On the day Bai Xiaoruo and Xian Mingyu held their wedding, she had only just celebrated her 18th birthday a few days prior. Her husband was a full 8 years older than her.
In the eyes of outsi...
"Here we go again. All you can say about is divorce, is that it?"
"I have nothing to say to you!" She turned her face away, not wanting to see him.
Why is he keeping her trapped in the car and refusing to drive away? What is he trying to do?
"Aren't you angry because I didn't help you when Bai Xiaofu said those nasty things to you earlier?"
Since he already knew, why did he need her to say more?
Bai Xiaoruo remained silent, still furious as she recalled Bai Xiaofu's earlier words.
Does his refusal to help him mean that he also believes in his heart that everything Bai Xiaofu said is true, and that she is that kind of person?
"Did I say I wouldn't help you? Does standing up for yourself always mean verbally attacking me?"
"What do you mean?" Bai Xiaoruo looked at Xuan Mingyu in confusion.
"Don't worry, it won't be long before Bai Xiaofu pays the price for what she said tonight," he said, reaching out to pat Bai Xiaoruo's head. "No wonder you're called Bai Xiaoruo, you idiot and weak fool. I've said it before, no one can bully you anymore. I've never taken Bai Xiaofu or the Bai family seriously. Did you really think I let them off the hook last time? I guarantee you'll soon see how miserable those who bullied you will be!"
The Bai family's fortunes have long since declined, making them easy to deal with. Soon, he will make the Bai family disappear completely from L City.
“You… no matter what, the blood of the Bai family still flows in my veins… As long as I bear the surname Bai, I am still a member of the Bai family. No matter how they treat me, no matter how much I hate them… blood ties cannot be severed…” Bai Xiaoruo had once wondered why Xuan Mingyu married her, but now she no longer wanted to think about it…
"Please, just teach them a small lesson, don't ruin the Bai family completely."
After a few seconds of silence, Xian Mingyu gently rubbed Bai Xiaoruo's hair, which had been ruffled by the wind. "You, in the end, will still be defeated by being too kind... Don't worry, I won't really do anything to them."
He certainly wouldn't let her know what he was doing.
"That's more like it... So, what you just said... still stands?"
Which sentence?
"It's just... you said you'd take me to the food street to buy some food."
She was really hungry. The food she ate at the banquet in the afternoon and on the way home had long been digested. Being pregnant really makes you feel hungry more easily.
Even if she's full, the baby in her belly might not be.
"Calculate."
"I can buy whatever I want?"
"Anything is fine, but you can't buy too much spicy food, just a little bit."
"Then what are you waiting for? I'm starving."
Bai Xiaoruo turned her face to look at the scenery outside the car window. In fact... she had already forgiven him.
