Love So Sweet

Chapter 323

323 Reddened Eyes

After discussing with the lawyer for a long time, the four of them finally left the building.

Wei Jun Hao patted Bai Qi on his shoulder and told him not to worry about anything as his friend will help him with the matters.

“The two of us still have a few places we have to go,” Zhang Yu Ying spoke. “Li Xue, Bai Qi, where are you going next? Should we give you a lift?”

Zhang Li Xue turned to Bai Qi and let him decide.

“Aunt, it’s fine. The two of us will take a walk for a while.” Bai Qi smiled. “The public transport in this city is quite convenient. You don’t have to worry about us.”

“Alright. Then, your uncle and I will leave now. If you need anything, just call us.” Zhang Yu Ying knew that Bai Qi might need some time to digest what he had learned today. “Bai Qi, you... don’t worry too much. Everything will be fine. Your uncle and I will help you with what we can.”

“Mmm... Thank you, aunt.”

Zhang Yu Ying turned to her niece and shot her a look, reminding her to look after Bai Qi. She was worried that Bai Qi would be too sad. Fortunately, her niece was around to comfort him.

After a brief exchange, Zhang Yu Ying followed her husband and the two of them left together.

.....

Zhang Yu Ying watched as her husband drove away and heaved a heavy sigh. “Bai Qi is quite pitiful. Who would expect that the truth would be like that?”

No one expected that the company had gotten into trouble because of someone.

“Fortunately, Bai Qi agreed to pursue this matter,” Wei Jun Hai spoke. “To tell you the truth, I would be disappointed if he wanted to let Wen Shang go. According to the information we have, Wen Shang is not a good person.”

“Hubby you have to help him.”

Wei Jun Hao smiled. “Mmm... I know. I already promised you that I will help him. My friend will help to collect the evidence and bring him to justice.”

Bai Qi and Zhang Li Xue watched the vehicle until it was no longer within their sight.

After a while, Bai Qi turned to his girlfriend and offered his hand. “Should we go as well?”

Zhang Li Xue placed her hand into Bai Qi’s and gave him an inquiring look. “Where are we going?”

“Let’s just walk around the park first.” He pointed at the small park nearby the lawyer’s office. “Later, we’ll find a place to have a meal, alright?”

Zhang Li Xue naturally did not have any objection. She would follow Bai Qi wherever he wanted to go.

Holding hands, Bai Qi turned into the corner and led his girlfriend to the small park around the lawyer’s office. The two of them walked slowly while enjoying the surroundings.

After walking for a distance, Zhang Li Xue stopped on her step and looked at Bai Qi in worry. “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine.” A chuckle escaped him when he saw that his girlfriend was doubting his words. “Really.”

Her eyes were scrutinizing him. Without saying a word, Zhang Li Xue leaned over and wrapped her arms around Bai Qi. Her chin rested on his shoulder. Her hands were patting him on his back as she silently coaxed him.

Zhang Li Xue was doubting that Bai Qi was really alright.

She did not remember Bai Qi’s parents. But, his father was too pitiful.

After listening to such a story, she had the urge to beat that friend. Just what kind of person would betray his own friend and pushed him to die? He does not deserve to be called a friend at all.

Zhang Li Xue hoped that this person would be punished by law.

Thinking that Bai Qi probably wanted to organize his thought, Zhang Li Xue decided not to probe into this matter. Zhang Li Xue trusted that Bai Qi would tell her what was on his mind when he was ready.

She did not know what she could do for Bai Qi. Other than giving him a silent encouragement like this, there was nothing else she could do.

Bai Qi was surprised by her action.

A few seconds later, his lips gradually turned to a faint smile.

How can he not understand Zhang Li Xue’s intention? His girlfriend could sense that he was feeling sad and now, she was silently comforting him.

Bai Qi held Zhang Li Xue tightly. He put his head on her shoulder and lowered his gaze. At a place where his girlfriend could not see his face, his eyes turned red a little bit.

He was sad as he thought about his father.

He could not help but wonder if he had paid a little more attention to his father, perhaps, that man would still be alive. Then, his mother would not be so sad that she died after giving birth to his little sister.

But, Bai Qi understood that there was nothing he could change. Everything was in the past and he can only look at the future.

The only thing he can do is to bring that person to justice and help his father to restore his reputation.

The couple hugged in the park for a long time.

A few passersby were watching them, but the two of them ignored their inquiring eyes.

As long as Bai Qi was holding her tightly, Zhang Li Xue did not want to let him go. Her instinct told her that her boyfriend needed this long hug.

After a long time, Bai Qi finally loosened up his hug. He took a step back and held Zhang Li Xue’s arms, supporting her. Then, he leaned closer to kiss her on the forehead. His lips pressed on her skin for a few seconds longer. He did not know just how glad he was that his girlfriend was with him.

“Thank you.” Bai Qi rubbed her head. “I’m fine now.”

Zhang Li Xue could notice his slightly reddened eyes, but she did not say anything.

“Are you hungry? I’ll bring you to eat something good, alright?”
