Chapter 128 I thought you...liked A Yao too
Xie Shiyuan looked suspicious, obviously not believing what the man said, "You pretended so well that you even fooled the cunning old lady Xie."
Bai Jiashu curved his thin lips, put down the cup in his hand, turned around, and took out a small box from his pocket.
"Look what this is."
I opened the box and found a few small red pills inside.
The man took out one, put it in his mouth, and then covered his mouth with a handkerchief. The clean handkerchief turned bright red.
Against the backdrop of that face that looked like a banished immortal, he looked frail and it really looked like that.
He coughed rapidly and blinked his warm eyes, "Is it similar?"
“Too much like him.”
Xie Shiyuan suspected that if he continued coughing, he would faint next.
"Bai Zhuoran likes Xie Yuanyuan very much. If you don't want an arranged marriage, why not switch the engagement to Bai Zhuoran? I believe the Second Madam will be very happy too."
It can be seen that Bai Jiashu's desire to cancel the engagement is still a bit tricky, otherwise he wouldn't have to pretend to be faint in front of the reporters.
That scene was quite interesting.
Old Master Bai turned pale with fright and was completely panicked, fearing that Bai Jiashu would die on the spot and the group would be leaderless, and his good days would be over.
"You pretended to be sick and coughed up blood, which gave the Second Madam an opportunity to make trouble. She would tell Mr. Bai that you are in poor health and will not live for many years. The group must let Bai Zhuoran take over as soon as possible. Mr. Bai will let Bai Zhuoran intervene in more core businesses. In the end, wouldn't you be helping him get married?"
"This is not a good idea. You are acting impulsively."
"I am impulsive, and so are you." The man grabbed the girl's hand and stroked the gauze wrapped around it. "Before you saved Xie Tingke, did you consider whether you would get hurt?"
Xie Shiyuan hummed, "Talk about your own business, don't involve me."
Bai Jiashu curled his lips, "Wouldn't it be better to let Bai Zhuoran inherit the group? I changed my mind. Let him inherit the group. This way he will have more capital to marry Xie Yuanyuan. Maybe President Xie will change his mind. It's easier to deal with a fool than to deal with me. It will be much easier for him to annex the group."
"If I continue to intimidate him, after my grandfather dies, Bai Zhuoran might sell the group to Mr. Xie."
Xie Shiyuan was unhappy, "Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?"
That being said, Bai Jiashu would never do that. Although he had no intention of fighting for power and gain, his personality was such that he would not fight or compete, and he would never give up what belonged to him.
The man leaned back on the sofa.
The little fox was sitting on the man's lap. His fair little face looked particularly peaceful in the moonlight, with an expression of displeasure on it.
He pinched her cheek lovingly, "I thought you only knew how to smile, no matter what happened, you would always smile."
"You are right. Your engagement has been changed. My engagement can also be changed. I'm sure the Second Madam will be very happy if it's changed to Bai Zhuoran."
"About a dozen years ago, I heard Second Madam and Grandpa mention something unintentionally. The gist of it was that I was in poor health and it would be better to let Bai Zhuoran take my place. Grandpa immediately scolded her severely and warned her not to mention such a ridiculous thing if she didn't want to die."
"Later, she changed her attitude. Not only did she not let Bai Zhuoran replace me, she also strongly supported my marriage with Xie Yuanyuan. Especially after you returned to the Xie family, she was worried that something might happen if you were late, and she wanted to force me to marry Xie Yuanyuan right away."
"What could have caused her to change her attitude? It's because through this marriage, she will gain immeasurable benefits, and so will the Bai family."
"Even though she knew that I was in poor health, Old Lady Xie didn't let Xie Yuanyuan regret the marriage. They were all sure that they could gain benefits from this marriage. It just depended on who would gain more. As for me..."
"Just be at the wedding scene, play the role of a diligent and responsible groom, and wait for me and..."
"Not long after you and Xie Yuanyuan get married, they might find a reason for you, saying you died of illness." Xie Shiyuan interrupted the man and continued very naturally.
A hint of satisfaction flashed in Bai Jiashu's eyes, "It seems that you know them very well."
Xie Shiyuan lowered his eyes, buried his head on his shoulder, and muttered, "Shameless people are like this."
"However, I thought that Mr. Bai was sincere to you. Your father didn't love you without your mother. It would be difficult for you to survive without the protection of Mr. Bai. Take that Bai Zhen'er for example. She used such despicable means to treat me, not to mention your brother who occupied the position of heir. She must have harmed you more than once."
That woman harmed Bai Jiashu, just like Xie Yuanyuan harmed the original owner, she pushed all the responsibility onto others. She didn't harm anyone, it was all the victims' own fault.
With the favoritism of their elders, their evil deeds will be summarized by the phrase "it's normal for children to fight and play."
She has been with Bai Jiashu for a long time, and her previous ideas were somewhat biased.
Bai Jiashu is actually not that easily seduced.
It's not that easy to get interested.
He was slowly accepting her, because she was his fiancée and truly loved him. Also, she and he were in a similar situation, so he felt a little more comforted by someone who shared the same suffering.
More importantly, Xie Yuanyuan's embarrassing identity touched the man's sensitive spot. He didn't like illegitimate daughters, and contacting her behind Mr. Bai's back was a provocation and rebellion against authority.
The existence of the Second Lady, Bai Zhener and Bai Zhuoran were all products of Mr. Bai's tacit approval.
He hated these products, and the instigators wanted to manipulate him like a puppet, so he would use his own way to thwart those people's wishes.
Mr. Bai wanted to use his birthday party to announce his wedding date, but he said in front of reporters that he would not live long, causing turmoil in the group's stock market.
"Bai Zhener told me that your biological mother's last wish is for you to inherit the group and become a perfect successor, which means that she has not lost. Did Mr. Bai promise you that after you get married and start a family, he will let go and hand over the entire group to you?"
"In fact, this promise has been a scam since the beginning. You knew it a long time ago." Xie Shiyuan said: "You have never trusted anyone. Even though Mr. Bai raised you and educated you, you never believed him."
"The only thing I believed in their words was that my body was weak due to genetic problems." A dark light flashed in the man's eyes.
"Besides, you like me."
Xie Shiyuan: “…”
Among these people, except Pei Yao, no one is stupid.
Each one is smarter than the other. To some extent, Bai Jiashu looks easier to deceive than Xie Tingke, but in fact he is much more cunning than Xie Tingke. He is just in poor health and is too lazy to use his brain to play tricks.
"I have always liked you." The girl said without blushing or feeling nervous.
"Oh..." the man drawled out his tone and clicked on a photo.
"I thought you...liked A Yao too."
