She also missed him badly . She squatted down and got closer to him . Xia Dabai kissed her face sweetly .

Xia Xingchen thanked the chauffeur and ushered him out . When she came back she saw Xia Dabai taking stuff out of his big backpack .

Toothbrush, toothpaste, towel and also pajamas .

Xia Xingchen found him a pair of slippers in the closet . It turned cold, so walking around barefoot was not a good idea . But her slippers were way too big for him . “These will help till I get new ones for you . Shall we go shopping after dinner? You need new slippers . Slow down . ”

“OK . ”

Seeing him taking out the stuff, she asked, “what’s this for?”

“I’m just like you . ”

“What do you mean? Like me?”

“I’m running away from home! Just like you!”His arms were wrapped around her neck . “Dabao, I’m gonna stay together with you! If you are here, I must be here as well . ”

Hearing this, Xia Xingchen felt sweet and satisfied . “You deserve my love . ”

But…

He didn’t understand what’s going on here . He was the one who ran away from home, but she didn’t . Because that house wasn’t her home at all .

“Does your father know you are here?”Xia Xingchen asked .

“No . I didn’t tell him yet . He called me ‘annoying’ . ”Xia Dabai complained, “his temper is getting worse and worse these days . I can’t even bear him . ”

Xia Xingchen couldn’t agree more . She knew exactly his bad temper after the whole birthday thing .

“He’s temper is gonna be worse if you run away from home . ”She sighed .

“What can I do?”Xia Dabai frowned slightly, “I don’t wanna leave you . ”

How could she bear being apart with him? She touched his tiny adorable face . “I’ll talk to your father later to find out whether you can stay here with me here . ”

“OK!” Xia Dabai nodded quickly . But the next second he became upset again . “But I miss him if I live with you . I don’t want to leave him, either . ”

“… …”

“Dabao, what about moving back together with me? I will miss uncle butler and other friends there… There are lots of people in the house . You won’t be lonely there . ”

“You decide . You can’t stay with both of us . ” Xia Xingchen walked back to the kitchen . “You can live here for a couple of days and then move back for a while . Or you decide who you want to live with most . No matter what, I won’t move back . ”

“Why not?” Xia Dabai followed her slowly in his ill-fitting slippers . “Are you still mad at Little Bai?”

“Nope . ”

“Then why?”

“That’s our problem . You won’t understand, boy . ”Xia Xingchen cut the drumsticks expertly and poured coke .

Xia Dabai asked for coke with his little hands waving . So she gave him a small glass of coke . He didn’t look up from his drink until he finished it . “Dabao, Little Bai likes you . Don’t be mad at him, OK?”

“No, I’m not mad at him . I just can’t move back . ”

“… …”Xia Dabai looked upset with his little head down . It was too hard for him to deal with both of them . What could he get in the end? A torn-apart family?

The more he thought about, the more upset he got . Other children were not like him at all! They all have a happy family!

“Sigh . What a life am I living!” He sighed, walking out of the kitchen .

Suddenly Xia Xingchen felt hurt .

Her little Dabai was always positive and sensible . He used to be satisfied with his single-parent family . But things were different now…

He started to expect more from the moment Bai Yeqing showed up .

……

Fortunately, nothing could affect children’s mood permanently . He became happy and positive again after eating up the ribs and drumsticks .

Xia Xingchen left the most delicious piece to him . It was dark outside when they finished dinner .

“You can watch TV for a while . I’ll take you to shopping later . ”She told him while cleaning up .

“Fine . Can I get some chips there?”

“OK . ”

“And preserved plums . ”

“Sure . ”

She could buy him anything as long as he’s happy . She helped him change his shoes after cleaning up the kitchen . He pushed the door and went out .

There was a man standing outside the door . She was shocked .

It was no other but Bai Yeqing .

He was wearing his suit with a cold look on his face as usual . Leng Fei didn’t come together with him, or maybe he’s waiting downstairs .

How could he be here?

“Little Bai?”Xia Dabai was shocked as well . He asked the question she wanted to ask . “What are you doing here?”

His gaze went from Xia Xingchen to his child . “I come to take you back . The butler told me you were here . ”

Xia Dabai frowned hearing this . “No, I won’t go . I told Dabao I would sleep here tonight!” Xia Dabai hugged her legs tightly .

“No, you can’t . You still have classes tomorrow morning . ” He refused .

He pouted and waved his hands to Xia Xingchen . Xia Xingchen picked him up . She said to Bai Yeqing, “I’ll send him back early tomorrow morning . Just leave him here . He even brought his pajamas . ”

She begged .

Bai Yeqing didn’t say anything with his mouth closed . She couldn’t know whether he agreed or not .

“Little Bai, you go back first . Dabao and I are going for a date now . You’ll turn her down by taking me back now . I can go back tomorrow . ”

He hoped his father wouldn’t do anything wrong .

“Date? Where?”he asked Xia Xingchen .

“We are going to the mall . I want to get him slippers and snacks . ”

He thought carefully and said . “I’ll go with you . ”

“I’m sorry?”Xia Xingchen thought she must have misheard .

He still looked indifferent . “I’ll take him home after shopping . ”

He walked directly to the elevator after saying that . He didn’t care whether they wanted this or not . Xia Xingchen was still shocked . She didn’t move until hearing him saying “why are you still standing over there?”
