Chapter 88: Exploring the Reality



After Bai Yu returned, she kept thinking about this matter and wanted to find an opportunity to investigate the situation, but she had no chance at all. She heard that the girl was well protected by Ji Qingyan.

At present, probably no one else knows about it except the Ji family. She was thinking about how to go and meet him. Why was the person she trusted taken away like this? She wanted to see what kind of person he protected so well.

She frowned, pursed her lips, and her mind was full of thoughts. After a while, she took out her cell phone and dialed the number.

"Sister Qingran."

Although her face was expressionless, her tone was very gentle. Since the person on the other side could only hear her voice and couldn't see her expression, she didn't bother to pretend. However, her voice was so gentle that it seemed to be dripping with water. If a man heard it, he would probably be reluctant to leave.

Ji Qingran was a little confused when she received her call. Why did she call her?

"Sister Baiyu?"

"It's me. I haven't had a good time with Qingran since she returned to China. Last time we met, I..." She smiled shyly, "Let me treat you to afternoon tea today. I just returned to China too, so let's go out together. I don't think you'll refuse me."

Bai Yu's words made Ji Qingran feel a little unsure of how to refuse. Even if she said no, she was still like the sister next door who always remembered to give her gifts on her birthday. She hesitated for a moment before finally agreeing, "Okay."

"That's great. I'll give you the address and we'll meet later." When Bai Yu heard her agree, he immediately gave her the address and hung up the phone.

Ji Qingran changed her clothes and went downstairs. Old Master Ji, who was downstairs, saw that she was dressed up and carrying her bag, and knew that she was going out, so he asked casually, "Are you going out? You said you would accompany grandpa, and you have to leave today."

Ji Qingran didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he still came down and took his grandfather's arm, saying with a smile, "I will come back in the evening and stay with you for a few days. I will stay with you until you get tired of me and drive me away, okay?"

When Mr. Ji heard this, he laughed dumbly, "You naughty girl, go out and play, but don't play too late."

"Okay, I'm leaving now."

After saying that, she left Ji's house, went to the garage, drove her sports car, and quickly arrived at the place where she had agreed to meet Bai Yu.

Bai Yu deliberately chose a seat by the window so he could see her at a glance. When she pushed the door open, he stood up with a smile and gestured to her, "Sister Qingran, this way."

Ji Qingran saw her walking over.

"Sister Bai Yu." He greeted her, then sat opposite her and took his bag and placed it on the seat next to her.

"I don't know what you like, so I'll order you a cup of coffee first." Bai Yu said to Ji Qingran with a smile, and then adjusted her long skirt slightly before sitting down.

"I like it very much. Thank you, Sister Baiyu." She even took a sip and nodded in agreement, "Not bad."

"As long as you like it." Bai Yu brought up the topic and talked to Ji Qingran about luxury goods, bags, etc. After all, girls are more interested in these.

Ji Qingran also gradually started chatting with her. The atmosphere between the two was very harmonious and they had a very happy chat.

Until finally, when Bai Yu saw that Ji Qingran had completely let go, he said cryptically, "I just heard two days ago that a distant cousin of mine is being entangled with a girl."

Ji Qingran immediately became interested when he heard this, and asked curiously, "What do you mean by being entangled by a girl?"

Seeing that she was interested, Bai Yu continued, "I heard that it was a girlfriend that my cousin had secretly dated. He found that they were not suitable and wanted to break up but couldn't. The girl kept pestering him and refused to leave. Later she said she was pregnant and forced my distant cousin to marry her. Girls nowadays are really powerful..." She pretended to sigh unintentionally.

But it sounded interesting. The more Ji Qingran listened, the more serious her expression became. She thought of her brother. What if her brother also had a girlfriend like this? Wouldn't the family be in chaos then?

No, she had to go and see it to feel at ease. She couldn't care less about shopping with Bai Yu. She no longer had the interest to go shopping. Her mind was completely wandering. "Sister Bai Yu, I have something urgent to do. I'll leave first. Let's make an appointment next time."

Bai Yu didn't know whether she had heard him or not. He wanted to say something else, but Ji Qingran had already stood up and left, not giving him a chance.

After a while, the door was pushed open by a man in a blue suit with a smirk on his face. He glanced around casually and fixed his eyes on Bai Yu's position.

He walked over with a casual pace, sat down, and found a comfortable position to lean against her. His two slender, bright eyes looked down at her from top to bottom for a long time, and then a dissolute smile appeared on his face. "If you have any important information to tell me, it's best not to lie to me, otherwise my patience will be limited."

Bai Yu knew that the man in front of him had been a sworn enemy of Ji Qingyan since college, and they had been fighting for so many years. Everyone knew that he wanted to know any news about Ji Qingyan, under the pretext of knowing yourself and knowing your enemy.

Bai Yu smiled brightly, and said confidently, "I wonder if you are interested in the information about Ji Qingyan."

"Oh?" Zou Kai raised his voice and looked at her with a half-smile, "What news about him?"

"He has a girlfriend who is hidden very well and is protected very well by him. Aren't you curious?" Bai Yu revealed the news, which was equivalent to letting him know Ji Qingyan's weakness. He would naturally check it out. With his means, Ji Qingyan's girlfriend might not be hidden for long.

Zou Kai acted as if he hadn't heard anything, his expression remained unchanged, and he smiled meaningfully, "Do you think I can be used by you?" He knew exactly what she was up to, and what he hated most was giving in to others' wishes. "Don't show those little tricks to me, I don't like them."

Bai Yu's expression froze, "What does Mr. Zou mean?"

"Don't you understand what I mean? Thank you, Miss Bai, for the coffee." After saying that, he took a big sip of the coffee in front of him and left.

Bai Yu, who was left behind, clenched her palms tightly, as if she could not feel the pain. After a long time, she slowly loosened her hands, took the bag next to her, took out the mirror, touched up her lipstick, and stood up to leave.

Seeing this, the waiter quickly walked over and said, "Ma'am, please pay the bill this way."

Bai Yu: “…”

She tried to suppress her anger, forced a smile, and took out a card from her bag. "Swipe the card."

"Okay, ma'am." The waiter took her card and handed it back to her with both hands after paying. "Here you are, ma'am. I look forward to seeing you next time."

Bai Yu took the card and left without looking back.

She had gained nothing from coming out today. She met two idiots and it was useless. She was still on her own. Thinking that this place was not far from Ji's Building, she wanted to meet him under the pretext of discussing work.
