Chapter 143 Ruan Liuzheng: Bai Huanqing, do you dare to admit the relationship between us?

When Xie Qingcen heard this, he gently raised his eyes, and when his dark eyes met Fu Yanci's gaze on Ruan Liuzheng, he frowned slightly.

But he only frowned, and did not speak.

Since it was Ruan Liuzheng who initiated the conversation, she must have her own ideas, so he gave the initiative of this conversation to Ruan Liuzheng.

As long as it was not too excessive, he would not intervene.

A faint arc appeared at the corner of Xie Qingcen's thin lips, and he lazily leaned back on the sofa chair, with a sense of nonchalance in his lazy posture.

Ruan Liuzheng realized Xie Qingcen's thoughts almost the moment Xie Qingcen moved.

She laughed inaudibly, then turned her head, with no emotion in her cold eyes.

She said expressionlessly, "The reason you came here today is to make Bai Huanqing, in your arms, face reality."

Ruan Liuzheng paused, her brows raised, a chill flickering across her cold eyes. "Bai Huanqing, it's time to return what you and your daughter have so painstakingly stolen."

Fu Yanci's brows furrowed unconsciously as a flicker of deep confusion flashed in her dark eyes.

He followed Ruan Liuzheng's gaze to Bai Huanqing in her arms, his lips curling into a thin line.

His gaze was remarkably clear.

He didn't seem to be speaking up for Bai Huanqing. Instead, like Ruan Liuzheng, he waited for her reaction.

Fu Yanci had always known that Bai Huanqing wasn't as innocent as she appeared. She had her own little thoughts and secrets.

However, he had selectively ignored the things Bai Huanqing had concealed from him.

The wealthy world is a hodgepodge, and everyone has their own agenda.

Even the best-protected cannot remain pure and kind forever.

Moreover, if Bai Huanqing truly remained as innocent as she appeared, she would have long since been devoured by those malicious individuals in her circle.

There would be no place for her.

As long as Bai Huanqing didn't cross his line, as long as she still loved him, Fu Yanci would always tolerate Bai Huanqing and keep her in his heart.

After all, after the Ruan Liuzheng incident, Bai Huanqing was probably his best choice in the entire upper class of Yuncheng.

Not to mention, they were childhood sweethearts.

He still cared about and liked Bai Huanqing, a love that even surpassed Ruan Liuzheng's.

Therefore, his infidelity and falling in love with someone else didn't seem fake.

But Fu Yanci didn't really want to toy with Ruan Liuzheng's feelings, as he only slowly discovered his love for Bai Huanqing after they got married.

He could only blame himself for being too immature and having a shallow understanding of love.

But...

Fu Yanci suddenly looked in the direction of Ruan Liuzheng. He pursed his lips, and his dark eyes dimmed uncontrollably.

He still greedily wanted to keep Ruan Liuzheng.

Such an outstanding, such a cold and aloof woman, who in this world could not be moved by her.

However, a woman like Ruan Liuzheng is only suitable to be put on the shelf, but not suitable to be a real wife. She is too outstanding. She

is so outstanding that any man can't help but feel ashamed of himself.

Fu Yanci never denied his meanness. Every time facing Ruan Liuzheng's questioning, he could only answer with silence.

No one wants to expose their own unbearableness to the sun, and he is the same.

However, at this moment, Fu Yanci had to stand on Ruan Liuzheng's side.

He saw -

he lowered his eyes slightly, and his dark eyes looked fixedly at Bai Huanqing in his arms, with an ambiguous meaning in his eyes.

Thinking of what Ruan Liuzheng had just said, he asked with a tense face, "Huanqing, do you have any other purpose for coming here today?"

The expression on Bai Huanqing's face froze for a moment.

Almost the moment she reacted, her eyes reddened and her teeth bit her lower lip tightly.

She didn't say a word, but her silent appearance was particularly pitiful.

Fu Yanci was her last trump card, and she couldn't afford to lose him again.

Especially after learning about Fu Yanci's relationship with the Xie family.

Bai Huanqing lowered her eyes sadly, her voice as soft as a mosquito, but it just expressed her heartbreak.

She shrugged lightly. "Brother Yanci... don't you believe me?"

"I don't know why Sister Liuzheng says that, but everything my mother and I have is earned through our own abilities. It has nothing to do with outsiders."

Bai Huanqing raised her head, tears welling in her clear eyes, a look of grievance. "If Sister Liuzheng harbors resentment towards me because of what happened just now, then I am willing to apologize. I just hope you won't slander my mother and me again."

She looked at Ruan Liuzheng with a pitiful look, her tone full of righteousness.

It was a bit like her old style.

Ruan Liuzheng glanced at Fu Yanci, who was full of anger and eager to stand up for Bai Huanqing. The corners of her lips curled up slightly.

She had used the same trick again, and Fu Yanci still fell for it.

What a fool.

She narrowed her eyes and sneered, "Bai Huanqing, you have time to act, so let me ask you, do you dare to tell Fu Yanci about our relationship and what you and Feng Zhuyi have done in the past?"

Bai Huanqing had never expected Ruan Liuzheng to be so direct in revealing the secret she had worked so hard to hide.

She thought that with Ruan Liuzheng's pride, she would never bother to have anything to do with her or the Bai family again.

After all, when she was kicked out of the Bai family, she was so resolute.

But Ruan Liuzheng's current behavior had completely caught her off guard.

Bai Huanqing froze slightly.

Facing Fu Yanci's strange gaze, she was a little at a loss.

However, Fu Yanci was not going to give her a chance to escape.

He and Bai Huanqing were going to get married in the future. From the time they met until now, Bai Huanqing knew everything about him, but he didn't seem to know much about Bai Huanqing.

Except for some of her little thoughts.

So before Bai Huanqing could find her words, Fu Yanci took the initiative, a faint glint in his dark eyes. He

opened his lips and said, "Huanqing, what does Ruan Liuzheng mean? What is it that your Bai family is hiding from me?"

Fu Yanci glanced up at Ruan Liuzheng, who was not far away. His deep voice carried a hint of authority that brooked no argument.

He would no longer tolerate Bai Huanqing's petty tricks.

At this point, Fu Yanci had some sense and finally stopped being deceived by Bai Huanqing.

Ruan Liuzheng sat leisurely on the sofa, her expression light and expressionless. She saw through Fu Yanci's thoughts at a glance.

Although it was a bit ironic, it had to be said that she was indeed enjoying the show.

Compared to her, Bai Huanqing seemed to be on pins and needles. She didn't even have time to hide the tears in her eyes as she stared blankly at Fu Yanci.

Her clear eyes held a sense of uneasiness and anxiety that she herself wasn't aware of.
