Chapter 1503: Life Always Doesn’t Go as One Wishes
She had wanted to give Xiaofan tuition, but Xiaofan wasn’t afraid of her and didn’t find her imposing. Curtis was both imposing and knowledgeable, making him most suited for scar… ah no, educating mischievous kids like Xiaofan.
“What did you two eat for lunch? Did Teacher Ke eat with you?” asked Mommy Bai.
“Takeaway! Teacher Ke ordered it.” The sincere way in which Bai Xiaofan said ‘Teacher Ke’ caused Bai Qingqing to not bear to look at him.
The so-called takeaway was actually the food Parker had prepared at home. If Bai Xiaofan learned that the cool delivery guy in sunglasses was Muir, he would probably go nuts.
“Who paid? Did you two have enough money? Don’t tell me Teacher Ke paid for it.” Mommy Bai frowned. If that was the case, she would really suspect Ke Di’s motive.
Bai Qingqing naturally wouldn’t admit to it. She quickly said, “I paid.”
Bai Xiaofan also realized what was going on and didn’t speak anymore.
Mommy Bai heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good. I’ll leave you more money tomorrow. Prep the ingredients. I’ll come over and fry it later.”
“Mm, leave it to us,” Bai Qingqing said obediently.
After Mommy Bai left, the siblings squatted in the kitchen and prepped the ingredients. Bai Xiaofan whispered, “Sister, Teacher Ke treats us so well. You’re not really going to marry him in the future, are you?”
Bai Qingqing neither affirmed nor denied. Instead, she asked, “So what?”
Bai Xiaofan scrunched his face. Though he admired him, it didn’t diminish the fear he felt towards Curtis.
It was already terrifying enough to have Teacher Ke as his teacher. If he had to face him every day as a family member… just the thought of it freaked him out.
“I feel that life doesn’t always go as one wishes. Who knows?” Looking resigned, Bai Xiaofan said with his head bowed in dejection.
Bai Qingqing laughed so hard her tummy ached. She slapped him with a piece of vegetable and said, “Hurry up and prep the ingredients.”
…
On Sunday, the egg in Bai Qingqing’s stomach had yet to come out, but she had no choice but to go to school.
On Monday, after the morning run, Bai Qingqing felt a sinking sensation in her stomach. Finally, she was going to give birth.
After the morning exercise, Tang Li ran to her side, hooked her arm with hers, and ran towards the canteen.
Not wanting to engage in vigorous exercise, Bai Qingqing pulled her back.
“You go first. Help me buy two meat buns. I’ll wait for you outside.” Thin beads of perspiration had formed on Bai Qingqing’s face, and her face was drained of color.
Tang Li anxiously glanced at the students ahead and hurriedly agreed, before running off.
Bai Qingqing slowly made her way to the kitchen, then sat down on a flower bed, ignoring the thick layer of dust that had accumulated on top.
Having given birth to several eggs now, she knew that this was just the beginning, that it would only come out after a while. There was no use in feeling anxious.
It was just that the morning self-study period was too long, and she hoped that she’d be able to pull through.
Tang Li came over with a load of breakfast and handed her a bag of buns. The latter only responded after she called her a few times.
“Bai Qingqing, are you still feeling unwell? You look terrible.” Tang Li asked worriedly, “What illness is this, exactly?”
“Nothing, I just ate something wrong.” Bai Qingqing forced a smile and started biting into the hot bun.
After Tang Li finished her noodles, the two of them slowly walked back to the classroom. Not daring to exercise, Bai Qingqing sat in her seat and revised. In any case, the egg wouldn’t come out now anyway.
After the morning self-study period started, just as Bai Qingqing had expected, halfway into the self-revision, she couldn’t hold it in anymore.
The classroom was filled with the rustling of pages and the scribbling of pens on paper. Bai Qingqing shook her legs and kept staring at the time.
Another ten minutes to go… five minutes… three minutes… one minute.
Ring ring ring…
The school bell rang. Without waiting for the teacher to announce the end of class, Bai Qingqing instantly bolted from her seat like an arrow released from the bow.
