Chapter 796 explains that there is still a possibility.
Qin Ce was such a person.
He was standing in the kitchen, diligently cooking for his wife.
Perhaps out of concern for her, or perhaps out of habit, he would occasionally look up and glance towards the living room.
If no one told him, who would believe that he is a renowned CEO with assets worth hundreds of billions?
"Bai Yi, your cousin has told me everything about you. What are your plans for the future?" Qiao Xing handed Bai Yi a piece of fruit.
Bai Yi took it, but had no appetite. She lowered her eyes and said softly, "I don't know either."
She had considered divorce, but that was only a decision made on impulse.
Given He Fen's current attitude towards her, divorce is undoubtedly the best option.
But what will she do after the divorce?
Linlin's life had just settled down, and Bai Yi had witnessed firsthand how difficult it was for him to go from being a stranger to resisting Wang Ye, and then to becoming familiar with him.
Regardless of the nature of her relationship with Wang Ye, the child's feelings are the purest.
Bai Yi knew that in Linlin's heart, Wang Ye had long since become like a father figure.
If she chooses to divorce at this time, the damage to Linlin may be irreparable.
But He Fen's slap became a hurdle in Bai Yi's heart.
She didn't know if the same slap would fall on her face again in the future.
But Bai Yi knew that if there were a next time, she would not choose to tolerate it as she had this time.
When that time comes, how will Wang Ye conduct himself? Will it be the end for her and Wang Ye?
Qiao Xing felt a pang of sadness seeing Bai Yi's bewildered expression.
She really wanted to help Bai Yi, but it was something she couldn't really interfere with.
Even with Wang Ye, she would at most offer him a few words of analysis, let alone with Bai Yi.
Bai Yi understood things much better than Wang Ye.
However, Qiao Xing still said to Bai Yi, "Actually, I really want you to be my sister-in-law, but if you have a better decision, I will support you unconditionally. In any situation, you can't compromise yourself first."
Bai Yi knew that Qiao Xing was already considering her feelings when he said that.
She said sincerely, "Thank you, Qiao Xing. I feel so lucky to have a friend like you."
"Me too."
After a while, Qin Ce brought the dishes out of the kitchen.
He made simple dishes, a standard three dishes and a soup, but every single one of them was incredibly delicious.
Every time Qiao Xing ate Qin Ce's cooking, she couldn't help but think about it.
She must have saved the galaxy in her past life to have met such a wonderful cook in this one.
At the dinner table, Qiao Xing and Bai Yi did not continue their previous topic.
Bai Yi also composed herself and focused on eating.
She tasted one of the dishes and couldn't help but praise it, "I didn't expect that President Qin is not only good at business, but also has excellent cooking skills. I wonder if President Qin would be interested in taking on a little apprentice? I think I'll cook for Linlin when I have time in the future."
Qin Ce served food to Qiao Xing, saying, "No need to be so polite, just call me Qin Ce. If you want to learn how to cook, I'll make a simple recipe when I have time. Just follow the steps in the recipe."
Bai Yi said half-jokingly, "This recipe should be free, right?"
Qin Ce said, "I won't accept it."
Bai Yi chuckled, "It's alright. President Qin's exclusive recipes are something that outsiders can't buy even if they have the money. Even if you charge money, I'm willing to buy them, as long as the price isn't too high."
Qiao Xing was initially worried that she would continue to feel upset, but seeing her chatting and laughing with Qin Ce in a relaxed tone, she felt somewhat relieved.
I just don't know if she has really put that matter behind her, or if she is deliberately pretending to be relaxed to numb herself.
After finishing their meal, Bai Yi prepared to leave.
Qiao Xing was worried about her. "Are you sure you can manage on your own? Why don't I take you home?"
Bai Yi chuckled, "What could possibly happen to me in broad daylight? Besides, you're pregnant, so don't worry about me. Just stay home."
She was unwilling, but Qiao Xing didn't force her. "Alright then, I won't see you off. Drive carefully on your way back."
Qiao Xing rarely said such things before, but perhaps because she had lived with Grandpa Qin for a long time, she had been influenced by him.
No matter who goes out, she can't help but give them a few words of advice.
Especially for someone like Bai Yi who has something on her mind, she was afraid that she might have an accident while walking down the street and getting distracted.
As Bai Yi said goodbye to Qiao Xing and turned around, the smile that had been on his lips gradually faded.
That moment of relief was just a facade; she didn't want her emotions to affect Qiao Xing and Qin Ce.
But the truth is, it felt like a thick layer of dark clouds had accumulated on her chest, which just wouldn't dissipate, and it even gave her the illusion that she was having difficulty breathing.
After seeing Bai Yi off, Qiao Xing told Qin Ce what had happened.
Qin Ce made no comment after hearing this.
Seeing his calm expression, Qiao Xing asked in confusion, "Why do you seem not at all surprised that my aunt would do such a thing to Bai Yi?"
Qin Ce said calmly, "That's just who she is, what's so surprising?"
Qiao Xing choked for a moment.
Although it's a bit blunt, it seems to be true.
"Do you think there's any chance my cousin and Bai Yi will ever truly be together?"
Has Bai Yi filed for divorce?
Qiao Xing shook her head. "No, it seems like she's avoiding her cousin."
Qin Ce said confidently, "Since they haven't really divorced, it means there's still a possibility."
Bai Yi was avoiding Wang Ye simply because she couldn't use this incident to ask him for a divorce. She had concerns, and Wang Ye wouldn't agree. But she couldn't get her revenge on He Fen or Wang Ye, and she certainly couldn't let Wang Ye confront him.
So he could only swallow his anger and avoid Wang Ye.
While Qiao Xing was still thinking about whether there was a better way for the two of them to overcome their current difficulties, Qin Ce had already cleaned up the dining table.
He put all his things in the sink, and left the rest to the aunt to clean up later.
He walked over and pulled Qiao Xing, who was still lost in her own thoughts, to her feet.
Qiao Xing asked suspiciously, "What are you doing?"
Qin Ce said, "Let's take a nap."
After leaving Qiao Xing's house, Bai Yi received a call from Xiao Lin.
Xiao Lin said that there was a temporary project at the branch that required her to go and assist, and because the client was from overseas, Xiao Lin was not comfortable entrusting it to other people.
Bai Yi immediately agreed, "Okay, Mr. Xiao, I'll be there first thing tomorrow morning."
Xiao Lin responded and then asked, "What's wrong? Your voice sounds a bit off. Didn't you get enough rest?"
