Chapter 513 - 143 Whores match with dogs, forever and ever_3
Bai Xiangxiang’s smile froze on her face.
Pei Qinghan had already stepped onto the staircase, but it was Fu Bai who noticed her.
"Boss."
Pei Qinghan’s steps halted, and he turned his head.
Fu Bai gestured angrily with his mouth towards Bai Xiangxiang’s direction, "It seems Miss Bai has been waiting for a long time."
Pei Qinghan looked over with an indifferent gaze, and Bai Xiangxiang immediately revealed a shy smile, "Mr. Pei, today I came to...."
"Get her out of here." His indifferent words fell, and he turned his head, heading upstairs.
Fu Bai clicked his tongue, "That’s cold-hearted... The young beauty must be heartbroken." Although he said that, he secretly motioned to his subordinates, and two men in black approached Bai Xiangxiang upon receiving the instructions.
Ah Ling curled the corner of her mouth, she had fallen out of favor.
Bai Xiangxiang shook her head in panic, "No... Mr. Pei, you can’t do this to me, I came today because I have something very important to tell you." Bai Xiangxiang called out to his retreating figure.
His steps did not stop, gradually disappearing from her sight.
Grinding her teeth in secret, Bai Xiangxiang shouted, "It’s about that person, don’t you want to know, Mr. Pei? How could I know about the affairs between you two, aren’t you the least bit interested?"
"Bring her up." His words fell, disappearing at the entrance of the stairway.
Fu Bai raised his eyebrows, waving his hand at the men in black, "Bring her up."
The next moment, Bai Xiangxiang was propped up by two men in black like a criminal, with no chance to resist, and found herself standing in the study.
Pei Qinghan stood in front of the window, his tall figure particularly upright and clear-cut in the afterglow of the setting sun, and she watched, gradually losing herself.
"Qinghan~"
"My patience is limited; you’d better make it quick." The man’s cold voice seemed to freeze one’s soul.
Bai Xiangxiang’s gaze fell on the teacup placed on the desk, which Ah Ling had just brought over.
She hesitated for a moment, slowly moved over, flipped out a packet of medicine from her palm, and opened it...
"That person is Ji Yunya, right?"
Silence.
Her fingers trembled as she poured the medicine in, dissolving upon contact with water without leaving a trace.
Her heart was pounding so nervously, if Pei Qinghan suddenly turned around now, he would see what good deed she was up to, but it seemed like even the heavens were on her side, Pei Qinghan continued to stand by the window, his figure unmoved.
"My aunt married Ji Yunya’s father, so I’ve known her since I was a child. This hairpin, it was a gift from my aunt to me and Ji Yunya, one each for us...." She sighed softly at this point.
"I didn’t mean to deceive you on purpose; I just didn’t know what excuse to use to get close to you. The first time I saw you, I fell hopelessly in love with you, and because I was too afraid to lose you, I fabricated one lie after another. Qinghan, can you forgive me?" Such a gentle voice, tinged with a hint of pathetic sorrow, which could soften a man’s heart into a mess.
Unfortunately, that man did not include Pei Qinghan.
"Is this your answer? You can leave now." His voice was cold as ice.
Just the thought of being seen with this woman by that person made him extremely uncomfortable.
He felt a rage at being deceived, but even more so, he felt self-reproach, for he had truly been blind.
"Qinghan, I... "
"I said leave."
Bai Xiangxiang suddenly covered her face and ran out of the study.
Coming out of the study, she was crying so hard she could hardly catch her breath, appearing very pitiful, and her whimpers drifted through the crack of the door. She had been hoping to evoke the man’s pity, unaware that Pei Qinghan was extremely irritated at that moment.
"Leave." A chilly low growl came out through the crack of the door.
Bai Xiangxiang’s heart trembled, and under Ah Ling’s mocking gaze, she clenched her fist in secret.
"Sister Ah Ling, my stomach feels a bit uncomfortable, I’d like to use the restroom."
She’s really full of schemes, planning to pull some stunt?
"Follow me, Miss Bai." Ah Ling led her to the restroom.
Bai Xiangxiang had been inside for five minutes when Ah Ling asked from outside, "Miss Bai, how are you doing?"
The door cracked open, and Bai Xiangxiang, pale-faced, whispered, "Sister Ah Ling, I’ve started my period, I didn’t bring any sanitary pads, would you mind..." She said, lowering her head in embarrassment.
Ah Ling frowned but couldn’t leave her unattended, "Wait here, Miss Bai; I’ll get you some."
"Thank you, Sister Ah Ling."
After Ah Ling left, Bai Xiangxiang came out of the restroom and walked towards the study.
The medicine acts very quickly, and according to Pei Qinghan’s habits, he must have already had his drink, so the medicine should be taking effect by now.
