Chapter 8: I'm a Rich Heiress, and I'm Coming Clean!
Bai You smiled.
There's nothing wrong with Bai Qizhang being so worried about the host and constantly monitoring its movements.
Bai You: "Of course I don't blame you. It's precisely because you love me, Dad, that you care about my life."
Bai Qizhang was still somewhat worried.
Although his daughter is willing to come back.
Bai Qizhang thought for a moment, but couldn't help but say, "Daughter, Dad doesn't know how far you and that boy have progressed. But that boy is not a good match for you."
As he spoke, Bai Qizhang sighed.
He had no idea how deeply his precious daughter loved Chengde.
If he were to tell her that Chengde and He Lianyi had an improper relationship... could his precious daughter bear it?
Bai You noticed Bai Qizhang's hesitation.
She smiled reassuringly and said, "Dad, don't worry, I won't give those awful people a second chance to hurt me. It's just... I need some time to clean up some things."
Bai Qizhang and the host mother exchanged a glance, then nodded without asking any further questions.
—
Chengde didn't expect that Baiyou would pretend nothing had happened and return to their rented apartment.
Watching Bai You busily tidying up, Cheng De couldn't help but feel proud.
Bai You really can't live without him!
Chengde took off his coat, walked behind Baiyou, and gave her a sudden hug.
Although Bai You felt uncomfortable, she let Cheng De hug her.
Cheng De greedily inhaled the fragrance emanating from Bai You, but his mind was filled with memories of He Lianyi's wanton behavior.
He said sweetly, "Baby, I was too harsh with my words that day! But you have to understand me. I was just acting on impulse because I love you so much. I don't want us to be unable to get married."
Bai You's lips curled into a cold sneer, but her tone was very considerate, "I know."
As she spoke, she put down the mop in her hand and turned to look at Chengde.
She looked into Chengde's eyes, her gaze filled with deep affection, "Chengde, there's something I've never told you. I hope you won't blame me after I tell you."
Chengde frowned subconsciously.
What he disliked most about Bai You was her timid and submissive demeanor. But she was altruistic and would let him manipulate her.
Cheng De looked patient and affectionate, and even kissed Bai You's forehead tenderly, saying, "Baby, you say it, I promise I won't be angry."
Bai You's eyes flickered as she suppressed a mocking laugh, took out her phone, and found a photo of her and Bai Qizhang together.
Bai You said with an innocent look, "The chairman of the company you work for is my biological father. The reason I hid it was because I trusted He Lianyi too much at the time, and I was afraid that He Lianyi would feel inferior because of my background. So I kept it a secret."
As she spoke, Bai You ignored Cheng De's shock and continued to speak in a humble manner, "Actually, I shouldn't have hidden it from you. But I once suspected that you and He Lianyi had something going on... so I didn't tell you."
After a pause, Bai You pretended to be afraid that Cheng De would be angry, grabbed his hand, and quickly explained and apologized, "I'm sorry, Cheng De! I have my reasons! Please forgive me, okay?"
Cheng De said it would be a lie to say he wasn't shocked by Bai You's sudden revelation of her family background.
But then, he was overjoyed!
He must hold onto the pomelo tightly!
Only in this way can he rise to prominence and become a phoenix!
Chengde was also somewhat pleased with himself.
Luckily, Baiyou is a hopeless romantic.
Otherwise, he would have to put in even more effort.
Chengde sighed, feigning ignorance, and adopted a profound expression.
“Baby, you’re overthinking it. I can understand why you’re hiding it. It must be because I haven’t done a good enough job.”
