Chapter 1537 Fang Ziqian Didn't Come!
by the window, bai shixun was dressed in a pure white three-piece suit with a light blue shirt. he stood tall and looked like a prince with an elegant aura.
he smiled at luo chenxi and raised his hand to point behind him. " i'm not the only one who's here. my grandfather is here too. " the banquet today is a big event for the upper-class circle in china. not many people have the confidence to leave just like you, and even the president has to personally ask you to stay."
luo chenxi blushed a little when she heard his teasing tone. she glared at him before she walked straight to master bai's side to greet him.
master bai came in a wheelchair today.
ever since he suddenly found out that bai shixun had gone missing, he had suffered a stroke in shock and anger. he had not fully recovered until now, and had just been discharged from the hospital last week.
among the few rich and powerful elders that luo chenxi had come into contact with, master bai was the one who treated her the best.
luo chenxi and mu yichen inquired about old master bai's condition with great concern. they chatted with him for quite a while.
master bai looked at the golden couple in front of him and kept nodding. he couldn't help but feel envious.
"yichen is the best among you kids! not only did he have a wife, but his daughter was already so big. shixun, you'd better learn from her. don't hang out with those indecent women all day. you're already twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, it's time for you to find a wife."
mu yichen smirked smugly when he sensed bai shixun's resentful gaze.
it was useless for his brothers to be jealous of him. after all, not every man had such good taste.
however, luo chenxi's expression changed ever so slightly.
she finally realized why she felt that something was wrong when she saw bai shixun.
that was because ... fang ziqian wasn't there today!
it was true that fang ziqian was only dating bai shixun and was not the daughter-in-law of the bai family yet. it was normal for her to not be invited. however, elder bai's words made her feel very uncomfortable.
judging from his tone, it seemed as if he did not know that bai shixun already had a stable girlfriend. he even thought that the woman with him was a dubious woman!
was it because bai shixun had not told master bai about fang ziqian, or was it because master bai did not like fang ziqian and was ready to break up the couple?
luo chenxi frowned and turned to look at bai shixun.
bai shixun hurriedly made a few hand gestures to her, asking her to keep quiet.
luo chenxi was filled with suspicion, but she did not say anything.
after she was done chatting with master bai, she pulled her husband and forced bai shixun into a corner to interrogate him.
"where's little qianqian? what's going on between you and her? why didn't master bai know about you? don't tell me that you're just playing with my little qianqian and that you don't have any plans to marry her!"
bai shixun's face was bitter. " sister-in-law, you ... you've misunderstood. you've really misunderstood. it's not my fault. it's ... it's qianqian herself who didn't want me to tell anyone. she insisted on having an underground relationship with me and pretended not to know me in the company. i even had to report to her when i kissed her. i ... i'm the one who's miserable! sister-in-law, i'm the one you should pity!"
luo chenxi was stunned for a moment. " what do you mean? little qianqian doesn't want to announce their relationship to the public?"
