Bai Yuejie looked at Shi Lingyan’s retreating figure, feeling an urge to laugh, yet also recognizing a sense of her own sadness.
Bai Yuejie stood up. "I’ll walk by myself."
Uncle Liu must not have left yet.
Uncle Liu, he would never abandon her.
Bai Yuejie’s tears flowed emptily, with unsteady steps she moved towards the outside.
Sure enough, their car was parked in the villa’s garden, just a few dozen meters from the door.
Uncle Liu saw Bai Yuejie coming out from afar and hurriedly got out of the car.
Bai Yuejie’s crying became fiercer, and with grievance she shouted, "Uncle Liu!"
Uncle Liu was startled and quickly approached, asking, "Miss, what’s wrong?"
Bai Yuejie couldn’t say anything, her mind flooded with Shi Lingyan’s decisively indifferent demeanor. She shook her head and said, "Let’s talk in the car."
Uncle Liu knew Bai Yuejie all too well.
Whether Bai Yuejie was acting or truly heartbroken, he could tell at a glance.
Uncle Liu’s expression grew grim.
He had thought, perhaps Missy’s spring had arrived.
But who would have thought that this Shi Lingyan, in less than half an hour, could bully her to this state!
After Bai Yuejie got into the car, she cried continuously, recounting the situation of Shi Lingyan begrudgingly accepting Tang Wu’s heart transplanted into her body.
Bai Yuejie, dabbing her tears, "I knew he wasn’t willing to accept it, I have known since three years ago, but he never considered how I felt. He told me not to come here again, even told me to get lost, I... *sob* *sob*, Uncle Liu, what should I do, he really hates me, I can feel it, he truly hates me now..."
"That’s not right," Uncle Liu gently patted Bai Yuejie’s back, "If he wanted to hate you, he would have hated you long ago, why would he start hating you now?"
Bai Yuejie didn’t understand either, sobbingly she speculated, "Could it be because he’s getting divorced recently? I know he has been meeting with lawyers drafting the Divorce Agreement, could it be that he doesn’t want me to get involved with him, so he wants me to give up?"
Uncle Liu contemplated it for a moment and felt that this possibility was unlikely.
"Uncle Liu, do you think it’s possible that he’s found out about our involvement in the car accident that year?"
"Impossible," Uncle Liu was very certain, "Even your parents don’t know about that incident, apart from you and me, only Fei’er knows, and Fei’er would never betray us."
Indeed, this matter was known only to her, Uncle Liu, and Dr. Fei’er.
The Bai couple knew nothing at all.
First, it was best for as few people as possible to know about this matter, to avoid leaving any flaws.
Second, it was because the couple’s foolish kindness, offering prayers every day, extending charity, and even donating a large part of their fortune to philanthropy, saying it was to amass virtue for her.
Heaven had not spared her because of their ’kindness’.
Or perhaps, their ’kindness’ had been rewarded to their biological daughter, and not a fraction of it had been beneficial to her!
Uncle Liu patted her back, "Don’t worry, we did it very cleanly. Even if they feel something is off, they won’t be able to find any evidence to incriminate us."
Bai Yuejie calmed down and a slight smile appeared on her face.
She had never hated Tang Wu as she did now.
Nor had she ever felt such relief, for she had gotten rid of that woman three years ago.
Shi Lingyan would probably never know the kind of parting gift she had given Tang Wu before her death.
And he would never know how desperate Tang Wu was in her final moments.
