Chapter 593 Can You Afford to Return the Debt?

Wei Lan was astonished at the extent of the child’s charisma. As for Bai Zhenfeng, he obviously was not in a good mood lately; and except for Bai Luoyin, everyone else heard his scolding the most.

Bai Zhenfeng’s life could only be described with one word: ‘sorrowful’. He was standing outside and could only watch on as Wei Lan and the rest sat together and ate while his face became darker and darker. Yet, the smile on Wei Lan’s face became brighter and brighter. This made him feel that it was unfair. On what basis could they have so much fun, but he could only get angry?

Xia Ruoxin walked out from the kitchen holding a dish, and instantly, the fragrance of the dish filled the whole room. It was so fragrant that even Bai Zhenfeng swallowed his own saliva instinctively.

“I have never eaten such authentic Chinese food in a long time. We’ve been here for too long, and I have already forgotten how the sky looked like back in my hometown. Thank you, Ruoxin, for letting me eat such delicious food,” said Wei Lan genuinely. The recent times were the best and happiest times of her life, not forgetting the small child. “Come, let Granny feed you.” She lowered her head and carefully fed the Rainy sitting in her lap. Right, she could not let the child go hungry as when she went out, the child would give her a lot of face.

“If Auntie likes it, we could always go back to eat.” Ruoxin smiled. Even though they were separated by half the world and however they came, they could just go back the same way.

If they really wanted to, they could go back anytime they want. However, if they did not want to be willing and were not willing, they would give all sorts of excuses for themselves to not go back.

“That’s right.” Suddenly, Wei Lan understood everything. It was as though she woke up from her slumber. She had evidently lost her ability to think in her life here, and living under the influence of Bai Zhenfeng, she had completely forgotten that she could do so many other things like going back to her hometown to see how things had changed.

“Yes, that’s great! I want to go back, too; and just nice, I’m going to graduate soon so I can accompany Mom back and see if there’s a chance for me to open another studio. Better still, I can find someone who is just like Sister-in-law. That way, I wouldn’t ever starve to death.”

Gao Yi’s mouth was busy munching on food, but once he heard his mother’s suggestion, he was evidently very supportive as his mother had finally become smarter and knew how to live for herself. That way, as her son, of course; he wanted to be with her. Maybe he could really have his brother’s good luck and meet a nice woman just like Xia Ruoxin.

Gao Yi rolled his eyes at him and said, “There’s only one Ruoxin in this world.” Sadly, he had already settled on Ruoxin so Gao Xin could only find someone else.

“So petty, can’t I just use her as a benchmark?” Gao Xin stuffed his mouth with food again. Eating was his priority as he could not do so after a while.

Without their knowledge, the man—who had been standing here for a long while—had just left not too long ago.

Bai Zhenfeng locked himself up in his room and opened his drawer carefully to take out a woman’s photograph. His face looked as cold as ice. The woman in the photograph looked very similar to Bai Luoyin, and she was Bai Luoyin’s mother, the woman that he had loved his whole life. Moreover, this woman also looked similar to Wei Lan. However, after time had pa.s.sed and as the young grew old and the small became big, Wei Lan’s similarity could not be compared to Bai Luoyin’s.

Whenever he was in a bad mood, he would take the photograph out to look at it. Just that this time, he was wrong-really wrong. The more he looked at it, the worse he felt. He was going to lose his wife, and this big house would be left with him alone. His daughter would get married, and his stepsons wereafter all—not biological.

He threw the photograph back into the drawer, without the careful movements like the past. He was getting old, and he needed his daughter. However, what he needed most was a wife that could take care of him-not a photograph that he would use to reminisce his whole life.

He walked back and forth anxiously. The recent times were really the worst days of his life. No matter how much he pressured them, they continued to live their lives peacefully; and he could hear their laughter every day, which made him feel even worse.

This would not do. If this continued, this family would be separated.

After getting her daughter to sleep, she rubbed her shoulders gently and turned to look at the still unfamiliar room. Her face darkened a little. This was a foreign country, a foreign place.

She walked to the front of the table and took out a box carefully and opened it. Inside the box was a pearl necklace with more than a hundred pearls. The pearls were of similar size and were all in order. Her fingers carefully touched the pearls in the box, and subconsciously, the scene from the past played in her head. When she finally realized it, she noticed her face was starting to get cold. She had unknowingly started crying.

She hurriedly closed the lid of the box and kept the box before wiping the tears on her face. This box was given to her by Du Jingtang, but when she opened it, she realized it was not given by him—but by Chu Lui instead. The necklace was his.

There was a note inside that said ‘I destroyed your happiness with my own two hands. Now, I’ll return everything to you personally. Please keep this. Just take it as a memento, okay?’

Just that, could he afford to return it?

She sat by her daughter’s side and gently caressed her daughter’s face. Was she really happy now? She really did not know.

There was a knock on the door, and she stood up and hurriedly walked over to open it.

She thought it was Wei Lan, but she was wrong. The person standing outside was not Wei Lan, but it was Bai Zhenfeng.

“Why, this is my house; can’t I even enter the room?” Bai Zhenfeng kept a cold face on the whole time as he was never friendly towards Xia Ruoxin.

“Sure, come in.” Xia Ruoxin stood aside immediately, but she was afraid of her daughter sound asleep on the couch. She wished her daughter would not wake up now, and all the terrible scolding would just land on her alone, such that her innocent daughter would not be harmed anymore.

“Just say. How much money do you want for you to leave Gao Yi, leave my house?” Bai Zhenfeng spurted without even sitting. Towards Xia Ruoxin, he had only feelings of anger and frustration since the very start. “Just state your price. Or do you think when you marry Gao Yi, you can take everything from the Bai family? Well, you’re wrong. Even if you managed to marry Gao Yi, my Bai family fortune will never be his… and impossible to be yours. What belongs to the Bai family would only Bai Luoyin’s. Only when Gao Yi marries my daughter can he inherit everything from the Bai family. If he refuses, then he could only be a measly doctor.”
