Chapter Sixteen

  Women are like this. Rarely purely rational. Especially when facing something they admire.

  Wei Xiaobai was a bit puzzled. Tomorrow, she must go and take a good look at this Zhang Jin to see who he is. He's worth her doing so.

  She took her to the old Chinese doctor again. She vomited severely, as if there was a nest in her belly. It's certain that she needs to go and see if something is moving inside.

  All the way... She doesn't care about her belly. Doesn't care about her child. Even more, doesn't care if she has a cub. Who the father of the cub is... She cares about Zhang Jin.

  That melancholy and mournful appearance... Wei Xiaobai didn't know at first.

  "Baby, baby."

  One hand was driving. First, he patted her leg. She didn't react. Wei Xiaobai only stretched out his hand to lift up her chin. The person looked listless and still a bit impatient. He pushed away his hand. Her face remained turned towards the window. Her eyebrows were tightly furrowed. Sorrow was etched on her brow.

  Wei Xiaobai stopped by the side of the road and looked at her for a while. He reached out his hand to smooth her hair by her cheek. "Baby, what's wrong? This is annoying."

  She stared out of the window and didn't say a word. This time, she didn't push his hand away, but sat still, letting him see the worried eyes printed on the car window.

  To be honest, she's like this. Wei Xiaobai felt a pang of heartache. Of course, he thought she was worried about not being able to have children.

  "Aren't you worried that you can't get pregnant? Even if we go see that old man now. He said you're not pregnant yet. This vomiting is just a false alarm. I'm not afraid either. Didn't we say last time there's still a way?"

  Wei Xiaobai put his arm around her shoulders and gently shook her, coaxing her.

  Who knows. At this time. She shook her head.

  "It's not that. I'm definitely not pregnant. Something good is happening now."

  "Ah."

  Wei Xiaobai's hand slipped into her thighs. Suddenly, she came over and pulled his wrist. "What are you doing..." However, it wasn't much effort. She was being coy and playful.

  Wei Xiaobai wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her over to sit on his lap. His hand was still gently rubbing between her legs. "How many days has it been? Let me see. Is it a lot or not?"

  He pushed his hand away. "You... are crazy..."

  Wei Xiaobai tightly wrapped his arms around her waist, tilted his head to bite her ear and chuckled. "Later when we change the sanitary napkin, don't throw it away, give it to me. I'll also try clamping it. We've worn a pair of underwear together before, this thing must be clamped together too."

  He patted his shoulder. "Really sick..." His face turned bright red with shame. He really thought of everything.

  Wei Xiaobai smiled and kissed the back of her ear. One hand stroked her cheek, gently touching. "Don't be resentful anymore. You're even prettier when you're angry than that ghost just now."

  He said this and then felt a bit down. He leaned against Wei Xiaobai's shoulder.

  Wei Xiaobai hugged her and slightly shrugged. "What's wrong with you?"

  He seemed to have let out a sigh. For quite a while.

  "Zhang Jin, how can you have a girlfriend like this......"

  Uh-huh. Wei Xiaobai has caught on to the tone. This attitude of hers clearly implies that there's some resentment inside.

  Wei Xiaobai remained expressionless. He simply held her and leaned back comfortably, his hand casually stroking the hair by her cheek.

  "Who is Zhang Jin?"

  "Our director is really nice. He's a great person... I feel so at ease when I lean on him, it's really comfortable. That's all."

  "Zhang Jin he... Zhang Jin he... Zhang Jin he..." Every single one was "Zhang Jin". It's as if even the fact that this person uses two squares of toilet paper when going to the bathroom is a merit.

  Wei Xiaobai was calm and unhurried, just like her bosom sister.

  "That was his girlfriend just now. Still having an affair with someone else's husband. Sigh. Also, how did he end up with such a woman."

  "So it's all said that Zhang Jin is not worthy. Such a good man......" Her fingers twisted together, just like her heart.

  Wei Xiaobai hugged her waist, his face against hers. "You really like him."

  As soon as she heard this, her little heart was moved. She turned her face to one side and looked with her eyes to the other. Wei Xiaobai felt that her cheeks were burning against hers.

  Wei Xiao Bai smiled. Not letting her go. Chasing after to kiss the corner of her mouth. "Hmph, he doesn't have a girlfriend. Are you thinking of pursuing him?"

  It's even more severe.

  Nothing wrong with that. Wei Xiaobai has hit the nail on her thoughts. In fact, she is still quite conservative at heart. She wants to marry a good man. She wants to marry a good man she likes.

  Wei Xiaobai smiled slyly. "Baby, shall we go and snatch him over? I'll snatch him over for you."

  She turned her face around and said, "Don't talk nonsense."

  Wei Xiaobai smiled. The beauty around her eyes and lips was breathtaking. His forehead touched hers. "Hmph, I'll give you whatever you like. No lies." He said, raising one hand as if taking an oath.

  She pushed him away with both hands covering his face.

  To be honest, Xiao Bai is really moving like this. Especially when saying such heart-warming words.

  He lowered his head again and clenched his fists.

  "Wei Xiaobai, I know you're good to me. But don't play jokes like this on me. Especially Zhang Jin, I know your tricks. Don't mess with him. I'm only telling you this because I consider you a friend and trust you."

  Wei Xiaobai lifted her chin and gazed into her eyes.

  "Liar. You still don't trust me. Trust me. How can you think I'm joking with you? Trust me. How can you be sure that I'll take advantage of him? Why won't you consider that I really want to help you? I really only want what's best for you."

  "Because it doesn't make sense."

  "How illogical."

  "You. You're still trying to drag this out with me..."

  "This has nothing to do with what I wanted to talk to you about. Baby, don't you think we're similar? The first time I saw you dance, I thought we were the same kind of people."

  "Nonsense. You're notorious. Who's on your level..."

  "Haha, I'm so fond of your pretentious little temper......" Wei Xiaobai's lips touched hers, lightly brushing against them. Honestly, it was incredibly precious. "Baby, just remember, there's no such thing as unrequited love. It's all about the taste. Once you get a taste of it, you can't let go." He brushed against her again. "And besides, we're definitely going to have a falling out." Xiaobai was so insistent on emphasizing this point. "We're definitely going to have a falling out." This is actually how you should deal with neurotics - constant psychological suggestions. Just wait and see, when the time comes and they really do fall out, she'll be completely invested... and think it's all perfectly normal.

  She couldn't help but sigh. She also had to admit it. Wei Xiaobai was really considerate of her.

  "What to do. You're not wrong. I really like Zhang Jin. But... if only I knew his girlfriend was like this before. I still wanted to try and fight for him. But now... " She pursed her lips. "Zhang Jin deserves better." At least she has a conscience. And can see through herself as what kind of person she is. Better not harm the good man in her heart anymore.

  It's really a true friendship. From now on, the yamen will be open to Wei Xiaobai without any reservation. It's as if they're one of us. Cough. This is something that everyone envies.

  "Oh, I see. You're worried about how to tell Zhang Jin about his girlfriend's affair, right? You're afraid of hurting him and also afraid he won't believe you. What you fear most is that even if he does believe you, from then on, he'll keep a distance from you. Although you don't have any ill intentions towards him, you also don't want him to become estranged from you."

  She bit her lip and stared at him.

  He's really gotten under her skin.

  Wei Xiaobai stroked her face. "Silly baby, this is easy to handle. I'll take care of everything for you."

  He shook his head and covered his hand. "Zhang Jin's matter. I'll handle it myself."

  Very persistent.

  Wei Xiaobai later thought that the reason he unknowingly got stuck with Gao Yan was because he was too infatuated with the occasional "toughness" that would burst out from this seemingly "soft" and unknown woman.

  Rarely confused. This is a portrait of Gao Yun.

  Rarely persistent. This is the poison on Gao's body.

  Imagine. A person who is determined to have no such character. She is willing to reveal her true nature without reservation. And yet, she timidly reveals this character to you... How precious it is.

  Wei Xiaobai knows how to cherish things.
