Bai Qinghao had dealt with Bai Jingrou swiftly. He was both ruthless and cruel.
If it was anyone else, they certainly would not have been able to do the same to Bai Jingrou, who had belonged to the Bai family.
The Bai family’s elders, for example, would definitely have hesitated.
Thankfully, however, the Bai family elders decided not to interfere in this matter.
Bai Qinghao was truly devoting his entire life to loving her.
Fang Xinxin recalled the unfortunate plight from her last life. At the thought that Bai Jingrou was now suffering the same pain she previously did, Fang Xinxin felt especially great.
Bai Qinghao glanced at his wife from the side. The deep love in her gaze could not be concealed and it caused his frozen heart to tremble. He brought her tightly into his arms and spoke hoarsely. “Xinxin, I’m sorry!”
“What’s wrong?” She asked. “Why are you apologising for no reason?”
“Thank god you’re alright.” He murmured. “If Bai Jingrou had succeeded in her schemes, I can’t imagine how much suffering you would be enduring right now. I can’t imagine how much my heart would be aching.”
She stiffened. In her previous life, hadn’t she been exactly that pitiful?
However, she did not repeat the same mistakes from her past life. Once was enough. “I don’t know about anything else, but I know with certainty that no matter what happens to me, even if I become paralysed and blind, you would never throw me away.”
In their previous life, he had even sacrificed his life for her useless one.
“Silly, I don’t even have enough time to dote on you. How could I possibly throw you away?” Bai Qinghao had known from the very moment he laid his eyes on her that he was irrevocably in love with her.
She leaned into his broad and firm embrace and felt her heart being filled with warm emotions.
…
In the Jing Xin Residence behind the old Bai Mansion’s main building, Bai Chenxi supported his mother in the living room and waved all the helpers away.
Huang Zhishu immediately reached for the drawer beneath the coffee table and retrieved a phone card which she had never used. She then dialled a number. “You have to save Jingrou. She is our daughter. Bai Qinghao plans on shooting her to death. He even plans on torturing her first…”
“It’s too late.” A middle-aged man responded. “Bai Qinghao moves too quickly. I’ve received news that Jingrou has already been blinded. Her legs have also been broken. She barely has half her life left with her. Even if we rescue her now, there’s no meaning to it. It will only increase the risk of us being exposed.”
“My god…” Huang Zhishu held onto the phone and began to sob. “What do we do, what do we do?”
“Jingrou insisted on keeping us a secret. She did this precisely to give us the opportunity to avenge her.” The man’s voice carried thick hatred. “We will give Jingrou the revenge she deserves!”
Huang Zhishu ended the call in tears.
Bai Chenxi stood by his mother’s side. He had overheard the call and understood that Jingrou was truly doomed. “Mom, don’t be upset.”
“How could I not be upset?” Huang Zhishu hugged her son in tears. “Jingrou is your sister. She is your birth sister, who shares a father and mother with you!”
“That is why, as our father says, I’ll get her the revenge she deserves.” Bai Chenxi gritted his teeth.
Huang Zhishu wiped her tears. “Your sister was ruined despite her intelligence. Chenxi, you cannot be rash.”
“Now that Sister’s schemes have been exposed, the Bai family members will definitely watch me closely.” Bai Chenxi narrowed his eyes. “I can’t do anything right now. We can only rely on Father’s hidden influence to deal with Bai Qinghao.”
“In the future, don’t mention your father anymore. If the people behind him learn of our relationship with him, everything will be over.”
“I understand.” Bai Chenxi was actually a rather tight-lipped person. Which intelligent person would dig a hole for themselves to fall in?
