Chapter 1696 More Reliable than You

1st

The days passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, another week has passed.

Bai Xiaoxiao's original plan to travel with Wen Ran was ruined because the company temporarily received a big order.

Even on weekends, I had to work overtime.

I spent a whole day at the hotel on Saturday, and another half day on Sunday. At 3:30 in the afternoon, I finally finished my work.

After packing up the documents, I just picked up the water glass on the table. Before I could drink it, my cell phone rang at an inappropriate time.

"Hello!"

Bai Xiaoxiao drank water, put down the cup, and then pressed the answer button slowly.

"Xiaoxiao, are you done working overtime? I bought you some snacks and will deliver them to you later."

On the phone, Xiao Yuting's voice came happily.

Bai Xiaoxiao frowned slightly and refused without hesitation, "No, I have finished work and am ready to go home from get off work."

"Xiaoxiao, I will be at your company soon. Since you are off work, come down here. I will wait for you at the door of the company."

After saying that, Xiao Yuting hung up the phone.

Bai Xiaoxiao hesitated, turned off the computer, and walked out of the office.

Let the people outside get off work.

When he walked out of the company gate, he saw Xiao Yuting standing on the roadside, wearing a black leather jacket and black pants, standing in front of the car against the cold wind.

There has been cold air these days, and the weather forecast says there will still be snow in just these two days.

This is the first snow of the year.

Bai Xiaoxiao subconsciously gathered her clothes, pulled the scarf around her neck, and put her hands in her pockets to feel a little warmer.

"Xiaoxiao, get in the car first."

She walked up to Xiao Yuting, who smiled brightly at her, immediately opened the car door and let her get in the car.

Bai Xiaoxiao sat in the passenger seat.

The heater in the car was always on, and as soon as I got in the car, I felt a warm feeling on my face.

The coldness on her body was also driven away.

Xiao Yuting closed the car door for her, then walked around the car and got into the driver's seat.

He turned around and took a box of cheesecake and a cup of milk tea from the back seat.

"Eat something, it will warm you up."

"All right."

After buying everything, Bai Xiaoxiao didn't need to be polite to him. She took it, opened the cake, and took a small bite.

"I was originally worried that you wouldn't be able to finish the work and wouldn't be able to go to City B tomorrow."

When Xiao Yuting saw Bai Xiaoxiao take a bite, the smile in his eyes became even stronger.

The look in her eyes did not hide his pleasure.

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled softly, "I won't delay my business trip tomorrow, but it seems like there will be snow tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

"That's just right. I'll watch the first snowfall with you."

The corners of Xiao Yuting's lips raised, and a bright smile bloomed on his handsome face.

Bai Xiaoxiao glared at him, "I don't want to see the first snowfall with you."

"Xiaoxiao, didn't you like watching the first snowfall every year with me? Although it's a few years late, it's not too late now."

"..."

Bai Xiaoxiao looked out the car window speechlessly and did not answer.

Xiao Yuting didn't care and smiled to himself, "The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried. You can really consider me. It will give you one more choice and one more chance of happiness."

“It would be dazzling to have too many choices, not to mention, I don’t have the habit of looking back.”

"Xiaoxiao, if you do this, I will be very sad."

"I eat cake."

Bai Xiaoxiao raised the cake in her hand to signal him to shut up.

Xiao Yuting smiled helplessly and stopped talking.

Twenty minutes later, Xiao Yuting's car stopped in front of Bai Xiaoxiao's house.

"Xiaoxiao, don't you invite me to come in and sit for a while?"

Xiao Yuting turned sideways and looked at Bai Xiaoxiao with burning eyes.

Bai Xiaoxiao took off her seat belt and said calmly, "It's too cold, so I won't invite you in. Thank you for sending me back."

"Xiao Xiao."

Xiao Yuting sighed softly, the luster in his eyes dimmed, and he stared at her with some loss.

Bai Xiaoxiao blinked her eyes and pursed her lips without speaking.

"Xiaoxiao, tell the truth, is that Meng Ke really better than me? Do you like him more now than you did me back then?"

Xiao Yuting put his long arms on Bai Xiaoxiao's seat and leaned forward slightly. He was half a head taller, so his masculine aura enveloped Bai Xiaoxiao.

Bai Xiaoxiao frowned and subconsciously leaned back a little.

Put some distance between you and Xiao Yuting.

She smiled and said, "You and Meng Ke are different types of people and cannot be compared. As for my liking for him, it is based on marriage."

The implication is that the initial obsession with him, Xiao Yuting, was due to the girl's ignorance.

Xiao Yuting was really hurt this time.

His expression changed, "Xiao Xiao, although Meng Ke is not as ridiculous as I was back then, he still has a past. He and Xu Wanqi are the best examples."

"In comparison, Meng Ke is still more reliable than you."

Bai Xiaoxiao didn't seem to care about Meng Ke and Xu Wanqi.

Xiao Yuting felt a little weak.

"last question."

He raised his index finger, pursed his lips, and then asked, "Have you and Meng Ke's wedding date been set?"

"No."

Bai Xiaoxiao answered truthfully.

She can completely ignore Xiao Yuting, because she doesn't have the slightest feeling for Xiao Yuting now.

It was impossible for her to fall in love with Xiao Yuting again.

I don’t know why, but I’m so sure.

But she still answered, maybe because Xiao Yuting was related to Luo Haofeng, and subconsciously, Bai Xiaoxiao was still expecting something.

"Okay, I'll wait for you here at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. Don't be late."

Xiao Yuting shrugged and took back his hand on her seat.

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Bye."

Waving to Xiao Yuting, she opened the door and got out of the car.

**

The next morning, Bai Xiaoxiao walked out of the house with her luggage and saw Meng Ke and Xiao Yuting waiting at her door.

She blinked in surprise. Xiao Yuting was waiting for her here as agreed yesterday afternoon.

But Meng Ke, wasn’t he on a business trip?

How would it appear here.

Moreover, he didn't even enter the house, but waited outside.

"Xiaoxiao, I was worried that I would be late when I got back and wouldn't be able to take you to the airport. Fortunately, you guys didn't leave early."

Meng Ke came forward with a smile and reached out to take the suitcase from Bai Xiaoxiao's hand.

Xiao Yuting stood in front of the car, with a half-smile on his lips.

"Don't you have to come back tomorrow? Why did you come back early?"

Bai Xiaoxiao walked beside Meng Ke.

"It will take several days for you to come back from your business trip. If I don't come back today, it will take several days before I can see you."

Meng Ke's words revealed his longing for her, and the smile in his eyes became gentler as he spoke.

"Then why didn't you go into the house?"

"I just arrived. I saw Mr. Xiao waiting for you here, so I chatted with him for a few words. If you don't come out, I will go in to find you."

Meng Ke carried Bai Xiaoxiao's luggage to Xiao Yuting's car and did not stop. Instead, he turned to Xiao Yuting and said, "Mr. Xiao, I will take Xiaoxiao to the airport, but she won't take your car."
