Chapter 703: Keep It A Secret
In her previous life, she had failed to find the person who landed her in that pitiful state.
All the clues pointed towards Bai Jingrou. Did that count as a conflict?
In this life, if she still remained helpless, all the misery she had previously experienced would repeat.
Thus, she could only endure right now.
She intended on returning Bai Jingrou the same pain which she had given her. She did not wish to depend upon anyone else. She would rely on her own abilities to kill Bai Jingrou!
Long Jingyuan was after all Bai Jingrou’s blood-related grandfather. Even when he heard that Bai Jingrou was after his life, he did not seem to wish to eliminate her.
After all, they were family.
Thus, Fang Xinxin smiled lightly. It was not suitable for her to say more about this. “Grandfather Long, I promise you I will never harm an innocent person. I’m only telling you this much because I hope for you to remain alive. I hope that you will consider my good intentions and keep my abilities, as well as the conversation we had today, a secret.”
She was keeping her own abilities hidden so as to eventually use them against Bai Jingrou’s hypnosis.
“Don’t worry. Grandfather Long won’t tell anyone.” Long Jingyuan guaranteed.
“Grandfather Long, you have to remain healthy and well.”
“I, Long Jingyuan, am not weak. Since I’m now on my guard, no one will be able to harm me.” Long Jingyuan stood up. “A lot of the guests present today are my old friends. I’ll go greet them.”
She nodded lightly.
A moment later, Bai Qinghao stepped into the living room. He sat down by her side. “What did you and Director Long talk about?”
“It’s nothing much. I just reminded him to be wary of Bai Jingrou.” She smiled.
“Bai Jingrou is indeed the type of woman who would even target her own family for money,” Bai Qinghao commented expressionlessly.
Fang Xinxin glanced at him in surprise. “You understand her so well?”
“I’m just relying on my intuition.” Bai Qinghao lifted her into a princess carry and headed to the main bedroom on the third floor.
Upon reaching the room, he placed her down on the bed.
He sat by the bedside and took in her stunning appearance. He murmured lovingly. “Xinxin, finally, the entire world knows that you’re my wife!”
The next day, Fang Xinxin only awoke in the afternoon. She opened her eyes to see Bai Qinghao laying by her side.
He watched her fixatedly and lovingly. From his gaze, it was as though he could have enough of her. “You’re awake?”
She glanced at the clock on the wall. “It’s afternoon. Why did you remain in bed with me till this time?”
“It’s the day after our wedding. It’s fine to laze in bed today.” He embraced her soft and slender body and pressed a deep kiss against her lips. “I couldn’t bear to leave you and this bed.”
“Haha.” She was overjoyed at his words. She lifted her hands and rubbed his cold cheeks. “I can’t bear to leave you either.”
“The butler will send someone up with food later. Let’s not leave the room today.”
“Really?” She lifted her brows. “What are we going to do here?”
“What do you think?”
In the end, they really had their meals in the room. Afterwards, they enjoyed a comfortable hot bath before returning to bed.
Fang Xinxin checked her phone and saw that Sun Jiamu had sent her a photo on WeChat this morning. She tapped on it and saw that it was actually a photo of Sun Jiamu and Fang Shaohua’s marriage certificate!
Xinxin embraced Bai Qinghao in agitation and kissed his cheek with a loud smacking noise.
Bai Qinghao lifted his brows. “Why are you so happy?”
