Chapter 17: It's Too Late (I)

The afterglow of the slanting sun shines into the room through the glass, and in the dimly lit office, the person lying on the table is asleep, and suddenly the phone rings wake up the person who is still in a daze.

Xu Qiubai: Hey~ Who?

Zhang Xichen: Me! Xichen

Xu Qiubai: Oh, Xichen, what's wrong?

Zhang Xichen: Where are you now?

Xu Qiubai: In the company

Zhang Xichen: I...

Xu Qiubai: What's the matter, if you have something to say, don't grind

Zhang Xichen: Uh, well, in fact, it's nothing, it's just that tomorrow our customer representative is coming and needs me to receive them, but tomorrow you know, I don't have time to pick them up, so...

Xu Qiubai: So... You're just going to use your brain to me?

Zhang Xichen: Anyway, you'll be fine tomorrow

Xu Qiubai: Who said I'm fine, I have to pick up Qiao Luo from school tomorrow

Zhang Xichen: It was night, not daytime, besides, you pick up the children every day and help her find a job, I don't know and think it's your wife and children, hey, now the people in the company are misunderstood

Xu Qiubai: They can think whatever they like, do you know it's not over?

Zhang Xichen: I know what it works, haven't you noticed? In the past, those little secretaries and little assistants didn't get close to you very much

Xu Qiubai: Fortunately, I feel a lot easier

Zhang Xichen: Alas~ You're done, you're hopeless, you said that you haven't been you for the past six months, and you've been revolving around them all day long, and the studio hasn't seen how attentive you are, cooking, watching the children, you have exercised

Xu Qiubai: Did you and Yaxuan quarrel again?

Zhang Xichen: Uh, that's it

Xu Qiubai: I knew that if you two didn't quarrel, how could you have time to teach me

Zhang Xichen: Don't say that I'm so heavy on color and light on friends

Xu Qiubai: Isn't it?

Zhang Xichen: What is it, hey, I'm too lazy to pay attention to you, okay, that's it, tomorrow at nine o'clock,

West Station East Exit,They'll be waiting there.,Don't be late.。。 Ah,,By the way,Don't forget.,You also have a part in this studio.,I'm not the only one who feels distressed if it's messed up.,So,Do well tomorrow.

Xu Qiubai: Alas~alas~

Before Xu Qiubai finished speaking, Zhang Xichen hung up the phone, Xu Qiubai shook his head and put down the phone helplessly, changed his posture and continued to nap.

It's five o'clock, and the people in the company are leaving one after another, if Xu Qiubai is usually in no hurry, he leisurely cleans up his desk, and watches others leave in a hurry, as if there is really something important, in fact, there is nothing important. Now Xu Qiubai has a deep understanding, simply cleaned up the table, quickly changed his clothes and went out.

Inside the car, Qiao Luo sat honestly in the co-pilot, lowered his head and seemed to be thinking about something, usually Qiao Luo is very active, either touching this is touching that, or just lying on the window and looking out, today it was suddenly quiet, Xu Qiubai is really a little unaccustomed. Xu Qiubai looked at him, frowning and sighing for a while, his expression was quite tangled. He teased Jolo as he drove the car

Xu Qiubai: Luo'er, how are you doing in kindergarten today? Is there anything interesting going on?

Qiao Luo raised his head and looked at Xu Qiubai blankly: Ah~~ It's okay!

Xu Qiubai: How is it okay, what? Didn't Xinxin play with you in the past two days?

Qiao Luo: Xinxin, she ,,, today, she sat next to Xiaopang during dinner, and she didn't sit with me

Xu Qiubai: Oh~~ That's it, what about you

Jolo: I, I'm sitting with Cher today

Xu Qiubai: Oh, do you want Xinxin to sit with you?

Qiao Luo looked at him suspiciously: Uncle Bai, is there a way?

Xu Qiubai: Of course

Jolo: What is it? Tell me, Uncle White

Xu Qiubai: Luo'er wants to know?

The little guy nodded in the affirmative with expectant eyes

Xu Qiubai: That's what you're fighting with Chubby for today?

Jolo: Huh?? How do you know I'm in a fight today. After speaking, he covered his mouth with his little hand as much as he could.

Xu Qiubai looked at him and shook his head without answering, and then asked: Xinxin ignores you, you can play with others, I remember that last time there seemed to be a little black girl who liked to play with you, what do you have to go with you, why do you have to pester Xinxin

Jolo lowered his head and stammered: I, I, I don't have to pester her,

Xu Qiubai cleared his throat and said loudly: What did you say? I can't hear you~

Qiao Luo clenched his little hand, and only whispered after making a big determination: I'm not pestering her, I just like to play with her

Xu Qiubai parked the car, turned around and looked at Qiao Luo playfully and said, "Then why are you fighting with Xiaopang?" She can play with you or with others, it's her freedom

Qiao Luo said angrily: I don't like Chubby, I don't like Xinxin with Chubby, I don't like it either, Xinxin ignores me for Chubby

Xu Qiubai: Oh??? Did Xinxin ignore you? Why?

Qiao Luo collapsed in annoyance: I don't know, I didn't recruit her, I didn't provoke her, but today she just ignored me

Xu Qiu looked at him innocently, and said seemingly casually: Do you feel very wronged, you didn't do anything, Xinxin ignored you, and besides, when others asked you to play, you would be in no mood, and kept thinking, why didn't Xinxin ignore me? Why are you with someone else? And it's still a chubby you usually hate. Am I right?

Qiao Luo looked at Xu Qiubai adoringly, and said loudly: How do you know???

Xu Qiubai just looked at him with a smile and didn't speak, Qiao Luo stood up and lay down in Xu Qiubai's arms, grabbed his clothes, shook him vigorously, and said while shaking: Uncle Bai~~ Say, say, how do you know

Before Xu Qiubai could reply, the car door opened.

"Know what?" Qiao Lan, who was standing outside the car, looked at the two hugging each other curiously, and didn't know what to say for a while. (Qiao Luo's two little hands tightly dragged Xu Qiubai's neck, Xu Qiubai was afraid that Qiao Luo's action would be too big and he would touch it, so he dragged his ass with his arm, one tried to please, and the other smiled without saying a word, such an intimacy was like a pair of intimate father and son) Qiao Lan came back to his senses, cleared his throat in embarrassment, and asked: What are you doing?

Xu Qiubai: Uh, we, we, we're discussing the problem, well, right, discussing the problem

Qiao Lan: Discussion questions?? What can you two discuss. Saying that, Qiao Lan hugged Qiao Luo, who was hanging on Xu Qiubai's body, followed into the car, and closed the door.

Jolo slumped into the back seat and muttered in a low voice, "Why can't we discuss the two of us?"

Qiao Lan turned his head to look at Qiao Luo, who was pouting, and asked, "Okay, then tell me, what were you discussing just now?"

Qiao Luo just answered casually, not thinking that Qiao Lan would ask, and Qiao Luo, who couldn't think of it for a while, sent a distress signal to his Uncle Bai.

How could Xu Qiubai not know his little thoughts? He snickered and was ready to explain. Before he could speak, Qiao Lan spoke, Qiao Lan glanced at him and said lightly: Qiubai, drive.

Xu Qiubai opened his mouth, glanced at Qiao Luo helplessly, and then responded: Oh, good!

Qiao Luo looked at it, it was over, the distress signal was intercepted, Xu Qiubai looked at the little face that was about to crumple, sighed helplessly in his heart, and then in the direction that Qiao Lan couldn't see, his right hand clenched his fist and gently knocked on his left shoulder.

Qiao Luo understood at once, half a year's tacit understanding was not cultivated in vain, Luo Er raised her head, and said to her mother's eyes: We just discussed the problem between men
