Chapter 530: Chapter 529: Xiaolang Fell in Love, Song Zhizhi is Pregnant (Third Update)
Ji Baixin laughed like a madman.
Yin Qin was next to her, his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly.
He let out a roar.
A roar that expressed all the discomfort in his heart.
He didn’t know what would become of him and Ji Baixin. After all, his life was hers to command; she could do whatever she wanted to him. But aside from him, Ji Baixin could not harm any other person, especially Luo Xiaolang!
Two women who he deeply owed in this lifetime.
One, he would atone for with his life.
The other… would remain in his heart, never to be forgotten even in death.
Inside the car.
Ji Baixin’s laughter abruptly stopped.
Suddenly, the air thickened.
Ji Baixin said, “Yin Qin, all I have left for you is obligation, isn’t it?!”
Yin Qin didn’t respond.
But silence is consent.
Ji Baixin said, “Then take responsibility for me properly. If I am not dead in this lifetime, you are not allowed to leave my side for even one step!”
Yin Qin kept his lips tightly sealed.
He had been prepared for this.
Not attending Luo Xiaolang’s wedding was already a clear decision.
“Baixin. I will give everything I have to treat you well,” Yin Qin said with certainty.
Yes.
He could treat her well.
But he no longer loved her.
What’s the point of such a marriage, such emotions?!
Is Ji Baixin someone you can just appease with some shallow gestures?
No.
Since her love was ruined, she would also ruin other people’s love.
You can’t blame her for changing.
Only blame Yin Qin for using the wrong method from the start.
If he had rejected her at first and told her the truth, perhaps even in death she wouldn’t blame Yin Qin, nor seek revenge on him! But now, now that he deceived her for so long and then tells her it was just obligation… she can’t swallow this indignity.
She wasn’t that magnanimous.
Ji Baixin wasn’t someone who could be easily dismissed either!
But at that moment, she just nodded.
Compromising, without showing any emotion.
Yin Qin made the move to hold her hand.
Ji Baixin just let him hold it in his palm.
Yin Qin said, “From now on, let’s live our lives without minding others, okay?”
Ji Baixin nodded.
She obediently nodded.
Yin Qin controlled his inner emotions.
He would strive to forget Luo Xiaolang, and he would try to love Ji Baixin.
From now on, he really would have to erase Luo Xiaolang from his heart, he couldn’t continue being so childish, he couldn’t.
…
The banquet ended.
Luo Xiaolang still rode in Joe’s car to go home.
Joe had drank some alcohol, so he called for a substitute driver.
The car swayed slightly down the street.
Luo Xiaolang just sat there looking out of the window, at Jin City’s bright lights and the dazzling night scene.
She suddenly muttered, “Joe, do I really look good?”
Joe felt a pang in his heart, he smiled and said, “Why ask that all of a sudden.”
“I heard a lot of compliments today, and it made me start to doubt whether Yin Qin has been lying to me.”
“What has he lied to you about?”
“He said I’m ugly,” Luo Xiaolang firmly replied.
“I can tell you with absolute certainty, if he said you were ugly in the past, it might have been his true feelings. But if he still says you’re ugly today, then he is the one with a dark heart.”
“Huh?” Luo Xiaolang was puzzled.
Joe said, “Before, you didn’t dress up or know how to wear clothes well, and you didn’t take care of your hair, so you looked very average. But today, you stunned everyone. Even Ji Baixin was not as charming as you.”
“You’re not lying to me, are you?”
“I’m not lying to you.”
“Hmm,” Luo Xiaolang smiled slightly.
It seemed like Joe was afraid Luo Xiaolang wouldn’t believe him, so he asked the driver, “Sir, do you think the lady beside me is good-looking?”
The substitute driver was a bit embarrassed.
He peeked at Luo Xiaolang in the rearview mirror and quickly replied, “She’s very good-looking, one of the most beautiful people I’ve ever seen.”
Joe gave Luo Xiaolang a smile as if to say, he wasn’t lying.
Luo Xiaolang nodded.
She believed him.
She now thought that the reason Yin Qin said she was ugly was because he only thought Ji Baixin was attractive. To him, all other women were ugly.
The car arrived at the residential garage.
Luo Xiaolang and Joe went home together.
When the elevator reached Joe’s floor, Joe paused before exiting, and said, “Xiaolang.”
“Hmm?”
“I want to give you a world champion’s medal.” Joe suddenly said.
Luo Xiaolang’s heart fluttered.
It was not the occasional disruption of a normal heartbeat, but a profound feeling of upheaval in her chest.
Joe’s lips suddenly approached Luo Xiaolang’s forehead.
Luo Xiaolang felt a warm pair of lips, gently imprinting a kiss on her forehead, it was such a gentle and emotionally charged gesture.
Luo Xiaolang felt her heartbeat accelerate even more.
After Joe kissed her, he maintained a slight distance from her and said, “Wait for me.”
Luo Xiaolang nodded.
She nodded involuntarily.
Joe gave her a warm smile and left the elevator.
For some reason, her nose tingled at that moment.
Watching the elevator close and seeing Joe’s retreating figure, she had a sudden urge to cry.
She knew they were going to leave Jin City for their overseas competition in a week, and once they left, they might not meet again for a very long time.
She was originally one of them, but now… she had to watch them move away from her.
She steadied her emotions.
When it came to choosing Little Tiger, she never regretted it.
…
The Song Family Mansion.
Ever since Song Shan passed away, Song Zhizhi had been staying in the mansion.
Ji Baijian didn’t contact her anymore.
Neither did she call Ji Baijian.
Despite knowing very well that Ji Baixin would never harm her father, she pinned all the blame on him.
Song Zhidao knocked on his sister’s door and brought her a cup of milk.
Song Zhizhi smiled faintly.
Song Zhidao handed her the milk.
And Song Zhizhi drank it down.
“Sis, are you really not planning to go back and have a proper discussion with your brother-in-law? Dad’s incident, I believe it has nothing to do with the brother-in-law. There’s no need to let your relationship with him suffer over Dad’s accident,” Song Zhidao said.
“I know it’s not Ji Baijian,” Song Zhizhi replied affirmatively.
“If that’s the case, why don’t you go back? This is very hurtful to your brother-in-law.”
“I’m not going back because our relationship was always about interests. Since he couldn’t protect my family, we can only part ways.”
“Sis, aren’t you being too extreme?”
“We can’t rely on others anymore. I was too naive before. So, starting from this moment, we have to depend on ourselves!”
“Sis, do you have any plans?”
“We must find out who set up Dad!”
“Who do you suspect?” Song Zhidao asked.
“Qin Wenguo,” Song Zhizhi replied with a pause after each word.
“Him?!” Song Zhidao was shocked. “Does he have the courage?”
“I saw the call records from the day dad had the accident, except for calling Ji Baijian, Qin Wenguo also called my dad. Considering the coincidence in timing, I can’t help but suspect him. Most importantly, the only remaining key players in the Commercial Management are my dad and Qin Wenguo. In Qin Wenguo’s eyes, other than my dad, he is the only one who could head the Commercial Management. Plus, he has a smart and capable daughter, Qin Jingxiang. He could possibly be using her advice!”
“So, you suspect it’s Qin Wenguo.”
“Qin Wenguo is the most suspicious!” Song Zhizhi confirmed.
“So, what are you planning to do now?”
“Of course, bring down Qin Wenguo!”
“I’ll follow whatever Sis arranges,” Song Zhidao said firmly.
Song Zhizhi nodded, “It’s getting late, go to bed early. We will return to work at Commercial Management tomorrow.”
“Hmm.”
Song Zhidao left.
He left Song Zhizhi’s room and went back to his own room.
He lay on the bed and took out his phone.
His fingers moved on the screen, composing a message.
He looked it over up and down and made sure the contents were correct before sending it out.
After sending it out, he deleted it immediately.
He put down his phone and stared blankly at the ceiling.
He would never harm his sister.
He was just inculcated too much by his father from a young age.
How could he bear to lose the fattened pig right in front of him!
…
In Song Zhizhi’s room, after Song Zhidao left, she rushed into the bathroom.
The milk she had just drunk was essentially all vomited out.
She was throwing up uncontrollably, but she was worried about making too much noise, so she kept suppressing it.
It took her a long time, a very long time, to steady herself.
She rinsed her mouth with clear water and wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin.
She looked at her somewhat pale face in the mirror.
Her eyes traveled downwards.
She gently touched her lower abdomen with her hand.
God really loved to play jokes on her.
He made her inexplicably regenerate!
And ended up making her pregnant at such an inopportune time!
