Bai Qi was indeed late because of work delays, he was striding into the restaurant, the laptop in his hand was still lit, it seemed that the lid had been closed a second ago, he put the computer on the table, beckoned to the waiter, and motioned to bring the menu, while ignoring the anger on Zhou Biyun's face, he asked with a smile, "I'm sorry, I've been waiting for a long time, why don't you order first?" ”

He knew that Zhou Biyun was urging marriage tightly, but as soon as he sat down, he showed his identity as "unmarried", and did not give their mother and daughter face at all, which made Chen Yi's expression a little embarrassing, but it was very strange, there was a vicious pleasure in his heart, as if she was forced to support the ruins and finally waited for a missile from the sky.

"What do you mean, it's just a joke to our family?" Zhou Biyun sat up straight, under the reflection of the light, as if she was going to record a confession for a criminal, she suppressed her anger, but her voice was raised, and every word was like a fingernail scraping glass," I know that you men are never in a hurry, forty-one flowers, but the golden period of women is very short, we Yiyi will be thirty years old soon, others have two babies at her age, you don't get married is your personal will, I have no right to evaluate as an outsider, but Yiyi is my daughter, her life is my life, don't delay her, you regret wanting to get married after five or ten years, you still have a market, we are different Yiyi. ”

Bai Qi quickly swiped the dishes on the menu with his fingers, turned a page, from top to bottom, signaled to the waiter that he wanted everything, and at the same time retorted to her seriously, "Auntie, first of all, a woman forty can also be a flower, you have to believe in Chen Yi's charm, age will not devalue hers, secondly, her life is hers, yours is yours, although you are her mother, but in the case of normal birth, old age, sickness and death, you can't participate in the second half of her life, so it is also a fact that Chen Yi can only ask for more blessings." ”

After sitting in the office for a long time, Zhou Biyun didn't have many young people in contact, which person who walked in the door was not respectful to her, most of her life had never seen someone who contradicted her like this, she was speechless for a while, until Bai Qi asked repeatedly, "Auntie, do you look at the menu?" What else do you want to eat?"

She finally came back to her senses and tried her best to suppress her anger, just to maintain the demeanor of her elders, but her voice was already squeezed out from between her teeth, "Bai Qi, you can't be so selfish, Auntie understands knowledge and reasoning, maybe not as much as you young people, and her mouth can't argue with you, but the difference between men and women in terms of body, I still know, our family Yiyi may still be very pleasing to men at the age of forty or fifty, this, I have confidence——" She glanced at Chen Yi, and was very satisfied with her daughter, who was eight points similar to her appearance but much more beautiful, and her face naturally showed pride, then looked back at Bai Qi and continued, "However, a woman's golden age for childbearing does have a time limit, which you can't refute. ”

Bai Qi smiled lightly, "No, Auntie, modern technology has advanced, there are many ways for women to have children at any age, but it's just a matter of money, as for money, it's the least problematic for me, but it doesn't matter if Chen Yi and I want to get married as soon as possible, because I don't just don't want to get married, I don't want children yet." ”

"Nonsense!" Zhou Biyun finally couldn't help it, when she screamed, the waiters in the lobby were shocked, the design of this store is very space-sensitive, so the seats are far away from each other, and they are separated into semi-enclosed private rooms with screens, because there are not many guests, it is even more empty, Zhou Biyun's voice is very flat and thunderous, she almost jumped up from the chair, pointed at Bai Qi is head and face and scolded," What kind of ecstasy soup did you pour into us Yiyi, our family and your surname Bai didn't have a holiday at all, when you and Yiyi got close, we never objected, every time we left you at home to eat, and we didn't have any defense against you, who thought that you had such a mind, brainwashed our daughter for so long, lied to her, delayed her, and wanted to destroy her, sure enough, the son inherited his father's business, the genetics are the same, your parents are not shallow, you are also a natural bad seed!"

At the beginning, the case committed by Bai Qi's parents caused a sensation in the small town, but Chen Yi had already gone to Beijing, so he didn't hear about it, after the crime, Bai Qi was not immediately taken to the United States by relatives, before that, he and his sister survived a difficult time in the local area, and his status in the school, who was once a darling, plummeted, and many people were ridiculed and ridiculed, and many people violently inflicted violence on him openly and secretly, because Bai Qi's parents committed the crime of embezzlement of public funds in addition to corruption and bribery, and those working families who were owed wages transferred their anger to the Bai family brothers and sisters。

18-year-old Bai Qi thinks that he is an adult, and he should be able to bear all this, so whether it is a wine bottle that is suddenly thrown from a distance, or a gangster who is ambushed in the alley and suddenly rushes out to punch and kick him, he can face it in his own way, there are strangers who throw things and want to hit him, just dodge, and there are gangsters who provoke trouble under the guise of asking his father to repay his debts, he just waves his fist to meet it, but what about the sugar? She is still a child.

In order to protect Bai Tang, he escorted her to and from school as much as possible, and told her to keep a low profile as much as possible inside and outside the school, if someone scolded her, don't talk back, if someone tried to hit her, immediately flee to the teacher's office, as an older brother, he tried his best to complete the work that should belong to his parents.

Day and night, the elder brother only cares about revolving around his sister, even so, there are still moments when he can't reach him, once he fought with the gangsters, his face was scratched and he didn't dare to go to the clinic for stitches first, but he was ready to rush to the gate of the primary school where Bai Tang was, but he didn't wait for her to get out of school, he waited for another ten minutes, every minute made him scratch his heart with a hundred claws, logically speaking, he shouldn't have heard it, but he did hear Bai Tang's immature voice roaring, "Brother - brother - "

Breaking through the interception of the security guards at the school gate with brute force, Bai Qi rushed towards the teaching building where Bai Tang studied, and when he passed through a group of elementary school students, he was already more than one meter eight tall, like a giant eagle skimming the grassland, with a fierce and murderous atmosphere, scaring the children into dodging like the wind blowing wheat waves.

In the end, he really heard Bai Tang crying "brother" in a hoarse voice, every sound was like a blunt scissors cutting his heart, it was the women's toilet, he didn't think about it at all, so he rushed in, and saw a group of little girls surrounding Bai Sugar lying on the ground, her hair was cut messily by them, one piece here and another, revealing a small piece of scalp, broken hair all over the ground, suddenly looked at Bai Qi's eyes, as if Bai Tang was a broken rag doll.

His reason fell apart at this moment, and the little girls were not only cut off by him, but also slapped by him one by one, and finally the teachers rushed to hear the sound and worked together to knock open the door that was locked from the inside, so that they were rescued from crying to the point of losing their voices, and since then, the Bai family's criminal genes have become even more notorious.

The frightened Bai Tang took Bai Qi's hand and walked on the road, her head was covered with her brother's school uniform, her face was hidden in the shadows, her lips were trembling all the time, her tears had dried up, but her voice was still crying, "Brother, are my parents bad people? They have been arrested, will they go home? How long will it take to go home? After we come back, can we move?"

There was no response for a long time, Bai Tang only felt that the hand holding her was getting tighter and tighter, she stopped, turned her face sideways to look at her brother, and found that he had been looking at her.

"White sugar ......" The blood on Bai Qi's face has dried up, he seems to be wearing half a dark red mask, he looks a little oozing, but his eyes are firm and gentle, he said, "You don't need Mom and Dad, we don't need it, they can give it to you, I can too, I'm stronger than Dad, smarter than Mom, I can protect you." ”

What he meant in his words was that Mom and Dad didn't come home for a while, Bai Tang understood, she bit her lip tightly, but she couldn't control the twitching of her facial muscles, she couldn't be as decisive and strong as her brother, she still wanted and needed Mom and Dad, she hadn't tried to grow up out of the arms of her parents-

Bai Qi hugged Bai Sugar tightly - her embrace made her feel both familiar and strange, when her parents were still there, he was the most unreliable and most like a ball Bai Qi, rolling around and playing with her in the house every day, but now, he is like a thick and hard boulder, like a brother who can shelter her from the wind and rain.

He rubbed the shuffled hair that was covered under her clothes, and said in a solemn tone of oath, "Don't be afraid, my brother is here, with my brother here, you don't have to be afraid of anything, no one can bully you, I will take care of you, cook for you, grow up with you, buy you what you like, play with it, and ensure that you become the happiest child and the happiest adult in the world." ”
