Bai Yeqing glanced at the woman beside him. She also glanced at him, her clear eyes flickered with sparkling light, and she smiled at him with curved lips. When he saw her charming look, he felt his heart surge.
marry…
There is nothing better than becoming a real family.
Before the two of them had time to speak, Xia Dabai asked, "Aunt, what are you talking about?"
Bai Suye smiled and touched his little face, "Children don't understand adult matters."
"We are already discussing this matter." Bai Yeqing replied.
"It's not the right time to get married now." Bai Suye said, "It wasn't long since your wedding with Song Weiyi, and the incident has not yet faded from the public's view. It's not appropriate for you to get involved in any gossip now. So, if you really want to get married, it will have to be at least next year. However, it's okay to discuss it earlier."
Xia Xingchen did not respond. Talking about marriage with his family, she felt a little unreal, as if it was not real. However, she felt inexplicably sweet in her heart.
Bai Yeqing said "hmm", he also considered this aspect. He handed the child to Xia Xingchen, straightened his face, and asked Bai Suye, "I heard that you are very close to Ye Xiao now."
When that person was mentioned, the smile on Bai Suye's face froze.
However, such abnormality was only a moment. She sat down on the sofa, peeled a lollipop, handed it to Xia Dabai, and said casually: "Don't you know it very well? I have been keeping an eye on him to prevent him from getting too close to Song Guoyao."
Bai Yeqing's eyes slid down slightly to her neck. Under the scarf, there was a clear red mark. He knew what was going on.
"Didn't you say last time that you wanted me to meet Young Master Yun? When are you going to take me to meet him?" Bai Yeqing asked inconspicuously.
"Aren't you very busy now? You're busy with your uncle's affairs, and in a few days you'll be going to the United Nations. When you come back from the United Nations, I'll take you to see him."
“Have you made any progress?”
Bai Suye hesitated for a moment, as if thinking. After a while, she raised her head and said, "I didn't plan to develop a relationship with him, but now I have changed my mind."
It was a gentle word, but the voice was a little vague, mixed with a lot of sadness.
Even Xia Xingchen, who was teasing the child nearby, noticed it and couldn't help but look up at Bai Suyue.
Only then did he realize that Bai Suye seemed a little different today than usual. Usually, she was heroic, confident, elegant, and charming, but today, she seemed much more haggard, and seemed to be worried.
Bai Yeqing nodded slightly, remained silent, and finally said nothing. When it comes to matters of the heart, no one else can interfere, only one's own heart knows it best. Especially for a rational woman like Su Ye, she must know exactly what she is doing.
… … … … … …
On the other side, the old lady called the police and repeatedly told them to come over right after dinner. After hanging up, she didn't go directly to the hall, but just poked her head in the side hall to look in the direction of the hall. On the side, the old man couldn't help but stretch his neck to look over there.
The old lady turned her head to look at him, and he immediately straightened up and drank his tea seriously.
Aunt Lin said, "Madam, why don't you go to the living room and sit with Miss Xia for a while?"
"Let's take a look at the situation first."
The old lady just stared at Xia Xingchen. Seeing her interacting with the child, she found her pretty pleasing to the eye.
Aunt Lin said, "This Miss Xia is not that woman's daughter. It's quite comfortable to see this."
"Hmm!" The old lady nodded, agreeing with Aunt Lin, "She has a pretty face. She has a good figure, too. She's not as skinny as a bamboo pole. Even though she gave birth to Dabai, she's kept it pretty well."
"You're young. This child was born when he was young, so he recovered quickly."
"His every move was neither hurried nor slow; neither impetuous nor rash." The old lady continued to comment.
"I can tell she doesn't have any bad habits. I've looked at her hands carefully, they're long and pretty, so she definitely doesn't smoke." Aunt Lin continued, "I just saw her packing things, and she looked very professional. It seems like she's very skilled at doing housework."
"And what's more - her blood type matches that of our Ye Qing, which is the most important thing!" The old lady said, "In the future, if our family wants grandchildren, we have to rely on her alone. Now our Bai family only has Ye Qing to carry on the family, so Miss Xia is really the lucky star of our Bai family."
Aunt Lin also nodded, "In fact, I have always thought so. She gave birth to Young Master Sun, so she is a hero to the Bai family."
The old man was so upset when he heard this that the corners of his lips twitched. He held his cane and knocked it on the ground, "You two, do you still have any stance or ideas? Why are you sitting on the fence? You said she was bad, but you guys said so! Now that she's back, you're really good at flattering her!"
When the old man said this, the old lady coughed awkwardly and stiffened her neck, "Then I am not considering your Bai family? Oh, don't you want to have more children? I can give you another precious granddaughter, don't you want it?"
Originally, the old lady didn't want to marry someone like Li Lingyi.
But now her mother was not Li Lingyi, but the person she met in the hospital last time, so the old lady naturally had no reason to object.
The old man was speechless for a while after being asked this question. After a long silence, he said, "Anyway, I don't like women who can be bought with money! If you buy her to have a baby today, and someone gives her 10 million tomorrow, she will still give birth to a child!"
The old lady sneered, "Do you think 10 million fell from the sky? Who can give her 10 million and beg her to give birth to a child?"
"…" The old man was speechless, "Is this the point?! I mean, hypothetically! What if?!"
"Don't worry! If there was a chance, your son would be strangled to death in the cradle! Besides, you know how hard it is to earn 10 million, right? If I were her, and you gave me 10 million to give birth to a child, I would still do it!"
"You—" The old man was so angry that his face turned pale, "You are confusing right and wrong, and can't tell black from white. I'm too lazy to talk to you!"
"I don't want to talk to you either. She might have her own reasons! Besides, if she is wrong, it's you who made the mistake first! Who told you to give 10 million in exchange for a grandson? Oh, the girl agreed with you and gave birth to your precious grandson, but you turned around and burned your bridge? Old man, I tell you, this is not right. It's too rude!"
Instead, the old lady started to scold the old man, completely forgetting what she had said earlier.
Old Master Bai was so angry that he was puffing his beard and glaring, and he almost fainted with his hands on his chest.
