Chapter 129 Chapter 129 Thousand Points of Golden Light
At dinner that night, Bai Qingqing devoured it all.
Ao Xinyi looked a little worried. Although he had occasionally seen his daughter anxious when eating, tonight it was as if there was a fire burning behind her butt. If she was a step late, she would be chased away.
At first she thought that the child was hungry, so she let her eat a few bites to fill her stomach.
When she wanted to eat more slowly later, Bai Qingqing put down her chopsticks, wiped the corners of her lips with a tissue, stood up with her bag, and said to everyone, "I'm done eating. I'm going back to my room now. Enjoy your meal, everyone."
"Qingqing..." Ao Xinyi opened his mouth softly, wondering if she had something to do that night.
Ji Ke and Jiang Muning also put down their cutlery at the table, indicating that they had finished their meal. Even Ji Kui, who came later, seemed to have finished his meal as well.
Bai Qingqing seemed to see what Ao Xinyi wanted to ask, and smiled at her with a squint: "I'm in a hurry to go back to bed, good night."
The child was a little anxious, but seeing that she was in a good mood, Ao Xinyi felt more relieved. He stood up with her and whispered, "Don't lie down right after dinner. Take a walk or rest for a while."
The guests were all there. Ao Xinyi spoke in a low voice. While speaking, he pulled Bai Qingqing's hand and checked her temperature.
It's hot, which is normal.
"I've been too tired these past two days. Let's take a walk tomorrow morning. Good night for now!" Bai Qingqing pulled her hand out of Ao Xinyi's palm and patted the back of her hand with her backhand.
The two of them stood next to Ji Kui and talked. After Bai Qingqing greeted Ao Xinyi, she also thanked Ji Kui: "Ji Kui, thank you this time."
Ji Kui nodded at her.
Bai Qingqing smiled, turned around and ran away. Ao Xinyi wanted to say more but he couldn't catch up with her.
Looking back again, Ji Kui also stood up. Ao Xinyi at least sighed and laughed: "No matter how powerful Qingqing is outside, she is still a child in the eyes of a mother like me. I'm sorry to embarrass you. This trip must be tiring. Mr. Kui, you should also rest early."
As she spoke, her eyes unconsciously dropped downwards, looking at the white dot that had always been very noticeable in her peripheral vision, and the proper smile on her face suddenly froze.
Ji Kui was wearing a finely tailored pure black suit, and on his slender black trouser legs, a grayish-white shoe sole print was particularly clear.
From this perspective…
Ao Xinyi's professionalism allowed her to react in less than half a second. The shoe prints from this angle were only from Bai Qingqing, who was sitting to Ji Kui's right...
Only Bai Qingqing could do such a thing as kicking Ji Kui on purpose.
Ao Xinyi closed his eyes briefly.
Qingqing, why did you kick him for no reason?
Although Ji Ke is the heir of the Ji family, Ji Kui, the younger uncle, has to take the back seat. But after all, Ji Ke did not grow up in the Ji family, and only came back to take over the business in the past two or three years. This Ji Kui is the actual person in charge of the Ji family in Jingshi.
Now he seems to be easy to get along with, so don't secretly bear a grudge against Qingqing in your heart.
Ji Kui looked down according to her expression, moved his legs, saw the shoe prints on it, and smiled.
Ao Xinyi turned his eyes away abruptly, pretending not to see it, and continued with the last sentence just now: "Good night."
"Well, good night."

Bai Qingqing ran upstairs and locked the door. She washed up impatiently, changed into pajamas, and lay quietly and peacefully on the bed. She closed her eyes, and the corners of her lips curved upward like little hooks. She couldn't wait any longer, and her spiritual power began to circulate in her body.
This time I went to Baotong for the living dead whose souls and desires were sucked away last time.
Zi Wenbin said that there were too many living dead and the project was huge, and some of their people were willing but unable to handle the task, so he asked her to go back and help out a little.
When she actually went there, she found out that Xu Yang from the incense-making family had made a lot of soul-calling incense according to the method she had taught him before, but he did not bring back a single soul.
Fortunately, she had a fortune teller before she went out and brought Ji Kui along, otherwise she would not have known that there would be such a huge stall in front of her.
Originally, she was thinking that after the Feng Shui masters who stayed in Baotong County woke up everyone, they would definitely share what had happened in the past few days with each other, and she would then publicize her hard work and great achievements to see if she could gain some faith in them.
Now, the first person they see when they open their eyes is themselves, and the situation is more straightforward!
Just wait until she has another dream tonight...
As night fell, the sound of wind outside the window stopped at some point. The black shadows of the trees swayed, and leaves fell from time to time, startling the reptiles on the ground, which crawled away while waving their slender tentacles wildly.
Everything happened silently, and all senses became blurred in the darkening night.
The guest room on the fourth floor of the Bai family.
A black figure stood quietly by the window, his back blending into the night, and his profile, as if carved from jade, glowed white in the hazy moonlight.
Ji Kui squinted at the broken full moon hidden by thin clouds.
Fireflies as tiny as dust gnawed out from the broken corner of the full moon and gathered into a hazy band of light among the clouds. As if pulled by invisible threads, they all flew towards the Bai family's manor and finally floated into the room below him.
Thousands of golden lights gathered together and floated in the air, almost illuminating the dark and dim bedroom.
The shining golden light flowed around the person lying quietly on the bed, and melted into her body with her gentle breathing.
Early the next morning.
Bai Qingqing opened her eyes before six o'clock, washed up and rushed downstairs to have breakfast. She looked as healthy as if she had eaten eight children overnight.
Ao Xinyi also had to go to the script reading in the morning, and he had been preparing since early morning. Seeing that his daughter had gotten up early, he followed her and sat at the dining table with the script spread out in front of him.
But she didn't eat breakfast, and even took only a few sips of water, and didn't even read a few words of the script.
His smiling eyes fell on Bai Qingqing, and he couldn't help asking her, "What happened that makes you so happy? I saw you coming back last night and you were so happy."
"This trip to Baotong went smoothly and the reward was generous..."
Bai Qingqing explained with a good smile. Halfway through her words, her ears moved and she heard the doors on the third and fourth floors open. Sure enough, not long after, she saw Jiang Muning and Ji Ke appear in the corridor.
Her voice paused.
Ao Xinyi didn't hear the noise and thought she had finished talking. He smiled and said, "You are so happy to have made money. Then mom will give you some pocket money, okay? School will start soon, and you haven't bought anything for college yet."
It's already mid-July.
After hearing what Ao Xinyi said, Bai Qingqing remembered that she still had a school to go to. According to the original plot, Li Qingqing's parents who took her away by mistake would come to find her privately soon.
She had almost forgotten about it.
Bai Qingqing put down her chopsticks and tapped the table with the tip of her other finger in annoyance. Just as she was thinking, she saw Bai Lincheng appear in front of her with a briefcase. He put the briefcase down on the chair and his eyes fell on her fingertips tapping on the table.
Bai Lincheng moved his gaze upwards to see Bai Qingqing's furrowed brows, then looked at Ao Xinyi's somewhat puzzled expression.
Ao Xinyi: "What's wrong with that expression?"
"I forgot I have to go to school." Bai Qingqing stopped tapping the table, picked up the bowl and continued eating. She blew the hot air off the edge of the bowl and sighed softly.
Ao Xinyi was amused by her.
Sure enough, no matter how mature a child looks, their expressions are roughly the same when talking about going to school. This reluctant expression is almost exactly the same as that of the fourth and fifth children.
Among her children, probably only Cheng is happy when it comes to going to school.
Ao Xinyi thought about it and glanced at his eldest son beside him: "Lin Cheng, your sister needs to buy things for school, you can help a little, donate money if you have money, donate labor if you have strength, and do some of it yourself, understand?"
Bai Mincheng sat down with a cup of black coffee, his eyes flashing behind his glasses: "Okay."
Ao Xinyi smiled with relief: "Qingqing, Mommy is going to meet the director today, the Tang Yingzhuo I told you about last time. Director Tang, after today, if you have time, Mommy will accompany you to the mall to pick out some clothes. We have never gone shopping together as mother and daughter."
Since my daughter came home, she has been either busy with variety shows or busy taking care of things for others.
Apart from eating together and going to the styling studio, they never did any activities together, including shopping, watching performances, exercising, traveling... they never did anything together.
Bai Qingqing had no interest in preparing for college.
But Ao Xinyi's words, "We haven't gone shopping together yet," made her decide to agree: "That's fine."
In the original novel, Li Qingqing had never gone shopping with Ao Xinyi. The latest clothing styles of the season were all delivered directly to their home by the brands for them to choose from, and any daily needs were all purchased by the Bai family.
The mother and daughter had no need to go out together at all.
All of Li Qingqing's scenes related to Ao Xinyi took place at the Bai family and the variety show venue, and were all various control group plots with Jiang Mu Ning.
As long as it is different from the original plot, she is willing to do it.
Thinking that Ao Xinyi was going to meet the director today, she asked casually, "Have you decided to make a comeback?"
Ao Xinyi smiled and nodded: "It's decided."
Bai Qingqing's eyes curved as well: "That's great."
Bai Qingqing had eaten and drunk her fill, but her hands were still busy, so she drank half a cup of water beside her. She tilted her head back on the chair and saw the two big faces of Jiang Muning and Ji Ke appear not far behind her.
Bai Qingqing was annoyed by the fact that Jiang Muning always looked extremely gentle and weak. He had this expression before she left, and he still had this expression after she came back.
She closed her eyes, pulled her head back from the back of the chair, drank the remaining half cup of water in one breath, and said to Ao Xinyi and Bai Lincheng, "I'm done eating. I'm going back to my room first."
"Qingqing, I'm going back to Beijing today." Jiang Muning suddenly called her.
Bai Qingqing looked as if she had seen a ghost and took a step back.
The last time they talked so clearly in the temple, could Jiang Mu Ning still pretend to be friendly?
Jiang Mu Ning seemed not to notice the shock and disgust on her face. He stepped forward with a smile and tried to hold her hand. "We are sisters. I don't know how long it will take for me to go home. Sister Qingqing, if you have any misunderstandings about me, can we just talk it out?"
Before Jiang Mu Ning's hand touched her, Bai Qingqing suddenly raised her hand from her chest, raised her paws and took another step back: "I didn't misunderstand you."
Ji Ke was still beside her, and Bai Qingqing didn't want to say anything too unpleasant, so she wanted to slip away after she finished speaking.
Jiang Mu Ning, however, saw the look she gave Ji Ke, thinking that there were outsiders present and it was inconvenient to talk, so he followed her and whispered, "Then I'll go to your room alone later to find you..."
She spoke loudly, and everyone in the restaurant could hear it.
Bai Qingqing's hurried back paused, and she turned around and went upstairs to her room, then slipped out of the back door of the main house to the back garden.
Jiang Mu Ning can find whoever he wants.
She didn't want her good mood to be ruined today.
