Chapter 762: Chapter 770
In fact, Bai Ye also felt there was nothing that needed to be said, for if Bai Zhi could grow up overnight, so could he.
It was only when he seriously looked around that he realized just how naive he used to be.
“I…”
Ye Xiu suddenly didn’t know what to do, because she really hadn’t thought about this issue.
It was just because of one thing, that she had always thought she had taken care of it already for the school.
In her life, if there was anything she felt absolutely no regret or apology about, that would be… the school.
For she had already given her all for the school and could do anything for those students as well.
Thus, she felt she had no guilt in her heart.
“Let’s go, Mom, it’s getting late.”
Bai Ye said nothing more, simply took Ye Xiu’s bag, and walked ahead.
The flashlight in his hand wasn’t very bright anymore.
Noticing the dimming light, Ye Xiu followed behind Bai Ye, not knowing what to say all at once.
She had actually been quite hands-off with Bai Ye, whether during his childhood or later on, giving him the least amount of her attention.
Because Bai Ye was too noisy, troublesome, and caused mischief.
Later on, when he suddenly became quiet and a good student, she naturally stopped paying special attention to him.
But now, it was he who was taking her home.
The one she thought would never abandon her, Bai Da, didn’t even want to now.
Yet unexpectedly, Bai Ye was the one bringing her home.
When they arrived in town it was already midnight, and Bai Ye opened the gate to the yard. It was the same as before, with no changes at all, even the ground was clean.
Had someone from the school come to clean? Ye Xiu didn’t know what was going on for a moment.
Entering the living room, Bai Ye set down the things. He went to the kitchen, took out some ingredients, and made her a simple bowl of egg noodles.
Ye Xiu smelled it, and it was really fragrant.
The chopped green onions on top were the perfect touch.
“When did you learn how to cook?”
Ye Xiu was somewhat choked up, as she had done everything before, but then Bai Ye came along, and she could relax a little. And now…
Bai Ye could cook, which she found a little unbelievable.
“A long time ago, I just started learning when I got too hungry,”
Bai Ye didn’t hide anything and honestly spoke up.
Back then, being very hungry naturally led him to learn how to cook, clean, and do many other things.
“Bai Ye, do you blame me?”
Ye Xiu’s eyes were particularly sore as she looked at the young man sitting opposite her, not knowing how much taller than her.
Bai Ye put down his chopsticks and shook his head. Actually, whether he blamed her or not didn’t make much of a difference.
“You think I’m wrong too?”
Ye Xiu was somewhat angry, perceiving from Bai Ye’s demeanor that he thought she was a bit crazy.
“Mom, I don’t think you’re wrong. But I still want to ask and understand clearly. What exactly happened?”
Bai Ye wasn’t actually very curious, but if she was going to shame Grandpa, and something could have been stopped,
Bai Ye just didn’t understand what his mother was thinking,
Changing her mind this way and that.
“Mom, I don’t think you’re bad, I just feel that maybe you should think about the future, what you want to do next, or just rest at home for a while.”
Bai Ye tried to change the subject, but Ye Xiu was not receptive at all.
“Don’t ever bring up your dad again; he’s just a piece of trash.”
Ye Xiu truly hated Bai Da now, for actually kicking her out. Wasn’t it better to tidy things up? Instead, he outright pushed those so-called friends aside.
It was a pity.
“Okay. I know,”
Bai Ye nodded. He knew that he was not the smartest. But he was trying very hard…
Bai Ye fell silent too, not sure how he could make Ye Xiu happy, but he could silently do everything without causing a disturbance.
“Aren’t you going to ask anymore?”
Now it was Ye Xiu’s turn to be stunned, “You going to keep asking?”
Ye Xiu fell silent too. She hadn’t expected that when Bai Ye said he wouldn’t ask, he really meant it. What a blockhead.
“I don’t even know where to start…”
Ye Xiu truly didn’t know what to say.
But she bought various kinds of medicine.
“Mom, should I say goodnight then?”
Bai Ye got up immediately, then hurried upstairs to do homework and go to bed.
Ye Xiu: “…”
Ye Xiu didn’t know what her life amounted to, whether she was a success or a failure.
Although Bai Ye brought her back and cooked for her, he was unwilling to speak to her, let alone comfort her. This made her feel very upset.
Not to mention that Bai Da, he almost drove her to her wits’ end.
She really wanted to vent, but Bai Ye had left.
Ye Xiu found herself alone, walking out into the yard, looking up at the sky.
It was supposed to be her home, yet why couldn’t she feel the warmth anymore?
Bai Ye wasn’t bad, just reticent, and didn’t seem to care about her…
Ye Xiu didn’t know when she had returned to her room.
She should have been happy, yet she couldn’t shake the gloom in her heart.
…
In the morning, Bai Ye brought back breakfast, and though it was holiday, they needed to attend supplementary classes.
So they would only come back on the twenty-eighth of the twelfth lunar month.
“Mom, I’m off to school.”
Ye Xiu ate a little and then thought about whether to go out for a walk.
Once outside, she discovered many things had changed, but she still made her way to the school.
Looking at it, a smile finally crept onto her lips.
Bai Ye returned in the evening to find Ye Xiu cooking, something that puzzled him.
He had always commuted to school because there weren’t enough beds.
He hadn’t expected to come back to see Ye Xiu cooking.
“Mom, I’m back.”
Bai Ye set his things down and started eating.
“Bai Ye, are we staying here for the New Year?”
Ye Xiu still wanted to go back and tidy up her maternal home.
“Yeah, we might have to take extra classes.”
Bai Ye nodded, finished speaking, and fell silent again,
Ye Xiu was somewhat exasperated; this child really was a quiet one.
“Let’s go see Bai Yu.”
Ye Xiu suddenly spoke up; she had found out only after leaving that Bai Yu had also had an incident, and that Nan Xi had been taken away by someone.
“I’m… quite busy these days.”
Bai Ye thought for a bit but ultimately said nothing.
He didn’t want to see Bai Yu; people with differing principles hardly get along.
“Should I go by myself?”
Ye Xiu, in a fit of pique, went over in the afternoon.
When she arrived, it wasn’t long before Bai Yu showed up.
At that moment, he seemed like a completely different person.
No longer wearing glasses, he looked particularly haggard, as though he hadn’t been resting well.
Yet this place remained the same.
“Bai Yu…” Ye Xiu’s tears suddenly began to flow.
“Is there something you need?” Bai Yu was equally cold. After all this time, now she comes. What’s the point?
“Bai Yu, I…”
Ye Xiu didn’t know how to begin.
“Just go back. I have nothing to do with you anymore. Because of you, all those things happened at the end.”
Ye Xiu trembled all over, “What do you mean? Are you blaming me?”
