"You two are a perfect match," the man said to them with a smile.
After leaving the baby store, Bai Le was preoccupied. After retrieving his car from the underground parking lot, Xi Yan did not call a driver but drove himself.
When Bai Le tried to get into the passenger seat, he stopped him, saying, "You sit in the back."
Upon hearing this, Bai Le obediently returned to the back seat. He looked around at the various baby supplies piled up all around him, and realized that even the trunk was overflowing. How exaggerated was that?
"Why are you driving yourself?" Bai Le asked curiously.
Xi Yan glanced at him in the rearview mirror and said calmly, "Today, I just want the two of us."
Upon hearing this, Bai Le paused, then realized, "Oh no, that strange feeling is back."
Xi Yan turned the steering wheel slightly and asked casually, "What were you thinking about just now?"
Bai Le sighed, "I'm thinking about my child's education." He wondered what kind of personality his baby would have, and what if he raised him wrong? He had never thought about this before.
Xi Yan seemed to enjoy him discussing this topic, raising an eyebrow. "Have you figured it out yet?"
Bai Le nodded, his face serious. "If the two of us argue, we must make sure the children don't see it."
Xi Yan paused slightly, then shook his head, saying calmly, "Don't overthink it. That kind of thing won't happen."
Bai Le clearly didn't believe him. "How can you be so sure?"
Xi Yan didn't speak, staring at the flashing yellow light, then stepped on the brakes and stopped.
His hands rested on the steering wheel, and you could see the veins bulging faintly on the back of his hands.
Because he knew he would always be the one to compromise.
Seeing that Xi Yan was silent, Bai Le felt the atmosphere was a bit heavy. He then thought of what happened at the hospital, and how he almost miscarried. Xi Yan was probably already a little angry.
So, she mustered up the courage to tug at his sleeve and whispered, "... I'm sorry, about what happened at the hospital... I was thinking about it, but when I found out, my mind went completely blank. Even that tiny thought made me regret it immediately."
Xi Yan grasped his hand lightly, without turning her head, and said, "I know."
Bai Le was taken aback.
Xi Yan held his hand and continued calmly, "I hope you can love this child a little more in the future."
Even after returning home, Bai Le remained in a daze, his mind still replaying Xi Yan's words. When he saw Xi Yan enter the study, he inexplicably rushed forward and grabbed his clothes, his tone somewhat aggrieved.
"It's not what you think. I love him very much, otherwise I wouldn't have suffered so much because of him."
Xi Yan looked down at his pitiful appearance, frowned slightly, and knew that he had misunderstood her meaning. Her dark eyes narrowed.
"I know." He ruffled Bai Le's hair, which was a little messy from rushing to run, a faint, indulgent smile playing on his lips. "You did a great job."
Bai Le stared at his smile, paused, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.
Back in his room, Bai Le lay on the bed next to Xi Yan. He could see Xi Yan's pillow as soon as he turned over. Bai Le unconsciously reached out and touched it. When he realized what he was doing, he was startled and immediately pulled back as if he had touched a hot potato.
He touched his rapidly beating heart, sat up abruptly, and immediately picked up his phone to call Wu Hua, his best friend in the world.
I have a question for you.
Wu Hua's carefree voice rang out from the other end. "What's up?"
I feel like I've been acting a little strange lately.

Route~ I haven't decided on a nickname for the baby yet, does anyone have any suggestions? Could you show me yours? I'll send a red envelope as a thank you if I choose one [doge emoji]. I checked the outline and realized I still have a lot to write. The grass (a type of plant) Xi Defeng is still unresolved, but his antics will soon become a major boost for Lele and Fourth Master to confirm their relationship. Please be gentle when you criticize him [doge emoji].

Chapter 32
When Wu Hua arrived at the Xi Family mansion, it was already the next morning. As soon as he entered, he saw Bai Le standing on the lawn in the yard, one hand on his hip and the other holding a hose, watering the flowers.
"Damn, why are you doing this yourself?" Wu Hua found it unbelievable. How could Fourth Master let him do this kind of work? You know, he's Fourth Master's precious darling now, treated like a precious gem, and no one is allowed to touch a single hair on his head.
Bai Le hummed a tune as he watered the flowers, saying, "I'm so bored and have nothing to do."
Wu Hua winked at him and teased, "Not bad, brother, you're living the life of a rich lady now."
Upon hearing his teasing, Bai Le sprayed water towards the patch of grass at his feet, grinding his teeth menacingly, "I didn't call you here to hear you tease me."
Startled by the sudden pouring water, Wu Hua panicked and hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! What's wrong? Tell me quickly!"
Bai Le grunted, turned off the water from the tap, and then wiped his hands.
He invited him to sit in the pavilion next door. The pavilion was furnished with comfortable tables and chairs, and fresh fruits and vegetables were laid out on the tables. Bai Le casually picked up a banana and gave it to him.
