Chapter 381 - 126 Outsmart oneself Draw wood from under the cauldron_5
"I’m packing my luggage and moving to your place tomorrow; I can’t stay in this house for another minute,"
Ning Qinglin hugged her tightly with excitement, "Ranran, really?"
Bai Ran nodded desperately, "My sister-in-law is getting more and more mean. Just seeing her face annoys me. We don’t have to buy a house; I have several properties outside, we can live in any of them."
"How can that be alright, those are your houses...."
Bai Ran glared at him, "Do we still need to distinguish between mine and yours? What’s yours is mine, and what’s mine is yours."
Ning Qinglin smiled, "Alright, from now on, I’ll give you my salary card, my little housekeeper."
Bai Ran smiled with the corners of her mouth, "In the future, you’ll be responsible for making money and providing for the family, and I’ll be responsible for being as beautiful as a flower."
"I’ve looked at the calendar for our wedding date; I’ve set it for the 16th of next month. What do you think? Even though it’s a bit rushed, don’t worry, I’ll arrange everything properly and ensure you have an unforgettable wedding ceremony,"
Bai Ran smiled and hugged him tightly, "Okay, I’ll listen to you."
"Qinglin."
"Hmm?"
"I’ll tell you a secret on our wedding night."
"Okay."
Downstairs, the faint sound of Gu Chunrong’s scolding could be heard. Bai Ran frowned, stepped out of Ning Qinglin’s embrace, put on her coat, went to the window, and saw that the party had already dispersed.
By that time, Ning Qinglin had also put on his pants and came over with his clothes, "Get dressed, let’s go downstairs and see."
After changing, the two walked down from the upstairs.
Upon seeing them, Gu Chunrong immediately sneered, "Oh, look who decided to show up. Why don’t you two just sleep until tomorrow morning?"
Bai Ran flicked her hair and laughed lightly, "Sister-in-law, I have good news for you. Qinglin and I are getting married on the 16th of next month, we should start preparing at home."
Gu Chunrong immediately puffed up like an angry hen, "Marriage? I don’t agree."
"It doesn’t matter whether you agree or not," she said as she walked over to Ning Zihuan and took the sleeping Bai Xi from him.
Ning Qinglin glanced at Gu Chunrong indifferently, "Lady Bai, Ranran and I love each other sincerely. Whether you agree or not, I’m determined to marry her."
"You...." Gu Chunrong’s face shook with anger.
Bai Lun, thinking further ahead than Gu Chunrong, cupped his hands towards Ning Qinglin, "Mr. Ning, my wife is being impolite. Please forgive her. As for the wedding, we can discuss it further." After speaking, he glared harshly at Gu Chunrong, who snorted and reluctantly shut her mouth.
Bai Ran first put Bai Xi in the upstairs room, then went downstairs to see Ning Zihuan and Ning Qinglin off. As she entered the living room, Bai Lun, sitting upright and stern on the sofa, said coldly, "Ranran, aren’t you going to explain today’s events? Mr. Ning was here earlier, so I didn’t want to make things ugly. Don’t you consider us your family anymore, keeping everything from us?"
Gu Chunrong and Bai Ran both looked over, with Gu Chunrong’s eyes lifting at the corners, making her look particularly harsh.
"Your marriage to Ning Qinglin, your brother and I will never agree to it."
Bai Xiangxiang said softly, "Auntie, how did you get involved with the Ning family? You never let slip any hint before; you’ve kept it so well hidden."
Bai Ran scoffed, "What’s wrong with Ning Qinglin? What’s wrong with people from the Ning family? Are you afraid of offending Pei Qinghan? Hah...Let me tell you, I have to marry him, and your opposition is useless."
"You... you’re beyond reason," Bai Lun raised his hand high, about to slap Bai Ran across the face.
With her head held high, Bai Ran taunted, "If you’re capable, then hit me."
Bai Lun eventually lowered his hand, "Ranran, why have you become like this."
Bai Ran snorted, "It’s all because you forced me."
With that, she walked towards the upstairs. After a couple of steps, she glanced sideways and said indifferently, "I’m moving out of the Bai family tomorrow. That way, we won’t have to displease each other."
Bai Lun was furious, and a hint of triumph flashed in Gu Chunrong’s eyes; if the girl walked out that door, she would never be allowed back.
Bai Xiangxiang hesitated for a moment, "I’ll go talk to Auntie," she said as she followed Bai Ran.
"If you’re opposed to it as well, you’d better leave my room early," Bai Ran said as she opened her suitcase and began packing her clothes.
Bai Xiangxiang hesitated for a moment, then slowly sat down on the edge of the bed, "Auntie, do you really like him?"
Bai Ran turned her head to look at her niece. Bai Xiangxiang gazed back with clear, curious eyes.
Bai Ran sighed; she had been fond of her niece when she was a child, but now, the girl was becoming more and more like her sister-in-law.
"I’ll marry none but him," Bai Ran declared.
Bai Xiangxiang smiled, "Then that’s good. Actually, I’m on your side, Auntie. You should have left the Yun family’s den a long time ago; you deserve to pursue your happiness."
