prevent stomach injury.

Qiao Duo'er gladly accepted it, but after two sips, she set the spoon down.

It was because Tan Zhenghong, burdened with heavy thoughts yet feigning indifference, was something she could not ignore.
