Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 217 - 210: Reunion with Wu Chengzu

Bai Yiran looked at the roses in front of her and felt uncomfortable, unable to figure out who had sent them. She simply took the bouquet outside the office and distributed it to her colleagues. Some female colleagues took a few stems to place on their desks, and some male colleagues took a few stems to give to their girlfriends. Only Bai Qianyu stared at the flowers without moving.

"Yiran, who sent these to you? Was it the handsome guy who picked you up in a sports car yesterday? He’s so handsome!" Xiao Zhang buzzed in quickly from the front desk when he heard there were flowers to take.

"It wasn’t him," Bai Yiran replied casually.

"Then who was the handsome guy? He looked so familiar, but I couldn’t see him clearly because he was too far away."

Bai Yiran smiled lightly without answering, and Xiao Zhang, focused on the flowers, didn’t care whether Bai Yiran answered him or not.

"Some people are used to keeping a foot in two boats, maintaining ties with an ex while clinging to someone else," Bai Qianyu’s voice carried a sarcastic tone, and everyone present picked up on the underlying message.

Xiao Zhang foolishly asked, "Qianyu, what are you talking about?"

Bai Qianyu smiled, looking at Bai Yiran, "Sister, I wasn’t talking about you, don’t take it to heart."

Bai Qianyu’s words were clearly aimed at Bai Yiran. Over time, everyone gradually discovered that Bai Qianyu and Bai Yiran didn’t have a good relationship.

Bai Yiran chuckled, glancing at Bai Qianyu disdainfully. "What an idiot." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"Who are you talking about!" Bai Qianyu suddenly stood up from her seat.

Bai Yiran couldn’t be bothered to argue, "Whoever speaks, I’m talking about them."

Bai Qianyu’s face turned pale and flushed intermittently; she was about to retort when Yao Zhiqing emerged from the office. Seeing Bai Yiran distributing flowers, she eagerly came over to take a few. Bai Qianyu’s anger was stifled back, sulking as she sat down and hammered the keyboard, as if venting on it instead of Bai Yiran.

To Bai Yiran now, Bai Qianyu was more like a disruptive clown, just annoying to look at, but she did not see her as significant.

But who sent the flowers after all? Bai Yiran pondered with a headache, yet still couldn’t figure it out.

Returning to the office, a call came through with an international number; Bai Yiran’s expression softened instantly, her voice gentle, "Xiao Lang? Have you missed me?"

"Aunt Yiran, I miss you so much~" The voice on the other end was still childishly soft. "When are you coming back? Now that you’re gone, I’m the only Chinese here, they all ignore me..."

Listening to the child’s words, Bai Yiran felt somewhat melancholic but continued smiling, "Xiao Lang, wait for Auntie, I’ll definitely come back to see you."

"Okay!"

The child wanted to say more, but then an English-speaking woman’s voice came through, "Aunt Yiran, Aunt Lili found me..."

Before the child finished speaking, the call disconnected.

Bai Yiran stared at her phone for a long time, finally tossing it onto the desk, leaning back against her chair in despair, her thoughts full of the child’s image.

After a while, she opened her eyes, recomposed herself, and clicked on her computer.

Before leaving work, Bai Yiran sorted and printed out all the documents; some needed Yao Zhiqing’s signature. Starting tomorrow, Yao Zhiqing would be traveling abroad, so Bai Yiran wanted everything signed before end of the day.

Knock, knock, knock!

Bai Yiran knocked three times on the door.

After a brief pause, came Yao Zhiqing’s voice, "Come in."

Bai Yiran pushed the door open and entered Yao Zhiqing’s office, immediately seeing Yao Zhiqing seated at the desk facing her, while another man sat with his back to Bai Yiran.

"President Yao, these documents need your signature."

"Okay, bring them over."

Bai Yiran walked to Yao Zhiqing’s desk with the documents, only then noticing the man with his back turned to her.

"Miss Bai, we meet again."

Bai Yiran froze, "Mr. Wu!"

Bai Yiran had not anticipated encountering Wu Chengzu here.
