“Is that so?” Fang Xinxin thought back. “At the time, I was sitting in our courtyard. It was late at night and I was able to see clearly in the moonlight…”
“Fang Xinxin, I said you saw wrongly!” Fang Manxue was furious.
“We’re talking about you right now!” She was afraid Fang Xinxin would refuse to let go of that matter.
“All right, let’s just pretend that your elopement with Bai Chenxi was a misunderstanding.”
“What do you mean by ‘pretend’?” Fang Xinxin spoke unhurriedly.
“It was a misunderstanding.” She glanced at Bai Qinghao who was standing on the side with a cold expression. He was really unbelievably handsome. “Bai Qinghao, you have to believe in me!”
In the past, she always avoided Bai Qinghao. Right now, there was barely any trust between them. “Even if you can’t believe me, you have to believe in Bai Chenxi.”
Fang Manxue appeared as though she had heard a joke. “Third Sister, have you gone silly? You want CEO Bai to believe in the man who eloped with you?”
“You have to believe that Bai Chenxi… isn’t interested in me. He would never elope with me.” Fang Xinxin sat on the bed and looked at Bai Qinghao seriously.
“Bai Chenxi is someone who judges people based on appearances. He doesn’t like my appearance, and he would never give up the Bai family’s glory for my sake. Bai Qinghao, I’m sure you understand him well. Isn’t that right?”
Her words made sense. Bai Qinghao minded the matter very much. He had claimed to believe her back at the hospital, but her attachment to Bai Chenxi had been going on for many years. It was difficult to actually do so.
It was only in this moment that the shard in his heart was properly removed, and he finally believed that she hadn’t intended to elope with him.
He approached the bed and reached out to touch Fang Xinxin’s face. “I believe in you.”
The four words were sincere.
It became clear to Fang Manxue that she could no longer use this matter against Fang Xinxin. She felt very stifled.
She was also dumbstruck by the sight of Bai Qinghao gently caressing Fang Xinxin’s acne-covered face!
Didn’t they say that Bai Qinghao disliked touching women? Furthermore, Fang Xinxin was so ugly.
Didn’t he mind Fang Xinxin’s uneven complexion?
If she had known Bai Qinghao wasn’t picky at all, and would even touch such an ugly woman, she wouldn’t have stuck to hints. She would have thrown herself into his embrace.
Damn it. Didn’t Fang Xinxin dislike Bai Qinghao the most? Why wasn’t she moving away…
Smoke was about to come out of Fang Manxue’s ears.
“Qinghao, I was in Bai Chenxi’s car late at night because I wanted to make you jealous. Please don’t be angry at me.” Fang Xinxin scattered a bunch of dog food right before Fang Manxue’s eyes.
“All right. I’m not angry.” Bai Qinghao’s typically cold and heavy voice had turned soft. He was overjoyed that Fang Xinxin was not avoiding his touch.
In the past, he wasn’t allowed to even touch her sleeves. She had been like a hedgehog, unlike her current obedient appearance.
He continued in a gentle tone. “Don’t put yourself down again. There’s nothing wrong with being fat. You are adorable. Bai Chenxi doesn’t know how to appreciate you because he has poor tastes.”
Fang Xinxin was moved by his words. “You’re so good to me…”
Bai Chenxi’s hand paused against her cheek. He hoped that she genuinely felt that way.

Fang Manxue gritted her teeth and reminded him. “CEO Bai, since you find my third sister’s fat body adorable, do you also like her acne-covered face and her dark skin?”
“She’s really beautiful.” Bai Qinghao responded mildly.
Fang Manxue’s teeth almost broke due to gritting them hard. “Are you speaking ironically? My third sister has such an ugly… special face. You find her beautiful?”
