Chapter 748 Who says I don't like her? I love her to death!
"Wh-what?"
The impact of each day's events was greater than the last, leaving Bai Luoshuang's mind in a complete mess.
I don't understand.
No.
It's probably because they were afraid of misunderstanding the meaning.
"Shuangshuang..."
He Huaixu stared at the girl and asked in a deep voice, "Do you want to try to re-evaluate our marriage? Is divorce the only option?"
"?"
Bai Luoshuang's expression changed slightly. Her first thought was: Did he and his white moonlight quarrel?
so.
Is she his backup plan?
If the two reconcile one day, will He Huaixu change his mind again and divorce her?
"What's the meaning?"
Bai Luoshuang pursed her pink lips, her starry eyes fixed on the man's serious expression.
"I don't want a divorce."
He Huaixu's Adam's apple bobbed, and he said in a low, hoarse voice, "If you think there's anything wrong with me, you can change it."
"You're not bad..."
Bai Luoshuang's mind went blank; she lowered her eyes, looking dejected.
The only downside is that I don't like her enough.
She guessed that He Huaixu might have said those words because he was provoked.
After a while, he will "reconcile" with his "white moonlight" (his first love), and then the divorce proceedings will have to begin.
never mind.
She didn't want to live such a humble life anymore, trapping herself in the past.
——
Not long after.
The vehicle stopped, and the driver opened the door, respectfully saying, "Young Master He, Madam, we've arrived at the old residence."
"Um."
He Huaixu got out of the car, pulled Bai Luoshuang into his arms, and the two walked inside side by side.
"You're back?"
Upon seeing her son and daughter-in-law, Madam He immediately greeted them with a beaming smile: "Shuangshuang, I heard you were pushed into the pool at the banquet. Are you alright?"
"It's nothing," Bai Luoshuang smiled. "Thank you for your concern, Mom."
"The Shi family is really audacious, daring to touch even the He family!" Madam He became increasingly angry as she spoke. "They even dared to call and plead for mercy just now? No way!"
"You're back?"
Father He came down the stairs, glanced at the two of them, and said in a deep voice, "Huaixu, come with me to the study."
"Um."
He Huaixu nodded and looked at the housekeeper, "Make some ginger tea for Madam to ward off the cold."
Mrs?
The aunt paused for a few seconds, then quickly replied, "Yes, young master."
"Wait for me here, don't wander off, especially don't go near the pool."
He Huaixu, his head covered in white frost, gave earnest instructions.
"I'm not a child." Bai Luoshuang blushed.
"???"
Seeing the two of them being so intimate, Madam He leaned closer to Bai Luoshuang, squinted her eyes, and said, "What happened in Beizhou this time? The two of them seem to be getting along very well."
"It's nothing."
Bai Luoshuang's cheeks flushed even more, unsure how to explain.
yes.
I went there to discuss divorce, but who knew so many messy things would happen.
——
In the study.
He's father sat at his desk, looking at He Huaixu, who was standing upright.
"I've been busy with work lately, but I also need to take care of my health."
Although they weren't biologically related, they had been raised for so many years, so there was still a bond between them.
"Thank you, Father."
"Your marriage to Luo Shuang was forced; there was no affection between you." Shifting the topic to business, Father He said earnestly, "You've been together for three years, but there's been no progress."
"What do you mean?" He Huaixu frowned.
"In that case, let's get a divorce," Mr. He said in a deep voice. "Stop torturing each other."
"I will give the Bai family more compensation."
He's father continued, "Your mother and I are getting old, and there are many things we can no longer do. You can pursue your own happiness, and we will no longer interfere."
"Who said I wanted to divorce her?"
He Huaixu raised his head, his dark eyes unfathomable, his voice low and deep.
"Not getting a divorce?"
Father He frowned and asked in confusion, "Don't you dislike Luo Shuang, so you're often away from home?"
"dislike?"
He Huaixu stood still, his body slightly bent, a helpless chuckle escaping his throat, and slowly said, "Father, I love her to death."
"..."
Mr. He's eyes widened as he stared at his son in disbelief.
——
I don't know how much time passed.
He Huaixu and his father came out of the study one after the other.
Father He gave Bai Luoshuang a deep look and said in a low voice, "Leave the Shi family's matter to the He family's lawyer. You've been frightened, so get some rest these next few days."
"yes."
Bai Luoshuang nodded, wondering if it was just her imagination, but she felt that her father's attitude towards her had become much gentler.
“We still need to visit Old Madam Bai.” He Huaixu stepped forward and naturally put his arm around Bai Luoshuang’s waist. “We won’t be going back to the old house for dinner tonight.”
"Um."
Mr. He nodded and watched the two leave.
"What did you say to Huaixu?" Madam He asked anxiously.
“Let them get a divorce,” said Mr. He. “That brat says he won’t, he loves his wife.”
"ah--"
Madam He let out a shriek, almost losing her balance, "Huaixu said he likes Shuangshuang? Is it not just a rumor? Does he have a white moonlight in his heart?"
"If I'm not mistaken, the white moonlight is Luo Shuang."
"Why didn't you say so?" Madam He clutched her chest, trying to control her racing heart. "I always thought he liked someone else."
"snort."
With his hands behind his back, Father He suddenly said, "You mouthless thing."
——
Leaving the He family's old house.
The two went to the Bai family's house.
Knowing that He Huaixu was coming, Bai Luoxi dressed up in her finest clothes several hours in advance.
"I wonder what kind of drug that little bitch gave He Huaixu when she went to the capital this time."
Madam Bai, with her exquisite makeup, revealed a hint of ruthlessness in her eyes.
The news of He Huaixu's strong defense of his wife had already spread throughout the entire Southern Continent.
“Brother He also said that he wouldn’t divorce Bai Luoshuang.” Bai Luoxi’s eyes reddened. “How can I marry him if he doesn’t kick Bai Luoshuang out?”
"Don't worry, Mom will definitely find a way for you." Madam Bai said fiercely, "The position of the young mistress of the He family was originally yours."
The words had barely left his mouth.
The servants rushed in and announced, "The young lady and her husband are back."
"..."
Bai Luoxi immediately stood up and straightened her clothes.
"The son-in-law said he's short on time and won't be coming over here," the maid added.
"What!"
Bai Luoxi's smile vanished instantly. Had she wasted her time dressing up?
"I'm going to see Grandma." Bai Luoxi snorted and started walking towards the backyard in her high heels.
Where to?
Bai Qin entered and bumped into the boisterous Bai Luoxi. His gaze turned icy: "About the swimming pool, do you think you did nothing wrong?"
“What did I do wrong?” Bai Luoxi retorted.
"You slandered Bai Luoshuang and Gu Jingnian in front of Shi Yuan. If she brings it up, do you think He Huaixu will let you off the hook?"
Bai Qin loosened his tie, his gaze icy. "Shi Yuan, it seems, needs to serve three years in prison. What about you? How many years do you want to serve?"
"..."
Bai Luoxi stood there stunned, finally realizing she was afraid.
"besides."
Bai Qin loosened his tie, his gaze deep and serious, and said, word by word, "He Huaixu will not divorce Luo Shuang. You'd better give up on that idea as soon as possible."
Why not?
Bai Luoxi's face turned pale, and she retorted in a shrill voice, "Brother He doesn't like her at all."
"Is that so?"
Bai Qin curled the corners of his lips, a soft chuckle escaping his throat: "I think he's very much in love."

There's more to come!
