After she finished speaking, she left with Bai Shaoheng. How could she let Shaoheng stay here alone? It wasn't that she was afraid her father would make things difficult for him; she was just a little worried.
After all, it seems like Dad doesn't really like spending time with Shaoheng.
Wei Zhu didn't stop them. After they left, he pulled Bai Qingnian back to his bedroom.
He still remembered what he wanted to say years ago.
"Niannian, is there something you wanted to tell your father?" Wei Zhu pulled Bai Qingnian to sit in front of the French window, her voice filled with worry.
"dad……"
Upon hearing this, Bai Qingnian's eyes instantly reddened, and she threw herself into Wei Zhu's arms and cried.
"Good girl, don't cry, don't cry, Daddy's here..." Wei Zhu hurriedly wiped away his tears, feeling heartbroken.
It took Bai Qingnian a while to calm herself down. She wiped away her tears and said haltingly, "Father, can we break off the engagement with the Ming family...?"
Wei Zhu was puzzled and asked, "Don't you also have feelings for Xiao Yin? Why do you suddenly want to break off the engagement?"
Bai Qingnian shook her head, tears welling up again: "But I..."
Seeing his appearance, Wei Zhu felt uneasy.
Could it be that he... year after year
"Niannian, were you bullied?"
Bai Qingnian's eyes reddened even more as she recalled Long Qianling's crazed appearance, and she responded with a muffled sound.
"Who?! Who bullied you?!" Wei Zhu's voice rose involuntarily, his face full of anger and worry.
Bai Qingnian lowered her head, clutching Wei Zhu's clothes tightly, and stammered, "Dad, I don't want to say..."
Wei Zhu frowned, and anger suddenly flared up in his heart. He cupped Bai Qingnian's little face in his hands and said earnestly, "Niannian, tell Daddy that Daddy will protect you."
Bai Qingnian's eyes darted away. He knew his father was overly concerned about him, but if he found out that Long Qianling had bullied him, he would definitely go to Long Qianling to demand justice, given his personality.
But Long Qianling was not someone they could afford to offend. He didn't want to cause trouble for the Bai family, so he could only bite his lip and whisper, "Dad, I'm really fine, don't ask anymore."
Looking at Bai Qingnian's stubborn expression, Wei Zhu felt helpless. He knew his son's temperament, and since he refused to talk, there was no point in asking any further.
He decided to investigate the matter secretly and make the person who bullied Bai Qingnian pay the price.
...
The Dark Zone, L Mercenary Group.
Long Qianling gently swirled the red wine in her glass, staring blankly out the window, lost in thought.
Nan Qing stood behind her with a troubled expression. Ever since Young Master Bai left, the eldest brother had been sitting here for a full five hours.
She didn't dare go up and ask the boss, because the boss's mood was really low right now.
"Nanqing, what do you think we should do to make someone remember everything that happened before?"
Long Qianling's sudden words startled Nan Qing.
Fortunately, she had a strong mentality. She lowered her head and thought about her question for a moment before asking back, "Boss, then why did he forget?"
Long Qianling fell silent.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Nan Qing continued, "There are many ways to make him remember, such as going to the hospital to see a doctor, or recreating a scene that he will never forget."
An unforgettable scene...
Does that count?
Long Qianling's eyes darkened, and he felt it was worth a try.
"Nan Qing, come here." Long Qianling waved to Nan Qing.
Nan Qing quickly walked to her side, and Long Qianling stood up and whispered a few words in her ear.
...
"Did you understand?"
"Understood..." Although Nan Qing didn't know when her boss had such a bizarre encounter with Young Master Bai, she didn't dare to ask any more questions. She quickly agreed and went to carry out the tasks Long Qianling had instructed.
...
One week later, at the iHua Hotel.
Most of the prominent families in City A came today because the Bai family had brought back their second young master from the countryside and held a wedding banquet at the largest hotel in City A, inviting them all.
Bai Qingnian, dressed in a white suit, sat in the dessert area not far away, enjoying small cakes.
Today, Wei Zhu was quite proactive in leading Bai Shaoheng among the wealthy men.
Bai Fengfu and her daughter were chatting with a group of business partners. Ming Yuyin glanced around and, not finding Bai Qingnian, began to worry.
Could it be that the Bai family has locked up Niannian?
Seeing Wei Zhu chatting animatedly with those noblemen, Bai Shaoheng left his side, picked up his wine glass, and walked through the crowd toward Bai Qingnian.
"Niannian, I didn't expect you to like sweets so much." Bai Shaoheng looked at Bai Qingnian with a smile.
Bai Qingnian put down the plate in his hand, looked at the boy in front of him, and smiled slightly: "Brother is joking. I'm just feeling a little hungry."
Bai Shaoheng walked over and sat down next to him, handing Bai Qingnian a glass of wine. "Come on, have a drink with your brother."
Bai Qingnian frowned, not intending to accept the glass of wine.
"What's wrong? Don't you like me if you don't answer?" Bai Shaoheng's voice was tinged with grievance.
Bai Qingnian turned to look at his slightly disappointed face, but still reached out and took the glass of wine from his hand.
"I knew you wouldn't refuse. Come on, let's have a toast." Bai Shaoheng finally smiled and gently touched his wine glass to Bai Qingnian's, making a crisp sound.
Then, under Bai Qingnian's gaze, he drank the glass of wine.
Seeing that he had drunk it, Bai Qingnian's uneasy heart relaxed slightly. He brought the glass to his lips and took a small sip, then suddenly frowned. "This wine..."
