Chapter 970 - Sileng’s Dad, Don’t Yell at Sileng

The corners of Bai Qi’s lips curled up, revealing a soft smile. “Little fool, I won’t leave, I promise...”

Zhou Sileng heard the promise in his sleep and slowly let go of Bai Qi’s shirt.

Bai Qi placed him under the blanket, and the little guy quickly curled up into a ball. Only his little head was visible, and he slept peacefully and with satisfaction.

Bai Qi looked at him lovingly for a while longer, then stood up to leave.

However, when she turned around, she saw a tall and handsome man standing by the door.

Zhou Yao had just showered, and he was wearing a pair of navy blue pajamas when he stood by the door. At this moment, his deep and narrow eyes wandered on her body gloomily.

Bai Qi had encountered him several times, and this gaze of his was very similar to the one he had in the car the other day. There was a trace of... a dangerous flame in his eyes...

Bai Qi’s ears burned. Only then did she remember that she had been bending over this whole time with her buttocks facing the door...

The shirt was up to her thigh. So when she bent over, the shirt would climb up. It didn’t cover her well. She did not know how long he had been looking, or how much he had seen.

Bai Qi’s little face had a mixed complexion of white and red. She was ashamed and angry. Even if she had accidentally exposed herself, he should not have stood behind her and watched without saying a word.

What a pervert!

She clenched her hands tightly by her sides. She took a deep breath and wanted to say, “Sileng’s dad...”

Just when she opened her mouth, the man by the door gave her a deep look, turned around, and left.

Did he just leave?

Bai Qi wanted to vomit blood. Who exactly was he?

.....

The next morning.

Bai Qi could not sleep all night. She could not get Zhou Yao’s face off of her mind. His gaze was either dark, ruthless, or unbridled as he watched her. She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. It was not until dawn that she finally closed her eyes. And when the morning sun rays shone through curtains, she opened her eyes.

She did not like to sleep in. It seemed to be a habit from the past.

To be honest, she was curious about her profession in the past.

She went to the bathroom and cleaned up herself simply. Bai Qi took off the black shirt and changed into her clothes. She had washed her clothes last night, and they had dried a long time ago.

She left her room when she’d finished. At this time, a little guy pounced on her and hugged her leg. “Good morning, Bai Qi.”

Bai Qi looked down at Zhou Sileng. “Good morning, Sileng.”

“Good, of course, I’m good. Bai Qi, I didn’t have a dream last night. I slept well. Let’s go downstairs and have breakfast now.” Zhou Sileng grabbed Bai Qi’s hand.

“Sileng,” Bai Qi quickly stopped him. “There’s something I want to tell you. Sileng, something happened at the Martial Arts Dojo. I might have to go back. I can’t stay with you.”

The smile on Zhou Sileng’s small face suddenly froze. “Bai Qi, are you kidding me? You promised to stay with me for two days. I don’t care. You can’t go.”

Bai Qi tried to communicate with him, “Sileng, this is an emergency. I have to go back...”

“I don’t care. Bai Qi, you’re not allowed to leave!” Zhou Sileng held Bai Qi’s hand tightly. He kept repeating these two sentences until his eyes turned red.

The sudden news in the morning made Zhou Sileng feel disheartened. It was as if he was living in a land that switched between spring and winter. He was about to cry.

“Sileng...”

Then, a deep and masculine voice said, “What are you fighting about this early in the morning?”

Bai Qi turned her head and saw Zhou Yao walking out of the master bedroom.

Today, he was wearing a white shirt with a classic dark blue plaid business vest and a pair of black suit pants. He walked over with steady and strong footsteps while fastening the silver buttons on his wrist.

Bai Qi had to admit that this man was very handsome. He could casually make a pose and it would outcompete any male models on the runway. He did have the means to flirt.

Zhou Sileng held onto Bai Qi tightly and refused to let go. When his daddy came, he snorted at him because his anger had peaked. Bai Qi was perfectly fine last night. But when his daddy came back, Bai Qi wanted to leave. He couldn’t help but suspect that his daddy was the one who’s making Bai Qi leave.

Zhou Yao stood still with one hand in his pocket. When he saw his son acting like so, his face immediately darkened. “Zhou Sileng!”

Bai Qi quickly pulled Zhou Sileng behind her. She bravely met the man’s eyes. “Sileng’s dad, don’t yell at Sileng. It’s because of me.”

The woman before him was protecting Sileng as if he’s her son. Zhou Yao looked at her as if to say, “Okay, go on.”

Bai Qi felt her scalp tighten. The man’s eagle-like sharp gaze felt as if it could pierce right through her. His overwhelming aura was making her breathless.

Thinking about it, it was amusing. She wasn’t his soldier and didn’t owe him money. She shouldn’t have to fear him.

“Sileng’s dad, this is what happened. Something happened at the Martial Arts Dojo, and I need to rush back. However, I promised to teach Sileng martial arts over the weekend. When Sileng heard that I was leaving, he didn’t want me to leave.” Bai Qi tried her best to straighten her back, her clear voice was extremely smooth.

Zhou Yao looked at the defensive woman in front of him and the little guy hiding behind her. Someone had the little guy’s back, so he wasn’t scared of Zhou Yao anymore. He stuck out his tongue at Zhou Yao and made silly faces.

Zhou Yao’s handsome eyebrows moved. He could not describe the feeling in his heart at this moment. It was as if... it was warm and full.

He parted his long legs and went downstairs. “Ms. Bai, you can stay here. I won’t be home on the weekends.”

“Wow!” Zhou Sileng was laughing and jumping around. “Bai Qi, did you hear that? My dad will be leaving soon. You don’t have to be afraid of him. You can stay with me for the weekend.”

The little guy begged.

Bai Qi was still quite surprised that the devil said that. Since he wasn’t going to be home, Bai Qi lowered her eyes, looked at Zhou Sileng, and said hesitantly, “Then I... will stay.”

“That’s great! Hooray! Hooray! Bai Qi, come, let’s go eat breakfast.” Zhou Sileng dragged Bai Qi downstairs.

....

In the dining room.

Zhou Yao sat on one side while Bai Qi and Zhou Sileng sat on the other side.

Bai Qi found it difficult to swallow her food with the man sitting across from her. She felt restrained and awkward.

Zhou Sileng didn’t notice the subtle atmosphere at all. He even thought that the milk he usually despised was delicious. “Daddy, are you going on a business trip? For how long?”

Zhou Yao was casually cutting a piece of steak. He raised his eyes and looked at Zhou Sileng. “What’s the matter?”

“Nothing, nothing. Hehe, I suddenly remembered that the teacher taught us that our parents are very busy with work and are busy earning money to support the family. At times like that, we should not disturb our parents. So, daddy, go on as many business trips as you need, and don’t worry about me.”

Zhou Sileng omitted a sentence, “Daddy, it’d be best if you go on a business trip for a year and a half before coming back.”

Zhou Yao looked right through his son but didn’t say anything.

“Bai Qi ” Zhou Sileng suddenly remembered something. “Who was that person you disliked? You can tell my daddy, and he’ll take care of him for you.”
