“Compensate the lab for the losses according to the price...”

“Otherwise, these room records will soon be published on the front page of tomorrow’s headlines...”

Bai Jing waited for a reply with a leisurely expression. Her fingertips were holding onto the paper, and Bai Guangcai did not have any other choice.

He was angry but did not dare to go against Bai Jing. He took the details and looked at the sky-high price. His heart ached as he transferred the money. He wanted nothing more than to tear her into pieces as he glared angrily at her back as she returned to her room. He vented his anger on Qi Mei and Bai Yue as he kept cursing.

...

Downtown, in an apartment on a busy road.

Si Qian received the account information from the bank and was helpless.

He took out Bai Jing’s relevant information and scattered it on the coffee table. Si Qian’s eyes dimmed slightly as he used the projection screen to make a video call...

“Director Si? What instructions do you have?”

Qi Luan was wearing a bathrobe. His frivolous tone made Si Qian frown. He asked, “What should I do if there’s a woman who thinks I’m poor?”

“Pfft!”

Qi Luan almost spat out a mouthful of red wine. He leaned closer to the camera, full of curiosity and gossip. “There’s actually such a thing? Which woman is so blind?”

Si Qian impatiently wanted to hang up the phone. The moment his finger touched the call button, the other party hurriedly pleaded, “Wait, I have a way!”

Si Qian threw his body into the sofa and waited like an examiner.

Qi Luan did not blink for a whole half a minute. The image was as if there was a signal interruption. His brain was rapidly analyzing the situation, and he snapped his fingers.

“Spend money!” His reply made Si Qian pucker his thin lips, feeling regretful for seeking his opinion.

“Only by proving your financial strength can you make her change her opinion of you! Jewelry, dresses, bags... all women will like it!”

Si Qian paused and fiddled with his phone. A few seconds later, Qi Luan received a long shopping list and was speechless.

“Go and help me buy everything, as soon as possible,” Si Qian instructed and hung up before he refused.

Qi Luan shouted, “Director Si, did you call just to make me run errands?”

But Si Qian did not answer his words and hung up already.

During the changing seasons, Bai Chen’s body was getting weaker and weaker. He was rejecting the treatment medicine. Bai Jing stayed by his side to take care of him. She took the time to go back and forth between the laboratory and the villa. She stayed up all night to improve the medicine and looked haggard. Professor Dong could not bear this, so he wanted to help, but she rejected him.

“Can you help me find a mutated orchid?”

Bai Jing told him her request and even drew a picture. “If you have any news, please contact me immediately.”

Professor Dong immediately contacted a friend and told her to go home and wait.

The next morning, Bai Jing went to the kitchen and saw Bai Guangcai sitting at the dining table. He patted the back of Bai Yue’s hand with a proud face. 𝑓𝚛𝚎ℯ𝘸𝙚𝘣𝚗𝘰νeƖ.c𝒐𝐦

“Awesome! As expected of my daughter. She has such a high score in the postgraduate entrance exam. With your results, you can easily choose a graduate tutor. Who do you want to apply for?”

“I’m applying for Professor Dong. He’s at the top of the medical field. In the future, he can also help father and the company.”

Bai Yue was used to making him happy. Qi Mei looked at Bai Jing proudly and pretended to be casual. “What has Jing Jing been busy with recently? If she’s not interested in postgraduate studies, why don’t you find a job as soon as possible? Staying at home every day isn’t a solution either...”

“Instead of blindly developing drugs, why don’t we wait for Xiao Yue to come back from studying with Professor Dong and let her do it? At least we can save some unnecessary expenses.”

Qi Mei seemed to be gently persuading him, but every word made Bai Guangcai unable to hold back his anger. He slammed the dining table heavily and said, “You two siblings are debt collectors! You can’t do anything, and you still need to spend money to support yourself! You’re just eating idle food, yet you still have to put on the face of someone who owes you!”

“Just looking at you makes me lose my appetite!”

Bai Guangcai thought of the few CEOs and hinted, “You’ll attend a few dinner parties in a few days.”

“Bai Chen’s illness requires money. You have to think of a way to bring some benefits to the Bai family, right?” Bai Guangcai continued.

Bai Jing raised her eyes and put down the porcelain bowl. Her gaze swept over him and Qi Mei.

“You want to settle the score, right?”

“Then why don’t we talk about where the inheritance left by my mother, Madam Song Nianci, went?”

Bai Guangcai’s expression changed. How did she know?

He met Bai Jing’s eyes, which were able to see through the truth. He avoided her eyes guiltily, but he said stubbornly, “What inheritance? There’s no such thing!”

“All these years, the Bai family’s company has been in the red. How much of your extravagance came from my mother’s inheritance can be calculated clearly...”

Bai Jing propped her hands on the dining table and leaned forward. She looked at Bai Guangcai’s pale face and quivering lips. “You’d better think of a way to make up for it. Eat as much as you can and vomit as much as you can.”

“Don’t think you can get away with it!” Bai Jing said as she gave Qi Mei a sidelong glance.

She would slowly settle this debt with the Bai Family!𝑓𝘳ℯ𝒆w𝘦𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝘦𝚕.c𝗼𝓶
