Chapter 653: Kicking Fu Wan Out (2)
"Shen Zhen told me that I am close to giving birth." Bai Meiyue began speaking; her expression turned solemn as she moved her head to the left and glanced at the man standing next to her. "Lei Qian, tell me... if something happens to me when I am giving birth, who will you protect? The child or me?"
"Of course you—"
"No!" Bai Meiyue shook her head. She clenched his hand so tightly that Lei Qian furrowed lightly. "If something happens to me, then you will have to protect our son. No matter what happens, no matter what you hear—run to our son, understand? I am not weak; I can protect myself. I will do that always. So no matter what, no matter where, if our son and I are in trouble, then you need to protect him always. Do you understand? Can you promise me this?"
Lei Qian stared at the woman in front of him. He didn’t agree or disagree, but when he saw the glint in her eyes, he knew that this meant something to her. He pursed his lips and said to Bai Meiyue, "Fine, I will protect our son. I will never let anyone harm him."
Bai Meiyue breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing the puzzled look on his face, she didn’t explain too much because she knew that Lei Qian would not be able to understand anything that she had gone through in her past life. Maybe he would think that she was taking one of her nightmares seriously. Holding his hand in hers, she returned to the mansion.
By the time they returned to the mansion, it was already lunchtime. Mother Bai had cooked fish soup for Bai Meiyue while the rest enjoyed sashimi for their lunch; of course, the meal was satisfactory for the rest. And Bai Meiyue could only stare at them, enjoying the raw fish and could only sob silently, her eyes turning red with envy. A few more months—she would definitely enjoy her sashimi then.
Once they finished their lunch, Bai Jixuan went to deliver the foolish thieves to Fox and the supplies to Bai Feng. Of course, as soon as he went to the mansion where Fu Wan lived, chaos soon erupted.
"What do you mean that you are bringing me back to Fox?" Fu Wan locked herself in her room and shouted through the door. When she heard that Bai Jixuan was here to take her back to the safe area where Fox was trapped, she ran back to her room and locked herself up. Whenever Bai Meiyue told her that she was going to send her away, she thought that the woman was only threatening her. She never thought that she would really do it!
Fu Wan stared at the door and raised the cloth hanger that she had found herself as a weapon. Like she could use it to defend against Bai Jixuan if he wanted to drag her out of the house.
Bai Jixuan stared at the closed door and coldly said, "My sister said that since you have so many problems while staying here, you can go back to where you came from. We have already arranged for a helicopter."
Fu Wan’s mouth dropped open. She said, "Fox gave you—"
"The crystal nuclei were only for a week. You have overstayed your stay." Bai Jixuan was calm even when the woman was screeching at him like a hornbill.
"Then my child—"
"We will hand you the child along with the incubator; you can take him along with you."
Fu Wan was stumped. She thought that these people would at least show some mercy to her because of her child, but she never thought that they would leave the child in her care. If she took the child away, then wouldn’t she have to breastfeed the baby? Was she a cow?
Even Xiao Chenye was shocked by the sudden eviction. He said to Bai Jixuan, "Brother Jixuan, we just discussed this matter with Miss Bai in the morning. Why are we being treated in such a manner now? I promise that I will pay the crystal nuclei that we owe you and Miss Bai."
Bai Jixuan shook his head. He said to the man, "We don’t care about the crystal nuclei. Fox did something that he shouldn’t have done, which is why we are sending not only you but every survivor that he brought here."
"What did he do?"
"He tried to steal the formula for our soil."
Xiao Chenye : "..." FOX!!!
How many times had I told you that you shouldn’t try to make holes in the bowl you eat from!
Xiao Chenye closed his eyes and said to Bai Jixuan, "Brother Jixuan, I am sorry for what Fox has done. I really am, but please try to understand. Our lady has just given birth and cannot be moved around; we are willing to double our working hours if that is what it takes. But please don’t kick us out."
He knew that with Fu Wan’s continuous fuss, this day was going to come. But he never thought that it would come so soon.
Bai Jixuan raised a brow and said, "There is no point in begging. We already told you that if this woman makes another fuss, then we will kick you out. It was Yueyue’s kindness that she could give birth to her child peacefully, but she keeps calling my sister names all the time. Do you think we have no temper?"
Xiao Chenye smiled wryly, and finally, he could only kneel in front of Bai Jixuan and kowtow in front of him. He wasn’t begging for Fu Wan but for his young master. He knew that without Bai Meiyue and her doctors’ team, his young master was bound to die. Even the doctors in the capital were not as good as Shen Zhen when it came to newborn babies. He had seen it with his own eyes, how his young master was treated.
Even with all the fuss that Fu Wan made, the child was treated with kindness and equally like any other child. He couldn’t let his new young master be ruined by Fu Wan!
