Chapter 1182: Ruan Xin Was Afraid
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The three of them had grown up together. Ever since they were babies, they had been fighting over a toy.
If the children in the other courtyards dared to bully Xiao Lin, Bai Zhun and Hai Lou would be the first to refuse.
Xiao Lin still remembered that year when Hai Lou fell into the water.
He was so scared that his hands and feet went numb. All the children around him had run away, but Bai Zhun refused to leave. He said that he would save Hai Lou no matter what. In the end, he had a fever for two whole days.
The first thing Bai Zhun did when he opened his eyes was to make sure that he and Hai Lou were okay.
At that moment, Xiao Lin was certain that these two people were his brothers for life.
Moreover, the feeling of being remembered like this was always good.
Xiao Lin lowered his eyes and rotated the bamboo pen in his hand. He could not hide his happiness.
The three old men watched from outside. They were filled with gratification.
What could make them happier than the harmony between their grandchildren.
In the future, the children had a long way to go. Only by helping each other would they be at ease.
Among them, Master Li was the most careless. Compared to the other two, he was not only short, but also confused the whole time. When that time came, how could he join the army?
Old Master Li gritted his teeth and turned his head to ask, “Chief Bai, when do you plan to send Bai Zhun to the army?”
“We’ll talk about it after he graduates from high school.” Chief Bai lowered his voice and signaled for them to go downstairs. Ajiu was still young, and who would take care of her if Bai Zhun left? Although it was a little late to join the army at 18, Bai Zhun should be able to keep up.
Old Master Li nodded. “That works too. The main thing is to make arrangement for Bai Zhun while we are still in place.”
“Don’t worry, Can’t you see that Bai Zhun has strong leaders.h.i.+p skills?” Old Master Xiao stroked his beard and said, “These three children are sensible. Hai Lou may be a little naughty, but he knows in his heart that our Xiao Lin is also a taciturn person. Sometimes, I don’t even know what his grandson is thinking. Let’s see what they want to do and what kind of homework they are doing.”
Vice commander Zhang stood at the side and listened to the conversation among the three big shots. If others heard what they said, they would definitely be shocked.
This was because it was obvious that this meant that they were appointing an heir.
The Bai Family only had one young master.
On the other hand, the Xiao Family was different from the Li Family. They had three sons, not to mention their future grandchildren.
However, these two had already decided on the successor. In other words, each of the three children upstairs would be extraordinary in the future.
Vice commander Zhang raised his head and looked upstairs, trying to calm himself down.
However, Ruan Xin and her daughter were still waiting for Bai Zhun to submit.
Ruan Xin first took Yan Qin to go shopping, then she took her to the recording studio. She was as happy as she could be.
She was confident that when she returned home, she would receive an apology letter from the Bai Family.
Ruan Xin’s husband, Yan Zhengguo, was originally busy at the office. He did not expect to see people from the Bai Family.
Just as he was about to go up to greet them, the other party raised a hand to stop him. He was dressed in military uniform. “Director Yan, our old man wants you to listen to this.”
As he spoke, the person opened the recording on his phone.
The more Yan Zhengguo listened to the voice, the paler his face became. In the end, there was no color left on his lips. He hurriedly said, “Adjutant, is there any misunderstanding?”
“Chief Bai personally answered the phone. It is very clear in the recording that the rude girl mentioned by the n.o.ble madam was the daughter of the Bai Family. The boy that your daughter wants is young master Bai Zhun. Director Yan has met him before. This recording was sent by young master Bai Zhun. Young master has a copy. I don’t know who he will send it to. Director Yan, keep this copy and listen to it well…”
Yan Zhengguo’s hands were shaking so much that he could not hold the phone in his hands. There was a surge of anger in his chest as well as an unspeakable fear.
If he were to hand in such a recording, even if the Bai family was not around, he would definitely be punished.
Why did his wife have to offend the Bai Family!
Yan Zhengguo was furious. He did not care about having dinner with the other leaders at night. His tone was very harsh as he called Ruan Xin. “Where are you? Tell me immediately!”
Ruan Xin was stunned. “Where did you take the medicine? Why are you so angry?”
“I told you to tell me where you are!”
Ruan Xin listened to Yan Zhengguo’s roar on the other end of the phone. Her heart was beating fast. After she told him where she was, she immediately asked her a.s.sistant to hurry home.
Yan Qin hadn’t had enough fun yet. “Mom, didn’t you say that we would eat outside today?”
“Your father is getting angry. I don’t know why, but let’s go home first.”
Ruan Xin was getting anxious. All these years, she had controlled Yan Zhengguo’s temper well. Yan Zhengguo had never gotten angry with her like he did today.
What was going on?
Ruan Xin was in the entertainment industry after all. Her sense of smell was always sharper than the average person’s. Her intuition told her that something had happened.
However, she did not know what had gone wrong, so she could only wait anxiously at home.
The moment Yan Zhengguo saw Ruan Xin, he threw the phone fiercely at her face. “Listen to yourself, listen to yourself!”
Ruan Xin was still smiling. Yan Qin was sitting next to her mother. She was already a junior high school student, so of course, she had her own thoughts. “Dad, what are you doing to my mother?”
“Shut up!” Yan Zhengguo turned around. “I haven’t said anything about you yet. Who taught you to fall for boys? You even threatened him that as long as he was your boyfriend, you would forgive his sister ? is that how I usually teach you! The Yan family has been disgraced by you and your mother!”
“I just like Bai Zhun, is that wrong?!” Yan Qin roared. “What’s wrong if I have fallen for him? I really like him!”
Yan Zhengguo’s daughter’s tone made him feel dizzy. “Does he like you too? He has already rejected you so obviously, yet you’re still trying to push yourself up. If that’s not being a pushover, then what is? You’re even trying to find trouble with his sister. Do you know what kind of people you’re provoking?!”
“Isn’t it the Bai Family? I know that they are very rich.” Ruan Xin pulled her daughter away and softened her tone. “So what if he’s rich? It’s not like our family is poor.”
Yan Zhengguo was so angry that his teeth hurt. “You want to compare your connections with the Bai Family? Is there something wrong with your brain?! That is not an ordinary rich family, that is the Bai Family with a very good background! Do you know how many soldiers Chief Bai has? Why are you still competing here?!”
“Is that so?” Ruan Xin was shocked and took a step back. She had put in a lot of effort to enter this circle back then. Naturally, she knew that the strongest people in this circle were people with the Bai Family’s background. These people were not individuals that the Yan family could afford to provoke!
