Chapter 811 - She Did Not Want to Eat (1/2)
“Okay.” Bai Zhenfeng’s mouth answered faster than he could think. Actually, everyone knew that it was just polite to ask. If it was someone else, he would have left ages ago; but Bai Zhenfeng was thick-skinned enough to stay. He had not eaten the food that Wei Lan made in a long time; he did not even care if he bumped into a needle. Actually, he felt that Wei Lan was asking for trouble; why did she want to cook when he could just treat them to food? Now, he knew.
It turned out that Wei Lan was not making food, but was making a family.
Wei Lan saw Bai Zhenfeng come over and was not surprised. She took out another pair of chopsticks from the kitchen; clearly, she had no intention of letting Bai Zhenfeng stay for food.
However, since he was seated down, she should get a set of cutlery for him.
“Xiao Yi, bring the food to Gao Xin and Ruoxin later. I made soup for Ruoxin to drink. I’ll go find her tomorrow.”
“Okay, Mom. Thank you.” Gao Yi drank a mouthful of soup and still did not talk to Bai Zhenfeng.
“Don’t need to thank me. Ruoxin, that child…” Wei Lan sighed lightly. “Why does she have such a tough life?” She herself was a mother. If her child went missing, she really did not know if she could endure it. A child, to a mother, was akin to her life.
Xia Ruoxin… Xia Ruoxin… Bai Zhenfeng had not heard this name in a long time.
“Gao Yi, you’re together with her?” Even though he had suppressed his tone, his displeasure was clear to others.
In his heart—even though Gao Yi and his daughter had divorced, he was still his son-in-law. When Bai Luoyin was better, they could even reconcile and reunite as a whole family.
Just that, he did not imagine that Xia Ruoxin would still be here. Did she not go back?
“Uncle Bai, I don’t think this is any of your business.” Gao Yi smiled coldly. Why did he have to report to him about dating someone else?
“Nothing. I just asked casually.” Bai Zhenfeng was clearly embarrassed. At first, he took it for granted, but when he saw Wei Lan’s nonchalant look, he then remembered that this pair of mother and son treated him just like a stranger.
After Gao Yi was done eating, he was prepared to leave. There were still two people in the hospital, and he had to bring food to them.
Of course, Wei Lan did not want to stay here for long and was prepared to go out. Here, she would only have a staring competition with Bai Zhenfeng. Honestly, she really did not want to. In the past, she could sit with Bai Zhenfeng for a whole day and not get tired. However, now, after spending time with him for a while; she was exhausted.
When Bai Zhenfeng saw that both of them were leaving, it seemed inappropriate for him to stay here. After all, it was someone else’s house so—in the end—he saved some dignity for himself and left before them.
“Mom, stay away from him in the future.” Gao Yi told Wei Lan; he was afraid that Wei Lan would soften up and would cross the Rubicon[1] with Bai Zhenfeng again. He was not a fool. The reason why Bai Zhenfeng came over was obviously for Bai Luoyin. He was just a normal father who would dare to do everything and anything… but not for him, Gao Xin, or his mother.
“Don’t worry. Mommy knows that. I’m living a good life now and wouldn’t go back to the hell days of the past.” Indeed, Wei Lan’s attitude had improved. Ever since she moved over, she felt that she had entered another world: simple yet fulfilling.
“I’ll go and buy a chicken to make soup for Ruoxin.”
As she was saying, she took her wallet and went out. Just that, when she was turning, no one noticed the darkness on her face and the sigh she let out.
Gao Yi did not think much and brought the two lunch boxes to the hospital.
When Gao Xin saw Gao Yi holding something, he immediately ran over.
