"What do you mean inappropriate?" he asked directly.

He had already changed his words and called Murong Xiang "Dad", which meant he admitted that he was the son-in-law of the Murong family. How many people dreamed of marrying into the Ji Group? Moreover, it was not Murong Xiang who came to him, but he took the initiative to show goodwill to the Murong family!

What more?

Bai Yunxi covered her face with her hands, knowing that there was something wrong with what she said just now. She sighed, adjusted her thoughts and emotions, and then said faintly: "You are so openly helping the Murong family and me, aren't you afraid that your mother will be unhappy?"

She has not forgotten how she was kicked out of the Ji family!

She also hadn't forgotten how much Ji Hanmo's mother looked down on her in the past!

That kind of contemptuous attitude, harsh words, any one of them is enough to leave a lasting impression on a person!

Although the Murong family is a cultural family with deep cultural heritage, such illusory things are not worth mentioning under the impact of modern money-first values.

The old view that "among all other things, only education is superior" has now been replaced by the value of "whoever has money is right".

So even though she is now the daughter of the Murong family, his mother may not necessarily accept her, and the fact that he has extended a helping hand to the Murong family may instead become another crime against her in front of his mother.

Ji Hanmo looked at her with heartache. It seemed that that incident had really hurt and dealt her a great blow!

"I'm scared." He said seriously.

Bai Yunxi looked at him.

If he said he was not afraid, she could sneer at him, because that night when his mother wanted to kick her out of the Ji family, he had almost no ability to compete with his mother.

It's not that he really doesn't have that strength, but because he has great power, so in front of his dearest and most beloved people, he has to restrain his tyrannical strength. Because the more powerful a person is, the more his great power must be used to fight against the enemy and protect the people around him.

Ji Hanmo is such a person. He is extremely powerful in front of outsiders, but in front of his mother, he is just an ordinary and filial son.

He can sweep across the world and ignore everyone, but he cannot disobey his mother.

Even if his mother wanted to kick the person he loved most out of the house...

He said so directly that he was afraid that she didn't know what to say.

Ji Hanmo continued, "You can't imagine how much impact the car accident had on my family. A thriving business empire almost collapsed. My grandmother was already old, but she had to rebuild the business my father left behind bit by bit. I also grew up from an ignorant rich second generation to the decisive and ruthless president of Ji Group."

"We all managed to get through the pain, but my mother was seriously injured in the car accident and has not been able to get over it yet. Every scar on her body and even every sound she makes are constant reminders of her tragic past. I know exactly how painful her life is every day, but I can't replace her."

He took a deep breath and looked at Bai Yunxi's belly with a loving gaze: "If she hadn't pushed me out of the car, she might have escaped. But she didn't. She is just like you, a mother who will definitely protect her child at the critical moment. And as the child she tried so hard to save at such a painful price, there is actually not much I can do for her. Apart from spending money to send her to treatment, I can only try my best to obey her so that she can suffer less."

Bai Yunxi listened silently and subconsciously stroked her belly. She secretly thought that if she was the one in the car accident, she would probably do the same and save her child first without hesitation.

"So I can't do anything that goes against her or makes her unhappy. Because that would increase her pain, and she wouldn't be able to concentrate on her treatment. But Yunxi, I'm also afraid of hurting you, ignoring me, and resenting me."

Ji Hanmo's voice was very suppressed. It was not just Bai Yunxi who had been suffering from depression and torment during this period.

The business emperor, who had always been high and mighty, put all his energy into expanding Ji's business empire after experiencing pain.

He is cold, ruthless, and has every plan in mind. Because he doesn't act on his emotions, he will never be bound by them.

I thought it would be impossible for me to fall in love with any woman again, but I didn't know when I lost my heart.

It’s because of the woman in front of him named Bai Yunxi.

Indeed, in terms of family background and ability, she is not as good as Han Ying; in terms of beauty and sophistication, she is not even as good as Song Feier.

But his heart was inexplicably tied to this seemingly ordinary woman, and he could never break free!

I don't know where the love comes from, but it is ever-lasting. Is this what it means?

The most important thing is that Bai Yunxi didn't fight for anything from the beginning.

Faced with Han Ying's provocation and his mother's blame, she chose to give in.

If she cries and makes a fuss when he is in the most difficult situation, or even threatens him with the baby in her belly, he will be so overwhelmed that he may become annoyed or even hate her.

But she didn't.

Faced with the high pressure from his mother, she chose to give in directly without making it difficult for him in the slightest. While leaving room for him, she also bought him a lot of precious time.

The more sensible she was, the more he loved her and the more guilty he felt towards her.

On the contrary, Han Ying kept pestering him and often persuaded his mother to put pressure on him, which only made him feel more and more disgusted and distanced himself from her.

He had to obey his mother and let Han Ying stay with him, but she took this opportunity to become more and more demanding and even dared to show off in front of Bai Yunxi?

Haha, do you really think that Ji Hanmo is so easily coerced?

Bai Yunxi looked at him.

He has been in the news a lot during this period, and every time he is seen together with Han Ying. However, although he looked so glorious in front of people, he looks much more haggard than before and has lost a lot of weight.

The man who was once so arrogant explained to her in such a humble manner that it was a lie that she didn't feel distressed or loose.

What's more, he really helped the Murong family and saved her today.

but……

She lowered her head and said nothing.

"In order to let my mother receive treatment with peace of mind, I had to obey her and let Han Ying stay with me. Yunxi, I know this is very unfair to you. But don't worry, my mother only has one last surgery, and my grandmother has agreed to take her back to City A for recuperation. As soon as this treatment is over, I will take you back to the Ji family, and I will never have anything to do with Han Ying again!"
