After returning home, Xia Xingchen called Yu Zenan again.
Yu Zenan was packing his luggage. When he saw it was her call, he quickly picked up the phone.
"What's the matter?"
"Yeah. I want to ask how your wife is doing. Has she been discharged from the hospital?" Xia Xingchen asked while pouring himself some water.
"Wait a moment." Yu Zenan closed the box and walked from the presidential suite to another room. Mrs. Lanting was making milk for him. He raised his cell phone to her and said, "It's Xingchen's call, asking about your condition."
When Mrs. Lanting heard that it was her who called, she smiled a little more. She quickly took the phone and said, "Ms. Xia is so thoughtful."
"Ma'am, you can just call me Xingchen. How are you now? Are you okay?"
"Don't worry about me, I'm fine now. I've been discharged from the hospital and will be returning to Country M tomorrow. I hope I didn't scare you that day?"
"I wasn't scared, but I was really worried. I'm glad you're okay now."
"I heard from Zenan that you also have type P blood? He said that you donated blood to me that day, and although it was not used in the end, I still want to thank you very much."
"Don't worry about it. From now on, you must remember to take good care of yourself in Country M. Just in case... I mean just in case, when you need blood, you must call me the first time. But I sincerely hope that such a time will never come."
Mrs. Lanting smiled, her heart full of relief and warmth, and couldn't help but sigh: "You are a caring girl, I really envy your parents."
Xia Xingchen remembered that she had been separated from her mother when she was 8 years old, and her heart was also sad. She just said: "Your daughter will definitely be very considerate."
"I really like you. If I am lucky enough to find a daughter someday, I will definitely let you be friends with her."
"Okay, then I'll wait for that day. I believe it will be found soon." Xia Xingchen thought, leaving aside the two people from the Yu family who are helping to look for it, even Bai Yeqing has agreed to put in some effort, so it should be found soon.
… …
Xia Xingchen wrapped herself in a blanket and leaned on the sofa to watch TV. Soon, she became confused and dazed. She curled herself up into a ball and squinted her eyes.
When I was half asleep and half awake, I took out my phone from under the pillow and took a look. It was already past 10 o'clock in the evening. He said he would come to see me in the evening, but it was so late, I was afraid he would not come.
She thought about it and decided not to call him. She was afraid of disturbing him. Whether he was still busy or had already gone to bed, it was not a good idea to call him so late.
I sighed while holding my phone, looking at the night outside, feeling a little empty inside.
She stood up, turned off the TV, folded the blanket, put it on the corner of the sofa, turned off the lights in the living room, and prepared to go back to her room to sleep.
At this moment, the phone rang. In the dark space, the phone screen emitted a faint light. She was dazed, and when she saw the word "Xiao Bai" on it, she suddenly sobered up a lot.
"Hello." She listened almost immediately, without even realizing that there was a strong sense of expectation in her tone.
"Asleep?" He could tell that her voice was drowsy. Xia Xingchen said 'hmm', "I was watching TV on the sofa just now and fell asleep for a while. What about you? Are you still busy?"
"get down."
"..." Xia Xingchen was stunned for a moment, and then almost immediately ran to the window in the room, "You are downstairs?"
Before she could respond, she saw a low-key black car parked downstairs. He probably didn't want people to know it was him, so he changed the car on purpose.
"Didn't you let Leng Fei and the others follow you?" she asked worriedly, grabbing the key and walking out the door.
"No." Although they can ensure safety, to be honest, they are still very troublesome in many cases.
"Wait for me, I'll be down soon." She said and hung up the phone. She hurriedly changed her shoes, locked the door, and ran downstairs. After getting out of the elevator, the cold wind rushed in and she shivered.
She left in such a hurry that she was in pajamas and didn't even have time to put on her coat. God knows, the temperature was only a few degrees at night.
Bai Yeqing got out of the car, frowned, put the clothes on her shoulders, and said sullenly, "Why don't you even wear a coat?"
"… I left too quickly." Xia Xingchen pulled his windbreaker tighter. For a moment, the air was filled with his scent, a very peaceful one. She looked up, "Why are you here so late?"
Bai Yeqing would never say that he was just obsessed and wanted to come and see her. He just leaned against the car and looked at her, "Come here."
Xia Xingchen took a step forward, and there was only one step between them. He stretched out his hand and pulled her closer. Her heart skipped a beat, and her body almost hit his chest. She barely managed to hold on to the car behind him with her hands, and finally managed to steady herself.
"What's wrong?" She asked softly, trying to make herself look calmer. She didn't know why, but being so close to him at night made her heart beat faster and faster.
"When do you plan to give up this house?" he asked.
"Ah?" Xia Xingchen was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and shook his head, "I don't plan to retreat again."
He frowned, obviously unhappy. Xia Xingchen said, "I have to have a place of my own. Besides... I think it's fine now."
She actually had her reasons. She had been able to live peacefully in the mansion before because she was truly open and honest, and she was alone, but now... it was different...
She didn't want to be completely dependent on a man, because if there was any disturbance in that kind of life, it would become a storm that she would find unbearable.
"What's good about it? What's good about it?" Bai Yeqing looked at her, paused, and then said, "Dabai really wants you to move back. You should know this very well."
She looked at his expression twice, as if trying to find out whether the child wanted him to move back or he wanted her to move back. Feeling uncomfortable with her look, Bai Yeqing deliberately said with a cold face, "What are you looking at?"
She smiled, "It doesn't matter. I've already made an agreement with Dabai that he will live in both places from now on. It doesn't really affect him that I live outside. On the contrary, it's more fun for him to travel between the two places."
His face was completely gloomy. The two of them were fine, and they had discussed everything well, but who had thought of him
"You came here so late tonight, weren't you just going to tell me about this?" Xia Xingchen glanced at the time. "Actually, this kind of thing can be discussed over the phone. You've been in meetings all day, and now it's already midnight when you're driving back to the Presidential Palace." It hurts to think about it.
Bai Yeqing felt that this woman was really unromantic and a little annoyed.
He glanced at her with his deep eyes, and couldn't hold back the feelings in his heart. He leaned down and suddenly kissed her lips.
