I Am That Little Fox [Quick Transmigration] Chapter 162: The Child Of The Film Emperor’s House (32)
After dinner, she took a walk in the garden and watched an episode of TV series. Finally, Bai Xiaoxi chose to go upstairs to study.
She was holding a book and was about to sit down when she caught sight of the single sofa where Bai Yizhou usually sat. She hesitated for a moment, not knowing what she was thinking for a moment, and slowly walked over and sat down.
The sofa was a little too big for her, so she took off her shoes, tucked her feet in, and curled up in it.
The sofa was filled with the scent of her master, a very light and cold cedar scent. When curled up on it, it felt like sitting in her master’s arms, making people feel particularly safe.
Bai Xiaoxi’s heart slowly calmed down, and she moved again, found the most comfortable position, and began to read.
Just after ten o’clock, a black car drove into the yard. Bai Yizhou got out of the car, looked up, and saw that the lights in the room on the second floor were dim.
Aunt Liu came to the entrance to greet him and asked, “Would Mr. Bai like to have a midnight snack?”
“No need.” Bai Yizhou changed his shoes and glanced across the living room.
Aunt Liu said, “Xiaoxi is upstairs. She went upstairs at around eight o’clock. I saw that she didn’t eat much for dinner. I was just thinking about making some midnight snacks for her.”
Bai Yizhou paused: “Dinner doesn’t suit her taste?”
Aunt Liu said hurriedly, “It was made according to the menu Xiaoxi told me. I think it’s because the weather has been hot recently, which has affected her appetite. It may also be related to eating alone.”
Bai Yizhou nodded, changed his shoes and went upstairs .
Frogs were croaking happily in some corner of the garden. Bai Xiaoxi yawned and turned over a book, wanting to check what time it was, when she suddenly heard footsteps coming from the corridor.
She listened carefully, her face showing joy, she closed the book, jumped off the sofa and ran out the door.
“Master!”
Bai Yizhou just walked outside the study and she threw herself into his arms.
Bai Xiaoxi raised her head, her eyes sparkling, “Master, you’re back!”
“Yeah.” Bai Yizhou held her shoulders, “What are you doing?”
“Reading. I read more than fifty pages last night,” She said, taking credit for it.
“Good.”
Bai Xiaoxi smiled and sniffed his body, “Master, have you been drinking? ”
Bai Yizhou said: “I had a drink.”
“Did the driver take you back? You can’t drive after drinking.”
Bai Yizhou nodded, and when he lowered his eyes he saw her feet. She was not wearing slippers, and her feet were stepping on the dark floor. Her fair and delicate ankles seemed like they could be held in one hand.
Bai Xiaoxi lowered her head along the line of sight and saw her soft feet, which was obviously a very common thing, but she felt uncomfortable for no reason, and her toes curled up helplessly.
Only then did she realize that she was still in her Master’s arms. She quickly stepped back, ran back to the study, put on her slippers, and then said, “Master, go back to your room and change your clothes. I’ll read a few more pages of the book.”
That being said, when Bai Yizhou finished washing up and came to study, she had already fallen asleep.
The book was spread out on one side, and the person was trapped on his sofa, her eyes closed tightly, her long eyelashes hanging down covering her skin like a small fan.
Bai Yizhou stood beside the sofa, watched quietly for a while, then leaned over, put one hand around her back, supported her knees with the other hand, and picked her up.
Wrapped in a familiar breath, Bai Xiaoxi suddenly soared into the air. She did not wake up, but only muttering in a half-awake and half-asleep state: “Master…”
Bai Yizhou carried her to the opposite room, knelt on one knee on the bed sheet, and gently put her down.
A few strands of hair were resting on her eyelids. Bai Yizhou reached out to push them away, but when he was about to stand up, he found that his collar was unconsciously grasped by her.
