Ye Xi was startled, he raised his head and looked over.

When he saw the man standing on the sofa beside him with both of his hands in his pockets, Ye Xi immediately stood up and looked at him in panic, "You, you're willing to come out?"

Huo Yaoting frowned, she pursed her lips and walked to the sofa at the other side and sat down, squinted her eyes and stared at Ye Xi.

Ye Xi looked at him with a wronged expression in her heart, but at this moment, she needed him even more. She needed him to give her a warm embrace.

She moved toward him, crouching beside his leg like a wounded animal, her head resting on his leg.

Huo Yaoting lowered his eyes and looked at her, the wrinkles on his forehead deepened.

In the end, he still reached out his hand and touched her head.

The moment Ye Xi saw him tonight, she could no longer hold back her tears and swatted them away.

Ye Xi's small shoulders twitched. Tears fell down her face, but she stubbornly refused to make a sound.

Huo Yaoting couldn't be stone-hearted in front of her. At this moment, when she had shed two tears, his heart ached for her and he couldn't take it anymore.

With a helpless sigh, Huo Yaoting reached out his hand, holding onto Ye Xi's trembling shoulder. Almost without using much strength, he brought her into his embrace.

Ye Xi leaned into his embrace and sobbed.

Huo Yaoting pressed his chin against her hair, one hand around her waist, and the other caressing her long hair.

After she cried for a while, she lowered her head and kissed her heart. "Don't cry anymore, huh?"

Ye Xi cried until her nose twitched, then hugged his neck, "Hug me tightly."

Huo Yaoting complied and hugged her tightly, lowering his dark pupils to look at her crying red eyes.

Ye Xi raised her head to look at him, her eyebrows knitted with regret and abandonment, choking on her sobs, "Hubby, tell me honestly, am I stupid?"

"?" The corner of Huo Yaoting's mouth twitched, but he couldn't help but chuckle, as he pinched the little cheeks she had puffed up, "Not bad, you also know your own limits."

"Ji

ian always said that my IQ was not high enough, and I was not convinced. Now, I realised that Ji

ian was completely correct, I was just stupid, and did not have a brain, that's why I was led away by the nose, and was harmed. I do not have a brain, sob sob, I do not have a brain ?"

Huo Yaoting's heart throbbed in pain. He put away the smile on the corner of his mouth, grabbed her chin with his palm, and stared straight at her with his deep black eyes, "Idiot ?"

"That's right. I'm just stupid. I was tricked by others, harmed by others, I ?"

When Ye Xi said till here, he suddenly stopped and looked at the man whose face had suddenly darkened.

Gently gritting his teeth, Ye Xi was so upset that her tears fell even more.

The atmosphere had suddenly turned into a deadlock because of the "cheated" coming from Ye Xi.

The arm he had placed on her waist was slowly loosening.

Ye Xi panicked to the extreme, she could not help but hold on tightly to his neck, her big red eyes begging as she looked at Huo Yaoting.

Huo Yaoting stared at her coldly.

Ye Xi took a deep breath miserably, biting his lower lip as he sobbed, "... "I'm sorry."

She didn't want to.

But the words came out of his mouth.

"I, I didn't mean to ?" Ye Xi carefully explained.

Huo Yaoting stared at her deeply, the expression in his eyes equally dark, causing others to not be able to tell what he was thinking.

After a while, he suddenly pulled his lips together and kissed her on the forehead. "Idiot."

Ye Xi's eyes froze as she looked at him, perturbed.

Huo Yaoting lowered his black eyelashes, and gently wiped the tears on her face with his fingers.

Ye Xi was embarrassed, "Hubby."

"Hmm?" Huo Yaoting lifted his black eyelashes and looked at her gently.

In his current state, Ye Xi's heart tightened even more. Her eyes reddened and she said anxiously, "I really did not do it on purpose. Really, believe me ?"

"Idiot." Huo Yaoting curled her lips, and the look in her eyes became even more protective.

Ye Xi was even more unsure about his current emotions. She pursed her lips and looked at him in confusion.

The depths of Huo Yaoting's eyes were dark and thick, filled with a cold aura.

However, there was an arc of light on the corner of his mouth as he said softly, "Is it still painful?"

"?" Ye Xi was startled and puzzled.

The smile on Huo Yaoting's face deepened.

Ye Xi's eyes flashed with shyness, her eyelashes drooped down wet, and she gently shook her head.

Huo Yaoting laughed, "Is that possible?"

Ye Xi's eyelashes fluttered intensely.

"That night can be, that night can be, right?

Ye Xi naturally knew what day the night he spoke of was.

Today, Ji

ian told her that he was the one who saved her.

Later on, when she thought about it, she could still vaguely remember ? The scene.

Ye Xi lowered her eyes, not daring to look at him as she said softly, "It's too late today."

"Who says it can't be too late?"

In the afternoon of the second day, Ji

ian sat cross-legged on the sofa, holding onto his arms that were full of grievances. His small mouth was puffed up as he glared at Ye Xi who was eating breakfast together with him in the canteen.

Ye Xi glanced at Ji

ian carefully as he ate, and said resentfully, "Darling, do you still want to eat more?"

Ji

ian snorted, "Ye Xi, I don't even know what to say to you."

"?" The corner of Ye Xi's mouth twitched, and he silently lowered his head to eat his.

Last night, she had toyed with someone for an entire night before she was allowed to rest in the early morning. However, she didn't expect to sleep until noon.

Because someone was going to the company, the little guy sat alone in the living room for the whole morning.

That was why he was feeling such grief right now.

At this moment, the little fellow's phone rang.

Ye Xi raised his head and looked at him from the bowl.

Ji

ian rolled her eyes as she answered the call with her chubby little hand, "Aunt Gu."

Gu Li?

Hearing that it was her, Ye Xi immediately took the bowl and walked to the sofa, and sat beside Ji

ian, staring at the small phone in Ji

ian's hands.

Ji

ian pursed his lips, but did not say anything.

"Mn, Mommy is fine ? You want to come over? OK... I'll get Mommy to send you the address. "Mhmm, it's a waste."

Ji

ian kept the phone and gave the small phone to Ye Xi.

Ye Xi licked his lips, accepted the phone, and placed the bowl on the table in front of the sofa.

After giving the address to Gu Li, Ye Xi leaned on the sofa and fell into a daze.

Ji

ian did not know what she was thinking, but she sat quietly for a few minutes, her big black eyes glanced at the tableware on the table, she frowned, then looked at Ye Xi and asked, "Are you not going to eat?"

Ye Xi looked at him in a daze as she shook her head.

Ji

ian pursed her lips, she stared at the table with her short legs and got off the sofa, her two tender little hands held onto the tableware on the table as she walked towards the dining hall.

Ye Xi looked at Ji

ian. He did not move, but his eyes were staring straight at Ji

ian.

Ji

ian placed the tableware on the table, then turned and walked in front of Ye Xi.

Seeing that he did not sit on the sofa, Ye Xi knew that the little guy missed her and hugged her.

After all, he was only two years old.

Ye Xi smiled, extended his hand and carried Ji

ian to sit on his lap, lowering his head and kissing his tender cheeks.

Ji

ian wiped his face with the back of his hand and glared at her: Ye Xi, you're so dirty.

"I'm dirty?" Ye Xi was so angry that she directly kissed him on both cheeks.

Ji

ian dodged left and right, but her drool still washed away his little face. He was so angry that his entire face darkened as he clenched his little fists and glared at her with his dead fish eyes.

His small act of helplessness towards her caused Ye Xi to laugh heartily.

Ji

ian was speechless.

Even at this moment, he felt that he wasn't her biological son!

After around 40 minutes, Ji

ian received another call from Gu Li, telling him that she was already at the apartment building, but that she was not allowed to enter while preserving her life.

There was no other way, Ye Xi had no choice but to bring Ji

ian down to pick him up.

As he walked to the apartment building, he saw two people wearing black suits with black earphones as they embraced Gu Li coldly.

Gu Li's face flushed red, she bared her fangs and brandished her claws, as though she wanted to beat someone up.

Ye Xi quickly carried Ji

ian and walked over.

When the two guards saw Ye Xi, they changed their attitude completely, and respectfully bowed their heads, "Madam."

Seeing the difference in attitude between the two, Gu Li was so angry that his neck became thick.

Ye Xi pulled Gu Li, "What's going on?"
