Chapter 1621 Don’t Come Back Too Late
1st time back
Bai Xiaoxiao's eyes flashed, and when she was about to speak, Bai's father spoke before her, "Xiaoxiao, did Xiao Meng call you and ask you to go out? Then go quickly."
"Ah, it's Xiao Meng who's looking for you!"
When Bai's mother heard that Bai's father said it was Xiao Meng, a smile immediately broke out on her face.
"Absolutely. Xiao Meng will send our Xiaoxiao back to rest in the afternoon. He will definitely call us now to ask if Xiaoxiao is awake."
Bai Xiaoxiao laughed and said, "Mom, Meng Ke just called me."
"Then go quickly."
Bai Mu waved her hand at Bai Xiaoxiao, signaling her not to keep Meng Ke waiting.
Bai Xiaoxiao ran downstairs and was stopped by Bai Mu who went up to the second floor.
"Xiaoxiao, don't come back too late."
"Ok, I know."
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled at Bai Mu and ran into the living room.
Because it was said that Meng Ke was looking for her, Bai Xiaoxiao didn't drive and called a taxi.
While she was waiting for the bus on the side of the road, a Land Rover drove over and slowly stopped in front of her. A surprised voice came from the driver's seat, "Xiaoxiao, it's really you. When did you return to China?" "
Bai Xiaoxiao had just used her hands to block the light of the car lights in front of her. Now she heard the sound and raised her head to look at the man in the driver's seat.
It turned out to be Xiao Yuting, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
He was wearing a suit and leather collar, and his hair was so slicked that even flies couldn't crawl on it.
Both his words, deeds, and appearance are much more mature than before.
Sure enough, time is the best sculptor.
"What a coincidence, is this what you are doing?"
Bai Xiaoxiao looked at Xiao Yuting doubtfully.
Xiao Yuting smiled and said, "Xiao Xiao, where are you going? Get in the car first."
"Oh, I've already called a taxi." Bai Xiaoxiao shook her head apologetically.
Xiao Yuting frowned when he heard she called a taxi. He got out of the car and opened the passenger door for her, "Get in the car. It's not safe to take a taxi at night, especially for girls."
Bai Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, then bent down and got into the car.
Xiao Yuting closed the car door for her, then walked around to the other side and got into the car.
On the second floor, at a certain window, Bai's father and Bai's mother were standing in front of the window until they saw Bai Xiaoxiao get into the car. A man opened the door for her and then got into the driver's seat.
Far away, it was night again, and from the back, he looked like Meng Ke.
In their opinion, that was Meng Ke.
"Xiaoxiao, when did you come back?"
As the car got on the road, Xiao Yuting turned to look at Bai Xiaoxiao in the passenger seat and asked with a smile.
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled, "I just got home at noon today. Have you changed cars?"
The cars Xiao Yuting used to drive were much more showy than this Land Rover.
Xiao Yuting nodded, "Change it. That car was too ostentatious. I like this Land Rover quite a lot. I saw someone like you from a distance just now. I wasn't sure yet. I didn't expect it was really you."
After a slight pause, Xiao Yuting looked at Bai Xiaoxiao through the mirror, the smile on his eyebrows spreading, "I haven't seen you for three years, Xiaoxiao, you are more beautiful than before."
"Thank you for the compliment, you are even more handsome."
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled and praised back, Xiao Yuting's eyes flashed and he laughed loudly.
"Why are you laughing? Did I say something wrong?"
Bai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but frowned when Xiao Yuting smiled in confusion.
Xiao Yuting hurriedly shook his head, "No, Xiaoxiao, you won't go abroad again when you come back this time, right? Uncle Bai has been in poor health for the past two years, will you take over the company?"
"Well, I'm back. Of course I can't make my dad work so hard anymore."
When it comes to serious matters, Bai Xiaoxiao also calms down.
"You came back just in time. I should have signed the contract with you this time."
Xiao Yuting's eyes flashed with joy.
Bai Xiaoxiao blinked and stared at his suit and leather collar, "Does Uncle Xiao not care about the company now?"
"I have stopped caring about it for a long time. I have been managing the company for the past two years. It was too ridiculous before, but now I feel that life has some meaning."
The two chatted for about ten minutes, and Bai Xiaoxiao suddenly said, "Put me down at the intersection ahead."
"Before, have you made an appointment with someone? I'm still thinking, if you haven't made an appointment, let's find a place to have a cup of coffee and have a good chat."
Xiao Yuting's eyes flashed with disappointment, but the smile on his face remained unchanged.
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "I made an appointment, let's do it next time. Didn't you just say that we should ask me to sign our contract this time? There are plenty of opportunities."
"Yes, but can you do it tomorrow? If you have time, I will treat you to dinner tomorrow."
"Sorry, I have to go to my boyfriend's house tomorrow."
Although Bai Xiaoxiao said apologetic words, she did not show any apology on her face.
Xiao Yuting suddenly realized, "Are you talking about Meng Ke? Uncle Bai and Aunt Bai both like Meng Ke very much. When you come back this time, you won't be forced to get married, right?"
"not yet."
Bai Xiaoxiao looked out the car window and said, "Stop right in front."
Xiao Yuting parked the car, and before Bai Xiaoxiao got out, he asked with concern, "Xiaoxiao, how long do you need? I'll pick you up soon."
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled and shook her head, "No, my friend will take me home later."
***
It was already half past nine in the evening when Wen Ran received Bai Xiaoxiao's call.
She had just taken a bath and was lying on the bed. Mo Xiuchen was still in the children's room, coaxing his two precious daughters to sleep.
"Of course, where are you now?"
Hearing Bai Xiaoxiao's words, Wen Ran was startled. She was leaning on the bedside and suddenly sat up straight, "Xiaoxiao, are you out?"
"Yes, I'm on the roadside, about to take a taxi to your house. Didn't you say that Mo Xiuchen cooked the food himself?"
Bai Xiaoxiao's voice was vaguely filled with the sound of a car horn.
As soon as she heard it, she knew she was really out there.
Wen Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "My eldest lady, what time is it? There are no dishes anywhere, and there is no even dishwater."
"I don't care, I want to eat anyway."
Bai Xiaoxiao was reluctant, and Wen Ran found it funny, "Then tell me where you are now, and I'll ask Qingfeng to pick you up."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Ran immediately went to the children's room to find Mo Xiuchen.
Mo Xiuchen was sitting on the edge of the bed, telling Momo a story, while Xinxin seemed to have fallen asleep.
Seeing her come in, Mo Xiuchen smiled tenderly at her and walked Wen Ran to the bed, "Xiao Xiao will come home soon."
"ah?"
Mo Xiuchen was patting Mo Mo when he heard Wen Ran's words and didn't react for a moment.
Wen Ran knelt down in front of the bed, reached out to hold Mo Mo's extended hand, and said softly, "Xiao Xiao called me just now, and I asked Qing Feng to pick her up. Well, didn't Luo Haofeng want to see Xiao Xiao? ?”
"But Ah Feng has returned to City B."
Mo Xiuchen frowned, his tone slightly regretful.
Wen Ran pursed her lips, "Maybe he didn't go back. He came to G City to see Xiaoxiao. If he doesn't see her now, he may not go back."
Mo Xiuchen said thoughtfully, "That makes sense. Then I'll call A Feng to see if he's still in G City and ask him to come over."
