"Brother Ziqian, I have an exam this afternoon, and I haven't had time to study yet... Can you let me go now?"
He had been hugging her for several minutes, and Bai Xiaoruo was worried that other students at the school would see them if this continued.
She doesn't want to be famous anymore.
"I'm sorry..." Ji Ziqian wanted to hold her like this forever, so he reluctantly let go of Bai Xiaoruo. "Then I wish you good luck on your exam."
"Thank you, I'll try my best. By the way, Ziqian, what brings you here? Weren't you doing an internship?"
"I just happened to have a day off today, so I came to the school for a visit before heading back."
"Okay. I need to go back and continue reading. Let's chat again next time."
"good."
Bai Xiaoruo got up and left, clutching the book in her arms.
Ji Ziqian sat on the bench, watching her figure walk further and further away, and he could not forget her for a long time.
Every time I spent with her, it felt so short.
I'm actually a little envious of the man who became her husband, able to have her like this forever. If I hadn't been a step too late, perhaps...
Achoo!
At the same time, Xuan Mingyu, who was sitting on the sofa idly reading the news on his laptop, sneezed.
That's strange, do I have a cold? Why am I suddenly sneezing?
"Young Master, are you alright? Are you alright? Should I make you some ginger soup?" Aunt Qin asked with concern.
"No."
He doesn't want to drink any ginger soup; he can't stand the smell alone.
These past few days, Xian Mingyu has been staying at the new courtyard. This was arranged by Xian Zhengsen, who said that having someone take care of him and Bai Xiaoruo would lighten Bai Xiaoruo's burden. After all, she is the young mistress of the Xian family, so how could she always personally serve Xian Mingyu, cooking for him and doing housework? It's too tiring for her.
Xian Mingyu was naturally unwilling. Once the honeymoon was over and he regained his power, he would take Bai Xiaoruo and move back to Junjiang District.
He preferred spending time alone with her to being watched all the time.
......
Hiding behind a pillar not far away, Bai Xiaofu glared hatefully at Bai Xiaoruo's long-gone figure.
Bai Xiaofu saw everything Bai Xiaoruo and Ji Ziqian were saying to each other and hugging.
She originally wanted to rush over directly, but she was afraid of upsetting Ji Ziqian and that he would side with Bai Xiaoruo.
What is it about me that I lack compared to her? Why is it that Ziqian's mind is always focused on that bitch?
Bai Xiaoruo, that despicable slut, is already married, yet she's still embracing and hugging Ziqian in such an ambiguous way. It's absolutely disgusting!
Bai Xiaofu originally went to the teacher's office to get something. When she finished getting the thing and was about to go back, she happened to see it when she passed by the basketball court.
If she hadn't happened to see this scene, she wouldn't have known that Bai Xiaoruo still had feelings for Ji Ziqian and was still shamelessly seducing him!
I thought that now that she's married and doesn't live at home anymore, I wouldn't have to see her all the time, and I'd be rid of one annoying person, someone who overestimated themselves and tried to compete with me. I never expected that she still had feelings for Ziqian!
Bai Xiaoruo! Just you wait! I refuse to believe that man can protect you forever! The day I catch you, I'll make sure you suffer a horrible death!
***
Bai Xiaofu had no classes in the afternoon, so she went straight home.
When she got home, she had just reached the entrance hall to change her shoes when she heard Bai Minglei and Song Meiyan talking in the living room.
He seemed to be preoccupied with something.
"Honey, what are we going to do now? Won't those workers cause a scene?"
"I'll think of another way, I'll think of another way."
"What other ideas are we talking about! We need to go and ask Xian Mingyu for money! The Xian family has to cover this hole. After all, he's our son-in-law, he should lend a helping hand."
"Why would I look for Xian Mingyu! Others may not know, but do you think I don't? The factory was forced to close down this time because of Xian Mingyu. Looking for him? What good will he do for me? I don't want to be laughed at by him again!"
"this......"
"Dad, Mom, what happened? What factory closed down? What are you talking about?" Bai Xiaofu walked over.
"This is none of your business, go upstairs and play." Bai Minglei didn't want his daughter to interfere in company matters too early.
"Dad! I'm not a child anymore. I'm part of the family, and family matters are my matters. What happened? Why did the factory close down?"
Since Bai Xiaoruo and Xuan Mingyu got married, Xuan Mingyu's status as the Bai family's son-in-law has become a fixed cash cow for the Bai family.
Bai Minglei, Song Meiyan, and Bai Xiaofu already had a lot of expenses. In addition, Bai Minglei has been keeping several mistresses outside in recent years, giving them gifts and trying to please them, which has cost them a lot.
The first betrothal gift from the Xian family was a generous 200 million yuan, but the three of them spent almost all of it within a few months. So Bai Minglei kept swallowing his pride and asking Xian Mingyu for more money.
Although they were turned away many times, the Xian family still had Xian Zhengsen in charge. He would let Xian Mingyu give them tens of thousands of yuan to spend on a regular basis, and sometimes giving them three or five hundred thousand yuan was easy.
However, in the last two months, the Xian family has stopped giving any money and seems to be planning to close the net and catch a bigger fish.
Bai Minglei was already in dire need of money, and then this trouble struck again.
The Bai Group owns a total of seven factories, three of which are in L City. They had always been doing very well and making a lot of profits. However, not long ago, a lot of dirty secrets were exposed, and the relevant government departments directly shut them down. One factory after another was forced to close down. The workers in several factories have been owed wages for two or three months and have not been paid. Everyone is anxious and even went to the company to make trouble. Bai Minglei was really at a loss. The company's cash flow was already tight, and now he could not come up with enough money to pay the wages of so many workers. He had no choice but to go home and hide. He hadn't dared to go to work for two days.
