Bai Qingze had already run to the restaurant entrance when he suddenly turned back.
"Don't waste the food." After saying this, Bai Qingze picked up the food and ran away again.
Xiao Yuan glared at him through gritted teeth, thinking bitterly to himself:
"Eat, eat, eat! You'd sell me out and still want to eat!"
Bai Qingzhi turned her head and stared at Xiao Yuan, causing him to slowly lower his head.
"What else would you like to eat? I..." Xiao Yuan tried to change the subject.
"Was it you who gave my second brother the idea?" Bai Qingzhi interrupted him and asked.
Xiao Yuan knew he couldn't hide it from Bai Qingze any longer, so he cursed Bai Qingze in his heart once more before nodding and admitting it.
"I saw him suffering so much every day," Xiao Yuan said, his voice growing softer as he spoke.
"Did you use it on me before?" Bai Qingzhi jumped to a topic so quickly that Xiao Yuan couldn't keep up for a moment.
But he reacted quickly and extended two fingers.
"Absolutely not! I swear, if I had ever used it..."
Before he could finish speaking, Bai Qingzhi silenced him with a kiss.
"What nonsense are you spouting every day!" Bai Qingzhi glared at him, her voice sweet and charming.
Xiao Yuan felt a sudden urge to hug Zhizhi.
Bai Qingzhi had her back to the kitchen, while Xiao Yuan stood opposite her.
Just as Xiao Yuan's phone was about to wrap around her waist, the restaurant's sliding door was suddenly pulled open.
Xiao Yuan's hand reached through the stove and picked up a small bottle of soy sauce.
However, when he turned around, he glared fiercely at the person who came in.
"Was everything alright when I arrived?" Bai Qinghuai, dressed in a suit and tie, asked from the doorway.
Bai Qingzhi shook her head, walked over to him, and looked him up and down.
"Big brother, you never go into the kitchen, did the sun rise in the west today?" Bai Qingzhi leaned forward and asked jokingly.
A hint of unease flashed across Bai Qinghuai's face, but it disappeared in an instant.
"I need to speak with Xiao Yuan about something." Bai Qinghuai nodded to Xiao Yuan.
Bai Qingzhi's eyes darted back and forth between the two of them several times, but both of them remained calm, and she couldn't discern anything from them.
"Alright, you two chat then." Bai Qingzhi had finished eating. After saying goodbye to the two of them, she went back to her room.
Bai Qinghuai looked around, but ultimately led Xiao Yuan into the study.
Seeing that he was rambling on without specifying what he was talking about, Xiao Yuan could only ask first:
"What's wrong? Can't you handle your fiancée?"
For the first time, Bai Qinghuai showed a hint of embarrassment.
"Xiaoxiao seems angry." Bai Qinghuai touched his nose, his voice not loud.
A smile appeared in Xiao Yuan's eyes.
"What exactly happened?" Xiao Yuan was also curious and really wanted to know how a woman with Bai Qinghuai's fiancée's personality could be provoked by him.
"That day I went to the Liu family banquet, and someone took a picture of me and posted it online, which Xiaoxiao saw." It was already quite an achievement for Bai Qinghuai to be able to explain even one sentence.
Xiao Yuan remembered that it was a gossip media outlet that had told Bai Qinghuai to drink alcohol and then go to a nearby hotel instead of going home.
A woman he knew was also staying there that day. The two met one after the other and stood together talking for a long time. Anyone who saw this would have thought a lot.
In particular, their social statuses are quite well-matched.
"I remember that the Bagua diagram was taken down very quickly." It only existed for about a few minutes.
"Yes, it was just a coincidence that we were seen." Bai Qinghuai frowned, looking somewhat annoyed.
"So, you just wanted to talk to me about this?" Xiao Yuan had already guessed Bai Qinghuai's purpose in contacting him.
Upon hearing Xiao Yuan's words, Bai Qinghuai paused for a moment before speaking:
"I'm doing this because you have experience, and besides, wasn't Qingze's method your idea?"
Xiao Yuan's face darkened when he heard the second half of the sentence.
It's common knowledge now that he's trying to find solutions for others.
Seeing Xiao Yuan's expression, Bai Qinghuai also stopped talking, pondering what to say next.
"I have no experience whatsoever. You should find someone else to handle this," Xiao Yuan said, then stood up and prepared to leave.
Bai Qinghuai panicked a little and stood up as well.
"Don't you want to marry Qingzhi soon?" The tone was clearly threatening.
Xiao Yuan paused, took a deep breath, and his face instantly broke into a smile.
"Brother, what are you saying? I'm more than happy to help you!" After saying that, he turned around and walked back.
Bai Qinghuai revealed a smug smile and deliberately sighed.
"You know me. I'm not the kind of person who likes to threaten others, but there are some people... there's just no way around it." He then shook his head slightly.
Xiao Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, but the smile on his face remained unchanged.
"Tell me, what do you want to do?"
Now that their positions have been reversed, Bai Qinghuai is no longer as hesitant as he was at the beginning.
Xiao Yuan sneered at his arrogant appearance, then a glint flashed in his eyes as if he had thought of something.
"Why don't you go find her directly?" Xiao Yuan said seriously as he sat down opposite Bai Qinghuai.
"Aren't women all emotional? She's just angry that you're having an affair with another woman. Going to explain in person shows that you're very sincere."
Bai Qinghuai fell into deep thought, considering the possibility of going there.
The company is very busy right now; he has a lot to do every day and can't leave at all.
Feeling a bit tired, Bai Qinghuai rubbed his forehead, racking his brains but unable to come up with a good solution.
Xiao Yuan naturally noticed it.
"Or you could call her and send her a video."
Bai Qinghuai didn't answer, and Xiao Yuan raised an eyebrow, guessing that he probably wouldn't accept the answer from that side.
A hint of joy flashed in Xiao Yuan's eyes as he continued:
"People are most likely to meet someone they can entrust their lives to when they are disappointed, and even if that person is slightly worse, they will ignore it under the influence of psychological suggestion."
Bai Qinghuai's expression turned somewhat unpleasant afterward.
But Xiao Yuan didn't stop talking. He continued to exaggerate, basically saying that if he didn't do something, Qi Xiaoxiao might run off with someone else.
Bai Qinghuai remained silent for a few minutes before finally standing up, hurriedly thanking him, and leaving.
Soon, the sound of a car starting up came from downstairs.
Suddenly, the phone rang; there was a company matter that required him to return home.
It was completely dark outside by then. Xiao Yuan hung up the phone and sighed helplessly.
"As expected, being a CEO isn't so easy!"
The idea of quickly training Xiao Yangjing became even stronger in her mind.
Before leaving, he went to Bai Qingzhi's bedroom to take one last look at her, and left the Bai family with lingering reluctance, turning back every few steps.
By the time the others received the message, Bai Qinghuai had already left City A. However, he encountered an unexpected person as soon as his plane landed.
The woman who was photographed that day while staying at the same hotel as him.
The two families had a business partnership, and the woman herself was quite capable, managing half of her family's company, so Bai Qinghuai admired her quite a bit.
After talking with the other party, Bai Qinghuai learned that the other party's company was planning to expand into this city.
