Looking at the name on his phone, Xiao Yuan almost cursed out loud.
The name Bai Qinghuai was flashing enthusiastically on the incoming call screen.
"What is it?" Xiao Yuan asked through gritted teeth.
Bai Qinghuai, speaking from the opposite side, sounded languid, as if he couldn't detect Xiao Yuan's anger at all.
“You’ve been inside for almost twenty minutes. It’s too late to be in a girl’s room. That’s impolite.” Bai Qinghuai was checking his watch.
Xiao Yuan was so angry he laughed.
"No!" Xiao Yuan's goal had not yet been achieved. If he were to leave like this today, he would die with regrets.
“Then I wouldn’t mind calling Qingzhi and having her kick you out.” Bai Qinghuai’s tone was completely calm.
Xiao Yuan took a few deep breaths to calm his agitation, and only told Bai Qinghuai sternly not to fall into his hands one day.
With a helpless sigh, Xiao Yuan hung up the phone and looked at Bai Qingzhi, saying:
"I can't stay any longer. If it's discovered, all your efforts will be in vain."
Bai Qingzhi nodded. Although she was a little reluctant, she had important business to attend to now.
After putting on his hat and leaving, Xiao Yuan couldn't shake off the pent-up frustration in his heart.
He drove straight to Bai Qinghuai's apartment, as far as he knew, Bai Qinghuai hadn't gone home tonight.
He had the password to Bai Qinghuai's apartment, so when the lights were off, Xiao Yuan sneaked in.
Bai Qinghuai was sleeping in bed at this time, with only a dim bedside lamp lit in the bedroom.
Xiao Yuan gave a sinister smile, then decisively threw all of Bai Qinghuai's clothes out of the wardrobe.
This was originally Bai Qinghuai's temporary residence. He didn't have many clothes, and Xiao Yuan even took his phone before leaving.
And left a note: You can choose to go out naked.
Xiao Yuan felt a little better after doing all this. For Bai Qinghuai, that workaholic, being late for work was worse than being killed.
Bai Qingzhi's face appeared in his mind again, and Xiao Yuan smiled unconsciously.
Meanwhile, Bai Qingzhi, whom he was thinking about, was sitting blankly on the sofa, her face flushed.
When she is with Xiao Yuan, she is always unconsciously drawn to him, and when she gets close to him, her rationality seems to run away from home.
Why did you suddenly want to kiss me?
Because she was too excited, Bai Qingzhi went to bed late, and when she opened her eyes the next day, she was about to be late.
I hurriedly packed my things, and luckily the place I rented was close to the company, so I got there in just a few minutes.
But Bai Qingzhi immediately sensed something was off about the atmosphere inside the company as soon as she entered.
Her colleagues looked at her with a hint of sympathy in their eyes.
Before he could figure out what was going on, he saw Liu Chenghan and a woman walk out from inside, and he recognized the woman.
Upon seeing Bai Qinghuai, the woman's expression immediately turned cold, and her eyes were filled with disdain.
"Brother Han, why does your company hire just anyone?" Hao Ni asked, clinging to Liu Chenghan's arm in a coquettish tone.
"I didn't even graduate from university, how could I possibly get in? Of course, I got in through connections and backdoors," Bai Qingzhi replied with a smile.
You little brat, I'll disgust you to death.
Sure enough, Hao Ni frowned upon hearing this answer, her eyes filled with accusation as she looked at Liu Chenghan.
"Xiao Ni, be good." Liu Chenghan's face also darkened, and he pulled Hao Ni's hand down with a little force.
Bai Qingzhi also recognized the woman's identity as Hao Yan's daughter.
She's the same woman I met when I bought a lighter for Xiao Yuan last time.
A few days ago, Bai Qingzhi accidentally saw that Liu Chenghan had a lighter in his hand, the same one she hadn't been able to buy that day. At first, she thought it was a coincidence, but now it seems that Hao Ni may have been deliberately targeting her that day.
"Brother Han, you promised me a long time ago that you would go out with me. Are you planning to go back on your word?" Hao Ni grabbed Liu Chenghan's arm again and shook it as she spoke.
Bai Qingzhi found a seat and sat down, silently watching the melodramatic scene unfold before her.
"Xiao Ni, have you forgotten what I said in the room just now?" Liu Chenghan barely suppressed his inner rage and spoke in a low voice.
Hao Ni felt extremely wronged, and her eyes slowly reddened.
But Liu Chenghan seemed not to see it, and turned to Bai Qingzhi immediately after saying that.
"Qingzhi, have you had breakfast yet? I still have some left."
The speed at which they changed their expressions was incredibly fast.
Hao Ni glared fiercely at Bai Qingzhi, wishing she could tear her apart with her eyes.
Bai Qingzhi raised an eyebrow slightly. Was Liu Chenghan doing this on purpose? Was he trying to provoke her?
But that's just right.
“Okay, I’m a little hungry. After we eat, we can go to Mr. Xiao’s place and deliver the plan we finalized yesterday.” Bai Qingzhi smiled sweetly.
The following year, Hao Ni's eyes became even more resentful.
Liu Chenghan somewhat forcefully saw Hao Ni out, and Bai Qingzhi ate a few bites before taking the documents and leaving the company.
Sure enough, I sensed someone following me on the way.
Hao Ni, who was following Bai Qingzhi, lost her at a turn. Just as he was frowning, Bai Qingzhi's voice suddenly came from behind.
"I wonder what Miss Hao wants to do?"
Hao Ni was startled and immediately turned around to glare fiercely at Bai Qingzhi.
"I'm warning you to stay away from Brother Han, or I won't hesitate to use some special methods."
Her eyes were full of malice, and she spoke with remarkable fluency, as if she had threatened him countless times before.
“I know your current situation. You’re an orphan and have been kicked out of the Bai family. What do you have to compare with me? The wisest choice is to get as far away as possible.”
“I’m afraid Miss Hao has misunderstood something. It’s not me who’s pestering your Brother Han, but him who’s pursuing me, and I… am considering whether or not to accept?” Bai Qingzhi kept smiling, not taking the other party’s threat to heart at all.
This sentence instantly broke Hao Ni's defenses.
"Brother Han will never like you, don't flatter yourself!"
"But he confessed his feelings to me! He even promised that he would take care of me even if the Bai family were gone. Otherwise, how do you think I've managed to live so well with my bank cards frozen?" Bai Qingzhi's laughter grew even wider.
But this directly pierced Hao Ni's eyes.
A surge of malice rose within Hao Ni, and she suddenly smiled, deliberately lowering her voice as she said:
"Let me tell you, Brother Han could never like you. You're just a pawn!"
Bai Qingzhi's eyes flickered.
"You're just jealous, trying to scare me. Since you're so afraid, then I'm really going to be with Liu Chenghan."
Hao Ni's smile froze instantly, and she gritted her teeth, staring intently at Bai Qingzhi.
"Only someone as muddle-headed as you would believe that. The day Brother Han achieves his goal will be the day you die!"
Having obtained the answer she wanted, Bai Qingzhi stopped provoking Hao Ni. She believed that even if Hao Ni knew some things, it probably wouldn't be too much.
It's very likely that she didn't know any of this information. Otherwise, given her level of intelligence, if Liu Chenghan told her the inside story, wouldn't he be telling everyone?
