Rebirth: Pampered Wife's Counterattack Chapter 532 - Settle The Dues

Chapter 532 - Settle The Dues

The moment he turned around, Fang Xinxin called out to him.

Her voice was clear and bright. "Doctor s.h.i.+, don't be in such a hurry to leave. We still have to 'reminisce about the past'."

"Miss Fang, I'm very busy. Let's reminisce some other time…" s.h.i.+ Qian dearly wished that his feet could begin flying.

Bai Qinghao's cold voice came from behind. "Stop right there."

s.h.i.+ Qian was about to step out of the villa's door. Now, he could only move his leg back. His signature smile seemed to be especially bitter today. "CEO Bai…"

The imperial decree instructed him to stop. Even if he was beaten to death, he wouldn't dare to run.

Liu Li glared at him unhappily and whispered. "Brother, you don't have any loyalty whatsoever. You actually tried to run away without me."

"Who says I was running? I'm just busy."

"What could you possibly be busy with? Didn't we agree to go drinking together tonight?"

"Quiet. Stop tearing down my stage. Are you trying to shorten my life?" s.h.i.+ Qian recalled the way Liu Li had nearly been shot to death after offending Fang Xinxin. The three days of training he had suffered were also worse than death. It was much more frightening than being killed on the spot.

Fang Xinxin smiled dazzlingly and innocently. She made for a stunning sight. "Doctor s.h.i.+, we haven't settled our bill yet. A gentleman like you won't leave his dues unpaid, right?"

"Aiyo." s.h.i.+ Qian took in her gorgeous smile.

Although she was beautiful, he felt his scalp p.r.i.c.kling with pain. "Miss Fang, what debts could be there between us?"

Fang Xinxin kindly reminded him. "I bought so many candies for you that your teeth nearly dropped from the sweetness. You wanted to kill me for it, didn't you?"

She then leaned into Bai Qinghao's arms and whined. "Qinghao, I previously treated Doctor s.h.i.+ to a meal out of the goodness in my heart. I even paid his bill at 'Imperial City'. Yet, he went around telling everyone that I caused him to lose his face…"

s.h.i.+ Qian's expression turned stiff. He glared at Liu Li hatefully and whispered. "This is all your fault. Look at this. I knew I wouldn't be able to escape from this. Would this have happened if you had kept your mouth shut?"

"How could I have known that this beautiful woman was Fang Xinxin, that ugly…" Liu Li was full of regrets. "I thought that she left, and that it was harmless to say those things. Why are you blaming me? If you weren't trying to s.n.a.t.c.h from me…"

He noticed Bai Qinghao's stern gaze and his heart immediately skipped a beat in fright.

Bai Qinghao asked coldly and heavily. "s.n.a.t.c.hing what?"

Liu Li trembled in fear.

If Boss found out that both s.h.i.+ Qian and he were pursuing Fang Xinxin, how were they supposed to hold onto their lives?

"s.n.a.t.c.h… s.n.a.t.c.h…" Liu Li was afraid of answering truthfully.

However, he was also afraid that the consequences would be far worse if he lied.

His youthful, rather charming complexion turned pale.

Fang Xinxin understood what Bai Qinghao was capable of doing when he was jealous. If he found out that the two idiots had tried to pursue her, they would be doomed to die.

Although s.h.i.+ Qian and Liu Li always disliked her, she knew from her past life that they were both very loyal to Bai Qinghao.

For Bai Qinghao's sake, she could not allow them to really die.

Thus, Fang Xinxin spoke up. "Liu Li and s.h.i.+ Qian were fighting to flatter me."

She wasn't lying. Instead, she chose to look over the fact that they did so to pursue her.

Liu Li rushed to nod. "Indeed, Boss."

Bai Qinghao's gaze turned meaningful for a moment but thankfully, he did not pursue the matter further.

Liu Li recalled the way he had insulted Fang Xinxin earlier. He even said that she wasn't good enough to be with Boss. Now, he felt regretful to the point of wanting to commit suicide.

He guessed that he would have to suffer another three days of special training.

He wondered if he would be lucky enough to hold onto his life after enduring it once more.

s.h.i.+ Qian took in Liu Li's pale complexion and patted him on the shoulder comfortingly.

This was because he knew that Liu Li had offended Fang Xinxin far more and was doomed to be way more pitiful than he would be.
