Chapter 585 I Want to Become Family with Him
He Fen sat in the living room sulking for a long time, then felt it was pointless to sit alone, so she stood up and went back to her room.
After dropping Bai Yi off at home, Wang Ye prepared to leave.
Wang Ye and Bai Yi took Linlin home. Although the house belonged to Bai Yi, they had been living there since they got married. During the time Bai Yi was away, Wang Ye and Linlin also lived there.
Perhaps because he was used to him and Linlin being alone, Wang Ye felt inexplicably uncomfortable with Bai Yi's sudden return.
He walked into the living room without changing his shoes and said to Bai Yi, "You and the child go to sleep first. I... I'm going back to the shop. I have a lot of work to keep an eye on tomorrow morning."
Bai Yi glanced at the time. "But it's already very late."
"It's not late. I've been staying up late every day lately, I'm used to it. Don't worry about me, go to sleep."
Bai Yi looked at Wang Ye thoughtfully, feeling that he seemed to be deliberately avoiding her.
It's like they're running away, or maybe they're worried.
But she didn't force him, saying, "Then don't eat out for breakfast tomorrow morning, I'll make it for you."
Wang Ye was about to say no, but Bai Yi sighed and said, "If you don't want to stay here, I won't stop you, but I'm your wife, so it's only right that I cook you a meal. If you insist on being so polite with me, then there's no point in us getting married."
Wang Ye opened his mouth, he really wanted to say that it wasn't that he didn't want to live here, and that they had lived together before, but now, for some reason, he was just afraid of being under the same roof as Bai Yi.
He would feel nervous, and sometimes even feel like he didn't know what to do with his hands and feet.
This feeling is so strange; it wasn't like this when the two of them first got married.
Wang Ye didn't say these words to Bai Yi, but he didn't refuse her either. "Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Bai Yi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard him agree.
Throughout the marriage, she always felt that Wang Ye was the unfair party. Although she had the ability to repay the money she owed Wang Ye, she could never repay the help he had given her.
So in this process, she did whatever she could to help Wang Ye, however little she could.
This can be considered a form of repayment.
Wang Ye was about to leave after he finished speaking, but as soon as he turned around, Bai Yi called him back, "Wait a minute."
She went back to the bedroom, took out two or three bags, and said to Wang Ye, "I didn't know what to buy for your parents this time, so I just bought some clothes that would suit them. I don't know if they'll fit. Take them back tomorrow and let them try them on. If they don't fit, I'll exchange them."
Wang Ye was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected He Fen to treat him that way, yet she still thought of bringing them things.
Wang Ye couldn't quite describe the feeling in his heart. He was glad that Bai Yi would do this, but he also felt a little sorry for her.
"You've already bought them, why don't you take them over yourself?"
Bai Yi gave a wry smile. "You know your mother's personality better than I do. She doesn't like me to begin with. If she doesn't like the things I buy, she might use that to criticize me and say I'm wasting money."
Wang Ye smiled helplessly; these were indeed words that He Fen would say.
His original intention was to make He Fen understand Bai Yi's feelings and then gradually accept her, but with her temper, once she got angry, she could come up with all sorts of twisted logic.
Wang Ye thought about it and decided against it. He took the bag from Bai Yi and said, "Okay, I'll send it back to them tomorrow."
"Okay." Bai Yi nodded. "Be careful on your way back."
After Wang Ye left, Linlin looked up and asked Bai Yi in confusion, "Mom, why doesn't Uncle live with us?"
Bai Yi squatted down, smiled, and pinched his cheek. "Because Uncle has something to do tomorrow, he'll be leaving now."
Although Linlin is still young, he can understand some things about adults.
"Mom, does Uncle not like you and me? That's why he doesn't want to live with us."
Bai Yi chuckled, "You child, do you even know what it means to like and dislike? Don't talk nonsense."
"I'm not making this up." Linlin pouted. "Grandma said she thinks you're not suitable to be with Uncle, that's why she doesn't like me. Mom, does Uncle think so too?"
Linlin's words seemed to strike a chord with Bai Yi, leaving her slightly stunned.
She wasn't stupid; she could sense that Wang Ye was very uncomfortable around her, which was why she didn't ask him why when he suggested staying at the shop.
Wang Ye felt uncomfortable, and so did she, so she respected Wang Ye's opinion.
The two had no emotional foundation whatsoever; they were essentially two strangers living under the same roof, and they needed to work things out in many ways.
For the two of them, sharing a bed is a bit difficult.
Of course, Bai Yi also knew that these things needed to be gotten used to gradually, and things couldn't continue like this forever.
But what happens after you get used to it?
Wang Ye is still young. He can't just make do with her forever. Just like Linlin said, what if he also thinks they're not a good match, but can't say it for some reason? Shouldn't she stop dragging him along like this?
Linlin grabbed Baiyi's arm and shook it, asking innocently, "Mommy, can you not separate from Uncle? I like him very much, and I want to become his family."
Bai Yi couldn't help but laugh when she saw his serious expression.
The child is so young, yet speaks like a little adult.
She patiently explained to Linlin, "Linlin, your uncle has helped your mother a lot. Your mother is with him now because of some things, but whether or not we can become a family is not up to your mother. We should respect your uncle's wishes."
Linlin said, "But I think your uncle is very good to you! He definitely wants to be with your mom."
Bai Yi pinched his nose and laughed, "Don't talk nonsense. Come on, Mom will take you to bed."
Linlin touched her nose and thought to herself.
He wasn't lying. During the time his mother was away, although his uncle was always busy, several times on the way to pick him up from school, many pretty girls asked for his phone number, but his uncle never gave it to them.
Moreover, my uncle said that he was already married and even introduced him to those people as having a son.
Sometimes, he would see his uncle take out his phone, wanting to call his mother, but afraid of disturbing her, so he would keep pacing back and forth, muttering something unintelligible. He couldn't hear his uncle's words.
All these signs indicate that the mother is very important to the uncle.
