Under the moonlight, Bai Qingzhi's face was clearly visible.
Behind them was the rippling river, which Xiao Yuan found breathtakingly beautiful.
I took out my phone and snapped a picture of the scene, then stared at it for a long time.
When Bai Qingzhi returned to the Bai family, it was already past midnight. Xiao Yuan held her hand reluctantly.
"Give me a kiss, or I won't be able to sleep all night," Xiao Yuan said, pointing to his cheek.
Bai Qingzhi looked at this childlike man and smiled helplessly, then stood on tiptoe and kissed him directly on the lips.
"Will you be able to fall asleep now?" Bai Qingzhi asked playfully.
Xiao Yuan felt his breath catch in his throat, then pulled the other person into his arms and kissed him again without hesitation.
A few minutes later, he released the panting Bai Qingzhi and continued speaking under the resentful gaze of the person opposite him:
"Now I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep at night even more!"
In return, he received a punch from the other party.
The car had been parked at the entrance for a long time without anyone going in, so the Bai family naturally came out to check. Bai Qingzhi was afraid of being discovered what had just happened, so she only glared at Xiao Yuan before running away.
Watching Bai Qingzhi's retreating figure, Xiao Yuan's face remained filled with a doting smile. Then he sighed and muttered to himself:
"Ugh! I just can't sleep at all."
The plan was agreed upon by everyone as early as yesterday.
Yu He wanted Mo Yunze to get rid of Bai Qinghuan, so let's give him that opportunity.
At Mo Yunze's suggestion, Yu He readily agreed to drug Bai Qinghuan. This drug was no ordinary drug; it was a secret medicine that Yu He had obtained from an unknown source.
Using it will not kill you; it will only make your body age day by day. The symptoms are the same as those of international medical problems, and no one would associate it with poisoning.
People like them are very vigilant, as can be seen from Xiao Yuan refusing alcohol and Bai Qinghuai bringing his own wine cup.
So Bai Qingzhi went there today with the intention of drugging her sister.
Mo Yunze had already switched the bottle of water at the beginning, but the act had to continue.
When Bai Qingzhi returned home, the drug test results were already in. To her surprise, the drug contained the ashes of the patients!
"It seems there's still a lot to discover about Yu He!" Bai Qinghuai said coldly, looking at the bottle of clear, seemingly pure water in front of him.
"Should we call the police?" Bai Qingzhi asked back.
Bai Qinghuai gave a cold laugh.
Call the police? How long would the sentence be? Wouldn't that be too lenient on him?
Since he wants his younger sister to have this kind of thing, wouldn't it be too easy for him if he didn't get to try it himself?
He picked up the phone and contacted someone, and soon someone came to the Bai family's house and took the bottle of water away.
"This...isn't this Yu He's assistant?!" Bai Qingzhi's eyes widened in surprise.
She remembered that this person had been plotting against her with Yu He not long ago.
"Everyone has weaknesses, it's just that this one is a bit tougher to crack," Bai Qinghuai shrugged and replied nonchalantly.
Does Xiao Yuan know?
Bai Qingzhi coughed awkwardly upon hearing her sister's question, then seemed reluctant to admit it, and said:
"He's the one who did it."
He tried for a long time to bribe this assistant, using both his looks and money, but unfortunately the assistant was unmoved.
In the end, Xiao Yuan couldn't stand it anymore and resolved the issue in just one visit. When Xiao Yuan later inquired about the method used, he only said it was due to Xiao Yuan's personal charisma.
But he couldn't possibly believe that.
Meanwhile, Yu He's assistant had returned to his residence. Every night, Yu He had the habit of getting up to drink a glass of warm water, and this was naturally done by his assistant.
The two were staying in a suite, with only a dim yellow light on outside. The assistant tiptoed to prepare warm water, and then struggled on his face.
Yu He treated him quite well; if he had no other choice, he truly wouldn't want to betray him.
But when the assistant thought about how terrifying that man was, he ultimately chickened out.
The assistant took out a water bottle, poured some water into a glass, took a few deep breaths, and then carried the glass into the bedroom.
After watching Yu He finish the water, the assistant breathed a sigh of relief and left the bedroom.
The following days seemed to have truly returned to normal, and Yu He and Xiao Yuan's cooperation proceeded in an orderly manner.
On the tenth day, news came back that Bai Qinghuan had gone to the hospital, apparently because she had a health problem.
Yu He sat in his office, beaming with joy, but after taking just one puff of his cigar, he started coughing uncontrollably.
"Boss, you've been staying up too late lately. You need to take care of yourself." The assistant thoughtfully handed over a glass of water.
Yu He took a sip of saliva, suppressed his urge, and then stubbed out his cigar before replying:
"Yes, I'm getting old, I can't stay up late anymore."
The assistant didn't answer again, but a glint flashed in his eyes.
Yu He seemed to be in a good mood, and stood up to rub his aching lower back.
"Miss Bai is sick, shouldn't we go and visit her?"
Without waiting for his assistant's reply, he chuckled and walked towards the door, supporting his back.
"I need to get checked out when I have time. As people get older, their arms and legs start to have problems!"
When the two arrived, Bai Qinghuan had already been admitted to the hospital. She was pale and lay on the bed without saying a word.
Mr. and Mrs. Bai stood anxiously to one side.
After personally confirming that Bai Qinghuan's symptoms were not a problem, Yu He took his leave. Now that the company building had begun construction, he should go and take a look.
But when he arrived, he found that there were several groups of people at the scene, including Mr. Bai's niece.
"I was just about to call you when you arrived," Bai Qingzhi greeted him with a smile.
