Chapter 49 Two Big Fish Caught Together

  Looking at Bai Yi's genuinely acknowledging expression, Leng Xi gulped and swallowed her saliva, remaining silent.

  But I didn't dare look at Aunt Cao again, she hung her head, as if she was shy.

  She isn't a clumsy person either. Looking at the scene, Bai Yicheng didn't want to go on this blind date and was forced into it, using her as a shield.

  That time in the parking lot, he refused his mother's words, and she also heard them. It was hard for Bai Yicheng to hold back his temper and listen to his mother's arrangements to go on blind dates with women he didn't like.

  Thinking of the parking lot, he couldn't help but recall the passionate and intimate scene between her and Ling Han, Cold Creek's face involuntarily flushed with heat.

  Bai Mu looked at Bai Xi Cheng's face, which had a layer of blush on it, and thought she was shy because of Bai Yi Cheng's open words. She suddenly understood and laughed very badly, "Good, good... you guys decide your own affairs, if you have a grandson, be sure to tell me in time, I'll worship Creek as an ancestor!"

  This remark made Leng Xi even more embarrassed, she hastily picked up the juice on the table and took a sip to divert her awkwardness.

  Bai Mu was overjoyed and laughed heartily, her happiness splashing out like water droplets.

  Her own son is already 25 years old and still hasn't found a girlfriend, spending his days only knowing how to fight and hang out with a group of stinky and sweaty men, which makes her very worried.

  I didn't expect my son to have a girlfriend who is so gentle, beautiful and perfect. This pretty face, perfect figure, and great personality, oh my, she's the best candidate for a daughter-in-law!

  This girl is paired with her handsome son, and in the future, the child born will be incredibly good-looking!

  Bai Mu liked Leng Xi more and more as she looked at her. The first time they met, she felt that she had a connection with this girl, and indeed they did!

  A Chinese saying goes: If you're not of the same family, don't enter the same house!

  These words were indeed correct, and Bai Mu secretly rejoiced, unable to suppress the excitement in her heart. She let out a loud whoop, burst into laughter, and was so overjoyed that she almost fell over.

  Leng Xi was startled by her sudden movement, his big eyes blinking rapidly as he looked at her in confusion.

  It's done, my mom is overthinking again!

  Bai Yicheng raised an eyebrow and looked at his mother with a tangled expression.

  "Oh, by the way, Yi Cheng, I want to talk about you. How did you take care of your wife? How could you let her get hurt all over and leave her crying alone in a corner? Mom told you that as a man, you should be responsible. The most shameful thing for a man is to bully a woman. Why didn't you remember?"

  Bai Mu suddenly stopped laughing and stood up with a "whoosh", pushing Bai Yi Cheng's head, scolding him with a tone of reprimand.

  "You're hurt, let me take a look." Upon hearing his mother's words, Bai Yicheng tensed up and turned Cold Creek's body around to see the bandage wrapped around her other arm. His heart ached and he furrowed his brow, "Did your family bully you again?"

  He still remembers the first time they met, she was also so miserable, saying that she was driven out by her family. Now, in just a few days, she's been hurt again! What kind of heart does this family have, it's really ruthless!

  Bai Yicheng's eyebrows were furrowed, and a cold anger emanated from him, but his eyes looking at Leng Xi were filled with heartache.

  Since that day when he was dragged back by his own mother, he had been dealing with various blind dates and didn't have time to go back to the police station. So, everything that happened at the police station that day, Bai Yicheng still hadn't had a chance to know about it yet.

  "It wasn't your fault, I just accidentally fell, it's nothing, I'll be fine in a few days." Leng Xi felt uneasy under his intense gaze, she pulled away the hand he had placed on her shoulder and looked down, feeling embarrassed.

  She also wanted to get better soon, so she could see Ling Han sooner. Not seeing him for a few days made her feel empty and lost inside. She didn't know what was wrong with herself either.

  "Family? Xi'er, are your family members not good to you? You seemed to be thinking of your mother just now, is it because of your mother..." At this point, Bai Mu stopped herself in time and looked at Leng Xi with even more pity and sympathy.

  Alas, this child must be from a single-parent family. Cold Creek followed his father's life and was bullied by his stepmother, Bai Mu thought to herself.

  She felt that gaze, which was almost pitiful, fall on her, and Leng Xi suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, with all the hairs on her body standing on end.

  Since she was young, what she feared the most was that kind of gaze from others, filled with pity and sympathy, which made her whole body feel piercing pain. It wasn't because she was sensitive, but rather it was due to having experienced such gazes since childhood, and the mental pressure that came with them. Every time she endured it, she would get hurt once again.

  "No, I'm fine, thank you for your concern. It's getting late, I should head home... goodbye." Leng Xi's face was slightly pale, her eyes cast down, not looking at them, she stood up and was about to leave.

  "Quickly send her off, quickly go..."

  In the car, Leng Xi looked out of the window, stretching her line of sight far away, as if thinking about something.

  Actually, after being hit with so many things about parents today, she was a bit anxious to know who her own parents were...

  "What's wrong? Is it because I didn't discuss with you and presumptuously called you my girlfriend, making you angry?" Bai Yicheng asked from the rearview mirror.

  "What? No, I'm not angry. I know you have your reasons and I'm happy to help." Leng Xi came back to her senses, only then realizing that her reaction had been too extreme, and she felt a little apologetic.

  "Is it at your home? You can tell me..."

  "No, my family is fine, I just miss my mother a bit and got distracted, nothing's wrong..." Leng Xi hurriedly explained carefully, fearing Bai Yi Cheng would misunderstand his family.

  Bai Yicheng didn't like to pry into others' private matters, seeing her somewhat disheveled appearance, he didn't ask again, but simply drove the car and sent her back to Furong Community.

  "Hey, Xi'er, is this your new friend?" Connie had spotted them from afar as soon as they got off the car and came over with a warm and friendly smile.

  "Hmm... yeah, sis..." Leng Xi forced a smile and said awkwardly.

  Leng Ni looked up and down at Bai Yicheng, "Not bad, Leng Xi, I didn't expect you to be so capable, catching two big fish at once!" Leng Ni smiled, but her words made Bai Yicheng's pupils constrict.

  "What do you mean......" Bai Yicheng's expression turned serious as he took a step forward, his posture indicating that he was about to confront Leng Ni.

  In Bai Yicheng's eyes, all the injuries on Leng Xi were inflicted by the Leng family members, so in his subconscious mind, no one in the Leng family was a good person. Leng Nian saying this was just another attempt to use words to attack Leng Xi and make her uncomfortable.

  "What I mean is... ask her herself, she doesn't even know how many men she's with in a day..."

  "Lenny!" Just as Lenny was about to utter a slander, a cold voice rebuked from the side, Lenny was startled and swallowed back the words that had just reached her throat.
