On this side, Bai Jinghong had also left the Yun family home.
It wasn’t that Bai Jinghong didn’t want to stay longer, but it wasn’t really convenient to do anything there at the moment, and he couldn’t rush things either.
Only when Yun Mengxi returned to that villa would the exciting things…
As for that prick Ye Chen, Bai Jinghong didn’t need to go looking for trouble with him for now.
Ye Chen, being the protagonist, was shrouded in an aura of Luck.
But in fact, the protagonist was also a calamity star. Whether men or women, anyone close to the protagonist was prone to trouble, which the protagonist would eventually solve.
He faced constant trouble, big and small, attracting a great deal of hatred.
Either being extorted and exposing their lies, slapping faces, or being mocked by thugs and beating them up.
Or seeking revenge on minor characters, or showing off.
Bai Jinghong had no interest in small-scale scenes.
The exhibition in two days—that was the big scene where Ye Chen would show off. Feng Shui Masters were highly respected in the business world.
It would also allow Ye Chen to encounter fortuitous opportunities meant for him, make connections with some big shots, and naturally, slap a few faces too.
And making Ye Chen “gain widespread notoriety” at the exhibition was the top priority.
Getting into his sports car, Bai Jinghong returned to the Bai Estate.
He happened to run into the Four Golden Flowers preparing to go out.
“What are you guys up to?”
Bai Jinghong felt a stirring just looking at the four women.
The four of them standing together was truly a blinding sight.
Seeing Bai Jinghong return, the four women also went up to him, hugging his arms on both sides.
“We were just about to go shopping. Do you want to come along?”
The four looked at Bai Jinghong with expectant eyes, staring intently.
“I just got back, so I won’t go. You girls go have fun. Buy whatever you want, my treat.”
With the four of them going out together, Bai Jinghong was at ease.
Even if some blind fools set their sights on them and tried anything untoward, they’d just be courting death. No one else could be blamed.
Being beautiful wasn’t a crime, but they were venomous!
“Alright,” the four girls said, slightly disappointed.
However, Shen Yaoyao spoke up at this time. “Jinghong, Sister has been a bit off today. Maybe you should go check on her.”
“Yeah, she didn’t go out today, just stayed at home. And when we went to call her, she said she was very tired.”
The corner of Bai Jinghong’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch.
He naturally knew exactly what this situation was about.
“Alright, I know. I’ll go see her now. You girls go have fun!”
Bai Jinghong gave a gentle smile and waved to the four.
Once the four had left, Bai Jinghong thought for a moment, then chose to go see Bai Ruoxi.
Although he had chosen to lay the plot bare, which meant pursuing his sister romantically.
He couldn’t let his sister just mope like this, either.
Meals had to be eaten one bite at a time!
The villa Bai Ruoxi lived in wasn’t very far from his own. Bai Jinghong soon made his way over to her place.
“What should I say when I get there?”
Bai Jinghong muttered to himself as he walked inside.
The villa’s main hall was empty.
Bai Jinghong figured she must be hiding in her bedroom.
So, Bai Jinghong went up to the second floor and arrived at the door of Bai Ruoxi’s boudoir.
He placed his hand on the doorknob and opened it naturally, walking right in.
The room was very fragrant, filled with Bai Ruoxi’s unique scent.
Mixed within it was a hint of fresh shower gel fragrance.
Upon opening the door, Bai Jinghong froze on the spot.
And Bai Ruoxi was also instantly dumbfounded.
At that moment, Bai Ruoxi was in a state right after bathing.
A white bath towel was wrapped around her chest.
Because Bai Jinghong had opened the door, Bai Ruoxi was startled. That bath towel unexpectedly loosened and fell.
A peerless figure, supple, fair skin dotted with small beads of water, as if emitting a hazy luster, creating an astonishingly stunning sight.
Bai Ruoxi’s beauty wasn’t the kind of sensuality that made one’s blood boil; it was closer to artistic elegance.
It made one intoxicated but not wild, enchanted but not crazed, even giving rise to an impulse to cherish and protect.
“Jinghong, you… you turn around, quick!”
Bai Ruoxi finally came back to her senses. Her face burned like fire as she hastily grabbed the bath towel to cover herself.
She was truly very shy. Although some “embarrassing” things had happened with Bai Jinghong yesterday.
She hadn’t been seen so thoroughly then.
And today, of all things, this idiot had a brain fart and thought to come to her boudoir.
Having her body looked at like this, even if he was her younger brother, was absolutely not okay.
She was truly a little angry, angry at Bai Jinghong’s recklessness.
“I’m screwed!” This phrase flashed through Bai Jinghong’s mind. He really hadn’t done it on purpose.
If Shen Yaoyao and the others hadn’t brought it up just now, he wouldn’t have come.
But now that it had happened, he had to find a way to deal with it.
“What to do, what to do?”
“Right, play dead!”
Bai Ruoxi was just about to scold him when Bai Jinghong’s eyes suddenly rolled back, and he collapsed straight to the floor.
Seeing this, Bai Ruoxi’s anger mostly dissipated, replaced by worry.
She was greatly alarmed and hurriedly ran over, reaching out to hug Bai Jinghong.
“Jinghong… what’s wrong with you?”
Bai Jinghong’s eyes were tightly shut. He looked as if he had truly fainted.
Bai Ruoxi couldn’t worry about anything else and hurriedly helped Bai Jinghong onto her bed.
Just as she got him onto the bed, Bai Jinghong slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing him wake up, Bai Ruoxi quickly adjusted the slipping bath towel back in place, her beautiful eyes full of concern.
“Jinghong, what happened to you? Don’t scare your sister!”
Bai Jinghong thought to himself how truly shameless he was.
To actually think of playing dead.
He rubbed his forehead and quickly said, “Sis, I didn’t do it on purpose. I just heard from Yaoyao and the others that you seemed to be in a bad mood, so I came to check on you!”
“I didn’t know you had just finished showering.”
Bai Jinghong’s state just now had truly terrified Bai Ruoxi. Whether he saw or not didn’t matter anymore, as long as he was okay.
“What happened to you just now? Why did you faint? I’ll have someone come check on you!”
Bai Jinghong shook his head, indicating it was just a bit of low blood sugar.
As a joke, when it came to medical treatment, he was a ceiling-level existence himself. What need was there for doctors?
But while speaking, Bai Jinghong couldn’t help stealing a glance at Bai Ruoxi’s chest.
Half of the fair fullness was exposed, its luster soft and beautiful. Bai Jinghong was starting to feel heated up.
Although he and Bai Ruoxi weren’t related by blood, she didn’t know that. Thinking like this was truly heading down a path straight to the orthopedic ward.
Following Bai Jinghong’s gaze, Bai Ruoxi also looked down at her own chest.
She blushed deeply and quickly turned aside to cover herself. “You little brat, is your sister someone you can tease?”
But turning aside like this, she suddenly felt something hard pressing against her. Looking down, she saw it was Bai Jinghong’s… tent pitched for wilderness survival.
Bai Jinghong was also a bit embarrassed. He hastily found an excuse: “Would you believe me if I said it’s because my bladder is full?”
Such crude words reached Bai Ruoxi’s ears, making her blush down to her neck in embarrassment.
She hurriedly clutched her bath towel and stood up. “You… you rest for a bit. Your sister will have someone come check on you in a while!”
Saying this, she quickly ran to the walk-in closet.
Bai Ruoxi leaned against the inner door of the walk-in closet, her heart pounding non-stop.
She also hadn’t expected that so many things would happen one after another.
The scene after scene of her kissing Bai Jinghong last night now surfaced in her mind.
Bai Ruoxi quickly shook her head, trying to shake those messy images out.
Finally, she calmed down, changed her clothes, and then walked out of the walk-in closet.
Bai Jinghong was still lying on Bai Ruoxi’s bed, looking at a photo of Bai Ruoxi with a sweet smile on her nightstand. “Better be a wife after all!”
“Jinghong, what are you saying?”
Bai Ruoxi walked out just in time to hear Bai Jinghong muttering.
“Ah? Nothing! I was just saying, whoever gets to marry Sister as his wife, it must be like green smoke rising from his ancestral graves.”
Bai Jinghong made up an excuse, his gaze falling on Bai Ruoxi again.
At this moment, she had changed into an elegant and pure outfit.
It was a small white blouse on top, with a blue floral long skirt below. Her beautiful hair was tied up, looking neat and spirited, with a graceful sense of slender elegance.
