Daughter on the Brink of Death, Scumbag CEO Sets Off Fireworks for His First Love

The night before her daughter's death, Bai Shuyu was still desperately calling Gu Hongrui's phone, but all she got was "The number you dialed is unreachable."

Her daughter eve...

Chapter 26 Jiaqi, are you here to pick me up?

The rankings appeared one by one. Bai Shuyu, who was sitting in her seat, looked at the winners standing up one by one. For some reason, she became nervous in her heart.

"We will announce the top three next."

The noise in the hall suddenly became tense. Bai Shuyu stared at the speaker on the stage, waiting with bated breath.

"Third place, Zhang Xiaomei!"

Zhang Xiaomei, who was sitting next to Bai Shuyu, stood up suddenly from her chair. She looked at Bai Shuyu in surprise and was so excited that she didn't know what to say.

"Still standing there like an idiot?"

Bai Shuyu reached out and patted her arm: "Go up to the stage to receive the award."

Zhang Xiaomei quickly walked up the stairs, and Bai Shuyu looked more and more nervous.

"Second place, Bai Shuyu!"

When the light shone on Bai Shuyu, she was still dazed.

She stood up from her chair and quickly went on stage to receive her award.

Zhang Xiaomei was right next to her. She moved closer to Bai Shuyu and said with a smile, "Shuyu, we both won awards. Look, that woman is still sitting in the audience!"

Zhang Xiaomei's smiling voice came. Bai Shuyu glanced at the woman sitting in the audience. Her eyes fell on Zhang Xiaomei and she couldn't help but laugh: "Don't say anything."

She coughed, her eyes filled with concern: "Maybe she is the first one?"

"Isn't it possible?"

Zhang Xiaomei had just finished saying this when the host on stage said, "First place, Qin Luoluo!"

The woman in red stood up from her chair, her eyes swept over the people around her, she walked up to the stage with a swaying figure, and received the trophy from the host.

"Shuyu, is she really that strong?"

When Zhang Xiaomei's voice came, Bai Shuyu shook her head, but she had a guess in her heart.

Qin Luoluo?

She had heard of this surname before. A thought flashed through Bai Shuyu's eyes, and she didn't say anything else.

"I didn't expect to see you again."

Bai Shuyu raised her eyes and met Qin Luoluo's gaze, then heard her say, "Miss Bai, you should know me, right?"

Qin Luoluo's smiling eyes fell on her. Bai Shuyu glanced at Qin Luoluo but didn't say anything else.

"Our top three designers are all able to enter the Ruilai design team for training. Congratulations."

The meeting on site gradually dispersed and Qin Luoluo left quickly.

Bai Shuyu walked off the stage holding the second-place trophy, but Zhang Xiaomei, who had chased after her, called out, "Shuyu, wait a minute."

Bai Shuyu paused, and Zhang Xiaomei's eyes fell on her: "Take a look at her design drawings."

Zhang Xiaomei's eyes fell on the drawing with disdain, and she couldn't help but point at it a few times. Bai Shuyu also looked at her with a puzzled look.

"This design draft is completely inferior to yours. I don't know what these people are thinking."

She curled her lips and looked at Bai Shuyu: "There shouldn't be any inside story here, right?"

When Bai Shuyu heard Zhang Xiaomei's voice, she looked up and glanced at Zhang Xiaomei: "Don't talk nonsense, be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall."

"Things have come to an end, so don't dwell on it."

Zhang Xiaomei's gaze fell on Bai Shuyu. She stuck out her tongue and said no more.

Bai Shuyu glanced at Zhang Xiaomei and said, "I'll be leaving first. See you on the day you start work."

Zhang Xiaomei nodded, and Bai Shuyu walked towards the bathroom of the venue, but she didn't expect to hear Qin Luoluo's voice.

"For the first place in Ruilai this time, please thank the Huo family on my behalf. If it weren't for their help, I really wouldn't have been able to get it."

There was a hint of concern in her voice.

Bai Shuyu paused, a look of concern flashing across her eyes.

"Please convey Mr. Huo's request for help."

The footsteps were gradually coming towards her, and Bai Shuyu subconsciously hid behind the cover.

The man's back quickly left, and Bai Shuyu couldn't help but pat her chest.

Only then did I feel a little relieved.

Qin Luoluo's figure had also disappeared, and Bai Shuyu walked out of the bathroom with a look of concern on her face.

She always felt that this matter might not be that simple.

Isn’t the president of Huo’s Huo Jiaqi?

Bai Shuyu was keeping something in mind, and even when she walked out of the venue, she didn't see Huo Jiaqi's parked car.

"Shuyu."

Huo Jiaqi blocked her path, his eyes fixed on Bai Shuyu, and he asked with amusement, "What's wrong with you?"

He stared at Bai Shuyu with concern: "I think you're almost lost in where to go."

"Is Riley's match over?"

When Bai Shuyu heard this, she finally looked up at Huo Jiaqi: "Do you know Ruilai?"

She looked at Huo Jiaqi suspiciously, and Huo Jiaqi replied, "The Huo Group is a sponsor of Ruilai."

Bai Shuyu's gaze fell on him, and the man's words emerged in her mind again.

She pursed her lips and looked at Huo Jiaqi with a scrutinizing look in her eyes.

Huo Jiaqi felt a numbness in her heart when Bai Shuyu looked at her: "What's wrong?"

His puzzled gaze fell on her. Bai Shuyu thought for a moment, then finally shook her head: "Nothing."

There were some things she couldn't say to Huo Jiaqi. She curled her lips and said, "Rui Lai won second place in the competition. She can go to work there then."

Bai Shuyu smiled and said, "Being able to redesign it is a good thing for me."

Huo Jiaqi's eyes fell on Bai Shuyu: "The Swallow Return you designed is very good."

Bai Shuyu raised her eyebrows: "Have you seen my design?"

Huo Jiaqi nodded and responded, "I saw it. It's really good."

"If I'm guessing correctly, you designed it for the stars."

Bai Shuyu was stunned. She looked over at Huo Jiaqi and heard him say, "Although your design concept is about the return of swallows in spring, it is more about caring about the stars."

Huo Jiaqi's serious expression fell on Bai Shuyu. He took a deep breath and said, "Shuyu, you still can't let her go, right?"

Bai Shuyu curled her lips and said, "Jiaqi, it seems that only you can understand the meaning of Yan Gui."

"Jiaqi?"

A woman's voice came from not far away. Before Huo Jiaqi could even look, she was hugged by the woman.

Bai Shuyu took a few steps back. Her eyes fell on Qin Luoluo and Huo Jiaqi. Her face was wooden and she didn't know how to describe the feelings in her heart.

"Jiaqi, are you here to pick me up?"

Qin Luoluo's eyes, filled with concern, fell on Huo Jiaqi. She stared at him with a smile, but Huo Jiaqi reached out and pulled her away: "Stand still."
