Chapter 89.
She returned to the villa alone and turned on the lights in the hall. The bright lights illuminated every corner of the hall, just like usual, but Qian Yirong felt that a silent loneliness surrounded her.
She smiled bitterly silently. She didn't expect that she had already gotten used to Xu Baiqing's company. She never felt lonely when she was alone before.
Qian Yirong began to doubt her plan. Could she really accept parting ways with Xu Baiqing in the future? She knew herself very well. She would only let go if she was willing. If she was not willing, when the time came for her to leave, she would definitely coax and deceive Xu Baiqing into leaving with her.
Qian Yirong sat on the sofa, her hands resting on the edge of the sofa, supporting her forehead. The bright light from above was blocked by her hands, casting a shadow on her face. The expression on her face could not be seen clearly, but a sense of danger gradually spread from her, but no one saw it.
Suddenly, her cell phone dinged. There was a message. Qian Yirong paused for a moment before picking up the phone. It was a message from Qu Xueer, who told Qian Yirong her guess.
Qian Yirong's face turned serious. Although she was beginning to gain momentum, her foundation was still shallow compared to the old-established family like the Qu family. If he used some tricks, she would definitely suffer if she didn't guard against them.
First, she thanked Qu Xueer, and then Qian Yirong began to take precautions. She must not capsize in the ditch. After arranging a series of things, Qian Yirong finally relaxed a little. However, because her mind was tense and busy for a while, she felt more tired and her thinking became slower. She rubbed her swollen and painful nose. She knew that thinking about anything was useless now, so Qian Yirong could only go upstairs to wash up and rest.
The next morning, Qian Yirong woke up due to the influence of her biological clock, but because she had enough rest, she felt energetic. After changing her clothes and going downstairs, she heard some noise downstairs.
Qian Yirong immediately became alert. She looked towards the direction where the sound came from and saw a familiar figure. The person she was thinking about yesterday appeared in front of her today. Qian Yirong even raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, thinking she was hallucinating.
"Good morning, Rongrong." Xu Baiqing's clear and pleasant voice sounded.
"You..." Qian Yirong walked closer in surprise and confirmed that Xu Baiqing really appeared in her house.
"Are you surprised?" Xu Baiqing asked playfully when he saw the surprised look on Qian Yirong's face.
"I thought you wouldn't appear in front of me for a while." Qian Yirong nodded in reply.
After all, after what happened yesterday, Qian Chaowen must have known that she had tricked him, and she also knew Xu Baiqing's actions clearly, so she took Xu Baiqing away directly when she left.
After suffering such a huge loss, Qian Yirong felt that Qian Chaowen needed to slow down before using Xu Baiqing to get close to her, so when she heard the noise downstairs, she didn't think that Xu Baiqing, who had the key, had come.
"Then you underestimated father," Xu Baiqing said, clearly praising him, but her tone was tinged with sarcasm. "Father figured it out in one night and asked me to come over to keep in touch with you."
Qian Yirong didn't expect Qian Chaowen to be so flexible. After one night, he acted as if nothing had happened and started wanting to get something from her again. However, Qian Yirong also knew that this was because Qian Chaowen didn't need to step in, as he had transferred all the pressure to Xu Baiqing.
If things were really as Qian Chaowen thought, Xu Baiqing might not even be able to see him today. It can only be said that Qian Chaowen asked Xu Baiqing to get close to him, but no matter what she would encounter with him.
"Let's not talk about those topics that make us unhappy and have breakfast." Xu Baiqing said.
"You are going to school tomorrow. How are your preparations going?" Qian Yirong followed Xu Baiqing's suggestion and changed the subject.
"Can't I really just go to work in your company?" Xu Baiqing's smile fell when she heard that. If Qian Yirong hadn't mentioned it, she would have almost forgotten that she had to go to school.
"Of course not. If you drop out of school now and send your resume to a company, it won't be accepted." Qian Yirong joked.
"Then can you send me off tomorrow?" Xu Baiqing looked at Qian Yirong expectantly.
"...Okay." Under Xu Baiqing's expectant gaze, Qian Yirong finally surrendered and agreed.
"Great." Xu Baiqing cheered, her eyes sparkling with tears as she looked at Qian Yirong. She liked seeing Qian Yirong value her.
Not to mention that after Xu Baiqing followed Qian Yirong to the company, Zhou Rongruan was shocked when she saw her. Qian Yirong was busy with the East City Development Project that day, and Xu Baiqing also helped Qian Yirong a little.
However, because Xu Baiqing had to be sent to school the next day, Qian Yirong took her off work on time. Because more time would be spent in school later, Xu Baiqing slept in Qian Yirong's room at night in a coquettish manner.
So when she woke up the next day, Qian Yirong found Xu Baiqing nestled in her arms. The temperature in the room was just right, so both of their pajamas were very thin, so hugging each other like their skin was touching.
Qian Yirong felt a little nostalgic for this hug, but remembering that she had to send Xu Baiqing to school today, she woke him up gently. Xu Baiqing slept soundly and peacefully on the bed filled with Qian Yirong's scent.
This was completely different from the previous situation where he would wake up at any slight noise, so when Qian Yirong woke him up, Xu Baiqing was not fully conscious yet, but when he opened his eyes in a daze, he saw Qian Yirong's gentle smile.
"Good morning..." Xu Baiqing greeted her subconsciously in a daze, then raised his head and kissed Qian Yirong on the chin.
Qian Yirong didn't expect to be suddenly attacked by Xu Baiqing. Her body stiffened and she blinked in a daze. It is said that the things people do when they are not sober are what they want to do the most. Qian Yirong followed the confused Xu Baiqing and saw her approaching the bathroom.
When Xu Baiqing came out of the bathroom and looked into her sparkling eyes, Qian Yirong knew that she was completely awake, but her expression was normal, as if she didn't remember what had just happened.
Qian Yirong put her guess in her heart. She also got up, washed, and changed her clothes. After the two of them went downstairs to have breakfast, Qian Yirong drove towards Shengde. At first, there were not many vehicles on the road, but gradually Qian Yirong realized that something was wrong.
Although the villa she lives in is in a relatively remote place due to company reasons, there are still many other vehicles on the road. What's more, she is driving to Shengde now, so there should be more cars on the road.
"Something's wrong, hold on tight." Qian Yirong said, and immediately started to increase the speed of the car.
Qian Yirong's words also made Xu Baiqing nervous immediately. She couldn't help but grab the handle on the door to stabilize herself. Seeing Qian Yirong trying to increase the speed of the car, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Not long after Qian Yirong increased the speed, as if she noticed something was wrong, a car came up close to Qian Yirong's car from nowhere. After Qian Yirong noticed it, she immediately started to dodge the approaching car.
However, Qian Yirong, who was trying to dodge, did not realize that the car was not trying to hit her car, but to force her car to another place. Qian Yirong's face became even colder.
"Bai Qing, call the police." Qian Yirong said coldly. It was obvious that they were coming to take her life.
"Okay." Xu Baiqing agreed with a trembling voice. She took out her cell phone from her bag and started calling the police.
Qian Yirong also discovered the intention of the car next to her at this time, and was about to change direction, but unexpectedly a car came towards her at a very high speed, and she had no time to dodge. Qian Yirong controlled her urge to turn the steering wheel to the left, which might have caused her less injury, but Xu Baiqing in the passenger seat would have faced the impact directly.
She turned the steering wheel to the right, which might still result in a direct impact, but at least it was not a head-on collision. However, Qian Yirong did not expect that a soft body would suddenly pounce on her. It was Xu Baiqing. She didn't know when she unbuckled her seat belt and pounced on her.
"You..." Qian Yirong was shocked, but it was too late. A strong force hit her, and Qian Yirong only had time to hug Xu Baiqing tightly before her eyes went black and she passed out.
An unknown amount of time had passed before Qian Yirong woke up to the smell of disinfectant. She opened her eyes and saw a clean white ceiling. The sound of instruments rang in her ears, and she felt dizzy. She raised her hand to rub her eyebrows, but saw an IV drip on the back of her hand. She suddenly remembered what happened before she fainted, and sat up immediately, but a wave of dizziness made her fall back.
"Captain Qian, are you awake?" Zhou Rongruan's surprised voice sounded.
Qian Yirong slowly opened her eyes and saw Zhou Rongruan sitting beside her. After she got over the dizziness, she immediately asked anxiously, "Where is Bai Qing?" She remembered that when the car accident happened, Xu Baiqing rushed over to protect her.
When Zhou Rongruan heard Qian Yirong ask this, his eyes flickered and he said, "Miss Xu is fine. She is in the next ward. Chief Doctor Qian said you have a mild concussion. You should rest well first."
When Qian Yirong raised her other hand that was not receiving an IV drip, she touched the bandage on her forehead. Apart from a slight headache, the rest of her body was fine. This made Qian Yirong even more worried about Xu Baiqing's condition.
"I want to go see her." Qian Yirong said as she wanted to lift the quilt and get up.
"General Qian..." Zhou Rongruan saw Qian Yirong's determination and she didn't know how to persuade her.
At this moment, the door of Qian Yirong's ward was pushed open, and Qu Xueer rushed in with tears in her eyes. When she saw Qian Yirong with a bandage on her head, she first breathed a sigh of relief, but more tears welled up in her eyes.
"Sister Rongrong, thank goodness you're okay," Qu Xueer threw herself beside Qian Yirong's bed, sobbing, "Sister Bai Qing, Sister Bai Qing..."
Seeing Qu Xueer's behavior, Qian Yirong's heart skipped a beat. Her heart, which had not yet been completely at ease, instantly tightened. She ignored the needle in her hand and held Qu Xueer's shoulder, anxiously asking, "What happened to Bai Qing?"
Qu Xueer was crying and speechless. Qian Yirong looked at Zhou Rongruan who had just said that Xu Baiqing was fine. Could it be that she was lying to her? Qian Yirong, who was already restless, became even more uneasy. She couldn't help but pull out the infusion tube in her hand, stood up and rushed out of the ward.
