Chapter 25: The Bai Family in Beijing
Jiang Qingqing naturally would not refuse his words.
Even if she was asked to paint unconditionally, she would not refuse.
Because he was a god who had saved her several times in just a few days.
Jiang Qingqing put the doll down in her arms and nodded obediently: "What kind of painting does Father God want? Is there anything he particularly likes?"
He reached out and picked up the wolf-hair brush on the table and dipped it in ink.
"It will be all right."
Fu Zhengnan didn't have any requirements, so in the end Jiang Qingqing drew the pear tree in Baiwan Palace based on her own creativity.
In the blank space beside, the words were mentioned.
I heard...that pear tree was planted by my father for my mother when he first met her.
It blooms every year.
Watching the scroll disappear on the table, Jiang Qingqing suddenly felt less sad.
The next second after the scroll disappears, it will appear in the hands of the god;
Does that mean that after her mother disappeared in Daliang, she would also appear in a place she didn't know?
"Jiang Qingqing, do you want to watch cartoons?"
Fu Zhengnan interrupted Jiang Qingqing's thoughts and spoke coldly.
"What is a cartoon?"
Jiang Qingqing blinked, not quite understanding.
Fu Zhengnan flipped through the cartoon rankings, thought for a moment, and said lightly: "Well, something to amuse children."
Jiang Qingqing: ???
I'm not a child.
I don't really want to watch it.
But it was hard to refuse, so I nodded gently, "Then let me take a look..."
Fu Zhengnan turned on the projector.
While searching for the source of the film, a trailer for a new movie popped up, accompanied by an indescribable sound.
Jiang Qingqing stared with wide eyes.
This is what the gods use to appease children!
How come it’s even more daring than the little picture albums she used to peek at in the imperial study? Do all the kids there read that kind of stuff?
Under the neon lights of the nightclub, the men and women under the lights ignored the public...
"Wow..."
Jiang Qingqing let out a small cry and involuntarily leaned forward towards the projection screen.
By the time Fu Zhengnan reacted, the half-minute exciting scene was almost over, and Fu Zhengnan didn't even have time to stop it.
"Jiang Qingqing! Can't you close your eyes when you see something bad?"
Jiang Qingqing was completely confused.
"Didn't you tell me to watch cartoons... I'm watching them right now..."
Fu Zhengnan: “…”
It was my fault.
He raised his hand and rubbed his nose bone, then said slowly: "I'll change it for you. This one is not a cartoon."
Jiang Qingqing shook her head and said, "I think this is pretty good."
Fu Zhengnan pursed his thin lips slightly.
He looked puzzled, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Finally, under Jiang Qingqing's strong resistance, the scene was switched to [Happy on the Green Grassland].
"Look at this."
Jiang Qingqing curled her lips, a little angry.

Beijing Bai Family
Bai Wan's independent laboratory
Tens of thousands of top-of-the-line computers were running frantically and fast. Bai Wan sat in front of the main computer with a grim expression.
The speed at which my hands type code is getting slower and slower.
The original code of the game.
It has been modified!
A bodyguard in black knocked on the door of the laboratory and said, "Miss, the Fu family is investigating you."
Bai Wan frowned and said, "Cut off the information of that overseas account. We can't let the Fu family know that this game is related to the Bai family yet."
The black-clad bodyguard spoke hesitantly, "They probably got some evidence, and now they're not just investigating the Bai family. They've already started looking for the place where you disappeared twenty years ago..."
Bai Wan let out a soft "tsk". Her good daughter had met the big bad wolf.
I was tricked so quickly.
She glanced at the message Bai Jing sent her on her phone and waved to the black-clad bodyguard, "Go down, I'll handle this."
Bai Jing, the adopted son of the Bai family.
Bai Wan's nominal brother.
After the bodyguard left, Bai Wan opened the voice call with him.
The call was quickly connected, and a man's voice came over: "Wanwan, father asked us to go back to the old house tonight for dinner."
Bai Wan said "hmm".
Just as he was about to hang up, Bai Jing stopped him: "Are you in the lab? I'm outside the lab right now. Let's go back together."
Bai Wan instinctively wanted to refuse.
Because she hasn't figured out the code modifications yet.
Who tampered with the code? No one knew when it was modified, and no one knew if it would cause any harm to Jiang Qingqing and Jiang Yanting.
But Bai Jing's next words made Bai Wan swallow back her refusal.
He said, "I can help you with the Fu family's affairs."
Bai Wan looked at the chaotic data in front of her and thought for a while.
Promised Bai Jing: "Give me ten minutes."
After quickly comparing the modified data and transferring it to her mobile phone, Bai Wan picked up her bag and left the laboratory.
Outside the laboratory, a Cullinan rolled down its back window.
Bai Jing turned and looked towards the laboratory. Time had left its mark on his face, and there was a hint of fatigue and vicissitudes in the corners of his eyes. But fortunately, his posture was still upright, and he looked calm and elegant.
Bai Wan got into the car swiftly.
After closing the car door, a blanket was placed on my legs.
"It's autumn."
Bai Jing explained simply.
Bai Wan didn't say anything about it and went straight to the point: "Don't let them investigate the Fu family's affairs."
The game's scope was quite extensive, surpassing the common perception of games and reaching the realm of the supernatural. Without knowing the full details of the Fu family, it couldn't be easily disclosed.
Bai Jing did not respond to Bai Wan's question, but changed the subject:
"Auntie Huang cooked your favorite Dongpo pork tonight. You haven't been back for so many years. Come and try it and see if the taste has changed."
Speaking of this, a strange look flashed across Bai Wan's eyes.
Her beloved daughter also loves Dongpo pork as much as she does.
I just don’t know if that kid Fu Zhengnan went to buy it. You know, with what happened today, the price was not that high at that time.
A plate of Dongpo pork costs 10,000 yuan.
Why...
"Dad, have you been okay these years?"
When Bai Wan mentioned Old Master Bai, her tone was guilty.
She hadn't seen Old Master Bai in the few days since she returned. As the only daughter of the Bai family, she had created a game that spanned ancient and modern times, but she had ruined herself.
It disappeared for twenty years.
Bai Wan felt guilty.
Bai Jing seized upon her guilt and said, "Since you left, Father's health has deteriorated drastically. He's been on the verge of death several times and has been rescued."
"Father is old. Isn't it time for you to consider finding someone to start a family with so that he can feel at ease? He won't leave suddenly again this time, right?"
From what Bai Jing said, he wanted Bai Wan to stop researching that game.
But how could Bai Wan agree?
She declined, "It was just an accident twenty years ago. I set the wrong value. This time, it won't happen again."
Bai Jing frowned, "Wanwan, your father's wish for many years has been to have you by his side. Now that you're back, you should forget everything that happened in the game and stay by his side."
Bai Wan raised her eyes and looked at him, the stubbornness in her eyes was the same as it was twenty years ago.
"My daughter is there, I can't just ignore her."
besides...
That man.
He's probably going crazy, right?
Bai Jing said with a hint of anger: "It's just a game world after all. I think it's time for you to wake up."
Bai Wan didn't respond.
She thought she had more say in whether that place was a game world or not.
After arriving at the old house, Bai Wan pushed open the car door.
Bai Jing sat in the car, looking at her back as she quickly left, his face turned cold.
Made a series of phone calls.
"It's me, time to act. I only have one request, destroy that phone."
The person on the other end of the phone sounded hesitant:
"Master Bai, the Fu family... I heard that they have been dealing with arms with Country L in recent years. If something happens to the Fu family's prince in Hong Kong, I'm afraid..."
South Fu, North Bai.
The Bai family only occupied a position in the capital.
Although the Fu family's roots are in Haicheng, things behind the scenes are complicated.
Bai Jing picked up the blanket that Bai Wan had just covered her legs with and rubbed it with his fingertips. He seemed to have made a decision:
"Don't cruise ships pass through the high seas? Go ahead and do it. If anything goes wrong, the Bai family will cover it."
It's just a head-on collision.
That also requires that the kid from the Fu family comes back alive.
After explaining everything, Bai Jing folded the blanket, got up and got out of the car.
The house was peaceful.
Bai Wan brought a plate of grapes to Old Man Bai and said flatteringly, "I really had something to do a few days ago. Look, my father gave me the order and I appeared before you."
Mr. Bai obviously didn't buy her talk: "You're such a chatterbox, but after all these years, you're willing to come back?"
"Yes, yes."
Bai Wan agreed perfunctorily and didn't want to reveal too much.
"Now that you're back, start going to the company tomorrow. Bai Jing has been managing it for the past twenty years, so it's time for you to learn how to take over."
Mr. Bai didn't mind Bai Jing being present.
Speak the truth clearly.
Bai Jing, who had just entered the room, did not show any reaction to the fact that Old Man Bai favored Bai Wan.
Instead, he responded:
"Wanwan, come to the company tomorrow and I'll teach you step by step."
He didn't marry for many years just to wait for Bai Wan.
As long as Bai Wan was alone, he had no objection to who would be in charge of the group. After all, he was just an adopted son, and relying on the Bai family to build his power over the years was enough.
