After breakfast, Shen Jiangxu called out to her.
Bai Youxi followed, somewhat confused, but saw that Shen Jiangxu merely led her to the front door and asked her to register her fingerprint on the biometric lock.
The process was quick, and it was successfully completed in a moment.
Niannian, who was following along, lightly shook her index finger, held up her own small hand high, and gave a thumbs-up. “Xiao Bai, I have a thumb too~”
Bai Youxi looked down, couldn’t help but press her thumb onto the small hand, smiled, and nodded. “Mm, we are the same.”
Niannian instantly became happier and reached out to pull Shen Jiangxu. “Mama has one too, we are all the same.”
Shen Jiangxu gently stroked Niannian’s small head with her other hand and looked up at Bai Youxi. “Save my number.”
Bai Youxi froze for a moment, then quickly responded, “Oh, okay.”
She hurriedly patted her pockets, but after feeling around, she didn’t find her phone. She looked down at Niannian. “Let’s go inside first.”
Niannian nodded, holding one hand of each person. Led by Bai Youxi, they lined up and walked back to the living room.
The phone was on the sofa, where Bai Youxi had placed it when she went to tie Niannian’s hair, and its location hadn’t changed.
Bai Youxi spotted it immediately, quickly bent down to pick it up, and brought it close to Shen Jiangxu, looking afraid that Shen Jiangxu would change her mind.
The lit screen was still on the record of her refunding Song Jian’s transfer, with Song Jian’s message above it: [Take it and spend it. I don’t have any more if it’s not enough].
Perhaps she had swiped up a little before the screen turned off, as there was a small circle indicating a new message in the lower right corner, which hadn’t managed to push the transfer record off the screen.
Bai Youxi had forgotten that she hadn’t exited the application. Seeing the record displayed right in front of Shen Jiangxu made her a little embarrassed. She quickly returned to the desktop and opened the phone app.
Although she acted quickly, she still felt that Shen Jiangxu had seen everything. The cold, grey eyes glanced at her before Shen Jiangxu started to recite a string of numbers.
After Bai Youxi finished recording, Shen Jiangxu said, “Call me.”
Bai Youxi obediently complied. Hearing the dialing tone, Shen Jiangxu picked up the vibrating phone from the coffee table.
Only then did Bai Youxi notice that Shen Jiangxu’s phone was also nearby; she had been too anxious to look for hers and hadn’t seen it earlier.
Shen Jiangxu answered the call and immediately hung up.
In the slightly reflective screen, Bai Youxi saw that the caller ID was not her number but was already saved with a note.
…Bai.
Simple, direct, just one word.
It must be that Shen Jiangxu remembered it when Bai Youxi went to get her SIM card replaced yesterday.
It turned out that Shen Jiangxu had already saved her number when she was replacing her card.
As for her, after replacing the card, she was overwhelmed looking at the countless unread messages and simply set it aside, not thinking about anything.
The ended call became a call record at the top of the page. Bai Youxi collected herself and went to save it as a contact.
She had just typed out the three characters “Shen Jiangxu” and hadn’t saved yet when Shen Jiangxu’s voice came from in front of her.
“So distant?”
It was still a low voice, but the tail end lifted slightly, like a shallow complaint.
Bai Youxi was stunned. She deleted all three characters, hesitated for a moment, and then typed the character “Wife.” Before saving, she looked up at Shen Jiangxu.
She looked a little cautious, seeming guilty yet full of anticipation.
There was no expression on the beautiful face, which was cool and aloof, but in her line of sight, the slightly upturned corner of Shen Jiangxu’s eye lifted. Shen Jiangxu turned and walked with Niannian to the sofa to sit down. “Add me on WeChat too.”
A huge smile instantly spread across Bai Youxi’s lips. She quickly tapped to save and pin the contact, copied the number to WeChat to add as a friend, and likewise typed “Wife” as the note on WeChat.
Niannian saw her sudden happiness and quickly spoke up, “I want to add too.”
Bai Youxi looked over, her smile undiminished. “Add!”
“Wait for me.” Niannian’s big eyes immediately curved into a smile. She jumped off the sofa and ran towards her room.
Niannian didn’t have a phone, but she had a smart watch phone, which she had placed by her bedside.
Bai Youxi smiled sweetly as she watched Niannian run off. Looking down, Shen Jiangxu had already accepted her request and sent her an address.
It looked like the address of this place.
Sure enough, Shen Jiangxu looked up at her. “This is the home address. If you want to buy anything, you can have it delivered directly here.”
Bai Youxi nodded.
Shen Jiangxu then asked, “Do you have a bank card in your name?”
Bai Youxi suddenly remembered that her initial distress was due to not having her own bank card. She shook her head.
Shen Jiangxu said nothing, got up, and went back to her room. A moment later, she returned and handed her a black card. “This one was processed but hasn’t been used. You use it first.”
Bai Youxi was completely stunned. That was a black card! The deposit inside wouldn’t be less than 2 million yuan. Was this something that could be casually given to her to use, like the common white cabbage in a market?
Although she had seen the luxurious mansion and the sports cars, watching Shen Jiangxu hand her a black card without even lifting her eyes made her feel unreal.
She didn’t dare to take it at all and quickly waved her hands. “No, no need, I have money.”
Shen Jiangxu’s outstretched hand did not retract. “This is part of our agreement. You signed it.”
Indeed, their marriage agreement contained a clause that Shen Jiangxu would cover all expenses incurred by Bai Youxi during the agreement period.
This included all her spending.
Bai Youxi knew this, but her expenses truly weren’t that large.
Shen Jiangxu simply said, “Do you want me to breach the contract?”
Then she lowered her voice extremely, “My wife.”
Bai Youxi’s face instantly turned red. She wanted to say something but couldn’t. After struggling for a while, she ultimately took the card from Shen Jiangxu’s hand.
She felt like she had suddenly ripened, with a plume of steam floating above her head. She didn’t even notice Niannian coming over and shaking her hand.
This was just too much…
Bai Youxi checked her phone from time to time, smiling foolishly.
Niannian, sitting next to her and playing with toys, couldn’t stand it anymore. She raised her adorable, still chubby little face and asked with great confusion, “What is Xiao Bai looking at?”
Bai Youxi chuckled and shook her head, then picked up a nearby toy to play with Niannian.
Niannian was immediately teased into a fit of giggles, but after a burst of laughter, she continued the topic. “I want to buy something for Xiao Bai too!”
Bai Youxi didn’t understand. “Buy what?”
Niannian avoided the toy in her hand and pounced into her arms, her laughter clear and bright. “A phone! I want to buy lots and lots of phones for Xiao Bai, so Xiao Bai can be very happy!”
In other words, Niannian thought she kept smiling at her phone because she liked phones?
Bai Youxi couldn’t help but laugh. “Alright, I’ll wait for Niannian to earn money and buy them for me.”
Niannian promised confidently, “Definitely!”
After saying that, she flopped down, wiggling her short little legs in Bai Youxi’s arms.
Bai Youxi understood, placed her hands under Niannian, and lifted her up, gently swaying, like a small airplane soaring through the clouds.
Niannian had played this game with her several times, but this time, instead of taking off, she began to do the breaststroke.
It was inexplicably cute.
But of course, Bai Youxi wasn’t smiling foolishly at her phone because she liked phones; it was because of Shen Jiangxu.
It was because of the “Wife” pinned at the top of her WeChat contacts.
It was because of the message sent to her by the person with the note “Wife.”
It was a video.
A video she had looped countless times on her tablet.
It was because of a sigh that Shen Jiangxu accidentally overheard when she was focused on looping the video, because of her subconscious answer when Shen Jiangxu asked, and because of a clearer video that Shen Jiangxu had found from who knows where.
