"Did I put mustard in there?" Xia Xingchen asked himself, "Maybe my eyesight isn't very good, so I saw it wrong."
"You can't tell the difference between green and white. Your eyesight is not very good. This time when I go back, I will take you to the ophthalmologist. If it really doesn't work, I will perform a proper operation to correct your vision!"
"… "
Bai Yeqing put down his chopsticks, stood up and left. Of course he couldn't eat.
Xia Xingchen was just teasing him, and of course she wouldn't really let him starve. She quickly grabbed his hand and pushed her plate in front of him.
Bai Yeqing glanced at her.
“I guarantee there’s cheese in this.”
He then picked up his chopsticks again and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
“… I have a plate of it in the kitchen.”
“…” So, this little woman clearly wanted to make trouble for him!
… … … …
Mr. Xiaobai was angry, so he ignored her the whole evening.
night.
I was playing flying chess with my son, and I was so sleepy that I put away my things, patted Dabai's calf, and said, "It's time to go to bed."
Xia Dabai yawned and nodded his head.
She led Xia Dabai upstairs. Halfway there, she looked back at someone, only to see him still sitting on the sofa downstairs, flipping through a book, sipping red wine. He had no intention of going to sleep.
"Dabao, are you still angry with Xiaobai?" Xia Dabai asked, bringing her back to her senses.
She didn't answer, but just yawned. However, now it seems that... not only am I angry with him, but he is also angry with me~
Xia Dabai had been playing all day and was very sleepy. He lay on the bed and fell asleep in a short while. Xia Xingchen thought of the man in the hall, wondering if he was asleep.
In the middle of the night, she was thirsty from sleeping, so she came out of the room to pour herself some water. She was about to go to the kitchen in a daze. However, halfway through, she was stunned by the figure on the sofa.
He actually fell asleep on the sofa!
On the small round table next to her, there was a half-empty bottle of red wine. The TV was still playing a local program that she couldn't understand, and it was never turned off.
This guy... How come he fell asleep on the sofa like a child
Although the temperature here is high during the day, there is a big temperature difference between morning and night. He is not covered with anything, so he will definitely catch a cold if he continues to sleep like this.
Xia Xingchen put down the cup of water, squatted down, and patted his face.
"Ye Qing."
"Ye Qing?"
After calling her twice, he did not open his eyes, but just held her hand.
His palm was warm. He took her hand in his and rubbed the back of her hand with his thumb.
The small action was natural, but it made her feel warm.
Looking at his peaceful sleeping face, the corners of her lips curved slightly, "Wake up. There's a bed upstairs, why are you sleeping on the sofa?"
Maybe it was because the night was so quiet that her voice sounded as gentle as cotton wool.
He didn't know whether he heard it or not. He frowned and half opened his eyes. It seemed that the light in the room was too bright, so he raised his hand to block the light and woke up after a while.
He frowned, sat up, and pinched his right index finger and thumb between his eyebrows.
"Headache?"
Xia Xingchen squatted down and looked at him worriedly. His other hand was still holding her hand, not letting go.
At night, she seemed to have forgotten the quarrel between the two during the day. She looked worried when she saw him, and her tone was gentle.
Bai Yeqing glanced at her with a deeper gaze.
"Didn't you fall asleep a long time ago?" The man's voice was still hoarse because he was half asleep and half awake. It was extremely sexy.
"I'm thirsty, get up and drink some water."
Xia Xingchen pointed to his cup.
Bai Yeqing nodded slightly, relieved his sleepiness, picked up the cup, stood up and walked to the kitchen. After a while, he poured out some water, which was neither cold nor hot, just warm.
"Drink it." She handed the water to her.
Xia Xingchen took a sip, and the warm liquid made her feel warm in her heart. She looked up at him, "Did you have a headache from sleeping on the sofa?"
"Um."
"Then go upstairs and sleep."
Bai Yeqing didn't reply to her words. He just glanced at the cup in her hand and then at his watch. "Drink it quickly. It's getting late."
She nodded and drank the water in two gulps. As soon as she put down the cup, her body became lighter. The man's strong arms had already lifted her up.
Leaning on his chest, she could smell the mellow aroma of red wine on the man, mixed with his unique minty scent. Surrounding her like this, she felt at ease.
She did not struggle, but instinctively raised her hands and wrapped them around his neck.
The two of them had just entered the room and lay down on the bed when the cell phone suddenly rang.
In the quiet night, it seemed particularly abrupt. It was his cell phone.
Bai Yeqing frowned, stretched out his long arm, and picked up the phone on the bedside. He glanced at the name flashing on the screen, then impatiently raised it to his ear.
"Doctor Fu, you're calling me now, do you want to quit your job?"
"Sir, is Miss Xia here? I have something important to discuss with her." Fu Yichen's voice was filled with anxiety.
Bai Yeqing glanced at the little woman who was about to fall asleep beside him, "She's asleep, let's talk about it tomorrow if there's anything."
Xia Xingchen vaguely knew that it was Fu Yichen who was looking for her. What could he be looking for? Thinking of Wei Yang, who was now far away in Country M, she suddenly became much more sober.
"Give me the phone."
She thrust her hand out from under the quilt.
Bai Yeqing glanced at her and said to Fu Yichen, "Wait a moment."
She took the phone and said "Hello" softly. Fu Yichen was silent for a moment, then asked solemnly: "Ms. Xia, please tell me the truth..."
"Weiyang, is the baby in your belly mine?"
He paused for a long time before he finished the two sentences. In such a night, the man's voice sounded bitter.
Xia Xingchen was now completely awake. Holding the quilt, he half leaned against the head of the bed and sat up.
She glanced out the window. The lights were still on outside this unfamiliar Haicheng at this time. But she didn't know if the light in Weiyang's M country was as bright as it was here...
"Miss Xia?" Not hearing any answer, Fu Yichen asked again.
Xia Xingchen pursed his lips slightly, but the words he said were completely irrelevant, "Doctor Fu, your wife should have given birth by now, right? I haven't even congratulated you yet."
She said she was congratulating him, but in fact, there was no joy in her tone. When she thought of Wei Yang's grievances, how could she be happy
Her despair when I accompanied her to the hospital can still come into her dreams late at night.
At the side, Bai Yeqing seemed to sense her fluctuating emotions. He stopped flipping through the book in his hands and turned to look at her twice.
