On his way downstairs, Sheng Yeting happened to see it passing by the door that Bao was lying on bed peacefully asleep, and Xia Xingcheng was by his side, with tears in her eyes and tear stains on her cheeks.

She had just cried.

Seeing Xia Xingcheng so fragile made Sheng Yeting’s heart shiver somehow. He felt upset inexplicably.

Walking gently to the door, Sheng Yeting reached out to push the door open instinctively but stopped at the last minute.

‘That woman always pretends to be strong. Presumably, she wouldn’t want anyone to see her like this at this point.’

Thinking of this, Sheng Yeting turned around and quietly walked away.

Even he hadn't noticed that he cared about Xia Xingcheng proactively.

Xia Xingcheng did not know that Sheng Yeting was here. She let herself cry till her tears dried up. Finally, she felt better.

She was so depressed that she felt a lot better after crying it out.

She tucked Bao in and gently kissed him on his forehead, then she left the room.

Walking to the door, she could not help but look back. Seeing Bao was soundly asleep, her heart fell back in her chest finally.

She would not let those who hurt Bao get away with it. She swore to get to the bottom of this.

After a while, when Sheng Yeting was just walking out of the bath in his room, his assistant called.

Picking up the phone, Sheng Yeting's expression became cold for an instant. His tone was strict. "What's the matter? Speak."

"Sir. The security camera footage you asked has been sent to you by e-mail."

The assistant answered. Even at the other end of the phone, she could detect the coldness from Sheng Yeting. So after Sheng Yeting ordered, she went to check it without one-minute delay.

"Good." Sheng Yeting said and hung up.

Dressed only in his pajamas, Sheng Yeting went straight to the study to open his computer and clicked on the video sent by his assistant.

In the video, it was the time after school, Bao’s small figure appeared thinner. When Bao was standing on the landing of the stairs and looking for someone. It seemed like he was waiting for his mother to pick him up.

Suddenly a boy came over. While Bao was not paying attention, the boy pushed Bao downstairs directly.

Seeing this, Sheng Yeting squinted threateningly. As he was watching the video, he noticed the boy's mother was nearby.

Things were clear now. Obviously, the boy was put up by his mother to push Bao downstairs.

Even though he knew what was on the video had already happened, he couldn't help but flinch a little when he saw Bao fell downstairs.

Even falling from such a high place, Bao did not cry out for pain. He was pretending to be strong just like his mother.

Suddenly, the image of Xia Xingcheng crying in her room appeared in Sheng Yeting’s mind. The feeling of sorrow hit him again. He frowned and took out his phone to give an order directly: "Now the evidence is in our hands. Go tell the headmaster to resolve this properly. If he can't, he will be fired!"

His assistant quickly took the order and hung up the phone.

But the angry fire of his was still burning. And he began to make a plan in his mind.

At the same time, Xia Xingcheng had been so tired from the day, as she just got out of the shower, Gu Xingxi's call came in.

Xia Xingcheng just remembered that Gu Yaoxi was still in surgery. She felt guilty and quickly picked up the phone: "Gu Xingxi, how is your sister's surgery? I had a family emergency today."

Gu Xingxi could not hide his excitement: "Her surgery was a success! She made it!"

"Really? It is great!”

Hearing the good news, Xia Xingcheng was also excited. She knew that girl would have good karma.

"And how is Yaoxi now?" Xia Xingcheng asked quickly. She decided to visit her  next  morning.

"My sister is now in the intensive care unit, and the doctor said she was ok. She just needed recovery." Gu Xingxi said with his voice choked up: "My sister’s surgery, it is all thanks to you. I do not know how to repay you. I'm so grateful to you. You saved her life. "

Gu Xingxi was choking up. His gratitude to Xia Xingcheng could not be put into words.

He had owed so much to Xia Xingcheng.

Xia Xingcheng understood Gu Xingxi's feeling, she gently consoled him: "Well, it's okay now. It's my pleasure to be able to help Yaoxi become healthy and happy again. Stop crying and go be with Yaoxi now. After Yaoxi gets better, you should get back to your work. The show，“Love Through Time 2”, is really important to your future career.

Gu Xingxi nodded and agreed quickly. Thinking of the show he would be in, he quickly put his emotions away.

"I understand. I will never let you down." Gu Xingxi promised her.

Xia Xingcheng nodded, hung up the phone and showed a gratified smile.

Luckily, that cute little girl, Yaoxi, was okay now, so Gu Xingxi could focus on his career.

At this time, Xia Xingcheng’s stomach growled suddenly and inappropriately. Feeling slightly embarrassed, Xia Xingcheng let out a sigh.

It was almost midnight, and she had been so busy all day. She just remembered that she had not eaten anything yet. No wonder she was hungry.

Chen Ma had gone to bed already. Xia Xingcheng did not want to trouble her. So she decided to go downstairs to the kitchen and find something to eat.

After rummaging the fridge, besides water and soft drinks, there were only some raw ingredients.

Xia Xingcheng had no choice but to take those ingredients out to cook up something to eat. Since they came here, it seemed she hadn’t cooked in a long time.

Fortunately, she still remembered how to cook. She washed the ingredients clean skillfully, wondering if she should ask Sheng Yeting to eat with her if he hadn’t gone to bed yet.

Otherwise, that guy might only drink water when he felt hungry.

Thinking of that, Xia Xingcheng could not help but feel funny. Sheng Yeting seemed omnipotent, but in fact, he didn’t know much about taking care of himself.

When Sheng Yeting went downstairs for a drink of water, he saw Xia Xingcheng in the kitchen working with an apron on her.

He paused a little. He did not know why, but somehow he had a strange yet wonderful feeling.

He had been used to being alone for so many years, but recently there had been a woman in the house. He thought he would be annoyed, would want to escape.

But now, all he could feel was a strangely warm feeling in his heart.
