"We're here." She took off her seat belt. It was really late now, and the whole neighborhood was very quiet.
"Yeah." Bai Yeqing said calmly, without saying anything, and just handed her the phone. Xia Xingchen opened the car door and got out, thinking for a moment, then turned back and said to him, "If Dabai is still awake when you get home, remember to give him a goodnight kiss for me."
Bai Ye frowned and said, "I want to give it to myself when I go back."
“…” She stopped talking. After a moment of silence, she pointed to the apartment building and said, “I’ll go up first.”
After that, he disappeared into the shadow of the apartment building without stopping. Bai Yeqing tilted his head and looked for a long time, with a gloomy look between his brows. He took out his cell phone and called Fu Yichen, "Prepare a scar removal medicine tomorrow and send it to my office."
… … … …
Xia Xingchen stood by the window, watching the man's car disappear in the community. Only after he was completely out of sight did she turn on the light, grab her clothes and go into the bathroom to take a shower.
After a while, I came out and lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Although she had not lived in the Presidential Palace for a long time, she had really gotten used to the feeling of someone sleeping in the room next to her. At least, she was used to having children around.
so…
Should she really have a good talk with Bai Yeqing about the child some other day? At least, let him stay with her for a few days occasionally a week.
As she thought about it, she couldn't help but think of the scenes on the bus today, and she felt a little red in the face. Until now, she still couldn't figure out how the two of them had reached that point again
… … … …
After Bai Yeqing got home, he went to the children's room. The little guy had wrapped himself up in a ball and had been lying on the bed for a long time, but he couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard he tried.
As soon as he opened the door, the little round head popped out from under the quilt. When he saw the person coming, the little guy's eyes immediately curved into crescents, "Xiaobai, you're back!"
"Um."
Compared to his son's enthusiasm, his attitude was still indifferent.
Xia Dabai suddenly arched up from the bed, tilted his head to the side, and looked behind him. Bai Yeqing knew what he was looking at, "Don't look, he hasn't come back yet."
"..." Xia Dabai suddenly felt like a deflated ball. He fell back onto the bed and sat up, looking at someone with some resentment, "It's all your fault, Xiaobai, for bullying our Dabao. Now Dabao is really angry and will definitely never come back."
Bai Yeqing frowned, "Go to sleep!"
The little fellow groaned and twisted his body to sleep, but he was still restless and sat up again, hugging the quilt, with a look of depression and disgust on his face, "Xiaobai, how come you are so bad at chasing women?"
Bai Yeqing's lips twitched, "You're so long-winded!"
"Girls need to be coaxed. Why do you lose your temper with Dabao? She is not me. I am your son. I should be filial and can barely tolerate your bad temper. But our Dabao is different..."
Bai Yeqing was annoyed to death by his nagging. This little guy has been becoming more and more lawless recently!
In the end, I simply ignored him, turned off the lights, turned around and walked out.
Brat!
He has lived for decades, but he still needs a four-year-old child who hasn't even grown a hair yet to teach him how to chase a woman
… … …
The next day.
After work, Xia Xingchen and Chi Weiyang went back to the community together. On the way, she passed by a bookstore and bought a lot of books. Now that she lives alone, she suddenly has a lot of free time, or in other words, her heart suddenly becomes empty. She always has to find something to do and find a place to rely on.
As soon as she entered the door, she received a call from Xu Yan. After last night's experience, she actually felt very embarrassed and was hesitating whether to answer the call. After thinking about it, she decided to listen.
But the person who called was not Xu Yan, but Xu's parents. She was relieved.
"Xingchen, your aunt has prepared a lot of delicious food tonight. Since you are alone anyway, why not come here for dinner after work?" Mother Xu strongly invited.
"No, I've already cooked the meal myself." Xia Xingchen lied, "Aunt Xu, I've been busy lately and may not be able to come over often. Sorry. Please let Xu Yan take good care of himself."
"You don't come often?" Mother Xu glanced at her son while she was talking. She felt uncomfortable when she saw his dark eyes. But Xia Xingchen said, "Well, I'm busy with work and don't have much time."
Xu's mother was not an ignorant person, and she understood what he said. She didn't say anything else, just said a few words to Xia Xingchen casually, and then hung up the phone.
Xia Xingchen sighed. If Xu Yan didn't take it to heart when she told him it was impossible, then he must have known everything about what happened last night.
After hanging up the phone, she called Xia Dabai's driver. When the driver heard her voice, he said respectfully, "Miss Xia, please wait a moment, the young master has just finished class."
After a while, Xia Dabai's crisp baby voice came from the other side.
"Dabao."
Xia Xingchen's heart was suddenly filled with joy. "Will you come over tonight? I'll make you your favorite sweet and sour spare ribs and roast a chicken drumstick, okay?"
"Okay!" Xia Dabai was eager, "Then I'll come over now."
"Yeah." Xia Xingchen felt sweet in her heart. Talking to her son was just like being in love. However, the sweeter it was, the more disappointed she felt.
I really don’t know what the mother and son will do in the future.
Judging from Bai Yeqing's strong attitude in taking Dabai away, it was almost impossible for her to let the child go with her. She couldn't imagine how Song Weiyi would treat Dabai after she came into the family. Although she had only met Song Weiyi twice, she didn't seem to be a gentle and modest person.
As she thought gloomily, she scooped a few bowls of rice, washed it, and cooked it in the pot. Then she went to clean up the ribs and chicken legs. She hadn't cooked for a while, but fortunately her cooking skills had not slacked off.
The place she rented was not big, just a small room that was newly renovated not long ago. The place was small, and the kitchen was also quite small, square, but it was just right for her to stay alone, not crowded but not too much space. This kind of house is most suitable for one person to live in.
When Xia Xingchen had almost finished packing, there was a knock on the door. Xia Xingchen went to open the door wearing an apron.
"Dabao!" Xia Dabai hugged her legs and rubbed his fair and tender face against her legs, "I miss you so much..."
In fact, the two had just met the day before yesterday. The little guy stayed here with her overnight. However, just two days of absence really felt like a year.
Xia Xingchen missed him so much that she squatted down and put her face close to him. Xia Dabai kissed her obediently.
