Countdown to the ending [6] Yu Shaoting will never give him a confession
She is almost four months pregnant, and now and then, on a whim, Bai Xiao will lift her shirt and look in the mirror to see the changes in her belly.
Maybe she is thinner, her belly is not too protruding, and her weight has not soared like other expectant mothers.
After Qin Shousheng made the call, he made a special trip to see Bai Xiao, carrying a bucket of lobsters in his hand. He heard that he caught them by the pond yesterday.
Before Qin Shousheng left, Bai Xiao asked him about Ye Hehuan's situation. After all, it was because of her that the two of them were involved. Qin Shousheng laughed, with a twitching expression, and waved his two lean arms: "Reply
When we got home, her old man read the newspaper and intercepted the person directly at the airport check-in desk."
As for He Huan's family background, He Huan is not very willing to talk about it, and Bai Xiao naturally doesn't dig out other people's secrets, so he knows very little.
Qin Shousheng and Ye Hehuan have known each other since childhood. Ye Hehuan came to Fengcheng to seek refuge with Qin Shousheng before he met Bai Xiao again.
"Don't worry, it's nothing serious," Qin Shousheng patted Bai Xiao on the shoulder, twisted her waist, sang "You are my little little apple", and walked away gracefully.
Aunt Li just happened to take a single quilt and come downstairs.
"Mr. Xu used these last night. The weather is nice today, so I thought of washing these."
Bai Xiao looked at the dark bed sheets, thinking about Xu Jingyan who had left early in the morning. She went upstairs and stopped when passing the guest room. The door was ajar. She went in and sat down by the bed. She touched the lines of the bed mat and felt in her heart.
Even she herself couldn't tell what she was thinking.
Aunt Li suddenly called Bai Xiao downstairs, saying that the security guard outside the community called and that an old lady wanted to come in to see Bai Xiao.
Old lady? Bai Xiao’s first reaction was grandma, but grandma still injured her leg and couldn’t come to Fengcheng.
Aunt Li covered the phone and told Bai Xiao: "Say he's a relative of yours."
Over at the Xu family, Xu Hongyang's wife had passed away a few years ago. Bai Xiao couldn't think of anyone who would claim to be her grandmother. She just wanted to tell Aunt Li to ignore it, but after hearing what the security guard on the other end of the phone said, Aunt Li added to Bai Xiao
One sentence: "She said her surname was Pei."
…
Bai Xiao walked to the gate of the community and immediately saw Mrs. Pei sitting on her own bench, with Aunt Rong holding an umbrella in one hand and shaking a fan in the other.
Because of the words 'If she doesn't see me, I won't leave today', Bai Xiao was still forced out by Mrs. Pei.
Old Mrs. Pei was wearing a pair of flat ladies' shoes with buckle tabs and a good outfit. When she saw Bai Xiao, she put her hands on Aunt Rong and stood up. She raised her chin slightly and was about to go into the community, but Bai Xiao stretched out her hand to stop her.
She: "Dogs are not allowed in this community."
"Bai Xiao, your wings have grown hard, and you are talking to me like this?" Old Mrs. Pei's anger was like a firecracker being lit instantly, and she actually called her a dog!
Bai Xiao pointed to the Jingba being held by Aunt Rong, which Mrs. Pei had recently bought: "Except those raised by residents, no strange things can be brought in."
…
Old Mrs. Pei wanted to enter Qinyuan Community, but Bai Xiao was obviously unwilling to let her go home, so she finally led the dark-faced Old Mrs. Pei to a nearby coffee shop.
When ordering drinks, Bai Xiao ordered a cup of Dian black tea for Mrs. Pei.
"It's rare that you still remember." Mrs. Pei's face softened, and she looked at Bai Xiao across from her with a deep look.
Bai Xiao didn't answer, but what she thought was a common thing had another meaning in the eyes of Mrs. Pei. After the tea was served, Mrs. Pei took a sip and said slowly: "I know, these years,
You have a lot of resentment in your heart, and it's normal to have emotions. I thought about it before coming here."
Bai Xiao put down the milk cup and raised his eyes to look at the high-profile old lady Pei.
Mrs. Pei blew away the tea stems from the water in the cup. She raised her drooped eyelids and glanced at Bai Xiao: "You have been going around with Qi You for so many years. Based on his conditions, how many bosses have you had in the past five years?"
His daughter came to him, but he didn’t divorce you. Later, you two broke up, and Qi You didn’t settle down to live with your sister. You should know why he is like this, right?"
"I don't know." Bai Xiao said, unceremoniously dismissing Mrs. Pei's words.
Mrs. Pei's expression changed.
"Similarly, I don't know why you came to me to say these things." Bai Xiao turned the cup and said calmly: "At the beginning, it was your Pei family who wanted to draw a clear line with me. If you still come here today,
Warn me not to pester your grandson, don't worry, you will never see this scene for the rest of your life."
Mrs. Pei's old face turned red and she was angry at Bai Xiao's words.
Bai Xiao: "Also, the Xu family is the Xu family, and I am me. I have never thought about getting anything from the Xu family, and I will not do anything with the Xu family's first name."
After so many years in the Pei family, Bai Xiao has come to know Old Mrs. Pei well, so every word she speaks seems to be ripping out the flesh and blood in Old Mrs. Pei's heart.
Bai Xiao's cell phone rang at this time.
In front of Mrs. Pei, Bai Xiao answered the call. It was from Yu Shaoting: "I'm at the coffee shop next to the community. Well, I'll be down soon."
After hanging up the phone, Bai Xiao stood up: "My husband wants to go home for dinner, so I won't see you off."
Ignoring the stunned old lady Pei, Bai Xiao walked to the counter, paid the bill, and then went downstairs.
…
Bai Xiao was about to open the door of the coffee shop when it was opened first. When she heard the waiter say "Welcome," she looked up and saw Pei Qiyou coming in.
Seeing him here, Bai Xiao was surprised for a moment.
The expression on Pei Qiyou's face showed that he knew in advance that she would appear here, and he just looked at her without moving his slender legs.
The door opened again, and the sound of high heels sounded behind him.
"Qiyou?" A woman's soft voice came next, completely unfamiliar and did not belong to any woman in Pei Qiyou's past.
Then Bai Xiao saw a young woman standing next to Pei Qiyou. She was dressed elegantly, intellectually, and very temperamental. However, her appearance had nothing to do with beauty. She was at most delicate and in her mid-20s. After she came in, she naturally held her arm.
Pei Qiyou's arm, she was stunned for a moment when she saw Bai Xiao.
The woman originally wanted to speak, but because Bai Xiao was present, she wisely shut her mouth and nodded to Bai Xiao.
Bai Xiao also nodded to her, then passed them both, opened the door and left the cafe.
——————————
The woman turned her head and watched Bai Xiao leave, then pulled off Pei Qiyou's sleeve: "Didn't you say your grandma is here? Let's go up."
The two went upstairs and saw Mrs. Pei still sitting in the booth.
Seeing the woman next to Pei Qiyou, the old lady's face suddenly darkened. When the other person greeted her, she just gave a perfunctory hum.
"I remembered that my father asked me to go to the company at noon, so I left first."
The woman was thoughtful and realized that Mrs. Pei didn't want to see her, so she took the initiative to say goodbye and refused to let Pei Qiyou see her off: "I can just take a taxi myself."
After the woman left, Mrs. Pei also started to have a fit: "Why are you with this woman? Not only is she older, but she's also divorced, so what if her family background is good? You can't choose someone like this if you don't choose!"
"No, those friends you know are just introducing you to such a woman. Later, you call her and tell her that you have no interest in her and ask her to stop pestering you.
Mrs. Pei said and urged her grandson to make a call.
"Don't come looking for her again in the future." Pei Qiyou suddenly said, and the 'she' in his words naturally referred to Bai Xiao.
Mrs. Pei pursed her lips, unhappy to hear such words. Pei Qiyou continued: "She has nothing to do with our family anymore and doesn't owe us anything."
"It's okay? When she ordered me tea just now, it didn't seem like it was okay."
Mrs. Pei felt that Bai Xiao still liked Pei Qiyou, and being with Yu Shaoting was purely an act of anger out of an unbalanced heart. Thinking of the divorced woman just now, although her family background was good, compared with the current Bai Xiao, she was very different.
: "You should admit your mistake to Bai Xiao. Once she understands it, she will——"
Pei Qiyou stood by the window. He saw downstairs, Bai Xiao stood on the roadside for a while. A black Range Rover drove over and stopped. She got into the passenger seat. The sun reflected on the windshield of the car. He looked at it.
Not knowing what was going on inside the car, I watched the Range Rover enter the high-end community next to it.
He withdrew his gaze and listened to Mrs. Pei's words without making a move. Some things were no longer in his power.
When Pei's business had some problems, he knew very well that Yu Shaoting would never give him the possibility to confess in front of Bai Xiao.
——————————
Bai Xiao was a little surprised when Yu Shaoting suddenly came back for lunch at noon. As for the meeting with Mrs. Pei, she didn't mention it to him.
Because I feel that this topic has no value worth discussing.
Yu Shaoting originally had a dinner party, but when he was about to go out, he didn't want to go. He just found a reason and let the vice president go, while he drove home.
He was sitting in the living room, holding the remote control in his hand. He turned around and saw Bai Xiao in the kitchen, helping Aunt Li cook. Her voice sounded very happy. He was watching an unknown program on TV and suddenly felt
It was pretty good, so I just watched it without changing the table until Bai Xiao brought out the dishes.
After eating, Yu Shaoting didn't stay long and went back to the company.
Bai Xiao walked him to the door. Before he got in the car, he glanced at the villa behind her: "If you feel bored, go to the bookstore or the courtyard."
"Okay." Bai Xiao smiled, and after he got in the car, he waved towards the car window.
…
On the way to the company, Yu Shaoting received a call from Yu Zhanming. As soon as he pressed the answer button, the old man's angry voice came out.
"Tell me honestly, did you throw dirty water on me again in front of your mother?"
Yu Shaoting drove the car, and his answer sounded particularly perfunctory to Yu Zhanming: "...What can I say."
"You didn't say? You didn't say that everyone in the family now knows that I was the one who couldn't help you, so she had no choice but to marry another man?! And everyone called me to accuse me, Yu Shaoting,
Well done to you, you bastard!"
"..."
Yu Shaoting allowed the old man to vent his anger. When the other party said he was tired and stopped to take a breath, he spoke: "This is just a temporary measure."
"So you're just going to blame me?"
Yu Zhanming was very angry. Not only was he misunderstood by his grandson before, but this time, the blame in the family was pointed at him. He opened his mouth to explain, but it became a sophistry. Not to mention keeping a straight face, he was called cold-blooded and ruthless, and in the end he simply pulled out the phone line.
, lock yourself in the office and see no one.
"Someone needs to stand up for this matter. She is thin-skinned——"
"How dare I have such a thick skin?" Yu Zhanming's temper rose and he said to himself, "Why don't you stand up yourself?" At the end, he snorted: "I'm going back to Fengcheng tonight. Don't show up in front of me. Why don't you show up in front of me?"
You have your wife and children, none of them should come."
Before hanging up the phone, Yu Zhanming emphasized again: "Even if you all come, I won't give you a good look."
——————————
After Yu Shaoting was hung up by Chief of Staff Yu, the black Range Rover drove into the company's underground parking lot. Before getting out of the car, he called Bai Xiao.
Ask her to go to the compound after picking up Jing Xi in the evening, and he will go directly there after get off work.
Bai Xiao knew the rules of the Yu family. For a few days a month, the whole family had to eat together.
But counting the days, it’s not today.
The explanation Yu Shaoting gave her was just one sentence: "The old man misses his grandson. If he comes back today and doesn't see Jing Xi, he will probably get angry."
…
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Bai Xiao went to a small door and picked up Yu Jingxi.
The little guy had a bar on his shoulder. When he saw Bai Xiao, he pretended to say casually: "Today's class meeting re-elected the group leader."
"So, you were elected?" Bai Xiao smiled, not hesitating to praise: "It seems that your performance in school has been really good recently."
Yu Jingxi hummed and strode ahead. Seeing that she was lagging behind, he walked back and complained: "Women with big bellies are trouble!"
Bai Xiao touched his little head, but did not take him back to the compound immediately. He called Mrs. Yu and learned that Yu Zhanming hadn't arrived home yet, so she took her child to get a haircut first. The bangs had already covered Yu Jingxi's eyes.
The weather was getting hot again, and she was worried that her long hair would affect her vision and cause prickly heat.
As soon as he sat on the swivel chair in the beauty center, the little guy became dishonest again and flipped through a hair magazine to get his hair permed.
"This..." The little fat finger pointed at a pear-shaped head, "I think my face shape is very suitable for this-"
Before he finished speaking, Bai Xiao had already taken away the magazine without even looking at him. He only said to the barber: "Try to cut it like a six-year-old child."
Half an hour later, Yu Jingxi jumped off the chair and walked to the sofa. He looked at Bai Xiao with his big dark eyes and pouted his little mouth. He was as dissatisfied as he wanted. Bai Xiao looked up from the magazine and saw that he was all dissatisfied.
The bangs and clean hair look like a cute and cute watermelon.
Yu Jingxi was not very satisfied with this hairstyle, but seeing her happy look, her anger subsided a lot. She pursed her lips and followed Bai Xiao with a groan, following suit, and waited until she paid.
One child and one child left the beauty center.
The sentry at the gate of the compound almost didn't recognize Yu Jingxi, who had cut her hair and looked more like glutinous rice balls. She couldn't help but take a few more glances.
The little guy raised his head high, pointed his nostrils at others, and then walked in with his schoolbag on his back.
——————————
Bai Xiao held Yu Jingxi's hand, and at dusk, with the sun setting in the west, they walked along the tree-lined avenue.
A car slowly stopped next to it. The driver's window was lowered. Bai Xiao turned her head. She recognized him as an orderly from the Yu family.
She glanced at the back seat, thinking she must be picking up Yu Zhanming from the airport.
Yu Jingxi had let go of Bai Xiao's hand, opened the door of the back seat, climbed up skillfully, and entered uninvited. Facing Yu Zhanming's somewhat dark face, he shouted sweetly: "Grandpa, why did you come back? I wonder
Damn you."
When Yu Zhanming heard this, he couldn't keep his face straight. He just looked up at Bai Xiao with a bad expression.
Bai Xiao didn't know where he offended Yu Zhanming. He thought it was because of the Yizhou Weekly report, so he called "Dad" and didn't dare to do it again after getting in the car.
After arriving home, Yu Zhanming put his hands behind his back and went back to the study without saying a word.
Mrs. Yu was very happy to see her daughter-in-law and grandson. She took Bai Xiao's hand and said with a smile, "That's it, old man. Don't take it to heart."
Bai Xiao took the inkstone he just bought and touched Yu Jingxi's feet. The little guy ate the grapes and pretended not to see her hint and was too lazy to go upstairs.
…
Yu Zhanming was practicing calligraphy when there was a knock on the study door. He probably guessed who it was, so he ignored it and the door opened automatically.
Bai Xiao didn't say much, and put the inkstone next to the desk. Yu Zhanming glanced at it, snorted, and continued writing on his own.
A long time passed.
"Dad, I'm going out first."
Just as Bai Xiao turned around, Yu Zhanming seemed to say casually: "Mr. Xu had a physical check-up yesterday, and the hospital got the results today, saying he has late-stage gastric cancer."
