Both drove here, so they parted outside the cemetery.
“Be careful on the way back.” Chu Jiran smiled at Bai Weijin.
“I will.”
Watching Bai Weijin drive to the end of the road, Chu Jiran got into his car.
Bai Weijin didn’t want to go home. With mixed feelings, she parked the car by a bridge, where there were lots of night market booths and vendors. She got out of the car and went for a stroll.
Vendors were busy running their own business to make a living. Many walked across the bridge, mostly lovers holding hands.
Suddenly, Bai Weijin frowned.
In front of her was a woman besieged by several drunken men. Bai Weijin felt it necessary to stand up.
She approached them slowly and took out the cell phone from her pocket.
“Ah, don, don’t…”
Bai Weijin paused as she heard this. The woman turned out to be flirting with them.
She turned around, to find that the female voice was quite familiar.
When they stood in the streetlight, Bai Weijin took a careful look.
Bai Yinya?
‘How come she stays with the bad guys? Doesn’t Du Meihua discipline her daughter?’ Bai Weijin sneered.
“Have you drifted into prostitution, Miss. Bai?” She asked coldly.
Bai Yinya was as stiff as a board, her head bent. Those men were annoyed by the disturbance.
“Who are you to interrupt us?” A young yellow-haired man yelled at Bai Weijin.
When Bai Weijin’s face came into view, the youth swallowed nervously, not for her beauty but for her cold look.
A shiver ran through each of them.
They exchanged glances and then scattered away. After all, the woman seemed to have strong backing, and for them, the last person they’d afford to offend was the influential one.
Bai Yinya sank down on the ground, gasping for breath.
“Are you on the game now?” Bai Weijin stood with arms akimbo, looking down at Bai Yinya.
Bai Yinya gritted her teeth, “Bai Weijin, you drove me into a corner! It’s you!”
“Me? Did I force you to prostitute yourself?”
Her words seemed to touch the sore point with Bai Yinya. She buried her head in her hand and began to tremble.
“It’s your fault. My child, my child was gone… You all set me up…” She kept muttering, her body trembling with rage.
“Bai Yinya, you only have yourself to blame.” Bai Weijin never thought of lending her a hand.
As for the reason, the woman had drugged her wine twice; seduced her fiancée, making her a laughing stock; driven her out of Bai family with the help of Du Meihua; and framed her again and again.
“You seem to be particularly interested in engaged men. Tell me, how it feels to see your boyfriend seduced by another woman? You know what? Yeyu didn’t seduce him at all. It’s just his wishful thinking.”
“Shut up! I don’t want to hear that…” Bai Yinya was already on the verge of a breakdown. She suddenly stood up, pouncing on Bai Weijin.
Bai Weijin grabbed her arm and pushed her away easily.
Bai Yinya rose to her feet with all her strength but failed.
“Just stay here. Whatever depths you’d like to sink to, it’s none of my business. Remember, you reap what you sow.”
Having said that, Bai Weijin turned away and left.
She could stop punishing Bai Yinya—it was a total waste of effort.
…
Word got around that Gu Yeze dated many women recently.
At first, he brought Sun Xue to the company, then another woman. All in all, he kept changing his girlfriend faster and faster.
The women ranged from actresses to ladies of noble birth, and their beauty dazzled everyone.
However others looked at her, Bai Weijin could now remain cool. Even if Zhang Lanxin kept rattling on in her ear, she would not lose her composure.
“Sister Bai, Weijin, my dear head, President has cheated on you…” Before she finished, Bai Weijin cast a cold glance at her.
Zhang Lanxin immediately corrected herself, “He takes other women to the company every day to get you annoyed.”
Bai Weijin sorted out a pile of papers, replying, “Then what can I do? To kick them out?”
Zhang Lanxin was anxious, “Anyway, you need to go into action.”
“Of course I do. I’m busy. Go out to do your own work.” Bai Weijin waved Zhang Lanxin away.
“Sister Bai, how can you be so cool? Aren’t you afraid of losing President? Look at those women, each is puffed up with arrogance. Humph!” Zhang Lanxin clenched her fists while saying.
“I can do nothing if he really loves one of them,” spoke Bai Weijin in a careless way.
Zhang Lanxin stamped her foot and walked out of the room, for she was aware that Bai Weijin wouldn’t change her mind.
It was not until now that Bai Weijin showed a sad look.
Her indifference and composure disappeared. It had been several days since she and Gu Yeze were on speaking terms. Bai Weijin came to realize she shouldn’t take it out on Gu Yeze that day.
But his distrust of her when she had a row with Shi Qian also upset her.
Once upon a time, when she was alone, Bai Weijin never thought of being favored by anyone or felt someone would always back her up.
But falling in love with Gu Yeze made everything different.
She subconsciously felt no matter what happened, he would believe in her and stand on her side.
That was why she got so annoyed that day.
Bai Weijin leaned against the bookcase and rested her chin on one hand, lost in thought.
At first, she felt Gu Yeze did have an affair with Sun Xue. However, his taking different women to the company every day convinced her that he was making a show.
It occurred to Bai Weijin that the bite mark on Sun Xue’s neck was not very clear. Someone might have left it days ago.
But Sun Xue went downstairs from Gu Yeze’s office after less than half an hour.
She was sure of that.
Bai Weijin decided to go ask him herself.
