Chapter 373 No Way Out
Gu Hongyi has always shown his dislike for this illegitimate daughter and has never given Bai Xue a chance to get close to her because he feels indebted to Ding Shan and her daughter.
Back then, he had a fight with Ding Shan and went to a bar to drown his sorrows. Little did he know that he would sleep with one of the girls at the bar, and that's how Bai Xue came to be.
To avoid upsetting Ding Shan and Gu Hanxi, he would humiliate and berate Bai Xue every time she got close, causing Bai Xue to be disliked by the entire Gu family. He was unaware that Gu Hanxi had secretly hired someone to get rid of Bai Xue.
In truth, she is innocent and should not bear the blame for the adults' mistakes.
Now that Gu Hanxi is no longer alive, and this illegitimate daughter is going abroad, it is only right and proper for him, as her father, to show his support.
Hearing that he was leaving, Bai Xue breathed a sigh of relief and waved her hand, saying, "I understand. I'll contact you once I'm settled."
Gu Hongyi nodded sadly. He realized his mistake too late. He just wanted her to be happy in the future.
Unexpectedly, Gu Hongyi turned around and saw Bo Siye walking towards him.
He asked in surprise, "Uncle, what are you doing here? Are you here to see Bai Xue too?"
Bai Xue clenched her fists tightly. This must have been arranged by Bo Siye on purpose. Could it be that he had sensed something?
Seeing his burning anger, Gu Hongyi angrily asked, "What are you doing here?"
This person caused Ding Shan to have to be treated in a mental hospital and bear the crime of poisoning people. Gu Hongyi has long wanted to settle accounts with him.
Unfortunately, Ding Shan's situation was unstable, so he temporarily suppressed these things. He didn't expect to run into him here.
Despite his anger, Bo Siye remained calm and walked over with a gentlemanly smile. He went straight to Bai Xue and naturally reached out to take her hand.
"Uncle, you don't know yet, Bai Xue had already agreed to my marriage proposal before, but after all that happened, she needed to go abroad to hide for a while."
Gu Hongyi stared at the two of them with wide eyes in disbelief, and blurted out: "Propose? Weren't you always pursuing Han Xi? How come you're with Bai Xue now?"
Bo Siye smiled slightly and said, "No one can say for sure when it comes to matters of the heart. When feelings come, you can't stop them."
Gu Hongyi looked at Bai Xue and wondered what kind of nonsense this despicable and shameless person was spouting.
Is he telling the truth?
Bai Xue naturally didn't want to admit it, but in order to get him to leave quickly, she nodded: "He's right. Marrying him will allow me to enter a wealthy family. You don't need to worry about my affairs. You can leave now."
Given the situation, Gu Hongyi couldn't rest easy. He turned back, ignoring her blocking the doorway, pushed her aside, and went inside to sit on the sofa.
This Bo Siye has done a lot of harm; we can't let him hurt Bai Xue anymore.
He assumed that Bai Xue was bewitched and had been deceived by him, and that he had to make her see the true face of this man.
Bo Siye revealed a smug smile. What he needed was for Gu Hongyi to be present. No matter who tried to play tricks, they probably wouldn't be able to.
Bai Xue had been hiding here for half a day, how could Shen Jiheng and the others not find her? And how could they not have made a move on information as readily available as flight information?
Everything was too ordinary, yet it was strangely unsettling.
Bo Siye put his arm around Bai Xue's strong shoulders and turned around, smiling as he said, "Uncle must have come to see her off too. I've already made all the arrangements, so don't worry. I'm just here to pick up a few things."
Gu Hongyi stared intently at him: "I want to see what you're going to take!"
In another room, Shen Jiheng was looking at the surveillance footage on the screen with a troubled expression. His face was terribly gloomy, and he exuded a terrifying aura.
No one expected Gu Hongyi to appear here. He even thought that if Bai Xue failed, he would eliminate Bo Siye today.
He could disregard Bai Xue's safety, but he couldn't disregard Gu Hongyi.
"President, what should we do?"
Shen Jiheng raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes blazing with anger. This situation was no longer up to them; it depended on what Bai Xue would do in the end.
"Then let's see if Bai Xue dares to make a move in front of Gu Hongyi."
"Another strange thing is that Bo Siye drove here alone this time."
Did you come alone?
He actually sensed something was wrong, so how did he still have the guts to come alone?
When he is confident in doing these things, he will definitely make thorough preparations and not take them lightly.
“Check what he did before he came. We were only focused on Bai Xue and didn’t consider his actions.”
Qin Chuan lowered his head in shame and said, "It was our oversight. We'll go investigate right away."
Shen Jiheng solemnly reminded him: "Remember, no matter what, you must not let Gu Hongyi get hurt."
If something happens to Gu Hongyi, he doesn't know how to explain it to the Gu family.
Qin Chuan nodded and left. No matter what, they had to protect Gu Hongyi.
The original plan was to eliminate Bo Siye, but it turned out like this, which is heartbreaking.
Bai Xue knew that no matter what she said, Gu Hongyi wouldn't leave, so she made an excuse to pour them water.
"I'll pour you a glass of water. I don't know when we'll see each other again."
Bai Xue put the poison she had prepared in advance into the water, and when she brought it over to the two of them, she deliberately placed the cup with the poison in front of Bo Siye.
Bo Siye glanced at the water glass, then his gaze fell back on her, as if he had already seen through everything.
"Bai Xue, where is the thing you mentioned yesterday? We're about to board the plane, don't waste time."
Bai Xue smiled gently and said, "You've come all this way, you must be tired. Have some water first, I'll go get it for you right away."
Seeing Bo Siye pick up his water glass, Bai Xuexin jumped into her throat. She pretended to look for something, but kept glancing at him out of the corner of her eye.
As the cup was brought to her lips, Bai Xue nervously swallowed, praying that he would drink it quickly.
Bo Siye slightly raised the cup, about to touch the water, but suddenly stopped and put the cup back in its place. During this process, Bai Xue's mood was like a roller coaster.
"I don't like drinking water from outside." As he spoke, he saw that Gu Hongyi had finished drinking the water in his cup, and with a smile, he kindly handed it to him.
“If Uncle is thirsty, you can have this cup too.”
After learning about Bai Xue's situation, Gu Hongyi rushed over without stopping along the way, and he was indeed extremely thirsty.
Just as he was about to reach out to take it, Bai Xue suddenly rushed forward and pulled his hand back.
"He just touched you. If you want some water... I'll pour you some more."
Gu Hongyi was startled by her action, while Bo Siye, with his gentle and gentlemanly smile, always remained enigmatic and unpredictable.
Just as Bai Xue let go, Bo Siye grabbed her and pulled her to his side.
"You can't even speak properly, you should drink some water to calm your nerves."
As she spoke, she handed over the cup in her hand, causing Bai Xue to quickly turn her head away in a hurry.
"I'm not thirsty!"
"You have to drink even if you're not thirsty, otherwise I'll think you've poisoned the water. Otherwise, why would you have such a strong reaction just now?"
Bai Xue's pupils dilated, and Gu Hongyi also stood up abruptly upon hearing this.
"What's going on? Bai Xue, what are you trying to do?"
There was no turning back now. Bai Xue gritted her teeth and glared at Bo Siye. Today, she had no choice but to fight back.
