Bai Xiao didn't dare to say bad about Yu Zhanming's proposal, but she also didn't dare to accept it casually. After all, she promised Yu Shaoting first.
"You used to be Jing Xi's violin teacher. I think you can try out in the army's art troupe..." Yu Zhanming said.
Over there, Yu Shaoting came downstairs and happened to hear Yu Zhanming's words about poaching. He interrupted his father: "At the latest, we will go abroad in mid-June."
Yu Zhanming glared at his son: "I think you have been brainwashed by capitalism." After saying that, he put down his chopsticks, stood up, put his hands behind his back, and left with a straight face.
Yu Shaoting entered the restaurant and sat down where Yu Zhanming had just been.
"I'll cook noodles for you." Bai Xiao put down his chopsticks, and as soon as he stood up, his hand was suddenly held by him.
Turning back, Bai Xiao looked at the man leaning on the chair, Yu Shaoting's slender fingers holding her soft palm: "Why did you get up so early?"
"I was woken up by the chants and couldn't sleep, so I got up."
Bai Xiaohui squeezed his hand, let go, and entered the kitchen. Soon, there was a sound of pots and pans inside.
After sitting for a while, Yu Shaoting stood up. Wearing crisp trousers and a shirt, he walked in and saw Bai Xiao, who was cooking noodles intently. He stared at her, then walked over and hugged her from behind. Bai Xiao
Turning around, he smiled: "Go and wait outside. The smell of oil smoke is a bit strong inside."
Yu Shaoting reached out and opened the lid of the pot. A burst of crispy fish aroma came to her face. He hugged her with one hand and closed the lid again with the other: "Let the nanny do it from now on."
"It's okay anyway," Bai Xiao pushed him away gently and stirred the noodles with chopsticks: "Bring a bowl over here."
Yu Shaoting let her go, went to the cupboard, opened the cupboard door, and took out a soup bowl.
——————————
The two returned to the dining table. Yu Shaoting placed the bowl of freshly cooked noodles in front of her and took away the bowl of cold noodles she had eaten.
Sometimes, when you care about someone, you can't bear to see him suffer even the slightest injustice, including eating the cold noodles she has eaten.
Bai Xiao wanted to take back his bowl of noodles: "I've eaten this bowl."
Yu Shaoting refused, so he picked up the chopsticks, lowered his head and started to eat the noodles without frowning. It seemed that the taste was quite to his liking.
Bai Xiao asked if he wanted to warm up the noodles, and Yu Shaoting said lightly: "It's good, no need to bother."
Watching him eating the noodles, Bai Xiao felt warm, happy and satisfied. With a smile on her lips, she picked up her chopsticks and started eating the noodles. After eating for a while, she seemed to have thought of something, and raised her head and asked him: "Yesterday"
Late at night, in the hospital, what did the Xu family say?"
She was originally waiting for him downstairs in the inpatient department, but later, she couldn't stand the sleepiness and fell asleep.
Yu Shaoting raised his eyelids and glanced at her. He saw the concern for him from her face and eyes. He stopped eating noodles, thought for a while, and then said: "I told Mr. Xu that his granddaughter can't have children."
, and you were also introduced to me by his granddaughter."
"..."
No matter how you listen to these words, it sounds like Xu Shuyuan has found a third son for her husband.
Bai Xiao's face flushed slightly and she whispered softly: "Why do you say that..."
"Otherwise, what should I say?" After Yu Shaoting finished eating, he put down his chopsticks, leaned on the chair, and looked at her: "Tell him that the two of us were having an affair, and we were sleeping around outside behind his granddaughter's back, until one day, the gun went off and the whole thing was shot.
A child was born?”
His tone was serious, but in Bai Xiao's ears, these words sounded inexplicably aroused by him...
Especially Yu Shaoting's teasing gaze.
Bai Xiao thought he sounded relaxed, but the real situation... the Xu family couldn't handle it that easily. How could the Xu family believe this kind of rhetoric, but he didn't say.
She still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart: "Because Jing Xi and I have made you feel wronged."
Yu Shaoting took the hand she extended, tightened it, and did not continue the topic. He said: "I have booked a flight back to Fengcheng in the afternoon. I have to go out for something. I will ask the nanny to cook a meal for you at noon, or go out."
Eat, I’ll be back around twelve o’clock to pick you up and take you to the airport together.”
——————————
After Yu Shaoting left, Bai Xiao had nothing to do, so she helped the nanny choose vegetables and listened to the nanny tell some interesting things in the compound.
Because it was the weekend, there were children running around in the yard, and Bai Xiao couldn't help but think of the little ones at home.
"I remember in the past, when the Third Young Master came to the capital, the old chief of staff wouldn't let him smoke at home. At that time, Miss Shuyuan blushed when she saw the Third Young Master. When she saw the Third Young Master going out with a cigarette case, she said nothing.
He chased her after him, but when the third young master came back, Miss Shuyuan stood on the rockery and couldn't get up or down. She was so frightened that her voice changed."
The nanny looked at the group of children jumping around on the rockery and smiled as she reminisced about the past: "Then the Xu family left, and the chief of staff gave the third young master a harsh lesson. You don't know that the tempers of father and son are exactly the same."
, the second time Miss Shuyuan came to the house, the Third Young Master simply didn’t show up."
After saying that, the nanny realized that she had said something wrong. The person in front of her was the third young master's new wife.
Bai Xiao didn't fall out because of this. She listened with interest when the nanny told about Yu Shaoting's past, even though there was Xu Shuyuan in these stories.
She was a little jealous. There was another excellent and beautiful woman in Yu Shaoting's life, but she was not unreasonable.
The phone at home rang, and the nanny ran in to answer it. It was the military line, and the call came from the door of the family home. The nanny said a few words to the other end of the phone, covered the phone, and told Bai Xiao that a guest was coming, but at home, this
Now the old chief of staff is not here again.
"Is he an important guest?" Bai Xiao thought for a moment and said, "If you don't mind, I'll pick you up at the door."
The nanny had already hung up the phone: "The guard didn't elaborate." But if he was a dangerous person, the guard wouldn't have made the call.
Bai Xiao nodded and changed her shoes. She was not familiar with this place, so she asked the orderly to accompany her to the door to pick up the guests.
When Bai Xiao saw Xu Zhenning waiting at the door, she stopped.
When Xu Zhenning saw that the person coming was Bai Xiao, she couldn't believe it at first, then sneered coldly, put on her sunglasses, turned around and walked away.
"She's a young lady from the Xu family." The orderly said from the side. He thought Bai Xiao didn't know Xu Zhenning.
"I've seen her a few times before. Let's go back. She probably won't come in."
As for who Xu Zhenning came to see, the answer was written on her face. Otherwise, he wouldn't have such a resentful and disappointed expression when he saw her.
——————————
Xu Zhenning returned to her car, angrily took off her sunglasses and threw them on the passenger seat next to her.
She only heard that Yu Shaoting came to the capital. Why, that woman's ghost lingered with her wherever Yu Shaoting went.
Xia Lan called: "If you are not at home, where have you gone? Are you looking for Yu Shaoting again?!"
"..." Xu Zhenning did not dare to say that she was in the courtyard, so she casually mentioned a location.
Xia Lan's voice became stern: "Don't fool me. As soon as Yu Shaoting comes to the capital, are you so eager to get together?"
"I just want to come and see him, and I don't want to do anything else."
"You go home immediately." Xia Lan ordered in a cold voice: "Don't go looking for him again, unless you still think you are not enough to disgrace the Xu family."
Xu Zhenning was angry: "You have known the Xu family all day, the Xu family, and I like Yu Shaoting. What's wrong? Besides, I am not a child of the Xu family in the first place."
"Xu Zhenning, you are really out of your mind!"
Xu Zhenning heard a "click" and hung up the phone. She held the phone but could not calm down the resentment and grievance in her heart.
After starting the car, she did not listen to Xia Lan and go back to the villa. Instead, she turned around and went to the hospital where Mr. Xu was.
——————————
When Yu Shaoting came back from doing things, Bai Xiao had already had lunch. The two of them packed up and headed to the airport.
On the way to the airport, Bai Xiao thought it was polite and decided to call Yu Zhanming.
Yu Shaoting actually had no such plan, but because of Bai Xiao's request, he dialed Yu Zhanming's number and handed the phone to Bai Xiao.
Over there, Yu Zhanming was not very happy when he heard that they had gone to the airport. He said a few words in a rough voice and hung up the phone.
Bai Xiao held the phone and said, "Your father doesn't seem to want us to go abroad."
"He used to want to kick me abroad and keep me out of sight. It would be best if I never show up in front of him."
Yu Shaoting put his arm around her waist, and instead of letting the family's orderlies drive her away, they hailed a taxi at the gate of the compound.
Bai Xiao raised her head and looked at his angular facial features. His words were joking. She remembered what the nanny said about him, and couldn't help but be curious. "I'm curious, what kind of person were you before?"
What kind of person?”
"Want to know?" Yu Shaoting looked down at her.
Bai Xiao acquiesced that she wanted to know what kind of handsome and angry man Yu Shaoting was in his early twenties before he met her.
Yu Shaoting smiled. After a while, he looked outside and said, "The airport has arrived."
This topic was just dropped.
——————————
Back in Fengcheng, Bai Xiao felt that this trip to the capital was like a dream. The speed of the round trip exceeded her original expectations.
Even the Xu family was not as difficult as she imagined.
After Yu Jingxi was abandoned again, in order to express her dissatisfaction, she stayed in the compound for two full days. On the third night, no one came to pick her up. She felt angry and aggrieved, so she went upstairs to pack her luggage and asked the orderly to
Send him back to Qinyuan.
Dragging a small suitcase and carrying a big schoolbag, I returned to Qinyuan. As soon as I entered the house and saw the couple eating in the restaurant, I was so sad that I almost shed tears.
In fact, Bai Xiao wanted to pick up her son, but Yu Shaoting stopped her because Mrs. Yu missed her grandson, and told her that the little boy lived happily in the compound. Bai Xiao had no doubt that he was there, and just like that, he and Yu Shaoting
After a few days, the two of them became worlds.
In order to express her anger again, Yu Jingxi returned to her bedroom and started a hunger strike, wrapping herself in a quilt and ignoring anyone.
As a result, no one really paid attention to him.
Yu Jingxi got up from the bed, lifted the quilt, messed up her hair, rubbed her eyes, and walked out of the room with her slippers on.
He wandered to the master bedroom, the lights were off, and no one was there, but the lights were on in the study. He lay at the door and eavesdropped for a while, but there was no movement. Then he wandered downstairs, and a strong fragrance came from the kitchen.
He walked over and saw Bai Xiao busy in the kitchen.
Bai Xiao is cooking spicy and sour day needles and fat beef soup, which she recently learned from a cookbook in the bookstore. This is the second time she has made this dish.
The first time was last night. After Yu Shaoting tasted it, he said it tasted pretty good.
If a man with a naughty mouth can say it's good, it must be really good. Therefore, Bai Xiao called the compound to ask about Yu Jingxi's situation in the past two days, and learned that the little guy was in a miserable mood tonight and didn't even eat dinner.
So I went to the kitchen to cook dinner for him, thinking that I would let the little guy have a try.
When Bai Xiao went to get the spoon, he caught a glimpse of the little figure by the door and said with a smile: "Are you hungry? Eat some fruit first to cushion your stomach."
Opening the refrigerator, Bai Xiao took out the fruit salad she made in the evening. The fruit combinations in it were all the little one's favorite.
There was also a table in the kitchen, and Yu Jingxi climbed onto the stool beside the table without going outside.
Thinking that he would have to eat later, Bai Xiao cut off a quarter of the salad and told Yu Jingxi: "Don't eat more."
The little guy's stomach was already growling with hunger. He poked his head and glanced at the sink a few times, but because of his backbone, he didn't ask. When Bai Xiao turned around to tinker with the pot, he stretched his neck to look around curiously, and finally
I really couldn't stand it anymore, so I slid off the stool and walked over: "What are you cooking?"
"You haven't eaten yet?" Bai Xiao put the soup into a large soup bowl and asked the little guy to step aside to prevent him from being scalded.
Yu Jingxi followed her to the table, then climbed back on the stool, smelling the spicy and sour aroma, feeling a little greedy. Bai Xiao had already heated up a bowl of rice, took the chopsticks, gave them to him, and went to get a small spoon.
, took a spoonful, blew on it, and then handed it to him to drink after making sure it was not hot.
A bowl of spicy and sour daylily and fat beef soup that I had never tasted before successfully eliminated the anger in the little guy's heart. After eating, he became addicted to Bai Xiao again.
"Why didn't you come to pick me up?" Yu Jingxi felt aggrieved, holding the plate of fruit salad and standing next to Bai Xiao who was washing the dishes.
"I thought you wanted to live there."
"...That's what I said, but you didn't call me even once." Yu Jingxi raised his head and said, "You can't do this again, you know?"
Bai Xiao squatted down, took off his gloved hands, and pulled up his clothes for him, smiling: "I understand, I will definitely ask your opinion first in the future."
Yu Jingxi was very satisfied with the answer and took a piece of cantaloupe with a knife and fork and brought it to Bai Xiao's mouth.
After the little guy had eaten and drank enough, Bai Xiao took him to take a bath. The little guy soaked in the bathtub and let Bai Xiao wash his hair. He squinted his eyes and moved around naked in the bathtub. Suddenly he said: "You
If you go to the capital with my father, do my grandmother and others disapprove of you being together?"
"Actually, I can understand them. They don't know you. If they get familiar with you, they will also like you."
Is the little guy comforting her?
Bai Xiao felt sweet in her heart, rinsed the foam from his head, let him stand up, and wrapped him in a bath towel. Now that she was pregnant, she could no longer hold him at will. The little guy climbed out of the bathtub with the towel in his arms, drooping.
With wet hair, I ran out of the bathroom, climbed on the bed and jumped up and down, feeling so happy.
After Yu Jingxi fell asleep, Bai Xiao turned off the lamp, closed the door, and went back to the master bedroom.
Yu Shaoting was taking a shower in the bathroom. Bai Xiao hung up his clothes, turned on the TV, and watched a variety show for a while.
At night, the two of them were lying in bed, and Yu Shaoting subconsciously held her in his arms.
Bai Xiao leaned on his chest, turned his head, stretched out his hand, and pinched the strong muscles on his arm: "In the future, you are not allowed to bully my son again."
Yu Shaoting said nothing, closed his eyes, and seemed to be asleep.
"Did you hear what I said?" Bai Xiao nudged him with her elbow.
"..."
Bai Xiao felt that he was not sleeping, but no matter what she said, he ignored her. But the next morning, what he said was obviously an act of revenge.
"If this continues, you will have to go to boarding school when you return to Las Vegas."
The results of Yu Jing Xiyue's exam came out, and she ranked thirty-seventh. There were a total of forty students in the class, fourth from the bottom.
The little guy was frightened when he heard the word 'boarding school'. Bai Xiao kicked Yu Shaoting under the table, but he didn't buy her fault at all.
On the way to send Yu Jingxi to school, Bai Xiao had to promise again and again that she would have a good talk with Yu Shaoting and not send him to boarding school.
As soon as Bai Xiao arrived at the bookstore, Mrs. Yu called and asked her to go to the beauty salon for treatment together.
After explaining to Xiao Zhao, Bai Xiao took a taxi to the compound, but as soon as she entered the door, she saw a female officer in military uniform sitting in the living room.
The other party heard footsteps and turned around. Bai Xiao didn't expect that it was Xu Zhenning, and the epaulettes on her shoulders were from the art troupe.
Yu Zhanming suggested that she go to the art troupe, but Xu Zhenning went instead, and her movements were so fast that she couldn't hide her ears.
