Chapter 783: Heartbreaking Him; Warmhearted Him!
Airport lobby.Xiao Bailu loosened her grip, and her luggage almost fell to the ground.
But the instinct of raising a child for many years made her immediately clutch the luggage bag tightly, not letting it fall—when going out with children, you always have to hold the child’s little hand, not letting her get lost.
She took a deep breath, trying to keep her gaze calm, looking at the "family of three" not far away.
The woman was virtuous and gentle, the child lively and adorable, and the man... his eyes were filled with indescribable affection for his child.
He was undoubtedly a good father.
Unfortunately, he was someone else’s good father.
And she had become an outsider, the third party.
Realizing this, Xiao Bailu’s entire heart seemed to be immersed in ice water.
The past few days at the Qingcheng Hotel and the country house, the constant bickering felt like a particularly unreal experience, she even doubted whether it ever really happened.
Xiao Bailu closed her eyes briefly, lowered her gaze, tightened her grip on the luggage bag, and turned to walk in another direction.
He had a private plane to pick him up, while she held an ordinary ticket, so she didn’t need to travel with him.
Just as her steps silently left the "family of three".
Suddenly.
A crisp call stopped her footsteps.
"Big sister!"
The call was so innocent yet full of emotion that she couldn’t pretend not to hear it.
In her hesitation, the little boy had already broken free from Huo Tingzun’s embrace, running with his little legs all the way to Xiao Bailu’s side.
He had to work hard to lift his head to meet Xiao Bailu’s eyes: "Big sister, I’m Xi Bao! Did you forget about the baby? The baby misses you every day, wants to know when you’ll come see the baby again, when we can play together. I even withdrew all my savings to buy you ice cream!"
Xiao Bailu inexplicably felt a lump in her throat.
To have a boy who misses her every day in this world, really... the heart hurt by that jerk of a man was about to melt.
She slightly bent down, touched the little boy’s head, "Thank you, but sister has something to do today, we’ll see each other again in the future."
Even her voice unconsciously softened a bit.
Xi Bao was very downcast: "Big sister, are you leaving already? But I want you to come with me."
Xiao Bailu pressed her lips together.
Although the little boy was very cute, she found it hard to agree to this request.
She weighed how to refuse the little one without hurting his heart: "Sorry, I have work to do..."
Seeing the light in Xi Bao’s blinking big eyes gradually dim.
Suddenly, a man’s deep voice fell from above, "Xiao Bailu, where are you going? Our private plane is here."
The man reached out to grip the luggage in her hand, his face stern, just short of grabbing her hand.
Xiao Bailu looked up to glare at him, stood straight, what did the jerk of a man mean by "our"?
Wasn’t he afraid of being exposed in front of his fiancée and son?
Seeing she didn’t react, Huo Tingzun frowned slightly, "Don’t wander around. The airport just opened, it’s a mixed crowd, very dangerous, come with me."
Just as Xiao Bailu was about to roll her eyes and say, "You’re the most dangerous one, aren’t you?"
She heard the little dumpling beside her, with a milky voice, gently tugging at her clothes and saying: "Big sister, don’t be afraid of danger, I’ll protect you!"
Her heart was truly about to be melted by this little dumpling, leaving her no room to bicker with the jerk of a man.
As the three of them were pulling at each other, Wu Feifei walked over gracefully from not far away, took a glance at Xiao Bailu, and smiled kindly, "Miss Xiao? Thank you for looking after Tingzun during this time. The veteran lawyers at the firm all say you’re very excellent and capable, truly living up to your reputation. There’s no need to be polite, as an employee of the Huo Family, of course, you should fly together on our Huo Family’s plane."
