Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 743 - 736: Seeking a Sense of Presence (Part 10)

Bai Yiran’s words completely infuriated Qi Hui. "Bai Yiran, what do you mean by this now? Are you not taking me seriously?"

"My eyes are small, they can’t accommodate someone as big as you." Bai Yiran masterfully showcased her ability to speak in a way that provokes others. Today, Qi Hui came here to publicly announce her pregnancy, and it was all to pick a fight and make her uncomfortable. Since that’s the case, why would she let Qi Hui feel comfortable?

Qi Hui sneered, "I knew it! What you said in front of Old Leng just now was all an act!"

Xiao Xi finished her milk, and Bai Yiran carried her up to pat her back before putting her down on the small bed to play with Xiao Lang.

"Yes, I’m just putting on an act." Bai Yiran looked at Qi Hui with an innocent face. "What do you want to do? Go tell Dad then~"

Qi Hui gritted her teeth. She really wanted Leng Liewei to see Bai Yiran’s current attitude. However, Leng Liewei was currently discussing business affairs with Leng Yichen, and it wouldn’t be appropriate for her to rush over and interrupt.

Besides, seeing Bai Yiran’s confident demeanor, Qi Hui believed that if she really went to find Leng Liewei, Bai Yiran would surely have a lot of excuses waiting for her.

Bai Yiran’s mind is clever. Back when she and Luna teamed up, they couldn’t deal with her and ended up suffering losses one after another at her hands. Qi Hui isn’t stupid; she won’t do anything that would harm herself. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Seeing that Qi Hui didn’t impulsively rush out immediately, Bai Yiran was slightly disappointed. Qi Hui has a brain, but if it were Luna, things might be different. Luna wouldn’t think too much and would definitely rush to find Leng Liewei in a moment of impulsiveness.

Thinking of this, Bai Yiran began to miss Luna a little. After all, a big-chested, brainless woman is better than a scheming one like Qi Hui.

However, Leng Liewei has yet to formally bring up divorce with Luna. That means there could still be many variables in the future; it’s uncertain what might happen.

The more arrogant Qi Hui is now, the more it shows her insecurity inside. She knows her own situation best.

Qi Hui, of course, knows the current situation. Bai Yiran is someone she cannot afford to offend, at least not for the time being. The future is uncertain, who knows? The tables will turn one day, and she’ll repay Bai Yiran tenfold, a hundredfold for today’s humiliation!

Bai Yiran observed the subtle changes in Qi Hui’s eyes, guessing her thoughts with close accuracy.

"Pregnant women should avoid getting angry all the time; it’s important to maintain emotional balance, otherwise, it could affect the child," Bai Yiran said softly, turning her attention away from Qi Hui and playing with the kids instead.

Qi Hui noticed the injuries on Bai Yiran’s hands. She’d actually seen the marks on her hands, face, and neck the moment she walked in. With this, it’s likely there are injuries on other parts of her body too.

At the dining table earlier, no one mentioned it; everyone seemed to deliberately avoid the topic to not affect Bai Yiran’s mood. So, Qi Hui refrained from saying anything then.

But now that it’s just the two of them, Qi Hui didn’t hold back and asked, "Are those injuries on your hands from when you were kidnapped?"

Upon hearing the word "kidnapped," Bai Yiran’s body visibly tensed. She looked at Xiao Lang and found that Xiao Lang didn’t seem to pay attention to Qi Hui’s words, still sincerely building blocks for Xiao Xi, which put her at ease.

"Some words shouldn’t be said in front of children. Don’t you, as an adult, know even this much?"

Instead of receiving an answer, Bai Yiran rebuked Qi Hui, leaving her feeling frustrated, yet she persisted in asking, "Apart from the injuries on your hands, are there others on your body?"
