Chapter 589: Chapter 589: R-robbery?

Zhang Qin: “Bai Jingrui, can you let me finish what I have to say before you start talking?”

Bai Jingrui reached out, made a gesturing please motion, and politely smiled: “Go ahead, you first.”

Zhang Qin said: “My dad has recently become obsessed with maintaining his health, and every evening he takes this medicine. After taking it, he’s filled with energy, sleeps better, and feels more spirited. I took it for testing, and the hospital said this powder has no issues.”

Bai Jingrui: “So? You want to ask my sister for help?”

Zhang Qin smiled shyly: “Ah Rui, we truly are good friends, you really understand me.”

Bai Jingrui: “Who says I’m your good friend? I haven’t forgotten about your cousin bullying my sister last time! Qiu Xue is your cousin, but Qiaoqiao is my biological sister!”

“Ah Rui, I know, your sister is like my own sister, even closer than Qiu Xue is to me. I fiercely scolded her after the incident and cut ties with her. We’ve been good friends for so many years, we can’t let an outsider break us up, right?”

Bai Jingrui has known Zhang Qin for many years, their relationship is very strong.

You can’t blame him entirely for what happened last time either.

“I’ll ask my sister for her opinion first, after all, she was the victim last time. Even if she doesn’t help you, she’s still in the right!”

Zhang Qin agreed with a smile: “Of course, Qiaoqiao can do no wrong.”

Bai Jingrui held his phone and messaged Nan Qiao about it.

Nan Qiao replied quickly: Third Brother, this is your friend, the last incident wasn’t his fault either. Bring the medicine powder to me, and I’ll have it tested.

Nan Qiao knew that Zhang Qin and Bai Jingrui had a good relationship, and she couldn’t let others’ issues affect their bond.

Nan Qiao agreed to it.

Little did she know, this wasn’t a minor issue.

…

After replying, Nan Qiao was full as well.

Li Yehan called Secretary Zhao to clean up.

Nan Qiao leaned on the sofa, opened a short video app, and saw a video of Bai Jingrui and Zhang Qin together.

Zhang Qin: Robbery.

Bai Jingrui: Rob what?

BGM: Untie me, the most mysterious waiting.

It matched Bai Jingrui’s well-defined eight-pack abs and streamlined back. With the lighting behind, it was truly exciting to watch.

Nan Qiao exclaimed: “Third Brother’s body is really nice.”

Li Yehan: ?

Li Yehan walked over, lightly grazed his chin on Nan Qiao’s shoulder, and saw Bai Jingrui in the video.

“Qiaoqiao, after seeing my body, you can still compliment someone else’s? Just this?” Li Yehan scoffed.

Nan Qiao slightly turned her head, leaving only a millimeter between their lips.

Secretary Zhao cleaned up the dishes, saw the two seemingly about to kiss, and ran away with the trash scared.

Before leaving, he thoughtfully closed the door.

As long as he runs fast enough, he can avoid the public display of affection.

Secretary Zhao walked into the secretary room, saw the three secretaries having lunch, sat down, and said: “You guys know Bai Jingrui, right?”

Secretary Ren: “We know, what’s up?”

“You guys should follow his short video account, there’s a surprise tonight.”

Secretary Ren: “Is Bai Jingrui your relative?”

“Less talking, more following. Watch it or not, your choice, but I’ve said my piece.” Secretary Zhao smiled mysteriously.

The three secretaries became curious and stopped eating, getting out their phones to follow Bai Jingrui.

Four men, who originally weren’t into showbiz.

All because of Secretary Zhao’s words, they started following Bai Jingrui, awaiting the surprise.

At the moment, inside the office.

Nan Qiao didn’t kiss Li Yehan, and even avoided when he tried to kiss her.

“Li Yehan, how can you be jealous of even my brother? That’s not a good habit.”

“Qiaoqiao, I’m not jealous, I’m stating facts. Does Bai Jingrui have a better body than me? You touch it every day, don’t you know?”

Li Yehan’s words were quite direct, and Nan Qiao recalled their intimate moments, her cheeks flushed.

“I need to go out for a bit.”

Nan Qiao tried to leave, but Li Yehan pulled her back.

“Don’t go out, take a nap in the lounge.”

Eating makes one sleepy, and Nan Qiao was already tired.

Nan Qiao went to the lounge to nap.

Just as she lay down, Li Yehan lay down beside as well.

“Li Yehan, aren’t you supposed to be working?” In Nan Qiao’s impression, Li Yehan wasn’t one to take naps.

Li Yehan hugged her: “Work isn’t as important as being with you, Qiaoqiao, you’re the most important.”

Nan Qiao: “…”

Nan Qiao met Li Yehan’s gaze; he truly had changed.

The old Li Yehan had eyes as calm as an ancient well.

The current Li Yehan, after experience, had eyes full of desire and possessiveness.

The contrast was too stark.

At this moment, Nan Qiao could already sense changes in Li Yehan’s body.

So…

Nan Qiao quickly closed her eyes: “Sleep.”

Li Yehan smiled but didn’t laugh out loud, hugging Nan Qiao to sleep.

…

Bai Jingrui brought the medicine powder home, handed it to Nan Qiao.

“Sis, you’re not planning on researching it yourself, right? Is your health fine for such research? I think you should have your assistant do it, what’s his name again.” Bai Jingrui racked his brain: “Zheng Qinnian, yes, let him do it.”

Nan Qiao: “Third Brother, I know my own body the best. I’m just doing research, not risking my life, don’t worry.”

With Nan Qiao saying so, Bai Jingrui had no way to stop her.

When his sister set her mind to something, he could only agree.

So, Nan Qiao took the medicine powder and went to the home lab.

After Nan Qiao left, the previously lively atmosphere turned a little cold.

Li Yehan said unhappily: “Couldn’t you just go directly to Zheng Qinnian? Why trouble Qiaoqiao?”

Bai Jingrui: ??

“Are you blaming me?” Bai Jingrui asked incredulously.

“Who else would I blame?” Li Yehan retorted.

Bai Jingrui was so angry he could explode, glaring at Li Yehan, and furiously asked: “If I can’t go to my sister, who am I supposed to go to? I don’t even know anyone in this field! Aren’t you well-connected? Introduce me to someone else!”

Li Yehan: “Do I really need to introduce anyone? Don’t you know Zheng Qinnian?”

Bai Jingrui: “…”

Talking to Li Yehan could drive him mad.

At that moment, Chen Xinwan returned.

Seeing their ugly expressions from arguing, Chen Xinwan quickly walked over.

“Lao San, Ye Han, what are you two arguing about?” Chen Xinwan asked: “Ye Han, is it because Lao San was harsh? Did he bully you?”

Bai Jingrui: ??

“Mom, you really are my biological mom. He’s an outsider, yet you’re siding with him?”

Chen Xinwan: “Lao San, what you said is indeed excessive. Ye Han is family with you, how can you say I’m biased towards him? In your heart, is your mom this unreasonable?”

Bai Jingrui: “…”

How heartbreaking.

Clearly, he was the one aggrieved, yet after Chen Xinwan’s words, he felt like the bully, which made him even angrier.

“Mom, you really are my mom. How could this be my fault? Let me tell you, here’s what happened…”

Bai Jingrui explained everything very clearly.

He thought Chen Xinwan would side with him, but things didn’t turn out as he expected.
