Chapter 835: Chapter 835: The Woman Who Was Thrown Out Five Years Ago (1)

Huang Yiyi’s face turned crimson, and her hands clutching her purse nearly turned white from the pressure; she felt as if all the men and women around her were mocking her lack of shame, and that faint gaze made her want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"Brat, what nonsense are you spouting?" Father Bai was quite helpless with his son, only able to stare wide-eyed, giving him a light but stern warning.

Since childhood, Bai Yiming’s thick skin had endured countless hits from Old Master Bai’s dragon head cane, so how could he possibly be afraid of an innocuous glare from Father Bai? He curled his lips into a devilish smile and lazily shrugged his shoulders, "Dad, just consoling a friend, where did your mind go?"

"You..." Father Bai choked up, staring with wide eyes, unsure of what to say.

"Uncle Bai, it’s fine. Young Master Bai is truly sincere," An Yiqing, who had been watching the show, said with a smile to relieve Father Bai.

Father Bai sighed, his face apologetic, "Ai, his mother spoiled him rotten from a young age, he’s always been unreliable. Xiao Qing and Lao San, don’t take it to heart."

As a father who knows his own child, how could Father Bai not understand Bai Yiming’s thoughts? An Yiqing indeed would have been a daughter-in-law to his liking, but alas, the delicate flower already belonged to another. He couldn’t possibly incite Bai Yiming to put his good friend on the spot, could he?

"Uncle Bai, you go ahead, Ah Lin and I will head inside."

Father Bai nodded repeatedly, urging Bai Yiming to take good care of the two guests.

"I say, little girl, ever since you came to my house, you make me feel as if I was picked up from a trash pile!" Bai Yiming joked as he escorted An Yiqing.

"Look at you talking, obviously, you are the biological child of Uncle and Auntie, otherwise, they would have thrown you back a long time ago," An Yiqing retorted sharply with a not-so-warm smile.

Bai Yiming choked on his retort, feeling a rush of frustration as he rolled his eyes. He turned his head and glared fiercely at Gu Yelin, who remained silent, muttering, "Show me your friends and I’ll show you your future! A good girl, led astray by you!"

Gu Yelin said nothing, merely giving him a fleeting glance filled with disdain.

An Yiqing left the two men exchanging looks and moved gracefully to where An Zhihang and An Zhiyan stood. At that moment, the An Family brothers were smiling as they listened to idle chatter in their circle.

"Big brother, second brother!"

An Zhihang and An Zhiyan quickly turned, their faces lighting up with joy upon seeing An Yiqing smiling before them.

"Little sister, did you get here so quickly? Are mom and dad and grandma and grandpa here yet? Did you see them?"

"Um, they probably haven’t arrived yet," An Yiqing gently shook her head, casually scanning the surroundings and whispering, "There are so many guests today. I heard Bai Yiming say that Old Master Bai wanted to keep it low-key. What changed to make it so grand?"

"Hey, isn’t that the truth?" An Zhihang nodded to an acquaintance in the distance and whispered to An Yiqing, "Originally, Old Master Bai did want it to be low-key, but there were some issues along the way."

"Issues? What issues?" An Yiqing asked, her brows furrowing slightly in confusion.

An Zhiyan, who had been quietly standing by, suddenly gave An Yiqing a peculiar look, "Little sister, how have you been so busy lately? You don’t even know such big news?"

"Um... Lately, Yuyuanzhai and Xuanjin Pharmaceuticals have indeed been busy. What exactly happened?" An Yiqing grew more puzzled as she listened.

"It’s like this," An Zhihang greeted a friend, then pulled An Yiqing to the side and explained in a low voice, "Originally, Old Master Bai indeed wanted a low-key celebration, just meaning for a few close friends and relatives. But a few days ago, the lady from the Guh Family returned." After saying this, An Zhihang still wasn’t reassured and gave An Yiqing another look, leaving her all the more baffled.
