With Bai Xuelin's help, he stood up and then said to Bai Xuelin, "Ask Xiuyan if he has time to come back for a meal this weekend, and invite Xiao Jin and Xi Ya to come along."
Bai Xuelin nodded and said, "Okay, I'll make the arrangements."
Although Bai Zhanwang didn't want Bai Xuelin to help him, his legs were a little numb from sitting for so long, and it was indeed difficult for him to climb the stairs on his own.
Seeing that the two elders had left, Bai Jinghuan finally relaxed.
However, he is now quite calm in front of Bai Zhanwang. He wouldn't have dared to say those things before, but now he at least dares to.
Bai Hongyi turned to leave, but Bai Jinghuan immediately called out to him, "Brother, where are you going?"
"Let's go for a walk and clear our heads," Bai Hongyi said casually.
Bai Jinghuan suddenly asked, "Have you been having some worries lately?"
"Could it be that you're also troubled by love?" He looked Bai Hongyi up and down with a wicked smile.
Bai Hongyi smiled helplessly. They say you should never bring up the most sensitive topic, but he insisted on doing so, so he had no choice but to teach him a lesson.
"You should mind your own business and not let those reporters take pictures. I won't plead for you with Dad if that happens," Bai Hongyi said bluntly, without beating around the bush.
Bai Jinghuan naturally denied it, saying, "What are you talking about?"
"That's enough." Bai Hongyi didn't intend to continue. He knew Bai Jinghuan was a smart man and would definitely understand.
Bai Jinghuan was indeed a little guilty, but as the saying goes, one won't give up until the Yellow River is crossed, so he still tried to show off, saying, "Brother, there's no evidence, so don't accuse me."
Bai Hongyi originally thought it would be enough for him to know, but since he insisted on being stubborn, he had no choice but to show him the evidence. "Take a look for yourself."
A blatantly explicit photo was displayed on the phone in front of Bai Jinghuan, who was instantly stunned. "What is this?"
"You're asking me?" Bai Hongyi didn't intend to look at it any longer; it was simply too much of an eyesore.
But the photos show Bai Jinghuan with multiple women, enjoying fine wine and beautiful women.
Bai Jinghuan snapped back to reality and asked, "You were following me?"
Bai Hongyi patted his shoulder with a smile and said, "I don't have time for that."
"Then... then where did this photo come from?" Bai Jinghuan couldn't deny it anymore. He had been caught red-handed, so what else was there to say? He was just worried about the origin of the photo.
If it was Bai Hongyi who took the photos, then it's not a big deal; his own brother would definitely help him. But if it was someone else, then things will get much worse.
Bai Hongyi said calmly, "A friend, a veteran entertainment reporter."
"If it weren't for our acquaintance, this kind of good thing wouldn't have happened."
Upon hearing this, Bai Jinghuan breathed a sigh of relief; his worries could be put to rest.
But knowing this made him a little embarrassed, and he said to Bai Hongyi with a smile, "Brother, you said you weren't interested in that kind of thing, but I..."
“I am in my prime and have this need.”
"Then let's find a permanent one," Bai Hongyi said irritably.
Bai Jinghuan said with a wronged expression, "I want to too, but it's hard to find a reliable place."
His words could only fool those who didn't know him well. In any case, Bai Hongyi knew him inside and out and knew what he was thinking.
It's not that I can't find it, it's that I don't want to look for it at all. How can I play if I do look for it?
I am delighted to linger among the myriad flowers every day.
Although Bai Hongyi knew this, he didn't want to point it out. Instead, he warned him, "Don't let it happen again. You won't be so lucky next time."
Bai Hongyi emphasized the word "good luck," which made Bai Jinghuan feel uneasy.
Bai Hongyi then reminded him, "Now the outside world knows Xi Yatou's identity. Soon she will become the person in charge of the Bai family. You mustn't become the target of her making an example of someone."
Bai Jinghuan had no doubt about this, and he also had great confidence in Qiao Xi, saying, "That little girl would never do that to me."
“She can’t, but Grandpa can.” Bai Hongyi immediately poured cold water on his enthusiasm.
Bai Jinghuan suddenly exclaimed, "I'd better not stay here, it's too dangerous."
"Where is it not dangerous?" Bai Hongyi kept pouring cold water on him.
Bai Jinghuan, completely unaware of anything, asked blankly, "Brother, what do you mean by that?"
Bai Hongyi's eyes were deep, and he said in a somewhat heavy tone, "The capital city is not peaceful right now."
Yan Luoheng drove Jun Jiuge straight to his residence in the capital, the same place where Jun Jiuge had been brought back after being injured last time.
Although it wasn't that place, she still felt uncomfortable here, simply because of his presence.
As long as he's around, all those painful memories from the past will come flooding back, and there's no way to stop them.
As soon as she got out of the car, Jun Jiuge walked in the opposite direction instead of going into his house.
She had no choice but to get into his car because Qiao Xi suddenly appeared, and now there's no need for her to stay here.
But now that she's here, it seems leaving is no longer something she can control.
"Where does Xiao Jiu want to go?" Yan Luoheng immediately blocked her way.
Jun Jiuge said decisively, "Let's go home."
Yan Luoheng deliberately said sarcastically, "Yes, Xiao Jiu now has a home to return to."
"Xiao Jiu, do you still remember that time when you were homeless?" Yan Luoheng suddenly reminded her.
Jun Jiuge certainly remembered, and the memory was still fresh in her mind, but she didn't want to think about it.
But no matter how angry she tried to forget, it only backfired.
However, compared to before, her reaction is much better now; at least she no longer clutches her head in anguish, unwilling to recall the past.
Jun Jiuge sneered and asked, "Do you want me to thank you for taking me in?"
"There's no need for that," Yan Luoheng said modestly. "I asked Xiao Jiu to stay."
Jun Jiuge suddenly looked at him with a very serious gaze, a slight sneer on her lips, "You beg me."
Yan Luoheng's smile froze on his lips, and he asked, somewhat doubting his ears, "What did you say?"
“I need you to beg me to stay, then I will stay,” Jun Jiuge said firmly.
She knew she was crazy to say such a thing, but it was a decision made in that instant; she wanted to see his reaction.
Since her resistance was pointless to him anyway, she decided to go along with him, but on certain conditions.
Jun Jiuge saw Yan Luoheng's performance at this moment and could only say that she was quite satisfied.
It seems that this change in strategy to deal with him has not been entirely ineffective.
Yan Luoheng suddenly chuckled and asked, "Little Jiu doesn't want to stay?"
