The Art of Pursuing: The Unyielding Ex-wife-Chapter 542: In the future, if I have a daughter, she can make you happy

"Yisen, could you come over and help me cut the fish?"

After posting on Weibo, Qin Munni gently asked Xu Yisen for his assistance.

He casually placed his phone on the bar and got up from the high stool in front of it, "Hmm, okay."

Xu Yisen walked over to the counter, and Qin Munni handed him an apron, which he put on before staring at the fish on the cutting board and asking, "How should I cut it?"

"Slice it."

"Hmm, okay."

The soft light cast a warm glow on them, making the two busy figures at the counter seem especially cozy under the illumination.

Once people reach a certain age, they start to fear loneliness and despise coming home to an empty, pitch-black house every time they open the door.

At such times, the desire to start a family becomes particularly strong.

In the three months after his divorce from Qin Munni, every time Xu Yisen came home from work and opened his door, he was overwhelmed by that empty feeling, inexplicably missing Qin Munni.

And now, he eagerly anticipated coming home from work every day, knowing there was a little woman waiting for him at home.

He also cherished the moments of cooking together in the kitchen with Qin Munni, reading together in the study, watching TV together in the living room, and... sleeping together in the bedroom.

...

December 23rd, the day before Christmas Eve.

Qin Munni and Xu Yisen got up, washed up, had breakfast, and then started packing. Shortly thereafter, they drove together to Purple Clouds Mountain.

After quickly packing his suitcase at home, Xu Yisen pushed it to Qin Munni’s door.

With her long hair down, Qin Munni looked helplessly at Xu Yisen standing outside the door and said, "Come in, I still need a little more time to get ready."

"Hmm." Xu Yisen nodded, walked into the house, leaving his suitcase in the entryway, and followed Qin Munni inside.

He hesitated for a moment, staring at her long, glossy hair cascading down her back, before suggesting, "Let me help you style your hair."

As he finished his sentence, he noticed Qin Munni’s footsteps slightly pause before she responded without turning around, "Better not."

Xu Yisen could easily sense the reluctance in her voice, understanding it was because the last time he braided her hair poorly, she was still a bit apprehensive.

So, he explained, "I’ve been learning how to style hair lately."

Qin Munni stepped lightly and gracefully up the stairs, her figure elegant and delicate as she faced away from Xu Yisen.

With a smile in her voice, she teasingly asked, "Do you plan to use me as your test subject again?"

"Practice makes perfect, so I can style your hair more often in the future."

"Please spare my hair."

"Why don’t we have a daughter one day, and I can play with her hair."

Qin Munni jokingly teased, "So I would carry a daughter for you just so you could play with her hair?"

"Not exactly, daughters are a mother’s treasure; having one could cheer you up."

His flattering words left Qin Munni in a mix of amusement and exasperation. She walked into the room, with Xu Yisen closely following her until she sat down before her vanity, and at that point, he stopped behind her.

Through the mirror, Qin Munni looked at the somewhat stubborn man standing behind her and laughed, "What, you really want to style my hair?"

Xu Yisen nodded, honestly replying, "Hmm, I do."
