Without saying anything else, she swiped the card to open the door and walked out. Before the door was completely closed, she silently handed the room card in her hand in.
So, what she meant was that from now on, between them, you are you and I am me, and we no longer owe each other anything
Bai Yeqing's expression became increasingly cold, and he stared at the door, as if he wanted to stare through it.
After a long time, he threw away the napkin in his hand and stood up.
Leng Fei and his group were silent, not daring to say a word. The atmosphere in the room was so depressing that it was hard to breathe.
… … … … …
Xia Xingchen took a car back to her rental house. On the way, she passed a pharmacy and asked the driver to stop the car.
She bought birth control pills and swallowed them with water. If anything happened again, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to bear it. Although Dabai was a surprise, it was also a shock before. She didn't want to endure the same criticism again.
After taking the medicine, he walked silently towards the small rental house.
The progress of the project in her small rental house was very fast. She only stayed at Chi Weiyang's place for a few days, and the work here was already completed. She took the key and opened the door. The place where she lived was still the same as before, but the other side was empty, with no furniture or anything.
She looked at it in a daze, and felt that it was exactly the same as her current mood.
Hollow.
It felt hollow and uncomfortable. It was as if there was a hole in my heart. The wind blew through, making a whirring sound, and it was so cold that it made me shiver.
My eyes are filled with unbearable soreness.
She shook her head, forcing herself to put aside all her emotions, and began to pack her luggage silently. Her own luggage and her children's luggage. At the end of the packing, the man's windbreaker was still hanging on the hanger.
She had sent it for dry cleaning, and she can still smell the fresh scent.
She couldn't help but think of the night when he gave her this dress, when he and she kissed passionately in the dark... That night, she clearly heard the sound of each other's heartbeats...
Unable to bear thinking about it any more, she took the clothes off, removed the dust bag outside, folded it carefully, and put it in her bag. She didn't know if she would have the chance to return the clothes to him in the future.
… … … …
I packed my things, locked the door, and carried my luggage to the building opposite.
Chi Weiyang was having breakfast with Xia Dabai. He opened the door, saw her, and quickly let her in.
"Have you eaten?" Chi Weiyang asked.
"not yet."
"Please sit down. I'll get you a bowl." Chi Weiyang walked into the kitchen.
"Dabao." Xia Dabai took a bite of the steamed bun and turned to look at her. After looking at her for a while, his eyebrows knitted together, looking a little unhappy, "Dabao, you look so unhappy, did Xiaobai bully you again?"
"No, he didn't bully me, and I'm not unhappy." Xia Xingchen rubbed his little head.
"Really?" Xia Dabai was half-believing and half-doubting. The next moment, as if he saw something, he put down the chopsticks in his hand and his expression suddenly became serious, "Dabao, did Xiaobai beat you?"
"Huh?" What and what? Xia Xingchen was confused.
Xia Dabai snorted, his legs swung, and he slid down from the high chair, rushing out angrily, "I'm going to settle accounts with Xiaobai! It's ok for him to beat me, but how could he beat you, Dabao?"
Xia Xingchen didn't understand why, so she hurried to follow. Chi Weiyang heard the sound, came out holding the bowl, and asked, "What's going on?"
"I haven't figured it out yet." Xia Xingchen trotted over and hugged Xia Dabai, "Don't rush out. Xiaobai really didn't bully me."
"You're lying! You said you didn't bully you!" Xia Dabai's mouth flattened, as if he felt sorry for her, and his voice was already crying, "Look, you're injured..."
The little finger pointed at Xia Xingchen's neck. Chi Weiyang also looked in the direction of the child's finger, and at one glance, he burst out laughing.
Looking at Xia Xingchen again, her face was already red.
She was wearing a turtleneck sweater today, which could have easily covered up the ambiguous traces. However, Xia Dabai was very sharp-eyed, and she didn't expect that he would see it at the first sight.
"Godmother, what are you laughing at?" Xia Dabai still frowned seriously.
Chi Weiyang went over, stretched out his hand and carried him to his original position, "Okay, don't be angry, your father didn't bully Xingchen."
"Why aren't you bullying me? Just look for yourself."
Chi Weiyang glanced at Xia Xingchen with amusement, which made her want to find a hole to crawl into.
"Godmother saw it all. That's not a wound, it's a mosquito bite."
"Bite by mosquitoes?" Xia Dabai tilted his head, thought for a moment, and immediately said, "You're lying. How can there be mosquitoes in this season?"
"Yes! How could there be none? It's just a very big mutant mosquito! And it's a male!" Chi Weiyang coaxed Xia Dabai, who was very difficult to coax. "You are still young now, and you won't understand even if I tell you. Later, when you grow up and have a girlfriend, you will know that this kind of mosquito bite is not annoying at all, but very sweet."
"..." Xia Xingchen's lips twitched. What is going on
As expected, Xia Dabai asked again: "What does a mosquito bite have to do with having a girlfriend? Why do you have to know after you have a girlfriend? Why is it sweet?"
Chi Weiyang was not tired of answering the question patiently, "Because, when you get a girlfriend, you will also mutate into that kind of mosquito!"
“…” It’s getting more and more outrageous.
No matter how smart Xia Dabai was, he was completely confused. He wanted to ask, but he didn't know where to start. Xia Xingchen joined their conversation in time and said, "Stop chatting, eat first."
… … … …
For the press conference at 2pm, Xia Xingchen booked a train ticket for 1:15pm. At 1pm, she took her child to the high-speed railway station.
"Dabao, we're going to be gone for such a long time, and I haven't said goodbye to Xiaobai yet~" Xia Dabai could not stop thinking about his 'Xiaobai'.
Xia Xingchen felt sad. She held him in her arms and said, "Xiaobai is very busy now, so he definitely doesn't have time to answer your call. I'll let you talk to him after we get there, okay?"
There was a press conference at 2 o'clock, and he couldn't possibly get away at this time. Xia Xingchen didn't want to waste even a second of his time.
Xia Dabai thought about it seriously and nodded, "Okay then. When we arrive, it will definitely be late. Xiaobai will definitely be free to answer our call by then!"
At this moment, Xia Xingchen's cell phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was the same number again. It was Song Weiyi calling.
After considering it for a while, she picked up the phone. Song Weiyi asked, "Where are you now? You should know that the press conference is only a few dozen minutes away!"
