Chapter 1496 Waiting for the rabbit
"Second Master, it's quite rare to find someone as universally disliked as you. Don't be so obnoxious, or even animals will avoid you in the end," Bai Xin'ai said with a cold snort, her face long.
Zhuang Shijue suddenly scratched his ear. Why did this sound so familiar?
"Beast Bai Xin'ai?" Zhuang Shijue raised an eyebrow.
Bai Xin'ai was speechless, staring at Zhuang Shijue for a long time without being able to utter a word. This guy's mouth... it really is...
Zhuang Shijue shrugged. "Who just said that beasts would avoid me? If you're not a beast, then you'd better not hide from me."
"You..." Bai Xin'ai was so angry she stammered. Zhuang Shijue immediately stepped forward to comfort the beauty, "I was wrong, okay? Hit me, hit me..."
He grabbed Bai Xin'ai's hand with a grin and slapped his own face; his shameless manner was so irritating it was painful to look at.
The moment Bai Xinai pulled her hand away, there was a crisp "bang," and she slapped him hard across the face.
He quickly stepped back, "What, you dare to say it but not to admit it?"
Zhuang Shijue touched his sore face and looked at Bai Xin'ai with a glint in his eyes. This was the second woman to slap him; the first was Fatty Mu.
Well, in such a short time, he actually thought of that fat woman twice.
Bai Xin'ai looked at Zhuang Shijue's fluctuating expression, said nothing, and carried the bucket into the house.
Zhuang Shijue was followed by someone with his head hanging low. Bai Xin'ai turned around and glanced at him. He actually behaved after being slapped? It seems she'll have to slap him more often in the future. No, force is reciprocal. If she slaps him, her hand will hurt too. She'll have to be prepared to swat him with a fly swatter at any time.
"Who's going to pick up the son?" Zhuang Shijue asked casually as he entered the room.
It recovered in an instant, so fast that it was hard to react, and one would think that what they had just seen was a hallucination.
Bai Xin'ai did not respond and was not going to pay any attention to her.
Zhuang Shijue chuckled to himself and said, "I'll go instead. I need to take my son out for a treat. The food here is terrible. The child looks like a bean sprout. No matter how bad it is, we can't let the child suffer."
Bai Xin'ai paused, probably wanting to argue about the food issue, but then thought, isn't this guy just deliberately trying to cause trouble? Why bother with him?
Zhuang Shijue drove out at 3 p.m. It was quite far to pick up the child from here, and they lived in a very remote area. The school had suggested more than once that the child stay at school and be picked up by his parents on weekends, but Bai Xin'ai had refused each time.
After Zhuang Shijue drove away, Bai Xin'ai also drove off, leaving the aunt to take care of herself, as they probably wouldn't be back that night.
Bai Xin'ai managed to extract Zhuang Shiyuan's whereabouts from Zhuang Shijue. She knew Zhuang Shiyuan wasn't at the Zhuang family home, otherwise she wouldn't have stopped looking for Mu Ning these past few days. Knowing where Zhuang Shiyuan was, she would naturally go there; she had returned specifically to find him.
Dr. Lin's home is very close to his private clinic. Dr. Lin is from Guo Mu's wife's family, and they are all acquaintances.
Zhuang Shiyuan moved in with Dr. Lin, and his main task each day was to exercise. Of course, avoiding his family made everything easier. It wasn't that he didn't know his father had people watching him, but those watching him couldn't be there every second; there were always times when he could move around.
Some things were a thorn in his side, like who orchestrated the car accident years ago. And how much more was Zhuang Shijue hiding? What he had revealed was far more than what he had seen; besides the Chen Palace, what else was there?
Of course, Zhuang Shiyuan didn't care how much private property Zhuang Shijue owned; he only cared about who Zhuang Shijue associated with closely, because that was the real threat to him.
Zhuang Shiyuan has been staying with Dr. Lin for three months, but has not mentioned when he will leave.
If the young master doesn't leave, how can Dr. Lin kick him out?
Bai Xin'ai parked her car outside the residential area where Dr. Lin lived. This wasn't her first time here. She had come several times since she learned that Zhuang Shiyuan lived here, but she had never seen him appear.
Living here means you'll appear here. Waiting passively for something to happen is a bit foolish, but it's a very effective method.
Zhuang Shiyuan actually went out today. Mu Ning's semester has ended, and she's been feeling bored staying at home all the time, so he's planning to take his mother to a warmer place for a vacation. So, he went to the mall to buy some things and also bought Mu Ning a pair of soft running shoes. After packing them, he's ready to head back to the Zhuang family home.
It's not far away; Huadu Shopping Mall is right across from the residential area, just a short walk away.
Bai Xin'ai leaned on the steering wheel, lost in thought, both expectant and afraid, wondering what she should say if she could see him today.
When she looked up and saw the man walking out of the community gate, her eyes widened for a moment, then her face lit up with joy. She immediately got out of the car, paused, then turned around and looked down at the reflection of the man in the car window. She tidied her hair, applied lipstick, and then ran quickly towards Zhuang Shiyuan.
"Shiyuan, Shiyuan is me!"
Bai Xin'ai appeared before Zhuang Shiyuan with a flustered look in her eyes. Her sudden appearance had even caused her hair to be slightly disheveled.
Zhuang Shiyuan frowned slightly as his gaze met Bai Xin'ai's burning eyes.
The next moment, he suddenly reached out, his strong arm encircling her entire body, his other hand gripping her shoulder, and with a powerful force, he pulled her away from the street in an instant, finally bringing her to a stop on the side of the street amidst the howling cold wind.
Bai Xin'ai instinctively reached out and gripped Zhuang Shiyuan's clothes tightly, gazing at him intently. Almost simultaneously, a sports car drove past the spot where the two had just been standing.
"Shiyuan, you saved me again." Bai Xin'ai murmured, gripping his clothes even tighter, gazing at him with adoring eyes.
Zhuang Shiyuan had already let go, and although he tried to block her hand, he couldn't. To avoid excessive physical contact, he let his hand hang down.
"Miss Bai, please let go first," Zhuang Shiyuan said in a low voice.
Bai Xin'ai shook her head, "Why won't you look at me? Shiyuan, I've come back to you with our child. Shiyuan, Huihui is our child, it's true, everything I'm saying is true. If you don't believe me, we can take Huihui for a paternity test; he really is your child. Shiyuan, our son is already six years old, Shiyuan..."
"Miss Bai, please have some self-respect!" Zhuang Shiyuan said coldly, forcefully pushing her hand away and leaving with a sullen face.
Bai Xin'ai quickly caught up and grabbed Zhuang Shiyuan's arm: "Shiyuan, why don't you believe me? It really wasn't my choice back then, I was forced, really, Zhuang Shijue drugged me, I don't know anything, you have to believe me..."
Zhuang Shiyuan ruthlessly pushed Bai Xin'ai's hand away. "Miss Bai, what happened back then is no longer important. We were never truly together, and even if we made a promise, it was never kept..."
"But you want me." Bai Xin'ai shouted out desperately, interrupting him, and looked at him.
