Bai Yeqing glanced at him, but didn't notice anything. He just nodded slightly and walked out slowly. He didn't stop when he passed Xia Xingchen.
She was slightly stunned, and kept thinking about what her son had just said.
When she came to her senses, she only saw his back. She wanted to ask if it was what she had said to her son, but Xia Dabai was rubbing his hands and bowing behind her, begging her not to betray himself. She was soft-hearted and had to give up asking.
I followed him and looked up at his broad back several times, feeling indescribably complicated.
She walked in a daze all the way, until Leng Fei opened the car door for him and he got in. Leng Fei smiled and called her "Miss Xia", and she suddenly came back to her senses.
Oops.
I actually followed him here!
"Sorry." Xia Xingchen said softly, feeling extremely embarrassed. She didn't even dare to look at Bai Yeqing in the car. She turned around and prepared to walk towards the driver who was already waiting for her in the mansion.
But all I heard was Leng Fei saying, "I've been too busy lately, and I haven't had time to congratulate Miss Xia."
Xia Xingchen didn't understand and looked up at him, "Is there anything I should be congratulated for?"
"Of course it's about work. Congratulations, Miss Xia, on passing the assessment and re-entering the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."
"Thank you." Xia Xingchen thanked him politely, "I didn't expect that you would know about my work even though you are so busy. It's thoughtful of you."
"If anyone is interested, it should be you, my Lord."
"he?"
Xia Xingchen subconsciously looked into the car again.
What does it have to do with him
As if he could see through her thoughts at the moment, Leng Fei said: "Your Excellency has made a special phone call to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and asked them to..."
"Secretary Leng, are you free?"
A cold voice came, interrupting Leng Fei's further words.
The car window slowly lowered, revealing the handsome face of the man. He glanced at Leng Fei and said, "I didn't know you were so talkative before."
"..." Leng Fei shuddered and didn't dare to say anything more. He just nodded to Xia Xingchen and turned around to leave.
Xia Xingchen frowned slightly, glanced at Bai Yeqing, and subconsciously reached out to hold Leng Fei, "Secretary Leng, finish your words before you leave."
"I've said too much. Miss Xia, if you want to ask anything, just ask your Excellency directly."
Leng Fei didn't dare to stay any longer, and Xia Xingchen naturally couldn't stop her. A car whizzed away.
She stood there, staring at the gradually disappearing rear end of the car for a long time, then suddenly remembered something and turned around and went back into the house.
"Dabai." She called her son.
"Eh? Dabao, why are you back again?"
Xia Xingchen took out her cell phone from her bag and asked, "Do you have your dad's private number?"
"Of course I have, what's my relationship with my dad?" The little guy was so proud. Not many people know my dad's private number!
The next second, he looked at her again, "Dabao, you don't even have Xiaobai's phone number yet, do you?"
"Well, no."
"Xiao Bai didn't take the initiative to give it to you?"
"Did not give."
"Tsk tsk, dad is such a loser. He wants to woo a girl but doesn't even leave her his phone number. How can he woo her?" He looked disgusted.
Xia Xingchen was embarrassed for a moment, "Don't talk nonsense. Hurry up and give me his number. I have something to ask him."
Xia Dabai took her phone, fiddled with the screen with his white and tender little fingers, and saved Bai Yeqing's number. When Xia Xingchen saw the name he saved, he patted his head in annoyance, "Nonsense."
This little thing actually saved her the name of her 'future husband'! How could he think of that!
She wanted to change it immediately, but no matter what she did, the edit key wouldn't move.
"What's wrong?"
Is it possible that the system has crashed
"Don't change it, this one is the most suitable." Xia Dabai smiled slyly, "However, with your IQ, Dabao, you definitely can't change it even if you want to."
Xia Xingchen understood, "You set up some program on my phone, didn't you?"
"Not stupid. Well, if I were really stupid, I wouldn't have given birth to a little genius as smart as me." Xia Dabai felt very good about himself. He didn't change the program for her and ran upstairs again.
Xia Xingchen really didn't know whether to cry or laugh at her son's high IQ.
So, what's going on now? Even a child can bully her
Did these two, father and son, discuss this beforehand
… … …
Xia Xingchen tried to call his private number. She still felt embarrassed when she saw the words "future husband" flashing on the screen. She was afraid of being seen, so she always held the screen tightly with one hand when she called. If he knew about this, she really didn't know what he would think of her.
Xia Xingchen thought of what he said to her last night - you have to look at the person when you go on a blind date. Is it possible for Yu Zenan to marry you? - Her eyelashes drooped slightly, and her eyes dimmed. It is conceivable that these four words must be a laughing stock in his eyes.
No one answered Bai Yeqing's phone calls.
Xia Xingchen called twice in total. No one answered the morning call, so she called again during lunch, but got the same result.
He is very busy.
She wasn't ignorant enough to keep calling, but she would still stare at the phone from time to time, waiting for him to call back.
Just as the break was about to end, at around one o'clock, Xia Xingchen's cell phone suddenly rang.
She took out her cell phone almost immediately, but the person flashing on the screen was not Bai Yeqing, but Li Lingyi.
Very surprised.
Generally speaking, she would never come to me unless it was something important.
After thinking about it, I took the phone and put it to my ear.
"Xingchen, something happened to your dad!" Li Lingyi's tone on the phone was anxious and flustered, and she almost cried as soon as she opened her mouth.
Xia Xingchen frowned slightly, and her heart twisted, but she just asked calmly: "What happened?"
"Your dad... had a fever two days ago, and the epidemic prevention department took him away today, saying... that he was confirmed to have been infected with the Wisconsin epidemic."
Li Lingyi sobbed as she spoke. Xia Xingchen's heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously clenched his hands around the phone.
The Wis epidemic is now spreading across the globe, with both mortality and infection rates being quite high, and no effective treatment or prevention drugs have yet been developed globally.
Therefore, contracting such an epidemic is, to a large extent, equivalent to a death sentence. It is no exaggeration to say that one has already stepped into the gates of hell.
Because the domestic epidemic prevention work has always been done well, the scope of the spread is not wide for the time being. However, she never thought that this disease would hit her family.
"I'll be back right away." Xia Xingchen was also anxious.
"What's the point of you coming back? Your father is not at home right now. You'd better check and see if there is anyone you know in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who can help us go see your father! He's been quarantined and we have no idea what his condition is..." At this point, Li Lingyi started crying again.
