Chapter 277: 163 Moved (Third Update)_2

Bai Ye instantly felt overwhelmed with embarrassment. He glanced at Bai Qianqian, who was eating like a little pig, before silently averting his gaze.

"This brat, feeling pressured? Yeah, right."

This was actually his son! Too much maternal love spoils the child!

Unfortunately, he didn’t dare to say this to Fang Yuxin; he could only mock in his mind. After hesitating for a moment, Bai Ye picked up a strawberry and popped it into his mouth. With a gentle bite, the sweet taste spread over his tongue, tantalizing his poor taste buds.

Bai Ye paused momentarily, then reluctantly swallowed the strawberry, feeling incredibly foolish. He didn’t dare to look at Fang Yuxin, afraid of seeing her look of disdain. Instead, his gaze shifted back to Bai Qianqian, uncertain of how to start the conversation.

The reason he had come to find Fang Yuxin was actually for a serious matter.

He was not here to mooch off their food!

Pressured by his intense gaze, Bai Qianqian had to stop reaching for the strawberries, his evil little claws halted. He asked discontentedly, "Dad, why are you staring at me? Ma prepared it for you. If you want to eat, just eat, why keep looking at me?" After speaking, he reluctantly placed the small pot he was holding on the coffee table and pushed it toward Bai Ye, "If you want mine, I’ll let you have it."

Yeah, this is his son!

Bai Ye watched, eyes wide, as his foolish son completely wrecked his image, making it even harder to look at Fang Yuxin’s expression.

But Bai Qianqian had no idea what he had done wrong. Seeing Bai Ye’s expression grow uglier, he shrank back nervously and gathered his courage to say, "Dad, didn’t you say you came to find Ma? Why do you keep staring at me and not daring to look at Ma?"

Once again, Bai Ye felt like his foolish son had harshly reminded him of his incompetence, wishing he could grab Bai Qianqian and spank him hard.

Fang Yuxin saw his angry face, with eyes almost shooting fire, and worried he might actually hit Bai Qianqian, hurriedly said, "Since you’re here to see me, just say what you have to say."

Only then did Bai Ye muster the courage to look at Fang Yuxin. He found her expression neutral, showing neither pleasure nor anger - it was impossible to tell if she was disgusted with him.

His heart was all over the place. Before, he had not realized his feelings for her, thinking only that Fang Yuxin was a fine woman, and as the biological mother of his foolish son, he, as a man, should protect her. But now, after falling into Shen Xin’s scheme, he suddenly found himself romantically interested in Fang Yuxin.

Aside from discussing pretty girls with his buddies during his student days, this was the first time he was actually enamored. This made him nervous and at a loss, with no idea how to face Fang Yuxin.

In truth, he understood that his feelings for Fang Yuxin were at best a budding interest and far from a deep, incurable love. But as it was his first time, and Fang Yuxin happened to be the biological mother of his son, it made him feel that Fang Yuxin was different, and he began harboring thoughts of persisting with her.

Unfortunately, he utterly lacked experience in pursuing women. Now, as he looked at Fang Yuxin, he felt his entire being was off, incapable of speaking under her clear yet chilly gaze, and even the thoughts in his heart vaguely felt sullied.

Fang Yuxin had no inkling of Bai Ye’s thoughts. Seeing him avoiding eye contact and not daring to look at her, she couldn’t help but become curious. Bai Ye had sworn a Blood Oath; although she couldn’t constantly read his thoughts through the oath, if Bai Ye harbored any ill will or wronged her, he would be punished by the Blood Oath, and she would receive immediate feedback.

Yet the Blood Oath was quiet without any reaction, meaning Bai Ye hadn’t broken his promise. So why the guilt?

As he continued to remain silent, Fang Yuxin grew impatient and her tone became colder, "If you refuse to speak, you can leave now. I have other matters..."

"Wait!" Bai Ye, seeing Fang Yuxin start to push him away, immediately became anxious. He cast aside whatever little guilt he had and hurriedly said, "I’m here to ask you something. I’m currently stuck at a bottleneck from Superpower Level 1 to second-level and can’t make a breakthrough; I don’t know what’s the issue. If you know, could you tell me?"

Fang Yuxin was taken aback; she hadn’t expected that Bai Ye would come to ask about this.

After a moment of hesitation, she swallowed the words, ’Why should I tell you?’ and said, "Why do you think I would know?"

When Bai Ye spoke of serious matters, he became a different person. The awkwardness disappeared as he said, "Intuition! I feel like you should know, so I came to ask. I hope you can tell me."

Just as Fang Yuxin was about to say something more, her hand was grabbed by Bai Qianqian’s pudgy little hand. His hand was soft and warm, touching Fang Yuxin’s hand and making her heart itch. She turned her head to see Bai Qianqian looking up at her with pleading eyes, "Ma, please help Dad."

Fang Yuxin’s heart instantly melted. She said to Bai Ye, "Stretch out your right hand."

Bai Ye immediately tossed an appreciative look at Bai Qianqian, then, compliant as can be, extended his right hand, taking care to move the plate of strawberries to the side.

Watching his movements, Fang Yuxin said nothing, just leaned forward, resting her fingertips lightly on Bai Ye’s wrist, and said, "I’m going to examine your body, don’t resist."

Bai Ye hastily nodded, his eyes fixed on Fang Yuxin’s slender and fair fingertips, the tender touch against his skin making it hard for him not to become restless.
