The more Xian Mingyu thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. He felt that he could only feel at ease if he left Bai Xiaoruo, that little girl, in a place where he could see her easily.
To prevent her and that Ji Ziqian from being all lovey-dovey right under his nose, and if word got back to his grandparents, wouldn't he be sure he was wearing that so-called green hat?
We can't wait two more days; she has to move in today.
He picked up the phone from the table and called Gu Yao.
Gu Yao was having lunch when he received Xian Mingyu's call. He thought Xian Mingyu was in a hurry to get the document he had.
I quickly put down my chopsticks and answered the phone.
"Hey, Mingyu, I'm still outside. I'll get that document later..."
Xian Mingyu interrupted Gu Yao first: [Forget about the documents for now. Go to the new courtyard right now and pack up all of Bai Xiaoruo's things and take them to the new house I had you buy a few days ago.]
"What? Bai..." Gu Yao glanced at Annie sitting across from him. He couldn't let Annie, that big mouth, know about this. Gu Yao lowered his voice, got up and walked out of the restaurant. "Mingyu, what's going on? Why are you in such a hurry to make her move out all of a sudden?"
[It's nothing, just do as I say... Have Aunt Qin help you pack it up and get it there before 4 PM today, then go pick her up from school.]
Gu Yao looked utterly dejected. It turned out that Xuan Mingyu's call wasn't about work, but about his little wife? He, the president's assistant, had been reduced to being that girl's driver.
"Okay, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Xian Mingyu felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders.
With Gu Yao picking up Bai Xiaoruo, at least his every move could be kept under surveillance.
I doubt she would actually dare to go and play with that Ji Ziqian.
Xian Mingyu kept telling himself: He didn't care about that little girl, he was just afraid that she would forget her place and her status as the young mistress of the Xian family, and that messing around with other men would cause him trouble. That's right, otherwise, he wouldn't bother with her so much.
***
The gossip about the love triangle between Ji Ziqian, Bai Xiaoruo, and Xuan Mingyu that occurred at the school gate this morning also reached Bai Xiaofu's ears.
When get out of class ended, a classmate showed her a secretly taken photo, and Bai Xiaofu immediately recognized Xuan Mingyu in the photo.
If she hadn't gone to Grandpa Xian's birthday banquet last night, she might still have thought that Bai Xiaoruo married an old man, and that her flirting with so many men was just because of her shameless nature—she couldn't stand being alone no matter where she was.
Upon learning that Bai Xiaoruo's husband was Xian Mingyu, Bai Xiaofu was shocked, and her hatred for Bai Xiaoruo deepened.
Why does that bitch get to live so well?!
She married such a handsome man, and he spoils her like a treasure.
Thinking about what happened last night, Bai Xiaofu still gritted her teeth. Her father, mother and she were all so badly hurt by Bai Xiaoruo last night. They lost all their image and face. They were thrown out like trash. Many people saw it on the street. It almost made the headlines. It was only after Bai Minglei went to great lengths and used a lot of connections that it was suppressed.
And today, that bitch is still restless. She's not satisfied with having a husband, and she even comes to seduce Ziqian. It's disgusting!
What love triangle? What fighting over Bai Xiaoruo? That bitch, what makes her worthy of Ziqian's affection?
If this weren't a school where she couldn't go too far, Bai Xiaofu would have really wanted to go to Bai Xiaoruo's classroom, slap her twice, and teach her a lesson so she'd know her place!
At lunchtime, Bai Xiaofu had no appetite for food and didn't want to go home. Sitting in her seat, she racked her brains trying to figure out how to deal with that bitch Bai Xiaoruo and make her get what she deserved.
Just then, Xiao Yaran came looking for her.
Normally, students from different grades are not allowed to enter other students' classrooms at will, but since it's after school and there are only a few people around, there's no need to be so strict.
"Senior Bai."
Seeing Xiao Ya Ran approach, Bai Xiao Fu's impatience quickly vanished, replaced by a look of grievance and distress. "Oh, Ya Ran, you're here... If you want to go out to eat, you should ask someone else. I'm not in the mood to eat right now."
“Senior Bai, I know about your troubles.” Xiao Yaran sat down in the chair next to Bai Xiaofu.
"Oh?" How did she know what I was thinking? Bai Xiaofu was a little puzzled.
"Look at this." Xiao Yaran opened her phone's photo album, flipped to a picture, and handed it to Bai Xiaofu.
"This is... a painting? Ya Ran, what does this mean? I'm not an art student, I'm not good at analyzing paintings."
The photo only showed a painting, which was quite well done, but Bai Xiaofu had no interest in appreciating it.
"Senior Bai, the purpose of showing you this painting isn't just for your appreciation. Look, what does the signature in the lower left corner say?"
"The signature?" Bai Xiaofu zoomed in on the photo and carefully examined the signature in the lower left corner. "Class B, Freshman Year... Bai Xiaoruo?! This, this is Bai Xiaoruo's painting?"
"That's right, it's her painting, but now it belongs to me."
"Ya Ran, what do you mean by this?" Bai Xiaoruo has loved drawing since she was a child, and she has created countless paintings. What can this painting prove? Bai Xiaofu is increasingly confused about Xiao Ya Ran's meaning.
