Bai Xiao turned her head and looked at his back as he walked to the restaurant. He was tall, long-legged, and well-dressed. A slow warmth seemed to flow into his heart.
At home, neither Yu Zhanming nor Yu Zhongxiao were there, so for dinner there were only Bai Xiao, his family, Mrs. Yu and Su Manrong.
When Mrs. Yu was setting the dishes, she realized that someone was missing: "Where is Yiwei? She went out early in the morning, why haven't she come back yet?"
Su Manrong also called her daughter, but no one answered the phone. She even went to ask Pei Qiyou, but there was no news about Yiwei.
"Maybe we went out to play." Even so, Su Manrong still planned to go out and have a look after dinner.
Bai Xiao sat next to Yu Shaoting. Yu Jingxi came out with a condiment tray and put the condiments in front of Bai Xiao with a wink. Then he didn't leave. He moved the chair to Bai Xiao's side with difficulty, hugged him closely, and then climbed on
Go up and sit down, a series of movements fell into Yu Shaoting's eyes, and he frowned.
Yu Jingxi glanced at Yu Shaoting's unwelcome look and shrank her neck. After the wedding banquet, her father seemed to have a bad attitude towards her...
Bai Xiao filled a small bowl of soup for the little guy, blew it, and brought it to Yu Jingxi: "Drink some soup first and then eat the vegetables."
The little guy was holding the spoon. Because Yu Shaoting was beside him, he didn't dare to make any other requests, otherwise he would be in danger of being taken away.
Seeing her son sipping the soup obediently, Bai Xiao felt extremely satisfied, stroking his soft curly hair with a smile on her lips.
Su Manrong's eyes have been on Bai Xiao since she sat down. Now she sees Bai Xiao carefully taking care of Yu Jingxi. Under the bright light, Yu Jingxi's eyebrows are almost carved out of the same mold as Bai Xiao. She didn't care before, but now she knows the truth.
I just felt my heart aching, and as I looked at it, my eyes gradually turned red.
Not long after the meal started, Yu Shaoting said: "Bai Xiao and I are planning to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register on Monday."
Monday? Today is Friday, isn’t that the day after tomorrow?
Bai Xiao, like everyone else, looked at him in astonishment. Yu Shaoting was not surprising, and she had no idea about this decision before.
"Um...I haven't called your dad about the wedding yet," Mrs. Yu said.
Yu Shaoting filled a bowl of soup for the old lady and pushed it over: "I will tell dad about this. Anyway, we will get married sooner or later, and it will be the same whether we register sooner or later."
The old lady always felt that something was strange, but after hearing Yu Shaoting's explanation, she felt that it was right.
"Now that we've decided, it might as well go and register early." Su Manrong suddenly interrupted.
Bai Xiao didn't expect that Su Manrong would speak for him. Before, she was the one who objected the most fiercely. She looked at Su Manrong opposite in surprise.
Su Manrong pulled her lips and looked at Yu Shaoting: "After you get married, live a good life, Shaoting, Xiaoxiao is young, you must tolerate her more in the future."
"I will." Yu Shaoting said. It was rare that he didn't say something to Su Manrong: "Sister-in-law, don't worry."
Su Manrong nodded happily, then turned to look at Bai Xiao.
Bai Xiao lowered her eyelashes. Next to her, Yu Jingxi raised her little face, chewing shrimps, and looked at her with a pair of big black eyes.
Taking two paper towels to wipe the greasy corners of the little guy's mouth, Yu Jingxi took the opportunity to ask like an adult: "What is registration?"
Bai Xiao was embarrassed by his question. It was really difficult to answer this question by herself. But Mrs. Yu saw her grandson's naive look and said with a smile: "Your father and Teacher Bai are getting married. You have to get a red book.
After that, you, Teacher Bai, will be considered your father's wife."
Yu Jingxi said oh and continued to peel the shrimp shells with her head lowered. Her thick and long eyelashes were curled, casting a shadow on her fair face.
Bai Xiao saw that the little guy was not in a good mood, and just as he was about to put his hand on his shoulder, there was a sudden movement at the door.
Everyone in the restaurant followed the sound, and even Yu Shaoting raised his head and looked at the entrance calmly.
It was Yu Yiwei who came back. She knocked over a high imitation blue and white porcelain umbrella placed at the door.
"Have you had dinner?" Mrs. Yu couldn't say she liked this granddaughter very much, but after all, she was her eldest son's only bloodline.
Su Manrong had already stood up and walked over. Seeing Yu Yiwei's pale face, she said, "Where did you go during the day? I didn't answer your phone calls."
Thinking of the joy and laughter she heard just before entering the door, Yu Yiwei clenched her hands hanging by her side, but there was no excessive expression on her face. Facing Su Manrong's nervous concern, she just said coldly in a very low voice: "You
It's better to care about your other daughter."
Su Manrong's expression changed.
However, Yu Yiwei passed her and walked straight to the restaurant. When she stepped into the restaurant, a faint smile appeared on her face: "It's a very rich dish. It seems I'm in time."
Mrs. Yu asked the nanny to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and Yu Yiwei sat down next to Su Manrong.
Among the people present, only Mrs. Yu and Yu Jingxi were unaware. Everyone else was whitewashing the situation.
After eating a few mouthfuls, Yu Yiwei covered her mouth with one hand and pressed her chest with the other, frowning and not starting to retching.
Su Manrong quickly asked the nanny to pour a glass of water and stroked Yu Yiwei's back. Even Mrs. Yu asked: "Okay, are you feeling unwell?"
Yu Yiwei wiped her mouth, smiled with a pale face, but looked at Bai Xiao: "Maybe it's because of pregnancy."
When Bai Xiao heard this, he raised his eyes and met Yu Yiwei's sarcastic eyes. He turned his head away without any trace and touched the back of Yu Jingxi's head.
Yu Jingxi noticed that Bai Xiao didn't seem to have eaten anything. He looked at the last duck paw he had just grabbed in his bowl. After a fierce psychological struggle, he still sent the uneaten duck paw to Bai Xiao's bowl.
: "The duck feet cooked by Aunt Zhang are delicious, please try it."
Yu Yiwei sneered, and then asked Mrs. Yu: "Grandma, do you think a divorced person will be discovered if he wants to deceive everyone and say it is his first marriage?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire restaurant was silent for an instant.
Yu Yiwei continued with a smile: "It's funny to say that. Today I passed by the Civil Affairs Bureau and saw someone fighting there. Out of curiosity, I got out of the car and took a look. Only then did I find out that a woman who had been divorced before was...
I kept it secret from my current partner's family, but when I went to register today, my ex-husband came to the door. The lie was exposed, and people on both sides took action. Grandma, you don't know how bloody that scene was."
"Why is there still such a thing?" Old Mrs. Yu said in surprise: "Don't you go check it out before you get married?"
Yu Yiwei kept staring at Bai Xiao opposite her, but she replied to Mrs. Yu: "Who knows about this. It may be because of her skill, but this day is so meticulous and meticulous, it is not hers, no matter how hard she goes,
Scheming is just a waste of effort, and you will eventually be punished."
"What happened next? Did you really not register?"
Yu Yiwei was about to say something when suddenly two sharp eyes fell on her face. She turned her head and saw Yu Shaoting holding up the wine glass and slowly taking a sip of the wine. Those bottomless eyes were looking at her.
Looking at herself with neither happiness nor anger, she read his warning to herself.
Old Mrs. Yu sighed: "You have to be honest as a person. You can't think about cheating and deception all day long, otherwise you won't end up well."
Bai Xiao lowered his head and put a mouthful of rice into his mouth, but couldn't taste it. With Mrs. Yu's words in his ears, how could it end well...
The left hand under the table was suddenly surrounded by a dry warmth.
Bai Xiao didn't look at him, but the hand under the table firmly grasped his.
"Bah!" Su Manrong suddenly put down her chopsticks, stood up, and said to Yu Yiwei: "I remembered that I bought you some radiation-proof clothes at the mall just now. Come up with me and try it on. If it doesn't fit,
I’ll take it and change it tomorrow.”
Yu Yiwei sat there without moving, picking up a piece of chicken and said, "I still need to eat, so I'll put my clothes away first."
However, Su Manrong grabbed Yu Yiwei and dragged her upstairs together no matter how much Yu Yiwei yelled.
Old Mrs. Yu didn't pay much attention to it. She gave Bai Xiao a chicken leg and said, "You are so thin, eat more. This is how mother and daughter are. Don't worry about it."
——————————
Su Manrong pulled Yu Yiwei into her bedroom and closed the door. Yu Yiwei had already shaken off her hand and was about to go out again.
"Did you turn a deaf ear to what I told you last night?" Su Manrong grabbed her and scolded her in a harsher tone than ever before.
"What did I do?" Yu Yiwei stared at Su Manrong with wide eyes and disbelief, "Don't I have freedom of speech?"
"Do you want freedom of speech? Then I will send you to the United States, and you can say whatever you like there."
Yu Yiwei forcefully tore open Su Manrong's restraints, "Why should I go abroad? I haven't touched your eldest daughter yet!"
"..." Su Manrong closed her eyes, her temples aching. She took a deep breath and looked at Yu Yiwei: "Weiwei, you are already in your twenties. It's time to grow up. Some words have to go through the brain before they are spoken.
Think about it, don’t ignore the consequences just for the sake of quick success.”
Yu Yiwei slowly backed away and looked at Su Manrong, her eyes full of disappointment.
"You have changed. You are no longer the mother who loved me and loved me. All you think about now is Bai Xiao." Yu Yiwei pointed at the door and gritted her teeth: "The consequences, what consequences? Why didn't you say anything? You're like this
Isn't it just so that she can live a happy life?"
Su Manrong frowned: "Am I wrong to think so? Weiwei, Xiaoxiao is also your sister, shouldn't you think more about her?"
"I think for her, but who will think for me?"
Yu Yiwei sniffed, but tears fell, "You don't want me anymore, and Pei Qiyou doesn't want me anymore..."
"What did you say?" Su Manrong was surprised and stepped forward to hold her arm: "What happened to you and Qi You? What do you mean he doesn't want you anymore?"
"Do you really not know? You help Bai Xiao in everything, and you don't think about me at all. Do you know that this morning, I went to see Pei Qiyou, and Pei Qiyou said he didn't want to marry me, and he wanted Bai Xiao,
He also asked me to abort the child. He said that he has always loved Bai Xiao..."
Su Manrong's face was pale, and she looked at Yu Yiwei's still flat belly, and heard Yu Yiwei crying and shouting: "She is happy, what about me?"
"You asked me to keep this secret, but I can't do it! Why can she turn into a phoenix and marry my brother-in-law, but I have to abort the child in my belly?" Yu Yiwei stopped crying, but her eyes were filled with resentment.
, "If the two of us break up at worst, she won't be able to get over what I lost!"
Su Manrong dragged her: "Do you think you can change anything if you tell your grandma?"
Yu Yiwei turned around and looked at Su Manrong. Su Manrong took a deep breath and said, "Jing Xi is your sister's biological son. Even if your grandma knows that your sister is married, your sister and your brother-in-law both have a child. You
Do you think your words can change everything today?"
"You lied to me!" Yu Yiwei shook her head. She didn't believe it. That little brat was obviously——
"I didn't believe it at first." Su Manrong turned around and took out a document bag from the drawer: "See for yourself, your uncle just gave it to me."
"He had expected that I would know, and even prepared this paternity test at home." Su Manrong felt extremely tired: "On the day you and Qi You got engaged, you went to the hotel, and your brother-in-law
I told your grandparents about this."
Yu Yiwei flipped through the pages of the paternity test. She couldn't read it and couldn't understand most of it, but she did understand the final conclusion!
How could this happen... Several pages of paper fell from her hands and fell at her feet.
"Your sister has had a hard enough life in the past twenty years, but as for you, Weiwei, please ask your conscience, am I not good to you as a mother? Whatever you want, I will give it to you
I tried my best to give it to you. What was your sister doing at that time? She had been dependent on others since she was a child. She had to rely on others to live her life. She never lived a good life for herself."
Su Manrong's eyes wet, "When you and Qi You were together, they had not yet divorced. Weiwei, what kind of situation do you want to force your sister into?"
Yu Yiwei saw the blame in Su Manrong's eyes and couldn't help but defend herself: "I don't know, I am also a victim. Who knows if they colluded to deceive our Yu family..."
"That's enough, Weiwei!" Su Manrong didn't expect her to be so stubborn: "It seems that I haven't taught you well in these years."
Yu Yiwei didn't understand Su Manrong's sad emotion.
"Since you are not married to Qi You, when your sister and brother-in-law's affairs are settled, you can go abroad with me." Su Manrong looked at Yu Yiwei's belly again: "In two days, I will take you to have the child born.
Well, you are still young and you will eventually get married, so it is not good to have a child as a drag."
"I don't want an abortion!" Yu Yiwei protected her belly, pushed Su Manrong away, and ran out of the bedroom with staggering steps.
——————————
Why should I fulfill her happiness? Why should you help her like this? Why should I be destined to be the miserable one?
Yu Yiwei held on to the wall of the corridor, the hatred for Bai Xiao in her heart was like a vine wrapping around her throat, getting tighter and tighter, making her breathless.
Do you want me to keep my mouth shut? Do you think Bai Xiao can live a comfortable life like this?
Yu Yiwei sneered, her eyes were scarlet, she couldn't do it, just think of Bai Xiao's sweet and happy smile, she couldn't even do it for a second!
When she went downstairs and saw the harmonious scene in the restaurant, she felt extremely ridiculous.
If grandma knew that Bai Xiao was a second-married woman, would she still smile so kindly?
And grandpa, according to his temper, what he hates most is being deceived...
"Have you tried on the clothes?" Mrs. Yu saw Yu Yiwei with a smile on her face: "Come over and continue eating."
"No, I had something to eat before I came back." Yu Yiwei smiled, but it was not in her eyes: "I'm going to take a walk outside."
While talking, Yu Yiwei took out her mobile phone from the bag she had just thrown on the sofa, turned to the entrance, changed her shoes and went out.
After leaving the house, the cold wind hit her. Yu Yiwei shivered, but she felt even more desolate.
She walked to an inconspicuous corner and dialed Yu Zhanming's number in the capital. The person on the line was Yu Zhanming's secretary, saying that the chief of staff was still in a meeting.
"Please give the phone to my grandpa, just say... just say I -"
Before Yu Yiwei finished speaking, the phone suddenly left her hand, and she felt her palm was empty. Her heart tightened, and she heard Yu Shaoting's deep and plain voice behind her: "What words should be said, what words should not be said, it seems that I
That sister-in-law still didn’t mention you well.”
Yu Yiwei suddenly turned around, and sure enough, Yu Shaoting was standing behind her at some point, and what he held in his hand was her mobile phone.
She even heard the secretary's questioning voice on the phone.
Yu Shaoting stared at her, but put the phone to his ear and said to the person on the other end of the phone: "It's me, my niece, who is more naughty and often likes to make harmless jokes. You don't need to tell my dad. Okay, hang up."
."
"Give me your phone back. I have something to tell grandpa!" Yu Yiwei was about to rush to grab the phone.
Yu Shaoting easily grabbed her arm and said in a cold voice: "I see you are getting more and more presumptuous now!"
