Not only that, even the helpers at the mansion laughed at Bai Qinghao for having a poor taste and for taking a liking to her.
She had truly erected her own gravestone.
This time, she would not only avoid the mistakes she made in her previous life but would also do her best to gain the Bai family’s liking.
The two of them sat in a Rolls-Royce. The driver was Bai Qinghao’s chauffeur, Li Bingpan.
Fang Xinxin glanced at Li Bingpan from the backseat.
He had once been bribed by Fang Manxue. Now that Fang Manxue was sentenced to lifetime imprisonment, she wondered about his thoughts.
That night when Fang Manxue had schemed against her at the Dan Feng Bai Lu Hotel, Li Bingpan had informed her that Bai Qinghao would arrive home a day earlier from his business trip.
Speaking of which, he had yet to deal with this disloyal thing.
She had stopped Bai Qinghao and told him not to be hasty about this.
This was because they had yet to find the person who tried to secretly murder Bai Qinghao more than a year ago.
That person must be aware that Bai Qinghao was investigating him. Since then, he did not reappear again.
If Li Bingpan could be bribed once, he would definitely be bribed again. The only difference was that his employer would be different this time around.
All they had to do was to see if that person would target him.
The Rolls-Royce drove into an enormous and luxurious Chinese-style manor. There were various stunning and expensive flowers planted on both sides of the road.
As the car came to a stop, a helper immediately opened the car door respectfully.
Bai Qinghao alighted the car with Fang Xinxin.
A row of helpers were waiting respectfully. They immediately bowed and greeted them in unison. “Welcome, Young Master and Miss Fang!”
In their previous life, they had not been greeted this warmly. She turned to him in confusion. “Bai Qinghao?”
“This way, you’ll know with certainty that the Bai family always values you.” He did not have much expression on his cold and stern face.
Nonetheless, she keenly felt his love. She smiled slightly.
She scanned the surroundings. The Bai family’s old mansion’s front yard was decorated with a modern, Chinese-style approach. There were beautiful flora and fauna, accompanied with a rock garden. A gentle stream flowed through the rocks to fall into an enormous manmade lake. It made for a stunning sight.
The Chinese-style buildings were decorated with carefully crafted tiles. Every single tile appeared unique and stunning. The overall image it left was imposing!
With one glance, it was clear that the owner of this home was especially noble and out of the ordinary.
Bai Qinghao brought Fang Xinxin through the front yard. Due to his stern disposition, he did not introduce her to the Bai family’s mansion’s design and sights.
This was of no significance. She had been husband and wife with him for more than ten years, and had also spent quite some time living here. She was extremely comfortable with this place.
However, as everyone believed this was her first visit, she took care not to appear too familiar.
The two of them approached a pavilion and sat down on the stone seats. A helper immediately brought a platter of fruits and desserts forward. She placed it down on the stone table.
“I have to leave for a while.” Bai Qinghao caressed Fang Xinxin’s hair gently. His voice was warm. “Wait here for me obediently.”
“En.” She nodded slightly and watched as he left.
In her previous life, the same thing had happened.
Although he returned within ten minutes, in the short time he was away, she met Bai Jingrou. Under Bai Jingrou ill-intended guidance, she misrecognized the Bai family’s butler to be the Bai family’s elder and addressed a butler as ‘Grandfather’.
What made this worse was that Bai Qinghao, along with his parents and Elder Bai, had come there right at this moment and witnessed her humiliation.
She was thoroughly mortified and believed Bai Qinghao had left intentionally to embarrass her.
She had hated him to death at that moment and lost control. She had ended up insulting Grandfather Bai as an old peasant.
With a few words, she had offended the entire Bai family.
