Chapter 1922 - 1921: He Is the Best Man I Have Ever Met
Chapter 1922: Chapter 1921: He Is the Best Man I Have Ever Met
Mr. Bai was not just talking.
Ever since he found out that Bai Xiaoxiao was pregnant with a girl.
Mr. Bai not only enthusiastically bought baby products, but the very next day, announced he would renovate the house to create a princess room.
And insisted on doing it himself.
No matter how Mother Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao persuaded him, it was useless; he kept happily chanting that in a few months, he would become a grandfather.
A joyful event brings high spirits. Although Mr. Bai was not young anymore, and was managing the company while personally preparing everything for his granddaughter, he was in great spirits.
Bai Xiaoxiao didn’t know how long Luo Haofeng stayed in G City; since he took her home that day, she hadn’t seen Luo Haofeng again.
He really kept his promise and didn’t show up in front of her.
Bai Xiaoxiao continued to go to work every day, but instead of driving herself, she rode with her father.
On this day at noon, Bai Xiaoxiao received a call from Qiao Siyi, inviting her to lunch.
In a restaurant with an elegant environment, Qiao Siyi sat by the window, waved to Bai Xiaoxiao, and stood up politely when she saw her coming over.
When Bai Xiaoxiao arrived at the table, Qiao Siyi glanced at her slightly rounded belly and greeted her politely, "Miss Bai, please sit down."
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded, pulling out a chair to sit down.
After Bai Xiaoxiao sat down, Qiao Siyi followed and smiled, asking, "Miss Bai, how many months pregnant are you?"
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled faintly, and said candidly, "Over four months."
"I heard it’s a baby girl, congratulations Miss Bai, the baby will definitely be as beautiful as you are."
"Thank you."
The waiter came over, and Qiao Siyi asked what Bai Xiaoxiao would like to eat?
Bai Xiaoxiao casually ordered two dishes, and Qiao Siyi ordered a dish and a soup, "I came to this restaurant a few days ago, the food and soup here are quite good."
"I heard Miss Qiao is on a business trip in G City."
Bai Xiaoxiao said casually.
Qiao Siyi nodded, explaining gently, "Yes, I’ve been in G City for several days, I haven’t had time to call and congratulate you earlier because I was too busy."
"What’s there to congratulate about."
"Our CEO just returned to City B yesterday, I’ve heard about you and the CEO." After some polite words, Qiao Siyi revealed why she reached out to Bai Xiaoxiao.
Bai Xiaoxiao’s face changed slightly, she didn’t know how much Qiao Siyi knew.
Bai Xiaoxiao didn’t want anyone to know about what happened back then; after all, it wasn’t just a simple hurt.
"Miss Bai, I heard from the CEO that his mother hurt your mother many years ago, which is why you broke up with him."
Of course, Qiao Siyi couldn’t have learned the real reason from Luo Haofeng; such things were impossible for Luo Haofeng to tell her.
However, besides Luo Haofeng and Wu Jingfang, the people from the Qi Family knew about it too.
Qi Jianlin and his father ended up in jail just like Wu Jingfang.
Qiao Siyi coincidentally learned the truth from Qi Meiling.
She couldn’t believe it at the time; Wu Jingfang turned out to be such a vicious woman, and there’s nothing more cruel than having a group of men violate a woman.
However, in front of Bai Xiaoxiao, Qiao Siyi couldn’t say it directly.
A touch of indifference flashed across Bai Xiaoxiao’s face, "I’ve broken up with him, we have nothing to do with each other anymore."
"Miss Bai, I don’t know how your mother was hurt by the CEO’s mother, but I’ve seen more than anyone how deeply the CEO feels for you over the years."
Bai Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes concealing the fleeting emotions in her eyes.
"Miss Bai, do you remember the call I gave you back then?"
Qiao Siyi observed the subtle changes in Bai Xiaoxiao’s facial expressions; even if she hadn’t caught the fleeting emotions in her eyes, she could tell from her lowered brows and the faint sadness emanating from her, that she was deeply troubled.
"Miss Qiao, what do you want to say?"
Bai Xiaoxiao’s voice was very faint; if one didn’t listen carefully, no emotions could be detected.
Qiao Siyi pursed her lips, and said softly, "In all my life, I have never seen a man as deeply in love as the CEO is with Bai Xiaoxiao. During your time abroad, the CEO didn’t get close to any woman and didn’t even show a good face to any woman who admired him."
"..."
Bai Xiaoxiao just quietly listened without responding.
It seemed that Qiao Siyi merely wanted to tell her what she knew, not to make Bai Xiaoxiao agree with her view.
"In the CEO’s drawer, there’s a photo of Miss Bai, and when he misses you, he looks at the photo. He also has a photo of you on his phone. These things he said once when he was drunk."
Qiao Siyi’s voice was light, carrying a faint hint of sadness.
She was saddened by Luo Haofeng.
Or rather, she was feeling compassion for Luo Haofeng.
It wasn’t a deliberate expression of compassion, it was the kind of emotion that inevitably surfaced.
Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes flickered slightly.
She didn’t know if it was her imagination, but she felt that Qiao Siyi seemed to feel compassion for Luo Haofeng...
"I told Miss Bai last time, the CEO often drinks himself to sleep, and after he’s drunk, he calls out your name. But during the time you were together, the CEO was so happy and content, that not only I but everyone in the company noticed."
"The CEO has been pushing the company to expand to G City since last year so that he can live in G City after marrying Miss Bai..."
"Miss Bai, I’m not defending the CEO, but I’ve never met a better man than him. To prevent you from marrying far away and being lonely, he’s willing to expand the company and settle in G City."
Bai Xiaoxiao’s previously calm heart was stirred by Qiao Siyi’s words.
Although she knew about those things, hearing them from someone else, Bai Xiaoxiao couldn’t remain calm as water.
The waiter brought the dishes, and Qiao Siyi paused her words for a moment.
After the waiter left, Qiao Siyi continued, "Miss Bai, for the sake of the CEO’s deep feelings for you, don’t break up with him. Without you, he has returned to the indifferent person he was when you were abroad."
"Miss Qiao, thank you for telling me all this, but you don’t understand the grievances between me and Luo Haofeng."
Bai Xiaoxiao’s heart surged with waves, but her face remained calm and indifferent.
No matter how deep the wound, there’s no need to let outsiders see it.
Qiao Siyi anxiously said, "Miss Bai, those grievances are not between you and the CEO. The one who hurt your mother was Wu Jingfang, and the CEO has already severed his mother-son relationship with her..."
