âAfter finishing her speech, Bai Wei didnât even look at Qin Youxuan sideways as she turned her attention to commanding the bodyguards next to her.
âWhat are you all standing around for? Hurry up and carry my luggage upstairs, Iâll be staying in the room next to Jieâs.â
ââ¦â
Qin Youxuan watched Bai Wei, who was swiftly preparing to go upstairs, and took quite a while to come back to her senses.
For the first time, she had been mistaken for a maid.
With her head lowered, Qin Youxuan checked out her own look.
No matter how she looked, she felt that the woman named Bai Wei was blinded. How did she, in any way, resemble a servant?
Although Qin Youxuan was disturbed, she refrained from losing her temper. Instead, she observed Bai Weiâs authoritative instruction to the bodyguards with amusement, and felt even more unwilling to argue.
She lazily raised her eyes towards Yao, who had been stunned.
âWait a secâââ
Finally, just as Bai Wei was about to head upstairs, Yao stopped her.
âMiss Bai, Mr. Jie didnât mention anything about you coming back to the country todayâ¦â
âJust because Jie didnât know does not mean he wonât agree. Anyway, Iâm back now. Are you planning to send me away?â
ââ¦â
âYou wouldnât dare!â Bai Wei stared at Yao who was indeed considering how to send her away, her face hardened with anger.
âYao, donât think Iâm clueless about whatâs going on while Iâm overseas. Just because youâve found a woman of unknown background doesnât mean she can take my place. Donât forget, I am the only person who can make Jie feel relaxed enough to sleep. No one can replace me in Jieâs heart!â Bai Wei said with arrogant pride, lifting her head.
Her beautiful face looked increasingly haughty.
ââ¦â
Yao glanced at the stunned Qin Youxuan, dared not stop Bai Wei any longer, and let her go upstairs.
Only when Bai Wei disappeared around the corner of the staircase did Yao turn back to Qin Youxuan and cautiously start speaking, âMiss Qinâ¦â
âDoes she know me?â Qin Youxuanâs eyes narrowed slightly, she asked this question in a calm tone.
Her tone was light, yet full of certainty.
As she had thought, there wasnât a single thing about her that resembled a servant, yet that woman named Bai Wei continued to humiliate her relentlessly. So it turned out she was aware of her existence from the beginning.
What was the meaning behind what she just said?
The first person who made Dan Hanjie feel relaxed enough to sleep wasâ¦
Did they sleep together?
âBecause you are my medicine.â
The words Dan Hanjie once told her echoed in her head, and Qin Youxuan held her throbbing temples.
Too much information rushed into her mind at once, making her head hurt.
âMiss Qin, Iâ¦â Yao looked at Qin Youxuan, whose face had whitened, not knowing what to say.
He didnât expect Bai Wei to abruptly return and catch everyone off guard.
In the previous confrontation, Bai Weiâs behavior was not simply arrogant. It was clear that she was demonstrating her superiority over Qin Youxuan.
Thankfully, Qin Youxuan didnât seem to take the matter to heart. She allowed Bai Wei to throw her tantrum nonchalantly, which further highlighted Bai Weiâs lack of manners.
âIf youâre not at liberty to tell me, I can ask her myself,â Qin Youxuan tried to calm herself down, lifted her head, and threw a glance at the hesitant Yao.
âThisâ¦â
âStill canât say it? Then donât force yourself, Iâll find out on my own.â Qin Youxuan walked past Yao, preparing to go upstairs.
She had only taken a few steps when she was stopped by Yao, âMiss Qin, I donât have the right to answer your questions for Mr. Jie. But if you really want to know the truth, itâs best to ask Mr. Jie directly.â
ââ¦â
Qin Youxuan paused, turning her head to look at him.
Yao, however, had already withdrawn his hand and stepped aside.
âMiss Qin, Mr. Jie instructed you to rest on time. Wait for him to come back. Whatever you want to know, you will naturally get the answer.â
