Chapter 218 Zhizhi, I Miss You



This woman is a key witness who can prove that Bai Qingze did not kill Wang Kang. She deliberately hid during the initial investigation, which is why she was overlooked.

The Wang family is also searching for her, as are the people behind the plot to frame Bai Qingze. Xiao Yuan personally took charge of the search for her safety.

The woman was the niece of Xiao Yuan's mother's friend. In order to give face to his mother's friend, Xiao Yuan did not refuse when the woman suggested that he personally escort her.

Xiao Yuan initially wanted to gain favor with the Bai family, but now he regrets it.

Xiao Yuan's words were merciless, and the woman's face turned extremely ugly. The two faced off for a long time before the woman finally moved aside slightly.

"You know, I'm not..."

"My mission is complete. As agreed, I will revive your family's failing business as long as you agree to testify. But don't expect anything else." Xiao Yuan's tone calmed down.

The woman nodded without speaking, and only slowly raised her head after Xiao Yuan's figure had completely disappeared.

Xiao Yuan stayed in his car for about half an hour, then took out his phone and found no messages from Bai Qingzhi. Disappointed, he put it back.

Xiao Yuan laid the chair flat, stretched out an arm across his face, and planned to rest like that for a while.

His men have already entered the hotel to protect the woman, so he's done with this.

At this moment, Bai Qingzhi was standing by the window looking at the location of Xiao Yuan's car. Long after she finished talking to him on the phone, Bai Qingzhi had someone check the woman's information.

The Bai family has a group of professionals on their payroll, so investigating this kind of thing is a piece of cake for them.

Although the above description was not very detailed, Bai Qingzhi discovered overlaps with her second brother's travel itinerary from the previous stage.

After a moment's thought, Bai Qingzhi guessed Xiao Yuan's purpose, but she was still angry because Xiao Yuan hadn't told her anything.

She had been observing Xiao Yuan's movements the whole time. After he got into the car, Bai Qingzhi couldn't stay awake any longer and went back to sleep in a daze.

She plans to confront Xiao Yuan about this again tomorrow!

But in her half-awake, half-asleep state, Bai Qingzhi suddenly heard a knock on the door. She got up groggily and listened carefully for a while before confirming that she wasn't dreaming.

At the same time, her phone rang. Bai Qingzhi picked it up and saw that it was Xiao Yuan.

"Zhizhi, open the door, I'm at the door." Xiao Yuan's voice came from the phone.

Bai Qingzhi thought he would quietly return to City A and pretend he had never been here.

"Why are you here?" Bai Qingzhi's surprise was genuine.

"Zhizhi, I missed you." Xiao Yuan's tone carried a rare hint of coquetry.

The moment Bai Qingzhi opened the door, Xiao Yuan walked in, casually tossed his suit jacket in, and then suddenly hugged her tightly.

"You flew all the way from City A in the middle of the night just to say this to me?" Bai Qingzhi hugged him back and asked.

"I feel restless if I can't see you. I couldn't wait a moment longer, so I flew here directly." Xiao Yuan's tone was completely truthful.

Bai Qingzhi's lips curled up slightly. If she hadn't known what was going on, she would have really been fooled by him!

Bai Qingzhi took a deep breath and sniffed Xiao Yuan intently with her little nose.

"But why do I smell a woman's perfume on you?" Bai Qingzhi said, taking a step back and asking with a big smile.

Xiao Yuan's expression cracked slightly, but it returned to normal in just two or three seconds.

"You wouldn't actually be having an affair with another woman, would you?" Bai Qingzhi's expression became more serious.

"Of course not, never in this lifetime." Xiao Yuan said this with utmost sincerity.

Bai Qingzhi looked into his eyes and knew that what he said was true.

"Of course I believe you!" Bai Qingzhi cupped Xiao Yuan's face in her hands and smiled brightly.

The two smiled at each other, and Xiao Yuan could no longer resist, so he lowered his head and kissed her.

The two fell asleep in each other's arms. The next day, Bai Qingzhi did not go to the film set. After getting up, the two went directly to the hotel's own restaurant.

However, there, Bai Qingzhi saw the woman who had come in with Xiao Yuan yesterday.

Xiao Yuan noticed it as well, but he didn't look at it for long, as if he were looking at a stranger, and looked away after just one glance.

She focused on taking care of Bai Qingzhi as she ate breakfast, carefully placing the dried xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) between her fingers.

The woman sat at the table with the same food on it, and even sat in the same position as Bai Qingzhi.

Every time Xiao Yuan served food to Bai Qingzhi, the woman would also pick up food from her own table and stuff it into her mouth, her eyes secretly watching the two of them.

At first, Bai Qingzhi didn't pay attention, but seeing the woman's behavior, she suddenly felt disgusted.

Suddenly losing her appetite, Bai Qingzhi refused the food Xiao Yuan offered her and suggested leaving with a smile.

The woman next to them also put down her chopsticks and walked towards their seats just as the two were about to leave.

"May I take a picture with you two?" The woman asked with a smile, her eyes fixed on Bai Qingzhi, but her gaze never left Xiao Yuan.

"I don't like taking pictures." Bai Qingzhi really couldn't stand it anymore. She supported other women pursuing Xiao Yuan, but couldn't they at least not disgust her as well?

The woman seemed unconcerned and continued:

"I thought you two were a handsome man and a beautiful woman, so..."

"No need, we don't have the habit of taking pictures with strangers." Xiao Yuan was already displeased with the woman's actions, and he coldly refused, taking Bai Qingzhi's hand.

The woman's face turned extremely ugly as she looked down at their tightly clasped hands.

Clenching her teeth, the woman's eyes revealed a coldness.

The woman stepped aside and watched the two figures leave, a mad glint in her eyes.

She took a liking to Xiao Yuan from the first moment she saw him, and naturally knew that he had a girlfriend.

But deep down she believed that Bai Qingzhi was no match for her, so she was determined to get Xiao Yuan!

Even if she couldn't have her, she didn't want Bai Qingzhi to have an easy time.

Moreover, she was now Xiao Yuan's key witness, and the woman felt that what Xiao Yuan had said to her yesterday was just to scare her.

Knowing that Xiao Yuan had come to the city, a business partner happened to have a contract to sign, so he drove to the other party's company in the afternoon.

Bai Qingzhi took a nap at noon. When she opened her eyes, Xiao Yuan hadn't returned yet. She ate something casually and then stayed in her bedroom watching TV series.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Bai Qingzhi walked to the door and looked through the peephole, and saw that the woman from that morning was standing at the door.

There are plenty of news stories about love turning into hate, and Bai Qingzhi wouldn't be foolish enough to open the door for the other party.

She glanced at him once and then decisively turned around and snuggled back into bed. She'd talk to Xiao Yuan when he got back.

The woman knocked on the door for a long time, and she naturally knew that Bai Qingzhi was inside. In the end, unable to open the door, she could only leave angrily.
