Chapter 22 The Truth About the Miscarriage
Lili added a touch of sincerity to her voice, and the disdain in her eyes lessened.Gu Qingcheng didn't want things to get too heated: "Where is Miss He's point If it's a misunderstanding, just clear i...Masters clash, each move a deadly strike.
Su He was dumbfounded watching Gu Qingcheng act tough and Shen Zhao Lin played along, forcing Bai Mang to beat Bai Yiyang right there and then.
To quell Shen Zhaolin's fury, he acted ruthlessly, even using the wolf-tooth staff that Gu Qingcheng had kindly given him.
"You almost kicked me to death, Young Master Huo already punished me, what else do you want" White Yiyang, clutching his head and running away, roared desperately at Su He, "Don't you want to see my dad beat me to death"
Su He only then realized that his swollen face, resembling a pig's head, was Huo Chen Xi's handiwork.
Although I don't know why Huo Chenxi took action, seeing Bai Yiyang with a bruised nose and swollen face still feels quite satisfying.
"Bai Shao, you're really interesting," Gu Qingcheng said unhappily. "Your father disciplined you because you were wrong in the first place. What does it have to do with my little girl"
Shen Zhaolin also crossed his arms and said casually, "Mr. Bai, you'd better go home and discipline your son."
This is not willing to compromise.
Bai Mang's face turned pale green, and he kicked Bai Yiyang hard in the calf, forcing him to kneel down. He snarled fiercely: "You insolent thing! If Miss Su doesn't forgive you, you just stay kneeling!"
Bai Yiyang refused to accept it, meeting Bai Mang's warning gaze, he had no choice but to yield. He gritted his teeth and knelt down, motionless.
Jian Xin approached, intending to reach for Su He's hand, but it was evaded with a casual flick. She didn't seem embarrassed at all, instead she boldly said, "Miss Su, he was just momentarily confused. As long as you are willing to forgive him, you can ask him to do anything."
Su He knew Gu Qingcheng and Shen Zhao Lin were standing up for her, so she took the opportunity to smile sweetly and say, “I think he's quite smart, inheriting Mrs. Bai's good qualities. I'm the one who is uneducated and bringing shame upon my parents.”
Jian Xin's pure smile froze on her face, knowing that Su He was referring to the incident at the tea restaurant last time where she had been humiliated.
"Who dares say you're uncultured" Shen Zhaolin's face instantly turned sour.
Gu Qingcheng also wore a furious expression: “Which nosy thing dared to meddle in my family's affairs”
Bai Mang saw the situation and knew that he couldn't easily settle it. He reluctantly said some polite words, and left with Jian Xin and Bai Yiyang in a hurry.
As soon as he got home, Bai Mang was so angry that he went on a rampage, smashing many porcelain items.
"You're being too much! Without the Shen family, who would even know who Shen Zhaolin is!"
"A little wretch, taken away twenty years ago, probably wouldn't be clean anymore. He has the nerve to act tough and doesn't even know what he is!"
Bai Yiyang and Jian Xinjun hurriedly agreed, but were severely scolded.
"If Yangyang were to marry her, wouldn't he be easily controlled" Jian Xinjun thought of a brilliant idea.
Once a woman is married, it's easy for her in-laws to control her. Even a princess can become a servant.
Bai Yiyang retorted, "I would never marry such a fierce and stupid woman..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Jian Xinjun glared at her, scaring her into silence.
Bai Mang thought for a moment, feeling that this idea wasn't bad. But she was worried that Bai Yiyang wouldn't be able to handle Su He, Gu Qingcheng, and Shen Zhao Lin being so difficult; she feared they wouldn't let Su He marry him.
From Bai Yiyang's complaints, we learned about Bai Mang and Jian Xinxin's schemes against Su He. Bai Yihua, who had just been discharged from the hospital, proactively offered a plan: "I have a way!"
"If you were truly capable, you wouldn't be in this predicament, unable to even marry into the Huo family. You couldn't even keep the engagement that we painstakingly arranged." Bai Mang scoffed with disdain, warning her, "If you can't handle Huo Chen Xi, then abort this child and accept the arranged marriage."
Bai Yihuan lowered her head silently, her teeth clenched tightly against her lip until a coppery tang spread at the corner of her mouth.
She will make Huo Shenxi agree to marry her, and she also has a way to make Su He have to marry Bai Yiyang.
When the phone rang, Su He was busy working.
She glanced at the unfamiliar phone number and didn't answer it. Unexpectedly, the same number kept calling persistently for several times.
Concerned that something urgent had happened, Su He picked up the phone and was surprised to hear Bai Yihuan's voice.
"I'm very busy now, no time." Su He felt there was no need to deal with her and wanted to hang up the phone, but Bai Yihuan panicked.
"Uninterested in engagement invitations, what's the truth about your miscarriage"
Su He's finger was already on the hang-up button. Hearing her voice, she hesitated to let go, stiffly asking, "What did you say"
Bai Yihuan gave an address: "If you want to know, come over. I'll wait for you for half an hour."
Su He looked at the hung-up phone, after much struggle, still asked for leave and rushed over.
A teahouse under the bamboo grove, with water pavilions and ornate buildings, a melodious zither fills the air.
Su He, in a water-green cheongsam, followed the staff through the corridors and arrived at the lakeside pavilion with gauze curtains hanging on all sides.
Bai Yihuan was already seated there, leisurely arranging the tea set.
A warm quilt, washing tea, brewing tea.
Every gesture is graceful.
Su He walked over and sat down opposite her.
Bai Yihuan smiled and handed over a cup of freshly brewed tea: "You're just in time, try my craft."
Su He didn't answer, staring straight at her and asking bluntly, "Miss Bai, what did you mean on the phone"
Bai Yihuan placed the hot tea in front of her, saying calmly, "Before, at the hospital, Ms. Su insisted on me answering her questions before leaving. Now, I want to ask Ms. Su to drink tea and listen to a story before I answer your question."
Su He's gaze fell on the tea, its color a tender green, fragrant and alluring. For a moment, she lingered on it before shifting her eyes to Bai Yihuan.
Bai Yihuan gestured for someone to please her and poured herself a cup, savoring it delicately.
Su He, seeing this, raised his teacup and finished it in one gulp.
She drank too hastily and choked, coughing violently for a while.
“I really dislike you.” Bai Yihuan glared at her, saying disdainfully.
Su He didn't mind, wiping his mouth: "Coincidentally, I don't like you either."
Bai Yihuan's gaze was complex: "I really don't understand, did the old lady get sick and damage her brain How could she like you, and force Chen Xi to marry you."
Su He raised an eyebrow and said nothing.
Bai Yihuan tried every possible means to gain approval from Grandma Huo, but she failed. Instead of agreeing to marry Huo Chenxi, she was forced to go abroad.
“However, you are indeed quite capable. After I finally managed to get you out of the Huo family, you became the sought-after Shen family heiress.” Bai Yihuan calculated the time, her eyes suddenly becoming venomous and resentful. She said, “I put in every ounce of effort to achieve what I wanted, but you got it without lifting a finger. It's just too unfair!”
Su He frowned, suddenly feeling a blurriness in her vision. She sensed something was wrong and pushed herself up on the table with both hands: “What did you do”
Before Bai Yihuan could answer, her body went limp and she collapsed onto the table.
Looking at Su He who was sleeping soundly, Bai Yihuan scoffed, "A divorced woman married again and managed to marry Bai Yiyang. It's quite a stroke of luck."
Ring for someone prearranged. She commanded in a low voice, “Go out the back door and send her to Bai Yiyang’s room at the hotel.”
Things were progressing more smoothly than expected. Bai Yihuan had gotten another set of teacups, gently caressing her stomach with one hand while holding a teacup in the other, contentedly enjoying the aroma.
Without Su He as a stumbling block, Huo Chenxi would marry her.
"Oh no," the man panicked and ran over, "Miss Bai, Young Master Huo came personally and took the person away!"
"Crash!" The teacup fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.
Bai Yihuan suddenly stood up, and for a moment, he felt dizzy. His whole body seemed to fall into an abyss, filled with panic and confusion.ike him in the face.Long Mao was not weak either, and immediately retaliated with a punch."Stop!" Looking at the two people fighting, Su He shouted.Long Mao stopped immediately, but he was punched an...
