Xiangnu felt utterly humiliated, never imagining she could be embarrassed to this extent.
Thanks to Li Yang.
However, she couldn’t bring herself to hate Li Yang; but Bai Qing...
When she entered, she didn’t confront Jiang Banxia; instead, she directly pressured Bai Qing.
She believed she wasn’t much worse than Bai Qing in any aspect, so why should Bai Qing slap her in the face?
Bai Qing saw Xiangnu seemingly asking Li Yang, but her gaze was fixed on Xiangnu, and it carried a hint of provocation.
She said with a chuckle, "You can only count as Xiangnu, right, darling?"
Li Yang gave her a sidelong glance and replied, "Will you make up for what’s lacking?"
What Xiangnu, isn’t this an insult? Xiangnu is clearly not insignificant.
Bai Qing laughed, "Hehe, I’ll make it up, I’ll make it up."
Xiangnu, standing nearby, was shocked to see the two discussing so openly, totally refreshing her worldview.
What kind of people are they!
Seeing them eating noodles, she realized she was hungry, and said directly, "Boss, get a bowl of noodles too."
After speaking, she sat down nearby.
Bai Qing chatted away with Li Yang, unaffected by anything around her, and although she didn’t know how Li Yang discovered her in the Bai Family, the sense of being protected made her feel very secure.
...
Bai Family.
Bai Jingxuan and Bai Chong skipped lunch; after all, given the situation, how could they eat?
Bai Jingxuan was already quite old, and his body was not robust. Others might have found an excuse to retire long ago, but he was determined to carry on.
He sternly questioned Bai Chong, "Didn’t you investigate Bai Qing’s situation thoroughly before daring to plan a marriage alliance? The whole Bai Family is just like you; do you want to anger to death?"
This son is really too foolish.
Before doing this, he didn’t even clarify the situation.
No wonder no matter how much he played the emotional card, Bai Qing was unmoved, because emotionally, Bai Qing has no vulnerabilities now.
She dared to openly call out "darling," indicating that the Bai Family ans nothing to her.
Even farting demands attention to the occasion, did she pay attention?
Bai Chong lowered his head; if he could do things flawlessly, would he still be stuck in the Bai Family?
He would have used his father’s influence to venture out long ago.
"Dad, what should we do now? Should I investigate Li Yang and then..."
Bai Jingxuan hurriedly said, "You want to die, just don’t drag our Bai Family down! Who brought that Li Yang over? No matter what, he has connections with the Zhao Family; what do you plan to do? Do you really think it’s still more than a decade ago? Nowadays, the faster you leap, the quicker you die! You desperately want to retire, don’t you?"
In recent years, the only standard for asuring power is the economy; only creating jobs and driving the economy are the criteria for assessnt.
Yet, the Bai Family lacks this capability because they don’t have money.
If you don’t promise the interests of Green Water Group, it might help greatly, but likewise, if you don’t promise, he wouldn’t be able to return to the Capital City.
If he misses the age, he won’t get the chance to return ever.
Relying on a few family wastrels to achieve great things? You might as well hope he alters his ID to be a few years younger.
The Bai Family is already stagnant; the marriage alliance was supposed to be the last support, at worst to sustain until the third generation grows up.
But now...
"Go investigate Li Yang, get the facts straight first."
"Alright."
...
A bowl of zhajiang noodles was pushed in front of Li Yang, and Xiangnu arrogantly said, "Mix the noodles for , I don’t know how."
It’s impossible not to know how to mix noodles, but Xiangnu needs to regain so dignity.
Li Yang put down his chopsticks, picked up Xiangnu’s bowl and chopsticks, and while mixing the noodles said, "You did quite a bit of help today, mixing noodles for you settles the score."
"That’s it?" Xiangnu couldn’t believe Li Yang’s shalessness had reached such astonishing levels.
"If you want to be angry, keep being angry."
Li Yang handed the mixed noodles to Xiangnu.
At that mont, Bai Qing also said, "Darling, the noodles you mixed look delicious."
Li Yang laughed, "Of course, I was born with a divine body for mixing noodles."
"Anyone who eats the noodles you mix is bound to die happy."
"Haha, more or less..."
"If you mixed noodles for , I’d be happy even if you gave a beating."
Xiangnu: "..."
This pair of shaless lovers, even mixing noodles becos a performance; why don’t you two beco actors?
Clearly, losing out from beginning to end, yet now it seems like she gained sothing.
Utterly disgusting!
After eating, Li Yang paid, and the three walked out of the noodle shop.
Xiangnu remarked, "Li Yang, you better be careful from now on; the Bai Family is the type of traditional family, you should know what tradition ans... I won’t step in to plead for you when the ti cos!"
What is tradition? Tradition ans still living decades or even decades past, or not mastering the thods and capabilities of the new era.
Tradition has no rules, yet now whoever uses it dies.
But this ti, Li Yang gave the Bai Family a heavy blow; they might pull him down with them before dying.
For the Bai Family, the worst that could happen is Bai Jingxuan retiring and then finding a scapegoat; they certainly wouldn’t take Bai Jingxuan’s life, would they?
The thods of the new era have already discarded those traditional forces; after all, anyone can go online, and anyone can complain, violent ans, simply can’t stay hidden.
Big family influence is significantly restricted due to the existence of the internet, and most small matters are tolerated if possible.
Quite a few have fallen in the Jing Circle due to trivial issues, and now almost every family is starting to adapt to the new era’s rule system.
