Capítulo 1654: Chapter 1653: eting His Gentle Gaze
When Bai Xiaoxiao arrived at the hospital, she was alone.
Wen Ran, Jing Xiaocha, and An Lin were all in Bai Yiyi’s hospital room.
“Xiaoxiao, where’s Li Shi Yao? Didn’t she co with you?”
An Lin smiled as she saw Bai Xiaoxiao co in alone and asked.
Jing Xiaocha took the gift from Bai Xiaoxiao’s hand and set it aside.
Bai Xiaoxiao moved to the bedside and sat on the chair next to Wen Ran, answering slowly, “She went to the welfare institute and asked to bring the gift. Yiyi, these gifts are from ng Ke’s mother.”
“I thought she would co with you.”
Wen Ran smiled and said, “Seems like your charm still falls short of a handso guy’s.”
When Bai Xiaoxiao called Jing Xiaocha, she was already in this hospital room. Wen Ran and An Lin knew.
Bai Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow nonchalantly, “Maybe, when she saw Jin Zheyu at the welfare institute, she couldn’t move.”
“Xiaoxiao, why didn’t you let Li Shi Yao co with you?”
An Lin looked at Bai Xiaoxiao with a teasing expression, drawing several gazes to Bai Xiaoxiao.
“Mo Xiuchen and Luo Haofeng are all in my brother’s office, do you want to go over?”
Wen Ran’s words imdiately earned a glare from Bai Xiaoxiao.
Bai Yiyi chuckled, “Ranran, why don’t you accompany Xiaoxiao, there’s nothing much here and you don’t all need to keep company.”
“Sister Wen, Sister Bai, you should go, I’ll stay here with Sister An Lin.”
Jing Xiaocha also chid in.
“Xiaoxiao, let’s go see your godson, Momo and Xinxin are sleeping at ho, Ziyi ca with us to the hospital.”
“Ziyi ca with you to the hospital?”
Bai Xiaoxiao was a bit surprised.
Before she arrived at the hospital, she thought those three little ones would all co with Wen Ran and Mo Xiuchen.
But when she arrived, the little ones were nowhere to be seen, so she thought they must be at ho.
Wen Ran laughed and said, “Momo and Xinxin took a nap, Ziyi didn’t want to sleep and wanted to see his brother, so we brought him.”
“Alright then, I’ll go play with my godson.”
Bai Xiaoxiao saw that the hospital room didn’t need her, so she left with Wen Ran.
“Ranran, I know what you an.”
The quiet corridor was just the two of them, Bai Xiaoxiao’s voice soft yet clear in Wen Ran’s ears.
Wen Ran paused.
She looked up and t Bai Xiaoxiao’s gaze.
The smile on her face faded, with a trace of subtle lancholy in her eyes, Wen Ran understood her words, her heart slightly tightened.
“Xiaoxiao.”
She called gently.
She had those thoughts because Mo Xiuchen and Gu Kai both sided with Luo Haofeng, she wavered.
Feeling that if Luo Haofeng and Bai Xiaoxiao could overco those obstacles, becoming a couple, she’d be happier than she’d be with ng Ke.
Because the person Bai Xiaoxiao cared about was not ng Ke.
“Ranran, my mom reminded again this morning.”
Bai Xiaoxiao forced a smile, tinged with bitterness.
Wen Ran pressed her lips and asked softly, “What did Aunt Qiao say? Does she know Luo Haofeng ca to G City?”
“It’s just a guess, given how close Luo Haofeng and Mo Xiuchen are, he was bound to co for Momo’s and others’ birthdays.”
At the elevator, Bai Xiaoxiao pointed to the staircase ahead to Wen Ran, and they bypassed the elevator and headed directly for the stairs.
“So Aunt Qiao advised you to avoid contact with Luo Haofeng?”
Wen Ran guessed what Mother Bai might have said.
Bai Xiaoxiao nodded, “Yes, my mom only wants what’s best for , she fears that if things get tangled between and Luo Haofeng, his mom might pull so stunts again.”
She spoke lightly.
With ease and a faint smile.
But Wen Ran frowned gently.
In the stairwell, only their footsteps echoed, for a mont, neither spoke.
Descending a few steps, Wen Ran softly asked, “Xiaoxiao, what do you think?”
“?”
Bai Xiaoxiao replied with a feigned lightness, “I never had a chance with him, I never even thought about having anything more.”
Just hope he is happy.
To love soone, if you can’t be together despite your efforts, all you can do is wish them well.
“I’ve got it, Xiaoxiao, whatever choice you make, I’ll support you.”
Wen Ran’s eyes softened with a gentle smile.
She had seen Luo Haofeng’s mother in a frenzy once, and it led to her premature birth.
But she never regretted stopping Mother Luo then; she couldn’t imagine if she hadn’t stopped her, if Mother Bai’s face had been scarred…
The grudge between Luo Haofeng and Bai Xiaoxiao would have been far more complicated.
Now when they et, they can exchange a few words and still be friends; perhaps that’s the best outco.
**
Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao arrived outside Gu Kai’s Office, hearing laughter and teasing inside.
It seed like they were amusing Ziyi.
Once at the door, as Wen Ran was about to push it open, it swung open from the inside.
“Ranran, Xiaoxiao.”
Standing inside was Luo Haofeng.
His tall figure stepped aside with a smile, inviting Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao in.
“Such considerate service.”
Wen Ran teased, pulling Bai Xiaoxiao inside.
Standing before the coffee table, Ziyi saw them and his handso face brightened with joy, his small voice chirping, “Mom, godmother.”
“Ziyi seems to have grown even more handso today.”
At the sofa, Bai Xiaoxiao gently lifted Ziyi onto the sofa and sat with him.
Ziyi was busy with a puzzle, and once he was on the sofa he couldn’t reach it, pointing at the coffee table puzzle, “Co over too.”
“Haha.”
Bai Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but laugh, handing him the puzzle, “Ziyi, your puzzle ca over.”
“If only it could move on its own.”
Ziyi frowned, wishing whatever he thought would co true.
Luo Haofeng’s upright figure remained at the door, not moving towards the sofa with Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao, instead watching the conversation between Bai Xiaoxiao and Ziyi with gentle eyes.
Facing her radiant smile, he felt a brief spell of distraction.
He hadn’t seen her smile so brightly for a long ti.
He wished for ti to stop at this mont, so he could forever watch her radiant smile.
anwhile, Wen Ran was pulled to sit beside Mo Xiuchen.
“Godmother, that one, that one.”
Ziyi’s quick actions commanded Bai Xiaoxiao to hand over which puzzle piece next.
Watching his skill, Bai Xiaoxiao saw him complete the puzzle within two minutes, her smile growing brighter, as radiant as the sun.
With a slight raise of her eyes, Bai Xiaoxiao suddenly realized sothing, turning her head towards the door, eting the long-waited gentle gaze of that person.
