Ye Xiu, having heard this much, found her answer. Back then, when she had just woken up, she saw Bai Da right away, and even the fact that he knew the details of their time spent together, wasn’t strange anymore.
Because Nan Jin couldn’t let the villagers know he hadn’t gone for training, naturally, he would have told Bai Da how he saved her. After Bai Da knew the details, he conveyed them to her.
At such a vulnerable time, when her heart was easily swayed, naturally she’d be moved, and Bai Da took the opportunity to say he’d go find medicine to treat her eyes.
And then he took the bracelet...
One thing led to another, it’s really, indescribable.
"I understand now, but there’s another thing I want to know, about when I gave birth that year. How did you happen to be there?"
Ye Xiu couldn’t just ask directly, do you know that Bai Da switched the two babies?
"At that time, Nan Xi had just been born, I had just glanced at Nan Xi, and as I was coming out to buy things, I saw Bai Da bringing you in. Only then did I realize, you had prematurely gone into labor, and I hurriedly paid the fees. By the time I returned, you had already been wheeled out, Bai Da really did love you - he was with you the whole time. The nurse mixed up the two babies, and without her realizing, I quickly switched them back.
However, after I spoke up, the nurse immediately apologized and pleaded with me not to disclose it, saying it hadn’t been easy for her. Thinking that you were unaware, I felt there was no need to mention it. Bai Da indeed never held the baby, he just stayed by your side."
Of course, if it had been him, he would have stayed by Ye Xiu’s side too, but he would definitely have held the baby – that was their daughter, after all. He had no idea what Bai Da was thinking.
"But you were frightening too, to have such a severe hemorrhage, you scared all of us."
That time, not just Bai Da, but he himself was so terrified that he felt like he’d lost his soul.
Without Ye Xiu, none of them knew what they would have done.
"I get it now, thank you, Nan Jin, oh, and you don’t need to tell Bai Da any of this.
What’s the name of that nurse?"
It’s truly pitiable, it turned out she took the fall for Bai Da; it was just a case of someone being too frightened to look at the baby and just pushing her away. Then in the end, it was Nan Jin who had the nurse switch them back.
Does that make Bai Da stupid, or her? Did he ever even look to see what Xingxing looked like? It’s truly something no one would be foolish enough to do.
Especially since, if you thought you switched the babies, your daughter is off living well. What right do you have to mistreat someone else’s daughter?
"Ah Xiu, did something happen between you and Bai Da?"
Although he knew he probably shouldn’t ask, at that moment, Nan Jin still posed the question.
If not, why would Ah Xiu be asking these things? Actually, he didn’t know how he was feeling right now.
He wanted to tell Ye Xiu that Bai Da had treated her well, but there was a mess of feelings inside him.
"Sort of, he thought Xingxing caused my difficult delivery, so he treated her poorly. And because of Nan Xi, he was cold to Xingxing, treating your daughter exceptionally well, as if she were a precious jewel, while my daughter was seen as nothing, left to do all the housework and wait on them.
I couldn’t face them anymore, so I chose to end it all.
Nan Jin, if you consider me a friend, then don’t ask and don’t tell anything.
I once thought that he was the one, so I stayed with him, but now it seems, it was wrong from the start."
Ye Xiu wasn’t without schemes; she said this deliberately, intending to keep Nan Jin from telling Bai Da these things, including about the nurse.
She wanted Bai Da to believe that Nan Xi was his daughter, to watch him continue making mistakes until she felt like telling him.
"The person you’ve taken great care of, the one you’re always concerned about, isn’t your daughter at all. Bai Da, from beginning to end, you’ve been a fool."
What fun would it be to let him know now? To make him repent?
