Mr. President! The man who usually wears a suit and is always calm and serious, is now sitting in front of him wearing Doraemon cartoon pajamas.
"I should really take a picture and post it online for you. Everyone will be shocked." Xia Xingchen laughed happily and took out his phone. Although his face was as cold as usual, he looked much younger. Like he was in his early twenties.
Although his face was as cold as usual, he looked much younger, like he was just in his early twenties.
Xia Xingchen took a photo and put it in her phone. Such a private photo could not be posted on the Internet.
She looked at her phone, then at the man beside her. She had to admit that he was not only good-looking, but also very photogenic, impeccable.
Moreover, even if it was a set of pajamas bought from a stall for only one or two hundred yuan, when worn on him now, it felt... well, it looked a lot more expensive.
It is often said that clothes make the man, but now, she deeply feels that the saying that clothes make the man is also very reasonable. But who can see through it
Xia Xingchen was very happy and secretly saved the photo. She originally thought that he would definitely let her delete such embarrassing photos, but when she turned around, she found that his attention was not on her phone at all, but on the TV in front of him.
On TV, he was watching people's livelihood news.
This is a small program on the local TV station, and Bai Yeqing occasionally watches it when he is free.
Seeing him so absorbed in his gaze, she couldn't help but look in his direction. The news was broadcasting some new and interesting things. At this moment, it was about a pair of cousins who fell in love with each other, but after encountering strong opposition from their parents, they eloped regardless of everything.
In fact, news of elopement is often seen, but it is rare for cousins to develop feelings for each other.
Moreover, she never expected that Bai Yeqing would be interested in such news about trivial family disputes.
"Is it beautiful? You look so engrossed in it." Xia Xingchen asked him.
He glanced at her sideways, his eyes deep, and didn't say anything immediately, but just reached out and suddenly held her hand. Xia Xingchen didn't know what he was thinking at the moment, but seeing his slender five fingers, with distinct joints, holding her hand tightly, she felt satisfied.
Subconsciously, I bent my fingers and interlocked them with his.
"If it were you, what would you do?" he suddenly asked.
Xia Xingchen was stunned for a moment. His incoherent question confused her. "What do you mean if it was me?"
Bai Yeqing nodded and pointed at the TV, looking at her steadily, "Will you persist or give up?"
"You mean, if I fall in love with my cousin..." Xia Xingchen thought this assumption was particularly funny.
His eyes darkened, "Not my cousin, but my cousin."
"But I don't have a cousin."
“What if!”
Xia Xingchen thought about it seriously, and then gave up, "I really can't make such an assumption. Now, all I can think of is..."
She almost blurted out the word "you", but her reserve stopped her in time.
Bai Yeqing asked: "What do you want?"
Xia Xingchen subconsciously looked at her son beside her. Xia Dabai stared at her with a pair of innocent and curious eyes. She was so embarrassed that her face almost turned red. Naturally, she couldn't say anything.
"I don't want to chat with you anymore. You guys watch TV. I'm going to take a shower." She said, pushing Bai Yeqing away and leaving. He grabbed her wrist with his big hand, pulled her back, and stared into her eyes with unprecedented seriousness, "Xingchen, if, I mean if..."
He emphasized.
After a pause, he continued: "If we were in a relationship like theirs, cousins or cousins, what would you choose!"
She didn't answer immediately. She just frowned slightly and looked at him inquiringly, "Why do you ask?"
Bai Yeqing seemed to feel that his questioning was meaningless, and finally, he let her go in dismay, "Forget it, I was just asking casually. Go take a shower."
After saying that, his big hand slowly slipped from her wrist. However, the moment his fingertips completely left her, she grabbed his index finger. She looked at him with clear eyes, "Do you ask this because you still don't have confidence in me?"
Bai Yeqing didn't say anything.
Xia Xingchen suddenly leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. While he was stunned, she leaned over and whispered in his ear: "As long as you don't give up, no matter what the result is, I will not give up."
The voice was soft, but firm.
Bai Yeqing's heart was slightly moved, and there were ripples in his eyes, with a little more warmth. Xia Xingchen then let go of his hand, stood up, and looked down at him, "I'm going to take a shower."
He hummed, still thinking about what she had just said.
Xia Dabai suddenly asked crisply: "My cousin can marry my cousin, so... when my aunt has a daughter, I can marry her daughter?"
"No." Bai Xingchen spoke immediately, pinching Xia Dabai's tender little face as a warning, "No matter how pretty my aunt's daughter is, you are not allowed to covet her."
Xia Dabai pouted, "Why?"
"If you are related by blood, you cannot get married. This is against common sense."
"What is Chang Lun?"
"You will understand when you grow up."
"Okay then. Whatever Dabao says is what I'll listen to!"
The two, one big and one small, talked with great interest. Neither of them noticed that someone beside them was looking increasingly cool.
As long as he doesn't give up, she won't either.
But what if she really wanted to go against the will of the world and challenge the moral code? Would she still be so resolute
… … … … …
The next day.
Sunday.
Two adults and one child, returning to Kyoto together.
Along the way, Bai Yeqing drove the car himself, while Xia Xingchen sat in the passenger seat. Xia Dabai sat in the child's chair at the back and fell asleep as soon as he got in the car.
The 7-hour drive was indeed tiring.
Bai Yeqing glanced at the woman beside him and said, "Get some sleep. It will be here soon."
Xia Xingchen shook her head. "I'm here to talk to you because I'm afraid you might fall asleep while driving alone."
Bai Yeqing reached out and held her hand tightly in his. Xia Xingchen was bored, so she pinched his fingertips and played with them.
He would occasionally glance at her, and his eyes would meet hers. They smiled at each other, and all kinds of sweet feelings were rippling in their hearts.
Xia Xingchen said: "I almost forgot to ask you, why did you go to such lengths to send me a car? Do you feel it's inappropriate for me to ride your car to work?"
Bai Yeqing glanced at her and said, "Sooner or later, I will tell everyone that you are my wife. What's inappropriate about that?"
The word "wife" made her eyebrows curved involuntarily.
