Chapter 12 Chapter 12 Sorry, this is a gift from my fourth brother...
Bai Lincheng smiled in response, turned his face to the side, his slightly shrunken pupils hidden under the lenses, and relaxed a little bit.
He seemed to be interested: "So what do you think of me?"
[He went through so much trouble just to ask himself! ]
[Oh, man, not frank at all. ]
[But Bai Mincheng is so handsome. How many years must it take to grow such a good-looking figure! Look at his figure, his small waist, and his butt! ]
"Snap."
The sound of the bottom of the cup hitting the table interrupted Bai Qingqing's thoughts.
Bai Qingqing was holding up an empty plate, and now she looked at Bai Lincheng in confusion, with a pure and innocent look, and a hint of grievance on her face, as if she was frightened by him suddenly putting the cup down heavily.
But her voice was full of energy and rhythm.
[What else can I do?! ]
[Of course I will indulge you, beautiful man. ]
Her eyes fell on his face without any hesitation, but her smile was very polite:
"Of course, Big Brother is handsome and outstanding. I have never seen anyone as good-looking as Big Brother..."
Bai Lincheng's forehead twitched. When he heard this beginning, his mind automatically connected with her thoughts just now. She had repeated it twice tonight, and he could even remember the tone of her voice clearly.
He didn't want to hear anything anymore, so he took a breath and said, "Go to bed early after dinner. I'm leaving now."
Bai Lincheng turned around and left without even looking at Bai Qingqing.
Her inner voice became surprised: [The expression changes so quickly. ]
[Does he not like people praising him for his good looks? But when we first met, what else should I praise if not his face? Should I praise his good character? Would he believe me if I praised him?]
It was dark outside the small kitchen. Shadows engulfed Bai Lingcheng's gradually accelerating back. The clinking of dishes came from behind, mixed with the continuous voices in his mind:
[No matter what, Bai Mincheng is pretty good-looking. If I weren't his biological sister, I would have gone up to chat with him.]
[No wonder he was able to invite a beautiful woman to perform a honey trap on him. With someone like Bai Mincheng, who wouldn’t be tempted? Calculating the time, it should be around this time…]
Bai Lincheng paused and stopped beside the sofa. Because of the distance, his thoughts became unclear.
【What was that person's name? 】
[Hmm, I don’t remember! ]
Bai Qingqing's heart was even filled with joy and excitement. She took a pair of chopsticks, sat down at the table, and hummed a tune softly.
[…I only remember that she was wearing a Bulgari snake, with a pair of long and thin legs in seven-inch high heels. In the empty box next to the restroom in the bar, she hooked Bai Lincheng's waist, grabbed him, and stuffed more than a thousand in tips into his shirt…]
[The two of them did nothing, but Bai Mincheng seemed to be so crazy that he ended up giving the new technology to the beauty. ]
In the dim light, Bai Lincheng sneered softly.
Bai Qingqing's voice cannot be trusted...
Being obsessed with women?
And give away new technology?
It's impossible in this lifetime.

The next day.
The Bai family was bustling with activity since early morning. The villa staff were busy running around. Bai Qingqing also moved to the third floor, living diagonally across from Bai Muning.
The master bedroom is much larger than the guest bedroom. It is decorated in many pink colors, with fresh flowers placed everywhere. There is also a pair of dolls on the bed. It is obvious that it is a room carefully prepared for girls.
There were documents on the white lacquered carved dressing table, and on top was her new ID card - Bai Qingqing.
Butler Xu watched Bai Qingqing walk around the room and finally stand by the window looking out.
"Miss Qingqing, if you have any dissatisfaction, you can tell me."
Downstairs, several little kids in pink princess dresses were chasing after peacocks, ordering them to spread their feathers. Two boys in tuxedos and suits were laughing loudly beside them.
Some guests had arrived and were sitting in a courtyard not far away, drinking tea and chatting, watching the children playing from afar.
Bai Qingqing retracted her gaze and saw two rows of clothes hangers being pushed into the room.
"Thank you, the room is nice, but I don't like flowers. I'll stop displaying them after the flowers are gone."
"Okay." Butler Xu nodded: "If you have anything else you don't like, you can tell me and I will pay attention to it."
"I'll tell you when I remember." Bai Qingqing smiled at her politely and reached out to look through the clothes rack.
The clothes in the two worlds look similar, still those well-known high-end brands. Ms. Xu is probably exploring her preferences, and the clothes sent are of all types.
From princess dresses to suits, cheongsams, and new Chinese-style dresses, everything is available in a variety of colors.
Her back still hurt, and she was too lazy to try on clothes one by one, so her eyes fell on a black dress she had worn in her previous life.
In both worlds, her looks and figure are similar, so she wouldn't look bad in this.
Bai Qingqing was about to raise her hand when Butler Xu noticed where she was looking and took the initiative to introduce: "This section contains all the latest models of the season. The row over here is not yet on the market. We'll give it to the SVIPs to choose from first."
"This is what Miss Mu Ning is wearing today." Butler Xu pointed at a white dress that had not yet been released.
The little white dress is knee-length, with straps at the back that reveal half of her back. Butterflies and floral crochet are dotted on the hem and tulle, making her look pure and lively.
Bai Qingqing raised her eyebrows, and began to understand whose preferences this room was decorated based on.
She took the black skirt off the hanger neatly: "I'll wear this."
"Okay, Miss Qingqing, call me after you've changed your clothes and I'll ask the stylist to come in."
…
Eleven o'clock in the morning.
The scorching sun shines into the house through the skylight, the huge crystal chandelier sways gently, the champagne mingles, and the soft laughter makes it look peaceful and elegant.
The reception area is surrounded by huge floor-to-ceiling windows. Standing on the second floor, you can see outside. Staff in black and white uniforms are moving around, preparing for lunch.
Lawn, round table, white tablecloth, couple arm in arm and running children.
As she came into contact with more and more people and scenes, she suddenly began to feel a sense of reality about this world.
She really entered a new world...
Regardless of whether it is real or not, the people here are flesh and blood.
Bai Muning sat in the middle of the sofa, surrounded by a group of people. Beside him were Ao Xinyi and Bai Siqi. They were talking about something, but their cheerful laughter could be heard upstairs.
She accidentally looked up and saw Bai Qingqing on the spiral staircase. She called out softly:
"My sister is here."
Everyone was silent for a moment, and looked upstairs. Bai Qingqing and Bai Muning looked at each other from a distance, and then walked downstairs. Ao Xinyi came up and grabbed their wrists: "Qingqing, you look really good today."
"How's your foot? Does it hurt?"
"It's almost alright."
Bai Qingqing smiled at her and was brought to the front of the crowd by Ao Xinyi. She introduced her to everyone, "This is my daughter, Qingqing. Come here, Qingqing, these are your family members. Let me introduce them to you."
"This is your aunt Yi Xin, and this is your uncle and aunt..."
Whenever Ao Xinyi introduced someone, the other person would greet Bai Qingqing. Although they were not familiar with each other, they smiled gently and kindly and gave her the gifts they brought.
After introducing everyone in the reception room, Ao Xinyi smiled at his daughter and said, "It's okay if you can't remember their names. We will get to know them better as our family spend more time together."
She took Bai Qingqing in her arms and went back to the sofa to sit down and rest. She poured her a cup of tea and said, "Your grandpa is not in good health. Grandma is accompanying him to recuperate. Your second and fourth brothers are both working abroad and cannot come back for the time being. But your fourth brother has agreed that he will definitely come back for the dinner next week."
Bai Qingqing nodded: "Yes."
She didn't care about these family members she had never met, and she didn't feel anything about them not coming back.
Bai Muning was listening and seemed to remember something. He personally found two gift boxes from the pile of gifts and handed them to Bai Qingqing, saying with a smile, "Mom, here are the gifts for my second and fourth brothers."
Bai Muning's eyes were a little swollen, but he seemed to have calmed down. Facing Bai Qingqing, he could still smile and talk naturally, and took the initiative to get his brother's gift, obviously wanting to get along well with her.
Ao Xinyi felt much more relieved.
Sure enough, just because the incident happened suddenly yesterday, the children couldn’t accept it for a while. As long as they calm down and get along well in the future, everything will be fine.
Ao Xinyi's smile deepened: "Qingqing, open it quickly and see what gifts your second and fourth brothers gave you. Do you like them?"
The gift boxes are about the same size. The one in light blue packaging was sent by the second brother Bai Siming. The words on the greeting card are dignified and rigorous, and can be seen through the back of the paper. There is a message attached: "Wishing you peace every year."
The gift was a musical crystal ball with a metal base. Inside the ball there was a little girl dancing in front of a house.
After rotation, ding-dong music sounds from the mechanism, and the metal bars at the base stretch outward with the rhythm, forming undulating waves, like a pulsating heartbeat.
"It's very special. I like it very much." Bai Qingqing touched the signature on the wooden base and asked, "Did my second brother make this?"
"Yes, he has a studio in Finland with many interesting designs. When your second brother finishes his work, we will take you to see it."
I briefly introduced her as having two older brothers yesterday, but not in detail, Ao Xinyi said, and decided to find the photo album and show it to Qingqing in the afternoon.
The other gift box was not big either, but it was wrapped more delicately, and a lot of thought went into its appearance.
Bai Qingqing opened the box, revealing a pair of exquisite earrings inside.
Giving a gift like this to a sister I’ve never met...?
Bai Qingqing raised her eyebrows slightly, and Bai Muning beside her exclaimed softly: "Oh, I'm sorry, this is a gift from my fourth brother. Qingqing, I got it mixed up. I'll get it for you again."
Bai Mu Ning stood up and hurriedly went to get another box. He said with an embarrassed smile, "This is what I asked Fourth Brother to find for me. It's been a long time, but I didn't expect Fourth Brother to really find it."
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment. The relatives who were originally praising the earrings fell silent.
Second Aunt smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Yiyi, your Heyun is really amazing. I asked him to find an antique vase for me last month. I didn't have much hope, but he called me yesterday and told me he found it."
Ao Xinyi smiled awkwardly and looked at Qingqing's face secretly. Seeing that there was nothing strange on her face and she didn't have any thoughts, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ningning has been careless for a long time, fortunately Qingqing didn't take it too seriously.
Amid everyone's expectant gazes, Bai Qingqing opened another gift box, which contained a white lady's handbag.
Exquisite, beautiful, and expensive, you can never go wrong with it as a gift for girls, and the color goes with everything.
She took a look and closed the box, then smiled at Ao Xinyi and said, "Thank my second and fourth brothers for me."
The atmosphere in the reception room was noticeably colder than before. Bai Muning seemed to have noticed this and his expression became even more apologetic.
The eldest aunt put down the champagne and stood up, changing the subject: "It's about time, right? Are there more people outside? Should we... start the feast?"
Ao Xinyi nodded quickly and took Bai Qingqing's hand: "Qingqing, you must be hungry. Let's go outside. There are some people outside. We can get to know each other while eating."
"Okay." Bai Qingqing stood up obediently and looked at the group of people in the room with suspicion in her heart.
The people blocking her sight dispersed, and Ao Xinyi and Bai Shuting, one on each side, led Bai Qingqing out the door. Suddenly, the view in front of her became clear.
In the courtyard, nearly a hundred faces turned around, realizing that the little girl between the couple was the protagonist of the day, and they all smiled and walked towards them.
[Oh my god, what a large group of people.]
[Are they all relatives? ]
The aunt who was walking beside Bai Qingqing said "Huh" and looked at Bai Qingqing.
Bai Shuting gently stroked his daughter's back, while his eldest brother Bai Lincheng observed her imperceptibly.
Bai Qingqing's eyes widened:
【What a big family of villains! 】
