FMLRWS Chapter 452

Father Bai’s expression darkened.

Back then, they all thought that Leng Minxing was going to die. How could they dare marry their daughter off? They thought that if something really did happen to him, they would call off the engagement and later try to arrange a match once the Leng family’s inheritance was stable. Who would have thought that not only did Leng Minxing not die, but he also quickly recovered? The inheritance of the Leng family was still in his hands, while their Bai family could no longer become in-laws. It was like losing everything!

They had considered marrying Yaya to someone else in the Leng family, but those people paled in comparison to Leng Minxing. How could they bring themselves to swap him out?

They had originally thought he would divorce that girl brought in once he got better and then reestablish a connection with their own daughter. Who would have imagined it would escalate to this point?

“What’s the use of saying this now? At that time, you yourself didn’t refuse, did you? You and Minxing have had such a good relationship since childhood, but here you are, being bullied to this point by a girl who just showed up a few months ago!” He spoke with some regret for not being able to make a good match.

“Hmph! It’s all that woman’s foxy look and her schemes. She seduced Brother Xing, otherwise why would Brother Xing treat me like this?” Bai Yaya was convinced that it was Luo Xi’s good looks that attracted people or that she had been speaking ill of her behind her back, causing Brother Xing to dislike her.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Bai Yaya felt an overwhelming urge to strangle her to death.

“Next time, do not act impulsively. That girl has been firmly established as the Leng family’s young madam for so long and has also gained Minxing’s favor, so she must have some tricks up her sleeve. If anything happens, tell your mother and I will help you with ideas. I want to see just how capable she really is!” Mother Bai said darkly.

“What your mother said is right. Right now, the most important thing is to maintain a good relationship with the Leng family. We’ve suffered a setback this time, so we need to bear with it. No matter what, we cannot offend the Leng family. Yaya, you’ve always been good friends with Lin Xuan. Go make sure to spend more time with her. Please the old lady and build a good relationship with her. I don’t believe that Minxing will continue to target our Bai family without mercy!” Father Bai suggested.

Bai Yaya hated having to curry favor the most. In the past, she had to get along with even the maids for Leng Minxing’s sake, and but here she was, ending up in such a situation!

Seeing her unwilling expression, Father Bai added, “I will have your Uncle Leng arrange for you to have a job that is closer to Minxing. From then on, it will depend on you. Yaya, your mother and I hope you won’t let us down.”

Bai Yaya’s eyes lit up.

Didn’t this mean she could openly see Brother Xing every day?

She quickly nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, Luo Xi had agreed to Mi Ke to shoot that so-called 30-second advertisement and got up early, planning to head out.

On the bed, Leng Minxing intended to reach out and pull her close, only to find nothing there.

He suddenly opened his eyes and realized she was already gone. Turning his head, he saw Luo Xi sitting at the vanity, revealing a bit of her shoulders as she seemed to be doing something in front of the mirror.

Luo Xi seemed to feel his gaze and turned around. When their eyes met, she pouted and complained, “Look at what you did, my neck is covered in marks. How am I supposed to go out?”

Then she grabbed a powder puff and tried to cover the ambiguous marks on her neck.

Leng Minxing paused, and memories of last night flashed in his mind. He cleared his throat awkwardly and walked over. “Let me see.”
