City B, Chu Residence.
Ever since she received Qi Song's call, Ye Xi seemed to have become a different person. She started to eat happily, using all of her strength to smile every day.
She promised him that she would be fine until he came to pick her up.
Therefore, not only did she want him to be good, she wanted the child in her to be good as well.
However, she would still sit on the swing and stare at the path in a daze. Her eyes were moist, but there was a faint smile on her face.
"Mommy." Ji
ian sat beside her.
Ye Xi turned his head to look at him, and gently caressed the lid of his pot. "What's wrong darling, is it too boring?"
Having been locked up here for almost five months, for children, it wasn't completely boring.
Ji
ian shook her head and placed her white and fat hands on Ye Xi's bloated stomach, saying, "So big."
Ye Xi held his hand and laughed softly, "That's right, it must be a little fat paper."
"Ah?" "Why?" Ji
ian looked at her, puzzled.
"Because when you were the same age as her, Mommy's stomach wasn't that big." Ye Xi pinched his cheek.
Ji
ian blinked his eyes, "But isn't it my little sister? Fat sister? "
The brain of Ji
ian's shoes revealed the shape of a meatball, he immediately took a breath, and pulled back his little hand, looking a little disdainful.
Ye Xi was speechless, "Aren't you still fat? Can't your little sister be cute if she's fat?"
Ji
ian thought for a moment, then tentatively reached out her small hand, gently stroking Ye Xi's stomach, "When I was young, being fat didn't matter much, but when I grow up, I can't be fat, I would be despised by others."
Ye Xi couldn't help but laugh as he watched Ji
ian discuss things with his little sister in a proper ma
er.
It was laughable that even the softest part of his heart could not help but reveal a hint of bitterness.
The soreness in her eyes made her want to cry.
"Third Sister-in-law ?"
Suddenly, a slightly anxious male voice came from the front.
Ye Xi's body stiffened, his eyes suddenly became wet, as he could not believe what he had heard.
"Third Sister-in-law."
With the voice, a tall figure quickly approached her.
The black shadow above his head was like a tight net, at that moment, Ye Xi almost couldn't breathe.
Slowly raising his head, when the black shadow above his head entered his eyes and it was Qi Song's face, Ye Xi suddenly raised his breath, and stood up from the swing. With red eyes, he looked at Qi Song excitedly, "Qi, Qi Song, you guys, you guys came back? He ? What about him? "
Ye Xi said, and anxiously avoided Qi Song, and quickly walked forward.
However, when he reached the end of the path, he found that there was no trace of the man.
Ye Xi held back her tears and turned to look at Qi Song, "Is, is he still behind?"
When Qi Song saw Ye Xi's appearance, pain was hidden in her peach blossom eyes as they swept across her bulging lower abdomen.
Clenching his fists with great difficulty, Qi Song slowly walked to Ye Xi, "Third Sister-in-law, Third Brother did not come."
"?" Ye Xi opened his eyes wide, and droplets of tears fell from the corners of his eyes.
Qi Song could not bear to see her tears. Gritting his teeth, Qi Song forcefully pulled at the corners of his mouth, his smile deliberately pulled out a relaxed curve, but it was extremely clumsy, "Third Sister-in-law, what are you doing? Third Brother was just delayed for a bit, so I came to pick you up. Sigh, Third Sister-in-law seems to be very disappointed to see me and even cried. Tsk tsk, look at this glass of mine. "
"..." Did he ask you to come and pick us up? " Ye Xi immediately reached out to wipe her tears, and said anxiously: "Then what are we waiting for, let's go."
Saying that, Ye Xi looked towards Ji
ian and extended his hand out, "Darling, let's go."
Ji
ian walked over obediently and held Ye Xi's hand. She raised her small head and looked at Qi Song.
Qi Song's emotions were in a mess. He bent down and carried Ji
ian, and lovingly rubbed the lid of his small pot, then looked at Ye Xi and said, "Third Sister-in-law, don't you need to bid farewell to Mr. Chu?"
Ye Xi's long eyelashes lightly flashed, and she slowly turned her head to look at Chu Lingtian, who was standing not far behind her at some point in time, as her lips trembled twice.
Ye Xi still walked towards Chu Lingtian.
Standing in front of Chu Lingtian, Ye Xi was unable to describe what the various emotions were ru
ing through his mind. It was a little astringent, a little bitter, and even a little sour.
Looking at Chu Lingtian, Ye Xi softly said, "Uncle, I'm leaving. To see him. "But I will come back. Please take care of my mother."
Chu Lingtian's black eyes were calm, but deep within his eyes, there were surging waves. "Take care!"
Ye Xi did not know why, but his eyes quickly began to swell and ache.
Pulling on the corner of his clothes with all his might, Ye Xi suddenly let go of Chu Lingtian's hand and hugged him when he was caught off guard. Before he could even react, Ye Xi turned around and walked out of the small path without looking back.
Chu Lingtian stood rooted to the spot as if he was struck by lightning.
His grave and stern face trembled almost imperceptibly. Meanwhile, the black eyes that he had hung down were already as scarlet as blood.
He seemed to have heard the moment Ye Xi hugged him, and said something ?
Her soft voice, as she brushed past him, grew clearer in his ears.
He heard her, she called him... Daddy!
Chu Lingtian abruptly closed his eyes, reached out and ruthlessly rubbed his eyes, but the scarlet redness in his black pupils was scattered across his eyes.
He would never forget this day!
Even after he had broken her heart, she would call out to him.
How precious it was to him!
His daughter was still willing to acknowledge him, so what else was there that he wasn't satisfied with?!
That's enough, isn't it?
Before being carried by Qi Song onto the private plane, Ye Xi didn't ask why he wasn't returning to the Fragrant City Apartment at all, but rather asked why he was cooperating very quietly.
When Qi Song joked with her, she could smile back at him.
Everything seemed as if she hadn't noticed the strangeness of the situation at all.
Eleven hours later, the plane arrived at the French airport.
Once he stepped out of the airport, Ye Xi was firmly strangled by the oncoming black figure.
"Young Sister-in-law ?" When Huo Jianjia opened his mouth, his voice was choked with sobs.
Ye Xi's eyes moistened the moment she opened her mouth.
Both of Ye Xi's hands mechanically patted her back. He looked over her shoulder and saw Lu Jingxing standing in front of a black car, dressed in a black fine suit with simple black pants.
It had been almost a year but he was still as cold as ever, as if the moment he got close to her, he would be unfortunately frozen into an ice cube.
"Daddy." The first to run to Lu Jingxing's side was Ji
ian.
Lu Jingxing gently opened his long arm, bringing Ji
ian's fat little body into his embrace.
At this moment, the usually reserved man actually surged with emotion as he continuously kissed Ji
ian's little brows and cheeks softly.
"Do you miss dad?" Lu Jingxing's clear and cold voice was slightly hoarse, a trace of softness appeared in her cold eyes as she looked at Ji
ian.
The corners of Ji
ian's eyes were red as she pouted. Her fat arms were wrapped around Lu Jingxing's neck, and the little man asked in an aggrieved tone, "Daddy, do you not want Ji
ian anymore?"
He held it in his throat, lowered his head, and once again tenderly touched Ji
ian's forehead with his forehead. His voice was pleasant and hoarse, "Ji
ian will always be father's son, this point, will never change because of anything, Ji
ian, you must remember this point."
Ji
ian stared at Lu Jingxing for a good while, as if he was confirming the truth in his words.
After a long while, Ji
ian finally let out a sigh of relief and made a crisp grunt of agreement.
Lu Jingxing smiled lightly and hugged him with one hand.
Her cold eyes carried a shallow softness as she looked at Ye Xi who was slowly walking towards him. Her other arm slowly opened, "Songsong, come."
Ye Xi had held back his tears for a long time as they flooded forward like a flood.
Ordinary people only needed a minute to get there, but she walked for three minutes.
Just as she walked in front of Lu Jingxing, she was embraced by the long-armed gentleman. The warm big hand was like an intimate brother patting her back gently, "Thank you for your hard work."
Ye Xi shook his head.
Lu Jingxing sighed and let go of her. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped her tears, creasing his handsome eyebrows lightly, "I've never seen you cry like this before."
Ye Xi bit her lips, pushed his hand, and turned to look at Huo Jianjia and Qi Song who were behind him, "Let's go."
Huo Jianjia's eyes turned red, he became quiet and reserved, and extended his hand out to support Ye Xi's arm.
Qi Song walked to the front of the car and opened the door of the car.
Ye Xi took a deep breath and could not wait to get on the carriage.
Huo Jianjia and Qi Song looked at each other, seeing the complex emotions in each other's eyes.
Lu Jingxing looked at Ye Xi who was sitting inside the carriage and anxiously looking at the few of them, his brows knitted even tighter, as he placed Ji
ian into Qi Song's embrace, "Get in the carriage."
