Chapter 203 from darkness to dawn
"Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi." Xu Yan gave Bai Xi a push.
Bai Xi regained his senses and looked at Xu Yan blankly.
"Are you okay?" Xu Yan asked worriedly.
Bai Xi still looked at Xu Yan in a daze.
What Xu Yan said, she didn't listen at all, as if she didn't understand. Her mind was still on the news that Ji Chenling was getting engaged to someone else tomorrow.
"What's wrong with you? It doesn't look normal. Don't scare me. You're not in love with Ji Chenling, are you?" Xu Yan asked carefully.
Bai Xi shook his head and stood up absent-mindedly. "I'll cut the watermelon for you."
Xu Yan looked at the watermelon on the coffee table. Didn't Bai Xi cut it already?
It was her first time seeing Bai Xi like this, as if she had lost her soul.
She followed Bai Xi into the kitchen.
Bai Xi didn't cut the watermelon, but stood in a daze with a knife.
Xu Yan saw the difference and comforted, "Xiao Xi, don't be sad. People like Ji Chenling are not the same world as us. Let's see. He's going to get married and have children."
"Oh." Bai Xi answered, looking at the knife in his hand, but he didn't remember what he was doing with it, and he put it on the shelf in a panic.
Xu Yan looked at her worriedly. "Ji Chenling is really charming, good-looking, rich and invincible. He has a good temperament and an outstanding demeanor. It's tempting to look at him, but he's in the sky. We're on the ground. We can only look up to him. Xiao Xi, you're smarter than us and more rational than us. You should understand. Don't be sad."
Bai Xi shook his head. His eyes seemed to be filled with the mistiness of autumn and the misty rain of may in the south of the yangtze river.
Xu Yan was even more worried. "Do you remember wang chunhua? When she went to Dubai with the Dubai rich, we all thought she was living a high life. What happened? I came back sick, so there's more than just good in the upper class. There's a lot of dirt. I don't think it's as good as working hard. At least we have food, clothing, and a comfortable life."
"I'm more worried about what happened to him than he was about to get married." Bai Xi said.
"Ah?" Xu Yan didn't react.
For a moment, Bai Xi could not explain clearly. He did not believe that ji chenling was a playful person.
"I've already made the bed for you. It's a little late today. Go to bed first. You can make things tomorrow." Bai Xi said softly.
"Oh, you should rest early too. Just get some sleep." Xu Yan looked at Bai Xi suspiciously.
Bai Xi went out and saw the watermelon on the coffee table. She remembered that she was going to cut the watermelon for xu yan. "Do you want watermelon juice? There's a juicer at home that can make watermelon juice."
"Okay, I'll take care of myself."
Bai Xi opened the far door. "You can sleep in this room. There's a bathroom in the room. You can take a bath."
Xu Yan made an ok gesture.
Bai Xi returned to the room and sat on the bed thinking.
Her phone rang, and she saw that it was Li Yang's. She stood up immediately and answered, "Smile, is Ji Chenling okay? He's been turned off all day, and the news says he's getting engaged to Deng Xueqi?"
"He's fine. He turned it off because he was meeting the president of Country h and was asked to turn it off." Li Yang explained softly.
Bai Xi was relieved.
He thought something had happened to him, that he had been kidnapped, or that something had happened.
"That's good." Bai Xi muttered.
"Xiao Xi." Li yang called her, "The news on the news is true."
"Hmm?" Bai Xi stared fixedly at the air in front of him.
"The engagement was decided very early, and this time, it was just the right time." Li Yang continued.
There was a brief blank in Bai Xi's head, but he could feel the pain in his heart more clearly than a twitch.
If Ji Chenling had to marry Deng Xueqi because she wanted to get through this crisis, she could understand and understand.
After all, Ji Chenling had fallen into someone else's trap and needed a lot of money to fight against the Ruihang.
Crisis public relations is also a last resort, or else the loss is too heavy.
But she couldn't stand the fact that he was already engaged to Deng Xueqi.
It seemed to deny all the feelings between them, so that all the subtle feelings were covered with false words, but it was just a game, not even a game of love.
Xiao Xi, if you still want to follow chen ling, he will treat you well. He told me he's comfortable with you, but he can't marry you." Li Yang advised.
Can't marry her? So that she could only be seen as a lover?
Tears rolled down her eyes. Bai Xi pursed her lips and tried to hold back.
Hold it until you clench your teeth... The blood vessels on your neck are clearly visible.
Scenes of meeting Ji Chenling flashed through his mind.
From the first time she saw Ji Chenling at the hotel, to the time they went to Hoi tong village together, to the time he pretended to be Xiao Ye to send grandma away.
These, in the cruel reality, are more like dreams, so unreal, so illusory.
Vaguely, she didn't even want to know if he had ever liked her for a moment.
"Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi." Li Yang shouted.
Bai Xi hung up.
I don't understand. I don't understand. It's like a flood coming at her.
She couldn't figure it out. She couldn't understand why Ji Chenling would provoke him when he already had a girlfriend who was getting married.
Every word he said, every thing he did, went into her heart bit by bit.
But now she felt as if she had traveled through time and space. What she knew, what she came into contact with, was not the real Ji Chenling.
She wanted to wait, she wanted to wait, for an explanation, for an answer.
Time passed minute by minute, from night to day, from darkness to dawn, from hope to despair...
In the end
He didn't call or text.
"Mom, mom." Tian Tian's baby voice sounded.
Bai Xi covered his aching heart and opened the door.
Tian Tian rushed over and hugged Bai Xi. "Mom, I can see you as soon as I open my eyes. That's great."
Bai Xi squatted down in front of Tian Tian and touched Tian Tian's little head.
Tian Tian had no wife, and there was no Dad, just her.
She can't fall down. What about her Tian Tian?
"Toothbrushes, toothpaste, towels, they're all in the bathroom. Tian Tian will brush her teeth and wash her face. Mom will make breakfast for you now. Besides, your aunt Xu Yan is still sleeping. Be gentle and don't disturb her." Bai Xi said softly.
Tian Tian covered his mouth and nodded cautiously.
Bai Xi went to the kitchen. Under his nose, it was wet. He wiped it with a tissue and had a nosebleed.
She pressed both sides of her nose.
"Xiao Xi, what's wrong? Why is your nose bleeding?" Xu Yan asked worriedly.
