Chapter 2667 - 2682: Her Unusual Behavior 5

Bai Ruiqing nodded, "Yes, you weren’t mistaken."

"Oh my god, that woman is back again! Hasn’t she harmed our family enough? Now she’s here to cause trouble again!" Bai’s mother felt like her heart was about to stop working properly.

"Let’s go see a doctor first." Bai Ruiqing guided his mother out of the car while he went to park it.

Bai’s mother had no choice but to get out of the car first, and as Bai Ruiqing drove away, she was still thinking about Bai Jingqing and Bai Qianqian.

Bai’s mother had always thought Bai Qianqian was dead, and never imagined she was actually still alive.

Bai Ruiqing drove to the parking lot, quickly pulled out a pack of cigarettes, took one out, and lit it. He smoked it quickly and then got out of the car to find his mother.

...

In the car.

"Are you tired?" Bai Jingqing held her hand.

"Not really, but you, have you been waiting outside for me all this time?" Bai Qianqian leaned her head on his shoulder.

"Yeah." Bai Jingqing replied, stroking her face, and said, "You’ve had a hard day."

"They’re my family, what’s so hard about that?" Bai Qianqian interlocked her fingers with his.

"I have a question for you."

"Go ahead," Bai Jingqing said, driving with one hand while holding her hand even tighter.

"If I weren’t here, would you fall in love with Bai Ran?" Bai Ranran looked up at him.

"No!" Bai Jingqing answered firmly, without a hint of hesitation.

"Why? Xiao Ran is actually prettier than me."

"I like you. It’s never been about your looks!" Bai Jingqing turned his head to kiss her on the forehead.

Bai Qianqian, "..."

Should she be happy or not?

"So why were you with Mi Qingwei back then?" Bai Qianqian was really curious about this question.

Bai Jingqing frowned, "Why bring her up?"

"Why not? Your ex-girlfriend is still your girlfriend, I’m just curious."

"Because I was young and naive."

Bai Jingqing only said those few words, and when Bai Qianqian pushed further, he refused to say anything more, only repeating, "Young and naive."

"This weekend, I have to accompany my big brother to a charity banquet, so I won’t be able to be with you and Chu Xi." Bai Jingqing changed the subject, simultaneously lifting her hand to his lips to kiss it.

"This weekend... do you need a date?"

"Hmm? You want to go?" Bai Jingqing looked at her in surprise, not expecting her to be interested in this.

"Yeah, staying at home all the time is making me moldy, can you take me?" Bai Qianqian leaned over to kiss his cheek.

"But..."

"What? Is it inconvenient?" Disappointment flashed in Bai Qianqian’s eyes.

"Alright..." Bai Jingqing agreed almost without thinking, unable to bear seeing her disappointed look. Even if Bai Qianqian furrowed her brows slightly, it tugged at his heart.

He only wanted to see her as carefree and happy as she used to be.

Bai Qianqian lowered her eyelashes, hiding the emotions in her eyes.

...

Gu Qingxin sent over the gown designs that her assistant had previously forwarded to her due to a client’s urgent need.

The assistant immediately replied with an okay hand gesture.

"Money truly is what moves you the most," the assistant wrote back.

Because this gown was needed urgently, the client offered a high price, and they now planned to expedite its production due to the weekend deadline for delivery.

"A tycoon’s money is there to be earned," Gu Qingxin replied quite openly.

The assistant sent back a series of thumbs-up emojis.
