Chapter 6: You are Mister President?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Behind the man, someone had already stepped out and sternly held Xia Xingchen’s shoulders.
Everyone took in a cold breath and all the maids were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweat. Oh my god! This woman… did she know who she had slapped?
They looked at Mister President again. His flawless, handsome face darkened as though a thunderstorm was near. It made one tremble with fear.
“How dare you!” Leng Fei shouted as he walked over. His gaze harshly glossed past Xia Xingchen before it cautiously landed on Bai Yeqing. “Your excellency…”
Bai Yeqing raised his hand and motioned that it was alright. Yet his expression remained icy cold which made one unable to take a deep breath.
“Let go of me! So many people are bullying a woman! Are you considered a man?”
Xia Xingchen’s cold voice pierced through the air as she tried her best to struggle away. But the two men were burly and trained so how could she get away?
She looked towards the man. “Tell your men to let me go. I still have scores to settle with you.”
Did this woman get the situation right? She actually dared to talk to Mister President like that?!
Bai Yeqing glared at her. His gaze was so cold and sharp as though it could bore through her. Xia Xingchen’s heart shook, however, she did not show signs of fear for she did not want to lose her presence since she has yet to settle scores with him.
She took a look at this man again.
She did not know if it was her illusion, but she felt that… he was… a little familiar…
“Bring her in!” The man’s words cut off her thoughts.
After he threw those words with a voice so deep that it made Xia Xingchen shudder, he walked into the bungalow with a stiff look and heavy footsteps. In the next moment, Xia Xingchen was dragged into the house in a rough manner.
…
In the large study room, everyone proceeded out and left Xia Xingchen and Bai Yeqing in the room.
He had stuffed his hands in his pocket as he stood before the round bookshelf. He looked down at Xia Xingchen with a strong and oppressive aura, and it made her feel as though his aura had suppressed the whole room that one could not breathe properly.
She gulped her saliva and stared at the man. She did not make a single noise.
“Don’t you have scores to settle with me? Are you mute?” He broke the ice first.
The moment he spoke, Xia Xingchen could not help but think about the aggrievance she suffered over the past years because of him. Her nose turned sour as she walked forward and raised her hand up to slap him again. The slap earlier on was for the treatment she suffered for the past five years and now, this slap was for taking Xia Dabai away!
However…
Before her hand could land on his face, the man held her wrist. He was so strong that Xingchen felt as though his grip was going to break her wrist into pieces.
“Let go!” She struggled. But, in front of the man, her strength was like that of an ant. How could she struggle away?
Xia Xingchen was furious that she lowered her head before biting the man’s arm. She bit harshly and without mercy and not long later, blood oozed out from the man’s arm.
Bai Yeqing furrowed his brows and the gaze on her became colder. This woman was really testing her limits!
“Xia Xingchen, enough!” he warned with a deep voice.
“Enough?” She gave out a bitter laugh and had tears brimming in her eyes. “Mister, I should be the one saying those words. I will never hand Dabai over to you so I plead with you to stop as well and return my son!”
“That is impossible!” The three words had no room for discussion.
If it was not for that child and him playing the trick of never meeting her, Xia Xingchen would never be standing here in her whole life.
Xia Xingchen was so angry that she felt that she was going to explode. She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down as she spoke with a calm voice. “Who are you? A bandit? You strangely took away my son. Do you know this is against the law? And my father is the town mayor so you should know if you won’t return my son, there will be consequences.”
She really did not want to use her authority against others but there was no other method.
“Bai Yeqing.”
The man waited for her to finish speaking before moving his lips to say those three syllables.
“What did you say?”
“My name.”
“Bai… Ye… Qing?” Xia Xingchen swallowed these three very familiar words before looking at the man in front of her. His perfect and defined features became clearer in her eyes then…
She was stunned.
“Mister… President?”
Her whole body tensed up and her mind was blank for a long time that she felt like fainting.
Was she dreaming? How could Bai Yeqing be Xia Dabai’s dad who had just become the President a while ago! This was too unbelievable!
She stood rooted to the ground and looked at the deep teeth mark on his hand. As she pondered about his identity, she bit down on her lips and let go of the man’s hand.
She stepped back and kept a distance from him.
Bai Yeqing seemed very satisfied with her reaction and his tensed face softened. “You’ll stay here in the future. If you have any problems, feel free to ask the butler.”
“You can continue your work and nobody will stop you. But in view of Miss Xia’s safety, you have to keep your child’s identity a secret and don’t circulate the news around.”
It was an order.
Xia Xingchen recovered from the shock.
Circulate the news? Even if she told everyone that her child belonged to the President, no one would believe her.
“…I still have some questions for you.”
Bai Yeqing looked at her. “Ask.”
“Why did you choose me?” Xia Xingchen looked at his deep eyes. “Why did you choose me to bear you a child?”
“It’s simple. There are not many women who can bear a child for me but your blood type is suitable.”
It was so simple!
…
After Bai Yeqing threw her the bomb, he left with a group of people to work. Xia Xingchen sat on the sofa and tried her best to digest the fact that Xia Dabai’s father was the President.
Although she found it hard to believe, it was a good explanation why her father rose up the rank so smoothly and why hospitals dared not to help her abort her child.
…
In the camper van.
Leng Fei looked at the scar left on Mister President’s arm and was shocked. It seemed that Miss Xia had a fierce personality.
He took out the medicine and bandage from the first aid box at the side. Although it was a small wound, such a wound was ambiguous and was not in line with the President’s image in the public.
“How is Xia Xingchen doing in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?” Bai Yechen casually asked as he flipped some documents.
“I heard that her ability is not bad. Although she’s just a trainee, the minister liked her a lot. If possible, she would be asked to stay as a translation officer.”
Bai Yeqing gave a calm “hmm” and kept quiet. Leng Fei never opened his mouth either.
But it was unknown as to how Xia Xingchen would be allocated in the future.
