"What information?" Xia Xingchen was confused when asked, and couldn't figure out where his current unhappiness came from.
"Happy wedding, a happy marriage, and a baby soon!" He gritted his teeth, and every word was pronounced hard. Xia Xingchen couldn't help but find it funny. It was obviously twelve words full of blessings, but now it sounded like a curse when it came out of his mouth.
Still laughing!
He glared at her.
"I didn't send it." Xia Xingchen explained, "Your son sent it."
Thinking of Xia Dabai, she sighed, "He also thought you were married, and he has been losing his temper over this matter. It hurt his heart for a long time."
"I can see it. She is so angry early in the morning and looks like she needs a beating." Bai Yeqing paused and looked sideways at her profile with special meaning, "The only ones who are angry or sad are he?"
Xia Xingchen turned around and met his deep gaze, her heart skipping a beat.
The man's eyes seemed to be able to see through her emotions easily, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable. Don't look away and say nothing. In the pocket of the windbreaker, the man's hand tightened on hers, as if urging her to answer.
"Xingchen, you and your boyfriend have been out shopping for groceries all morning!" At this moment, he met an acquaintance coming across from him and greeted them warmly.
Xia Xingchen smiled and wanted to explain that he was not her "boyfriend" at all. However, looking at the intimate look of the two holding hands, if she really wasn't her boyfriend, others would still think she was casual, right
Turning to look at him, he seemed to be in a good mood, smiled and nodded, and responded to the other person's greeting politely.
It seems that he...has no intention of clarifying at all...
A subtle feeling flashed through Xia Xingchen's heart. In fact, even he was very curious, what kind of relationship between the two of them was now
"Dabao, Xiaobai!" While he was stunned, Xia Dabai's voice suddenly appeared. The two of them raised their heads in unison and saw Shen Min leading Xia Dabai towards them. Xia Xingchen was so thin-skinned that he almost immediately took his hand out of Bai Yeqing's hand and took a step to the side, keeping a little distance from him with a guilty conscience.
Bai Yeqing glared at her secretly, but didn't pull her anymore. He just stepped forward and greeted Shen Min.
"Why are you here?" he asked.
"Dabai has been waiting for you for a long time and there is no one there, and the second aunt is nowhere to be found, so she has to drag me out to look around." Shen Min replied. Bai Yeqing stared at his son angrily. As expected, this light bulb was shining brightly all the time. Everywhere!
However, Xia Dabai pretended not to see his father's eyes, and happily ran between the two of them, holding one of them with his little hands. While walking with high spirits, he said to every acquaintance on the road: "Uncle, this is my dad, you can just call him Xiaobai."
"Little sister, he is my father, his name is Xiaobai. He is here to take me and Dabao back!"
"Da Mao, I'm going back soon, my dad is here to pick me up!"
…
If one comes, he will say it, his tone full of pride and showoff. Seeing his bright expression, Xia Xingchen suddenly felt much more comfortable.
She quietly glanced at Bai Yeqing and saw that his eyes were also falling on the child, with a faint smile on his face and rubbing his little head with his big palm. Shen Min looked on and felt very pleased.
At noon, the family had lunch in the yard. Xia Xingchen was serving rice, and Xia Dabai was very happy setting out his chopsticks. Bai Yeqing stood aside and looked at the big one and the small one in front of him, feeling inexplicably very satisfied. Such a small place, quiet and quiet, with simple folk customs, no troubles and intrigues, is quite comfortable.
When she was serving the rice, her head was slightly lowered, and her row of long curly eyelashes was more clearly visible. Every time he fanned it, it was like a feather fan, fanning the tip of his heart, numbing, itching, and feeling very soft.
"Come over for dinner." She suddenly raised her head and called him. His eyes hadn't moved away, and they met each other. He didn't look like he was retreating at all. He looked straight, as if he wanted to look into her heart. She was stunned for a moment, feeling a little uncomfortable being looked at. She tightened her grip on the bowl and said in a lower voice, "Come and eat..."
Bai Yeqing walked over quietly, pulled up a chair and sat down. Because Shen Min hasn't come out yet, he naturally can't use chopsticks. Suddenly he put his arms around her slender waist and pulled her to stand beside his legs.
He is too bold!
Xia Xingchen was startled and subconsciously glanced at Xia Dabai. Fortunately, Xia Dabai was squatting on the ground playing with a small insect and didn't notice their little movements.
She curled her hands and pressed them on his shoulders, her voice was very soft, "Let go of me first, my mother will be out soon..."
While talking, he looked worriedly at the kitchen door from time to time. However, compared to her shyness, he was as thick-skinned as ever.
Reluctant to let go, he put his big palm on her waist and looked up at her, "When do you plan to go back?"
Even through the layers of thick clothes, she could still vaguely feel the heat in his palms. The man's eyes were bottomless, and the noon sun shone into his eyes from above, and there seemed to be many complicated emotions there. Xia Xingchen looked down and felt his heartbeat was unusually fast.
She shook her head and whispered: "At least I have to celebrate my mother's birthday."
"Yeah." Under reasonable circumstances, Bai Yeqing naturally wouldn't force it, and just said: "On that day, I will come to pick you up."
"So, are you leaving today?" Xia Xingchen asked, without even noticing the reluctance in his tone. Bai Yeqing raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he thought her question was useful. There was a faint smile on the corner of his lips, "Didn't you keep chasing me away since I came here yesterday, and now you can't bear to part with it?"
There was teasing in his tone. Xia Xingchen was thin-skinned and refused to admit it, "I was just asking casually. I know you are very busy..."
Even though he is so busy, he still comes here in person. Xia Xingchen couldn't bear to think about how tired he looked last night.
"Shall we drive back? Will Lengfa come to pick you up?"
"Take the high-speed train." Because it is a secret itinerary, it must not be a laborious task.
"Then... when will you leave?"
Bai Yeqing looked at the time on his wrist and said, "There are still three hours."
Xia Xingchen nodded, "If such a big thing happened suddenly, you must go back and deal with it. They installed a bug in your office. Did it have a big impact on you...?"
"The two of them are having a big impact now. People from their two parties are already very anxious. It's a blessing in disguise for us."
Xia Xingchen felt relieved now.
Shen Min came out of the kitchen at this moment. When Xia Xingchen heard the movement, she lowered her head to look at him and quickly removed her hands from his shoulders. He didn't bother her, and quietly slid his hands from her waist.
