After Leng Yi Xuan was done eating, Xue Ping went to set off a kite with him. Le Yao Yao remained in the pavilion and peeled an apple with a small knife.
Suddenly, Leng Yi Xuan fell down and began to cry.
Le Yao Yao was so concerned that she accidentally slit her finger with the knife. She ran to her son. “Are you alright? Let mommy see!”
Le Yao Yao was anxiously checking Leng Yi Xuan from top to bottom.
When Leng Yi Xuan saw how his mother was tearing up, he stopped crying. Instead, he reached out his smooth white hand and gently touched his mother’s face. He wrinkled his nose and whispered in his baby voice. “Mommy, don’t cry. Xuan’er only fell down. It is not painful anymore, so please don’t cry…”
“Eh…?” Le Yao Yao didn’t even realized she had tears streaming down her face. She wiped her tears away and smiled, “Alright. Mommy will stop crying. So Xuan’er must stop crying too! Are you in pain? Mommy will blow it for you. After blowing it, it won’t hurt anymore.”
Leng Yi Xuan didn’t want to worry his mother so he shook his head.
He’s obviously in pain, yet he’s denying it.
This reminded Le Yao Yao of Yu. Without saying a word, she picked him up and carried her son into the pavilion.
At this moment, a figure in white appeared. “So there you are!”
“Uncle Bai!”
Hearing the gentle voice, Leng Yi Xuan instantly turned around and burst into a brilliant smile as he got up to hug Dongfang Bai’s leg.
Dongfang Bai smiled and picked Yi Xuan up onto his shoulders. Leng Yi Xuan loved to sit on people’s shoulders because it made him feel like an adult; he could see so much further!
So, Leng Yi Xuan began to giggle. “Hehe! Uncle Bai is the best!”
Seeing Leng Yi Xuan’s smiling face, Dongfang Bai’s smile deepened.
They played until they were tired. Then, Xue Ping picked Yi Xuan up for his afternoon nap. Now, Le Yao Yao and Dongfang Bai were the only ones left in the pavilion.
“Brother Bai, in three months, you’ve lost so much weight!”
Le Yao Yao knew Dongfang Bai had constantly been searching for her sister all these years. Although Dongfang Bai was already rich as the country and had opened multiple medical clinics, he had never stopped searching for his sister.
There were sources that stated his sister was kidnapped into the ancient kingdom of Khotan. Currently, he had sent many people to search in that area.
But based on how worn out he looked, Le Yao Yao knew his sister wasn’t found yet. So, she immediately tried to comfort him.
“Brother Bai, although it’s important to find your sister, you must also take good care of your health. God will have a plan. For a good person like you, I’m sure God will take good care of you.”
“Haha. Thanks for always encouraging me, Yao Yao.” Dongfang Bai smiled and felt warm on the inside.
Dongfang Bai noticed a small knife on the table. Since he was bored, he randomly picked it up and started playing with it. But when he noticed the bloodstain on the knife, his eyebrows crinkled.
Then, he looked at Le Yao Yao and saw the blood streaming down her hand. Without thinking about it, he seized her hand.
“How could you be so careless? You cut your hand!”
Le Yao Yao didn’t even really notice until now. After all, her mind was only filled with her son. She thought he was injured.
Now that Dongfang Bai mentioned it, her face froze and she looked down. Although she didn’t cut her hand too deeply, it was still rather bloody because she never suppressed her wound. Now, her hand was dripping with blood.
The blood was dripping on the table and into a cup…
No wonder her hand felt wet!
Le Yao Yao was surprised but she acted like it wasn’t a big deal because she didn’t want to worry Dongfang Bai.
“Brother Bai, it’s just a bit of blood. Don’t worry.”
Dongfang Bai glared at her.
Le Yao Yao couldn’t help but smile. After all, it was a rare sight to see an elegant man glaring.
Dongfang Bai was mesmerized by Le Yao Yao’s gorgeous smile. He couldn’t shift his eyes away. He dropped the knife without noticing. It wasn’t until he felt pain that he snapped out of it.
“Ahhh! Brother Bai! Your hand is bleeding!”
“Eh…?”
Hearing this, Dongfang Bai stared as his blood slowly rolled down from him palm onto the table and into a cup…”
“Brother Bai! You’re too careless!” Le Yao Yao frowned.
When Dongfang Bai saw this, he didn’t feel the pain anymore.
Because, he felt like the luckiest man on Earth whenever Le Yao Yao showed any signs of care and affection towards him.
In the past, he thought he lost his chance to Yu. But now that Leng Jun Yu was dead, he felt as if God had given him another chance.
He will cherish and treasure every opportunity he had with her.
Although Le Yao Yao had already swore to remain a widow for life, he wasn’t afraid. After all, if you put your heart into it, you can split metals and rocks.
One day, Le Yao Yao will see that I’m worthy of her love!
While Dongfang Bai was deep in though, suddenly, Le Yao Yao’s astonished voice entered his ears.
“Brother Bai! Take a look! Why is our blood merging together?”
