A Star Reborn: The Queen’s Return Chapter 987 - The Queen’s Bliss

Chapter 987: The Queen’s Bliss
He had not told his sister about Su Tang’s death. As such, Xia Ling was unaware.
It was autumn, she and Li Lei were discussing moving back to the headquarters. They had already settled on a date during their honeymoon holiday, but due to the various accidents that had occurred following that, they were unable to commence act upon it.
Li Lei smiled and said, “Sure, I’ll listen to you.”
The two children were elated. Returning to the headquarters meant that they would have even more partners to play with, and even bigger space to mess around in. It was so exciting for them. Especially for Li Rui. This new expedition had taken his mind off his sorrow over Su Tang. Excited, he had dragged Shaohui to pack their luggage and plan the layout of their new room.
Even Xia Ling was drawn into their passion. She too started packing.
The family portrait on the dining room’s wall was definitely to be packed, so was the pot of flowers by the sofa that everyone had watched grow. Other things that needed to be packed included the flower vase that Xia Ling had purchased from an auction, Er Mao’s favorite pillow, and Hairball’s catnip…
Each of these items brought back fond memories.
Xia Ling had moved house numerous times. She had been very poor in the past and had only had several old dirty furniture that she had thrown away when moving. After she had earned a bit of money, a house was just a shelter without temperature to her. So every time she had moved she would only bring a few of her clothes and accessories. The rest of her stuff, she would repurchase.
But this time it was different. This villa held the family’s wonderful memories.
She spent a very long time packing, choosing numerous items that she could not bear to part with to be moved into the new house. The other items remained where they were. She instructed the left-behind maids to clean them properly to prepare for when they moved back to the country to stay.
Finally, it was the moving day.
The whole family brought along Old Master Li and boarded the private plane.
Once on the plane, Xia Ling felt a little uncomfortable. Her head was giddy and her chest felt tight.
She forced herself to chat with Li Lei and the rest for a while before she could not endure it any longer. She rested her head on the man’s strong shoulders. “Don’t move, let me sleep for a while,” she said softly.
Li Lei did not think too much about it. He thought she was just tired from moving house. He requested a blanket from a maid and cuddled her into it gently, taking care of her before she fell into a deep sleep. Xia Ling sept for a few hours and only woke up once to eat some fruits. She still felt terrible and wanted to puke.
It was only then that Li Lei felt something was wrong. He placed his hand on her forehead and asked, “Sick?”
Xia Ling shook her head feebly. “It’s nothing, it’s probably just that the plane’s engine is too noisy.”
Li Lei was assured. He chuckled and teased her. “I didn’t know you had airsickness.”
She rolled her eyes at him weakly. Her eyes were misty and beautiful. He kissed her affectionately before giving her a pair of anti-noise earplugs and cuddling her into a more comfortable position. She fell asleep once again.
She was asleep until they reached.
He waited until the plane had stopped completely before he woke her. “Wake up, sleepyhead. We’re here.”
She opened her eyes groggily. Her head was still a little giddy. She turned her head to stare outside the window. It was indeed the landing strip of the golden sand beach. Towering coconut trees swayed in the wind as a form of welcome. The two children were extremely excited. Once the plane door was opened, they cheered and rushed down with the bodyguards to play.
Li Lei helped Xia Ling walk down slowly. “Be careful of your steps.”
“I’m not that weak,” she murmured unclearly. Before her voice even settled, she almost slipped in the air and her whole body fell to one side.
“Xiao Ling!” Li Lei held onto her immediately.
She did not even have time to speak before she felt her stomach churn and she vomited with a loud sound. Holding onto the lift’s handle, she vomited for a very long time. She had nothing in her stomach except some acid.
Weak all over, she frowned deeply and felt terrible.
Li Lei was extremely anxious and rushed her to the headquarters’ hospital immediately.
“Congratulations, Young Master.” After the examination, the doctor came out to tell Li Lei jubilantly. “Madam is five weeks pregnant. Both the baby and the mother are healthy.”
What… what?!
Li Lei stared at the doctor in disbelief. “Say that again?”
“I said, Madam is pregnant.” The doctor smiled. It was said that those who became fathers would become silly. Indeed, his own master was so happy he did not know what to do.
“Thank you, thank you, brother!” Li Lei’s eyes lit up. His smile spread across his whole face and he patted the doctor’s shoulder vigorously. Then, he rushed to the examination room to find Xia Ling.
Xia Ling was standing by the window. The bright sunlight shone onto her body and made her look warm and beautiful. She carried a hint of a smile on her face and was listening attentively to the doctor telling her about the precautions during pregnancy. Even though she had already heard all these from the two times she had been pregnant, it did not bother her to listen attentively again.
It was the doctor who first noticed Li Lei. He smiled in greeting. “Young Master.”
As Xia Ling turned around and saw him, her eyebrows relaxed and she became elated. “You’re here.”
Li Lei gave her a bear hug and was so excited he was repeating himself. “We have a baby again? That’s great, that’s great. It’s too great!”
She reached out to hug him around the waist. “Yes, we have another baby.” She leaned her face on his chest and a blissful smile opened on the petals of her beautiful lips. After facing so many hardships, happiness was finally here. This baby was the most timely gift from God.
“This time we’ll take good care of you and the baby. Both of you will be safe and sound.” He embraced the woman he loved and swore again. This time, there was nothing that could harm her.
Ten months later, she gave birth to a healthy and adorable baby girl. She was named Ying Luo.
Ying Luo meant “beautiful jade”. A precious treasure.
This child was the pearl in their palm, the precious baby that was the symbol of their love.
The whole family loved the child. Shaohui and Li Rui took on the responsibilities of protecting their sister voluntarily. They would come to play with her whenever they were free, elated to stare at her waving her tiny hands and feet about. Together, they made a pact to protect their sister for eternity.
Old Master Li also came to visit his great-granddaughter often and would bring lots of food and toys.
In past generations, the Li family had often given birth to men. It had been a few hundred years without a baby girl. Thus, Old Master was even more doting on his great-granddaughter. His affection for her exceeded even that for his great-grandson Shaohui. With the care for this girl, his relationship with Xia Ling also saw a turn. The whole family was getting along more and more cordially.
Finally, Old Master no longer had any biases against Xia Ling. He began to truly cherish his granddaughter-in-law.
And Xia Ling had already had all her dreams come true.
When she had nothing on her hands, she would plant trees and flowers and compose music.
She was already close to retirement. Yet, her fame as The Queen was still undefeated and unattainable to others. Every song she released would spread across the whole earth and her countless fans would go crazy over them.
However, although she was under the spotlight, she no longer cared about fame.
She only cared about her family, her sons and her daughter. In the long and beautiful months to follow, the family supported one another lovingly. This was the best way to live.
_These kinds of tiny moments of happiness are what bliss is called,_she thought.
This life, she would live well with her family.
