Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Speak with Strength Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Speak with Strength Bai Yurou awoke from her nap to find that the house was empty.
She called for Mrs.
Fang to inquire about the situation.
Mrs.
Fang spoke with difficulty, “They’ve gone to pick up Nan Qiao.
The lady specifically instructed to let you sleep and not to wake you.”
Bai Yurou was furious, “Is it really because they didn’t want to wake , or because they feared I would be a wet blanket!
They say they treat like their own daughter, but in reality, I’m just being left out!”
Mrs.
Fang softly consoled her, “Miss, don’t be angry, it’s not worth harming your health.
I think the master and mistress didn’t go just to pick up Nan Qiao, they surely want to maintain the relationship with the Li Family.”
Bai Yurou said with sarcasm, “Nan Qiao claims she knows dical skills, I don’t believe it!
Her ability to cling to the Li Family is a skill indeed.”
Mrs.
Fang dared not continue on that topic, for that was the Li Family, the world’s richest Li Family.
For the Bai Family to have a marriage alliance with the Li Family was more than beneficial.
Seeing Bai Yurou’s angry expression, Mrs.
Fang lowered her voice and suggested, “Miss, if they didn’t take you, you might as well go there yourself.”
As if waking from a dream, Bai Yurou went upstairs, applied so light makeup, donned sportswear, unconsciously imitating Nan Qiao.
After getting ready, she took a car to the Li Family.
…
By the ti Bai Yurou arrived at the Li Family’s ho, everyone had finished eating and was preparing to leave.
Old Li and Li Yehan were seeing them out all the way to the front gate.
Bai Yurou got out of the car, cheerfully walked forward, and tried to speak to Li Yehan when she noticed he was already talking to Nan Qiao, his eyes and heart filled only with her.
Each of his gestures changed with Nan Qiao’s movents.
Chen Xinwan saw Bai Yurou arrive and was the first to speak to her, “Yurou, why have you co?”
Just as Bai Yurou was about to speak to Li Yehan, she was interrupted by Chen Xinwan, which made her suspect it was deliberate!
With a smile, Bai Yurou said, “Mom, I heard you were picking up sister.
Mom, you should have woken up, we are a family, we should all co together to welco sister ho.”
Chen Xinwan spoke gently, “Yurou, you have the habit of taking naps.
If you don’t sleep well during the day, you’ll have insomnia at night, and I couldn’t bear to wake you.
We are enough to pick up your sister.”
Bai Yurou dared not say much, fearful Chen Xinwan would get angry.
Grandpa Bai also ignored Bai Yurou as he was busy saying goodbye to Old Li.
“Old Li, we’re leaving now, no need to see us out, take care.”
“Old Bai, thank you for your concern.
I won’t keep you any longer, drive safely.”
Old Li then addressed Nan Qiao separately, “Qiaoqiao, co and visit when you can.
Our ho’s doors are always open for you.”
Li Yehan’s gaze affectionately lingered on Nan Qiao, “Qiaoqiao, if the flowers we planted bear fruit, I’ll let you know.”
Nan Qiao nodded and said goodbye to Li Yehan and Old Li.
Several people then left by car.
Bai Yurou’s mood was like having a bucket of ice water poured over her, from head to toe, utterly chilled.
…
When Bai Yurou returned ho, she was busy serving Bai Zhenyang water and massaging Chen Xinwan’s shoulders.
“Dad, I see you’re a bit heated, this cup of chrysanthemum tea can clear the heat.”
“Mom, I see your shoulders are uncomfortable, let give you a massage.”
Nan Qiao watched her perform these tasks without getting angry.
She ca over and sat beside Bai Zhenyang, “Let see your hand.”
Bai Zhenyang, confused but willing to fulfill any of Nan Qiao’s requests, extended his hand.
Nan Qiao took his pulse and told him, “I have a bottle of herbal Pills here, they clear heat and reduce dryness.
All made from Chinese dicines, safer than Western dicine.”
Nan Qiao took out the Pills from her bag and handed them to Bai Zhenyang.
Bai Yurou frowned but quickly relaxed her expression, “Sister, did you make these Pills yourself?
Without clinical trials, couldn’t there be risks?”
Nan Qiao smiled slightly, “Who says my Pills haven’t been tested?
Doesn’t your hospital pharmacy also sell this dicine?”
Bai Yurou’s frown deepened; she truly did not know about this.
Nan Qiao added, “Not just your hospital, so pharmacies also sell them, you can go check if you don’t believe .”
Bai Zhenyang exclaid, “Qiaoqiao, you’re really impressive, much better than your three brothers.
Caring and able to see a doctor, you’re outstanding!”
Chen Xinwan also extended her hand, “Qiaoqiao, co and check on mom too.
These past few days, my sleep quality hasn’t been great.”
Nan Qiao sat down to take Chen Xinwan’s pulse, both of them with similar eyes.
Chen Xinwan looked at her tenderly, with doting and affection.
Bai Yurou, sitting close by, saw the true affection.
Your own is still your own, after all, showing a bit of favoritism!
Bai Yurou sat to the side, watching their interaction, her heart filled with hatred.
Only when Nan Qiao’s gaze turned to her did Bai Yurou quickly display a smile.
“Let take your pulse too, you haven’t studied Chinese dicine, so you probably can’t do it, right?”
Bai Yurou quickly shook her head, fearful of Nan Qiao examining her body.
“I just had a dical check-up yesterday, sister, you needn’t bother.”
Bai Yurou’s hands instinctively clasped together, dreading Nan Qiao might insist.
Nan Qiao, curious, couldn’t understand why Bai Yurou was so nervous about having her pulse taken.
What was she hiding in her body that she didn’t want to be revealed?
Though Nan Qiao was curious, she wouldn’t force it and had to look for an opportunity to verify.
…
Zhou Hongqi’s company finally resolved the crisis at the cost of half his life.
Sitting in the Zhou Family villa, the extravagance made him feel bitter.
Without a turnaround, his quality of life would plumt drastically.
When Zhou Jingya ca downstairs and saw Zhou Hongqi’s worried face, she instinctively wanted to return to her room but got spotted by him.
“Xiao Ya, co over and sit.”
Zhou Jingya braced herself and walked down, sitting on the couch, well-behaved and polite.
“Xiao Ya, don’t you design clothes?
Let see your design drafts, I want to start over from scratch.”
Zhou Jingya didn’t know anything about fashion design; she had used up all of Nan Qiao’s stolen drafts.
“There has been a lot going on at ho recently, and I can’t calm my mind, so I have no inspiration for design.”
Zhou Hongqi’s face darkened, his displeasure apparent as he glared at Zhou Jingya, “I told you to seek Lu Zhengyang for investnt in the company, how is that going?”
Zhou Jingya: “…”
It was the very thing she feared!
“Lu Zhengyang’s been busy lately, and his mother keeps a tight leash on him.”
Zhou Hongqi’s mood was colder than the winter wind.
Useless at everything, except being number one at losing money.
Ever since Nan Qiao left their ho, their business had been in decline.
If this continues, everyone will be left to the rcy of the wind.
“Go find Lu Zhengyang right now.
I don’t care what thod you use, but you must secure funding for .”
Zhou Jingya was taken aback and then ekly nodded in agreent.
What thod could she possibly use?
