The appointment was in the evening, and he was waiting in the store with the baby in his arms, and all the girls came to play with the baby.

"This baby is so cute! The eyes are so big, and the little face is white and tender."

"what's your name?"

Huo Bai smiled awkwardly and lowered his eyes.It's been more than a month since I gave birth to him, and I haven't even had time to name him.In the Huo family, he didn't have that kind of thought, and now he is still running around for a place to stay.

In the evening, Huo Bai pushed the stroller and followed the agent to the house to see.The neighborhood where the house is located has convenient transportation. Not only is there a bus stop at the door, but there is also a subway to take when going out from the other side.Although it is an old community, it has an elevator.Everything is very suitable for my needs.

The moment the door opened, Huo Bai became a little nervous.What appeared was an old lady who was over half a century old and welcomed them in kindly.

"Xiao Zhuo hasn't come back yet. He's very busy with work and is often away from home. It's only when he's resting that he's free these two days..."

While the old lady was talking about it, Huo Bai had already secretly looked around.In the past few days of looking for a house, he went to see a lot of places. They were either vacant or poorly decorated with basic living functions.This is the first time he has entered an ordinary person's home full of life.Without those expensive furniture and decorations, maybe the whole house is not worth as much as a room in Huo's house.But it looked clean and tidy, something was cooking in the kitchen, steaming, and the aroma of the food floated to the living room, making the temperature in the air a bit higher.

The intermediary person didn't wait with him, declined his request to stay for dinner and left.The old lady pulled Huo Bai to look at the vacated room.

The area is not big, only half the size of his original room, which is enough as a place to stay.Although it is a guest room, it has been decorated for some time. It is not only as clean and tidy as the living room, but also decorated with many daily necessities and small accessories. It does not look empty at all, giving people a warm feeling.

"Like it?"

"I like it." Huo Bai nodded.When the baby saw the stuffed bear, Yiyi screamed and wanted to grab it.

"That belongs to someone else..."

Huo Bai reprimanded in a low voice, the old lady had already handed the toy to the baby. "Don't be so alien, this is left by the girl who lived here before, and I keep it."

"Thank you Auntie.

He looked down at the happy baby, and something warm flowed into his chest.The resistance in his heart disappeared at some point, and Huo Bai had the idea of ​​wanting to stay.It's been too long since I got someone else's good.Even if it was obtained from Xiang Siqi, it was good with a purpose.Now he finally understands a little bit.Staying in that home and gaining a little warmth, I couldn't help being grateful and wanting to give back.

Thinking of Xiang Siqi's name, Huo Bai seemed to be stimulated and trembled all over.He forced himself not to think of that man again.

That man took advantage of his own psychology and deceived himself.

Sad and ridiculous fact.He will never do this kind of thing again in his life.

Huo Bai was immersed in his thoughts and was in a daze, when the sound of the doorbell faintly came from outside the door.It was the old lady's son who had returned.

When a young man in his 20s entered the door, Huo Bai originally wanted to be more enthusiastic, go up to greet him, and introduce himself.After all, it may be the landlord who will live under the same roof in the future.But being stared at by the other party's sharp eyes, he swallowed the words again.

"Hello."

The young man didn't respond, but took a few glances at Huo Bai.He was tall, about the same height as Xiang Siqi, with a tough face, the type that would be popular with girls, but when he was not smiling, he looked aggressive, with an aura of not getting close to strangers.

He frowned and asked. "How can there be a child?"

Huo Bai's hand holding the baby stiffened.He thought that the intermediary had mentioned the matter of the baby, and the intermediary was serious, and logically said that such an important detail would not be missed.If so... there should be little hope.

"Feel sorry."

Huo Bai raised his face and smiled.Even if you can't make it, be polite.

"I thought I said it on the phone. If I can't take the child with me, I'll find another place, thank you."

"Thank you auntie."

He thanked the old lady again, and wanted to take the stuffed bear out of the baby's little hand and put it back.Unexpectedly, the baby refused to let go, and cried loudly while tugging at her tightly.

"Hey, don't cry."

Huo Bai felt distressed, a toy made him cry like this.He came out from home with only the one he was holding at the time.The baby is so reluctant to play without toys for many days.

"Daddy will buy you new..."

He stopped while talking, not wanting to lie to the baby.The future is uncertain, and even the guarantee of basic life is tight. Where can I have the money to buy new toys?

Huo Bai became cruel and pulled out the little bear regardless of the baby's obstruction.He wanted to cry too, but forced himself to hold back his tears.Crying won't solve anything, he has to live and feed the baby.

With the baby sobbing and crying intermittently, he gritted his teeth and turned to change his shoes.

"Xiao Zhuo..." The old lady called her son, as if trying to persuade him not to leave.

When he opened the door, an arm behind him caught him.Huo Bai's body trembled, the force from that arm reminded him of Xiang Siqi.Why can't I always forget that man?

The expression on the young man's face was a little embarrassed, but there was a hint of softened attitude.

"I didn't say I won't let you stay. It's so late, so stay for a meal. My mother's cooking is delicious."

At the dinner table, except for the old lady who kept adding vegetables to Huo Bai's bowl and telling him to eat more, the other two were silent.

Jiang Yizhuo was very depressed.He felt that he had been tricked by the intermediary, throwing all the pitiful "kittens and puppies" to him.Usually, he is very busy on the set, and often travels on business. He just wants to sleep well when he gets home, so he doesn't like babies who are easily noisy.

Originally, what he was talking about on the phone was only a boy who had no place to live, and he didn't know if he could get along with his mother, so he made an exception and asked the other party to come and have a look.Now it's all right, I never expected it to be a young father with a child.

"...Thank you, auntie. The dishes cooked by auntie are really delicious."

Huo Bai was not a compliment, but admiration from the bottom of his heart.Different from the craftsmanship of the chef at home, it is a home-cooked dish that does not pay attention to the presentation and appearance. It tastes very delicious when you are hungry.

He looked up carefully at the old lady's son.Even though he was left to eat, the young man still didn't smile, his expression was serious.Huo Bai's mood was complicated, and a sense of humiliation welled up in his heart.He likes it here and wants to be with the old lady, but he can't help himself, everything is decided by this young man.

At any rate, he was once the young master in the big yard, and now he looks at other people's faces for the sake of a place to stay.
