Xia Xinghen was about to tell him a “happy birthday” as a gift. But Bai Yeqing walked away without a word. He looked much colder than before.
How could he be mad again?
Why did he mind Xu Yan so much? Was that because she stood him up and missed his birthday?
Xia Xingchen sighed speechlessly.
They walked along together but he’s still mad. He was still aloof when Xia Xingchen sometimes tried to talk to him.
She stopped talking to him after being turned down for a couple of times. Then, she went ahead with the kid, leaving him behind with a cold face.
The hardest for Xia Xingchen was to understand this man. He’s obviously mad at her and tired of the crowds here. But why on earth did he keep following her?
Xia Xingchen arrived in the seafood area. Xia Dabai said he wanted crabs. So she bought some and planned to cook them tonight.
“Here you go.” The server handed her the packed crabs.
“Thank you.” Xia Xingchen held the paper bag in her hand.
“Aw!” She could feel the pain on her finger. Her bleeding finger was hurt by the crab in the bag.
“What’s wrong, Dabao?” Xia Dabai asked her worriedly.
Suddenly, Bai Yeqing rushed to her before she could even answer.
He grabbed her hand and looked at the bleeding finger. “Why are you still so careless?”
His scolding tone and the long face didn’t make her mad at all. She felt he warmed her up inside. “Nothing serious. Don’t worry.” She shook her head, as she said softly.
So Bai Yeqing stopped asking her and she took her hand back.
After all, he was not in a good mood tonight. Him being upset had affected Dabai’s mood directly.
Because…
When Dabai touched the chocolate on the shelf, he heard a cold voice, “No chocolate. Don’t you want your teeth healthy?”
So Dabai reached the second choice. The chips.
“No fried snacks. Also bad for your health.”
Sad as he was, he reached for the fast food.
“No junk food!”
He then grabbed a bottle of coke.
“No sodas!”
Xia Dabai couldn’t help crying. He hugged Xia Xingchen’s leg, crying with his eyes shining, “Dabao! Little Bai is bullying me!”
Xia Xingchen couldn’t bear his bright and shining eyes. Every time she saw this face, she wanted to offer him anything he wanted.
“……” Xia Xingchen couldn’t help him this time.
Xia Dabai was totally upset. “I won’t go shopping with Little Bai anymore!”
What an annoying dad!
He went to the cashier area mumbling.
Xia Xingchen tried not to laugh out loudly seeing this. This should have been a nice family shopping trip. But both of them went home upset. Fortunately, this wouldn’t happen every day, or she would have a bad headache.
A golden card had been given to the cashier before Xia Xingchen reached her purse. The card was a symbol of high status. People who have this card were all rich and powerful. So of course, the cashier was shocked seeing this card. She kept looking at Bai Yeqing.
His eyes were cold enough to kill people’s curiosity. The cashier looked away quickly and started to get on her own business.
Xia Xingchen was also looking at the card curiously. So no one knew Xia Dabai put a jar of candy into the cart secretly.
…….
Xia Dabai was tired after this family trip. Bai Yeqing held him in his arm and carried the huge bag with another hand, walking out of the supermarket.
Leng Fei had already waited outside when the three came out. He opened the door respectfully for them. And someone else came over, taking over the huge shopping bag.
Xia Xinchen also got in the car. Leng Fei would send her back. Though Xia Dabai was sleepy, he dares not to sleep in the car. He thought once he slept, dad must take him home.
Finally, they arrived. Xia Dabai followed Xia Xingchen getting out of the car.
“Dad, I’ll stay here tonight! Don’t take me home!”
Xia Xingchen held his little hand. She wouldn’t let him go. They thought he certainly would refuse. But he got out of the car together with them.
He told Leng Fei to wait downstairs. Then he grabbed the bag, heading to the elevator. Xia Xingchen was confused looking at him. What’s happening here?
……
Apparently Bai Yeqing didn’t want to leave after dropping off the stuff. He stood in front of the door for a while, seeing Xia Xingchen didn’t realize what’s happening, said, “Slippers.”
“Well, there’s no slippers for men. Just go barefoot.”
No slippers for men meant there’s no man ever came here like he did. Including Xu Yan.
This news brightened him a little and he walked in barefoot.
The tiny room was perfect for Xia Xingchen to live alone but the room suddenly turned smaller as Bai Yeqing walked in.
“Just sit for a moment. Dabai needs to go to bed. I’ll help him wash his face.”
“OK.” Bai Yeqing nodded and sat down on the sofa. He looked so elegant sitting there with his legs crossed.
Xia Xingchen forced herself not to stare at him. She took Xia Dabai to the bathroom.
“Dabao, will Little Bai sleep here tonight?” Xia Dabai asked as the door closed.
“Of course not.” Xia Xingchen answered quickly.
“Just ask him to stay. I want the three of us to sleep together. We’ve slept together before though.”
“No. Not now, not today.”
“What’s the difference?”
Of course, something had changed. Unexpected things like last night never happened before.
Xia Xingchen couldn’t think about that. She washed his hands carefully.

Xia Xingchen couldn’t think about that. It took her ten minutes to help him wash his hands carefully. She carried him out of the bathroom. But now Xia Xingchen couldn’t find Bai Yeqing in the living room.
She looked around and noticed his shoes were gone.
“Did Little Bai leave?”
“Well, I suppose.” Xia Xingchen replied softly. Carrying the kid into his bedroom, she covered him gently with a blanket.
She then subconsciously went to the door, opened it and looked outside. There’s no one in the corridor. She couldn’t help looking outside the window. His car was not there anymore.
It seemed that he’s really gone.
Xia Xingchen felt upset. Somehow she found herself ridiculous.
She tried not to think about it. Closing the door, she sat down on the sofa to clear up the stuff they just bought in the supermarket. Suddenly she noticed the stuff on the table.
There were two things left on it. Band-aids and scar gel.
………………
Xia Xingchen was deeply touched. Looking at the injured finger and her ankle, she felt warm inside. Apparently he bought those band-aids in the supermarket but she had no idea when he did it.
She put a band-aid over the cut and smeared her ankle with the gel.
She laid down on her bed after washing. Xia Dabai was asleep. Feeling she came, he moved his head into her arms. Xia Xingchen hugged him tightly and turned off the light.
“Dabao, did Little Bai really leave?”
“Yes.”
“Are you sure you won’t go back?” He whispered in a low voice. She could hardly hear him.
“Yes.” She answered softly.
“What if Little Bai feels lonely on his own?”
“Just sleep. Don’t worry. You still have class tomorrow.” Xia Xingchen tapped him slightly.
He fell asleep soon. But she couldn’t.
……
The next day…
Xia Xingchen cooked him a big meal. They couldn’t eat them up.
Xia Dabai sighed. “I wish Little Bai is here. He can help us finish this.”
Xia Xingchen didn’t think so. How could the president get used to what they eat for breakfast?
Xia Xingchen took him to wash his hands. But the faucet broke and water splashed over both of them. Dabai sighed again. “If Little Bai is here, he could fix it.”
Xia Xingchen knew what Dabai was planning by talking about Little Bai all the time.
She brought a towel and pretended to be angry. “If you say that name once more, you go to live with him and never come back.”
Xia Dabai stopped. “You two are no good parents.”
……
On the other side.
Yu Zenan had just come back to the country and didn’t want to get out of the bed. But his brother Yu Zeyao was mad. He just called him and wanted to see him in ten minutes. How dare he sleep? He woke up immediately and changed his clothes, drove there in his sports car.
Yu Zeyao was smoking in front of the window when Yu Zenan walked into the office. Though Yu Zenan lost the election, he’s still one of the most powerful person in this country. And he’s always the man who can compete with Bai Yeqing.
“Brother, what’s going on? Why do you wake me up?” Yu Zenan sat on the sofa and twisted himself, trying to find a good position to continue his sleep.
Yu Zeyao turned around and saw his lazy brother. “Sit up!”
Yu Zenan did so.
“Have you met Xia Xingchen recently?” Yu Zeyao asked.
Hearing this name, he felt kind of relaxed. “No, I spent half a month in the Philippines. How could I meet her?” Yu Zenan shook his head.
Yu Zeyao pointed at him directly. “You told me you can get her. You promised. How’s it going?”
“Well, I’m working on it. What are you worrying about? You have never been in a relationship, so you don’t know how to woo a woman. You have to slow down. No rush. Or you will lose her.”
What he said did hurt Yu Zeyao. He loved a girl terribly that he himself thought there must be something wrong with him. No matter what he did, she wouldn’t change her mind. How could he condescend for a woman? He had already lost his face.
“Slow down!” With a groan he exclaimed. “The result of slowing down is losing her! She’s taken?”
“By whom?” Yu Zenan thought for a while. “Her first love? That guy? I thought that guy was engaged.”
Yu Zeyao took a paper bag out of his drawer. “Look!”
“If it was that guy, you don’t have to worry. He’s not a strong…enemy.” The last word squeezed from his mouth.
Looking at the photo, he thought his eyes deceived him. He was completely shocked.
“Is this photo produced by Photoshop?”
This was apparently a candid picture. The place was on a bus. And he didn’t want to talk about what they were doing.
The man with Xia Xingchen was not the first love guy at all. It was…
Bai Yeqing!
All Yu Zenan could believe was that this picture was photoshopped. But if this was really photoshopped, his brother wouldn’t show it to him.
“I never thought they could…be together.” Yu Zenan recovered from the huge shock. He couldn’t believe Bai Yeqing was the guy and the picture was so…attractive. He had left here for only half a month. How could they come to this? They didn’t even know each other when they encountered on the court.
