Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 617 - 610: Completely Under Her Thumb

After resigning, Bai Yiran’s days revolved around taking care of the child and waiting for Leng Yichen to come home. The area around the house was under tight security by Leng Yichen’s people, ensuring she wouldn’t be in danger as long as she stayed in.

However, Bai Yiran wasn’t always confined to the house. If she wanted to go out for a bit of fresh air, she had to be accompanied by Leng Yichen.

At first, it wasn’t too bad. Leng Yichen, worried that Bai Yiran might feel stifled at home, would accompany her for strolls whenever he had the time.

Lately, Leng Yichen had suddenly become very busy, and there were times when Bai Yiran wouldn’t see him for several days.

Whenever she called him, he was either in meetings or socializing, and occasionally, it would be inconvenient for him to talk.

Bai Yiran understood that it was a critical period; the matters of Huamei International required his attention, those two troublesome shareholders needed to be dealt with, and he also had to assist the police in capturing Wu Chengzu. All these responsibilities left Leng Yichen overwhelmed. There was little she could do to help him, so she tried her best not to add to his burdens. On the days he wasn’t home, she stayed put; only without her as a worry, could Leng Yichen freely handle matters.

In the blink of an eye, it was already early March. The spring chill was still in the air; the weather hadn’t warmed much despite spring’s arrival.

Since Lou Jing had her baby, she handed over the coffee shop entirely to the warm-hearted man to manage. The events during her childbirth were still vivid in her mind. Wang Chenyang’s heartless actions almost led to her and her baby’s doom. That period coincided with Bai Yiran’s childbirth, leaving her unable to tend to him. If not for the warm-hearted man’s careful support, Lou Jing couldn’t imagine how she would have gotten through it.

Her heart wasn’t made of stone; with the warm-hearted man’s kindness, even the coldest heart would be warmed.

Moreover, after taking care of the baby for a while, she realized that without someone to help, it was nearly impossible for a woman alone to manage.

The warm-hearted man promised to treat her child as his own and take care of them for life.

Lou Jing wouldn’t fully believe such a promise, but seeing the man was good, she didn’t express rejection.

Now that the child was growing and the coffee shop didn’t require her attention, she would often visit Bai Yiran with her extra time.

It was fortunate to have Lou Jing around, making Bai Yiran’s days less dull.

Her child, named Lou Xuan, was born on the same day as Xiao Xi, just a few hours older.

Although the two similarly aged children gathered together, they never fought. Xiao Xi, often bossy, frequently bullied Lou Xuan, and when displeased, would directly strike him.

Yet, Lou Xuan would always yield to her. Even when hurt, he’d just hold back tears and purse his lips but never retaliate.

For this reason, Lou Jing and Sister Liu would joke about the two children perhaps becoming a couple in the future, with Lou Xuan completely dominated by Xiao Xi.

That day, the two children were playing on the floor when Xiao Xi, feeling annoyed, grabbed Lou Xuan’s hand and bit down.

The adults quickly intervened to separate the children.

Lou Xuan, even after being bitten, didn’t cry and instead giggled.

Lou Jing, feeling a bit sorry, joked, "I tell you, Bai Yiran, my little Xuan is really eaten up by your little Xi! Silly boy, still laughing after being bitten!"

Bai Yiran, a bit embarrassed, hastily reprimanded Xiao Xi softly, saying that wasn’t right. But it seemed little Xiao Xi didn’t heed Bai Yiran’s words at all, as her eyes wandered towards the door.

Just then, Bai Yiran heard the sound of someone inputting the door code, followed by the opening and closing of the door.

She thought, this must be Leng Yichen returning from a nearly week-long business trip.
