Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Do It Well Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Do It Well “President Jiang, Shang Kaijie has already fallen asleep,” the assistant ca in and interrupted them.
Bai Xiao stood up and took out her acupuncture kit, “Take there!”
The assistant glanced at Jiang Shaoqing. President Jiang was the real boss here. Without his word, how could he dare to act recklessly?
Jiang Shaoqing, evidently irritated, scolded, “Didn’t you hear what Doctor Bai said? Take Doctor Bai there!”
They all knew how to get under his skin.
The assistant quickly escorted Bai Xiao away.
Once she had left, Jiang Shaoqing seriously asked, “Ayuan, do you really trust this Bai Xiao?”
This matter was of great importance: the affairs of Dongtan and Tianchi Coal Mine were sothing he could believe ca from An Zhiyuan’s intelligence. Not to ntion An Zhiyuan’s own capabilities! Even An Zhigao, the An family’s eldest brother, was a leader in the industry, soone whose thods anyone would trust.
But was it appropriate to disclose such critical information to Bai Xiao?
Did An Zhiyuan truly trust Bai Xiao that deeply, so wholeheartedly?
In his mind, in the grand sche of a man’s businesses, won played no significant role. Won were like pampered flowers, while the real storms had to be weathered by n.
An Zhiyuan nodded solemnly, “You should know what kind of person I am! Bai Xiao is different; she’s not like other girls. She isn’t a greenhouse flower that needs soone else’s protection. Her strength is beyond your imagination. What I can offer her, she can not only handle but also bear. Treat and trust her as you would .” That was what he could do for Bai Xiao.
He didn’t want to know what had happened; matters that Bai Xiao knew about didn’t concern him at all. He just knew Bai Xiao wasn’t a bad person, would definitely not do bad things, just like Shang Kaijie. It was that scoundrel who had first committed outrageous acts and Bai Xiao had decided to punish him. Both morally and logically, Bai Xiao wasn’t being unreasonable.
He simply trusted unconditionally that Bai Xiao would not do bad deeds.
“You, Ayuan, I’ve never seen you like this. In my eyes, you’re the leader among us all, your personality and character are admired by everyone. That’s why Wang Han has been following you around for so many years. Your personal charm and moral integrity are sothing we all believe in.
I never expected that one day, my good brother would change so much for a woman. But I still need to remind you not to pamper won too much; it’s very easy for them to grow a sense of entitlent, and one day you’ll regret it,” Jiang Shaoqing spoke earnestly. His experience told him that won could be hard to satisfy, and this notion of pushing limits applied not just to won, but to everyone.
It’s human nature. He didn’t want a day to co when An Zhiyuan would get hurt. Won as clever as Bai Xiao, if they were wholly devoted to An Zhiyuan, that would be one thing, but if they harbored ambitions, An Zhiyuan might be the one who suffered the most because of his actions today.
He didn’t want his brother to get hurt; Bai Xiao couldn’t harm his brother either.
An Zhiyuan laughed, “Don’t worry, Bai Xiao isn’t that kind of person. You don’t understand her; she’s perhaps the most sincere, kindest woman in the world. Initially, we got together because gossip made it difficult for her as a girl in the village, particularly with her grandmother trying to use the opportunity to marry her off to a good-for-nothing scoundrel. I stepped in because I didn’t want her to be cornered.
But she’s too rational. She cleared things up with in private, knowing I was helping her and seriously told that we were fake. She wouldn’t parade around bearing my fiancée’s na. As soon as I found soone I liked, she would imdiately step aside and has always refused my affection.
Facing her, I feel defeated, because how could I not like such a girl? The one I love hoping to stay miles away from , that kind of unattainable desire is probably the most unique experience in my life. Now that I’ve finally lted the ice wall around her heart and stepped inside, for her, I relish the opportunity. She’s finally starting to respond to ; how could I not be good to her?” That was the voice of his heart, a devoted confession to the person he loved.
Jiang Shaoqing was at a loss for words. He didn’t have a beloved woman, so he couldn’t understand this emotion. He was about to say sothing when Bai Xiao already pushed the door open and ca in.
“Okay, if all goes well, he should fully recover once he wakes up, bouncing around energetically.” Bai Xiao put the acupuncture kit into her purse. What she just did was known only to herself. Her special ability could do many things. She didn’t care whether she cured the patients or not; if not, there were always many other thods. Her special ability was developing new functions day by day! With its recent frequent usage, the ability had beco increasingly powerful.
Jiang Shaoqing glanced at his watch, “In half an hour, they will be here, so it won’t be convenient for you to stay. Better to keep a low profile; I’ll draw their fire by myself.” It wasn’t that he had ulterior motives; it was just that since they had co this far and beco partners, sotis it was necessary to keep so cards hidden.
Bai Xiao agreed. She wasn’t ready to et Shang Kaiwen just yet. What’s the point if rivals et and only she is overly emotional?
An Zhiyuan picked up a coat and helped Bai Xiao into it, then wrapped a scarf around her, “We’ll be off then, call you tomorrow!”
Jiang Shaoqing, watching An Zhiyuan behave like this, was so annoyed he couldn’t contain it. The man was losing face, being too proactive even before Bai Xiao had said anything.
It was too glaring.
He waved his hand with a stern face, “Just go!” He couldn’t stand it.
Before stepping out the door, Bai Xiao turned around with a radiant smile, “Jiang Shaoqing, Shang Kaijie is in our hands. Besides, the horrifying murder he attempted— though unsuccessfully— deserves so compensation from the Shang Family. Letting the Shang Family bleed a little is only fair for the price of Shang Kaijie, being the sole heir. I trust your negotiation skills, and I hope my partner is shrewd and capable.”
“Dr. Bai, you are certainly no businesswoman!” Jiang Shaoqing realized this girl definitely had the potential of a fox.
“But that doesn’t prevent from befriending businessn.”
Jiang Shaoqing snorted coldly. Bai Xiao laughed heartily as she walked out with An Zhiyuan, who put his arm around her shoulder. The two of them left the building intimately together for the first ti.
As they walked out the door, they bumped head-on into a father and daughter getting out of a car.
The four of them brushed past each other. In that instant of brushing shoulders, Bai Xiao could clearly see the curiosity-filled gaze that Shang Kaiwen directed at her.
This girl was still the sa, always appearing innocently naive; no one could see the darkness and ruthlessness in her heart.
An Zhiyuan opened the car door for Bai Xiao, and the two silently drove away.
Shang Kaiwen suddenly stopped at the door, turned her head and watched their car drive away, placing her hand over her chest. Why was there this frightening sense of fear? The look in that girl’s eyes was like a knife, yet what grudge did they have?
She was sure she had never seen this girl before.
“Let’s go!” Shang Feng called out to his daughter with a deep voice.
The two continued walking inside.
