No matter what, he had to keep Bai Nianxi by his side. How much money would he have to spend? It doesn't matter. If the money could keep her.
Luoluo secretly rolled her eyes at Kang Mobei when she saw the ugly expression on Bai Nianxi's face. "Hmph, stupid daddy, how can you be so ignorant about women?" A girl like Mommy would be scared off if she only talked about money!
"Mommy — —" Luoluo mewled softly as she wrapped her arms around Bai Nianxi's neck and nestled her head against Bai Nianxi's chest. "Luoluo is so pitiful. Luoluo has nightmares every night about Mommy not Luoluo anymore. There's only Luoluo in the world."
Seeing Bai Nianxi's hesitation, Luoluo pouted and let go of her hand. She poked her two small fingers at each other in front of her chest, looking both wronged and pitiful. "Luoluo doesn't have any friends. No child is willing to play with her."
Kang Mobei was just about to drink a cup of tea after he finished talking when he heard Luoluo's words. He nearly choked and put down the cup of tea.
Luoluo didn't have any friends. Wasn't it because he thought that she wasn't smart enough and was too childish, so she didn't want to play with him?
Bai Nianxi's attention was attracted by the miserable Luoluo in her arms, even the abnormality on Kang Mobei's face was not noticed. Bai Nianxi's attention was indeed attracted by the miserable Luoluo in her arms, even the abnormality on Kang Mobei's face was not noticed.
CHAPTER 3 - ACCIDENT
"Mommy will stay with Luoluo, okay?" Luoluo raised her head, the stars in her eyes twinkling.
Bai Nianxi couldn't think too much into it, so she signed her name on the contract.
Kang Mobei looked at the signature on it and narrowed his eyes. "From today onwards, you will live here. You will have your own special room as well as …"
"Wait." Bai Nianxizhen was stunned. "Living here?"
Before he could say anything, a chubby little hand landed on a paragraph of paper.
Bai Nianxi lowered her head and could not help but mutter under her breath, "As a counselor, Party B must live in the house of Party A in order to perform their duties. Without permission, they are not allowed to go out on their own …"
She had only read the first page, and thought that she only needed to be a normal counselor, that would be enough at any time. She didn't pay attention to the additional terms after that, she assumed that Kang Mobei, as the dignified CEO of Kang's Group, wouldn't cheat her, right? She didn't expect …
Kang Mobei looked at the expression on Bai Nianxi's face and a hint of displeasure appeared in his eyes. "You're not willing?"
Bai Nianxi was about to go on a rampage when she heard Kang Mobei say indifferently, "The words have already been signed. I'm sure Miss Bai knows what to do."
Sure enough, that chubby little hand appeared again. It handed over a piece of paper and pointed at something with its pinky — "If Party B defaults, you must pay Party A 30,000 yuan …" Bai Nianxi counted carefully. After the number 3, there were about 7 zeros.
Luoluo bit her lips, feeling guilty. She never thought that her father would be so merciless. With so many zeros, how could Mommy possibly pay him back? However, I can't afford it, so Mommy will obediently stay!
Bai Nianxi looked at the sky-high default payment that she had to pay and was momentarily stunned. At this moment, the phone in his hand rang.
It was Jiang Zhi'ang.
God, she had almost forgotten about the engagement.
He picked up, "Zhi'ang?"
Bai Nianxi's voice was very gentle, probably because she was feeling guilty and there was even a faint hint of flattery. Hearing this, the two men beside her frowned slightly.
Jiang Zhi'ang's soft voice came from the other side of the phone, without a trace of anger, as if he wasn't angry at the fact that Bai Nianxi had run away from the engagement ceremony. His voice was more concerned about Bai Nianxi. Has something happened? "
Kang Mobei's gaze fell on the phone screen in Bai Nianxi's hand. He clearly saw the comment — — Jiang Zhi'ang.
The man who was going to marry her.
Bai Nianxi shook her head, "It's just a small misunderstanding. Zhi'ang, I'm sorry, can I talk to you later?"
"Miss Bai." Kang Mobei's expression was indifferent, but he could still see the slight displeasure between his brows, "The agreement starts today."
He was reminding Bai Nianxi that since the agreement was already in effect, she couldn't return to Jiang Zhi'ang's side at this time.
Bai Nianxi covered the end of the phone with one hand and turned her head towards Kang Mobei. With a troubled expression, she begged, "But Mr. Kang, I must make this matter clear to my fiancé. Can you let me go home for the night and come back tomorrow?"
Hearing Bai Nianxi's words about her fiancé, Kang Mobei's expression turned even darker. If Miss Bai feels it's necessary, she can ask Mr. Jiang to come over. "
Kang Mobei's attitude was very firm. Since Luoluo stuck to her body and refused to leave, there was no other way but for Bai Nianxi to give her address so that Jiang Zhi'ang could catch up.
While they were waiting for Jiang Zhi'ang, Bai Nianxi sat on the sofa. Her skin was snow-white. The pure white wedding dress that she wore exuded an indescribable holy beauty. Her chest revealed her beautiful collarbone, as well as that faintly discernible chasm. Behind her was the exquisite curve of her swan neck and the back of a butterfly, there was nothing that was not a fatal temptation.
However, the more Kang Mobei looked, the more he felt it was annoying. He called a maid over and said, "Take Miss Bai to change her clothes."
Bai Nianxi ran to the police station, walking and sitting on the road. Her dress was quite dirty, and she just happened to feel that she was sweating and was getting tired. She needed a change of clothes, so she stood up, preparing to change clothes with the maid.
"Mister …" The maid wanted to say something but hesitated. In all these years, there had never been a woman in the house. How could a woman change her clothes? He couldn't possibly give Miss Bai a maid costume as well, right?
Noticing the maid's dilemma, he needed time to get her to buy a set of clothes, and he didn't want to see Bai Nianxi wearing this wedding dress for even a second. After a moment of silence, he stood up, ordered the maid to leave, and said to Bai Nianxi, "Follow me."
He followed Kang Mobei into a room. The room's layout was clean and tidy, with a brown color. There was not a place that did not give off the calm self-confidence of an elite of the upper class.
Kang Mobei took out a key, walked to the bedside drawer and took out a pure white t-shirt, it looked very new.
"Wear this." Kang Mobei handed the t-shirt to Bai Nianxi with a gloomy expression.
It's just an ordinary T-shirt. Why hide it in a drawer at the head of the bed and lock it up? Despite her doubts, Bai Nianxi still took it and went to the bathroom to change her clothes.
The T-shirt was made of pure cotton, so it was very comfortable to wear. Especially since it fit perfectly, it made her feel as if it belonged to her in the first place.
When Bai Nianxi walked out of the bathroom, Kang Mobei was waiting outside the door. The moment he saw her, a trace of awe seemed to blossom in his eyes.
He thought of her that night. There was a dense look in his eyes.
Kang Mobei opened the door and a small ball rolled in. He went around Kang Mobei and hugged Bai Nianxi's leg.
Bai Nianxi sighed, picked up Luoluo and walked downstairs.
A long time had passed, but Jiang Zhi'ang still hadn't come. Bai Nianxi was waiting anxiously when the phone in her hand rang. It was Jiang Zhi'ang.
"Hey, Zhi'ang, why aren't you here yet, you …"
"Is that Miss Bai?" An unfamiliar voice came from the other side.
Bai Nianxi was stunned for a moment before her brows furrowed slightly. "I am."
"Mr. Jiang has been in a car accident and is currently in the city center hospital for rescue. The situation is not optimistic and requires the family's signatu
re. Please come over immediately."
Releasing his fingers, the phone in his hand fell to the floor.
Kang Mobei frowned as he looked at Bai Nianxi's helpless expression. He had a hunch that something had happened, but he still asked, "What's wrong?"
Bai Nianxi wiped her eyes and stood up from the sofa, "Mr. Kang, I have urgent matters to attend to right now, so I'll be leaving first."
Watching Bai Nianxi stumble out of the door, Kang Mobei turned pale. How could that man make her so worried? He reached out his hand and grabbed Bai Nianxi.
CHAPTER 4 - SCOURGE
When Bai Nianxi was stopped, she was slightly agitated, "Mr. Kang …"
"If you can't get a car here, I'll take you there." Kang Mobei said coldly.
Luoluo jumped off the sofa and followed over with her short legs. She was stopped by Kang Mobei with a serious expression, "Stay at home and don't run around. I won't forgive you for another time."
After saying that, he pulled Bai Nianxi into the car.
Just as the car stopped, Bai Nianxi hurriedly got out of the car. She found the door to the operating room upstairs and grabbed the doctor wearing a white coat, "Doctor! "How is Zhi'ang?"
The doctor looked at Bai Nianxi doubtfully, "Jiang Zhi'ang's family?" Looking at Bai Nianxi, he said with dissatisfaction, "Why are you only here now? The patient is currently in critical condition and is undergoing emergency surgery.
Bai Nianxi trembled as she received the letter of responsibility from the nurse beside her. Just as she was about to sign, a sharp and angry voice suddenly shouted, "You are not allowed to sign! You are not worthy! "
Raising her head to look, she saw Yao Mei running hurriedly towards Bai Nianxi with her bag in her hand. She first raised her hand and ruthlessly slapped Bai Nianxi's face. After a crisp slap, she angrily snatched the letter of responsibility from Bai Nianxi's hands and wrote her name.
"You are a lost star! From the moment Zhi'ang started dating you, I didn't like you, so I knew you weren't someone that was easy to deal with! But Zhi'ang doesn't want to listen, he wants to be with you. Today, you first escaped from the engagement ceremony, and completely lost face for my Jiang Family, and now you caused Zhi'ang to get into a car accident! "
When Yao Mei got to the point where she was excited, she reached out her hand and shoved Bai Nianxi hard, "Speak! If you are not a lost star, then what are you? Now that my son is on the verge of death, what kind of sin did my Jiang Family commit, to have met a woman like you! "
Bai Nianxi bit her lips. Her heart was already filled with guilt and fear. Yao Mei was mean to others and had often made things difficult for her. But this time, no matter how much Yao Mei blamed her, she couldn't refute her.
She could only hope that the operation would go well and that Jiang Zhi'ang would be able to escape his life as soon as possible.
After an unknown amount of time, the door to the operation room was pushed open and the doctor pushed Jiang Zhi'ang out.
He took off his mask and said, "The operation was successful. The patient's life was temporarily spared. However, her legs were severely injured. Whether she can recover completely depends on the follow-up situation."
Bai Nianxi rushed to Jiang Zhi'ang's side, wanting to see what was going on with Jiang Zhi'ang. However, she was pushed away by Yao Mei. Yao Mei's strength was too great and Bai Nianxi staggered before falling to the ground.
"You are not fit to touch my son! "Scram!"
Yao Mei protected Jiang Zhi'ang and followed the doctor into the ward.
Sitting on the ground, Bai Nianxi finally couldn't hold it in anymore. She bent her legs and buried her face between her legs, crying. It was all her fault, it was all her fault …
The corner of Kang Mobei's clothes moved. His gaze was fixed on Bai Nianxi who was crying bitterly with her head lowered. A peculiar emotion surged in his eyes.
That woman had been harsh and sarcastic for years. From her attitude towards Bai Nianxi, it could be seen that she had received quite a lot of criticism.
"Heh, Bai Nianxi, that year, you didn't think much of my Kang Family, so you left Luoluo and disappeared, thinking that you would have to go through some good days, but all these years, you have been wasting your life like this?"
He turned around and made a call before heading downstairs, "Check the A City Jiang Family, Jiang Zhi'ang."
In the morning, in the bright and spacious office of the CEO, Kang Mobei held a cup of coffee and put one hand in his pants pocket. He stood in front of the French window and looked out at City A.
This was the tallest building in A city. His office was on the top floor of the building. Looking out from here, he could see the view of the entire A city. The bright sunlight shone in. Kang Mobei's gaze fell on a few tall buildings in the distance — the hospital at the center of the city.
Bai Nianxi's signed agreement was placed on the table. Three days had passed, yet she still hadn't come to find him.
Hospital.
"What?" Zhi'ang was in a car accident? " Gu Xuanlin's nervous and worried voice came over the phone. "Are you out of danger now?"
"The operation was successful, but Zhi'ang was still unconscious and did not wake up." Yao Mei wanted to say something, but hesitated.
Gu Xuanlin understood what Yao Mei meant and comforted her, "Auntie Yao, don't worry, Zhi'ang is out of danger. I'll buy the earliest ticket back and should be there by tomorrow."
"Good, good, good." Hearing Gu Xuanlin's words, Yao Mei nodded her head in gratification. After hanging up the phone, the look she gave Bai Nianxi turned into one of disgust and disdain. "Sofia is coming back from America."
Bai Nianxi bit her lips and did not say anything. She knew that Yao Mei had always been unsatisfied with her. Gu Xuanlin was the daughter of a family friend from Jiang Family, and to Yao Mei, Gu Xuanlin should be the legitimate daughter-in-law of Jiang Family.
Gu Xuanlin had always admired Jiang Zhi'ang, but because Jiang Zhi'ang was too focused on her, she couldn't get close to him. For that, Yao Mei hated her a lot.
"You weren't fit to be my Jiang Family's daughter-in-law to begin with. First, you ran away from the marriage, and then caused Zhi'ang's car accident, and now, you even more so don't have the qualifications.
Bai Nianxi's body trembled slightly. She never thought that Yao Mei would directly rescind the engagement, was she trying to drive her out of the Jiang Family?
"Auntie, Zhi'ang still hasn't woken up. He should be the one to decide about the engagement."
"You still have the face to say Zhi'ang?" Yao Mei was furious when she thought about how her son was hurt in a car accident by this woman in front of her.
"You know that Zhi'ang is determined to marry you! For him to make the decision, do you still want to shamelessly stay in my Jiang Family? "
Bai Nianxi clenched her fists, lowered her head and said, "Auntie, I won't leave until Zhi'ang is awake …"
Without waiting for her to finish, Yao Mei pushed Bai Nianxi away and grabbed her hair with one hand, tearing it up without any regard for her appearance. She scolded, "Scram right now! Scram far away, in case Zhi'ang wakes up and sees you again! "
Bai Nianxi didn't fight back. She just reached out her hand to protect her head. Suddenly, the nurse's voice came from the ward, "The patient has woken up. Where is the patient's family?"
Hearing the news that Jiang Zhi'ang had woken up, Yao Mei let go of Bai Nianxi fiercely. She clapped her hands and hurriedly pushed open the door to enter the ward. Bai Nianxi tidied up her hair and emotions before following him in.
Yao Mei's change in expression was extremely fast. The previous hostility on her face had disappeared in an instant. She walked to the bed with a face full of joy and asked with concern, "Son, you're awake? How about it? Does it still hurt? "
Jiang Zhi'ang shook his head with a pale face, "Mom, I'm fine, don't worry."
Bai Nianxi stood behind Yao Mei and pursed her lips. Her eyes were filled with tears as she looked at J
iang Zhi'ang. Other than happiness, there were also complicated emotions on her face.
"Mom, you go out first, I have something to talk to Nianxi about."
CHAPTER 5 - DEEP LOVE
She really didn't want to leave Jiang Zhi'ang and Bai Nianxi alone, but since Jiang Zhi'ang said so, there was nothing she could do. Before going out, she looked at Bai Nianxi with a warning look, as if to say: "Stay away from my son!"
"Zhi'ang, I'm sorry." Bai Nianxi walked over to the bed, held Jiang Zhi'ang's hand and said guiltily.
She knew what Jiang Zhi'ang was like to her, and she owed him too much. This time, she already felt very sorry for him when she suddenly left during the engagement ceremony, and because he came to find her in a car accident, she felt extremely guilty.
"I don't blame you. I was driving without noticing." Jiang Zhi'ang was heartbroken as he wiped away the tears in Bai Nianxi's eyes. Thinking about Yao Mei's personality, he asked out of concern, "My mom didn't make things difficult for you, right?"
Bai Nianxi's throat tightened at the thought of Yao Mei's proposal to cancel the engagement, but she still shook her head with a smile. "It's good that you're fine."
"Nianxi, can you tell me what happened on the day of the engagement?" Jiang Zhi'ang was a good-natured person. He had always treated Bai Nianxi with gentleness, and even when Bai Nianxi had run away that day, he had maintained his poise and not lost his temper.
However, this didn't mean that he didn't mind.
"That day …" Bai Nianxi was just about to explain it to Jiang Zhi'ang when she suddenly heard a sharp voice from outside the door, "Mommy? Who's your mommy! There's no Mommy here, let's go. "
Jiang Zhi'ang looked outside the door and frowned slightly.
Bai Nianxi stood up doubtfully. She opened the door to the ward and saw a small group of people standing at the entrance. "Luoluo?"
"You know him?" Yao Mei frowned in dissatisfaction.
In the next moment, Luoluo opened her arms and rushed over, hugging Bai Nianxi's leg tightly, "Mommy, you haven't come looking for Luoluo for the past few days. Luoluo misses you so much."
