Chi Weiyang couldn't help laughing and nodded, "If you go there tonight, it will definitely be more than 1,000 watts, and you might really be thrown to the side of the road by your dad."
Xia Xingchen nudged her with her elbow and said, "Stop teasing him." Then she turned to the child and said, "Don't listen to your godmother. Go change your shoes."
"Okay then. If Xiaobai really makes me sleep on the street today, godmother, you must go and save me~" Xia Dabai said as he obediently went to the door to change into his clean sneakers. Chi Weiyang squatted down to help him tie his shoelaces, "Kiss godmother, and godmother will definitely rush to save you as soon as possible."
Xia Da held her pretty face with his white and tender little hands and kissed her hard, very loudly.
Xia Xingchen smiled at the child's innocent smile, holding back the bitterness in her heart, and went back to the room to pack his schoolbag. When she stuffed his textbooks into the schoolbag, a picture book fell to the ground and spread out.
In the picture book, the strokes were clumsily drawn into an ugly big head. Although the child really had no talent for drawing... well, he probably had no talent, but it was obvious that he had put a lot of effort into the drawing.
There was also a line of words written crookedly in pencil below.
kuku's little white.
He was not very good at writing characters with complicated strokes. After he scribbled and corrected the character "酷", he simply replaced it with pinyin.
Xia Xingchen looked at him, smiled bitterly, and felt mixed emotions.
When he and Dabai were dependent on each other, in his picture album, besides himself, there was only her. In his small and simple world, there was only her. Now, Bai Yeqing appeared, and this man satisfied all his admiration and fantasy about his father. Therefore, he deeply loved this man and was attached to him. The child's longing for him in the past few days clearly showed this point.
She should feel relieved. However, she also felt unspeakable loss and bitterness. If he married Song Weiyi, what would happen to the child
"Why are you still in a daze?" Chi Weiyang came in, "My son is waiting outside impatiently."
Xia Xingchen came back to his senses, put away his emotions, and put the sketchbook into his bag, "Right away."
… … … …
When she went downstairs with the child, someone was waiting downstairs. She carried the child upstairs.
Along the way, Xia Dabai was very happy, "Dabao, I thought Xiaobai didn't want us anymore!"
Arranging him to live outside was indeed an unprecedented move.
The child's words sounded careless, but they were because he was really insecure. Although he was young, his heart was delicate and sensitive. He knew very well that their family of three was different from other families. Maybe one day when he opened his eyes, he would find that either his father or his mother would be missing from his life.
Xia Xingchen recalled her childhood, when her parents separated at the age of eight. She felt lost and lonely. It was as if she had been abandoned by the whole world.
My heart was twisted and hurt. I touched the back of his head and said in a casual tone, "Dad loves you so much, so no matter what happens, he will never abandon you."
"Xiaobai also likes you, Dabao, so no matter what happens, Xiaobai will not abandon you, right?"
Xia Xingchen was stunned.
The innocent and expectant look in her child's eyes made her feel guilty. She wanted to give him a complete family, but she couldn't afford it.
Trying hard to dispel the hardship in her heart, she smiled and said half-seriously and half-jokingly: "Well, if Dad and Mom are not together now, and Dad wants to marry another aunt, do you want to be with Dad or with Mom?"
The innocent smile on Xia Dabai's face suddenly faded. His childish eyes, which showed a maturity that was different from his age, stared at her closely, "Is Xiaobai really going to marry another aunt?"
His expression was somewhat hurt.
Xia Xingchen couldn't bear it any longer, so he let out a breath and said, "... I was just talking nonsense, teasing you."
"It's not fun at all." Xia Dabai pursed his lips unhappily. The next moment, he seemed to remember something and smiled again. "Xiaobai promised me that he would not find a stepmother for me. So, I believe him! From now on, I want him to marry you, Dabao."
"..." Xia Xingchen was speechless, and only cast his gaze out the window. There was a slight bitterness in his heart.
… … … … …
When the adult and child arrived at the hotel, Bai Yeqing had already taken a shower and was drinking on the terrace in a black bathrobe.
"Xiaobai." Xia Dabai called out in a crisp voice as soon as he entered.
Bai Yeqing turned around and saw the two of them. A tenderness flashed across his eyes that he himself had not even noticed. His eyes passed from the child to her behind him. He nodded and said, "Let's go eat."
"Have you eaten?" Xia Xingchen took off the boy's coat and hung it on the hanger. He had a band-aid on his face, which made him look funny and childish. However, even so, it was hard to hide his noble and handsome appearance.
"You left without saying a word. Do you want me to wait for you?" Bai Yeqing was obviously unhappy. He just raised his eyelids and took a glance.
Xia Xingchen didn't respond.
Bai Yeqing then looked at the child and asked, "Have you eaten?"
Xia Dabai made two "tsk tsk" sounds and complained, "My godmother said I was a big light bulb, and it turned out to be true. Xiaobai, you only have Dabao in your eyes."
Xia Xingchen felt Bai Yeqing's gaze coming towards her, and she subconsciously looked over. When their eyes met, the man's expression was deep. She was embarrassed, and quickly looked away, pinching the child's tender earlobe, "I told you not to listen to your godmother's nonsense."
"That's nonsense, Xiaobai is really just looking at you."
"Yeah, she is the only one in my eyes." Bai Yeqing held the child in one hand, looked at Xia Xingchen meaningfully, and when he saw her shy look, he raised his lips and looked at Xia Dabai, "Who told you that you are not a woman? It is normal for a man to look at a woman."
"Well, Xiaobai, do you think our Dabao is very cute?" Although he complained, the little guy was in a good mood, with his eyes shining brightly.
The more Xiaobai likes their Dabao, the closer you are to a happy and fulfilling life for their family of three!
Xia Dabai sincerely felt as if he had seen spring, and his heart was filled with relief!
"Probably... just average." The man raised his eyebrows and glanced at the woman's slender figure, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes. "But after looking at her for a long time, I still think she's pretty good-looking."
"I also think our Dabao is very good-looking! She has a small face, big eyes, and a great figure. Whoever marries her will be blessed~"
Xia Dabai began to promote the product seriously, using indirect methods.
Bai Yeqing focused on the child's words "she still has such a good figure" and couldn't help but think of the passionate scene of the two of them in the hall just now.
