Not long after Bai Xiao returned, the doorbell rang.
He thought that Jimo Lei had dropped something, so he opened the door and said, "Why is he back, did he fall …"
Wen Shaoqing stood at the door and was silent for a while, "I, I came to see you, how have you been recently?"
He extended his hand out, wanting to check on Bai Xiao's wound. Bai Xiao inadvertently turned his head to the side, and laughed as he cut in, "It's almost done.
"Xiaoxiao, I'm sorry." Wen Shaoqing was startled for a moment, and retracted his hand.
"It's really nothing. It's all in the past now." Bai Xiao waved his hand and comforted her.
Hearing this, Wen Shaoqing felt even worse, "It's been a while since we've been safely discharged, and you've never come to take a look. Now that I think about it, you don't even have the chance to hug him."
Bai Xiao looked at him, not knowing how to reply, "How is your safety now?"
Wen Shaoqing thought about how she was safe, her chubby little face had a smile that she loved to laugh about, "He, he is so sturdy now, he laughs everyday. When you have time, come and see him at home."
"Is that so? "I wonder what Peace looks like now …" Bai Xiao stopped here.
Wen Shaoqing knew that she had thought of Luo Ling, "He was safely staying with me in the new garden, and there were only the two of us in the house. With Zhang Ma, you can come and see him anytime."
After Bai Xiao heard this, he smiled: "En, I miss him too, I want to see him before I go on a business trip."
"Yes, you are his mother. You can come anytime." Wen Shaoqing nodded.
Now that Wen Shaoqing had said this, Bai Xiao believed that he was willing as well.
Wen Shaoqing asked about Bai Xiao's recent life, and when he heard that Bai Xiao was the only one who kept his mouth shut, he became more and more depressed.
"Recently, you have been living happily with Jimo Lei." Wen Shaoqing laughed bitterly and looked at Bai Xiao.
Bai Xiao could see his disappointment, but she also knew that the two of them could no longer return.
It wasn't easy for her to start a new life. She didn't want to get entangled with the Wen Family anymore, and she also didn't want to be chased and cursed by Luo Ling ever again.
She laughed, and her words were filled with gratitude towards Jimo Lei, "Hmm, recently he has been guiding me on how to find a job, and how to answer the questions on the interview, he has indeed helped me a lot."
"Well, you have your own business and it's good." Wen Shaoqing saw her happy look, and replied honestly.
"Ran Ran is going to have a holiday soon. When do you have time? Our family should get together. It's been so long, we haven't really spent time together." Wen Shaoqing suggested.
"Hmm, okay, I also have this idea." Bai Xiao replied with a smile.
The two of them were like a pair of ordinary friends, speaking of the most ordinary topics.
Only they themselves knew that their hearts were already filled with raging waves.
They were clearly in love, but for various reasons, they could not continue to be together. What should they do to maintain the most basic of dignity?
Wen Shaoqing sat for a short while before he prepared to leave.
When Wen Shaoqing saw Bai Xiao, who had stood up to send him off, it became even more bitter. When they were about to reach the door, Wen Shaoqing could no longer hold him and hugged him tightly.
Bai Xiao was suddenly hugged in his embrace, and after being shocked for a moment, he relaxed. Wen Shaoqing's voice sounded by his ear, "I miss you."
"Xiaoxiao, I missed you." Wen Shaoqing kept repeating the same words.
"Alright, alright." Sensing Wen Shaoqing's weakness, Bai Xiao said that it was fake. She reached out and wanted to pat his back, but she didn't do so even after a long while. "Alright, you still have to work today, right? Go back quickly, don't be late. "
Wen Shaoqing did not make a sound. He let go of Bai Xiao and gently pushed away Bai Xiao's bangs, then looked at the wound on her forehead with a pained expression, "Does it still hurt?"
Bai Xiao looked at her as if he was coaxing a child, "It stopped hurting long ago, don't worry."
Wen Shaoqing lightly touched her wound, "I promise, I won't do it anymore."
Bai Xiao did not expect Wen Shaoqing to say that, and he did not know what to say. "En, I understand, let's go."
After Wen Shaoqing left, Bai Xiao sat on the sofa for a long time by himself.
She had to admit that Wen Shaoqing's arrival had greatly affected her. The moment she saw him, she almost immediately gave up all her perseverance and followed him back to the Wen Family.
She reached out and touched the wound on her forehead. She smiled wryly.
