He wandered around the supermarket for a long time, occasionally taking out his phone to check, clinging to a sliver of hope that Yan Bai would call and ask where he was. But even after he left the supermarket and returned home, Yan Bai didn't look for him, nor did he go home.
Actually, Shen Ye felt quite uneasy and always wanted to rush to crowded places, as it would feel more lively and temporarily push away her loneliness and unease.
Yan Bai didn't go home, and Shen Ye didn't feel the need to cook, so he put down his things and turned to leave.
He drove to find Zheng Bin, and when he was almost at the residential area where Zheng Bin lived, Shen Ye saw him walking into a maternity and baby store with his arm around a woman.
At this moment, Shen Ye just wanted someone to be with him, even if they didn't say a word, just sitting quietly by his side would be enough.
So he immediately stopped the car and followed. Entering the maternity and baby store, Zheng Bin saw Shen Ye and asked in confusion, "Isn't your home quite far from here? Why are you here? What? Is your girlfriend pregnant?"
Shen Ye shook his head. "No, I just happened to be passing by and saw you, so I came to say hello. What brings you here...?"
"I forgot to tell you, Linlin and I have made up, and I'm a father now." It was easy to hear the joy in Zheng Bin's tone.
Perhaps it was because he had won the heart of the beauty that Zheng Bin couldn't stop smiling.
Shen Ye suddenly had the illusion that he didn't belong to this world.
While looking at baby supplies, Zheng Bin said to Shen Ye, "Our two families must become in-laws in the future. If it's two boys or two girls, then forget it. Oh, by the way, when are you and your girlfriend getting married? Tell me when the baby is born, and I want to be the godfather. Of course, you can be the godfather of my son too."
Zheng Bin's words were just casual conversation, but Shen Ye knew that, not to mention that he couldn't get pregnant as a man, even if he could, he probably wouldn't have the chance, because Yan Bai might give up on him and choose Li Xintong.
Li Xintong has lived a truly miserable life away from home for so many years, according to her own account. Furthermore, given that they were a couple forced to break up, Yan Bai certainly wouldn't stand idly by. He definitely wouldn't accept money; what Li Xintong wants is a home. Therefore, Yan Bai is very likely to give her one...
Thinking of this, she fled the baby store in a disheveled state without even saying goodbye.
When Shen Ye returned home, Yan Bai still hadn't come back. He sat on the bed, the large room so quiet that he could hear his own heartbeat.
Shen Ye closed his eyes, forcing himself to sleep, but his eyelids seemed to be working against him, wanting to stay open.
I don't know how long I struggled with my eyelids, but around 5 a.m., Yan Bai returned.
He didn't smell of alcohol; instead, he smelled of cigarettes and perfume mixed together, which Shen Ye didn't like.
Yan Bai turned on the light and went to the wardrobe to find clothes. Shen Ye could no longer pretend to be asleep, so he sat up and stared at him.
"What's wrong? Did I wake you up?"
"I haven't slept, I've been waiting for you," Shen Ye said truthfully.
"Go to sleep. Li Xintong was in a bad mood today and kept crying. I finally managed to comfort her and leave after seeing her asleep. I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting until now," Yan Bai said apologetically, while continuing to look for clothes.
"Are you going to be with her?" Shen Ye asked bluntly.
"What?" Yan Bai was a little confused and turned slightly to look at Shen Ye.
"Would you break up with me and be with her?"
