Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1322: 1321 Give Tongtong a Home

Bai Yiyi was stunned!

Her eyes widened in shock as she looked at the man opposite her.

She felt certain she had heard wrong; it had to be the case.

He disliked her so much; how could he possibly talk about dating her.

“What did you say?”

A few seconds later, she asked uncertainly.

Gu Kai’s gaze shifted slightly, but his tone remained calm and gentle: “I said, us dating, maybe it could give Tongtong a complete home.”

He was also unsure.

Whether he and Bai Yiyi, two people who always argued when together, could really live together, Gu Kai only knew that he had grown fond of this woman before him.

He hesitated for a long time before he finally spoke those words.

For Gu Kai, to let go of the grudge from the previous generation, to fall in love, marry, and spend a lifetime with the daughter of the enemy who killed his mother, was truly not an easy thing to do.

Last time, when Bai Yiyi said she wanted to keep her distance, he really wanted to stop right there, to never see her again and thus prevent himself from falling deeper…

But emotions are not something he could control. He kissed her last night, and at that moment, he wanted to tell her these words, but he was interrupted by Bai Yiyi.

Gu Kai had spoken on a whim, divulging the thoughts he had been keeping to himself.

Bai Yiyi’s facial expressions were rich with variation, and her heartbeat became chaotic due to Gu Kai’s words. She subconsciously tightened her grip on the spoon she was holding, and her lips slightly pursed.

Gu Kai watched her quietly, patiently waiting for her answer.

In the living room, Tongtong played happily by herself.

Meanwhile, in the dining room, the atmosphere had become subtle and charged with an ambiguous tension. Bai Yiyi hesitated, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

Gradually, that subtle tension dissipated into silence. Gu Kai seemed to lose his patience and stood up, unable to bear it any longer, “I’ll give you three days to think about it. If you’re willing, we can try dating. If you’re not, then pretend I never mentioned it. I have things to attend to at the hospital, so I’ll be leaving now.”

“…”

Bai Yiyi’s mouth opened, then closed again.

Watching as Gu Kai’s tall figure left the dining room and disappeared from her sight.

A minute later, she heard the sound of a car driving away. She was startled and suddenly remembered that Gu Kai mentioned the driver had left after dropping him off.

That meant he was driving her car.

When she had returned earlier, he had asked her for the car keys. Could it be that he had been prepared for this moment?

Bai Yiyi stepped out of the dining room and went to the balcony to look outside; indeed, her car had been driven away by Gu Kai. She frowned and cursed under her breath.

Driving with an injured hand, did he no longer want that hand?

“Mommy, Daddy left.”

Tongtong belatedly realized and, abandoning her intelligence jigsaw puzzle, ran to Bai Yiyi, clutching the hem of her clothes.

The nanny, who was watering the flowers in the garden, also rushed in after seeing Gu Kai driving away: “Miss Bai, Doctor Gu’s hand injury hasn’t healed yet, how could he drive off by himself?”

Bai Yiyi picked up Tongtong and instructed the nanny: “Never mind him, clean up the dining room. I’m taking Tongtong to Ranran’s house; you can pick her up later.”

“Okay, Miss Bai.”

The nanny responded with a smile and immediately ran into the dining room to tidy up.

Bai Yiyi brought Tongtong to Wen Ran’s Home, and to her surprise, Mo Xiuchen was also there.

“Yiyi, how come you’re here? Did you and Tongtong eat already?” Wen Ran’s family had just finished their meal, and she was wiping Xin Xin’s mouth clean. Ziyi had already wiped his mouth, placed the napkin on the table, slid down from the chair, rushed over, and began to play with his toys together with Tongtong.

“Ranran, I’ll take them upstairs to play for a bit; you guys have fun.” Mo Xiuchen glanced at Bai Yiyi and noticed she seemed troubled, so he proactively took on the role of a nurturing dad.

Wen Ran nodded with a smile: “Okay, I will come find you guys in a bit.”

Mo Xiuchen managed to drag and carry the four children up the stairs, while Wen Ran invited Bai Yiyi to sit on the couch and offered her a piece of fruit.

“Ranran, I won’t eat, I just had my meal.”

Bai Yiyi shook her head, and Wen Ran placed the fruit back into the fruit bowl, looking at her inquiringly, “Yiyi, is something troubling you?”

“Ah, why do you ask that?” Bai Yiyi’s eyes flickered as she responded with a question instead of an answer.

That sentence from Doctor Gu was like a giant stone thrown into the calm lake of her heart, not creating ripples but rather huge waves.

It was not something that could be calmed down in just a minute or two.

The feelings in her heart right now were too chaotic to be expressed with words, and her visit to Wen Ran was not to seek her advice.

Wen Ran let out a light laugh, “You look like you’re weighed down with worries. Oh, let me tell you some good news, my brother just called.”

“Your brother called you?”

Bai Yiyi’s expression suddenly changed.

“Yeah.”

Wen Ran narrowed her eyes, feeling even more certain that Bai Yiyi was troubled.

Her reaction was too strong.

“Ranran, what did he say to you?” Bai Yiyi, her mind muddled by Doctor Gu’s words, immediately thought of Gu Kai upon hearing Wen Ran mention her brother, her brain reflexively making the connection.

She forgot that Wen Ran’s brothers weren’t just Gu Kai, but also Wen Jin.

Wen Ran observed Bai Yiyi struggling to appear calm, unable to completely hide her nervousness, and with a blink and a smile, she said: “He said that he’ll soon find me a sister-in-law.”

“Ranran, don’t listen to his nonsense.”

Bai Yiyi’s heart skipped a beat, instinctively countering.

“Why would it be nonsense? Yiyi, do you think my brother is no good?” Wen Ran, sharp as ever, sensed something and decided to mislead Bai Yiyi further, continuing her questioning.

Bai Yiyi, upon her question, forced an unnatural smile, lifted her hand to brush aside a lock of hair by her ear and deflected, “Ranran, I also have some good news I want to tell you.”

“What good news?”

Wen Ran’s eyes were smiling as she gazed at Bai Yiyi.

“The medical incident, there’s been a clue. Someone gave a lead to Lu Zhiyan this afternoon.”

“Oh, that. My brother already told me about it. Yiyi, did you come here specially to tell me this?”

“Yeah, that’s right, I thought you didn’t know, but it turns out you were already aware.” Bai Yiyi, recalling something, frowned in annoyance, “Ranran, I need to go to work.”

“Yiyi, actually, what I was going to tell you just now was about this very thing, but as soon as I mentioned my brother, you cut me off.”

Wen Ran looked at her frustrated expression, her smile becoming even more radiant.

When Bai Yiyi heard her say this, she gave a flickering glance away, “Right, I forgot, you have two brothers. I was so annoyed at Gu Kai I wasn’t thinking straight. Ranran, I came here, wanting to borrow your family’s Qing Feng as a driver for a bit.”

“How did my brother annoy you? Or could it be, I guessed right just now, that he really is looking to find me a sister-in-law?” Wen Ran chuckled heehee, her eyes intently fixed on Bai Yiyi.

Bai Yiyi frowned, trying to calm herself down: “Maybe, women who fancy him are not few; in his own words, they could surround A City, finding you a sister-in-law is a matter of minutes for him.”
