Chapter 583 - 564: She Must Also Taste the Pain of Loss
Lou Xi didn’t sleep well at night, haunted by nightmares.
Now resting in Qin Mobai’s arms, her mind relaxed, and she quickly felt sleepy. Eventually, she couldn’t hold her eyelids any longer and fell asleep.
When she woke up again, it was already past eleven o’clock.
Qiao Bi’er’s exhibition officially opens at noon.
"Mo Bai, could you call Bai Lu over? Let her stay with me, while you go to the exhibition."
Qin Mobai knew Lou Xi didn’t want him to miss the opening of his mother’s art exhibition. It was significant to him and the late Qiao Bi’er.
"I’ll be back soon."
"No need to hurry, Bai Lu will take care of me."
Lou Xi’s sensibility and obedience made Qin Mobai feel particularly tenderhearted.
Twenty minutes later, Lu Li brought Bai Lu over.
Bai Lu’s face clearly showed signs of crying. Initially, only the Qin family knew about Lou Xi’s miscarriage, and the news hadn’t spread, so Bai Lu naturally didn’t know.
She only found out when Qin Mobai called her earlier. She and Lu Li were waiting at the exhibition hall for the opening, but unexpectedly received such news.
Qin Mobai had instructed beforehand not to mention anything about the child to Lou Xi, so Bai Lu swallowed her comforting words.
Qin Mobai was still uneasy, kissed Lou Xi on the forehead, and then left the room.
Outside the ward, Qin Mobai instructed the bodyguards to keep watch. He had arranged staff throughout the entire hospital.
He needed to do something to make up for what he owed Lou Xi.
Lu Li went downstairs with him and patted Qin Mobai on the shoulder.
Qin Mobai nodded lightly; sometimes a glance or a gesture between friends is the best comfort.
"What you asked me to do, do you suspect that the miscarriage is related to Shen Ruozhuo?" Lu Li asked.
Just two hours ago, when Lou Xi was in light sleep, Qin Mobai sent Lu Li an email. It contained several paintings, some of which were Qiao Bi’er’s privately collected masterpieces and hadn’t been disclosed, while the other two were by "ZeRu ShiYu," also known as Shen Ruozhuo.
Shen Ruozhuo claimed these paintings were her originals, yet they were plagiarized from Qiao Bi’er.
Copying is not much of an issue; in the art circle, there are many copied works, some even surpass the originals.
However, claiming them as originals is a severe blow.
By now, the reporters should have received Lu Li’s scoop, and soon "ZeRu ShiYu" will be infamous in the art circle.
"I’m not suspecting," Qin Mobai said blandly, "I’m sure."
Lu Li suddenly felt a chill down his spine. If Qin Mobai is certain Shen Ruozhuo caused Lou Xi to lose her child, but now he’s only exposing Shen Ruozhuo’s plagiarism.
Qin Mobai’s revenge is only just beginning.
"Do you have any other plans? I will absolutely assist you wholeheartedly," Lu Li said. Among them, loyalty and protection are paramount.
"Do you know what Shen Ruozhuo cares about most?"
"What?"
"Her reputation in the art circle and her status as Miss Shen."
To kill a person mentally.
For Qin Mobai, letting Shen Ruozhuo die is a matter of one word, but making her life worse than death is his goal.
He wants her to taste the pain of loss.
Qin Mobai never claimed to be a good person; if the enemy offends him by an inch, he retaliates by a foot.
Lu Li didn’t know if it was an illusion, but looking at the man beside him, he felt a cold, sharp aura emanating from him, yet his face was indifferent and unconcerned.
And this expression is usually a precursor to Qin Mobai planning something big.
