"It must be your ex-husband who couldn't bear to see you seducing men outside, so he simply married the daughter of the Yu family to retaliate against you!"

Everyone in the corridor could hear the accusation made loudly by the lady in charge of the Xia family.

The informed Xia family looked like they were watching a good show, but Fu Min's expression changed. She didn't know about Bai Xiao's past, but she still retorted immediately: "This is the Xu family's business, it's not your turn yet."

If you have time to make irresponsible remarks, you might as well mind your own affairs first."

"Are you guilty?" The hall sister-in-law looked at Yu Jingxi, who was protected by Bai Xiao, mockingly: "I still don't know whose seed this is."

Bai Xiao first saw that Yu Zhanming was at a loss, then unexpectedly heard that the Xia family started to involve the child. He could no longer care about anything else. Just when he was about to refute, over there, behind the Xia family, someone said: "Chief, I asked the nurse

, the person you are looking for should live in the front ward."

The people who were still arguing in the corridor all turned around when they heard the sound, and saw Yu Zhanming and another secretary in military uniform.

"Grandpa!" Yu Jingxi rushed to Yu Zhanming from behind Bai Xiao, hugged Yu Zhanming's leg, and called him "Grandpa" flatteringly.

Bai Xiao wasn't sure how much Yu Zhanming had listened to what the Xia family just said. He was worried, but he still said hello to him: "Dad."

Yu Zhanming raised his head, glanced at Bai Xiao, looked at the Xia family members calmly, and frowned slightly: "Doesn't the hospital need to be quiet at night?"

Whether she was worried about Yu Zhanming's status or was intimidated by his black face and aura, the Xia family's hall sister-in-law wisely shut up and left with the other Xia family members.

As soon as the Xia family left, Fu Min came over to greet Chief of Staff Yu: "Are you here?"

"Which room does your sixth child live in?" Yu Zhanming asked Fu Min, touching the back of Yu Jingxi's head. There was nothing strange on his face.

However, Bai Xiao was sensitive by nature and still noticed Chief of Staff Yu's alienation from her.

Because Yu Zhanming came, Bai Xiao no longer rushed to take Yu Jingxi back to the hotel, but followed Fu Min back to the ward. On the way, Fu Min took the initiative to talk about what happened in the corridor just now: "What is the Xia family doing now?"

That’s what I said, but there’s no basis for it.”

Unexpectedly, Yu Zhanming, who had always had a sullen face, suddenly snorted and directly blocked Fu Min: "Flies don't bite seamless eggs."

"..." Fu Min was embarrassed for a moment.

Yu Zhanming snorted again, without looking at Bai Xiao or Fu Min, and asked his secretary to lead the way. As for Yu Jingxi, he was holding his hand tightly all the time.

Fu Min deliberately took Bai Xiao's hand, walked a few steps behind her, and softly comforted her: "The old chief probably felt uncomfortable after hearing what the Xia family said. Please explain it to him later."

"...I have been married." Bai Xiao admitted frankly: "What she just said is true."

Fu Min couldn't believe it. After all, Bai Xiao was so old and had such a big son with Yu Shaoting. How could she marry another man?

——————————

The ward door was ajar, Bai Xiao opened it, and Yu Zhanming was sitting on the sofa, with his hands on his knees, sitting upright, talking to brother Xu Jingyan.

As for Yu Jingxi, he was watching Hu Yaning peeling the grapefruit eagerly.

Bai Xiao stood at the door, not knowing whether to walk in or out. The phone rang at exactly this moment.

It was from Yu Shaoting. Bai Xiao left the ward and walked for a while before pressing the answer button: "...Hello?"

"..." There was no sound on the other end.

Bai Xiao thought he accidentally pressed the wrong button, so he called the phone a few more times, but still didn't get a response. He was about to hang up the phone——

"Still in the hospital now?" Yu Shaoting's voice suddenly came from the receiver.

A hanging heart was temporarily relieved, and Bai Xiao said "hmm": "What about you? Are you home or outside?"

"...Guess what." He must be in a good mood and would talk to her like this.

Bai Xiao knew that he had been busy all day, so he didn't want to tell him what happened to the Xia family just now. He just asked him to rest early: "Also, I may have to stay in the capital for two days. When his condition stabilizes, I will

go back."

She did not forgive Xu Jingyan, but she still felt an indescribable feeling in her heart when she saw him staying in the ward without a lover or children to take care of him.

…

After making the call, Bai Xiao stood at the door of the ward for a while. Just as she was about to turn the doorknob, the door opened from the inside. She looked up and saw Yu Zhanming.

"Dad." Bai Xiao called him.

Yu Zhanming didn't respond. When he turned to face the others, he felt the warmth of spring again: "No need to send it off, the secretary is waiting below."

Bai Xiao stepped aside, Yu Zhanming glanced at her sideways, put his hands behind his back, and left.

Yu Jingxi walked out of the ward carrying a peeled grapefruit. When he saw Bai Xiao, he complained: "Where did you go just now? No one was there."

Yu Zhanming, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and told Yu Jingxi to walk faster and not to dawdle.

"Grandpa said, go home and sleep with him tonight." Yu Jingxi felt helpless, stretched out his little hand and patted Bai Xiao's leg: "Don't delay, hurry up and leave."

Bai Xiao still thought about Yu Zhanming's expression as cold as winter when he saw her. She felt that Yu Zhanming should just ask Yu Jingxi to go back to sleep. As for her, I'm afraid she can't see out of sight at the moment. After hesitating for a while, she gritted her teeth and said,

Shamelessly, he pulled Yu Jingxi to follow him.

When they got downstairs, a military-brand car was parked outside the inpatient department. Yu Zhanming had already sat in the back seat with the window half-down.

Yu Jingxi opened the back seat door, climbed in with her little butt stuck out, and spread out her hands and feet to occupy half of the seat.

Bai Xiao stood by the car door without moving. Yu Zhanming turned to look at her. She immediately pointed to the passenger seat and said, "I can sit in the front."

Yu Zhanming: "..."

Seeing that he didn't speak, Bai Xiao took it as his acquiescence. He opened the car door and got in. He smiled and nodded at the secretary who was driving: "I'm sorry to bother you."

The old man let out an angry snort from behind.

——————————

As the car was driving halfway, the secretary suddenly said: "Chief of Staff, you haven't had dinner yet. Do you want me to find a restaurant nearby?"

"Dad, haven't you eaten yet?" Bai Xiao turned around and asked with concern.

Yu Zhanming turned his head away from the car window, but the secretary answered: "Yes, the chief has been very busy these days. I heard that General Xu's sixth son was injured, so he came here to visit after work today."

When the secretary said this, Bai Xiao felt even more guilty. Yu Zhanming sneered from behind: "I'm so angry, how can I eat?"

"Dad, if you don't mind it, I'll go home and make it for you -"

“Very disgusted!”

Bai Xiao: "..."

No matter how much Yu Zhanming sneered, she still asked her secretary to go to a nearby supermarket. Before getting off the car, she turned to Yu Zhanming and said, "Dad, I'll be back soon."

"I'll go too." Yu Jingxi opened the car door and got out.

Yu Zhanming looked at the mother and son entering the supermarket through the car window, and heard the secretary laugh and say: "Chief, your daughter-in-law is so considerate, even the children are close to her."

"...You're still considerate, just don't make me mad."

…

In the supermarket, Yu Jingxi lay on the shopping cart and turned to Bai Xiao, who was choosing ingredients: "Have you made grandpa unhappy again?"

But Bai Xiao only asked the supermarket staff and had no time to answer him. The little guy curled his lips, looked around with a hum, picked a lot of food and threw it into the car.

The two of them came out carrying a large bag of things, and the military sedan was still parked there.

Bai Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Her secretary had already gotten out of the car and came over to help her carry her shopping bags. When she got in the car, she turned back to Yu Zhanming and said, "Thank you, dad."

Yu Zhanming pursed his lips and ignored her.

——————————

The place where Yu Zhanming lives has not changed much since when Bai Xiao came last time. The secretary carried the ingredients to the kitchen before going back.

Bai Xiao thought to himself that Yu Zhanming didn't eat, and as a secretary, he probably didn't either, so he took the initiative to leave the secretary to eat: "I bought a lot of vegetables just now."

"Why are you so embarrassed about this?" the secretary smiled, and just as he was about to agree, he heard a thick cough coming from the living room.

Yu Zhanming got up from the sofa and went straight upstairs.

"I suddenly remembered that my family had left some food for me, so I have to leave first." After the secretary finished speaking, he hurried away.

It was too late for Bai Xiao to try to persuade him to stay.

Yu Jingxi, on the other hand, took out his own snacks from the pile of ingredients, walked out of the kitchen with them, and glanced at the door: "We don't have much rice at home."

Bai Xiao tapped his forehead, asking him to do his homework, but found that his schoolbag was still left in the hotel.

…

There was a nanny at home, but Bai Xiao still cooked a meal by herself and asked Yu Jingxi to go upstairs and call Yu Zhanming down for dinner.

After a long time, Yu Zhanming went downstairs and sat down at the dining table. Bai Xiao handed over the chopsticks respectfully. He raised his eyelids and glanced at her, but he still looked unhappy.

Yu Zhanming only showed a loving expression when his good grandson spoke.

Bai Xiao had been standing nearby. Seeing that Yu Zhanming had finished eating, he remembered that he hadn't made tea for the old man yet. However, just as he was about to turn around and go to the kitchen, Yu Zhanming put down the bowl and chopsticks and stopped her too: "I'm not thirsty."

, sit down for me, I have something to ask you."

"Okay." Bai Xiao sat down next to him. Yu Jingxi just went to play with other children in the compound.

Bai Xiao probably guessed what Yu Zhanming wanted to 'ask' for, so he clasped his hands under the table and considered whether to explain himself or wait for him to interrogate.

"Tell me, how many things are you hiding from me?"
