Chapter 257 No one can stand it
Just as Yan Lan and Qin Shi were talking in low voices, Bai Xiaoyu, who had been waiting outside the door, walked in with unsteady steps.
Her face was extremely pale, and her lips were completely bloodless. Her body swayed, and suddenly her eyes rolled back, and she fell straight to the ground.
Seeing this, Qin Shi's face turned pale instantly. He rushed forward, hugged Bai Xiaoyu's limp body firmly, and shouted her name loudly.
When the sound of the ambulance came from far away, Qin Shi frowned, with an embarrassed look on his face, and said to Yan Lan,
"Yan Lan, Xiaoyu has no relatives in Beijing. I have to take her to the hospital."
Bai Xiaoyu arrived at the police station yesterday. In order to bail Qin Shi out, she did not eat or rest the whole night. Her body was already overwhelmed, so she fainted.
When Yan Lan heard Qin Shi's words, her heart sank again.
She suppressed her inner bitterness and said coldly,
"You don't need to explain your affairs to me. After she wakes up, go back to the villa. I have something to discuss with you."
The divorce agreement was still lying in the bedroom drawer. Yan Lan had already signed it and was waiting for Qin Shi to sign it.
The touch of emotion that had just welled up in her because of Qin Shi's concern for her disappeared without a trace when she saw the obvious anxiety on Qin Shi's face.
She has never been a generous person, especially when it comes to love, she is unwilling to share her lover with others.
After saying that, Yan Lan turned her head slightly and nodded politely towards Situ Qing as a greeting, then quickly turned around and walked out with big strides.
Zhao Nan watched all this from the side and felt a little uncomfortable.
He couldn't help but speak.
"Boss, the boss's wife was busy in a meeting today and didn't have lunch. She's also pregnant. You don't know how dangerous the board meeting was today."
He looked at Qin Shi with a hint of blame in his eyes. Today in the company, everyone on the board of directors was making things difficult for the boss's wife, but the boss was always with Bai Xiaoyu, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
This time, even he didn't want to speak for the boss anymore.
Qin Shi originally wanted to ask about what happened at the board meeting, but since he was at the police station, he couldn't ask too much.
He asked Zhao Nan to go back first and contact him later by phone.
"Mr. Situ, thank you so much this time."
Qin Shi realized the dissatisfaction in Zhao Nan's words and felt a little guilty. He calmed himself down and was about to thank Situ Qing when he extended his hand in a friendly manner.
However, his hand was awkwardly hanging in the air. Situ Qing glanced at him with a meaningful look, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he said with a smile,
"Mr. Qin, you don't have to thank me yet. Maybe in a few days, you will blame me."
After saying that, he completed the bail procedures and left.
Qin Shi sent Bai Xiaoyu to the hospital. With the help of the nurse, Bai Xiaoyu was quickly placed on the hospital bed and given an IV drip.
After a while, Bai Xiaoyu slowly opened her eyes. Her slightly pale face drooped, her eyes full of guilt, and she said in a weak voice,
“Brother Qin, this time it’s all my fault.
If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have fought with Master Chu."
As she spoke, her fingers tugged at the corner of the bed sheet nervously.
Qin Shi frowned slightly and looked at Bai Xiaoyu with complicated eyes.
Bai Xiaoyu's incident in the bar completely disrupted his carefully planned plan.
According to the previous arrangement, he only needed to report Mr. Chu anonymously, then search the other party's car for those illegal drugs, and follow the clues to find out the mastermind behind Mr. Chu.
However, Bai Xiaoyu's sudden situation forced him to change his strategy temporarily, and he had a head-on conflict with Chu Shao.
"Xiaoyu, you must have misunderstood. Even if that person wasn't you, I would still help you with what happened that night."
Qin Shi explained patiently, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
He looked at Bai Xiaoyu, thought of her miserable life experience, and swallowed back the blame that was on the tip of his tongue.
Bai Xiaoyu bit her lip and nodded gently, tears glistening in her eyes.
“Forget it, it has already happened, fortunately Chu Shao and his gang have been punished.
The doctor said you are a little sleep deprived, so you should rest well in the hospital first. I have already paid the hospitalization fee, and I have asked your roommates to come and take care of you.
I don’t want you to go to places like bars anymore.”
Qin Shi stood up. Yan Lan's cold expression kept appearing in his mind along the way. Yan Lan said that she had something to discuss with him.
The moment he was about to turn around and take a step, Bai Xiaoyu, who was lying weakly on the hospital bed, suddenly jumped up from the bed excitedly with strength that she didn't know where she got from.
Her eyes flashed with a fiery light, and she walked quickly forward, hugging Qin Shi's waist tightly with both hands from behind.
Bai Xiaoyu nestled her face tightly against Qin Shi's broad back, feeling the warmth coming from his body.
Her heart was beating violently, as if it was about to jump out of her chest. Even through her clothes, she could clearly feel her panicked heartbeat.
"Brother Qin, I like you."
Bai Xiaoyu blushed and mustered up the courage to speak out what had been hidden deep in her heart.
Her voice trembled slightly, with a hint of nervousness.
Qin Shi's body suddenly stiffened, and a hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
His muscles tensed up and he almost immediately struggled to break free from Bai Xiaoyu's hands.
He turned around, frowned slightly, and a complex expression appeared on his face, including surprise and helplessness.
"Xiaoyu, I'm already married.
Yan Lan is my wife, and she has our child."
Qin Shi frowned slightly, with a hint of helplessness and seriousness in his eyes.
At this moment, he felt a little regretful about his decision to have a secret marriage. If he had made it clear earlier, Bai Xiaoyu would not be as confused as she is now.
A hint of panic flashed across Bai Xiaoyu's eyes, but she quickly became determined again.
Her big, innocent eyes, like a little deer, were filled with longing. She stared straight at Qin Shi and said,
“I know.
I also know that you married Yan Lan because of the child. There is no love between the two of you.
Brother Qin, I don’t mind that you’ve been married before. I can wait for you to get divorced.”
Her voice trembled slightly, and her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, as if to cheer herself up.
When Qin Shi heard the word "divorce", his face instantly darkened and he felt inexplicably irritated.
He took a step back and said seriously,
“Do you know what you are talking about?
A good girl shouldn't be a mistress."
Bai Xiaoyu bit her lips, her eyes were red, tears were welling up in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.
"Brother Qin, how could I be a mistress?
Obviously, I knew you earlier, and Yan Lan is the mistress. He was the one who forced his way into the relationship between you and me."
She looked at Qin Shi, her eyes full of grievance.
“When it comes to love, there is no first come first served.
Besides, I won’t get a divorce.”
Qin Shi said this in a firm tone, leaving no room for negotiation.
He admitted that he had no choice but to marry Yan Lan in order to give his child a legitimate status.
But the time they had spent together over the past few months had changed his mind, and he had unknowingly developed feelings for Yan Lan.
Qin Shi had already made up his mind. When he returned to the villa, he would tell Yan Lan that the secret marriage was over.
He wanted to announce their marriage in a dignified manner and hold a grand wedding for Yan Lan to make up for the grievances she had suffered for so long.
Qin Shi no longer cared about his grandmother and Shen Yunzhong.
Anyway, he has been kicked out of the board of directors, and grandma and Shen Yunzhong no longer have any bargaining chips to threaten him.
In his opinion, the so-called family interests and power struggles are not as important as Yan Lan and the unborn child.
As for Qin, a hint of indifference flashed in his eyes. He silently calculated in his heart that he would use his own method to protect Qin.
Bai Xiaoyu had no idea when Qin Shi left.
When she heard Qin Shi's resolute words, she felt as if she was struck by lightning, and her whole body froze instantly.
Then, all the strength in her body seemed to be drained away by an invisible force, her legs went limp, and she fell onto the bed.
She covered her face with her hands, her shoulders trembling slightly, tears streaming from between her fingers. She knew in her heart that she had completely lost Brother Qin.
A feeling of resentment surged in her heart, and she kept thinking in her heart, it was obvious that she had met Brother Qin earlier, her academic qualifications were better than Yan Lan's, and she was younger than Yan Lan, so why didn't Brother Qin like her?
At this time, Bai Xiaoyu was in a state of disarray, staring ahead with empty eyes.
It wasn't until her cell phone suddenly rang that she seemed to be brought back to reality. She reached out her hand woodenly and picked up the phone.
"Sister Xiaoxue? What should I do?"
The moment he heard Yan Xue's voice, Bai Xiaoyu seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw. His emotions instantly broke out and he choked up as he told her everything that had happened.
On the other end of the phone, Yan Xue sneered in her heart after hearing this, thinking, that shameless vixen Yan Lan is only able to tie Qin Shi down by relying on the fact that she is pregnant.
In the dream, Qin Shi was so angry about Bai Xiaoyu that he even angered Mrs. Qin to death and eloped for love.
Could it be that if Yan Lan were to replace him, everything would change?
It's impossible. How could a boring woman like Yan Lan attract Qin Shi?
She began to comfort Bai Xiaoyu,
"Qin Shi said he won't divorce?
He had no choice, it must be because of the child.
You don't know how simple-minded that woman Yan Lan is. She won over Madam Qin and Old Man Qin, and transferred all the shares that originally belonged to Qin Shi to her own name.
If Qin Shi leaves now, she and the child will be left with nothing."
After a pause, she continued,
"Xiaoyu, don't cry. The reason why Qin Shi didn't want to divorce was definitely because of the child in Madam Qin's belly. Otherwise, with Qin Shi's previous personality, how could he have fallen in love with Yan Lan?
Listen to me, if you get pregnant with Qin Shi's child, he will definitely divorce Yan Lan for you and the child."
