Chapter 743 It seems the divorce rumors are about to be confirmed!
A self-inflicted injury ruse?
He Huaixu listened attentively and kept it in mind.
——
At the entrance of the villa.
Xia Xun and Sheng Beitang gave Bai Luoshuang many gifts.
Most of them were gifts for He Huaixu's adoptive parents and Old Mrs. Bai.
"Thank you, Mom and Dad, for being so thoughtful," Bai Luoshuang said, moved.
"That's good."
Xia Xun patted Bai Luoshuang's hand and said gently, "As long as you're happy, whatever you do, your parents will support you. Your parents will always be your parents."
"Um."
Bai Luoshuang nodded dejectedly; she knew it was about "divorce."
Xia Xun then looked at He Huaixu, lowered her voice, and said fiercely, "I really like Shuangshuang as my daughter-in-law. No matter what, you have to keep her for me."
"Um."
He Huaixu nodded and said in a deep voice, "I will try my best."
He didn't want to lose Bai Luoshuang more than anyone else.
——
Two days later...
The Shang Group's private jet landed at Nanzhou Airport.
After several days of rest, and with Pei Jinwu's newly prepared medicine.
Bai Luoshuang can already walk on her own, but she walks rather slowly.
"Young Master."
The He family's bodyguards were waiting at the door early, and respectfully greeted, "Young Madam."
"Let's go back to the bridal chamber first."
He Huaixu got into the car and gave instructions in a deep voice.
"Aren't we going to see Mom and Dad first?" Bai Luoshuang turned her head to look at him.
"You've been on the plane for so long, you should rest first." He Huaixu took off his coat and covered Bai Luoshuang with it. "It's okay if it's a little later."
"oh."
Bai Luoshuang didn't question his decision much; she was indeed quite sleepy and leaned back in her chair, closing her eyes for a short rest.
The journey back was quite long, and Bai Luoshuang unknowingly fell asleep.
He was still unconscious when the car stopped.
"Young Master—" The driver turned to look at He Huaixu, about to speak, but was stopped by a look from the man.
The driver wisely kept quiet and carefully opened the car door.
He Huaixu got out of the car first, then gently picked up Bai Luoshuang.
"..."
The maid in the bridal chamber stared wide-eyed.
When did the young master and young mistress become so in love?
I still remember the last time the two of them were in the same frame, they seemed to be separated by a vast distance.
I stayed in the villa for three days, and I didn't even say ten sentences in total.
——
Let go of the white frost.
He Huaixu rubbed his wrist and walked into the living room. The housekeeper stepped forward and said, "Young Master, the master is on the phone."
"Go down."
He Huaixu took the phone and said expressionlessly, "Father."
"You're back?"
"yes."
"There's a banquet in Nanzhou tomorrow, all for your generation," Father He said in a deep, authoritative voice. "Now that you're back, you should bring Luo Shuang with you."
"Can."
He Huaixu responded in a low voice, "I have to go to the lab to take care of some things tomorrow."
"Then let Luo Shuang go first. We can't have both of them being late and letting others gossip about the He family."
"I understand." He Huaixu's tone remained unchanged. Just before hanging up, his father spoke again: "Come back when you're done. Your mother and I have something to say to you."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, He Huaixu returned the phone to the aunt and explained, "Tell Madam to get some sleep. When she wakes up, tell her that something has come up in my lab."
"I will go to the banquet after I finish my business."
"Okay, okay." The aunt was surprised and couldn't hide her joy.
The eldest son not only returned, but also accompanied the young mistress to the banquet.
The young mistress has finally made it through.
"besides--"
He Huaixu took a few steps, then suddenly stopped, his gaze falling on the aunt's face. "She has a poor appetite? How come she's lost so much weight?"
"Not good," the aunt replied honestly. "It's probably because eating alone is too lonely."
"..."
He Huaixu's gaze deepened, startling the aunt who quickly looked away.
"Make her some nourishing soup." He Huaixu pursed his lips and said in a deep voice, "Also, I'll be staying here from now on."
"ah?"
The aunt was stunned for a few seconds, then smiled broadly and said, "Yes, I'll prepare the things right away."
——
When I woke up again.
It was already dark, and He Huaixu was nowhere to be seen at home.
After the aunt explained the situation, she handed the items sent from the old house to Bai Luoshuang.
Invitations to tomorrow's banquet.
It is said that the Lin family celebrated their golden wedding anniversary and invited the upper echelons of the entire Southern Continent Imperial City to attend.
"That's roughly what the young master said," the aunt said with a smile, her eyes narrowed. "He also said that he would come to see you as soon as he was done with his work."
“He’s never liked these kinds of occasions.” Bai Luoshuang rubbed her ankle and said absentmindedly, “It doesn’t matter whether he comes or not.”
"Mrs……"
The aunt leaned closer, smiling brightly, "The gentleman seems like a different person; he's quite considerate towards you."
“Things have definitely changed.” Bai Luoshuang looked at the medicine by the bedside, her thoughts in disarray. “I just don’t know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.”
She suddenly couldn't quite figure out He Huaixu's mindset.
——
After the aunt left.
Bai Luoshuang dialed her best friend's number: "How's the investigation going?"
"I found a tiny bit," her best friend replied softly. "The person He Huaixu likes is supposedly in the same year as us. We don't know who it is yet."
They were in the same grade and knew He Huaixu.
Bai Luoshuang thought for a moment, and suddenly the image of a girl appeared in her mind.
Their classmate from the next class, He Huaixu's junior, went abroad for further studies three years ago.
I heard that he's coming back soon.
He will soon be working at the research institute where He Huaixu works.
Could it be her?
——
The next day.
Bai Luoshuang wore a light-colored cheongsam, and her hair was styled in a natural and exquisite updo.
Her foot injury hasn't fully healed, so she can only wear flat shoes.
They brought gifts and appeared at the Lin couple's golden wedding anniversary banquet.
Signed in.
Not far away, a strange, eerie voice suddenly came from behind:
"This is someone else's golden wedding anniversary. The people who come here are either happily married with a happy family or have many children and grandchildren. Some people can't even see their husbands, yet they dare to come to a golden wedding anniversary celebration. Aren't they afraid of bringing bad luck?"
"yes."
The girl next to her chimed in, her tone dripping with sarcasm: "All the other guests are couples, but this person is different. She's practically a discarded wife, yet she still has the nerve to come alone. I don't know what's going on in her mind."
"Oh dear, we're getting a divorce anyway, how can we attend events together?"
"Divorce?" The girl's voice was louder, attracting the attention of many people around her. She spoke even more smugly: "Wow, they're getting a divorce, and she still comes to their golden wedding anniversary banquet. She's obviously here to sabotage them."
These words were spoken.
All eyes turned to Bai Luoshuang.
"..."
Bai Luoshuang turned around and found that the people speaking were Bai Luoxi's best friends.
Everyone knows how she came to be Mrs. He.
Within the industry, no one has ever taken her seriously.
More often than not, it's seen as a joke.
"What nonsense are you spouting?"
Bai Luoxi smiled coquettishly and said deliberately, "I heard my brother-in-law is back in Nanzhou, so I'll definitely be accompanying my sister to the event."
"Then why didn't I see her?" her best friend added fuel to the fire. "She didn't even accompany her to the banquet after coming back. How badly have their relationship fallen apart?"
It seems the divorce rumors are about to be confirmed!
——
good evening.
