Chapter 565: Chapter 565: He Broke the Appointnt
The little guy was just about to say he didn’t need it, but his stomach inconveniently let out a few "grumble grumble" noises.
He smiled awkwardly, and in the end, Ye Xinluo coaxed him a bit before he obediently started eating.
"Mommy, why aren’t you eating?"
Ye Xinluo smiled and replied, "I’m waiting for your daddy to co back... you eat quickly, and mommy will give you a bath afterward."
"Okay." He picked up a piece of rib and put it in his mouth, eating it with great enjoynt. Once the little guy finished eating, she carried him back to the room, found so clean clothes, and gave him a bath...
A fragrant Jingxi lay on the bed, snuggling in Ye Xinluo’s arms, wrapping his arms around her waist, and sweetly smiled, "Mommy, will you stay here with ?"
"Okay." She smiled indulgently, "Sleep now, mommy will stay here with you."
Jingxi closed his eyes, resting his little head on her body, and perhaps because kids his age don’t have many worries, he fell asleep soon after...
Looking at the little guy sleeping soundly, she lowered her head and planted a goodnight kiss on his forehead. Gently prying open his little hand, she tucked him into the blanket, turned off the bedside lamp, and then left the room...
Returning to the living room, she glanced at the ti; it was already half-past nine, and she had lost her appetite, so she cleaned up the things on the table.
Sitting on the sofa, hugging a throw pillow, she watched TV aimlessly...
At ten o’clock sharp, she glanced at the entrance, but Beichen Rui hadn’t co back; at eleven, there was still no sign of a car driving into the yard; midnight...
The clock on the wall pointed to midnight. Ye Xinluo leaned on the sofa, and besides the sound from the TV, there was no other noise...
During this ti, she called Beichen Rui several tis, asking where he was and when he would be ho, but each ti no one answered, and eventually, the call would automatically disconnect...
She stared blankly at the TV screen, which was showing an intense scene where the male protagonist was proposing to the female protagonist, who cried with tears like rain...
She didn’t know how long she zoned out, not even realizing the TV series had ended. Turning her head, she looked at the entrance again, and still, there was no movent...
He clearly promised when he left in the afternoon, promised to co ho early, but now there was no sign of him... In the past, Beichen Rui would co back right after work and would refuse evening engagents completely... What happened today?
He ultimately broke his promise...
Eventually unable to resist her drowsiness, she fell asleep crookedly on the sofa, hugging the throw pillow.
At two-thirty in the morning, the gate automatically opened, and Beichen Rui parked the car and stepped into the house.
As soon as he changed his shoes, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the light of the TV still on in the living room, with the screen all snowy since the programs had ended...
He walked into the living room and looked down at the sofa. Ye Xinluo was holding a pillow, her body crookedly slumped on the sofa. Perhaps because she was a bit uncomfortable sleeping, her brows were slightly furrowed, and her little face was scrunched up.
He squatted down beside her and gently called her na, "Xinluo?"
Half a minute later, Ye Xinluo groggily woke up. Seeing the man’s face in front of her, she blurted out almost without hesitation, "You’re back? Are you hungry? I prepared so food for you."
Saying that, she was about to get up and prepare sothing for him. Beichen Rui reached out and grabbed her wrist, "I’ve already eaten."
Hearing his words, Ye Xinluo paused in her movent to head to the kitchen, turned her head, looked into his eyes for a long mont, then smiled and asked, "What did you eat? With whom? Was there work, is that why you’re so late today?"
