The night Chi Yuan and Qi Wang consummated their relationship, Qi Wang, as an illegitimate child, had just been acknowledged by the Qi family.
At that time, the Chi family was at its peak, an...
Chapter 169 Satisfactory Explanation
After the two sides were completely separated, Chi Yuan finally realized that the reason Chen Jinxuan came was because of Qi Wang.
He took Dai Fang away, presumably to get a satisfactory explanation.
Their trip today was not in vain, as they learned some useful information.
In the end, we have to ask the Qi family.
Chi Yuan thought that it would be best if he could reach an agreement with Mr. Qi, as it would be much more troublesome to fight with Madam Qi and the others.
He Yuanshan originally planned to send Chi Yuan directly home, but Mr. Bai called halfway and asked Bai Qinghe to go home quickly, so Chi Yuan suggested changing the route and sending Bai Qinghe first.
"That's right, I'll stop by your house."
It won’t be wrong to go and meet Mr. Bai.
Heyuan Mountain turned in direction and was not far from the Bai family mansion.
When they walked into the villa, both of them deliberately kept their distance. At the same time, Chi Yuan was thinking about what to say when they met later.
After all, Bai's investment has been going on for a while and there has been no progress, so it is difficult for her and Mr. Bai to explain.
But as soon as he entered the Bai family, he happened to meet Bai Qingcheng running down.
"An An! You're finally here, let's go upstairs!"
Bai Qingcheng pretended to pull people upstairs directly, but was stopped sternly by Old Man Bai.
He knocked heavily on the table: "Go back to your room and wait for me. I have some work matters that I want to discuss with Madam Qi Er Shao."
This was the first time that Mr. Bai addressed her by this identity.
It must be something very important.
"Dad, why are you so serious? You scared me."
Especially towards Chi Yuan...
Mr. Bai didn't even look at her, he just waved his hand and said, "Go up if I tell you to."
“…”
Bai Qingcheng didn't dare to refute anymore. She glanced at Chi Yuan and went upstairs.
Looking at Mr. Bai's attitude, Chi Yuan guessed that even if he didn't come today, he would find a time to ask him to come over.
Bai Qinghe sat down next to the old man.
"Sit down." Mr. Bai pointed to the sofa opposite him and asked, "How is your father doing recently?"
"He hasn't woken up yet, but his condition has improved a lot. I just hope he won't have any sequelae after he wakes up."
Perhaps Chi's business will be handed over to her little by little from now on, but she still hopes that her father can return to work again.
If we give her this burden, she will be afraid.
The servant brought a cup of hot tea, and Chi Yuan smelled the faint aroma of green tea.
"Uncle Bai, what do you want to talk to me about? I just wanted to stop by to see Qingcheng. Is she... okay?"
After the incident at the media company, Bai Qingcheng seemed to have been staying at home and did not go to work at Bai's.
The last time they met, Chi Yuan didn't notice anything wrong with her.
The Bai family dotes on Bai Qingcheng, so it's probably no big deal to support her for the rest of her life.
"It's okay. Since this is work, it's inevitable that there will be setbacks. It will be fine after a few more experiences."
Although they were just chatting casually, Mr. Bai's expression was not relaxed at all.
He took a sip of tea and said in a low voice, "Let's talk about your business. Putting aside the investment I made in your Chi Corporation, your father has fallen ill. What are you doing? You even let your mother interfere with your work?"
Chi Yuan was slightly surprised, and for a moment he was not sure what he was talking about.
"My mother is meddling in the work...what's wrong?"
Why do you care about this?
Before becoming a housewife, Wen Yurong's work ability was not inferior to her father's.
This was obviously not the answer that Mr. Bai wanted to hear.
"Are you planning to hand the Chi family over to the Wen family?" He simply said it bluntly, then sighed: "This is a good opportunity for you to gain a foothold in the Chi family. Don't you know how to seize it?"
Chi Yuan didn't understand his attitude.
"Uncle Bai, my mother and I have our own ideas, but we will never hand over the Chi family to the Wen family as you said. I must grab what is left to me no matter what."
To the Wen family? That Wen Feiyu? How is that possible?
Mr. Bai's tone softened slightly: "I thought you were ready to become Mr. Qi's wife."
"He is him, and I am me."
Chi Yuan's attitude was extremely firm.
"Uncle Bai, I am Qi Wang's wife, but before that, I was also a member of the Chi family and my father's daughter. Just because I married him doesn't mean that everything I have must depend on him and bear his name."
"My last name is Chi, not Qi."
Mr. Bai was so angry because he was worried that she would hand over the Chi Group to someone else.
She was a married woman, and she had once shamelessly followed Qi Ye...
Some stereotypes may be imprinted on her for the rest of her life.
"Then let me take a good look."
As he spoke, Mr. Bai shook his head, as if sighing.
"Your father has sacrificed so much for the Chi family, and now...ah."
After all, Chi Yuan seemed to understand Mr. Bai's thoughts.
After all, he hopes that Chi Group can develop stably.
"I understand what you mean. I will think carefully about what you said to me today when I get back."
That was all Mr. Bai wanted to say, and then he asked Chi Yuan to go upstairs.
"If you're free, you can come and spend more time with Qingcheng. She..." Old Master Bai hesitated, looking as if he didn't know how to describe it. "She's been a little strange lately. Come over and take a look and tell me, is she... in a relationship?"
Chi Yuan subconsciously glanced at Bai Qinghe and saw that he just frowned and didn't show any more.
He probably doesn't know about Chi Yuan and He Yuanshan.
"I have to ask her about this. I haven't seen her get particularly close to any boy."
After Bai Qingcheng returned home, she did not tell anyone what happened at the winery.
"Then uncle, I'll go up first."
Chi Yuan turned around and looked away, then heaved a sigh of relief.
Bai Qingcheng was typing on the keyboard in the bedroom, looking like she was working.
She went over and patted her shoulders: "Come, tell me honestly, do you like Heyuan Mountain?"
Bai Qingcheng immediately minimized the document, her eyes evading: "Why do you ask me this as soon as you come in... I don't know whether I like it or not. You can see our situation clearly."
If you don’t give a direct answer, then there’s no hope for the time being.
"Your dad asked me to ask you if you are in love. Maybe you like him?"
Bai Qingcheng had her back to her, and Chi Yuan didn't notice the momentary desolation in her eyes.
"I think he has a lot going on. It doesn't matter whether I like him or not. Anyway, I don't want to have a future with him."
She turned around and changed the subject: "Yuanyuan, I want to start my own media. You will support me, right?"
"If you want to do it, I will always support you."
Bai Qingcheng closed the computer and the two of them sat down beside the bed.
"Actually, ever since the accident, my father has been stricter with me, so it's not that easy for me to see you."
Everyone was in a very ugly mood last time. How could Mr. Bai not have a prejudice against his daughter's best friend?
After all... Bai Qingcheng was also trying to help her.
