C160 The Elevator Malfunctioned

Xia Dong nodded and touched her abdomen with her right hand, "It has been three months. "

He looked like he was struck by lightning. His face was pale as he stiffly let go of her, "The child is Beitang Shen's? Do you love him?"

Xia Dong did not know how to answer him. If she wanted him to give up, she should answer him. But she did not want to use Beitang Shen as a shield.

"Why didn't you answer me?" He shouted excitedly, "Do you know how much courage I mustered to dare confess to you? Don't tell me you're not willing to give me even a reason? "

She raised her head to look at him. The dim light cast a clearly extinguished shadow on her face. "My heart has already been handed over to the three children. I don't have the extra energy to talk about feelings anymore. Fox, let's be friends. . . "

She picked up the umbrella, wanting to leave.

He suddenly grabbed her hand," You really can't? "

"I'm sorry. " Other than these three words, she didn't know what else she could say.

He let go of her hand inch by inch. He saw her holding an umbrella and walking further and further under the streetlights. The pattering rain had unknowingly become dense and fell into the lake. The lanterns were extinguished one by one, and only a lonely lamp was left floating in the lake. . .

Baili Yun watched her figure disappear into the night. His mood was terrible to the extreme. He had failed. Could it be that he could only give up on her?

After walking far away, the tears in Xia Dong's eyes slid down.

She was really foolish. The fox liked her for five years but she did not see it. Or rather, she clearly saw it but pretended not to know. It was because she craved his elegance and the warmth he gave her. . .

A figure approached her. She jumped in shock and looked up abruptly. She saw Baili Han's familiar face. He held a black umbrella and seemed to have merged with the night sky.

"Why are you here?"

Baili Han looked at her. His handsome face looked very handsome under the dim light. His whole body was cold. "Just walk around. "

One had to know that it would take an hour to drive from his house to this place. He really knew how to walk around casually.

The two of them were silent. Unknowingly, they had already walked to the bottom of her house. She said slowly, "I'll go up first. "

His voice was cold. "You don't want to invite me up to have a seat?"

. . . "" From a polite point of view, she should have invited him up to have a seat. However, their current situation seemed to be very awkward.

"I'll send you up. " Before she could say anything against it, he had already made a decision for her.

He took the lead to enter the elevator and pressed the button to wait for her.

The number on the floor was jumping. When the number showed up to four, the elevator suddenly shook and suddenly stopped moving. The lights were off, and the narrow space was pitch black.

The elevator malfunctioned.

Xia Dong quickly took out her phone and used a weak light to light up the elevator. Baili Han also took out his phone and called for help. At the same time, he pressed the alarm in the elevator.

"Don't be afraid. The maintenance staff will be here soon. " After Baili Han ended the call, he comforted her.

Xia Dong smiled bitterly. "We are really unlucky. We have never encountered an elevator malfunction in our life. It is such a coincidence that we met together. "

Baili Han suddenly hugged her and said in a low voice, "Do you know? I am very glad that I just walked into the elevator with you. "

Her heart skipped a beat. "Why?"

He stroked her long hair and his movements were unbelievably gentle. "How could I not worry about leaving you here alone?"

It was a lie to say that he wasn't touched. Her heart felt like it had been stuffed with a lump of cotton, and she felt stifled and uncomfortable. She even forgot to push him away and muttered, "You shouldn't be so good to me. "

He smiled bitterly. "I don't want to either. I know you're someone else's woman, but I just can't control myself. "

Because he couldn't control his longing for her, he drove his car to her neighborhood and wandered around. He happened to see a scene that he shouldn't have seen. . .

Xia Dong was very powerless. She realized that she had incurred a lot of emotional debts.

"Yun, did you confess to you?" There were so many lotus flowers and lanterns. He only needed to look at them from afar to understand Baili Yun's intentions.

She said in a low voice, "Oh. "

"Then how did you reply to him?" His hand involuntarily grabbed her shoulder.

She smiled. "Didn't you say that I'm already someone else's woman? Of course I can only reject him. "

"Looks like you really love Beitang Shen!" Baili Han's anger immediately soared. The narrow space was filled with a cold aura.

She gently pushed him away, pursed her lips, and did not speak anymore.

The atmosphere suddenly became very stiff.

At this moment, someone knocked on the elevator door. "Don't worry about the people inside. We will save you as soon as possible. "

There was a series of tinkling sounds outside the door. It was the maintenance staff using tools to pry open the elevator door.

Very soon, a very small gap opened in the elevator. The gap became bigger and bigger. A head peeked in from the elevator and the door. It was a man in his 40s. "Give me your hands. I will pull you up. "

Only then did Xia Dong know that the elevator stopped between the fourth and fifth floor. It was about 1. 5 meters below the corridor. If it were any other time, Xia Dong could easily climb up. But now, she was still pregnant. . .

"Come up. " Baili Han knew her predicament. He crouched on the ground with his back facing her and pointed at his shoulder.

She could not help but think about how they were on the deserted island. After she was bitten by a snake, he carried her on his back.

He was already impatient. "What are you still standing there for? It's not the first time!"

Xia Dong's face instantly darkened. What did he mean by not the first time!? It sounded like something strange was going on. . .

She carefully climbed onto his shoulder and he steadily stood up. The maintenance staff outside the elevator reached out and grabbed her, pulling her out.

The maintenance staff reached out again and pulled Baili Han out.

"Thank you!" Xia Dong thanked the two maintenance staff gratefully.

The maintenance staff exchanged a few pleasantries and continued to deal with the malfunction. Xia Dong and the rest climbed up the stairs.

Just as the door opened, Xiaobao, who was playing computer games on the sofa, did not even lift his head. He said lazily, "Mom, why did you go for so long?"

"I'm back. Xiaobao, stop playing. Uncle Baili is here. Hurry up and greet him. " Xia Dong took out a pair of clean slippers and placed them by Baili Han's feet.

Xiaobao quickly looked up. His dark eyes stared at Baili Han. His tone was a little fierce. "Baili Han, what are you doing here?"

"Xiaobao, don't be so rude!" Xia Dong scolded him sternly.

Xiaobao rarely got yelled at so harshly by her. He felt extremely wronged in his heart. He glared fiercely at Baili Han, who had walked into the room, and said, "I hate you. " He quickly jumped down from the sofa, hugged the small notebook, and ran towards his own room.

Baili Han's expression was somewhat unpleasant.

Xia Dong was full of guilt, "Sorry, Xiaobao is too willful. It was I who did not discipline him well. "

His thin lips moved, "It's fine. "

She hurriedly invited him to sit down, "What do you like to drink?"0

"Tea. "

He looked around the living room. Although he had been here a few times, he had never looked at it seriously. It was a very warm arrangement that made people feel relaxed and comfortable.

He leaned against the soft sofa and watched her take the tea set. She elegantly scalded the cup and poured the tea. The tea leaves slowly sank, and the water vapor mixed with the fragrance of the tea rose up like the clouds and the sun.

With a tranquil expression, she poured the tea, poured the tea, and ordered the tea unhurriedly. The tea slowly flowed into the transparent glass tea bowl.

"You know the art of tea. " Every time he approached her, she would bring him a new surprise.

"I have a lot of time now. I'm interested, so I learned a little bit and made you laugh. "

He picked up the teacup and smelled the fragrance of the tea leaves. "No, it's very good. " He did not lie. She was in a well-practiced position. She was even more graceful and elegant than those young ladies who came from wealthy families and specialized in the art of tea.

She smiled lightly.

He put down the tea bowl and looked at her. "Now that the drug addiction is acting up every day, is it still uncomfortable?"

"It's already much better. The antidote you brought is very effective. I haven't properly thanked you yet. "

The corner of his lips curled up. "You already owe me a lot of thanks. It doesn't matter if it's one less time. "

She raised her eyebrows. "Are you blaming me for not repaying you?"

He crossed his arms around his shoulders and said provocatively, "You said it. I never said it. "

The corner of Xia Dong's mouth twitched. Indeed, he had never said it. He only asked her directly how to repay him.

"Mom, Mom. . . " Xiaobao suddenly ran into the living room in panic. "Be good and have a fever!"

Xia Dong stood up from the sofa with her hand rubbing against the sofa. The back of her hand accidentally hit the tea bowl. The hot tea spilled on the table and burned the back of her hand. She did not take it to heart at all. She said, "Excuse me," and rushed to her daughter's room.

Baili Han frowned. With worry in his eyes, he followed her.

Xiaoguai lay on the bed with her eyes tightly closed. Her delicate eyebrows were knitted together, and her small face was full of pain. Xia Dong hurriedly checked the temperature of her forehead. It was so hot that it was scary. She quickly took the coat and put it on Xiaoguai and then carried her up. She said to Xiaobao, "Baby, Mommy will take her to the hospital obediently. After I leave. . . He locked the door and went to bed early. Don't let me worry. "

"I got it, Mom. Hurry up and go. "

Xia Dong turned her gaze to Baili Han, who was standing at the side, and said," I'm sorry. My daughter is sick. I want to take her to the hospital. "

"I will go with you. " Baili Han stretched out his arm without hesitation. "It's not convenient for you. I will carry the child. "

Xia Dong did not delay and sent the child into his arms. She took the bag and umbrella and hurried out the door.

The elevator was already running normally. Xia Dong was still worried in her heart. Baili Han had already carried her daughter into the elevator. She could only follow him in. Fortunately, there were no more problems with the elevator.

Give me back the rain.

Baili Han took off his coat and wrapped it around Xiaoguai's body. Xia Dong placed all the umbrellas on top of their heads. Baili Han found his own car and put Xiaoguai in the backseat. "Take the back seat with the child. It is convenient to take care of her. "

Xia Dong was worried that the rain on her body would touch Xiaoguai's body and took off her small coat outside her skirt.

Baili Han adjusted the temperature.
