When Bai Xingchen found out about the relationship between Yun Ruhua and Yunfang Construction, which her company was about to acquire, and the misfortune that the Yun family had encountered, she had a premonition that Ruhua would come looking for her. She did not expect to meet her by chance while waiting. Just like when they first met, they met again on a rainy evening.
"I'm not interested in knowing about your family's grievances. I only know that Yunfang owes my bank ten million yuan. If it can't be paid by the stipulated time limit, it's reasonable and legal for me to buy Yunfang. If you don't believe me, you can follow me to look at the contract signed by both parties when you borrowed the money.”Bai Xingchen acted in a business-like manner. Yun Ruhua looked at the other party's serious expression and fell into helplessness. Her despair instantly turned into crystal beads of tears." I beg you to let the company go. I will think of a way to pay back the money owed to the bank with interest. I beg President Bai to give me a few more days. I beg you."”At this moment, Ruhua had given up on her usual aloofness. As long as she could protect the Yunfang Corporation, she was willing to kneel down to Bai Xingchen.
Bai Xingchen's heart ached as she looked at the woman's pink tears." As long as you agree to be my woman, not only can I write off the money Yunfang Corporation owes me, but I can also use my connections to get your father out of prison. I can even help your family deal with Ding Haoyu.”
The man's words were so certain that Ruhua had no choice but to believe him. She did not expect him to know everything about her." How did you know that my father was imprisoned?”
Bai Xingchen answered Ruhua's question with silence.
"Do you mean that as long as I become your lover, you can save my family's company and my father?”Ruhua still couldn't believe it. She didn't think that she had the charm to make men fall for her. Was it because she had a face that resembled Zhou Zixuan?
Bai Xingchen said," That's right. As long as you're my woman for two years, I can ensure that your family's company and your father are safe and sound.”
"Can I trust you?" Ruhua asked weakly.
Bai Xingchen remained silent as she replied to Ruhua.
Ruhua didn't want to sell her body to save the company and her father, but what else could she do? In any case, she had already given her body to this man. She was no longer innocent. Why should she care so much and be so stubborn? Moreover, she did not know how long she could live. She had to repay her father and grandmother's kindness while she was alive.
Ruhua gritted his teeth and decided to give it his all.
"I promise you, but I want to see that my family's company and my father are safe and sound before I can follow you.”Ruhua said righteously.
Bai Xingchen saw that Ruhua had agreed, and a faint smile appeared on his cold face.
Bai Xingchen immediately took out her phone and made a call." Shi Lei, stop the acquisition of Yunfang Group. At the same time, use the company's money to fill this hole. In addition, give me an advance of 25 million to the tax bureau.”
After that, Bai Xingchen gave some instructions to the other side of the phone before hanging up.
Ruhua did not expect Bai Xingchen to be so swift and decisive.
"Are you satisfied now?" Bai Xingchen looked into Ruhua's clear eyes and asked softly. His gentleness was the same as what Ruhua had seen that night when she was half-asleep.
Ruhua said gently," Thank you, President Bai."
Bai Xingchen did not give Ruhua a chance to speak. She lowered her head and kissed him deeply.
Bai Xingchen's kiss was hot and passionate as it moved downwards." I want to go home.”
Obviously, Ruhua saying that she wanted to go home at this time was a killjoy.
Bai Xingchen was slightly displeased." From this moment on, you are my woman. You cannot return to your original home. Also, bring your documents with you tomorrow to get a marriage certificate with me. Our marriage is for two years. After two years, we will go our separate ways. During these two years, we will keep our marriage a secret. You cannot let others know that you are my wife. You cannot casually date the opposite sex for these two years. You cannot disobey any of my orders for the next two years. In these two years, you are not allowed to spend the night anywhere other than my house. If you violate any of these rules, don't blame me for being rude to your family.”
"Alright, I promise you everything." Ruhua muttered to herself for a long time before helplessly agreeing to the man's unfair terms.
As for Bai Xingchen's unreasonable requests, Ruhua had no other choice. Two years was nothing to an ordinary person, but it was still unknown whether he could live for another two years. Ruhua was silent for a moment before he faintly agreed. Bai Xingchen had already recorded the conversation between the two of them with her phone, so Ruhua had no room for regret.
Ever since Zhou Zi Xuan's death, Bai Xing Chen had renamed their former love nest to Red Mansion Manor.
Bai Xingchen felt that her half-life fate with Zi Xuan was like the half of the Dream of the Red Chamber that she had left in the human world. It was an irreparable regret.
Ever since Zi Xuan passed away, Bai Xingchen had never brought another woman to spend the night at Red Mansion. Yun Ruhua was the first.
Bai Xingchen walked into the manor, holding her picturesque hand. She was very stupefied by the beautiful villa in front of her. At this moment, she felt like a puppet that was led by a man.
The decoration in the living room was very particular. It was made of top-notch mahogany furniture and priceless antiques.
The crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling was flowing with a soft silver-white light.
A maid in her fifties walked out. She was shocked to see the woman beside Bai Xingchen. Before the maid could speak, Bai Xingchen instructed," Aunt Liu, Madam is caught in the rain. Prepare a bowl of ginger soup and send it upstairs."”
Aunt Liu was stunned when she heard the word "Madam", but she did not dare to say anything more. She silently walked towards the kitchen.
Bai Xingchen carried Ruhua up the stairs.
There were many rooms upstairs. Bai Xingchen brought Ruhua to the westernmost room.
Bai Xingchen pointed to the room upstairs and then said in a commanding tone," Remember, you can go anywhere in this house, but you can't go to the room with the word 'seal' on the easternmost side. If you dare to go, I'll skin you alive."”As soon as he finished speaking, the man's deep eyes revealed a hair-raising cold light. Looking at the cold light shooting out of the man's eyes, she felt uneasy.
Bai Xingchen brought Ruhua to the westernmost room. It was a spotless bedroom with a large bed, bedside cabinets on both sides, and a kitchen. The decor was very warm.
Bai Xingchen gently placed Ruhua on the soft bed.
Ruhua used her hand to tidy up her messy hair." I heard that I look very similar to your wife. Is that why you want me to stay by your side? Ruhua noticed that Bai Xingchen was looking at her with a focused gaze, even a little infatuated. She knew that it wasn't her charm that made this man fall head over heels for her. It was because of the similar outline of her and his wife.
Bai Xingchen remained silent as usual. He only focused on the haggard little face in front of him.
After about three minutes, Mrs. Liu knocked on the door and said that the ginger soup was ready.
Bai Xingchen said.
Mrs. Liu opened the door and placed the ginger soup on the bedside table.
"Sir, would you like to eat Chinese food or Western food tonight?”Mrs. Liu asked carefully.
Bai Xingchen thought for a moment and then muttered to herself,""Chinese food. Madam likes Chinese food.”
Seeing that there were no other instructions, Mrs. Liu left.
Bai Xingchen saw that the ginger soup was no longer hot, so he personally came to feed Ruhua.
"No need, I'll do it myself." Ruhua wanted to take the bowl from the other party, but the other party brought the soup to his lips." You used to like me feeding you like this.‘The man's words were very vague, but Ruhua still heard it clearly. The other party had completely treated her as a substitute for Zhou Zixuan. At this moment, Bai Xingchen was living in a dream that he had woven himself.
When Ruhua returned to the bedroom from the bathroom, Bai Xingchen was not there. The emptiness of the room made Ruhua feel uneasy.
For some reason, Ruhua felt a sinister aura coming from a certain corner ever since he went up to the second floor. Could it be that the mistress of this house had passed away, but her ghost was unwilling to leave this house? Ruhua did not dare to think about it. The more she thought about it, the more afraid she became. She quickly pulled the blanket over herself and slowly closed her eyes, trying hard not to think about those terrible things. She knew that Bai Xingchen would not let her off tonight. Although her body already belonged to him, she had a high fever that night and was half-conscious. When she woke up, she did not remember what she had done with him. Ruhua lay quietly on the bed, like a concubine waiting for the emperor to visit her. She did not know where Bai Xingchen was at the moment, nor did she know when he would return.
Bai Xingchen was currently in the easternmost room with the word " Feng " pasted on it. That used to be his and Zhou Zixuan's bedroom.
Now, this room was filled with memories and Bai Xingchen's comfort from her longing.
A lifelike statue of a woman half the height of a human was quietly placed on the spacious bed.
The statue was wearing a white sand dress with roses at the hem, and there was a heart-shaped diamond ring on the ring finger of the statue's right hand.
Bai Xingchen turned on a table lamp, and a faint yellow glow circulated in the room.
Bai Xingchen walked over to the bed and silently hugged the lifelike sculpture in his arms. However, his long fingers were gently caressing the face of the sculpture in his arms. His caressing was very gentle, as if he was touching a living human face.、
" Xuanxuan, I know you must blame me for bringing Yun Ruhua home. Everything I've done is for our child. Only that woman can give birth to a child that resembles us the most, especially a child that resembles you the most. She will only stay here for two years. One year, she will help us conceive our child, and one year, she will help us raise our child. Two years later, I will make her disappear, and I will guard you and our child for the rest of my life. Don't worry, I won't put a wedding dress on her or put a ring on her. In my heart, Xuanxuan, you're my only bride. The marriage certificate that I'm going to get with her tomorrow is nothing. It's just a way for me to trap this substitute.”Bai Xingchen murmured softly. Under the dim light, the man's deep eyes were filled with tenderness and tears.
