Therefore, Bai Yu immediately returned to her room after she was done eating. This annoyed Lin Jing a lot, thinking that Bai Yu wasn’t respecting her as a mother-in-law.

“Mom, calm down. What did Dr. Lu say after examining Big Brother’s eyes today?”

“It’s the same as always. The medicine Lu Mu prescribed for Fu Yunzhe is still with Butler Zhuang. Chen’er1, are we still switching it out?”

Fu Xiangchen’s expression changed drastically and he said, “Yes.”

Bai Yu was just about to greet Fu Yunzhe when she returned to the room, but she was grabbed by a large hand and her chin was seized. She was so shocked that when she looked into the man’s eyes, she found them to be bloodshot. Noticing something was off, Bai Yu quickly asked, “Young Master Fu, what’s wrong?”

“Bai Yu, how dare you drug me!”

“What?” Since when did she drug him? Wait! What drug?

Fu Yunzhe despised her pretentiousness. He must have been hoodwinked to let his guard down around her. “Still trying to play dumb? You just want to have a child with me, don’t you? Alright, I’ll fulfill your wish!”

…

The next day.

Bai Yu opened her eyes to see that it was already nine o’clock. When she recalled what happened last night, she wept out of grievance. Just then, the bathroom door opened and Fu Yunzhe walked out, clad in a bathrobe. By now, he had regained his stoic appearance. “Get out if you’re already up.”

As Bai Yu listened to his cold voice, she thought things had eased up a little between them, but now, it had gotten worse. Even so, Bai Yu would never admit to what she hadn’t done. “Whether you believe it or not, I really didn’t drug you last night.”

“Since you say it wasn’t you, take contraceptives so you won’t be slapping yourself in the face later.”

Bai Yu cried out of anger. This man had taken away her honor. Not only did he have nothing nice to say, but he was even worried that she would use a child to claim a reward from Old Master Fu. “You don’t have to worry about that. I don’t want to be pregnant with your child either.”

Fu Yunzhe’s expression changed slightly at this, but he ignored the displeasure in his heart and said coldly, “It better be true.”

At Civic Media Company.

“Assistant Bai, you’re more than an hour late!”

Bai Yu couldn’t speak her grievances. She couldn’t well say that she had been excessively tormented by someone last night. “I’m sorry, Manager Li. I was unwell, so I woke up late.”

“Forget it. On account of Director Bai, I won’t deduct your full attendance bonus this month.”

“Huh?” The other employees in the department started making a fuss after hearing this. Everyone knew that Li Ping wouldn’t do favors, so it was really unfair for her to make an exception for Bai Yu. However, no one could say anything since Bai Yu’s sister was the main reason. They could only discuss this among themselves.

However, Bai Yu didn’t want this. Li Ping and her sister, Bai Wanwan, were actually competitors, so, while it may seem that Li Ping was making an exception for Bai Yu, she was actually trying to trap Bai Yu instead. If Bai Yu accepted Li Ping’s ‘good intentions’, what would her colleagues think of her?

“Manager Li, you should deduct my bonus after all. You can’t lump me and my sister together.”

Right after Bai Yu said that, a voice spoke up, “Well said.”

Everyone looked over to see that Shen Qiran had come over for an inspection. They quickly greeted, “Hello, President Shen!”

As if she had become someone else, Li Ping walked over, swinging her hips. “President Shen, I was just about to send you some documents.”

“Let’s talk about that later.” Shen Qiran ignored Li Ping and looked at Bai Yu, signaling her to follow him. Bai Yu hesitated before following him out.

“So he’s here for Bai Yu…”

“Someone’s going to be upset.”

Li Ping couldn’t help but feel slightly embarrassed when she felt everyone’s eyes on her. Her gaze darkened as she looked at Bai Yu.

In the pantry, Shen Qiran personally made Bai Yu a cup of coffee. “Your sister cried on the way home. Go home after work today and have a nice chat with her. Clear up any misunderstandings.”

Bai Yu looked up at him. Shen Qiran had chiseled features so it was difficult to harbor ill intentions towards him. However, her relationship with Bai Wanwan wasn’t as simple as Shen Qiran assumed it to be, and it couldn’t be resolved just by talking it out.

“President Shen, if you’re here to discuss business, I’m all ears. But if it’s for a private matter, please forgive me for not entertaining you.”

Shen Qiran wasn’t angry at her retort. Instead, he smiled and said, “Alright, I won’t talk about it anymore. Please don’t be angry.”

When Bai Yu returned to her seat, she realized that she had brought back the coffee Shen Qiran brewed for her, and that attracted a lot of attention.
