Xiao Yuan returned an hour later, but before he arrived, he heard his men report that the woman had gone to Zhizhi's room that day.
Xiao Yuan felt nauseous and decided to explain the whole story to Zhizhi when he got back.
To avoid making it seem like I've done something shameful.
However, before he could even enter the door, he was stopped by the woman.
The woman today had clearly dressed up to wait for him, and the strong scent of perfume made him dizzy.
"Xiao Yuan, if you still want me to testify, come and keep me company tonight!" The woman decided to take a gamble.
"If you're sick, go see a doctor. Don't disgust me like this." Xiao Yuan didn't even give her a second glance.
The woman felt her heart grow colder and colder, biting her lip as her eyes gradually welled up with tears.
"Can't you really give me a chance? I'm willing to do anything for you, even be a mistress. As long as you're with me, I promise I won't let Bai Qingzhi know!" The woman tried to grab Xiao Yuan's hand, but he dodged her.
"You're proud of knowing you're a mistress? Besides, if I agreed to have a mistress, would you even be in the running?" Xiao Yuan's brows were now completely furrowed.
He kept glancing at his watch.
It's already afternoon; I wonder if Zhizhi has eaten yet.
The woman realized that Xiao Yuan was completely unyielding, and in the end, she had no choice but to give up.
But this is only on the surface; in secret, a decision has already been made.
After a few glances, the woman changed the subject and hurriedly told Xiao Yuan before he left that Xiao's mother wanted to speak with him.
Xiao Yuan nodded impatiently, walked to a quiet spot, took out his phone, and dialed his mother's number.
Seeing that Xiao Yuan was busy making a phone call, the woman turned around and ran upstairs.
More than ten minutes ago, Xiao Yuan sent a message to Bai Qingzhi saying that he had arrived downstairs. Now, when she suddenly heard the knocking on the door, she assumed that Xiao Yuan had returned.
She ran excitedly to open the door, but when she saw the woman outside, Bai Qingzhi immediately felt uneasy.
"Miss Bai, I have something to say to you." The woman was relatively calm, and Bai Qingzhi quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
She was genuinely afraid that the other person would hold a grudge and suddenly stab her twice.
"Miss, do you know me?" Bai Qingzhi naturally wouldn't say that she had already thoroughly investigated her background.
The woman smiled and replied:
"Miss Bai naturally wouldn't know me. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Wang Yuanyuan, and I am the niece of Xiao Yuan's mother's friend."
“Then the relationship isn’t exactly close.” Bai Qingzhi said seriously.
The woman's expression froze for a moment; she really wanted to tear Bai Qingzhi's mouth apart.
But Xiao Yuan should be back soon, she doesn't have that much time right now.
"Actually, Xiao Yuan arrived yesterday and stayed with me at the hotel the whole time. He stayed with me until late at night before leaving." The woman's words were unclear.
Bai Qingzhi frowned. Although she knew the truth was not what the woman said, she still subconsciously felt disgusted.
She originally wanted to refute him directly, but then she suddenly remembered that this was a good opportunity to teach Xiao Yuan a lesson, so that he wouldn't always keep quiet about everything.
"Do you think I would believe you?" Bai Qingzhi asked without changing her expression.
The woman's smile widened as she took out her phone and showed the photos inside.
It's obvious that Xiao Yuan is in all of these pictures, but she took them when he wasn't looking.
"This is when Xiao Yuan accompanied me in City A. This is us on the plane. This is in the car. And this is in the hotel." She even showed a hint of shyness at the end.
At first, Bai Qingzhi felt a little nauseous, but by the end, she suddenly felt that the woman was really pitiful.
Seeing that Bai Qingzhi did not speak, Wang Yuanyuan continued:
"But you don't need to worry too much. After all, which man doesn't have affairs? Don't worry, it was just a fleeting affair between him and me. He still loves you in his heart."
At this point, the woman revealed a hint of bitterness.
Bai Qingzhi mentally cursed, "This person is really shameless! I haven't even said anything yet and she's already acting all wronged."
"I don't believe it's true." But her act wasn't over yet, so Bai Qingzhi could only force herself to retort in a low voice with a bitter face.
"I came here today just to tell you not to overthink it; Xiao Yuan still cares about you." After saying that, seeing that it was almost time, he hurriedly left.
Bai Qingzhi rolled her eyes, then caught a glimpse of Xiao Yuan coming up from the elevator.
She quickly closed the door, then rubbed her eyes until they were red, and then moistened them with water.
When Xiao Yuan came in, he saw Bai Qingzhi sitting by the window with her back to him. Even when he called her, Bai Qingzhi did not respond.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yuan put the clothes aside and walked over.
Reaching out to support her shoulder, Xiao Yuan gently turned Bai Qingzhi around. In just one glance, Xiao Yuan panicked.
Zhizhi's eyes were red, and there were still tear stains on her face.
Her eyes were calm and undisturbed when she looked at him. Xiao Yuan squatted down and took Bai Qingzhi's hand.
Bai Qingzhi wanted to pull back, but failed several times. She couldn't help but laugh to herself, but she still had to control herself.
Just as she was about to smile, Bai Qingzhi lowered her head, but to Xiao Yuan, this scene appeared as Bai Qingzhi being heartbroken.
Suddenly remembering what his subordinate had just told him—that Wang Yuanyuan had been talking to Zhizhi for a long time while he was on the phone—Xiao Yuan immediately guessed what had happened.
A surge of anger rose within him, and he abruptly stood up to go find Wang Yuanyuan, but as soon as he let go of Bai Qingzhi's hand, the other woman raised her head.
"Are you going to see her again?" Bai Qingzhi's voice was choked with sobs.
Xiao Yuan's steps abruptly halted on the spot.
Turning around, Xiao Yuan knelt on one knee without hesitation and solemnly extended three fingers.
"I, Xiao Yuan, swear to the heavens that if I have done anything to wrong Zhizhi, I am willing to die a horrible death, have my company go bankrupt, and if I am lucky enough to survive, I will suffer from illness every day for the rest of my life, living a life worse than death!"
Bai Qingzhi tried to cover his mouth with her hand, but Xiao Yuan stopped her.
Their eyes met, and Xiao Yuan took Bai Qingzhi's hand again.
"Zhizhi, let me explain, okay?"
Bai Qingzhi's original purpose was to scare Xiao Yuan so that he wouldn't keep everything from her in the future. Now that she had achieved her goal, she wouldn't stop him from speaking.
Seeing Bai Qingzhi nod obediently, Xiao Yuan felt even more guilty.
Having recounted the whole incident in the shortest possible terms, Xiao Yuan felt nothing but deep regret.
Why should I get involved in this mess? I should just let Bai Qingze handle the witness testimonies!
Besides, my mom is really something. She always manages to make a bunch of friends, which results in a whole bunch of troublemakers!
This time, Zhizhi didn't hold it against him, but what if she does next time? Then he really won't have a chance to explain!
