Bai Jing hugged Si Qian for a while, thinking that it had calmed him down. Then, she carefully helped Si Qian with his wounds. She had no intention of leaving. She curled up in Si Qian’s arms like a cat, while her mind was constantly checking the relevant information in the database, she had made up her mind to help Si Qian get better.
Since it was rare for the two of them to have a moment of tenderness, Si Qian was able to sleep well. The next day, he woke up early and went out to make arrangements according to Xia Ying’s intelligence.
Bai Jing slept very late last night because she had been reading up on the information. When she woke up, it was already past 10 am. Bai Chen was playing safely on the base. So, she got up and went to make breakfast by herself. Just as she was about to go downstairs, she saw an uninvited guest.
“Why are you here?”
Bai Jing was confused. Her mind was still a little muddled since she had just woken up. It was just her body’s instinctive reaction to Xia Ying’s displeasure.
Xia Ying looked at Bai Jing who was drowsy and laughed coldly. “How does it matter to you if I’m here? I’ve already said it before. This is the Golden Triangle. Everyone is licking their wounds. Yet, you can sleep peacefully until now! You’re really a useless vase!”
Bai Jing was even more displeased with her hostility.
“Since I’ve slept until now, it has to do with Si Qian!”
Xia Ying was enraged that she did not want to talk to Bai Jing anymore. Instead, she stuck her head out and looked behind Bai Jing. “I promised Si Qian that I would give him some medicine. No matter how unhappy you are, you should not stop me. Get out of my way!”
“He is not here! You can put down your medicine and get lost!”
“Si Qian is not here?” Xia Ying was a little disappointed. However, she quickly raised her eyebrows and looked at Bai Jing. She did not show any intention of leaving. Instead, she walked to the sofa and sat down like a hostess.
“Since he is not here, then it’s about time for us to talk!”
“Is there anything that we need to talk about? I will not be involved in Si Qian’s matter. If you have any news, you can tell Chou Hai. I’m not interested!”
“What we need to talk about is not official business, but private matters!”
“Private matters? What private matters do I have to talk about with you?”
“Of course there is. Tell me, what kind of conditions do you want before you will leave Si Qian?”
“Why should I leave Si Qian?”
“Hmph, you’re not worthy of Si Qian at all. Don’t think that you can stay by Si Qian’s side by relying on your good looks and some underhanded tricks. You’re not worthy at all. I advise you to leave on your own. Otherwise, you won’t get anything!”
Bai Jing understood. This was the act of a mistress trying to force her to leave her husband.
She sat across from Xia Ying and looked at her coldly. “Si Qian and I are legally recognized as husband and wife. What right do you have to tell me to leave Si Qian? Can you represent the civil affairs bureau or the country?”
Xia Ying was exasperated. “Don’t you understand, woman? Look at yourself. What can you bring to Si Qian? Can you give up your life for him or can you bring him other benefits? You can’t give him anything! What right do you have to be his woman?”
“Because he married me and his wife’s name is written in the household register under my name, Bai Jing!”
“You’re truly shameless. I don’t care what method you used to trick Si Qian into marrying you, but that’s not important. I’ll make him understand what he needs. What he needs is not a tool to warm his bed, but a partner who can help him in his career. And this person will only be me!”
“You? What can you help him in the Golden Triangle?”
Xia Ying looked smug. “It seems that Si Qian doesn’t like you that much. He doesn’t tell you everything. So what if you managed to climb onto Si Qian’s bed? He won’t even tell you his identity but I know everything. Even if you have hundreds of billions, you can’t help him because he is...”
“Xia Ying!” Si Qian’s angry shout rang out at the door, scaring Xia Ying so much that she shivered and stood up abruptly.
