C205 The Knot Is Slowly Fading away
Xiaoguai's body was not in good condition and she soon became tired. After she fell asleep, old madame let the servant send her back to her room. Only then did she tell Baili Jing about Xiaoguai's condition. Baili Jing only recovered after a while and her eyes were red, "Xiaoguai is so pitiful. Such a young child, why did she suffer so much!"
Baili Jing had compassion since she was young. She was the kind of person who would definitely pay when she saw others begging on the streets. How could Bai Jinxiu not understand her. She helplessly patted the back of her hand and comforted, "Don't be sad. Luckily Xia Dong is already pregnant now. When she gives birth to the baby, she will be able to save obediently. "
"Xia Dong is pregnant?" Baili Jing's heart tightened and thought that it was fortunate that she did not act rashly. If it was to help Xingchen vent her anger and cause Xia Dong to have a mishap, wouldn't Big Brother hate her to death? Furthermore, it would indirectly cause Xiaoguai to die. Then her sins would be very serious!
"Yes, it has already been more than three months. "
Baili Jing calmed her heart. Her beautiful brows knitted and said, "Mommy, Yi's biological mother is Xia Dong. What is going on? Didn't you guys say that Yi's biological mother abandoned Yi and my big brother and eloped with someone else? She died in a car accident?"
Bai Jinxiu looked at old madame with a difficult expression. It was old madame who fabricated such a lie in order to cover up the truth. She lied to Han, Yi, and Xiaojing. Now she did not know whether to explain or not.
Old madame obviously knew what her daughter-in-law was troubled about. She coughed and said, "This matter is more complicated. Back then, you were studying abroad in England. We did not want you to worry, so we did not tell you the truth. "
Old madame briefly recounted Xia Dong's experience. However, there was also some truth hidden within that was related to Baili Han.
After Baili Jing finished listening, she said after a while, "I suddenly admire Xia Dong. "
Bai Jinxiu poked her forehead unhappily, "What do you admire about her for? Stealing seeds? Or did you make a mess of my reputation? You better behave yourself!"
" Mommy, listen to me! " Baili Jing hugged her arm. "Think about it. Xia Dong took care of two children by herself. Xiaoguai even had that kind of illness. How much pressure did she bear? With my brother's bad temper, he would get close to people he did not like. What would he do and say? You still don't know? Xia Dong must have suffered a lot! "
Although Bai Jinxiu felt uncomfortable in her heart, thinking about it carefully, it also made sense. The corner of her lips unconsciously curled up, "She taught Xiaobao and Xiaoguai quite well. "
The knot in old madame's heart was also slowly dissipating. She sighed and said, "I don't want to say anything about their matter. I just hope that our family will be safe and happy. "
Baili Jing carried Bai Jinxiu with one hand and old madame with the other. She smiled, "Grandmother. Don't worry about it. It's our home. Let me tell you some good news. A few days ago, I was on the phone with Liu. He said that he and his former classmates had set up a high-tech company. Now, it has officially started operating. Liu is also working very hard now! "
Bai Jinxiu's expression was indifferent. She did not have much feelings for Baili Yun, this illegitimate child. Old madame did not like Baili Yun in the past. The reason was mostly because he was uninhibited. Now that he was willing to do things properly, she felt somewhat gratified in her heart and nodded her head repeatedly in agreement.
The three of them were chatting happily upstairs when Baili Han and Xia Dong sent the sleeping Great-Grandfather over. Thus, the group of people chatting increased by another two people.
Xia Dong sat by the side and listened to Baili Jing talking about the interesting things that happened while traveling around the world. Her thoughts drifted away. She thought of the confusion she had when she first went out of the country. She thought of Beitang Shen and her godfather who was far away in Italy.
The phone suddenly rang and broke the harmonious atmosphere.
Xia Dong quickly picked up the phone and smiled apologetically, "Sorry, I will take the call. "
She pressed the answer button and quickly walked out.
Baili Han's eyes darkened. He had just caught a flash of panic in her eyes and suspected that it was Beitang Shen calling.
Xia Dong walked quickly to the empty balcony and called softly to the phone, "Mr. Shen. "
Beitang Shen's cold voice came into his ears, "I want to see you. "
She bit her lips, "When?"
"Now. " His tone was overbearing and could not be refuted.
She paused and asked, "Where do we meet?"
He said coldly, "I'll go to the old residence to pick you up. "
"No need," she said hurriedly. " I'll go out. Tell me a place. "
"Are you so worried that the people of Baili family will find out about our relationship?" Beitang Shen's car was parked on the road outside the old residence of Baili. His eyes were filled with anger as he stared at the luxurious manor outside the window.
"No, I just don't want to cause unnecessary misunderstandings. Mr. Shen, I'm sorry. " Her heart was filled with guilt.
He paused and tried his best to suppress his anger. " I'm outside the villa now. Come out. "1
"Mr. Shen -" Before she could finish, he hung up.
She stared blankly at the phone in her hand. She helplessly touched her forehead, turned around, and walked downstairs.
Baili Han flashed out from behind the wall and looked at her back. His eyes were as dark as the sea.
"Butler, if anyone asks, tell them I'm in the garden. " Before Xia Dong went out, she said a few words to the butler.
"Okay. "
A black Maybar and Hz parked by the road.
Xia Dong opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.
In the driver's seat, Beitang Shen was expressionless. A storm surged in his deep eyes as he stared at her without blinking.
She forced a smile. "Mr. Shen, have you finished dealing with the matters in Japan?"
Beitang Shen did not answer her question. He said stiffly, "Why do you want to marry him?"
She lowered her head and did not dare to look into his eyes. She said in a low voice, "During the time you left, a lot of things happened. Baili Han found out the identities of Xiaobao and Xiaoguai. He also knew what happened five years ago. "
He angrily interrupted her, "So you gave yourself to him?"
She smiled bitterly, "No. I think I like him. "
Beitang Shen suddenly grabbed her shoulders and forced her to look into his eyes. "Xia, look at me. Don't be fooled by his sudden impulse!"
She shook her head. "No, Mr. Shen. I think I really like it. . . "
He suddenly lowered his head and kissed her lips, blocking the words that she had not yet said.
Baili Han was standing at the entrance of the manor. When he saw this scene, a cold and fierce aura immediately burst out from his body. His dark and heavy eyes were filled with fury.
"Wu. . . Wu. . . " Xia Dong pushed his chest hard.
