Chapter 792: Chapter 766: Sky-high Price Couple Rings 3
Lowering his head, he saw blood still smeared on his brother’s body. It was her blood…
Ever since Bai Jingqing got drunk that one time, he returned to his usual self and was spending almost all of his time at the hospital, never returning home.
Bai Qianqian’s uncle’s charges for corruption and bribery were established, and Bai’s mother successfully took back the company, returning to her position as both the chairman and the president.
The villa that was sold by the uncle was bought back by Bai’s mother, and the debt owed to the hospital was fully paid up.
With the house reclaimed, the three women of the Bai family naturally had to move back in. As they were packing their belongings, Bai Qianqian couldn’t help but walk over to her room’s window and look towards Bai Jingqing’s apartment.
Many days had passed, and Bai Jingqing’s apartment was always shrouded behind drawn curtains. It was clear that he hadn’t been coming home.
Bai Qianqian gazed at his house a few more times, just as she was about to leave, the curtains suddenly opened, and Bai Jingqing’s figure appeared in the window.
Bai Qianqian’s heart leapt at the sight, and just as she was about to turn around and leave for his apartment, she saw a woman appear by his side. She could not see the woman’s face clearly but could see that their interaction was intimate.
No wonder he hadn’t sought her out lately. It turns out he had found someone new…
Just a while ago, Bai Qianqian was always hoping that he wouldn’t call her, but why couldn’t she feel happy knowing that he finally was with another woman?
A sense of loss faintly swept over her heart.
“Qianqian, have you actually invited Doctor Bai to dinner? I think we should thank him before we move out,” asked Bai’s mother as she walked in.
Bai Qianqian wanted to lie to her mother that the invitation had been extended, but the words wouldn’t come out of her mouth.
She hadn’t. It was only now that she realized how much Bai Jingqing had helped her during this period. He’d assisted her with the most important aspects of her life.
If she hadn’t had Bai Jingqing, what would her life be like? That thought alone made her feel suffocated.
“You are so unreliable! Never mind, I’ll invite him myself. Hurry up and pack.” Bai’s mother waved her off and left the room.
Bai Qianqian looked back at Bai Jingqing’s apartment one more time. Suddenly, she realized that he was also staring over at her direction. Their eyes met, and Bai Qianqian hurriedly turned her gaze away…
“Cousin, what are you looking at?” Ling Ruirui asked as she approached him.
“Is it that girl I saw in your office last time? Tell me, who is she? What stage is your relationship in?”
“If you’re here to plead on behalf of my mother, I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed. I have no plans to look for a girlfriend,” Bai Jingqing replied indifferently as he walked back to his sofa.
“So you have no plans to find a girlfriend? Or has your heart already been taken?” Ling Ruirui moved to the sofa, coyly flicking her long, curly hair to one side.
“You don’t have to keep it from me. It’s that girl from your office last time, isn’t it? She may not be pretty, but she seems quite innocent.”
“I think she’s quite attractive, at least more so than you,” Bai Jingqing replied flatly, giving her a glance.
“Oh, you admit it! Now auntie won’t have to worry anymore,” Ling Ruirui laughed happily.
“You better not let my mother know about it, and especially not Rui Qing,” Bai Jingqing told her about the situation with Bai Qianqian.
