Yin Yali seemed to have already guessed that Bai Qin would use this incident to explain the situation. But so what? It was Deng Wei, that woman, who impersonated a rich young lady, not herself. So even if she was angry, she couldn't be blamed.
She slung her bag over her shoulder and got up to leave. Although she felt guilty about the will, she possessed a strong enough resolve. After all, the doctors had already said that even if Bai Xiuye's life was saved, he would only be in a vegetative state.
What's the difference between a person in a vegetative state and someone who is dead?
So she couldn't wait for the man to come out of the operating room before she started getting impatient.
Where are you going?
Jiang Yu, who was observing everything, narrowed her eyes and looked at the woman with a threatening expression. Although she was no longer a member of the Bai family, as Bai Qin's sister, she would not allow this woman's evil scheme to succeed.
They naturally knew what she was going back to do—nothing more than prepare evidence and bribe a lawyer. They also suspected that Yin Yali must have accomplices, and those accomplices were certainly not simple individuals.
"I... am going home."
Yin Yali's expression changed in surprise, and she dared not look Jiang Yu in the eye. She was busy calculating her next move. Mustering her courage, she rallied herself. As the only woman in the house, she had to go home and take charge at this crucial moment.
Thinking this, he grew bolder. Mustering his courage, he looked at the crowd and said:
"With such a big incident, if I don't go back, who else in the family can make decisions? Bai Qin, are you really willing to break up with me for a woman whose blood relation with you is not even clear?"
Of all the people in this group, Bai Qin was the only one she could really talk to. Although Bai Ling was considered family, her status was low and her words carried little weight. So she would only turn to her when she had absolutely no other choice.
"What else can we do but break up with you? Keep putting up with you? Just a will of dubious authenticity has exposed your true colors. What, you want to use moral blackmail to protect 80% of your assets?"
Ah Qin may not have as much social experience as you, but don't assume everyone is a fool. Commander Bai is already wary of you; does it make sense for him to let you take so much money?
"You'd better stay here quietly today. Once everything is settled and the will is cleared up, you'll be allowed to go back."
Jiang Yu tilted her head, exuding an air of dominance. What was she invited here for by Bai Qin? Wasn't it to help brainstorm ideas and keep an eye on things? Otherwise, why would she come to watch the show, wait for Bai Xiuye to wake up, and then call out Deng Wei's name again?
Having said that, she asked Shen Ying and Bai Chen to surround Yin Yali. The woman, terrified, retreated repeatedly, her voice rising in fear:
"This is illegal detention. I'm going to file a lawsuit and make sure you regret it."
"Be honest, everyone here is from the Bai family. What you say won't make a difference. And even if the police come, it will be considered a domestic dispute. Do you really think that the young master of the Bai family has no connections at all after all these years?"
Think about it yourself, between you and Bai Qin, who would the police at the station trust more? Who would they be more willing to serve?
Jiang Yu spoke with remarkable composure, which greatly impressed Bai Qin. He hadn't expected that in such a chaotic situation, it would be this older sister who could help him and think of the details.
"you..."
Yin Yali was speechless for a moment, unsure how to defend herself. After all, the woman was right; compared to Bai Qin, she was inferior in influence.
"Qin, isn't this a bit inappropriate? She is, after all, your stepmother and your uncle's wife. If we do this, it will break her heart. If outsiders find out, they'll laugh at our Bai family."
Bai Ling, who had been silently standing by, tugged at Bai Qin's sleeve, signaling him not to act impulsively. He should always think about the future, otherwise, he might make a grave mistake and have no chance to regret it.
"Cousin, you shouldn't get involved in this matter. Although this woman is Dad's wife, what has she done all these years besides being two-faced?"
Now they're even trying to seize our assets. If we let her go today, we'll truly regret it when we find we've lost everything.
Bai Qin's words made Bai Ling, who wanted to continue dissuading him, lose her confidence. She glanced at Shen Ying, thinking that men probably wouldn't like a woman like Jiang Yu who was self-willed and lacked any spirit of dedication, and felt that he would be more likely to agree with her opinion.
Jiang Yu saw through her little scheme, smiled coldly, and thought to herself: It's a good thing Bai Qin's personality is the same as mine, otherwise the whole family would have been ruined by this saintly white lotus Bai Ling.
During the conversation, the operating room doors opened. Bai Xiuye was wheeled out by a nurse and transferred to a ward. The group followed closely behind, afraid of missing any important instructions from the doctor.
Yin Yali, as if possessed by a drama queen, threw herself onto the man, crying and sobbing, giving outsiders the impression that she was heartbroken for Bai Xiuye's suffering.
Everyone around her scoffed at her acting skills, watching her like a clown, letting this woman perform.
Yin Yali openly cried, but in reality, her eyes were already secretly observing her surroundings, thinking of finding a chance to slip away.
"Qin, find two trustworthy people to keep an eye on this woman, and don't even let Miss Bai Ling get close. Then, find the Bai family's lawyer as soon as possible and ask Commander Bai whether he has made a will."
By the way, it would be best to check his study; there might actually be a will there, just not this one.
In the corridor, Jiang Yu instructed Bai Qin on some unexpected but necessary tasks. This included even Bai Ling, the seemingly innocent but actually naive woman.
After all, there was also the concern that if this woman's saintly heart got the better of her and she let Yin Yali go, things would really get complicated if she joined forces with lawyers.
"good."
Bai Qin obeyed Jiang Yu's every word without question; this trust was innate.
After a while, once Bai's trusted confidants arrived, Jiang Yu and Shen Ying were ready to go back. Since Liu Cui was still at the Municipal People's Hospital, Bai Chen was worried and decided to go home with her as well.
"Sister, you'll come back, right?"
Before the woman left, Bai Qin grabbed her sleeve, reluctant to part. He worried that Jiang Yu wouldn't come back; after all, he had done more than enough.
But now, compared to Bai Ling, he relies on this woman more. So it's inevitable that he'll have some worries.
"Let's see how things go after An'an is discharged from the hospital and Qingyun's affairs are settled."
Unlike the other person's emotional outburst, Jiang Yu remained cold and indifferent, showing no trace of lingering affection. Recently, she had even neglected Mr. Gong Sheng's classes in the provincial capital to care for the ailing Shen An'an. Now, she was even less likely to be interested in Bai Xiuye, who would rather accept a fake heiress than choose her and who was even making things difficult for her.
Bai Qin nodded, like a well-behaved younger brother.
Bai Ling, who was about to leave, saw this scene and a trace of jealousy flashed through her mind.
