Love So Sweet

458 Why Should Bai Qi Pity Them?

Zhang Li Xue did not quickly ask Bai Qi about that man earlier.

She decided to let Bai Qi drive peacefully until they safely reached their apartment on the west side of the city.

Once they arrived, Bai Qi habitually helped his wife with the door and carried her to the wheelchair. Then, the couple returned to the apartment together.

Zhang Li Xue wheeled herself to the living room and turned around to stare at Bai Qi.

Seeing his little fairy staring at him made Bai Qi smile.

His wife was curious to know what happened, but she patiently waited until he brought up that story again.

Bai Qi ignored her gaze and went to the kitchen first. Then, he came out to the living room again with a glass of water in his hand. “Have a drink first.”

Zhang Li Xue glanced at the glass. Then, she picked it up and drank the water under Bai Qi’s gaze. Once she was done, Bai Qi put the glass on the table before he carried her to sit in his embrace. Of course, he was very careful with her leg.

He wanted to look after his wife first and let her be comfortable before they would speak.

.....

This was a habit that he had developed after marrying Zhang Li Xue. Whatever it is that he was going to do, Bai Qi would always make sure that his wife was comfortable.

She was his priority.

Before he married Zhang Li Xue, her family had treated her like a princess. Now that she was his wife, of course, he was going to treat her like his queen.

“Are you curious to know what happened?” Bai Qi spoke after a long silence between them.

Zhang Li Xue nodded.

“Then, why don’t you ask?”

“I wanted to wait until you are ready,” Zhang Li Xue said. “Moreover... you would say it if it is something you want to tell me.”

Bai Qi leaned over to kiss his wife on the tip of her nose. Then, he inhaled a deep breath while pondering how he should start telling his wife what happened.

“That person earlier,” Bai Qi began. “He was a brother of my father’s friend.” He saw the puzzled look on Zhang Li Xue’s face and smiled. “You do remember that Uncle Wei is helping me with the matter in S Country?”

Zhang Li Xue nodded. Her eyes lit up as a few thoughts came to her mind.

“That person is called Bo Liu. His brother, Bo Jing was my late father’s friend,” Bai Qi said. “According to the investigation report from Uncle Wei, Bo Jing was among those people who tricked my late father until he lost everything in the company.”

That bankruptcy had caused his father to choose suicide. His mother then became too sad that she passed away after giving birth to his little sister.

Just like that, he and his little sister had become an orphan.

Then, everyone began to keep their distance from him and his sister. There were not a lot of people who were willing to help them.

“What did he want from you?” Zhang Li Xue said.

“I’m guessing that the investigation in S Country has begun and that Bo Jing was taken away by the authority,” Bai Qi said. “With Uncle Wei and his friend’s help, that person might have to pay a lot of money and serve a few years in prison for what he does.”

Bai Qi had listened to Wei Jun Hao’s friend’s explanation the last time. What Bo Jing and a few others had done was a crime. They had also forged a few documents just to cheat his father’s money.

“Now that Bo Jing will have to serve prison for a few years, his brother wanted me to stop the case and investigation,” Bai Qi continued. “They wanted to give back the money that they have taken in exchange. According to them, Bo Jing was already old and unwell. They hoped that I can ask your uncle to help reduce their sentences.”

Zhang Li Xue continued to observe Bai Qi silently as he continued to tell her what happened.

Although she could see his calm expression, Zhang Li Xue could guess just how he must be feeling at this time.

His father was betrayed by his good friend for money.

That tragedy had made him lose his family. He was still young and should be enjoying his youth. But because of what happened, Bai Qi had to work hard while raising his sister alone.

Back then, when Bai Qi’s father was facing such difficulties, he should have met this Bo Jing and asked for his help.

However, this friend did not help him but instead push him deeper into a miserable state.

After what that person had done to Bai Qi’s family, why should he help them?

They don’t care about the siblings. Bai Xi Xi was still a baby. After Bai Qi was left alone, none of them even care to pretend to offer the siblings some help. They got the money and thought that the world was theirs.

Why should Bai Qi pity them?

Zhang Li Xue grew frustrated when she thought of how Bai Qi was treated. Her parents-in-law were too pitiful. They did not even get to see their daughter grow up.

“Then, what are you planning to do?” Zhang Li Xue asked. “You... are not planning to listen to that person, right?”

Zhang Li Xue was worried.

Her husband was such a nice person. Who knew if he would pity that old man and decide to let him suffer less for what they have done?

Subconsciously, Zhang Li Xue began to hold Bai Qi a little tighter.

Her heart was aching for him.

“Of course, not.” Bai Qi let out a chuckle. He hugged the little fairy in his arms and kissed her cheek. “I already spoke to Uncle Wei yesterday. I already agreed to let him handle everything. I won’t meddle with that court case or investigation.”

Zhang Li Xue heaved a breath of relief. Then, she recalled how that old man had come to look for Bai Qi at the hospital. “But, what if he came to find you at the hospital again?”

“You don’t have to worry about it. Uncle Wei and Uncle Qi Zheng are already helping me with this matter.”

Knowing that her uncles will help Bai Qi, Zhang Li Xue was finally at ease.
