Things were settled according to Huo Yanqing's plan. Jian Xi and Huo Jibai would wait for Shuxin to give birth and have a one-month-old celebration before leaving. However, they hid this from Yao Huiqin in advance so that she wouldn't be unhappy.
Huo Yanqing didn't hide it from Shuxin, but the reason was that Huo Jibai needed to learn and gain experience.
Because Huo Jibai was going to leave soon, Huo Yanqing told Huo Jibai not to go to the company recently and to spend more time with his friends and family.
At first, Huo Jibai was almost nowhere to be seen every day. Gradually, all the friends that should be gathering had gathered and he started to idle at home. However, Shuxin found a problem. She felt that Huo Jibai seemed to be avoiding her.
When she came to Yao Huiqin's place, Huo Jibai would either go upstairs or go out. In the past, they used to watch television together and would occasionally argue. Why was it that when he saw her now, he was like a mouse that saw a cat?
However, he didn't seem to fear her like he did Huo Yanqing. Shuxin was puzzled and planned to find an opportunity to ask him.
On this day, Shuxin had just entered Yao Huiqin's villa when Huo Jibai threw away the remote control in his hand and got up from the sofa. He said to Jian Xi, "Mom, I'm going to the practice field at the back of the mountain to play basketball."
"Okay." Jian Xi responded. She naturally noticed that something was wrong with Huo Jibai. She felt that the reason why Huo Jibai was avoiding Shuxin was that he felt awkward when he saw her.
It was already awkward enough that his classmate had become his aunt. Now that she had become his sister, it was indeed difficult to face her. Not to mention him, Jian Xi also felt that her heart was twisted every time she saw Shuxin.
Her daughter had become her sister-in-law. She couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart.
Shuxin greeted Jian Xi and went to the dining room for breakfast. After breakfast, they went out for a walk as usual.
However, today's walk location was changed from the garden to the practice field.
Although it was already autumn, the sun was still very scorching during the day.
Shuxin came to the practice court and stood beside the track. She supported her waist with one hand and covered her forehead with the other to block the dazzling sunlight. She looked across the track and saw Huo Jibai practicing alone on the basketball court.
He must have felt her gaze and looked in her direction, but he quickly retracted his gaze and continued to dribble the ball as if he did not see her.
Shuxin knitted her beautiful brows and walked towards the basketball court with her hands on her waist. When she was about to reach the basketball court, Shuxin saw Huo Jibai suddenly take the ball and walk towards the other side of the basketball court. It was obvious that he wanted to leave.
"Huo Jibai, stop right there!" Shuxin shouted.
Huo Jibai acted as if he didn't hear anything. Instead, his footsteps quickened.
Shuxin knew that she would definitely not be able to catch up with Huo Jibai. She had an idea. She hugged her stomach with both hands and bent down slightly as she shouted, "Huo Jibai, don't go. My stomach hurts."
Sure enough, the moment she said that, the tall figure that was walking quickly immediately stopped. Then, he turned around and ran towards her.
Shuxin lowered her head and held back her laughter. He was so gullible.
A pair of white sneakers appeared in her line of sight. In the next second, a worried voice floated down from above. "What's wrong? Why does your stomach hurt? Are you going to give birth? Shall I take you to the hospital? "
Shuxin looked up slightly and grabbed Huo Jibai's wrist. He had just played basketball and his body seemed to be emitting heat. There was a thin layer of sweat on his wrist and it felt moist and warm in her hand.
Shuxin smiled slyly. "Why have you been avoiding me recently?"
Huo Jibai knew that he had been deceived, so he struggled to free his hand. She used some strength, but she couldn't break free. He also didn't dare to use force to shake her hand. She was pregnant, so he was afraid of hurting her. He could only say with a cold face, "Why should I avoid you?"
