”I hope Miss Bai can be generous and let me and Yun Zhu live.”

”Oh ~ ~ ~ What do you mean? I remember that I didn't feel sorry for you guys. Even when Mu Yunzhu asked me to cancel the engagement, I readily agreed to it. Is that not considered being magnanimous?” Bai Qi took a sip of the coffee in front of him and placed the cup down before replying in a nonchalant manner.

”If Miss Bai is really willing to help us, why did you have Yun Zhu return all the rewards? You know it's a huge sum of money and it can't be raised in a short week. ”

Shen Xiao, is there something wrong with your head? This dividend originally belongs to me, and now that Mu Yunzhu wants to rescind the engagement with me, I want my own things back. Could it be that you really think that I am a white lotus that can take such a huge loss?! ”

Being scolded by Bai Qi in front of so many people, Shen Xiao almost couldn't control her temper. But as she thought of her next plan, she forcefully suppressed the anger in her heart.

”Yun Zhu's father does not agree with me and Yun Zhu being together. I came this time because I hope Miss Bai can persuade Yun Zhu's father to help us achieve our goal.”

When Bai Qi heard Shen Xiao speak of this request with such a matter-of-fact tone, he couldn't help but laugh.

Shen Xiao originally had a huge feeling of inferiority in her heart when facing Bai Qi. Now, her nerves were stretched taut. Bai Qi's laughter had become the last straw that broke the camel's back.

She suddenly stood up and asked in an exceptionally sharp voice, ”What are you laughing at?”

Bai Qi leaned leisurely against the sofa, his right index finger lightly tapping on the table. A faint smile appeared on his face as he looked at the flustered and exasperated Shen Xiao.

”If I want to laugh, then laugh. This doesn't seem to belong to you, Shen Xiaoxiao, right?” Without waiting for Shen Xiao to respond, Bai Qi continued, ”If Mu Yunzhu wants to break the engagement with me, then he and I will have nothing to do with each other anymore. Can you and he receive Uncle Mu's blessing, and whether or not you're together or separated, that's none of my business. What right do you have to ask me to help you?”

”Why should I!? Humph! Just based on this! ” Before Bai Qi could react, Shen Xiaoxiao slammed her stomach into the corner of the coffee table. Following the huge impact, she clutched her stomach and fell down with a pale face.

The people in the coffee shop didn't know the truth. When they heard the voice and turned around, they only saw Bai Qi sitting calmly on the sofa while Shen Xiao was lying on the floor moaning nonstop. Her white skirt was quickly dyed red.

The waiter and the manager in charge of the coffee shop rushed over upon hearing the news. They were at a loss as to what to do in the face of such a scene. They did not know how to react.

”Why don't you call an ambulance as soon as possible?” Bai Qi shook his head, reminding the flustered manager of the situation. He picked up his bag, stood up, and walked to Shen Xiao's side. Bending down, he whispered into her ear.

You want to scheme against me?” Shen Xiao, why don't you turn around and see who's standing behind you? He has seen everything that just happened. Also, if you look up again, we have surveillance on the ceiling and every move of ours is very clear. Do you think you can succeed this time around?

Shen Xiao had been in so much pain that she almost fainted, but after hearing Bai Qi's words, she bit her lips and looked in the direction he had said. Seeing Mu Yunzhu standing there with a cold expression, she immediately sobered up. How come he's here? How long has he been here? Did he really see everything?

Resisting the pain in her stomach, Shen Xiao struggled to get up, wanting to grab hold of Mu Yunzhu's explanation. She knew that this wasn't the right time to explain, but if she didn't, she was afraid she wouldn't have the chance to.

Mu Yunzhu allowed Shen Xiaoxiao's bloodied hands to grab the bottom of his pants as she powerlessly said, ”Yunzhu, Yunzhu, listen to my explanation.”

Mu Yunzhu stared blankly at Shen Xiao at his feet before raising his head to look at the still elegant Bai Qi, only to feel waves of dull pain in his head.

”Yun Zhu, listen to me, I didn't do it on purpose, I didn't intentionally knock out our child, I just want to be with you, as long as I can be with you, I'm willing to pay any price.”

”Is that so? The price included sleeping in another man's bed and having another man's child? and then let me be a cheap father to your child? ” Mu Yunzhu didn't want to speak of such a private matter in public, but when he heard that Shen Xiao was still acting in the name of love, he couldn't control his own mouth any longer.
