It hurts as much as it did then, but she doesn't regret it!
When Bai Xiao woke up, it was already bright outside, and the apartment was filled with a faint fragrance of milk.
When she walked out of the bedroom, she saw the backs of two people, one large and one small, busy in the kitchen.
Yu Shaoting was wearing a light gray sweater and casual pants. He had a broad back and a tall figure. His legs were straight and slender. His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows. His strong forearm muscles seemed to shine with a faint golden light in the early morning sun.
, frying a few eggs in the pan slowly and slowly.
Yu Jingxi followed Yu Shaoting's legs and was also very busy in the kitchen, occasionally doing some tricks and occasionally turning her back to eat something secretly.
Bai Xiao always thought that Yu Shaoting couldn't cook three meals a day.
Seeing him lower his head to let Yu Jingxi get the plate, while he was still stirring the eggs in the pot, Bai Xiao leaned against the door, feeling warm and satisfied that she had never felt before.
It is hard to imagine that one day such a successful, proud, and arrogant man would be willing to cook for her.
Yu Jingxi turned around with the plate filled with eggs and was about to twist a corner with her little finger to eat when she saw Bai Xiao at the door and almost threw the plate away.
"Why are you sneaking around at the door?" The little guy took the initiative and glared at her complainingly.
Yu Shaoting also turned his head and fixed his eyes on her for a few seconds. The brief gaze reflected the depth and emotion of a mature man.
"Have you brushed your teeth and washed your face?" he asked.
Bai Xiao shook his head, scratched his messy long hair, and said a little shyly, "Go and wash it right away." After saying that, he turned around and went to the bathroom.
While brushing her teeth, all Bai Xiao could think about was Yu Shaoting's back and the gentle look in his eyes when he turned around.
——————————
After breakfast, Yu Shaoting changed into a formal suit. Seeing him holding a tie to tie, Bai Xiao almost subconsciously stepped forward to take it.
When I got it in my hand, I was surprised to find that it was the thin burgundy tie I bought for him last time.
Bai Xiao stood on tiptoe to tie him a tie, but when she was about to take her hand back, he held her hand. His fingertips gently stroked the back of her hand, watching silently.
"I'm going to be late for work." Bai Xiao said as she went to get his coat.
Yu Shaoting's grip on her was very strong, not allowing her to take one more step.
Bai Xiao looked at him in surprise.
Yu Shaoting was also staring into her eyes and asked, "Did you dream about someone last night?"
Bai Xiao didn't want to tell him about last night's nightmare and affect his mood. After all, it was just a virtual reality.
When he asked her this question, she remembered another thing: "You haven't answered the question on the phone yesterday."
"Don't interrupt me, I'm asking you a serious question." Yu Shaoting frowned and his tone became much more serious.
Bai Xiao seemed to be obsessed with him: "My question is quite serious. You answer me first, and I will tell you who I dreamed about."
As he spoke, a pair of black and white eyes looked straight at his increasingly furrowed brows.
In the end, no one gave in first.
Yu Shaoting let go of her hand: "I'm going to work. Jingxi will start school tomorrow. Today I'll go to grandma's house to spend the day."
Bai Xiao didn't expect that he would suddenly change the topic, but Yu Shaoting had already raised his hand over her shoulder and took away the coat.
When she came out of the bedroom, Yu Jingxi had packed her schoolbag and followed Yu Shaoting to change her shoes.
The little guy sighed sadly when he saw Bai Xiao, but thinking that he had not been to the compound to accompany his grandma for many days, he still did not refuse to leave.
Before Yu Shaoting went out, Bai Xiao called to him. When he turned around, she said in ink: "The eggs are a bit salty."
The latter looked at her solemnly, but did not even argue a word for himself, and then walked away with Yu Jingxi in his arms.
Bai Xiao raised the corners of her lips happily, and then thought of another thing she had to do today.
——————————
Yu Shaoting sent Yu Jingxi to Yu's house, and unexpectedly met Su Manrong.
Su Manrong's spirit was not very good, just like the symptoms after staying up all night. Her eyes were bloodshot and she seemed ready to cry at any time.
As soon as she saw Yu Shaoting who was about to leave, Su Manrong could no longer care about anything else and ran downstairs to grab Yu Shaoting: "Shaoting..."
Yu Shaoting turned around.
"Xiaoxiao's roommate said she moved away. Do you know where she has a house in Fengcheng?"
Yu Shaoting: "Is it appropriate for my sister-in-law to ask me this question?"
Su Manrong's expression was stagnant. In addition to being anxious, she was also embarrassed. Yes, before, she had hoped that they would stop interacting with each other.
But she always felt that Yu Shaoting seemed to be hiding something from herself. She recalled the scratches on Yu Shaoting's chest and the hickeys on his neck the night before. Her heart sank, and she stared at Yu Shaoting for a moment: "Shaoting,
Do you really not know where Xiaoxiao lives?"
Yu Shaoting looked back at Su Manrong, his eyes straight, and he didn't dodge with any guilty conscience.
Su Manrong finally let go of him.
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first." After Yu Shaoting finished speaking, he had already walked out of the house.
Su Manrong turned around in despair, and happened to face Yu Yiwei who was standing on the stair step at some point.
Yu Yiwei wore a chiffon pink house dress, very princess-like, with curly waist-length hair, but she had an angry and aggrieved expression on her face.
Before Su Manrong spoke, Yu Yiwei asked: "Mom, you care so much about Bai Xiao, what does dad mean to you?"
Hearing her daughter mention Yu Zhengdong, Su Manrong's expression changed: "Weiwei, you have become less and less polite recently!"
"What's wrong with me like this? If you don't like it, go find your daughter!" After Yu Yiwei yelled, she turned around and ran upstairs with red eyes.
"Weiwei!" Su Manrong chased after her, but all she heard was the sound of the door being slammed shut.
When Su Manrong opened the bedroom door and went in, Yu Yiwei was lying on the bed crying, not only because her mother, who always loved her, had been blaming herself in recent days, but also because of her resentment towards Bai Xiao, because of this "sister" who suddenly appeared.
It disturbed their family’s originally peaceful and happy life!
Su Manrong felt unhappy in every way. She touched Yu Yiwei's shoulder, but she shook her away, and her eyes got wet.
She is not in this situation she wants, but things have already happened, haven't they?
Yu Yiwei cried for a long time before looking up at Su Manrong with red and swollen eyes: "I just ask you, do you really love daddy?"
Su Manrong felt heavy in her heart and nodded lightly under Yu Yiwei's almost questioning gaze.
In exchange, Yu Yiwei asked even more angrily: "Then why do you still have children with other men?!"
"Weiwei..." When the sore in her heart was opened by her daughter, Su Manrong burst into tears, but could not give any more explanation.
"Get out, I don't want to see you now."
Looking at Yu Yiwei who was throwing things on the ground, Su Manrong didn't dare to provoke her anymore. Before leaving, she couldn't help turning around and said: "You and Xiaoxiao are both my daughters, and your father is also the man I love most in my life. Back then...
...I'm sorry for him, and I'm sorry for your sister. I just hope you can treat your sister well."
Yu Yiwei said nothing.
Su Manrong felt depressed and helpless, and did not want to wait for a mother-daughter dispute. When she opened the door, she almost bumped into the child outside.
"Jingxi, you..." Su Manrong looked at Yu Jingxi, wondering how long he had been standing outside.
When Yu Jingxi saw the door opened, he calmly retracted his neck, took his two small hands from the door frame, and held them behind his back: "I originally wanted to ask you if you want to eat roasted chestnuts with sugar, but I think you should not eat them."
After saying that, he walked downstairs with his head held high.
After turning around the jogging platform, Yu Jingxi's steps slowed down. When he returned to the living room, the chestnuts tasted like nothing.
Xiaobai is the daughter of his eldest aunt. His father said that he wants to marry Xiaobai as his wife. So from now on, should he call his eldest aunt step-grandmother or step-grandmother?
What a serious question!
——————————
On the way to the company, Yu Shaoting received a call from Chief of Staff Yu.
A deafening roar came out of his mouth: "Is there anything else you can't do, even your sister-in-law's daughter?"
"I didn't know it at the time."
"You don't know? Even if you don't know, then how old is she then if you have the nerve to marry a minor of seventeen or eighteen years old?"
Yu Shaoting's taste was casual: "No matter how old he is, I will give birth to your grandson for you."
When he mentioned the little golden grandson of the Yu family, Yu Zhanming's roar suddenly disappeared, leaving only angry gasps.
After a moment, Yu Zhanming said, "Have you been raising her outside all these years?"
If this is the case, then this Bai Xiao is really a scheming woman, and she even coaxed the old lady into a corner!
"We just met her again recently. Don't impose your subjective assumptions on her. She is not that kind of woman."
"Then what kind of woman is she?" Yu Zhanming got angry again: "A girl from a good family would have a baby with you at the age of seventeen or eighteen? She knows you are married!"
Yu Shaoting didn't answer, and allowed Yu Zhanming to vent: "How did I give birth to a thing like you? Ah? If you don't learn from the good, you will learn from the bad!"
"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up." Yu Shaoting went to get the Bluetooth headset.
"Wait a minute!" Yu Zhanming stopped in time and spoke again. His voice was a little dry, and he was really old: "Bring me Yiwei on the day she gets engaged."
"I want to see what kind of woman she is!"
——Bah! Put the phone on hold.
Yu Shaoting did not take off the headphones immediately, but dialed Yang Xi's number again: "Help me prepare a yellow dress for the engagement banquet."
——————————
At the appointed time in the afternoon, Bai Xiao walked into the tattoo shop.
The people inside have more or less tattoos on their bodies and dyed hair, and they look like teenagers.
The person who washed Bai Xiao's tattoos was a woman in her early thirties. She had a gentle personality that didn't match the trendy dress. She pointed at the mandala tattoo on Bai Xiao's ankle and asked her: "Are you sure you want to wash it off? You will regret it later.
Don’t come to me again.”
Bai Xiao lay on the table: "You can wash it."
Just like letting go of a relationship, although there will be short-term pain, it is better than leaving a cancer that becomes a hidden danger.
Even though it hurt when she pricked the mandala, she had to endure the same pain now when she washed it off, but she had no regrets.
When the tattoo artist turned on the laser pointer, Bai Xiao shrank her left foot. Just when she was about to start, Bai Xiao suddenly stopped.
"Regret it?" the tattoo artist said with a smile, planning to call it a day.
Bai Xiao sat up on the table and said to the tattoo artist: "Can you help me take the bag?"
He took the bag, thanked him, took out his cell phone, hesitated, and finally clicked on Yu Shaoting's number and sent a text message.
"Would you like to go home for dinner tonight?" In fact, it is just to find some courage.
She has not been very courageous since she was a child. In recent years, in order to get some contracts for Pei, she was taken advantage of by some people in the business world. It was not because she was not afraid, but because she had a belief that supported her at that time.
What Yu Shaoting replied was not a text message, but a phone call: "Where are you?"
"Outside, I'll go buy groceries later."
"I might have to go back later."
"Okay." Even the little uneasiness in my heart disappeared.
After hanging up the phone, the tattoo artist smiled ambiguously at Bai Xiao: "Boyfriend?"
Bai Xiao did not deny it and lay back: "Go on." She still held the phone tightly in her hand.
When the laser hit the skin, even though she gritted her teeth and endured it, tears still slipped from the corners of her eyes, and the pain was so painful that she felt numb.
The tattoo artist glanced at Bai Xiao, who was sweating but not crying. He had spent a lot of time washing the tattoo, and a small piece of the pillow was already wet.
When the job was done, Bai Xiao looked down at her ankle, which was faintly bleeding with bloodshot eyes, feeling as if she was reborn.
The tattoo artist told her some precautions.
When Bai Xiao lowered her body, she felt a sharp pain in her left ankle. She staggered, but fortunately the tattoo artist held her in place so she didn't fall to the ground.
"Actually, this mandala is very beautiful. It would be a pity to wash it off," the tattoo artist said.
Bai Xiao held the upper part of his ankle and said in a faint voice, "But it no longer has any need to exist."
