One Hundred and Thirteen I Hold You in My Arms Tonight (3)

"Forget it, it's not bad for this meal." He said it casually, but the center of her beautiful eyebrows wrinkled, I'm afraid this person is often too busy to eat.

When she lived in the Presidential Palace before, there were many servants at home, but she hadn't noticed these things.

"Wait here for a while, I'll cook some noodles." Xia Xingchen said as he took off his coat and hung it on a hanger beside him. "Soon, sit down and watch TV for a while."

"I've only eaten the dumplings you made, but I haven't tried noodles." He didn't refuse.

"My craftsmanship is not bad." Xia Xingchen said and walked towards the kitchen. While boiling the water, I took out the apron and put it on. I took an egg out of the refrigerator and knocked it into the bowl, stirring it with chopsticks.

Bai Yeqing turned on the TV and sat on the sofa.

There are variety shows on TV for entertainment. The Ministry of Culture has made some big moves recently. Bai Yeqing took a look at it. Each show is not vulgar and diverse. He switched the TV to the military channel, but the reports on the military channel were all very paediatric things only for the general public, and he didn't have much interest in watching it.

In the kitchen, the sound of pots and pans soon came, but his attention was attracted there.

The kitchen door was closed, and only from the window, she could see her busy figure. Bai Yeqing felt that these voices were much more interesting than those in the show, making him feel very warm and a little...satisfied...

In the past at the Presidential Palace, it was not a special case, and he would hardly set foot in the kitchen. Even if there is a sound, he will only feel noisy, and he never feels that there is such a feeling at this moment.

This week, when she was not in the presidential palace, he felt that the whole palace had become dead.

When he got home every night, he would subconsciously stop in front of her door. However, he was quite aware...there was no one in that room.

She was really fast. In less than ten minutes, she had come out of the kitchen with noodles. The noodles were also covered with a fried golden egg, with a ring of green onions sprinkled on the side.

"Can you eat green onions?" Xia Xingchen remembered this question.

"Well." Bai Yeqing walked to the dining table and sat down. Xia Xingchen took off her apron and put it in the kitchen.

When he came out, he was eating with relish. Xia Xingchen watched with relief.

Originally thought that these simple things, he would not be used to eating. But right now, it looks like he's adapting well.

"What are you doing standing?" Bai Yeqing raised his eyes, and her eyes met him, and he lowered his chin to the chair opposite, "Sit down."

Xia Xingchen sat opposite him, "How do you like the taste?"

He looked at her, and there was hope in her eyes. He raised his lips and gracefully took a big mouthful before saying, "You're not bragging."

She smiled, frowning. Under the light, there are shreds of light in the eyes, like a trickling stream, quiet and peaceful; like the stars in the night, shining and dazzling.

very charming.

Bai Yeqing stared at her with deep eyes. It wasn't until she smiled uncomfortably at him that he suppressed the dark light in his eyes, and said calmly, "Accordingly, you are considered to be from a good family, but you seem to be very skilled in cooking."

"It's not that I was born into a good family. Although my grandmother was born as a lady, but she was also down and out. My dad was frustrated in the officialdom at that time.

I just got divorced from my mother, and the whole person is very depressed. There has to be someone at home who does the chores. I was able to do these things based on the foundation I laid at that time, but it was naturally after Dabai was born that I became more and more proficient. "Xia Xingchen rarely mentions these bad things in his past to others, but when he talks to Bai Yeqing, it is so natural.

Bai Yeqing's eyes fell on the bookshelf in the hall, "Is that your mother in the photo?"

"Yeah." Xia Xingchen turned to look.

"I've never heard of you mentioning it before." A very elegant woman, with a very gentle and good-natured personality.

She looked disappointed, "...She and my dad have been divorced for many years, and now she has a new life. I heard that she is living a good life. So, there is nothing to mention."

"I heard?" Bai Yeqing considered these two words.

She nodded and said in a low voice, "Since she got married, my dad forbid her from coming to see me and blocked all possible contact between us. Later, when I became sensible and had the ability to contact her, I didn't dare to contact her. ...I'm always afraid of ruining her current life. However, she will have her 50th birthday in a while, if possible...I want to take the child to visit her quietly. "

Bai Yeqing could feel the sad atmosphere on her body, that look was very distressing, and there was an urge to hug her into her arms and comfort her. However, in the end, he just nodded quietly and did not express his opinion.

It seems that over the past 20 years, her life has not been good...

His eyes softened a little, and he continued to chat with her casually, wanting to know more about her, "You don't look much like your parents, what's the name of the one you saw last time..."

"Xia Xingxing."

"Well, you don't look alike either. Your faces don't look the same, and your personalities are much different." Bai Yeqing frowned when he mentioned Xia Xingxing.

Xia Xingchen remembered the last time he scared Xia Xingxing in the presidential palace, he couldn't help laughing, and now he feels relieved when he thinks about it.

"What are you laughing at?" Bai Yeqing looked at her. The way she smiled was very infectious, and his expression suddenly improved a lot.

"It's nothing." She shook her head, glanced at her wrist again, and straightened her face, "Hurry up and eat, it's getting late. If you leave now, it will be almost 12 o'clock when you go back to the Presidential Palace, and you won't be able to sleep for a few hours. "

When she said a word, it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on her head, and his face suddenly sank. Xia Xingchen didn't know how he had offended him, anyway, he was always so uncertain.

He eats slowly. When the dough is completely mushy, he has finished eating. There's nothing left.

Xia Xingchen took the bowl and went to the kitchen to wash it. She just received his face, and now, she didn't dare to urge him again. While washing dishes, I heard him calling outside, probably from Leng Coffee, saying that they should go back first.

Xia Xingchen was worried about his safety when he returned to the presidential palace by himself so late.

After cleaning up, wiping his hands and coming out, just about to say something, Bai Yeqing stood in front of her and asked, "Are there any new towels and toothbrushes?"

"Huh?" She froze for a moment.

"Ah what? Toiletries."

"...Yes, yes." Xia Xingchen looked at him, "You...wouldn't you be planning to sleep here?"

"I think what you said is quite reasonable, so as you wish, stay tonight."
