"Lao Liu didn't know anything about what happened back then. He has been childless for more than 20 years, which is the biggest punishment. Today I'm just here to give you a message. As for whether you come to the capital or not, the decision is up to you.
On hand."
Liang Huizhen's tone of voice was still aloof, but Bai Xiao didn't detect any malice. She couldn't help but say "goodbye" before ending the call.
The person on the other end was stunned for a moment, and then hung up the phone with a faint 'hmm'.
Bai Xiao sat on the sofa for a while holding her cell phone. The office door clicked open. She turned around and saw Yu Shaoting coming back.
Behind him was Yang Xi, who seemed to be talking about something. When he saw Bai Xiao, Yang Xi smiled politely at her.
Seeing that they seemed to have business to discuss, Bai Xiao stood up knowingly: "You guys go about your business first, I'm going home."
Yu Shaoting raised his head from the document and looked over. His deep black eyes fell firmly on her face. In front of Yang Xi, she felt that his eyes were unconcealed and too naked. Bai Xiao's face shuddered.
He stretched out his index finger and pointed towards the door, and said in a somewhat awkward manner: "You can get a taxi downstairs, no need to send it away."
"...Let Jing Xing drop you off and call for a taxi." After he finished speaking, he turned his attention to those documents.
Bai Xiao saw that he was really busy, so he didn't hesitate and walked out of the office. Jing Xing was already waiting at the door. When he saw her, he immediately came over to please her.
"Hello, madam."
Bai Xiao was amused by his "flattery" look, and saying "ma'am" made her feel like she was pretending to be powerful, but... the effect felt very good.
After entering the elevator, Bai Xiao asked Jing Xing: "How long have you been following Mr. Yu?"
"It's been five or six years," Jing Xing answered truthfully.
"Mr. Yu, are you sending someone to follow me and report my whereabouts to him from time to time?" Bai Xiao suddenly asked in a confused manner.
Jing Xing was so frightened that he widened his eyes slightly: "Why do you think so? That's not surveillance, it's a way of protection."
But he also admitted in disguise that Yu Shaoting did find someone to monitor her before.
Bai Xiao nodded clearly. Jing Xing was afraid that she would misunderstand. When the elevator opened the door, he explained as he walked out: "At that time, Mr. Yu was afraid that you would not adapt to Hongyuan, so he asked me to invite a former Hongyuan employee.
My friend at work will look after you, and since you work in a bookstore, I hired Xiao Zhao to help you."
Bai Xiao let out a long "Oh" and looked at Jing Xing with deep meaning: "It turns out that Xiao Zhao is too..."
Jing Xing: "..."
——————————
When Bai Xiao got into the taxi, she sent a text message to Yu Shaoting, telling him that she was leaving. However, she didn't wait for his reply, but she did wait for a call from Yu Jingxi's head teacher.
When she hurried to the primary school, she saw Yu Jingxi standing in the corner of the office with a few friends.
Compared with other classmates, the little guy is younger and his physical development is not as good as others. He is short, has a round face, white and tender skin, and big eyes that are particularly bright. He looks around, and there are a few small wounds on his face and clothes.
It was stained with mud and grass roots, and you could tell at a glance that someone was involved in a fight.
The head teacher, Teacher Yu, was talking to a tall boy with his head lowered. Obviously, it wasn't Yu Jingxi's turn yet.
Bai Xiao stood at the door and knocked on the office door: "Teacher Yu."
Teacher Yu had met Bai Xiao several times. Perhaps because she was the parent of Yu Jingxi, the little troublemaker in the class, she was particularly impressed and immediately greeted Bai Xiao.
Yu Jingxi could not help but poke his head around.
Bai Xiao just sat down, glanced at the little guy in the corner, and asked Teacher Yu: "What did Jing Xi do again this time?"
When Yu Jingxi heard this, he immediately rolled his eyes, but did not refute, and stood obediently at the end of the line in the corner.
Perhaps because of the presence of parents, Teacher Yu's attitude improved a lot. He explained Yu Jingxi's recent performance at school in detail. Finally, he took out an unopened family planning product from the desk drawer and pushed it to Bai Jingxi.
Xiao Qianqian: "I found this from Yu Jingxi's drawer."
Bai Xiao: "..."
From a teacher's perspective, this is not the worst thing. Just now, Yu Jingxi took the lead in a group fight and beat up a senior classmate.
"Now, the other party's parents are here too and are in the office upstairs."
Bai Xiao nodded in cooperation and straightened his spine: "Don't worry, I will go and apologize in person later."
When Yu Jingxi heard Bai Xiao's words, she curled her lips secretly, puffed out her bulging belly, and turned her head away to express her dissatisfaction.
Teacher Yu took another paper box from under the table and opened it. Bai Xiao found that there was actually a deck of Pai Gow inside, and her temples suddenly jumped.
…
Bai Xiao led Yu Jingxi out of the office and walked ahead on his own. The little guy scratched the base of his ears and followed her step by step.
"Are you angry?" He turned sideways and looked at the expression on Bai Xiao's face as he walked.
After walking around a corner, Bai Xiao stopped, turned around, and looked at the slightly embarrassed child: "Why are you so good, fighting with others, and gambling."
The little guy wrinkled his face and explained: "That card, Wu Liaoming's family owns a chess and card room, and he brought it specially for us to see."
"Then what about fighting with others?"
Yu Jingxi pursed her lips and remained silent. Bai Xiao took his hand, which was fleshy and wet with sweat: "Follow me upstairs, apologize and then go home."
"No!" The little guy snorted: "I didn't do anything wrong, so I won't apologize."
Bai Xiao later realized that she had forgotten to ask Teacher Yu the name of the other child's child. She wanted to go upstairs, but Yu Jingxi held her legs firmly: "Don't go either."
At the other end, the sound of high heels came from the stair step. Bai Xiao turned around at the sound and happened to catch Jiang Yingmei's eyes.
…
Jiang Yingmei, who was originally holding her bag and preparing to go downstairs, unexpectedly met Bai Xiao here again, looking embarrassed. She didn't know whether to walk down or go back upstairs.
"How can there be such a arrogant child? He doesn't do anything lightly." On the second floor, a young woman pulled a child with a bruised nose and face down.
Seeing Jiang Yingmei standing on the walking platform, she asked in confusion: "Sister-in-law, why don't you leave..." Then she turned around and saw Bai Xiao at the entrance of the corridor on the first floor.
The child immediately pointed at Yu Jingxi beside Bai Xiao and shouted: "It's him, he's the one who beat me!"
…
Bai Xiao didn't expect that the person Yu Jingxi beat would be Jiang Yingmei's nephew. She had met this nephew before and was a naughty boy. She didn't expect that he was also studying here.
Hearing the child yelling, Bai Xiao couldn't help but frown, and then heard the child call her crisply: "Little cousin!"
Almost as soon as the words came out, his mother covered his mouth and whispered: "What are you yelling for? Come home with me quickly."
The child screamed, looking straight at Bai Xiao, as if to say - I admit it right, this is my little cousin-in-law.
Bai Xiao directly pulled Yu Jingxi and said, "Let's go."
"Aren't you going to apologize?" the little guy asked knowingly. Bai Xiao patted his butt: "Let's go."
After getting into the taxi, Yu Jingxi crossed her chest with her hands and leaned back like a grown-up. She turned her head and squinted at Bai Xiao. Seeing that her expression was as usual, she leaned over again and said, "Why don't you ask me why you want to fight with him?"
Bai Xiao asked in a dignified manner: "Why?"
"I met him in the bathroom after class. He took my seat first and said that my father had taken his brother's wife. I thought he went too far. You are obviously my father's wife, so I beat him!
"As he said that, the little guy pointed to a small wound on his face: "Look, he even scratched me."
Bai Xiao wanted to say, why didn't you tell me that you beat someone into a pig's head, but when he met the little guy's caring eyes, he touched his head: "Does it hurt?"
"It's okay." Yu Jingxi sat back and muttered matter-of-factly: "I wonder if there will be any scars..."
——————————
When he got home, Bai Xiao twisted a hot towel and pressed it on Yu Jingxi's red and swollen forehead. The little guy grinned, deliberately exaggerating his expression.
"The towel is too hot?" Bai Xiao quickly took the towel away for fear of scalding him.
Yu Jingxi sat on the sofa, swung his legs, and peeled a lychee: "It's not bad, just be gentler."
Bai Xiao asked him to lie on his lap and took a cotton swab to clean the scratched wound on his face. The little guy folded his hands on his chin and suddenly sighed: "I found that Teacher Yu has a very deep prejudice against me."
"If it were me, I would probably have a lot of prejudices against you." Bai Xiao retorted him unceremoniously.
Yu Jingxi was unhappy and sat up. Just as he was about to give this woman with her elbows turned out a good reminder, he suddenly saw her take out a small box from her pocket and drop it on the tea table. He recognized it at a glance.
The teacher took it from his drawer and heard Bai Xiao ask: "What is this?"
He rolled his eyes and said, "It looks like chewing gum."
"..." Bai Xiao felt that he needed to educate him: "Where did it come from?"
