It's already holiday, Bai Jing stays on campus, and Shu Xiaoruan is planning to go home directly.
The two said goodbye at the fork in the road. Lin Yan lived close to Shu Xiaoruan's home, so it was natural for him to take on the responsibility of sending her back.
But before leaving, he couldn't help but look at Bai Jing one more time.
Bai Jing knew that he had always liked the heroine, but because he was afraid that after he expressed his feelings, the two of them would never be able to go back to the way they were before, he carefully maintained their friendship.
Now seeing that Shu Xiaoruan seemed to regard her as her best friend, she seemed to feel that even her best friend status was no longer secure.
Lu Liang rode a bicycle when he came here today and parked it next to the school cafeteria. Now he just happened to send Bai Jing back to school and then pick up the bike to go home.
After Shu Xiaoruan and the others left, Lu Liang was eager to find out what Bai Jing had not finished saying.
But I didn't expect Bai Jing to suddenly bring up another topic, and then I forgot about this matter.
The next day, Bai Jing was going to tutor Xiaotang.
I had just been talking for five minutes when the phone at home rang.
...
...
Bai Jing saw Jiang Han answer the phone, and frowned after just saying a few words, his tone a little solemn.
"Will you be gone for two weeks? Or should we leave now?"
It looked like something important, so Bai Jing slowed down her lecture a bit and tried to let Jiang Han be quiet during the call.
Seeing Jiang Han's brows getting more and more furrowed, he finally said in a deep voice, "I know," and then hung up the phone.
Bai Jing saw that she looked a little anxious, and thought about what she had said before, "Is there anything inconvenient?"
"Hey," Jiang Han sighed deeply, and raised his hand to press hard on the center of his brow a few times, as if he could put away the insecurity. "I have a temporary mission, I have to go out for two weeks, and I will leave soon."
This task was supposed to be done after the New Year, but I don’t know how it was suddenly brought forward and happened to coincide with the New Year. I probably won’t even be able to have the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Thinking of this, Jiang Han sighed helplessly again.
She looked up at the clock on the wall and saw that it would be too late if she didn't pack her things.
While packing, he asked Bai Jing, "Xiao Jing, do you have time later?"
Bai Jing only had to tutor Xiaotang today, and planned to go back home to study on her own for the rest of the time. She really had no other plans afterwards.
So she nodded and responded obediently.
"Yes, do you need me to do anything?"
While Jiang Han was packing up the documents he was going to use, he said to Bai Jing, "Xiao Jing, if you have time, I would like to ask you to help me take Xiao Tang to the Jiang family later, is that okay?"
Bai Jing was stunned for a moment, but didn't hesitate much and quickly said of course.
"That's great!" Jiang Han glanced at the time again, his hands moved faster, and his tone was also hurried, "I will call home and explain the matter later, because I will be leaving soon, so I can only trouble you today."
After all, Jiang Han had always taken good care of her before, and now he was just helping her with a small favor, so Bai Jing naturally agreed readily.
"It's just a small matter, don't worry," Bai Jing smiled slightly, "and I know the way, I will definitely take Xiaotang there carefully later."
Jiang Han trusted her very much. Just then, he had packed his things. He nodded to Bai Jing, gave Tang Xiaotang a few words, then picked up a bunch of things and went out.
Xiaotang saw that her mother had already gone out. She also heard the phone call just now and knew that her mother would be away for half a month and would not be able to celebrate the New Year with her this year. There was still a bit of loss on her little face.
Bai Jing raised her hand and touched her head, asking for the child's opinion, "Xiaotang, when do you want to go to your grandparents? Should we go back after tutoring? Or should we go directly there now?"
Tang Xiaotang blinked, "Can we go now?"
Bai Jing also blinked at her, "Because it will be twelve o'clock after the tutoring. If we leave at that time, we might be hungry. Besides, we still have to explain your mother's matter to your grandparents."
Xiaotang felt that what she said made sense, and there was no more disappointment on her face. She took the initiative to ask in a tentative tone, "Then... shall we go now?"
Bai Jing smiled gently and asked her to pack up her things first, while she went to check whether all switches and doors and windows were closed.
The Jiang family and Jiang Han’s residences are not close to each other, and the Chinese New Year is about a week away, so the street is gradually beginning to feel the festive atmosphere.
Bai Jing also wanted to take a short break, so she took Xiaotang for a walk nearby, bought some things, and then headed towards Jiang's house.
Wen Ying happened to be on holiday today, and was busy tending to various flowers and plants at home, while thinking about what reason she could give Jiang Ziqian to ask him to come home for dinner.
Unexpectedly, the doorbell at home rang suddenly.
The aunt at home went out to buy something. She had the key in her hand, so she didn't need to ring the doorbell. The same went for my son.
But who would come at this time?
Wen Ying arrived at the door and took a look outside, only to find an unexpected person standing outside.
Why is Bai Jing here?
As soon as this thought came to her mind, she couldn't help but think of the dream.
...Have you come to my house to take responsibility?
Wen Ying opened the door with mixed feelings, keeping a gentle and kind smile on her face. Just as she was about to say hello to Bai Jing, Tang Xiaotang had already jumped out from behind Bai Jing, threw himself into her arms, and called out in a crisp and sweet voice.
"Aunt!"
"It's Xiaotang?" Wen Ying was a little surprised. She didn't expect that she would come with Bai Jing. After being stunned for a moment, she quickly came to her senses and put on a smile again. "Why did you come here suddenly? Where's your mother?"
Bai Jing also greeted the other party, brought up the fruits she bought on the road, and explained the situation to Wen Ying.
"...So this is what happened," Wen Ying nodded. Seeing Bai Jing bringing something, she thought that she was here to ask for an explanation, and felt a little embarrassed. "Why are you here to buy something? Come in and sit down."
Bai Jing smiled faintly.
Now that he has realized what he is thinking, he naturally cannot act too casually when he goes to the Jiang family again, and he must be more considerate in terms of etiquette.
Xiaotang still remembered that he hadn't finished the previous question, so he pulled Bai Jing to sit behind the table, took out the exercise book and continued to listen to her explain the questions.
Bai Jing naturally would not refuse. She adjusted her sitting position and continued what she was going to say before.
As I was talking, an idea suddenly popped into my mind.
She is now at Teacher Jiang's house, teaching Xiaotang.
The mood is quite... strange.
