Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Then, shouldn’t you tell me why you only target Jiang Youyi? We’ve been good friends for many years. If you want to target Jiang Youyi, I’ll help you. But then again, if Jiang Youyi is really a good child, I still don’t want to hurt her.”
Clearly, Mrs. Li’s impression of Jiang Youyi had changed, which was why she said this. Mrs. Bai immediately felt bad.
Mrs. Li had already asked directly, so Mrs. Bai had no choice but to answer. However, she could not tell the truth, so she began to act. Then, tears fell from her eyes. She looked so pitiful.
“Don’t cry! I only asked you a question. I didn’t say how you were!” Mrs. Li saw that she was crying and was a little at a loss.
Mrs. Li took out her handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes. Then, she sobbed and said, “We’ve been good friends for many years. You know my personality. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, I won’t beg you. As for why… Sigh! It’s all for Bai Bing. As long as my daughter can live well, it’s fine for me to bear some infamy.”
Mrs. Li was shocked and hurriedly asked, “What does this have to do with Bai Bing? Could it be that Bai Bing has a grudge against Jiang Youyi?”
“They don’t hold any grudges against each other, and they don’t know each other well, but they both like a man—Lu Yunxiao.” Mrs. Li’s cries gradually subsided, and she only choked for a moment.
“Lu Yunxiao?” Mrs. Li immediately reacted. “You mean, Jiang Youyi and Lu Yunxiao…”
“That’s right! The two of them are always on the trending searches, so I can’t help but suspect. Also, Chairman Lu invited our family to his house alone previously. A high and mighty person like Chairman Lu rarely invites people to his house alone. There must be a reason for him to treat our family like this.” “Chairman Lu thinks highly of Bai Bing, right?”
Mrs. Li nodded slightly. “I think so! It’s not that our Bai Bing is outstanding. Perhaps Chairman Lu thinks that our Bai Bing is of good quality and is suitable to be their daughter-in-law. You should know that I’m also good friends with the deceased Mrs. Lu. Bai Bing and Lu Yunxiao have known each other since they were young. They have a foundation of feelings and know each other very well. She’s better than a girl like Jiang Youyi, right?”
Hearing Mrs. Bai’s words, Mrs. Li could understand. “You’re right about this.”
“In the beginning, Jiang Youyi broke up with Xu Yuning. Then, on the day of the wedding, she scammed Lu Yunxiao and was on the trending searches with him. Actually, I didn’t care much about it, but as time passed, I realized that Jiang Youyi is very scheming and can always get close to Lu Yunxiao. You know that my Bai Bing is an innocent child and doesn’t beat around the bush, so she naturally has to suffer a little.”
“Now that you mention it, I understand. But why didn’t you ask Bai Bing to look for me? I’m her aunt. I’ll definitely help her.”
“Bai Bing is a shy child. Why would she look for you for such a matter? These few days, she hasn’t been sleeping well or eating well because of this matter. She has lost a lot of weight. Seeing her like this, as her mother, I naturally don’t feel good. That’s why I asked you for help. Sigh!”
After Mrs. Bai finished speaking, she held her forehead. It seemed like she was having a headache over this matter.
Mrs. Li’s heart ached when she saw this. They were both people with daughters, so they could naturally understand some things. “Since you’re doing this for the child, I can figure it out. But don’t let my Old Li know. Old Li has always been old-fashioned and unreasonable. If he finds out, he might have a problem with you.”
“Got it.”
“It’s all in the past. Don’t be too conflicted. I don’t think our family will have any contact with the Jiang family. Don’t worry about this matter.” Mrs. Li said this because she didn’t blame Mrs. Bai for targeting Jiang Youyi previously.
Mrs. Bai heaved a long sigh of relief. This matter was finally over. It seemed that Mrs. Li was still on her side after her godly actions. Of course, she was happy.
The reason why she acted like this was because she didn’t want Mrs. Li to hate her. Now that the Li family’s status in Ocean City was like the sun in the sky, she didn’t want to offend this big tree. She might have to ask her for help in the future.
However, Bai Bing seemed to be really hurt this time. After the banquet, she did not go to work the next day and locked herself in her room.
Jiang Youyi was overjoyed. She found three partners in a day and two of them had already invested. Although Ji Chu had yet to agree, he would not reject her under normal circumstances..
