In those days, although he and Bai Xiao were having a lot of trouble, the wedding ring was always worn on his ring finger.

The female model was also a pretentious person and insisted that he wear a men's ring to match her. Bai Xiao was nearby at the time. Although he was impatient, he took off his wedding ring and placed it on the deck next to him, wearing the wedding ring.

Pretending to be intimate with the female model.

Bai Xiao stood quietly aside, holding two bath towels, without saying a word.

When the cruise ship docked, it did not stop. It tilted to the left, and even the wedding ring on the deck fell into the sea.

At that moment, he saw the indifferent mask on Bai Xiao's face cracked.

"What should I do? The ring fell in!" The female model pretended to hum, "It couldn't be from one of you, right?"

How did he respond at that time?

He put his arm around the female model's waist and pinched her cheek: "*? Isn't my* you?"

Without taking another look at Bai Xiao, he took the female model off the cruise ship.

He didn't see Bai Xiao at the company the next day, and later learned that she fell ill after returning from overseas. She had a high fever and took a week's leave.

He never asked Bai Xiao what he did after that day, and he was not as indifferent to the wedding ring as it seemed. Several times when he was sleeping, he thought about salvaging the ring, but every time he woke up from the dream,

He was thrown away again.

Bai Xiao looked at Pei Qiyou's dazed look and knew that he had remembered.

"Those pains cannot be forgotten just by forgetting them. When did you become so whimsical?"

Pei Qiyou frowned. Under the bright light, his brows were clear and clear, less angry and more painful.

Bai Xiao turned away, "Can you still find the ring? If not, what else can we say?"

——————————

Bai Xiao received a text message before going to bed.

"I'm on a business trip tomorrow. Jing Xi and I will pick you up on Saturday and we'll have dinner together at the East Palace - Yu Shaoting."

Bai Xiao lay on the bed and looked at the signature at the end of the text message. Her mind wandered a little, and then she calculated that Saturday was the day after tomorrow.

——————————

When Yu Shaoting returned home, Aunt Li had already gone to rest, and a wall lamp was lit in the corridor on the second floor of the villa.

He changed his shoes, took off his coat and went upstairs. He happened to bump into Yu Jingxi who came out of the bedroom with his eyes closed.

Yu Jingxi's small bedroom did not have a separate bathroom. If she wanted to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, she had to go to the bathroom in the corridor.

Yu Jingxi was wearing the warm suit, with curly hair on her head, her mouth slightly open, her eyes closed, and staggering out of the bedroom with bare feet. She went to the bathroom next to her with her senses, then peeled off her pants and faced

I peed in the toilet, and my eyes never opened even a crack from beginning to end.

After peeing, Yu Jingxi let out a sigh of relief, then pulled up his pants and walked out in a daze, walking past Yu Shaoting.

Yu Shaoting did not go back to his room immediately, but followed Yu Jingxi into the small bedroom.

When Yu Jingxi crawled into bed and fell asleep, Yu Shaoting sat down beside him and looked at Yu Jingxi's rosy little face with the help of the weak desk lamp light. His eyebrows and eyes were completely a miniature version of Bai Xiao's. It took him a long time to stand.

He got up and took a piece of hair from the pillow before leaving.

——————————

In the morning, Yu Jingxi went to the dining table, scooping out the cereal in the milk bowl with a spoon and playing with it on her mobile phone.

Yu Shaoting's eyes moved away from the newspaper and fell on the face of his delighted son: "Why don't you concentrate on breakfast?"

Yu Jingxi glanced at her father and said beautifully: "Right now, I'll send a good morning message to Xiaobai."

In the past few days, after Aunt Li's teaching and his own research, Yu Jingxi has been able to use some simple words to send text messages.

Suddenly, Yu Jingxi looked up at Yu Shaoting: "Dad, has Xiaobai been looking for me on WeChat recently?"

Yu Shaoting glanced at him and turned his attention to the financial section of the newspaper again.

After the father and son finished breakfast, one put on his hat and carried a big schoolbag to prepare for school, and the other carried a trolley suitcase to prepare for a business trip.

"Dad, when will you come back this time?" Then calculate how many days you can stay at Xiaobai's house...

Yu Shaoting seemed to have read through his thoughts, "If you don't want to be disliked by her, you'd better know how to measure yourself, and don't be like a dog-skin plaster."

Yu Jingxi hummed twice and grabbed the strap of her schoolbag.

After Yu Shaoting got in the car and left, Yu Jingxi immediately shouted while going upstairs: "Aunt Li, help me pack my clothes!"

But this time, before he rushed to Bai Xiao's house with his small suitcase, he was picked up by Mrs. Yu who came out halfway after school.

——————————

In the next few days, apart from posting her resume online to look for a job, Bai Xiao basically spent the rest of the time going to Pei's house to see her grandmother.

In fact, she wanted to take her grandma out to live with her, but Jiang Yingmei and Mrs. Pei were very firm in their attitude, and they really treated grandma as a distinguished guest.

Going to Pei's house is inevitably an encounter with Pei Qiyou.

Men who used to be homeless began to appear in front of her frequently, even if they did not communicate verbally.

On Friday, Bai Xiao went to Pei's house to visit her grandmother as usual.

When Jiang Yingmei cut an orange for Zhou Aihua, she accidentally cut her index finger, which caused blood to flow out.

Bai Xiao looked everywhere for band-aids, but to no avail. However, Aunt Rong reminded her: "There is a spare medical kit in the young master's room. There may be some in it."

Pei Qiyou's room was also their new home back then, but she had never slept in it for a night.

Five years later, Bai Xiao stood at the door of this room again, feeling as if she was in another world.

She pushed the door open and went straight to the cabinet to get the medicine box. The medicine box was actually prepared by her for Pei Qiyou a few years ago. Of course she knew exactly where it would be hidden. The gauze curtains in the room were closed and the light was dim, like

No one has lived there for a long time.

There was a group photo hanging on the wall above his head, which was of the two of them. The smiles of the two people in the photo suddenly became very dazzling. Bai Xiao looked away, squatted by the cabinet, opened the drawer to get the medicine, but there was no

I found the medicine box, but it was an exquisite peninsula iron box.

Bai Xiao did not open it. On the contrary, he immediately closed the drawer as if there was a savage beast inside.

When she stood up and turned around, she saw Pei Qiyou standing at the door of the room at some point.

"Why don't you open it and take a look?" He asked, staring at her with his dark eyes.

"Isn't that necessary?" Bai Xiao turned away and looked for the medicine box: "Where did you put the medicine box?"

Pei Qiyou looked at her steadily and did not answer for a long time.

Bai Xiao was too lazy to continue searching. She walked past him and was about to go out, but Pei Qiyou reached out and held her.

"Let go." Bai Xiao turned her head and looked at him.

Pei Qiyou's raised Adam's apple moved, and his eyes looked at her a little slowly, but he still let go.

————————————

Coming out of the room, Bai Xiao felt that she was in a bad mood.

She didn't put a band-aid on it, but Pei's mother's bleeding had stopped and she was wrapped with a piece of gauze.

Bai Xiao made an excuse and left Pei's house without having dinner. When she left, Pei Qiyou stood on the second floor watching her back.

It's rare that he didn't catch up.

On the way back, Bai Xiao saw a Minion poster in front of a movie theater and remembered that she still owed Yu Jingxi a decent gift.

After asking the driver to stop the car, she walked around a nearby shopping mall, and finally bought a Minions pencil case and a set of warmers with Minions printed on them.

As soon as she got home, Bai Xiao's cell phone rang. It was Yu Jingxi's exclusive number.

Bai Xiao put down her shopping bag and pressed the answer button: "Jing Xi, are you okay?"

"Oh, I just wanted to ask you, did you forget that we made an appointment to have dinner together tomorrow night?"

Bai Xiao looked at the child he had just bought, and listened to his soft and waxy voice, and felt better: "I didn't forget, I prepared a gift for you."

"Is it for me?" Yu Jingxi almost jumped up from the sofa, but because of the man next to him, he still said calmly: "Thank you, Xiaobai."

A note was handed over on the coffee table.

Yu Jingxi glanced at the man who was leaning back on the sofa and reading a magazine. He read the contents of the note carefully: "Xiaobai, have a good meal tomorrow. Can I go to your house in the evening? I have homework and I can't do it. You

Can you teach me?"

"Where is your father? Can't he teach you?"

Yu Jingxi's eyes rolled, "My dad is very busy, he may have to work overtime tomorrow night!"

"Why don't you come home again on Sunday? It's not convenient to go back at night."

Yu Jingxi almost blurted out, "Then I can spend the night at your place," but when she saw the look in the man's eyes, she immediately complied.

After hanging up the phone, Yu Jingxi looked at Yu Shaoting unhappily: "Dad, why didn't you tell me in advance that you and Xiaobai had made an appointment to have dinner tomorrow night?"

Yu Shaoting closed the magazine, got up from the sofa, and ignored his son's accusatory questions.

Over there, Mrs. Yu has prepared dinner, and General Staff Yu and Chief Yu also came out of the study.
