Yu Jingxi has a little habit. Before he is about to lie, he always likes to roll his eyes around, letting people know at a glance that he is full of bad intentions. He pouted his little mouth, organized his words and was about to speak, when Bai Xiao suddenly
He said, "Don't lie, don't frame others, and don't pretend to be innocent."
"..."
The little guy rolled his eyes and glanced at Bai Xiao. After making sure that she was not really angry, he said flatteringly: "Do you like it? I'll give it to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, his chubby little palm was grabbed and slapped twice.
"Ah!" Yu Jingxi yelled twice, covering his red palms and moving his butt to the side: "You are doing domestic violence!"
Bai Xiao raised an eyebrow: "What did I just do?"
Yu Jingxi hummed and heard Bai Xiao say again: "Children should not take this kind of thing randomly, otherwise, I will tell your father."
"Do you think I'm afraid of Yu Shaoting?"
Bai Xiao pretended to go to get the landline phone: "Then I'll call your father now and tell him that you gathered a crowd to fight, gamble and buy -"
Yu Jingxi rushed over and snatched the phone away, unplugging the phone line at the same time, and ran upstairs with the landline phone: "I'm going to do my homework."
Bai Xiao looked down at the box of condoms, wondering where he got them.
Suddenly she felt a little funny, but as soon as the corners of her lips raised, she remembered Liang Huizhen's words: "Now that you are a mother, don't you understand the feeling of parents who long to see their children but can't get them?
"
Bai Xiao felt a little irritated, so she simply got up and went to the kitchen to make snacks to distract herself.
After a while, Yu Jingxi came down from upstairs again, holding a melon in his hand without peeling it. He gnawed the skin with his two front teeth and walked to Bai Xiao. He was short and couldn't see her on the counter.
What to do? He stood on tiptoe and poked his head: "Actually, I'm not very hungry."
"I'm not making this for you to eat." Bai Xiao said with disgrace.
Yu Jingxi pursed her lips and walked around the counter. After eating all the melon, she picked up the counter with her small hands: "That Jiang Zhiqi is really annoying."
Jiang Zhiqi is the nephew of Jiang Yingmei who fought with the little guy, and is also the son of her eldest brother after his second marriage.
Bai Xiao glanced at him and didn't stop moving his hands: "How can I mention him again?"
"I just hate him," Yu Jingxi pouted, and after a while, he looked up at Bai Xiao: "You will always be with your father in the future, right?"
"Jiang Zhiqi said that you like his cousin, but his cousin doesn't like you anymore, so you are with your father now just to make his cousin angry."
Bai Xiao put down the spoon, squatted down in front of him, and looked into his big black and clear eyes: "Would you rather believe what an outsider said than believe me?"
"I don't believe you either." The little guy muttered softly.
"Isn't that enough?" Bai Xiao patted his small shoulder, "Don't you want to have some snacks? Bring your bowl over and help you fill some."
Yu Jingxi ate the fermented rice balls and stood beside her with a bowl in hand, nagging like a little old man: "You have a younger brother in your belly now, so it's better to stay at home. I'll spend more time with you when I have the weekend off. Usually you
If you get bored, just call me and I will take the time to talk to my dad—"
"Stop it." Bai Xiao put the spoon on the little guy's mouth. He said "Uh-huh" twice and glared at her. She couldn't help but laugh.
After dinner, Yu Jingxi quickly took a shower, finished her homework, and ran to the master bedroom in her pajamas, offering to sleep with Bai Xiao.
"I'll go back when daddy comes." The little guy lifted the quilt and got in, patting the empty space next to him: "Why don't you come up quickly?"
Bai Xiao: "..."
——————————
It was almost nine o'clock in the evening when Yu Shaoting came back. He opened the door of the master bedroom, and Bai Xiao was sitting on the bed, with his sleeping child lying next to him.
She put Bai Xi's index finger on her lips and made a 'shush' gesture to tell him not to wake up the child.
Yu Shaoting took off his suit and threw it on the sofa. He pulled his tie and went into the changing room. When he came out with a change of clothes, Bai Xiao was already in bed. She hung his suit on the hanger and planned to take it for dry cleaning tomorrow.
, because there is a faint mixed smell of cigarettes and alcohol on the suit.
He had a social event in the evening, and Bai Xiao was afraid that he would only drink and hurt his stomach without eating, so he wanted to make him a midnight snack, but he stopped him.
"I just had something to eat in the hotel, you go to bed first."
When Yu Shaoting entered the bathroom, Bai Xiao did not return to the bed immediately. She saw his mobile phone on the bed cabinet.
When she walked over and took the phone in her hand, Bai Xiao hesitated for a moment, but in the end she clicked on the address book and found Xu Jingyan's mobile phone number. Before, because she didn't want to have anything to do with this person anymore,
She deleted all the numbers related to him.
The moment she pressed the dial button, she regretted it and wanted to cut it off, but the call was already answered.
"...Shaoting?"
When Bai Xiao heard Xu Jingyan's voice, she subconsciously wanted to hang up. She didn't understand why she was making this call. However, before she hung up, the nurse's scolding voice came from over there: "I didn't ask you to
Do you want to rest? You have a head injury, why are you still playing with your phone?"
"You've finished the IV drip, why didn't you ring the bell?"
Bai Xiao heard her own voice: "You are in the hospital, no one is taking care of you?"
"..."
She regretted the words as soon as she said them, but Xu Jingyan had already asked tentatively: "Xiaoxiao, is that you?" Before she finished speaking, a busy signal came from the receiver.
Bai Xiao looked at the phone that ended the call, and couldn't tell what it was like. Just as he was about to put down the phone, a call came in, and it was Xu Jingyan's number.
She picked up, and there was his voice eager to explain: "Xiaoxiao, I didn't hang up on purpose. Maybe I was too excited... I accidentally touched it with my finger."
"Yeah." Bai Xiao responded lightly.
Xu Jingyan didn't know what to say for a moment, but he was reluctant to hang up the phone. He could only find a random topic: "Is it raining in Fengcheng today?"
Bai Xiao heard the weakness in his tone: "How is your health?"
"It's okay, what can happen to me..." Xu Jingyan laughed: "As people get older, they are not as strong as they were when they were young."
Bai Xiao's chest was actually quite congested. Although she had a grudge against him, it was undeniable that she was also nervous and frightened when she heard that he fell from upstairs and injured his head. At this moment, when she heard him say this as if nothing had happened, she
His nose felt sore, and he didn't want him to notice anything strange: "It's okay, I'll hang up first."
The person over there seemed to be slow to react. After a few seconds, he quickly said: "Okay, you go to bed early."
After hanging up the phone, Bai Xiao felt regretful again, because her mood became worse at the moment. She stood by the window until Yu Shaoting came out from the shower.
Before going to bed, Yu Shaoting carried Yu Jingxi back to the small bedroom.
While lying on the bed, Bai Xiao rested on his arm and said, "I just took your cell phone and made a call."
"To whom?" Yu Shaoting stroked her long, silky hair, his voice lazily and slightly sleepy.
Although Bai Xiao was still reluctant to mention Xu Jingyan's name, when he heard him ask her, he still said: "In your office this afternoon, I answered a phone call and heard that he was injured, so -"
"He is an elder. It is right for you to call and care about him. Now he is planning to divorce, and he will be alone in the future."
"Yu Shaoting, your words sound like you are speaking for him." Bai Xiao spoke with a little bit of dissatisfaction.
He laughed softly: "Then what do you want me to say?"
"How do I know..." Bai Xiao then remembered another thing and asked him: "Did your parents read the report in the magazine?"
Yu Shaoting suddenly turned around, letting her lean into his arms, holding the back of her head with his big hands: "What has this head been thinking about all day?"
Bai Xiao was not in a good state today and forgot to call the compound. She was worried that Mrs. Yu and even Yu Zhanming would be affected because of her. Yu Shaoting hugged her and heard his low voice in her ears.
: "You will take these reports to heart."
"This kind of thing is incomparable to what they experienced when they were young."
Yu Shaoting looked down at her, knowing in her heart that she was still young after all. Even though she had been working for several years, she still couldn't calm down when it came to bearing the pressure of public opinion, or maybe it was because the report affected the people she cared about.
, so that she would be in chaos at that moment.
"If they really mind, do you think you can live so freely today?" Yu Shaoting kissed her forehead: "Go to bed early."
After hearing this, Bai Xiao shrank into his arms, wrapped her arms around his waist, and closed her eyes.
——————————
In the middle of the night, a call came in from Yu Shaoting's cell phone. Bai Xiao woke up when he went to bed. When he took the cell phone and went outside, she also sat up.
It didn't take long for him to come back.
Bai Xiao asked him: "It's so late, whose phone number is it?"
"Over there in the capital," Yu Shaoting sat by the side and looked at her without hiding anything: "Uncle Jingyan just started vomiting and felt dizzy. The doctor initially suspected it was a concussion." What he didn't say was that the Xu family wanted her to visit the capital.
Xu Jingyan: "I'm still undergoing examinations at the moment."
Bai Xiao's brain buzzed, and there was a brief blank: "He was on the phone with me just now."
"I'm just suspicious, maybe I ate the wrong thing." Yu Shaoting hugged her and softened his voice: "Go to bed first, they will call if there is news."
Bai Xiao lay back on the bed, and even if she snuggled in his arms, she couldn't fall asleep again.
It was almost early in the morning when I got a call from the capital, saying that it was confirmed that it was not a concussion, but that I had eaten unclean food for dinner.
When Bai Xiao woke up in the morning, she saw the thick dark circles under her eyes in the mirror. There were many things that she told herself not to care about over and over again, but the result was always out of her control. While having breakfast, she thought about it and told Yu Shaoting.
Own decision: "I want to go to the capital."
Yu Shaoting put down his chopsticks: "I have some things to take care of in the morning, so I'll go with you in the afternoon."
Bai Xiao shook his head, not wanting to delay his work, "I can just take the high-speed rail there by myself. There should be someone over there in the capital to take care of me."
After all, she also saw that the Xu family really wanted her to go there, so they would not let her wander alone in an unfamiliar capital.
Yu Shaoting did not agree immediately. Bai Xiao knew that he was worried about her being double now, so he repeatedly promised that he would pay attention to her safety. Finally, he agreed, but also made a request, asking her to take Yu Jingxi with her when she went.
In his words: "If anything happens, it's better to have someone to take care of you."
…
Yu Shaoting asked Jing Xing to book high-speed rail tickets for around nine in the morning, and he personally sent mother and son to the station.
"Didn't you say something happened in the morning?" Sitting in the passenger seat, Bai Xiao turned her head and asked him.
"It has been adjusted to the afternoon." Yu Shaoting answered a few calls at noon. She heard that it was employees from the company who came to ask about his work, and he gave very concise answers.
They went to the station and got their tickets, just in time to check in.
I don’t know what Yu Shaoting said to the ticket inspector. He also passed the security check, sent them to the train, and made sure they were seated at their seats before leaving the train.
As the high-speed train pulled out of the station, Bai Xiao turned around and could still see him standing on the edge. Next to him, Yu Jingxi opened the potato chips he had stored in his schoolbag and muttered while eating: "Whenever you have trouble, just leave it to me. It'll be fine."
Sometimes, I only care about my own leisure..."
Bai Xiao took out his mobile phone and sent him a text message: "Please pay attention to safety on the way back. I'll call you when I get to the capital."
…
When the high-speed train entered the Capital Station, Bai Xiao checked the time. It was past one o'clock in the afternoon. Before getting off the train, she sent a text message to Yu Shaoting.
When the mother and son came over, they dragged a trolley suitcase.
Yu Jingxi took the initiative to volunteer, holding the lever with both small hands, dragging the box that was almost up to his chest and leading the way for Bai Xiao.
As soon as Bai Xiao came out of the passage, he saw Xu Ruiling waiting outside. Next to him, there was an elegantly dressed lady. The two of them were looking inside.
