Ximei crawled out from under the bed sheet and hugged Tao Bao's legs, "Jixiao, I caught Jixiao!"
Tao Bao laughed, "Look carefully, who did you catch?"
Ximei raised her head, her beautiful eyes shining, "It's Mommy!"
"Well, let's play!"
After lunch, Tao Bao played with the little ones and then took them to take a nap.
Then I received a call from Liao Xihe.
Tao Bao didn't know what the matter was, so he answered, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"Come out this afternoon and have tea with Mom!"
"I want to be with the kids."
"No one to take care of you? Where's Aunt Qiu?"
"I rarely get a day off."
"It's okay, it won't take long. Wait until the kids are taking a nap and then you can go back home early."
Tao Bao might have understood Liao Xihe's desire to have tea with her, so she agreed.
But she didn't expect that when she arrived at the place, there was not only Liao Xihe drinking tea, but also another young man.
"Let me introduce him. This is the son of your uncle Si, who works in a cooperative company. We just happened to meet, so I asked him to sit down and have a chat," said Liao Xihe.
"My name is Xu Kai, hello." Xu Kai's eyes lit up when he saw Tao Bao, "We've met before."
Tao Bao couldn't remember when he had seen such a person before.
"At your uncle Si's birthday party, don't you remember?" Liao Xihe asked.
Tao Bao certainly didn't remember it, but Ni Riyan knew about it.
Don't hit someone who smiles at you. Tao Bao forced a smile and said, "Hello."
"Come sit down, don't stand." Liao Xihe pulled Tao Bao to sit next to him. "What would you like to drink?"
"Boiled water," Tao Bao said. "I can't stay too long. I have something else to do later."
"I know, let me order you a milkshake!" So Liao Xihe took the initiative to order her a milkshake, which was strawberry flavored. Then Liao Xihe smiled and said, "Girls should drink strawberry milkshake, right, Akai?"
Xu Kai smiled and nodded, "Yes, that's right. I was deeply impressed by Miss Tao the first time at the banquet. It was the first time I saw a natural girl without makeup."
"Yes, my little girl never wears makeup. She has been a beauty since she was little." Liao Xihe also praised his daughter.
Tao Bao was very embarrassed sitting next to him.
After sitting for more than half an hour, she had reached her limit of endurance.
The topic all revolves around her. Are you sure you just met her by chance and sat down to chat?
It feels like a blind date.
Just when Tao Bao couldn't help but ask to leave, his cell phone rang.
After seeing the caller ID, she was so scared that her hands shook and she almost knocked over the milkshake on the table.
"What's wrong?" Liao Xihe asked.
"Nothing, I'll just take a call." Tao Bao stood up and walked out of the cafe. Outside, he calmed himself down. Why did Si Minghan call at this time? The phone was still ringing. He didn't dare to neglect it. He immediately answered it with trembling hands, "Mr. Si..."
"Where?"
Tao Bao's gaze fell on his empty wrist. He took off the bracelet because he was afraid that Si Minghan would know his whereabouts. He tried to speak as normally as possible, "I'm at home." He could only say that because the bracelet was at home.
"Are you ready to be caught lying?"
Tao Bao had been able to suppress his inner panic, but when he heard Si Minghan's low and intimidating voice coming from the phone, his mind buzzed and he was so scared that his mind went blank.
What did Si Minghan mean? Why did he say she lied?
Is he here?
Tao Bao turned around and looked inside the coffee shop. Through the wall and glass door, he could see figures swaying inside, but he couldn't tell which one was Si Minghan.
Even in broad daylight, Tao Baoqi was still terrified.
Tao Bao hung up the phone directly.
Come back immediately.
I don’t have time to say hello to Liao Xihe. I’ll talk to him when I get back.
Don’t let Si Minghan catch you red-handed, that would be bad!
Turning around, she almost bumped into a dark shadow, which scared her so much that she slammed on the brakes.
The tall figure standing in front of her had a very strong aura, which was so oppressive that she couldn't breathe.
Even if she didn't look up, the black shirt in front of her blocked her vision. This dangerous atmosphere was too familiar!
"At home? Huh?"
A low, cold and fierce voice came down, frightening Tao Bao so much that he shuddered all over and turned around and ran away.
"Ah!" Just as he was about to run out of the room, his wrist was tightened and he was pulled over. He was dragged in front of Si Minghan and bumped directly into his strong chest.
Tao Bao's body was stiff. Her face was pressed against Si Minghan's neck, and her sexy Adam's apple was so close that she almost felt suffocated.
"Are you looking for death?"
"I... I said I passed by here, do you believe it?" Tao Bao felt that he was so unlucky that he was touched by Si Minghan even after taking off the bracelet.
"What do you think?"
Tao Bao bit his lip, calmed his fear, and said, "Just... drink coffee..."
"Your memory doesn't seem to be very good." Si Minghan said grimly.
"Anyway...anyway, you saw it, I have nothing to say!" Tao Bao gritted his teeth, closed his eyes and prepared to wait for death.
Si Minghan looked at her frightened expression, his dark eyes sharp and deep. After a moment, he said, "This won't happen again."
Tao Bao raised her head in disbelief, and instantly met Si Minghan's sharp black eyes. The deep and sinister look made her scalp tense, and her pupils shrank slightly and dodged, "What you said... is it true?"
"Get in the car." There was no warmth in Si Minghan's low voice, and his expression was even uglier.
"Oh." Tao Bao looked up and saw a car parked on the side of the road not far away, so he immediately turned around.
Si Minghan glanced towards the coffee shop with a sinister and terrifying look, then turned around, took out his phone and made a call. "You've been a bit busy lately, I want to complete the acquisition of the Xu family's company within three days!"
"...Yes, I understand." Zhang Ze thought to himself, am I free? Are the two related? Based on his understanding of Si Xian'er, he was afraid that the Xu family had offended Si Xian'er.
Tao Bao got into the car without closing the door. He turned around and saw Si Minghan walking towards him after he had just finished a phone call.
Suddenly she sat up straight.
As soon as Si Minghan got into the car, the atmosphere inside became oppressive, permeating every corner.
The door closed and the car drove away.
Even if Tao Bao didn't look at Si Minghan, he could still feel the sharp gaze like needles falling on him.
She wondered why Si Minghan said it wouldn't happen again. Wouldn't meeting Liao Xihe privately offend him?
This person is so unpredictable that it's hard to guess...
"Where's the bracelet?" Si Ming asked coldly.
Tao Bao came back to his senses and said, "I... I took off the bracelet when I was taking a shower before going out and forgot to put it on."
"You took a shower just to see another man?"
"Of course not! I don't know him..."
Si Minghan looked at her with cold eyes, "Since it wasn't your intention, someone will naturally be unlucky."
Tao Bao's heart skipped a beat. Who was unlucky? Liao Xihe? Could it be Xu Kai? He'd already said he didn't know him. Shouldn't Si Minghan be so ruthless?
