When Bai Jinxi woke up, it was already noon of the second day. The villa was still quiet to the point that there was not the slightest sound, as if there were no other living beings other than her.
The pain in his body felt like it had been run over by a car. It was a familiar pain, but it was not the first nor would it be the last. There was no one on the bed beside him. There were only some marks of depressions, indicating that someone had once stayed there.
Bai Jinxi's hand powerlessly touched it, it was completely ice-cold, and not even a single strand of warmth could be felt. He could not help but laugh at his own foolishness. The reason why Jiang Lingchen was here, was forever to vent her desire, something like last night, was even less likely to happen, and he could even claim the reputation of extending a helping hand when she was in a difficult situation, but that kind of person, seemed to never change. After venting her anger, he would immediately withdraw his body, and there would always be a look of disgust on his face.
It was already time for lunch. Bai Jinxi knew in her heart that other than the children in this villa, there was no one else who would take care of her, so she had to take care of herself. Even though her body was so sore that she didn't want to walk, she had to force herself to go down to the kitchen and cook.
She went straight to the kitchen, washed a few dishes, and prepared to cook. In five years' time, she was no longer the carefree young lady who ate without any worries. In these five years, she had lived the lowest level of life, and while the children were starving, her body was getting worse and worse every day. The doctor had even warned her that if she continued to work like this, her body would collapse.
Thinking about this, her lips curled up into a smile. She thought that returning to this place would make life even more difficult, but she didn't expect that it would be like this now. Let her be optimistic a little bit, this kind of life wasn't bad, at least she would be able to nourish her body here, and her face would be full of blood. Was this a good thing for her and her child?
"It smells so good. Wow, Aunt Xiao Bai, you cooked it yourself? What did you cook? Why have I never seen it before? When Bai Jinxi placed the last dish on the table, there were already three boys surrounding her on the table. After being shocked for a moment, she quickly reacted and placed the plate on the table, and smiled at Fu You.
It was precisely because of this that those of them who had been with Jiang Lingchen for a long time would think this little dish was strange.
"I don't think so, this thing must be expensive, I'm not talking about its price, but its value. Even if it's a dish that is worth a few coins, it would be hard to buy it with a few coins in Aunt Xiao Bai's hands! Am I right? " She casually sat down on her seat, and after praising it for a while, she picked up her chopsticks and was about to start picking up the dishes.
However, before his chopsticks even touched something, it was snatched away by Lin Liyi, "Fu You, what do you count as? You think Aunt Xiao Bai cooked for you? I haven't eaten yet. When is it your turn? "
Looking at the two of them fooling around, Bai Jinxi suddenly started to reminisce. Five years ago, when they were still young, she remembered that they had also come into her life this way, and that they hadn't changed much in the past five years, and were still as cheerful and handsome as before. However, she clearly knew in her heart that no matter how innocent and handsome they were on the surface, or how childish they acted, they were always bloodthirsty.
"Where's the family chef?" A voice that didn't have a trace of warmth in it sounded. Bai Jinxi turned around after hearing it.
"They didn't know you were coming back. I was going to cook myself, so they had no choice but to follow me." She had a rough idea of what he meant, but if she didn't say anything good, the consequences for the family's chefs and servants would be obvious. Those were things she didn't want to see, not because she was great, but because she wanted her life to be more peaceful.
Seeing that Jiang Lingchen did not say anything, and only furrowed his brows out of habit, his eagle-like eyes stared at the few small dishes on the table. She thought, if he came back now, would he want to stay at home for lunch? Maybe he'd like to try her cooking? Thinking of this, she mumbled, "Have you eaten yet? "If not, do you want to stay..."
"Don't act on your own in the future." Before Bai Jinxi could finish speaking, Jiang Lingchen had already coldly interrupted her. He only heard her very quickly and meekly agree, and without looking at her submissive appearance, a trace of emotion that was hard to detect flashed past his black eyes. Quickly, he turned around and left.
"Brother, where are you going?" Haven't you eaten yet? It's not too late to leave after eating, right? " Han You did not regard himself as a guest at all, and shouted towards Jiang Lingchen's back.
"Shut up, or get lost!" He let out a sudden roar.
The people in the living room were so shocked that they didn't dare to make a sound. They held their breaths as they watched the stalwart figure leave.
Only after Jiang Lingchen left did Han You dare to whisper in a low voice, "Big bro's obviously in a good mood this morning. Ol 'Six lost a hundred million, but he just frowned and didn't scold him. How did he change his attitude so quickly?" After saying that, he looked at X suspiciously, "Or did I say something just now that made our brother angry?"
Lin Liyi turned his face away and ignored him. He only said in a cold voice, "Where did all this talk come from? Eat when you want, and cut the crap."
After saying that, Han You seemed to realize that Bai Jinxi was still around, and immediately smiled, "Aunt Xiao Bai, stop standing, quickly come and eat, your dishes are so fragrant that I'm almost going to drool … "Our bro has been busy these few days, so it's normal that he doesn't have time to eat. Don't misunderstand."
Bai Jinxi only faintly smiled, and did not say anything. He naturally sat down at the dining table and grabbed his chopsticks for food.
Was it because of her that he was displeased? Listening to them, his mood in the morning was clearly very good, but after coming here and seeing her, his expression immediately darkened. She did not know what mistake she had made that annoyed him, nor did she want to guess his thoughts. After experiencing so much, she was a person, so she would be tired.
Learn to let me go.
After lunch, she locked herself in her room. The window was closed and the lights were off.
Wrapping himself within the blanket, Bai Jinxi had a nightmare just now. In his dream, he saw his mother's appearance when she went mad, so he called her father and mother with a low voice, but he did not call out. In his dream, no matter how much he tried, he could not make a sound, and it was the same as when she was awake.
She was shivering under the blanket. It was clearly midsummer, but she was cold to the point that her hands and feet were cold. There was not even a little bit of warmth in her body.
After an unknown amount of time had passed, Bai Jinxi's blanket was roughly torn off by someone, she no longer had the strength to stop him, and could only allow the sturdy body that reeked of alcohol to suppress her, and tear off her clothes. With one hand, she swept away the sweat on her forehead to the back of her head;
He kissed her, hard, almost like he was biting her lips, hard enough for her to be afraid, but she didn't have the strength to fight him. She could only let his strong body press closer and closer against hers until there was no gap between them.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Lingchen finally came out of her body, took her pants and put it on before entering the bathroom.
The sound of water in the bathroom was gentle. Only then did she have some reaction. Her body was shivering, and her slim arms were supporting her as she slowly got out of bed.
There was no way to change their relationship any longer, it could only be like this. She silently picked up the clothes that had been thrown to the ground and slowly put them on before returning to the bed and pulling the blanket to cover her entire body. Only by doing so could she feel a little safe.
When Jiang Lingchen came out of the bathroom, what she saw was exactly this scene. The room was as quiet as when he had first entered, there was not even the slightest sound, everything was so dark that nothing could be seen, the windows were tightly shut, and the curtains were put down. If not for the fact that she still had a breath of life, he would really suspect that other than him, there were no other people here. What did she mean by that? Don't want to see him? Did she have the qualifications to do so? He was the only one who had ever hated her. He didn't have the qualifications for her to hate him!
"Don't forget who you are. You don't even have the right to throw a tantrum here!" Jiang Lingchen was so angry that he could barely contain himself as he charged forward and used his strength to grab hold of a corner of the blanket and forcefully pull off the blanket that was covering her!
