"..." She was embarrassed. She was not as shameless as him. Her heart was beating fast and she pushed him, "Go to bed quickly."
Bai Yeqing didn't let go of her hand immediately. He just looked at her deeply and said, "I'm taking a flight to Switzerland at 8:15 this morning. I won't be back for at least a week. Take good care of the children for me these few days."
He'll be gone for a week...
That means that this week, she can only see him on TV. Xia Xingchen thought, this is probably a good thing, at least it can give her a buffer time to calm down. She nodded, "Don't worry, I will take good care of him. But you... You have a flight at 8:15, you have to get up very early, you should go to bed quickly."
"Yes." He said in a deep voice: "Stay with the child in the mansion for the next few days. Don't go back to your little house in case he gets sick again. Do you understand?"
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Bai Yeqing's eyes deepened and he pinched her earlobe. "If you were always so well behaved, you wouldn't always make me angry."
There was helplessness in his tone, and also a hint of teasing between lovers. Xia Xingchen felt her earlobes getting hot, and her heart started beating wildly. She stood there stupidly until he left with the quilt in his arms.
Coming back to my senses, I touched my earlobe. It was so hot…
… …
An hour later, the injection was completed and she was sure that the child no longer had a fever. Only then did she feel relieved, lay down on the bed with her clothes on, and fell asleep with her child in her arms.
Xia Dabai was dazed, he looked up, saw it was her, and snuggled into her arms. She sighed and hugged the child tighter.
The night finally passed safely without any danger.
When Xia Xingchen woke up again, it was still dark, just seven o'clock. She had slept for only two hours.
I got out of bed quietly, opened the door, and looked into the other room. I was worried that he would miss his flight, but when I entered the room, I realized that I was overthinking.
In the room, he was no longer there. The bed was empty and the quilt was not made.
I don't know when I left...
Didn't even say hello to her.
Looking at the empty bed, Xia Xingchen inexplicably felt a sense of loneliness in her heart, as if there was something missing. She then felt that her anxiety about gain and loss was ridiculous and unnecessary. She shook her head, forcing herself not to think too deeply, walked in slowly, and folded the quilt carefully.
"Awake?" Suddenly, a voice rang out. She was startled and turned around to see Bai Yeqing standing at the door.
He hasn't left yet!
It seemed that they were in the bathroom just now. Compared to her pajamas, he was now dressed neatly in a suit, looking very handsome. The tie she gave him was hanging around his neck.
"I thought... you were gone." Xia Xingchen said, her eyes fixed on him, and she couldn't move them away. Her mind was shaking violently.
He raised his hand and checked the time. "It's almost time to go. Leng Fei has been waiting outside for an hour."
Bai Yeqing walked up to her, looked at her, and then looked at the tie hanging around his neck. She understood what he meant, and didn't refuse, silently helping him tie the tie. He kept looking down at her, which made her fingers a little unsteady. She couldn't help but think of the scene of her being tied up by him yesterday, and her cheeks flushed.
Leng Fei came in and urged them to come in, but when he saw the scene inside, he quietly retreated.
There was really no time left, so after she had tied her tie, he went to the ward, kissed the child who was still sleeping, and then left.
… … …
Standing at the window, watching their motorcade leave in the darkness with bright lights, she felt at ease and went back to bed to take a nap with her child. Xia Dabai was half asleep and half awake, and asked, "Dabao, where is Xiaobai?"
"Dad is very busy. There are many important things waiting for him to deal with. He just left."
"Oh. He didn't even wake me up."
"You won't leave until I kiss you." Xia Xingchen also kissed him on the forehead, "Sleep a little longer. When you wake up, let Dr. Fu check again. If everything is fine, mom will take you home."
"Okay." Xia Dabai responded, then closed his eyes again and fell asleep peacefully.
… … … …
On the President's plane.
Bai Yeqing adjusted his tie and continued to work. Although he was very upset that some things were interrupted last night, he felt in a good mood when he looked at his tie. The color she chose matched his clothes today and was quite to his liking.
"Mr. President, here's some black tea for you." The flight attendant brought the black tea.
Bai Yeqing didn't look up, he just raised his hand to take it. Unexpectedly, his fingers just touched the teacup. The other party was just hired to serve him. It was the first time he saw the president in person, and he was so nervous that he couldn't avoid it. The teacup was overturned, and the tea spilled out, all over him.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Mr. President!" The other party apologized repeatedly, extremely nervous.
Leng Fei stood up immediately and frowned, "Why are you so reckless?"
"It doesn't matter." Bai Yeqing said lightly, waved his hand, and let the other party go.
Leng Fei turned around and told his female secretary May, "Prepare another set of clothes for you and send it to the dressing room."
"Yes." May received the order and hurried to prepare.
Bai Yeqing glanced at the wet tie and frowned. He hooked his finger, pulled it off, and handed it to Leng Fei.
Just as Leng Fei was about to remind her in her earphones that she needed to prepare a tie, she heard him say, "Ask May to take it and blow dry it."
"Will you still wear this?"
"Um."
Leng Fei said, "I brought a lot of clothes with me this time."
"No need, just this one." Bai Yeqing turned and walked towards the locker room at the back. Leng Fei followed him. After a while, he added, "It's done. Don't leave any marks on the tie."
"..." Leng Fei was quite surprised. Since when did you care so much about a tie
… … …
At noon, Fu Yichen personally nodded and approved the discharge, and Xia Xingchen took the child back to the Presidential Palace.
She was changing clothes in the bedroom when Chi Weiyang called. Chi Weiyang was worried to death over there, "Is the child okay? What happened?"
"I ate something bad, but I'm fine now, thanks to Dr. Fu." After she came back today, she noticed that the servants in the kitchen were completely replaced. None of the previous ones were gone. The housekeeper handled it quickly and roughly, which must have been Bai Yeqing's intention. She didn't ask any questions.
I was just worried: "I didn't go to work, did my boss say anything?"
"What can you say? You came in to give face to the president and vice president. Who dares to say anything? What matters is that you take good care of my godson."
