Chapter 37.
As the location of the school trip was finalized, the students in Qian Yirong's class who first determined the location found that originally each class had chosen a different location for the school trip, but this time, their grade basically chose the seaside as the location for this school trip.
After some well-informed people discussed it, their attention fell on Xu Baiqing. Mu Zexuan did not mention her specially. It was said that when she was locked up in the equipment room of the gymnasium, President Shen Tianxing also helped to find someone.
If it was just because of Mu Zexuan, then there was something wrong with Shen Tianxing's actions afterwards. For example, when notifying Bai Jingqiu of her punishment, it could have been announced by other members of the student union, but Shen Tianxing came in person.
Soon, the other students of Shengde High School tacitly put Xu Baiqing on the list of people who must not be provoked, and ranked him at the top. Qian Yirong, who was always stuck by Xu Baiqing, and those who were originally ready to make some moves because she moved out of the Qian family, all stopped temporarily.
Before the school trip, Qu Xueer asked Xu Baiqing to come to the bar on the day when Chang Xian was working. When Xu Baiqing arrived, Qu Xueer couldn't help complaining to her, saying that Chang Xian treated her like a child and that Chang Xian just took her ambiguous and flirtatious words as jokes.
"...I really envy Sister Baiqing. She is getting closer and closer to Sister Rongrong." Qu Xueer ended with this sentence. Compared with the slowly progressing relationship between her and Changxian, in her opinion, Xu Baiqing has already entered the relationship. Maybe all they need is one final push to break through this window paper and they can be together naturally.
Xu Baiqing sighed when she heard this. Before in the equipment room, Xu Baiqing did notice that Qian Yirong's attitude had softened, but after Qian Yirong moved out of the Qian family, although she even got the spare key to Qian Yirong's house, for some reason she became even more distant towards her.
"Oh, Sister Bai Qing, you asked me to find out about this, and I have some news," Qu Xueer said. "I asked my brother to find out for me, and it's exactly as you thought. It was Mu Zexuan who did it in secret."
Qu Xueer couldn't help but grit her teeth as she spoke. She didn't expect Mu Zexuan to be that kind of person. He completely ignored Xu Baiqing's wishes. Just because he felt that Qian Yirong had bad intentions towards Xu Baiqing, he put pressure on the Qian family and asked them to kick Qian Yirong out of the house.
Moreover, the Qian family's actions also made Qu Xueer feel cold in the face. They clearly showed that they valued Qian Yirong very much, but Mu Zexuan only used a small trick and gave up Qian Yirong immediately without any struggle.
"It's indeed him." Xu Baiqing lowered his eyes, and a storm gathered in his dark eyes. No matter whether Qian Yirong wanted to attack her or not, it was Xu Baiqing's business. He could remind her, but he could not make decisions on his own without regard to Xu Baiqing's wishes.
What's more, Xu Baiqing's plan was very good and was quite effective, but now all her plans have been disrupted. In addition, the other people in the Qian family are keeping a close eye on her, which greatly reduces the time she spends with Qian Yirong.
"What are you going to do?" Qu Xueer asked.
"Of course, it's to cause him some trouble." Xu Baiqing said bluntly without any hesitation.
"Be careful, the other members of the Mu family are much more difficult to deal with than Mu Zexuan." Qu Xueer reminded. Since she decided to seize power, in addition to her own family members, she also investigated other families.
Although the four major families help each other, it is only a surface peace. If there is a chance to step on other families, the other families will naturally act without hesitation. Qu Xueer also realized that although her brother and several others seem to be good friends, their relationship is not that good in private.
The other people were also superficial in their treatment of her, but she was not a threat. If there was a chance to step on her brother, she would naturally fall and there would be no need to use any other means.
"Of course I know, but they are so arrogant that they will never discover our methods." Xu Baiqing said with a sarcastic smile.
"Yeah, I didn't expect that I would do something like this..." Qu Xue'er sighed a little, but soon became excited. She said, "Sister Bai Qing, you're right. It turns out that power is the best tonic for women. It's so refreshing to watch my strength gradually develop."
Qu Xueer thought that this might be the result of failure in love but success in career. Although her relationship with Chang Xian did not develop as expected, the business of the company she cooperated with Xu Baiqing was booming. Although it was still some distance away from her own family, it might be possible for the latecomer to surpass her.
"I'm glad you can figure it out." Xu Baiqing said with a chuckle.
However, she also had a new respect for Qu Xueer. She had thought she was a simple young lady, but unexpectedly, she was quite capable. Moreover, she had grown up quickly because of the influence of her family.
"Sister Bai Qing, when can we get Sister Rongrong to join us?" Qu Xueer asked expectantly. "You don't know how amazing Sister Rongrong is. I follow your advice and pretend to be embarrassed in front of her whenever I encounter difficulties. She always gives me excellent suggestions for solutions right away. Sister Rongrong is truly amazing."
"I want to too, but now is not the time." Xu Baiqing sighed. She didn't know what Qian Yirong was worried about. She was obviously experienced and powerful, but she was unwilling to take the initiative and insisted on letting her fall into a situation where she was controlled by others.
"Then let's wait a little longer," Qu Xue'er also sighed. After taking a look at Xu Baiqing, who looked charming and dangerous under the lights, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sister Baiqing, I wonder if the rumors at school are true?"
Xu Baiqing's face darkened when she heard this. Mu Zexuan was the one she had guided before, so Xu Baiqing had expected this, but as for Shen Tianxing and even the strange-behaving Li Jingyan, Xu Baiqing didn't know why these two people were so obsessed with her when she hadn't done anything.
It seems to be true. Qu Xueer looked at Xu Baiqing's expression and sighed in her heart. She could only say that her sister Baiqing was indeed very charming. However, perhaps Shen Tianxing and the others were more interested in it because of Mu Zexuan's attitude towards Xu Baiqing.
Just when Qu Xueer wanted to continue gossiping, Chang Xian appeared on the stage, so Qu Xueer immediately began to stare at the shining Chang Xian on the stage, and waved vigorously when Chang Xian looked at her.
Xu Baiqing was temporarily relieved from her worries because of Qu Xueer's movement. She watched the performance on the stage casually, but soon raised the corners of her mouth as if she had discovered something interesting.
She glanced at Qu Xue'er, who was immersed in Chang Xian's charm. Perhaps because she was in a different situation, Qu Xue'er didn't seem to notice that Chang Xian's eyes often fell on their booth, and...
Xu Baiqing had a playful smile on his face and slowly approached Qu Xueer. He seemed to be afraid that her voice was too loud and she couldn't hear him clearly, so he said something in her ear.
Qu Xueer nodded distractedly. Xu Baiqing keenly felt that Chang Xian was becoming hostile towards her, and the pronunciation in her singing became more powerful. She understood and sat back in her seat.
But she couldn't help feeling a little sour in her heart. Qu Xueer was still envious of her. It was obvious that Chang Xian was the one who was really interested in her and even regarded her as a rival in love. She guessed that if Qu Xueer tried harder, she would get what she wanted. Unlike her, let alone getting what she wanted, there was not even a chance of success.
Xu Baiqing looked at Qu Xueer with annoyance, as she had no energy to pay attention to her. He patted her shoulder and left the booth. Xu Baiqing approached Qu Xueer just now to test her, and secondly, of course, because Qu Xueer had no one else in her eyes as soon as Chang Xian appeared.
Naturally, she didn't want to stay here, so she suggested going back first. Qu Xueer also knew her little problem, so she agreed embarrassedly. Xu Baiqing did not remind Qu Xueer of Chang Xian's attitude.
She still has to endure the bitterness of love, so how can Qu Xueer taste the sweetness of love first? Of course, she will pursue him for a while longer, and she doesn't want Qu Xueer to leave all the company's affairs to her after they fall in love. Now Qu Xueer should focus on her career first.
After thinking about this, Xu Baiqing felt a little better. She could stay overnight at Qian Yirong's place today. This was something she had to coax out of her. If she didn't have something to discuss with Qu Xueer, she wouldn't have wasted her time coming here.
Now that she could leave, she was a little impatient. When she arrived at the gate of the community, before she could make any move, the security guard at the security booth who was familiar with her opened the security gate.
Xu Baiqing greeted the security guard and entered the residential complex. Although she didn't have many opportunities to stay overnight here because of the Qian family, she would always come here early during the afternoon and weekends.
He got on the elevator familiarly, took out the key from his bag, and unlocked the corresponding floor. With a "ding" sound, the elevator arrived at Qian Yirong's floor. Xu Baiqing skillfully took out the key and opened the door.
In the brightly lit hall, Qian Yirong was sitting on the sofa with a book in her hand. The light from overhead shone down on her. Qian Yirong's expression was gentle, but there was an elusive vagueness in her that made Xu Baiqing feel a little flustered.
"Rongrong..." Xu Baiqing couldn't help but call out.
"You're back." Upon hearing this, Qian Yirong put down the book in her hand and smiled at Xu Baiqing who was standing at the door.
Xu Baiqing's heart was beating fast. She approached Qian Yirong step by step, and then couldn't help but throw herself into her arms. Qian Yirong was stunned, but still reached out and patted her back.
Qian Yirong's face turned gloomy. She looked at Xu Baiqing, who seemed to have been wronged, and began to recall what happened in school. She wondered if she was bullied without her noticing.
Although she secretly made up her mind to keep some distance from Xu Baiqing, Qian Yirong couldn't help but care about her. At the end of her final story, Qian Yirong hoped that Xu Baiqing would not be too sad. After all, what she was about to do was really too much.
