The next day, when Bai Weijin woke up, Zhao Xuyang was already having breakfast with Gu Baiqi.
“Daddy Xuyang, why did you arrive so early? I believe it would take you a few more days to arrive!” Gu Baiqi said to Zhao Xuyang while eating a piece of bread.
Hearing Gu Baiqi’s words, Bai Weijin became angry and wanted to beat him up. ‘What a bad boy! He is finally telling the truth when he is having Zhao Xuyang by his side!’ Bai Weijin thought to herself and said, “Gu Baiqi, what a shame! Do you still remember what you have promised me?”
As soon as Gu Baiqi heard Bai’s shout, he stopped immediately and looked to Zhao Xuyang for help.
“What’s up? He’s just missing me. Is there anything wrong with him? If Qiqi didn’t tell me, how long would you like to fool me? When would you finally remember me and contact me?” Zhao Xuyang put down his fork and knife and wiped his mouth.
Hearing Zhao Xuyang’s words, Bai Weijin paused for a while. “Xuyang, don’t spoil this bad boy! He will become a spoiled child sooner or later!” Bai Weijin said angrily.
It was said that a nice mom would probably have a spoiled child. How come a father would also do so?
Zhao Xuyang glanced at Bai Weijin gently and said calmly, “Qiqi will not become a spoiled child, but a poorly educated boy if you continue to treat him like that!”
Bai Weijin had nothing to say. She walked to the dining table and sat down angrily to have breakfast, as if Zhao Xuyang and Gu Baiqi were the breakfast.
Soon the door bell started to ring. Zhao Xuyang raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Bai Weijin. When thinking that the visitor might be Chu Jiran, Bai Weijin started to have a headache since she found it was difficult to introduce Chu Jiran to Zhao Xuyang. Moreover, based on her knowledge, Zhao Xuyang must not treat Chu properly. But Bai Weijin had no other choice, but to open the door.
As expected, the visitor was Chu Jiran. Bai Weijin looked at Chu Jiran and smiled helplessly, “Here you come. Come in!”
As soon as Chu Jiran came in, he saw a harmonious family of three, as if he was the only outsider. Chu Jiran started to have a heartache, but he appeared to be smiling. Everything was still undecided before Bai Weijin clarified.
As expected, Zhao Xuyang asked as soon as he met Chu Jiran, “What? It seems that he cannot wait anymore. Is this the reason you came back alone without notifying me?”
Bai Weijin looked at Zhao Xuyang and shouted helplessly, “Xuyang…”
Hearing this, Zhao Xuyang shut up and still looked at Chu Jiran in an unfriendly manner. Chu Jiran could also sense Zhao Xuyang’s unfriendliness. He was both curious and nervous. ‘Who is this guy? He seems to have a very close relationship with Bai Weijin.’ Chu Jiran thought.
“Okay. Let me introduce. This is Chu Jiran, my good friend in China. This is Zhao Xuyang, who has been helping me so much over the past six years when I was living in a foreign country.” Bai Weijin thought for a while and decided to have a brief introduction in this way.
As soon as Bai Weijin finished, both men started to look at each other with anger. They kept silent for a long time before Chu Jiran said first, “Hello, I’m Chu Jiran.”
“Zhao Xuyang.” Zhao Xuyang could clearly feel Chu’s affection towards Bai Weijin. But Bai Weijin didn’t have any deep affection towards Chu. So who was the one that Bai Weijin loved most? Zhao Xuyang was here mainly to find the answer. Now it seemed that Chu Jiran in front of him could help him get to know the answer.
Seeing both of them start to shake hands, Bai Weijin became finally relieved.
“Xuyang, what else are you coming back for?” Bai Weijin was curious about Zhao Xuyang’s future plan. Was he going to stay here for a long time, or was he just here for a short while?
“I have something else to be busy with. I’ve come back not only to find you, but to do something important. This time, I’ve come back as General Manager of the branch office in China! I’m quite busy.” Zhao Xuyang looked at Bai Weijin angrily.
Bai Weijin scratched her head and said, “Then, I’ll not bother you. I’m going to work as well after I send Qiqi to school.”
“What? Why can’t I send my son to school?” Zhao Xuyang ignored Bai Weijin. He held Gu Baiqi up and came out.
Chu Jiran was very envious and sad when seeing the harmonious relationship between Zhao Xuyang and Gu Baiqi. Over the past six years, Bai Weijin had finally come to someone else. Chu Jiran didn’t ask about things that happened overseas, but he was clear that Bai Weijin was living without him by her side. This was the reality he had to face now.
“Jiran, you…” Bai Weijin turned around and asked Chu Jiran. But her words were stopped by Chu Jiran, “I’m sending Qiqi to school. He is my adopted son.”
Looking at the backs of three of them, Bai Weijin shook her head helplessly and hurriedly followed them.
When four of them appeared at the school gate, many people were looking at them, expecting a wonderful show of a lovely child, two handsome men and a beautiful lady.
At this time, Gu Xinuo had arrived. Gu Xinuo was extremely upset when finding that the four of them got everyone’s attention. He started to come over, but soon Gu found the face he feared most.
Gu Xinuo didn’t come back to his senses until the four of them left the school gate. He knew that was not Gu Yeze. But that boy looked like Gu Yeze, his uncle! Gu Xinuo couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. At the same time, he was thinking of ways to avoid meeting that boy, because that face was extremely frightening to him.
Although the young boy was curious to know why Gu Baiqi looked so similiar to Gu Yeze, he never imagined that they were actually father and son, because he believed it was impossible for his uncle to have any child!
“Mr. Chu, I think we need to have a good talk.” After Bai Weijin left, Zhao Xuyang said to Chu Jiran politely, unlike what he was in front of Bai Weijin.
Chu Jiran looked at Zhao Xuyang and raised his eyebrows with interest. He nodded and said, “I think so. Mr. Zhao, I don’t believe we are enemies.” Sometimes, men could also have accurate intuition as women did. After they met this morning, Chu Jiran didn’t know much about Zhao Xuyang and even had a bad impression of Zhao Xuyang. But Chu didn’t treat Zhao as his enemy.
“Let’s find a place!” Zhao Xuyang smiled and said, obviously showing his agreement.
Two of them walked to a cafe near the school and ordered two cups of coffee. It seemed that they were going to have a long conversation.
