Only after Bai Qingzhi's car was completely out of sight did she turn her head, hesitate for a long time, and then ask in a low voice:
"Have I seen him before?" Otherwise, how could I feel a strange warmth rising in my heart as soon as I saw him?
“Zhizhi, actually, you are my wife.” Xiao Yuan answered earnestly.
He hadn't originally planned to tell Bai Qingzhi so soon, fearing she wouldn't be able to accept it, but now he'd changed his mind.
As expected, Bai Qingzhi seemed frightened. Xiao Yuan pulled her into his arms with a touch of tenderness, then stroked her hair and continued speaking:
"Your name is Bai Qingzhi. Your favorite flower is the rose, your favorite fruit is the orange, your favorite color is purple, your greatest hobby is jewelry design, and your favorite food is Hunan cuisine." Xiao Yuan said each word carefully, his tone full of affection.
Bai Qingzhi felt that the more the other person spoke, the more her heart pounded uncontrollably.
"I...I..."
Seeing Bai Qingzhi's somewhat flustered expression, Xiao Yuan smiled indulgently, then spoke seriously:
"I know you can't process this in a short time, but I'm telling you this now so that you won't have any regrets."
Bai Qingzhi frowned in confusion, but she didn't have much doubt about what the other person said.
However, along with the belief, a sense of unease also arose.
She couldn't understand the regret Xiao Yuan spoke of, and even when she asked him, he didn't answer.
It wasn't until they arrived at the airport and saw the private jet parked there that Xiao Yuan saw her off onto the plane. As he stopped and was about to turn around, she suddenly realized what had happened.
He wants to go back.
Bai Qingzhi reached out and grabbed Xiao Yuan's clothes with some fear, her heart pounding wildly.
"Good girl, I'll go bring Qinghuai back." Xiao Yuan gently stroked Bai Qingzhi's hair as he spoke.
Having stayed in the En family for so long, Bai Qingzhi had developed a vague understanding of their businesses. Therefore, upon hearing Xiao Yuan's words, she felt a great sense of unease.
"Zhizhi, I can't leave Qinghuai there no matter what. If something happens to him, it will be a rift between you and us that can never be repaired." Xiao Yuan kissed Bai Qingzhi's forehead affectionately.
As Bai Qingzhi listened to his words, the strength in her grip on his sleeve gradually decreased until it finally fell to her sides.
"Then you should come back soon." Bai Qingzhi looked up, her eyes reddening.
Xiao Yuan felt as if his heart had been struck by something, and without thinking, he kissed the other person on the cheek.
"When I get back, our wedding won't be held yet." With that, she turned and left without looking back.
He was afraid that if he looked at Bai Qingzhi again, he would be unable to resist staying.
As the plane gradually took off, Xiao Yuan looked back at the sky after a long while.
The plane was full of his own people, so Xiao Yuan wasn't worried about Zhizhi getting into trouble. Moreover, Bai Qingze had also received the news and was waiting at the airport.
As long as Zhizhi is born, the Bai family will take her home safely, so Xiao Yuan is not worried at all.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yuan's doting expression gradually gave way to ruthlessness. His subordinate, who had been waiting by his side, immediately sent a message into the walkie-talkie upon receiving his instructions.
At this moment, Enzhe realized that someone was deliberately trying to get rid of him, and he immediately recalled the scene of Xiao Yuan coming to say goodbye that night.
Knowing something was wrong, Enzhe hurriedly told the driver to head towards the manor.
Sure enough, as soon as I entered, I sensed something was wrong. It was quiet, and none of the patrolmen made a sound.
With a wave of his hand, the people behind him immediately scattered, and a few minutes later they came running back, panting.
The report stated that unconscious patrol personnel were found throughout the manor.
Enzhe's eyes instantly darkened. He rushed into the house and headed straight for Bai Qingzhi's room.
"Go check if Xiao Yuan is still there," Enzhe instructed his subordinates hurriedly.
Even though he already had the answer in his heart, he still wanted to confirm it one more time.
Pushing open Bai Qingzhi's door, the room was dark and so quiet you couldn't even hear breathing.
But the faint smell of blood at the tip of his nose made Enzhe frown in confusion.
He snapped the light on, and when he saw what was inside, Enzhe gasped in shock.
Bai Qingzhi had a dagger stuck in her heart, and her body was covered in bright red blood. She had already stopped breathing and lay on the ground with a painful expression.
His head buzzed, and a huge sense of panic rose in Enzhe's heart.
Enzhe slowly approached Bai Qingzhi and placed his trembling hand under her nose. Sure enough, there was no sign of life.
At this moment, the subordinate who was sent to check if Xiao Yuan was there returned. He paused after seeing the scene in the room, but still lowered his head and replied that Xiao Yuan had left.
Enzhe clenched his fists, his teeth chattering, and he felt he was having difficulty breathing and couldn't even utter a word.
Trembling, he picked up Bai Qingzhi's body, walked down the stairs step by step, and then knelt down to place her in the hall.
"Find it for me!" Enzhe's voice was filled with heart-wrenching pain, and his eyes were slightly red.
The security personnel who had fainted had woken up, and one by one, realizing their mistake, they knelt on the ground.
"We'll talk about your punishment later. Now, find Xiao Yuan for me!" Enzhe closed his eyes to calm himself down for a while, then took a deep breath and spoke.
His subordinates filed out, and Enzhe looked at Bai Qingzhi's corpse and slowly reached out to touch her face.
Just then, a subordinate ran in, his phone already connected.
"Boss, it's Xiao Yuan's." The subordinate said this with some fear.
Hearing that Xiao Yuan still dared to call, Enzhe's anger had reached its breaking point, but he ultimately suppressed his anger and took the phone.
However, the veins on the back of his hand holding the phone were bulging.
"You've got some nerve," Enzhe said through gritted teeth.
Xiao Yuan across from him laughed, then spoke, word by word:
"You saw it? To be honest, I wanted to do it the moment I saw that woman's face."
"I can't tolerate her living around you with such a childish face, especially since she's carefree like a fool every day. That's the greatest insult to childishness!" Xiao Yuan's tone was exceptionally serious.
Enzhe's teeth were grinding together, and he almost couldn't help but tell him the truth.
"It seems your feelings for Bai Qingzhi are nothing more than this; you actually managed to harm her face." Enzhe tried to calm himself down.
"I've said it before, her face is an insult to Zhizhi." Xiao Yuan's tone was cold, devoid of any emotion.
While the two were on the phone, Enzhe's people had already located Xiao Yuan's position.
When Enzhe found out, his eyes darkened. He ordered Bai Qingzhi's body to be properly placed, then stood up and looked out at the dark night sky.
At the same time, Xiao Yuan seemed to sense something and looked towards the location of the manor.
