Chapter 77: Sending You To Your Date (2)
Rebirth: Pampered Wife’s Counterattack
In their previous life, Fang Lilan had forcefully brought her to meet Bai Chenxi exactly in this manner.
Afterward, Fang Lilan had made a phone call to Bai Qinghao where she claimed that Fang Xinxin told her that she arranged to meet Bai Qinghao at the Yue Ya Cafe. She had pretended to be concerned and asked Bai Qinghao as to when he would send her home.
With her phone call, Fang Lilan had managed to mislead him and ensured her own innocence. As a result, Bai Qinghao misunderstood that Fang Xinxin had gone to meet her lover again after lying to her mother!
In actuality, even in her previous life, she had refused to meet Bai Chenxi at this time.
This was because... she was scared of Bai Qinghao.
In the end, she was betrayed by her own mother but remained blind to the fact.
Fang Xinxin kept her phone away from her motherâs sight and opened up her WeChat. She sent Bai Qinghao a message asking him to answer her video call without making any noise.
She then muted her phone and dialed Bai Qinghaoâs number.
This way, there wouldnât be any sound from their call.
Bai Qinghao answered her call quickly. She adjusted the microphone volume to the highest so that he could hear their conversation clearly.
As she had already sent him a message, she did not worry that Bai Qinghao would make any noise.
After doing this, she said, âMom, even if Bai Chenxi is waiting for me at Yue Ya Cafe, I donât wish to see him. Donât force me to go. Besides, since when have the two of you been on speaking terms? He actually called you to make arrangements to meet me?â
âThatâs because he was worried that you wonât come.â Fang Lilan was focused on driving and did not notice that Fang Xinxin had called Bai Qinghao.
âBai Chenxi is the person-in-charge of the Chen Xi Enterprise. He is an outstanding man with a good family background. He treats you well. The two of you are childhood friends, and most importantly, you like...â
At this moment, Fang Xinxin keenly sensed that Bai Qinghaoâs expression had to be really dark.
She glanced at the screen. Although the call was connected, all she could see was a patch of blurry grey. She guessed that Bai Qinghao had covered the camera with something.
Still, she was sure that he could hear their conversation clearly.
Fang Xinxin rushed to speak up. âI grew up interacting with a lot of people. Iâm only acquainted with Bai Chenxi. How could we possibly count as childhood friends? Iâm Bai Qinghaoâs fiancée. I donât like anyone else. Why do you and my second sister keep trying to pair us up? Arenât you afraid that Bai Qinghao will be angry when he finds out?â
Fang Lilan glanced at Fang Xinxin in suspicion. âIf you donât say anything, how will Bai Qinghao find out? And who says you donât like Bai Chenxi? Whenever you see him, your eyes are shining.â
â...â
Fang Xinxin glanced at the screen involuntarily. All she could see was black.
It seemed to hint at Bai Qinghaoâs currently dark feelings. It was likely her life would be as dark as this after the conversation.
âThatâs because Iâm filial. I tried to make my eyes shine each time I saw Bai Chenxi.â Fang Xinxin answered calmly.
âYou and my sister are always nagging me and forcing me to like Bai Chenxi. Itâs really hard to do something that goes completely against my own feelings. Mom, although you both always talk about how great Bai Chenxi is, I donât find him attractive at all. I hate him!â
As expected, after saying this, the pitch-black screen returned to the earlier grey color. It seemed like she could still reverse the situation.
Fang Lilan reprimanded her.âWhy do you have such poor eyes for judging people...â
âIâm good at judging people. I think Bai Qinghao is great.â
âBai Qinghao isnât good. His personality is violent. He is cold and heartless. He doesnât suit you at all.â Fang Lilanâs tone was resolute and firm.
