Chapter 375: Chapter 370 Thank You for the Compliment
"Ah!"
Bi Qingyun, looking utterly distraught, had just stepped out of the hospital when he was bumped by a young man walking towards him. His phone fell to the ground with a ’clap’.
He quickly turned around to look at the phone on the ground, his face changing color. Just as he was about to bend down to pick it up, a pair of hands grabbed it before him. The young man who had bumped into him apologized and carefully checked Bi Qingyun’s phone before dusting it off and handing it back to him. "I’m sorry, Uncle. I didn’t mean to. My dad is in the hospital, and I’m a bit anxious."
Looking at the anxious young man, Bi Qingyun suddenly thought, he’s much older than Bi Xia. If he’s so upset about his father being sick, how devastated must little Bi Xia have been when he heard about his father’s death?
Perhaps trying to make himself feel better, Bi Qingyun waved at the young man. "It’s okay. Just be more careful next time."
"Uncle Jianbo, why did you leave?"
The phone rang, and a clear youthful voice came from the other side. Sitting in the car, Bi Qingyun forced a smile and spoke gently. "I’m sorry, Xiao Xia. Uncle just got a call from the shop saying there’s an issue. I have to go back quickly."
Listening to the boy’s momentary silence, followed by a bit of sadness yet still cheerfully saying it’s fine, Bi Qingyun felt deeply sorry for Bi Xia.
Sitting dazed in the car, Bi Qingyun suddenly felt like he had returned to the past. A child ran towards him yelling ’Dad’ as he returned home, while his beautiful and charming wife smiled gently. The two of them kissed and talked about everything that happened that day.
"You are now Bi Jian Country, not Bi Qingyun!"
Xu Liren’s words suddenly jumped into his mind, and cold sweat started flowing down Bi Qingyun’s body. Hearing the boy’s worried inquiry over the phone, Bi Qingyun shook his head and suddenly asked, "Xiao Xia, do you hate your dad?"
The boy did not answer for a long time; then, with a hoarse voice choked with emotion, he said, "I just wish he could come back."
With a loud ’bang’, Bi Qingyun felt deeply inhuman. He so much wanted to tell Bi Xia that he was his father, to tell Xia Shi that her husband was still alive, and they could start over! But now he couldn’t...
"Xiao Xia, what would you do if someone forced you to do something?" Bi Qingyun slowly asked.
The boy paused, his voice carrying pure clarity yet hiding infinite temptation. "I would... take everything from that person. Then everything would belong to me, and some things could go back to how they were..."
The phone call ended, and Bi Qingyun stared ahead blankly, a single phrase replaying endlessly in his mind -
"Take it back, and everything will return to the start..."
Yes, if Xu Liren lost the Xu Family Banquet she was so proud of, if Director Liu behind Xu Liren fell, then everything would come back to him, and no one would stop him...
His sons were so excellent, and his wife was still so beautiful and charming. His family was waiting for him... As long as he could go back, they would be happy. By that time, all he needed to do was explain everything clearly, right?
Thinking about the photos and the video in that email, Bi Qingyun coldly smiled. Xu Liren, you dared to send these things to my home. Since you’ve gone too far, don’t blame me for being ruthless!
If people don’t fight for themselves, the heavens will destroy them... Besides, I’m still a man. How could I be oppressed by a woman for my whole life...
Watching a car drive away in the distance, a young man in a red sports car pushed up his sunglasses. He reached for his phone and pressed the number 1, dialing a contact labeled ’Nine Ah Nine’.
"What did you hear?"
The voice on the other end, different from the gentle tone heard on Bi Qingyun’s phone, was now somewhat cold yet felt very natural.
Xu Renfei laughed. "It was like a great show. As soon as the device was in place, I heard everything. This bug works well."
Bi Xia said, "Well, you should know whose people you’re dealing with. By the way, come home later. Wait for me downstairs."
After a quick acknowledgement, Xu Renfei lazily replied, "Come down soon. I’m bored to death down here. By the way, Nine, you’re amazing."
"Ha," a light laugh. "Thanks for the compliment."
