Chapter 39 She Longs to Become His Wife
Bai Jiashu smiled and said, "Brother, you think I have rejected you. Why don't you show your real ability? The authorities plan to auction the construction rights of some land in the southwest in the second half of the year. I will ask Xiao Xiao to send you an invitation letter later."
Bai Zhuoran's breathing stagnated, and his eyes were like knives that wanted to kill someone.
With his qualifications, he can only snatch things from Bai Jiashu and is not even qualified to participate in land auctions.
Mrs. Bai looked unhappy and felt humiliated again.
This stepson is always like this, disdainful of arguing, disdainful of paying attention to them, and just looking at them with those indifferent and heartless eyes.
She knew what was hidden in those eyes, it was elegant contempt.
Bai Jiashu looked down on them, but he would not show that expression on his face. With the elegance and bearing of an aristocrat, he would just coldly watch them trying their best, fighting like crazy for what he was born with.
Even though his father did not favor him, even though his favorite toys and books were taken away, his homework books were torn up, and he was wronged and scolded for no reason during his childhood, he would not get angry and always looked calm.
Possessing outstanding appearance, good upbringing and excellent temperament.
He's really a person who can't be faulted in any way.
"Jia Shu, how are you doing recently?" Mrs. Bai smiled. "We are all family. I am worried about your health and afraid that you will be too busy with work and miss out on rest. That's why I thought of asking your eldest brother to help."
"If you don't want to, then forget it. It's a pity that we have worked so hard to ease our relationship with you and ease the pain you feel because of your mother's death..."
Bai Jiashu looked calm. After hearing the last few words, he looked straight at Mrs. Bai and said, "Don't mention her. You don't deserve her."
Mrs. Bai opened her mouth and smiled bitterly.
Mr. Bai was displeased. "Jia Shu, how do you talk to your elders? What's the matter with being qualified or not? What your Aunt Zhang said makes sense. I believe your father also thinks so. Don't let Zhuoran interfere in anything. What if you fall ill and Zhuoran forces you to do something? He doesn't know how to do anything. This is not fair."
"Grandpa agrees with your plan, but don't be too harsh. Let Zhuoran go to the company and work for a while and learn well."
"Dad, I think the same thing. I'm just afraid Jiashu won't agree..." Mrs. Bai sighed, "Jiashu, if you don't want to, just say it. You don't need to consider what Zhuoran and I think. For so many years, the company has been under your control, and everyone on the board listens to you..."
"He is the heir, and the board of directors listens to him? I'm not dead yet!" Mr. Bai was even more displeased and interrupted directly.
"It's settled. We will continue to build the resort, but Zhuoran must join the company and stay by your side."
This is tantamount to surveillance, and also another way of interfering in core business.
Bai Jiashu closed the document in his hand.
Mrs. Bai smiled, trying hard to hide her smugness. When the man's eyes swept over her, she immediately lowered her head and looked uneasy again.
"Dad, this is too embarrassing for Jiashu. I wonder if he will feel uncomfortable because of Zhuoran. Let's just forget it..."
"Okay." Before he could finish his words, Bai Jiashu unexpectedly agreed.
Mrs. Bai looked up suddenly.
The man covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed twice. "Let Big Brother learn from me and see if he can learn to be a decent person."
"After all, transforming waste is a very interesting thing, isn't it?"
Gentle eyes and soft tone, almost thought he was saying some lingering love words, Mrs. Bai looked at him, bit her lips tightly, and then she endured the humiliation and forced a smile, "Jia Shu, if you are willing to give your elder brother a chance, Aunt Zhang will accept whatever you say."
"I hope so." Bai Jiashu said indifferently.
He went on to talk with Mr. Bai about company matters. Xie Yuanyuan was restless and couldn't understand the professional terms, but she could feel her eyes changing with every word Bai Jiashu said.
It's hard not to be attracted by a mature, reserved, and wise man...
Bai Jiashu is as capable as Xie Tingke. Compared to Xie Tingke's indifference, he has more compassion for the world. When he looks at people with his deep and gentle eyes, you can't help but melt under such a gentle gaze.
She felt a little guilty.
I shouldn't have secretly gone to visit Pei Yao when he was feeling unwell.
Even if he rejected her, she should muster up the courage to get close to him like Xie Shiyuan.
We should protect him like Xie Shiyuan did.
She clearly sensed Mrs. Bai's ill will, so why did she hesitate when she wanted to speak for him?
Because you think that he is in poor health and will die sooner or later, it is not worth the effort and there is no need to offend Mrs. Bai?
Xie Yuanyuan's mind was a little confused. She looked up and accidentally made eye contact with the man, which made her thoughts even more confused.
She called softly, "Brother Jiashu, how have you been lately?"
Bai Jiashu didn't have any extra reaction.
Xie Shiyuan frowned and immediately poked the man's face, "Brother Jiashu."
It can be as weird as you want.
Bai Jiashu patted her hands.
She poked the man's face again, "Brother Jiashu~"
The sound of the clappers is so sweet that it makes you feel dizzy.
Bai Jiashu glanced at her, and Xie Shiyuan crossed his arms and rolled his eyes in disdain.
Bai Jiashu: “….”
Xie Yuanyuan's heart skipped a beat and she really regretted it.
Old Master Bai had a gloomy face and glared at Xie Shiyuan hatefully. After discussing the business, he directly sent him away.
Before leaving, he warned Bai Jiashu directly: "I don't want to see this woman next time. You know who your fiancée is. Don't do anything that will make everyone unhappy, unless you want to give up your status as heir."
"Even if she is Mr. Xie's sister, Grandpa has ten thousand ways to punish her."
"What's wrong with Yuanyuan? Why do you look down on her so much? You had to bring her here to piss me off to death."
He succeeded, and everyone was pissed.
Xie Yuanyuan was so angry that she cried and couldn't stop crying.
Bai Zhuoran hurriedly handed over a tissue, but Xie Yuanyuan refused it. She looked at Bai Jiashu with red eyes.
Bai Jiashu glanced towards the door and saw Xie Shiyuan staring at him with a triumphant smirk on his face, as smug as a little fox who had stolen honey.
She reached out to him.
Bai Jiashu pondered for a moment and walked over.
Xie Yuanyuan felt heart-broken, cold and painful.
"Jiashu-ge..."
She couldn't do it and remained indifferent.
He was so wonderful that she would still want him and long to be his wife.
Desire triumphed over reason.
She finally became frightened and uneasy.
Things have changed.
She could no longer sit back and relax as before, confident that all the best people and things would belong to her.
