Chapter 64 Touching
The walkways of the star-rated hotel are designed like Chinese gardens.
The place is mostly used by film crews, and people occasionally run here. Recently, it's been mostly actors living here, so there are even more people running here.
I could see Cheng Xiao and her manager running from afar.
She looks like she's completely without makeup. Even without makeup, female celebrities look much better than ordinary people.
Cheng Xiao stopped when she reached them.
"Mr. Xu, are you here to visit your daughter on set?"
Xu Qingmin didn't know how Cheng Xiao knew Bai Guanqun was his girlfriend's child, but he still nodded politely.
"Your daughter looks just like her mother, she has a great temperament, a pretty face, and is a little beauty in the making, but she walks just like you. You two are truly father and daughter."
Song Yilin knew these were just polite words from people in public, but she subconsciously compared them to what she was saying.
They do look somewhat alike.
Especially the way you walk.
What a coincidence!
Song Yilin sensed that Xu Qingmin didn't really want to talk to Cheng Xiao, so she quickly said politely, "Teacher Cheng said today that my daughter looks like you, so Teacher Cheng, please praise you too."
Cheng Xiao didn't mince words and said frankly, "Yes, I am a beauty."
After Cheng Xiao left, Song Yilin deliberately asked Xu Qingmin, "Did she ever pursue you?"
Xu Qingmin patted Song Yilin's head: "Are you jealous?"
"A woman that beautiful, any man would be attracted to her."
"But who can compare to your looks? With your appearance, if you had entered the entertainment industry back then, you might not have fared any worse than Cheng Xiao."
"But I'm in the entertainment industry now, so I probably won't have a chance to be with you anymore. I remember your mother doesn't like female celebrities in the entertainment industry either."
"With my current status, my mother has no authority over me."
She can't control her, but she can still be disgusting. Like now, Xu Qingmin is with her. His mother doesn't dare to say anything, but that doesn't stop her from playing some tricks. Xu Ming used to come from a prestigious family and looked down on everyone. Xu Qingmin's personality of looking down on everyone during his school days is probably inherited from his mother, which is what she dislikes the most.
Xu Qingmin stared blankly at Bai Guanqun's hopping figure, thinking about what Cheng Xiao had just said.
Bai Guanqun does look a bit like him when he was a child, but it's just a coincidence. It's impossible that Bai Ye wouldn't know if the child is his when Bai Guanqun is that old.
Perhaps he was hallucinating because he wanted to have a child with Song Yilin.
Her room and Bai Guanqun's room were at opposite ends of the hotel. She had clearly asked the hotel to arrange their rooms to be the closest, so why was Bai Guanqun staying so far away?
"Qunqun, you went to change rooms by yourself?"
"Yes, I want to live close to Teacher Cheng so that I can observe her more easily, and our performances will feel more like one person."
Since her daughter had her own ideas, Song Yilin didn't know what to say.
"Then remember to tell your mother if anything happens. Your mother stays here except when she is at work."
She's been spending time with her children on set lately. Luckily, Director Gu is filming a science fiction movie, which is all shot in a studio. Her commute to work is only an hour from the hotel to the Xu Group.
When they arrived at the room, they saw Xu Qingmin pulling out a large suitcase.
Are you planning to live here with me permanently?
"Although Bai Guanqun is my stepdaughter, she is legally my daughter after I married you, and she can inherit my property in the future. So isn't it normal for me to be worried about my daughter being here on set?"
That makes sense; stepdaughters and biological children have the same rights and obligations.
However, if Xu Qingmin's mother heard this, she would probably be jealous.
When Song Yilin saw Xu Qingmin open his suitcase, she offered to help him pack his clothes.
When Xu Qingmin saw Song Yilin make a move, he stopped moving and quietly watched her.
Why are you looking at me like that?
"It was the first time my wife packed my clothes, and I suddenly felt like I was at home."
Actually, when Song Yilin booked the room, she knew that Xu Qingmin would come, so she booked the best and largest room in the hotel. Although it was a suite with a walk-in closet, it was still far inferior to Gu Sinan's villa. She thought that Xu Qingmin would only come occasionally, and she felt that it would be a bit unfair to him if he stayed here for a long time.
After Song Yilin finished tidying up, she poured Xu Qingmin a glass of wine.
"After finishing my work at the company today, I chatted with Wang Qianqian. She said that you must feel regretful for not having children. Do you feel regretful?"
“Don’t we already have a child? After we got married, Guan Qun became my legal daughter. We already have her, so I have no regrets. I don’t like spending time with children.”
Song Yilin understood Xu Qingmin's true feelings. It wasn't that he didn't want children, but that he thought she couldn't have them, which was why he said he didn't want them.
Song Yilin quietly hugged Xu Qingmin.
She didn't want children, but she didn't want Xu Qingmin to have any regrets: "Qingmin, I'm just asking you, do you want children?"
"I don't want anything, all I want is you."
How far can a man's love go? He can love a woman so much that he loves everything about her, including her children and her family, and he can even accept not having his own children for the rest of his life.
Xu Qingmin can do so much for her, why can't she try to accept his complicated family?
She has been too selfish for the past thirteen years; perhaps she shouldn't have treated Xu Qingmin that way.
This is unfair to him.
Song Yilin pondered for a moment.
"Qingmin, if I wanted to have a child for you, would you want it?"
"Don't push yourself. Recanalization surgery isn't that simple, and it won't be effective even if you do it. I don't want you to do IVF; it's too harmful to your body. We have Coronavirus, which is sufficient."
Song Yilin didn't mention that she only had an IUD inserted because she's almost 34 years old, and some women of that age don't get pregnant easily.
So let's not talk about it for now. We'll talk about it after she gets pregnant. She doesn't want to give Xu Qingmin any hope. What if she has some health problems after all these years and can't get pregnant, which would disappoint Xu Qingmin again?
Besides, she said she doesn't have to have the baby right away; she'll at least wait until Bai Guanqun is less averse to Xu Qingmin before giving birth.
The next day, Xu Qingmin's driver came to pick them up for work.
"Qingmin, why didn't you drive it yourself?"
He didn't like the driver to be present when he and she went on dates.
"We're going to work now, not on a date. I'll drive when I'm on a date."
Song Yilin no longer works at the 4S store and can no longer drive the company's test drive car. It seems she will have to find time to buy a car from the company for transportation.
Xu Qingmin suddenly handed Song Yilin a key: "Since you won't be working at the 4S store anymore and won't have a car to get to work, you can take this car for transportation."
Song Yilin accepted it without hesitation. If she hadn't, Xu Qingmin would have felt insecure, as he would have thought she was cutting ties with him.
She had just asked for a car when Xu Qingmin thought of one.
It would be a lie to say I wasn't moved.
