Xia Xingchen pinched one, tasted it, and said thank you. It tasted very sweet.
The girl skipped out, Xia Xingchen also stood up and went out to get some fresh air, and Dadong followed her out, carrying the fruit.
"I heard that there were guests at your house yesterday." Dadong asked her.
Thinking of last night's "guest", Xia Xingchen's eyes darkened. He should have gotten up by now, right
"Xingchen?" Not hearing any answer, Dadong called again.
Xia Xingchen came back to his senses and nodded, "Yes, yes, there are guests."
"He's Dabai's biological father, right? I heard that he's coming to take Dabai back." Dadong glanced at Xia Xingchen's face and asked, "What about you? Will you go back with him?"
Dadong and Xia Xingchen played together when they were young, so they were old friends and were somewhat reluctant to part again.
After all, once you leave, I’m afraid we won’t see each other again.
Xia Xingchen also felt sad.
But just shook his head, "I won't go with him..."
"If you don't come with me, do you want to live here forever? Maybe you can get married, have kids, and live here forever?" Before she could finish her words, a sad voice suddenly interrupted her.
From the tone he spoke, you could tell he was very unhappy and aggressive.
Xia Xingchen turned around and saw a familiar figure standing in someone's yard. He was wearing a black windbreaker, standing against the wind, and the cold wind blew up a corner of the windbreaker. He was wearing a mask, revealing only his eyes, but even so, his eyes were sharp when he looked at Dadong, which frightened Dadong. He looked at him, then at Xia Xingchen, and asked hesitantly, "Is he... Dabai's father?"
Did he do something wrong? Why was he staring at him like that? It was as if he was going to snatch his son and his woman from him.
Xia Xingchen felt embarrassed. He didn't go back to Dadong, but walked towards Bai Yeqing. He walked into someone else's house so openly and stared at others with such a fierce look. How could he be right
Moreover, the gossipy eyes of the neighbors outside came over again. She hoped that no sharp-eyed person could tell what he looked like under the mask. Otherwise, it would be a big deal.
"Why are you here?" Xia Xingchen stood in front of him and asked him. His eyes were still on Dadong, staring at him eagerly, making Dadong's scalp tingle.
She felt very sorry for Dadong and raised her hand to block his eyes. He lowered his head, stared at her seriously, and reached out to hold her hand in his palm.
Then, without saying a word, he took her hand and walked out.
"Bai... let me go." Xia Xingchen wanted to call out 'Bai Yeqing', but then he remembered the neighbors around him and quickly stopped talking.
I lowered my head and looked at the two people holding hands, my heart was filled with emotion.
She was always afraid of cold weather, and her hands were already cold in this weather. His palm held her fingertips, and the warmth passed to her, making her feel much warmer. The next moment, he covered her entire hand in his broad palm.
Xia Xingchen was dragged outside by him, and she stared at his broad back in a trance. When she was with Song Weiyi... would he also hold her hand like this
She couldn't help but think of the romantic scene of him and Song Weiyi holding hands on TV that day. Her heart ached as if it was being cut by a knife. She exerted force and suddenly pulled her hand away from his palm.
Bai Yeqing lowered his head and looked at his empty palm. He seemed quite dissatisfied with her struggle and turned back to stare at her.
Xia Xingchen felt uncomfortable being stared at, and now they had just left Dadong's house, and the neighbors were still looking at them. This made her feel headache, but she was helpless. She couldn't quarrel with him here.
"You go back. I'm going to the market to buy vegetables now." Xia Xingchen said and walked towards the market without paying any attention to him.
I didn't look back, but I could hear footsteps. He was following me again. Recently, he just got married. Is he free
"Xingchen, the kid's father is so handsome!" On the way, I met neighbors and greeted them warmly.
"..." Xia Xingchen just smiled and said nothing. It was amazing that he still looked handsome even with the mask covering his entire face. Bai Yeqing did not know whether he was happy or angry when he heard such compliments. He nodded slightly, saying thank you to the other party.
"Xingchen, what's the name of the child's father? You haven't even introduced him to us."
When she was about to blurt out the three words 'Bai Yeqing', she paused, remembered something, and introduced him enthusiastically: "His last name is Bai, Dabai and I call him 'Xiaobai'. You can call him 'Xiaobai' too."
She called it "Xiaobai" one by one, and each time she bit the word "Xiaobai" she did it hard, which seemed to have a special meaning!
"Xia Xingchen!" He glared at her. Others might not understand, but he understood that this woman was teasing a puppy!
"What's wrong, Xiaobai?" Xia Xingchen pretended not to understand his emotions and smiled sweetly, "Don't you like people calling you 'Xiaobai'?"
"Hello, Xiaobai. He's easy to remember and seems friendly." The neighbor responded enthusiastically.
Bai Yeqing looked extremely unhappy, and he pulled Xia Xingchen away. The neighbors were left there, talking to each other and discussing someone.
… … … …
Xia Xingchen broke away from Bai Yeqing and walked towards the vegetable market. Bai Yeqing followed her. To be honest, his 188cm height and unique temperament already attracted 100% of the attention in this remote town. Now with the cool mask, the attention rate went straight to 300%.
Xia Xingchen occasionally looked up at him and found that although he was a germaphobe and used to a pampered life, at this moment he was very interested in the lives of ordinary people. It was as if he was seriously experiencing the lives of the people. He did not show any impatience or dislike for this environment. Instead, he looked thoughtful from time to time.
Bai Yeqing looks charming like this.
Xia Xingchen took a look, but was afraid that he would not be able to look longer, so he did not dare to stay and quickly turned his eyes away, his sight fell on a bag of Chinese cabbage, and asked him casually, "You said last night that you had something to tell me this morning. What did you want to tell me?"
Bai Yeqing glanced at her and asked instead of answering, "Where's your phone?"
"In my pocket."
"There's no internet on the computer here, so you've never checked my news on your phone?"
Xia Xingchen paused for a moment while picking the vegetables, and then said as if she didn't care: "Do you want me to see the news about your wedding? I have seen it. However, I am very busy here and don't have time to read it carefully."
Could it be that he wanted her to see every detail of his happiness
That nonchalant tone made Bai Yeqing very angry.
