Chapter 348: Consciousness of a Married Woman (3)
Her body tensed slightly, and she intertwined with his big palm hanging by her side, "It should be... Madam."
Bai Yeqing's expression became more serious, looking at her slightly trembling eyelashes, "If you don't want to see her, I'll just close the door to Leng Fei."
"No." Xia Xingchen shook his head and raised his head to meet his gaze, "Invite her in. After hiding for three days, it's time to figure things out."
He frowned and looked at the time again. Xia Xingchen knew that he was very busy, "Don't worry, go about your business, I won't be swayed by her."
Bai Yeqing put his arms around her and held her to his chest. He was tall, which made her look smaller. Wearing slippers, only at his shoulders. Her soft body leaned against his chest. His slender fingers inserted into her hair and lifted her fair face, "It's too late for you to waver now. Don't forget, you are now a 'married woman'!"
Xia Xingchen smiled and said, "I will remember it."
……………………
She was changing clothes in the room, and Bai Yeqing went out first.
When we walked to the hall, Mrs. Lanting had been invited in. Seeing him, she immediately stood up excitedly, "Ye Qing..."
"Madam." Bai Yeqing nodded, still as respectful and polite as before.
"Xingchen..." Lanting's eyes suddenly turned red when he mentioned his daughter. The hands hanging by his side were shaking a little, and he suppressed his emotions, "You know best, I left her behind as a last resort..."
"You can explain it to her yourself later." Bai Yeqing said, "She will come out soon."
Lan Ting's dim eyes regained some sparkle, "Is she willing to see me?"
He nodded slightly. He looked at the time and said, "Sit down for a while, I have business to do, so I'll excuse you."
Lan Ting wanted to talk to him about the matter between him and Xingchen, but he didn't speak immediately. Instead, he nodded and sat down silently. Quickly, Xia Xingchen opened the door and came out of the room.
Mrs. Lanting was sitting on the sofa in the hall, with her back facing her. Xia Xingchen looked at it blankly, with complicated thoughts and various emotions constantly surging. In the past, I had such a rapport with my wife, and I liked her inexplicably, but now, it has become something else.
Take a deep breath, suppress the emotions in your heart, and walk slowly over.
Hear the noise,
Lanting turned around. The two people's eyes met, and Lan Ting's eyes suddenly became covered with a thin layer of mist. She suppressed it, and a slight smile appeared on the corners of her curved lips, "Xingchen..."
Xia Xingchen sat down opposite her and wanted to call her "Madam", but her lips moved and she couldn't say it out as calmly as before. He just twitched the corners of his lips and said forcefully: "Long time no see."
"Yes...it's been such a long time..."
Lan Ting's eyes fell on her lovingly, feeling excited and relieved at the same time. He nodded repeatedly, as if talking to her, but also to himself, "When I knew it was you, I couldn't believe it... God has never treated me badly..."
Xia Xingchen didn't know how to answer the call. In her knowledge, her mother has always been Shen Min and her father is Xia Guopeng. Even after so many years, her father's love and mother's love were somewhat lacking for her, but she subconsciously identified them with them.
Although I had a good rapport with Mrs. Lanting before, now that I know their relationship, I feel an inexplicable unfamiliarity -->>
It felt like there was suddenly an insurmountable obstacle.
"You came to me to tell me about Ye Qing and me?" Xia Xingchen got straight to the point.
Lan Ting felt a lot softer in her heart when she saw her daughter. I wasn't willing to talk to her about this kind of thing like beating mandarin ducks right away, but that's all we talked about...
"I have been at the Bai family for the past two days. Ye Qing's father and mother do not agree with this matter; Mr. Bai was also furious when you disappeared suddenly. Of course, your father..." At this point, Mrs. Lanting paused. , glanced at Xingchen's face searchingly, and then changed his words: "Ye Qing's uncle also doesn't approve of the two of you being together. You can't blame them for this matter. After all, cousins..."
Lanting didn't say any more.
Xia Xingchen's fingers tightened on her knees.
"I know you don't agree, but you have your reasons for not agreeing, and he and I also have reasons why we have to be together." She spoke, but her tone was firm.
Lan Ting leaned forward, "Xingchen, don't be so stupid. Besides Ye Qing, you have many choices. There are people as good as him."
"You are referring to Zenan, right? I heard from him that your daughter had already been promised to him before she was found."
"..." Lan Ting's lips moved, wanting to say something. Xia Xingchen spoke again, with a cooler tone, "I'm sorry, no matter how good he is, I am not interested in a political marriage. Besides, in my eyes, there will never be anyone else." Even better than Ye Qing."
Her attitude was obviously much colder than before. Even just a slightly cool look made Lan Ting's heart ache.
"Okay, okay, you have your own ideas, so let's not talk about this for now." Mrs. Lanting's tone was quite cautious. She finally saw her daughter and she didn't want to make her angry. He suppressed his sadness and said, "You have been missing for a few days. Your dad...he really wants to see you."
Xia Xingchen bit her lip and didn't answer.
"Xingchen, I can understand that you are angry at me for abandoning you. However, your father...for so many years, he was completely unaware of it. It is reasonable for you to blame me, but you cannot blame him." Mrs. Lanting said every word. Defending Bai Qingrang, he finally looked at Xia Xingchen pleadingly, "Come back to Bai's house with me and formally meet your father, okay?"
Xia Xingchen knew that his wife's words were not unreasonable. only……
While he was thinking about it, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang. She took it out, looked at the screen, and said, "Sorry, I have a call."
Mrs. Lanting nodded. She answered the phone and stood up, "Hello, Teacher Yang."
Over there, it's Dabai's teacher calling. As soon as he heard Xia Xingchen's voice, Teacher Yang immediately said: "Mother Dabai, please come to the hospital quickly!"
"What happened?" When Xia Xingchen heard the word 'hospital', his heart clenched into knots.
"Dabai vomited a little when he was eating at noon today. We just thought it was a problem with his gastrointestinal tract, so we gave him medicine and saw that he was fine, so we didn't worry about it. But, we didn't expect... we didn't expect that just before get out of class ended , he fainted."
"Have you fainted?" Xia Xingchen suddenly felt weak all over and almost lost his grip on the phone in his hand.
Mrs. Lanting also stood up suddenly. Xia Xingchen could only hear Xia Xingchen holding the phone and asking tremblingly: "Which hospital? Have you arrived at the hospital now?"
