Chapter 35.
As the sun sets, the sunlight turns into a soft orange and pours into the room through the floor-to-ceiling windows, giving the two people hugging in the room a soft golden edge. Although Xu Baiqing's mood is still a little low, he has calmed down.
However, she has made up her mind. She may still be very weak now, so she has to experience this reluctant feeling, but she will not always be weak. One day she will be able to protect the people she wants to protect, and not be as powerless as she is today.
"Okay, are you calm now?" Qian Yirong noticed that Xu Baiqing's body was no longer trembling from crying, and asked gently.
"Yeah." Xu Baiqing responded a little embarrassedly. Unlike before when she pretended to achieve some purpose, this time she was really emotionally broken. But receiving Qian Yirong's tenderness was also an unexpected surprise for Xu Baiqing.
"It's getting late. I should leave." Qian Yirong said, gently pushing away Xu Baiqing who was lying in her arms. This was just right. Although she planned to spend the rest of the time freely, she still had to keep some distance from Xu Baiqing to prevent herself from getting deeper and deeper into trouble.
"I want to too..." Xu Baiqing almost immediately responded by expressing that he also wanted to move out and live with Qian Yirong.
"No," Qian Yirong interrupted Xu Baiqing. "I've just analyzed the situation. You should know that the others won't let you move out with me."
Xu Baiqing fell silent after hearing this. Indeed, she was now of great use in the eyes of other people downstairs, and it was absolutely impossible to let her move out with Qian Yirong.
"...Forget it, it should be okay if it's just today." Qian Yirong looked at Xu Baiqing's pitiful expression and couldn't help but speak.
It is impossible to move out with her, but there is no problem staying at her place for one night today. After all, it will not affect anything. When Xu Baiqing heard this, his eyes lit up and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a smile.
So the three people from the Qian family who were waiting in the living room for Qian Yirong to leave saw Qian Yirong dragging a suitcase and Xu Baiqing following her closely, and Xu Baiqing looked like he was going to leave with Qian Yirong.
"Mom, I want to send my sister off. Can I stay with her today?" Xu Baiqing's eyes were still a little red because he had just cried. Now he looked at Qian's mother with a pleading expression.
"Okay, we don't want to leave Rongrong either, but you can't stay at Rongrong's place for too long. Don't bother her." Qian's mother thought about it, exchanged glances with her husband and son, and agreed. But in order to prevent Xu Baiqing from staying at Qian Yirong's place, she emphasized that she should go home as soon as possible.
"I will, thank you, Mom." Xu Baiqing said with a smile.
"Can I drive away the car that Mu Zexuan gave me?" Qian Yirong had already anticipated that Qian's mother would agree to Xu Baiqing's request, so she spoke after their conversation ended.
"It's just a car. Can we confiscate it from you?" Qian's father said dissatisfiedly.
"That's good. I'm leaving." Qian Yirong said impatiently, pulling her suitcase and leaving. Xu Baiqing smiled apologetically at the other three people in the living room and caught up with Qian Yirong's leaving steps.
"Qingqing seems to like Rongrong a little too much." Qian Chengshu said with some worry as he watched Xu Baiqing chasing Qian Yirong away.
"That's because she didn't see Rongrong's true face." Qian's father scoffed at his son's worries. He said, "Bai Qing will know who her family is later."
Qian Yirong dragged her suitcase to the garage, opened the trunk of the car, put her suitcase in, and then returned to the driver's seat. Xu Baiqing had already obediently opened the passenger door.
Qian Yirong got in the car and saw Xu Baiqing fastening his seat belt. She couldn't help but recall the time when she fastened Xu Baiqing's seat belt. At that time, she had no other thoughts in her mind, but now when she thought about it, because she was close to him, she could smell the light and pleasant fragrance on Xu Baiqing's body, and her cheeks flushed because of her proximity.
Qian Yirong quickly withdrew her gaze from Xu Baiqing. She said she wanted to keep a distance from Xu Baiqing. How could she keep recalling the heart-warming scenes when they were together?
"Rongrong, Rongrong..." Xu Baiqing fastened his seat belt and waited for Qian Yirong to set off. However, he didn't know if she was distracted and kept holding the steering wheel without moving. Xu Baiqing called her softly.
"Huh?" Qian Yirong was startled, and when she came to her senses, she felt a little embarrassed when she saw Xu Baiqing's puzzled gaze. She made an excuse and said, "I was just thinking about something. Sorry to have kept you waiting. Let's set off now."
Qian Yirong started the car as she spoke. When Qian's mother wanted her to move out just now, she gave her the property ownership certificate, so Qian Yirong knew where the house was. It was indeed very close to Shengde High School and it was not small. Anyway, it was more than enough for her to live alone.
The car was not moving fast. Xu Baiqing couldn't help but hold on to her seat belt and think. Now that Qian Yirong had left home, the time she spent with Qian Yirong would be greatly reduced.
And because she left home, there would probably be a lot of rumors in the school, and Qian Yirong might even be bullied by people who felt that she had been abandoned by the Qian family.
This won't do. Xu Baiqing has already decided that from now on she will follow Qian Yirong closely at school, so that Qian Yirong won't be bullied in a place where she is not paying attention.
Soon Qian Yirong arrived at the house near Shengde High School. She had seen it before and found it was a duplex bungalow in a high-end community. The security of this community was quite good. Even though the security guard saw her driving a luxury car, he only let her car in after checking her property certificate.
After parking the car in the underground parking lot of her building, Qian Yirong took Xu Baiqing to the floor where her house was located. This high-end residential complex had one household per floor, and only the corresponding key could enter the corresponding floor.
When Qian Yirong took out the key, Xu Baiqing discovered that she had a spare set of keys, so his eyes lit up slightly and he had an idea in his mind. With a "ding" sound, the elevator arrived. Qian Yirong looked at the place that had obviously been renovated and tidied up and nodded.
It seems that in order to prevent gossip from outsiders, the house given to her is still very good. Although Qian Yirong doesn't like some of the decorations very much, she may not be able to stay there for long, so just use it as a temporary place to stay.
However, Xu Baiqing began to visit with great interest, and then said that some places did not quite suit Qian Yirong's preferences, and they could slowly modify them. However, it was getting late, and they had not eaten dinner yet, so they put down their luggage and prepared to go out for dinner.
After all, the community is near Shengde High School, so Qian Yirong is very familiar with all the entertainment facilities in the surrounding area. When the two were having dinner, Xu Baiqing received a message from Qu Xueer. After telling Qian Yirong, he called her over.
It’s not that Xu Baiqing doesn’t want to live alone with Qian Yirong, but it’s obvious that she cares more about Qian Yirong’s safety. Compared to herself, Qu Xueer is naturally more intimidating, so even if Qian Yirong moves out of the Qian family, she will still be afraid of Qu Xueer.
After Qu Xueer arrived, she was immediately filled with indignation when she heard about Qian Yirong's experience. She also had some suspicions about the culprit in her mind. She was a little hesitant at first, but seeing what happened to Qian Yirong, she felt a sense of grief.
Compared with Qian Yirong, she might be in a better situation, but if she doesn't change, she will always have to rely on others. Xu Baiqing and Qu Xueer looked at each other and knew that she had made up her mind. They nodded in tacit understanding and decided to help each other.
After dinner, Qu Xueer looked at Qian Yirong, who looked a little tired, and did not think about going to her place to keep her warm. However, she also made an agreement with Qian Yirong to find a holiday to visit her.
Although they didn't talk about what happened to Qian Yirong during the meal, Qu Xueer knew what Xu Baiqing was worried about, so she told Xu Baiqing that she would pay attention to Qian Yirong's affairs.
Afterwards, the two of them went to the residential complex. Qian Yirong asked Xu Baiqing to rest in the guest bedroom. Under her coaxing, he agreed in a daze that the guest bedroom would be reserved for Xu Baiqing as his exclusive room, and he also gave Xu Baiqing a spare key.
After she returned to the master bedroom, she realized with a slightly blushing face that she had fallen into Xu Baiqing's beauty trap. She had clearly decided to keep a distance from Xu Baiqing, but as a result, not only did she have her own room at home, but he also gave her the key.
But asking Qian Yirong to get the key back, she knew it was absolutely impossible when she thought of Xu Baiqing looking at her with tears in his eyes. Qian Yirong sighed. She didn't expect that the more she came into contact with Xu Baiqing, the more difficult it seemed for her to refuse her.
Nothing happened that night. When Qian Yirong got up early the next morning, she found Xu Baiqing already busy in the kitchen. Yesterday, in addition to going out to eat, they also went to a nearby supermarket to buy some daily necessities and ingredients.
Because of his previous experience, Xu Baiqing has pretty good cooking skills and can let Qian Yirong taste his cooking skills. Xu Baiqing is very motivated, so after seeing Qian Yirong, he immediately became happy and more motivated.
"Good morning, Rongrong. I made breakfast. Come and have some." Xu Baiqing said. When she was at home, she had a dedicated chef, and she didn't want to take the chef's job, so she had never cooked before. This was Qian Yirong's first time trying her cooking skills.
Time was limited in the morning, so Xu Baiqing didn't make anything too complicated, just some simple noodles. She made some adjustments based on Qian Yirong's preferences that she had observed before. While Qian Yirong was eating, she looked at her nervously, waiting for her feedback. She only felt relieved when Qian Yirong smiled and praised her.
