Four Hundred and Twenty-Six Asking for Forgiveness From Mr. Tsundere Bai (Part 2)

Three simple words made several officials sitting opposite him raise their heads curiously. This voice... although it cannot be said to be gentle, but it is completely different from the serious attitude when they talked about things.

"Are you busy?"

Bai Yeqing glanced at the people sitting across from him and gave a faint "hmm".

"Oh, you get busy first." Xia Xingchen said and wanted to hang up the phone.

"Wait!" He said two words lightly. Then, he covered the receiver and said to the people on the other side: "Two minutes."

Then he turned around and asked his secretary to make tea and come in. Then he got up and walked to the window.

"Is there something wrong on the phone?" Bai Yeqing asked. Compared to when he was in front of others just now, his voice was obviously much more relaxed now.

Xia Xingchen replied: "Dabai just called. He was a little angry that I left him there, so I'm going to pick him up now."

"Yeah. Is the fever gone?"

"It's okay." She thought for a moment and then asked, "The housekeeper said... you were the one taking care of me last night."

He frowned, "When did he talk so much?"

"Don't blame him, he told me this for your own good." Xia Xingchen was afraid that he would get angry and even fire the housekeeper.

"What does it mean to be good for me?"

She answered truthfully: "He told me not to let you down, and also said..."

"What else did you say?"

"... He also said that this is the first time I've seen you treat someone so well." Xia Xingchen paused and asked knowingly, "Is it true?"

Bai Yeqing didn't answer her words at all, he just said: "Today the temperature has dropped by two degrees again, so wear thicker clothes before going out."

"..." She pursed her lips. Yes, this man is extremely proud. If you expect him to admit it, you might as well expect the sun to come out from the west!

"I heard from the housekeeper that you didn't sleep long. After lunch, remember to take a good rest."

"Ok, I know."

"And..." Xia Xingchen thought about it for a moment.

Still asked, "Today's schedule at the Civil Affairs Bureau..."

"Leng Fei has been cancelled." He answered calmly.

"Huh? Oh..." She responded softly, then lowered her eyes and fell silent. Bai Yeqing asked, "Are you disappointed?"

disappointment?

More or less.

I'm not disappointed that he canceled, but more disappointed that I missed his wife's identity twice. Sometimes, I wonder, is this the fate that arranged it this way to show whether they are destined or not?

"If you're disappointed, I can ask Lengpai to change her schedule now."

"No." Xia Xingchen answered quickly and shook his head, "I know it was right to cancel. I don't feel disappointed."

Bai Yeqing said nothing more. The reason why he canceled the trip was more because she felt tired. He can bear that kind of responsibility, that kind of restraint, that kind of pressure, but that doesn't mean she can.

"Then...I'll hang up." Xia Xingchen spoke softly without hearing his voice again.

"Um."

She was about to hang up, but then she asked reluctantly: "Are you still angry with me?"

He snorted, "What do you think?"

"..." She pursed her lips, very self-aware, "Okay then."

Don’t ask any more questions and hang up the phone. It's really not that simple to ask him to calm down.

After Xia Xingchen hung up the phone, she kept thinking about what she had to do to make him stop being angry with her.

……………………

-->>

You say you are angry, but how long can you actually be angry?

Bai Yeqing hung up the phone, stood at the window, pondered for a while, corrected himself, and then sat down on the sofa again.

"Continue with the previous question." He opened the file, took a sip of tea, and returned to the topic.

He was as calm and serious as usual, without any other expression.

It was rumored that Mr. President was in love with the woman named Xia who was causing a lot of noise in the news with Mr. Yu. Everyone was still dubious about it. However, now it seems that this is really the case.

This kind of thing has happened, and Mr. President is still happy with it. It seemed that the relationship with that woman had no intention of ending.

……………………

It was past 11 o'clock when Xia Xingchen arrived at his old house. Lunch is being prepared in the kitchen.

When I arrived at the small building, I didn't expect Xia Dabai to be there at this moment.

She went in and immediately saw the stone on the shelf in the hall.

"Why are you here?" Xia Xingchen asked Xia Dabai while untying the scarf around his neck.

Xia Dabai was chewing a lollipop, and when he heard her voice, he turned his face.

He was already depressed, but now that he saw her, he felt as if he had been wronged in every possible way. The little nose sniffed, and he slid off the sofa and ran towards her.

"What's wrong?"

Xia Xingchen asked.

Xia Dabai just shook his head, "I won't give this stone to grandpa anymore."

She was quite surprised.

I know how much the old man values ​​this stone. Now that my child has moved me down like this, I am afraid that I will feel extremely distressed.

"Maybe he had a quarrel with his grandfather." Mrs. Lanting poured a cup of hot tea and said, "The old man has such a temper. Now that he is older, he is becoming more and more like a child. It's okay to have a tantrum with Dabai. strangeness."

Xia Xingchen glanced at Xia Dabai.

Xia Dabai was obviously in a bad mood and worried. His little hand kept holding her hand tightly, never letting go for a moment.

"I'll go up and see Dad. Is he feeling better?"

Mrs. Lanting nodded, "I can finally get out of bed today."

"Really?" She was also happy.

"You go and have a look. Your father is in the greenhouse at the back. It is said that Madam Shen sent him rare flower seeds, and he cannot let the flower die."

"He has just recovered, and he has started to toss these things!" She said, and got up and went to the garden.

From a distance, Bai Qingrang was seen watering in the greenhouse with a cane.

Compared with the previous two days of bed rest, he looked much more energetic now. However, looking at the trembling body, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

I just felt that this life was like a burning lamp, burning out bit by bit, and I don't know when the wick will burn out and the fire will be completely extinguished.

She felt extremely guilty. If she had known this, she should have thought of other ways and not used his liver.

"Don't think too much. Your dad is recovering slowly now. Fortunately, he's fine now. I believe he'll be fine soon."

Xia Xingchen nodded slightly. Seeing that he was concentrating on his flowers and plants, she didn't rush to disturb him.

Lanting glanced at her, "Are you feeling unwell? You don't look very well."

"I had a slight cold yesterday. I took medicine at night and I feel much better."

"Wear more clothes. Don't think about those messy things for now." Lanting looked up and asked her, "Didn't you say you were going to the Civil Affairs Bureau today? How did you arrange it?"
