Kiss the wrong pregnant bride

Chapter 043 Chain Reaction

Zuo's.

Zuo Xiaomo looked at the cell phone that kept blinking on the desk, and frowned secretly, "Hello?"

"Mo, there is some good news, do you want to hear it?" Bai Zhenzhen asked with a smile. The tense mood of the past few days has relaxed a lot at this moment. She is standing in the garden of the Bai family, surrounded by bodyguards waiting in full force, and the breeze blows her The hair on the shoulders makes the whole person look extraordinarily ethereal and dusty.

Zuo Xiaomo raised his eyebrows slightly: "What?"

"Little Lin is back."

His complexion suddenly darkened, this news is not very good for Zuo Xiaomo, but he pretended to be relaxed and said: "That's good, it seems that Dad can rest assured now."

"Yeah, that kid has changed a lot since he disappeared this time, and he has matured a lot." Bai Zhenzhen said with emotion.

"Are you at home now?" Zuo Xiaomo asked.

"kindness."

"I'll be right over." After hanging up the phone, he immediately cleared the table, left the office quickly, entrusted Ji Wenxiu with full authority over the company's affairs, and drove to Bai's house by himself.

Old Man Bai was lying on the bed with a gloomy face, with an IV drip on the back of his hand. The energetic old man was showing vicissitudes at the moment. Bai Xiaolin knelt by the bed, lowered his eyebrows and looked down, as if he was letting him beat and scold him.

"You still know how to come back?" Old Master Bai said angrily. When he thought that this rebellious son had gone missing, he wished he could strangle him to death!

Bai Xiaolin lowered his head and bit his lips lightly, "Dad, I swear, this is the last time I will be self-willed. I will follow what you said, study obediently, and then take over the company."

Old Man Bai glanced at him unexpectedly, "Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

This child didn't like the life of a wealthy family since he was a child, and yearned for the ordinary life of ordinary people. How come he hasn't seen him for a few days and has changed so much?

Bai Xiaolin straightened his back, looked at him tenaciously, and said word by word: "Because I have a reason to grow up! I have to pay the same price for what I get. Since I am a member of the Bai family, I You have to shoulder your own responsibilities!"

These words...

A gleam of relief flashed in old man Bai's eyes, "Who taught you?"

"A friend." Bai Xiaolin said with a smile in his clear eyes.

"Hmph, I just trust you just once." After all, he is his most beloved son, and it is impossible for Mr. Bai to really teach him a lesson, "Go back to your room, and I will make up for all the lessons you missed in the past few days. In addition, Revisit the etiquette training again, such a grown-up person, how to play and disappear all day long? If I don’t teach you a lesson, you won’t remember it long.”

Bai Xiaolin smiled embarrassingly, his face was flushed red by the lesson, and after talking with old man Bai for a while, he got up and left the room. As soon as he went out, he bumped into Zuo Xiaomo who rushed over. The smile on his face suddenly turned into politeness, "Brother-in-law, sister."

"Are you back?" Zuo Xiaomo asked calmly with a cold face, but his sharp eyes sized him up from top to bottom. It was indeed as Bai Zhenzhen said, his whole person had almost undergone a complete transformation.

"Well, I have worried you these days." Bai Xiaolin bowed politely to thank, "There will be no next time."

"Just come back." Zuo Xiaomo's eyes flashed suddenly, a gratified smile rose on his face, and he patted Bai Xiaolin's shoulder.

Ling Xiaoxi didn't know anything about what happened in the Bai family. She was intensively preparing for the cooperation plan with Zuo's family. The design was almost finalized and sent to the factory for jewelry processing. The rest was just promotion in the later stage. and publicity.

She has been busy for more than a month, and she is not free until now. She left the company early and planned to go to the bar to relax. Since returning to China, she has lived in a tense mood almost every day. There were almost no people there, Ling Xiaoxi opened the door and entered the lobby, and the wind chime hanging at the door made a crisp and pleasant sound.

"Bartender, a glass of vodka." Sitting on the high stool, she opened her mouth lazily, unlike the capable and serious person in the company, and not like the politeness and affectation when facing Zuo Xiaomo. At this time, she faded away. The mask on his face is as lazy as a cat, charming and moving.

"Huh? Yuhan?" Zuo Ruoxin's surprised voice came from behind, Ling Xiaoxi's eyes flashed suddenly, and the smile on her face faded a bit. She turned her head and saw Zuo Ruoxin coming down from the box. Ruoxin.

"Why are you here?" Frowning slightly, she asked first.

"I came here to drink with some friends, how about you? Are you off work so early?" Zuo Ruoxin trotted up to her, grabbed Ling Xiaoxi's neck, and said affectionately.

"Yeah, I just finished a big project, come here and relax." Ling Xiaoxi shrugged, with a hint of fatigue remaining between his brows.

"Is it a cooperation with my brother?" Zuo Ruoxin asked tentatively, "Don't try too hard, it's just cooperation, even if it messes up, I will help you to plead with my brother."

There was a trace of disdain in Ling Xiaoxi's eyes, no matter how much Zuo Xiaomo loved this younger sister, he would never compromise on business because of her, Ling Xiaoxi firmly believed in this.

"Your brother agrees to you coming to this kind of place?" She didn't answer Zuo Ruoxin's words, but turned around and asked with some doubts.

"How is it possible!" Zuo Ruoxin exclaimed, "If my brother finds out, I will die."

"Then you still dare to come?" Ling Xiaoxi sighed helplessly.

"Brother is not at home. I went to my sister-in-law's natal house. I will take advantage of this time to come out to get some air."

Back to Bai's house?

Ling Xiaoxi immediately thought of it, isn't today the day when Bai Xiaolin goes back?Zuo Xiaomo probably went to fight for his performance in front of Mr. Bai. Mr. Bai is old, and he is probably planning to find an heir for the Bai family's property. Either Bai Xiaolin or Bai Zhenzhen, Bai Xiaolin is too young to There is no way to gain a firm foothold in the company, what about Bai Zhenzhen?But she is already married, if she is selected as the heir, I am afraid that the property of the Bai family will fall into the hands of Zuo Xiaomo.

Ling Xiaoxi is constantly analyzing Zuo Xiaomo's every move in her mind, she never fights uncertain battles, and if she wants to make Bai Zhenzhen pay the price, she must think carefully about every step and never make any mistakes.

"What are you thinking?" Zuo Ruoxin stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her eyes.

"It's nothing, I'm thinking about some work matters." Ling Xiaoxi quickly suppressed the absent-mindedness in his eyes, and said naturally.

Just as Zuo Ruoxin was about to say something, the phone in her handbag rang. When she looked at the caller ID, the smile on her face suddenly turned into resentment. Ling Xiaoxi shook the cup in her hand, and she could guess it without looking. , the caller must be Zuo Xiaomo.

"Brother..." Zuo Ruoxin answered the phone with a rather resentful tone, "I'm not at home, Yuhan and I are drinking tea outside."

Ling Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect that she would pull herself out as a shield, Zuo Ruoxin handed her the phone in front of her, as if begging her to smooth things over, Ling Xiaoxi reluctantly put down the wine glass in his hand, and took the phone :"Hello?"

"Miss Ling, are you and Ruoxin really drinking tea outside?" Zuo Xiaomo wanted to find someone when he received a call from the nanny saying that Zuo Ruoxin was not at home, but he didn't expect that his sister would Stay with Ling Xiaoxi.

"Yes." Ling Xiaoxi said naturally, "It's in the tea house in the city center, why, Mr. Zuo is planning to come too?"

"No," Zuo Xiaomo resolutely vetoed, "Since she's with you, I feel much more at ease."

He is so assured of himself?

Ling Xiaoxi's bright eyes suddenly flickered a few times, secretly startled by Zuo Xiaomo's ambiguous words.

She didn't think that Zuo Xiaomo would easily let go of his guard against her, at least at this stage it was impossible.

Zuo Ruoxin took the phone away, muttering something to Zuo Xiaomo, and finally her face was full of resentment.

"What's wrong?" Ling Xiaoxi raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously.

"My brother wants to accompany my sister-in-law to dinner at her mother's house, so let me pick up Xiaoyu from school instead of my sister-in-law. Really, I have a special gathering with my friends today. How can I have this free time?" He noticed the instant ecstasy flashing across Ling Xiaoxi's face.

Suppressing the churning joy in her heart, she pretended to be calm and said, "How about I go there for you?"

Zuo Ruoxin's eyes lit up, and she was about to agree, but she didn't know what she thought of, so she shook her head quickly: "Forget it, I'll go by myself."

"Can't you trust me?" Ling Xiaoxi looked sad, "That's right, you are rich, you have to be careful all the time."

"Hey! Where did you go? Because Xiaoyu was kidnapped before, you must be extremely careful. My brother has already said that unless you are a relative, otherwise, you can't disclose the address where Xiaoyu goes to school. I can't help it." Zuo Ruoxin sighed helplessly, "I see, my brother was bitten by a snake once, and he was afraid of well ropes for ten years."

"Been kidnapped?" This was the first time Ling Xiaoxi heard about this, she knocked over the glass beside her elbow in a panic, it shattered with a clang, and the glass fell to the floor, her pretty face turned pale, It was as if he had heard some bad news.

"Why are you so nervous?" Zuo Ruoxin looked at her suspiciously, only feeling that her reaction was a bit too much, "It's normal for someone like Xiaoyu to encounter such a thing."

"Really?" Ling Xiaoxi forced himself to calm down, but his face was still pale and bloodless, "This is the first time I saw kidnapping in real life, and I always thought it was a nonsense plot in a TV series."

Her child, who is still so young, is going to encounter such a tribulation?

In an instant, my heart felt as if it was tightly entangled with countless wires, and it hurt so badly.

Zuo Ruoxin gave her a blank look, as if she had never seen the world: "You are too surprised, that time the maid at home contacted the gangsters and leaked Xiaoyu's whereabouts, but brother Xiaoyu was rescued, and since then, Xiaoyu has been surrounded by a lot of bodyguards for personal protection, and there are people guarding around the villa 24 hours a day, so it is impossible for any accidents to happen again."

She said carelessly, without any scruples on her face.

Hearing this, Ling Xiaoxi's enthusiasm for improvement was barely subdued. Fortunately, it sounds like the child's situation should be safe, but she hated Zuo Xiaomo and Bai Zhenzhen a little bit in her heart. A little more, and a little more care, the child will not encounter such a thing at such a young age!

"I won't tell you anymore, I'll go upstairs first, you drink slowly." Zuo Ruoxin waved his hand, jumped off the high stool, and was about to return to the box.

"Ruoxin." Ling Xiaoxi suddenly called out behind her.

"Why?" Zuo Ruoxin turned around, her face extremely confused.

"Would you like to pick up Xiaoyu from school with you later?" Ling Xiaoxi suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked in a calm manner.

Zuo Ruoxin shook her head: "Forget it, I'll go by myself."

Ling Xiaoxi's bright eyes suddenly dimmed, just wanting to see his son, but it has become an unrealistic wish.

How cruel this is to her.
