Chapter 520: He is my brother-in-law (20)

Ling Chuxia took a tissue by herself, wiped away the tears from her face, and blew her nose by the way.
In front of him was a pot of hot soup. Ling Chuxia turned his eyes, got up, walked into the kitchen, took two empty bowls, walked back, and then picked up the soup and poured two bowls separately.
After the pouring, she turned her head to look at Bai Yixuan's side. He was still talking on the phone. She was worried that he didn't know when he was going to talk about it. It would not be a joke if he really caught a cold.
She picked up the soup and walked towards Bai Yixuan. As she approached slowly, what Bai Yixuan said came into her ears word by word.
"What? I left without eating? I don't know the reason? I can't contact people yet? What's the matter?"
"I don't know? I don't know you won't check it out?"
"Forget it, I understand, I will take care of this matter."
Bai Yixuan cut off the phone, but before a second, the phone rang again. Bai Yixuan looked at the phone screen again, his eyebrows were obviously frowned, but his expression suddenly became serious.
His hand was slightly clenched, and then he picked up the phone and pressed the answer button. His voice became respectful and polite, "Dad."
Ling Chuxia's footsteps could not help but stagnate slightly.
She and Bai Yixuan have been together for more than half a month. During this time, she has never heard him mention his family members, and Bai Yixuan's father, in her impression, only stayed in her childhood.
It was an uncle with a serious face, always stern, completely different from the amiable father she imagined. At that time, she was still a little afraid of him.
On the other end of the phone, I didn’t know what I said to Bai Yixuan. Bai Yixuan’s eyebrows became tighter and tighter, and his eyes gradually sank. His voice was no longer as gentle and moist as when he was talking to her, but rather alienated in coldness, not at all. It's like talking to his father, more like his boss is talking.
"Tonight's matter, I think it's just a misunderstanding. Tomorrow I will handle it myself."
"Don't worry, I will settle this cooperation case."
"Okay, please pay attention to your body, good night."
The last sentence is obviously a care and concern, but when I say it from Bai Yixuan's mouth, it feels stiff, like a routine.
To be honest, it was the first time Ling Chuxia saw Bai Yixuan's expression, and the tone of voice made her a little uncomfortable.
After Bai Yixuan finished talking on the phone, he raised his eyes and found that Ling Chuxia didn't know when he was standing in front of him. His eyes froze, but quickly, the corners of his lips were bent, his eyes faded away from indifference and alienation, and he recovered his usual Gentle eyes, softly said: "Why are you here?"
Looking at the rapid change in his expression, Ling Chuxia blinked his big eyes, and then replied: "Oh, I'll get you soup, you can drink it soon."
"Ok."
Bai Yixuan did not refuse, and took the soup from Ling Chuxia and drank it in one gulp.
Ling Chuxia looked at him, thinking about what he said just now, hesitated for a moment, and still asked: "Brother Xuan, is the cooperation case you just mentioned, is it... the cooperation case with Shi?"
Bai Yixuan drank the soup and moved the bowl away, with a trace of doubt in his eyes, "How do you know this?"
Ling Chuxia didn't want to tell him about tonight, lest he worry, she just said lightly: "In the afternoon, the manager mentioned something." After a pause, she bit her lower lip and asked hesitantly. One sentence, "Brother Xuan, is this cooperation case... important to you?"
