The baby pursed his lips, his two small eyes shining brightly like a child's. The baby nodded, a little embarrassed, and her face reddened, "I think uncle is a good person." Although he rarely saw his uncle and didn't chat with him, he hadn't even seen his mother have any other friends.
"Baby, uncle and mom have nothing to do with each other. Can you please stop mentioning it in the future?"
She pulled her wrinkled coat and hat back against her neck, and the baby rolled his innocent eyes wide, and when his mother said something about his uncle for the second time, he said obediently, "Okay, Mom, I'll never mention my uncle again."
"Baby! Mother's good son! " She held the baby's head and kissed his thin cheek.
"Um... "Mom." The baby blushed slightly and lowered his head shyly.
She made a soup noodle for the baby and put the baby in the room to watch the cartoons. She took the bowl down the stairs and heard something, without even thinking about it, and knew it was him. She didn't even look up, just walked quietly into the kitchen with her eyes lowered.
He was dressed in casual attire when he came out. He sat by the table and said in a cold tone: "Come over and have breakfast."
Bai Jinxi looked up and saw that he was expressionless. He pursed his red lips: "No need, just eat, the baby is up there alone, I'm going up." Five years had passed, but unexpectedly, there was not a single trace of him to be found. He sat there expressionlessly, as if he was a cold-blooded and cruel man from before.
Jiang Lingchen snorted lightly, "I won't say it a second time."
Her heart skipped a beat as she paused. He was not a patient person. He had no patience for anyone, not even for her. Lowering her eyes, she slowly walked to the table and sat down opposite him. She picked up the chopsticks on the table, picked up the noodles that were already somewhat cold, and fed them to her own mouth.
It wasn't very tasty. Perhaps because it had been left for a long time, the noodles were sticky and cold. The taste was also a bit strange.
Fortunately, her stomach was empty and she had eaten half a bowl of noodles.
He sat in his seat, flipping through the newspaper with an easy grace, his face impassive and silent.
Unable to eat, she stood up and prepared to dump the rest.
Jiang Lingchen swept her with his cold gaze: "Finish it."
Other than bullying the weak, Bai Jinxi only pursed his greasy lips a little and sat back down on his seat, propping his stomach up as he finished the last mouthful of noodles.
It was not easy for him to hold on to a whole bowl of noodles, and when he stood up, he felt uncomfortable. After walking a few steps, his voice came from behind him. "How was it?"
Bai Jinxi was startled for a moment, then slowly turned around and bumped into the pair of ice-cold eyes that did not contain any emotion.
"Being my lover for three months, if I get tired of you in advance, I'll let you go. The money isn't a small part of yours."
Bai Jinxi was silent and did not speak. He put down the newspaper in his hands and stared at her indifferently with his hawk eyes: "Answer me."
She pursed her lips and lowered her head, not looking at him. "Mr. Jiang, I do not need money, nor do you have the authority to imprison me."
Jiang Lingchen laughed coldly: "Your character hasn't changed one bit."
Bai Jinxi still did not speak, and when he heard the light smile in his voice, he slightly raised his eyes and looked at him.
"Wu," Jiang Lingchen said with a smile that was not a smile, "I'm just changing people, is it really that hard to accept?"
He had always spoken in such a way that he did not care for the feelings of others and used the most direct method to hurt people thoroughly. She didn't even blink as she loosened her teeth and said in a calm voice, "Mr. Jiang, when will you let me go with baby?"
Jiang Lingchen followed up with her words: "You're more interested in me than the girls who come out to sell, and it's even free. Such good stuff, why should I let you go?"
She held her breath, listening to his harsh words, her heart sinking to the bottom of the chasm. She clenched her fists, her white fingertips gripping the bowl, her feet heavy as lead, her throat so hoarse she could not speak.
In the end, she chose to face the situation in silence like a camel. She walked away from the living room with an expressionless face.
She went back to her room. The baby was watching cartoons with a pillow. Seeing her in a daze, she sat on the bed and worriedly called out, "Mommy —"
Bai Jinxi, who was in a daze for a while, finally realised that her son, who was sitting on the bed, was looking at her with an innocent gaze. Mother will watch it with you. " Mom smiled very beautiful, the baby felt this way, also beaming, repeatedly pulling the mother together to look at the baby.
Bai Jinxi watched her continuously for an entire day, even eating three meals on the bed. He was happily chatting about cartoon characters and he did not echo her as he did during the day. She lowered her head in suspicion and saw that the baby's hands were wrapped around her waist, she had fallen asleep at some point in time.
She stared blankly at the baby's childish sleep for who knows how long. When the door creaked open to reveal the key, she frowned. There was no one else in the villa but him. No one else would step into this room.
She got out of bed and ran to the door, her hand ready to press the loose lock on the doorknob. His face was grim.
Bai Jinxi looked at him warily: "What are you doing, we're going to sleep."
Not long after she had showered, she was wearing only a cotton nightgown that revealed her graceful, curved neck. There was a faint fragrance of shower dew on her body. The only thing he remembered was that night half a month ago.
Jiang Lingchen, who was one head taller than her, looked down slightly. His cold gaze swept across her faintly discernible snow-white body, and ridiculed: "In the middle of the night, a lone man and a single woman, other than that, what else can you say."
Bai Jinxi pursed his lips, his body took two steps back, and his arms unconsciously wrapped around his body. Jiang Lingchen, you can't! "
The corner of Jiang Lingchen's mouth twitched, and his long legs stepped forward: "I insist."
He was just like that. He felt that everyone had to listen to him. He raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he had guessed she would do so. He quickly stepped back and locked the door behind him.
The next second, he realized that he had fallen into her trap, and as he was about to close the door, she dashed for the bathroom door, and before he could curse, she ran after him from behind with a grim face. She was too small and small to be his opponent, and in the blink of an eye she was being violently lifted up by him, with one hand under her arm and the other around her waist.
She anxiously used her hands to pull at his palms that were tightly wrapped around her waist and shouted: "Jiang Lingchen, let go!"
He only sneered. The force of his grip caused her waist to ache. She gasped from the pain.
His grip tightened, and she felt pain and panic as she stretched out her foot to kick him. He reached out and grabbed her leg.
It hurt, he was more than 180 feet tall, and his elbows cracked against the ground.
She ignored the contortions of her little face, and as she crawled and prepared to run away again, she grabbed her legs with one hand and pulled her to him. She pulled her body with the other and beat him with her fallen hand, but the force of it was not painful or itchy to him.
Her resistance infuriated him, and he pushed her so hard against the wall that his great chest fell on top of her.
He wrapped one of her legs around his waist, folded her hands, and twisted her like a shrimp.
With a pull of her hand, the clothes on her body fell to the ground.
"No, don't! Jiang Lingchen, let me go, okay …"
