Chapter 51: Suffer A Loss
Liu Li ignored her and pushed her onto the hallway floor.
Fang Xinxin said to Bai Qinghao, “My friends definitely aren’t paid actors. You’ll know once you see them.”
“If they are your friends, I don’t mind meeting them.” Bai Qinghao nodded slightly.
Fang Xinxin was a little moved.
It wasn’t easy to obtain a meeting with Bai Qinghao. He was giving her a lot of face by agreeing to do so. She followed him into the hospital room next door.
Bai Chenxi noticed that Fang Xinxin’s gaze did not turn toward him even once all this time. He furrowed his brows somewhat unhappily.
In the past, this fat and ugly woman used to declare time and time again that she liked him.
Why was she ignoring him now?
She had to be doing it on purpose, in hopes of gaining his affection in the long run.
Fang Manxue lingered in the hallway, staring at the hospital door next to Bai Chenxi’s. Several minutes later, Bai Qinghao came out with Fang Xinxin. “CEO Bai, you really cannot trust Fang Xinxin’s so-called friends. They have definitely been bought by her to fool you. She came here to visit Bai Chenxi!”
“Do you think I’m so easy to trick?” Bai Qinghao furrowed his brows. “I’ve met the person. There’s no way he could have been bribed to act on Xinxin’s behalf. Moreover, Fang Xinxin didn’t come here to visit Bai Chenxi. Are you trying to make the Fang Group go bankrupt with your actions?”
“I…” Fang Manxue immediately covered her mouth and fell silent.
Bai Qinghao was a decisive man, and he always acted on his thoughts without any hesitation. He wasn’t one to go back on his words.
With his power and status, a simple shift of his feet could cause an earthquake in the stock market.
Destroying the Fang Group wasn’t a difficult task for him.
Her clumsy actions had already cost the Fang Group to suffer a loss of eighty million dollars. She could not afford to cause any more trouble.
Fang Manxue glared at Fang Xinxin, as though to say, ‘You won’t be so lucky next time.’ But she didn’t speak up any further and stood on the side unhappily.
Bai Qinghao and Fang Xinxin left the place with Liu Li following behind.
Both Fang Manxue and Bai Chenxi were curious about the identity of Fang Xinxin’s friend. To think that even Bai Qinghao would say that the person couldn’t be bought over.
However, before they could enter the room, two bodyguards dressed in black quickly reached there. They positioned themselves in front of the door and said, “As per the boss’s order, busybodies are not allowed to enter without permission.”
Fang Manxue spoke up with an arrogant expression. “How do I count as a busybody? I’m Bai Qinghao’s fiancée…”
Bai Chenxi smiled mockingly at Fang Manxue. She sure was shameless.
But Fang Manxue did not feel guilty looking at his sneer. After all, most people believed that she was the Bai family’s future lady. Only ghosts knew that Bai Qinghao’s actual fiancée was Fang Xinxin.
“If you wish to visit, you will require permission from the patient.” The bodyguards said expressionlessly.
“You’ve been stirring up a commotion yet that patient hasn’t paid you any mind. It is clear that he does not wish to see you.”
“I’m Bai Qinghao’s fiancée. Can’t I go in anyways?”
“Our apologies.”
Fang Manxue saw that the bodyguards would not budge from their positions. She gave Bai Chenxi a look and the two of them went to check with the hospital staff about the person’s identity, only to learn that Bai Qinghao had ordered all of them to keep their mouths shut.
Despite how curious they were, they knew that if it was something Bai Qinghao wanted to keep hidden, there would be no way for them to find it out.
They could only give up.
…
Fang Xinxin climbed into Bai Qinghao’s black alligator SUV. The two of them sat in the back while Liu Li drove the car.
“I never expected Gu Linyuan to be close to the Bai family,” Fang Xinxin spoke up. In her past life, she had never learnt about this.
Earlier, Bai Qinghao met Gu Linyuan in the hospital. When he learned that Gu Linyuan had nearly died, and found out about her involvement in this matter, he immediately arranged for his bodyguards to protect Gu Linyuan.
