An Exclusive love-Chapter 374 - Bai Ziqi Was Courting Death
Xie Hong was a very smart woman, so Wen Pintang chose her as Mrs. Wen.
“I can bring you the glory and respect, but I can’t give you love. If you like, we will register for marriage tomorrow.” This was what Wen Pintang said when they were about to marry. Xie Hong had thought that he would not fall in love with anyone. However, when she accidentally learned that at every Christmas, Wen Pintang would send gifts to someone in S City, she knew that a woman had already lived in his heart.
Later, she knew about Xin Qing. Xie Hong tried to find all the information about that woman. Then she was like a bystander, looking Wen Pintang stare at the woman he loved in the distance year after year but neither bother her nor forget her.
So, she also chose to be silent. It originally was a marriage without love; why bothered to care who he loved?
Looking at the man who slowly walked in the door, Xie Hong smiled and greeted him, “You are here!”
“Yeah,” Wen Pintang reached out and asked, “Where is Zeyu?”
Xie Hong took him by the arm. To outsiders, they seemed to be made for each other, just like a heaven-made couple when they stood there.
“Over there, your son is pleasing a girl!”
Wen Pintang saw two kids eating snacks on the sofa. The little boy flushed while peeking at the little girl. He smiled and said, “Jiang Rui’s daughter?”
“Yeah.” Xie Hong pointed to Chen Chen, who was standing beside Jiang Rui. “Her mom.”
“Let’s say hello to them!” Wen Pintang wore his usually gentle and warm smile, thinking of Xin Qing’s words.
He asked Xin Qing before if she had known Chen Chen’s identity, but Ying Qingcang stopped her from revealing the truth. However, when he left, Xin Qing once gave him a hint.
“Do you like playing mahjong?” Xin Qing asked him.
Wen Pintang smiled and said, “When do you have such a hobby?”
“Occasionally, I would play a few rounds of mahjong, and I really want to claim the pure character (“Wan” in Chinese) tiles to win.”
“I got it!”
Chen Chen was the daughter of Boss Wan. Wen Pintang remembered that the youngest daughter of Boss Wan never appeared in public. It was said that she disappeared more than ten years ago. In fact, Chen Chen’s identity was not important to him, but Xin Qing saw that he was worried about her, so she told him in that way that Chen Chen was one of her own.
Wen Pintang was somewhat pleased that at least Xin Qing cared about his feelings. If he had the opportunity of fair competition, Ying Qingcang would definitely lose to himself…
“Hello, I am Wen Pintang.” He stood in front of Chen Chen.
Chen Chen was being taken by Jiang Rui as the background, when she suddenly heard someone talk to her. Then she turned around in surprise, and saw a man smiling at her.
“Are you Mr. Wen?” She saw Xie Hong take the man by the arm and understood his identity.
Jiang Rui had already seen Wen Pintang early. He saw him take the initiative to talk to Chen Chen, frowning and turning around to say, “Have you already finished your things?” He showed a meaningful smile and said, “Fairly fast.”
“Yeah.” Wen Pintang looked at him, thinking that Jiang Rui probably did not know Chen Chen’s identity, well…
Xie Hong saw the two men seem to have something to say, taking Chen Chen away. “Let’s go there to eat and talk.”
Chen Chen looked up at Jiang Rui; glancing at her high-heeled shoes, Jiang Rui nodded.
When the two women walked away, Wen Pintang said, “She doesn’t seem to like you.”
“So what? She is my lawful wife.” Jiang Rui did not care. Anyway, as for his feelings about Chen Chen, he was just eager to investigate her now.
Wen Pintang glanced at him and said, “Don’t be so proud. The prouder you are in love, the more miserable ending you will have.”
“Like you?”
“I’ve never been allowed to play the game; how could I have a chance to lose?” Wen Pintang shook his head. With regard to Xin Qing, he did not even have the chance to lose…
Jiang Rui took a sip of red wine, and gave a questioning look all over Wen Pintang’s face. “I heard that your brother had returned to the Wen family, right?”
“Alas, ruin five companies in seven years. I really wonder if he had any brains in his head.” When it came to his younger brother, Wen Pintang was helpless.
Jiang Rui laughed contemptuously. “I believe you have inherited all the intelligence, leading to only water in his head.”
Chen Chen and Xie Hong were sitting beside their kids and chatting, and no one disturbed them. The persons who knew them, just nodded to say hello; as for those who didn’t know them, they didn’t dare to go up to them.
“Mom, I want to go to the bathroom.” Wen Zeyu said with a persistently red face. Tuan Zi jumped off the sofa and said, “I will go, too!”
Xie Hong took a kid in each hand, “Well, I see that you are not accustomed to the high-heeled shoes; you can just sit here, and I will lead them.”
Chen Chen nodded, and her ankles began to hurt. It was all Jiang Rui’s fault to let her accompany him. She took a glass of orange juice and leaned on the sofa. Today, she wore a long white dress made of brocade to emphasize her shapely body. Furthermore, the makeup made her more brightly glamorous, and many men were secretly stealing a glance at her.
Of course, there were always some daredevils to accost her.
“Mrs. Jiang.” A strange man sat down next to her.
Chen Chen quietly moved further from her, keeping a vigilant watch over the man.
“Don’t you remember me? We have met before,” Bai Ziqi wore a smile that he thought was charming and handsome, “at the Shuixie Restaurant.”
What? Chen Chen opened her mouth and made a gesture of shooting. With the corner of his mouth twitching, Bai Ziqi said, “You may not have mentioned that.”
“Well, will you come to revenge for your sister?” Chen Chen nervously gripped the glass in her hand, thinking that as long as the guy dared to hit her, she would kill him with the glass.
Bai Ziqi was speechless. “I will not do anything to you in public; I just want to say hello.”
Chen Chen did not believe his words at all. “Has your sister been discharged from the hospital?”
“Not yet.” Bai Ziqi suddenly lowered his voice. “If she is discharged from the hospital, she will definitely come to you.”
Chen Chen was shocked and asked, “Why will she come to me? It was not me who kicked her.”
“But you have her man!” Bai Ziqi shrugged. “Let me warn you that if my sister goes crazy, it’s extremely terrible.” Seeing that Chen Chen was still in a daze, Bai Ziqi took the opportunity to sit closer to her. “However, I can protect you!”
Chen Chen didn’t even hear what he said at all. She was thinking about how to ask Jiang Rui to help her get rid of Bai Weirong.
“Damn you, what are you doing?” A roar came and Bai Ziqi was thrown out.
“Little… Little uncle?”
Jiang Qianren’s face clouded, “Chen Chen, have you not seen him want to feel you up?”
Chen Chen bowed her head in shame, and she really didn’t find that…
“Don’t blame her, she has always been so slow to respond.” Jiang Rui slowly walked over, while Wen Pintang next to him wore a weird smile.
Seeing Jiang Rui, Jiang Qianren began to shout at him immediately, “How do you care for your wife? Also, what are you doing with this man?”
“We were just talking.” Wen Pintang said lightly, which made Jiang Qianren even angrier. He had always believed that both of them like Xin Qing, but Wen Pintang married another woman. In his opinion, it was a kind of betrayal.
So he went against him all the time. Jiang Rui didn’t understand such a childish idea at all.
“Mr. Bai? Mr. Bai?” Lu Qi nudged the man who fell on her skirt. Bai Ziqi sat up with his hand on the waist, tearing off Lu Qi’s skirt.
Jiang Rui turned his gaze, just like a poisoned dagger, to him. “Do you want to die? Tell me if you want, and I’ll help you right away.”
Bai Ziqi did not dare to look at Jiang Rui, shouting at Jiang Qian angrily. “Jiang Qianren! How dare you throw me out?”
“Humph, even if your father is here, I dare to throw him out, let alone you!” When Jiang Qianren just finished his words, an old voice sounded. “Kid, now I am here, do you also want to throw me out?”
Xie Hong had returned, surprised to see the old man. “This is Bai Li, the head of the Bai family.” She whispered in Chen Chen’s ear, “I wonder why he comes here.”
Generally, such a kind of dance party would be attended by the young generations. The old generations, such as Jiang Rui’s grandfather, would not appear; also, they didn’t like this kind of occasion. Bai Li suddenly appeared because he hurried to rush here when he heard that Jiang Rui had arrived.
His granddaughter was still lying in the hospital, and he had no choice but to ask for an explanation. The whole population of the city were all waiting for the Bai family’s response, and the matter could not be over in this way.
“Jiang Rui, it is harder to see you than see the chairman.” Bai Li said half-jokingly, gazing sharply at Chen Chen.
Chen Chen gazed back at him unceremoniously. Was she a soft touch so that everyone wanted to push her over?
“Dad!” Tuan Zi ran up to Jiang Rui, and Jiang Rui picked her up. “Tuan Zi, called Grandpa Bai.”
Tuan Zi wore a sweet smile. “Grandpa Bai, nice to meet you!”
Bai Li coughed, and he couldn’t frown at a child, so he pretended to smile and said, “Nice to meet you…”
“Grandpa!” Seeing his backer arrived, Bai Ziqi immediately put on a fierce look. “Why do you talk to such a bastard…?”
“Shut up!”
“You are courting death.” Jiang Rui waved his hand. Then three people appeared out of nowhere; Xiao Si and Scar broke Bai Ziqi’s arms, while Bear grabbed his neck all at once.
Bai Li said anxiously, “Jiang Rui, calm down and release him first.”
“The second time.” Jiang Rui looked at him coldly. “This is the second time he insulted my daughter.”
“I can apologize for him.” Not far away, a few people rushed in, and among them, a man with glasses said in a panic, “Hurry up, hurry to save him!”
Bai Li reached out and said, “Stop!”
“Dad, Ziqi is almost killed.” Bai Kai said while winking at his men.
“Bear, anyone who dares to touch you would be considered to commit treason.” Hearing Jiang Rui’s words, no one dared to take action.
Bai Kai shivered all over with anger. “Jiang Rui, what do you base your words on? Treason? Who gives you the right?”
There was another stir at the door, and they could vaguely hear the sound of running uniformly.
Two troops of fully armed soldiers ran in, uniformly giving a salute to Jiang Rui.
“Hail to the Chief!”
The roar was so magnificent and overwhelming that many people had shrunk their necks.
Lu Qi admiringly stared at the man in the middle, clenching her fists and slipping away quietly when no one paid attention to her…
“Take him back.” Jiang Rui pointed to Bai Ziqi who looked green.
Bai Li took a step forward. “Jiang Rui, your grandfather and I have been friends for decades. But I am going to risk losing my face today,” He said one word at a time, “you can take my grandson away over my dead body.”
