Bai Yi took the herbal tea handed to him by the servant first, drank it in one gulp, and tried hard to calm the inexplicable anger in his heart.

Then he said leisurely: "I'm not angry, I'm fine."

Liu Yingzhen: "..."

Okay, I asked unnecessary questions.

So she changed the subject: "Since Shiyu has gone abroad, the one in Yiyuan can be released. Isn't your goal to let Ning Yuechen deeply experience the suffering of the world? Now you are taking care of him so attentively, I really don't understand it."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Bai Yi's face was a little complicated. While she was wondering, she heard him say, "I didn't take good care of her. She can still enjoy such a life now because Shi Yu spent all his wealth to buy it. I just kept my promise."

Liu Yingzhen didn't think much about it. After all, Shi Yu did use the last few well-developed industries in her hands to exchange for Ning Yuechen's peace and prosperity for the rest of his life.

Because she was well aware of Bai Yi's ambition and ruthlessness, she knew that even if these assets were given to Ning Yuechen, with Bai Yi's methods, she might not be able to enjoy the blessing.

Instead of this, it would be better to let Ning Yuechen leave alone, and then use these capitals to make a final deal with Bai Yi.

From then on, Ning Yuechen had no relationship with the Bai family anymore, and she didn't owe Bai Yi anything.

Thinking of this, Liu Yingzhen continued, "It's almost the day for new students to register. You can't stop her from going to college. After all, she worked so hard to get into Huazhong University just to see the person she's been thinking about day and night."

Bai Yi looked at her: "How did you know?"

"It's obvious. Ning Yuechen didn't have any bad intentions towards you and he really wanted to save you. But because of a message from that girl, he threw your life out of his mind. If this isn't love, what is it?"

Bai Yi's brows sank slightly.

Then I heard my friend say, "Oh, by the way, last time in the basement, when you checked her mobile chat history, I also took a look. So I guessed that the reason why Ning Yuechen stayed in City B was also for that girl. Otherwise, Shi Yu would have sent her abroad long ago, and she wouldn't have ended up like this."

Liu Yingzhen said with emotion: "As expected, love is something that can ruin your life once you touch it."

Bai Yi's expression darkened even more, and he said, "You are too gossipy."

“If you don’t gossip, how can you guess that Ning Yuechen was framed by your good cousin, and not really wanting to harm you?”

Liu Yingzhen sat down on the sofa, enjoying the cool air in the room, and asked, "Did you really think Ning Yuechen wanted to harm you? Or did you deliberately join in in order to force Shi Yu to go abroad and completely drive Ning Yuechen out of the Bai family?"

Bai Yi didn't say anything, but Liu Yingzhen understood instantly.

I can't help but say: "Bai Yi, with your scheming and intelligence, it's a pity that you were not born in ancient times and entered the palace as a concubine."

Bai Yi sat down opposite her and said, "I was really unsure at the time, but no matter whether she was innocent or not, I wanted to maximize my own interests. That's all."

She changed the subject and said with an attitude of looking down on everything: "Even if I was born in ancient times, I could be a god admired by everyone, or an emperor who rules the world, or a businessman who is richest in the world. Why do I have to become a resentful woman in the deep palace?"

Liu Yingzhen sneered: "But fate is something that sometimes really depends on luck. So if you put yourself in Ning Yuechen's shoes, you can also call him a pitiful person."

"After all, everything that happened today, the root cause is your father."

Ever since Bai Yi sent Bai Jingyuan, who had been strong for most of his life, abroad, Liu Yingzhen understood clearly the ruthlessness and determination of his good friend.

So now when I say this, I don’t have any worries.

Bai Yi said indifferently: "So what? Since things have come to this point, she has no ability to change her fate. She can only choose to accept it."

Seeing her cold and indifferent expression, Liu Yingzhen sighed, "I originally thought that you had compassion for her by arranging her in the most comfortable and luxurious Yiyuan in the winery and taking good care of her three meals a day. I didn't expect that you were still so calculating."

"I said, this is keeping a promise."

"Okay, okay~"

A week later, Ning Yuechen, who had been locked up in the winery for two months, was about to start school, but Bai Yi had no intention of letting her go. She was completely panicked.

After refusing to take medicine and eat again, Bai Yi finally showed up.

"I want to go out!" Ning Yuechen said directly.

Bai Yi rubbed her aching temples. She had been busy with the group's automotive research and development project recently and had held meetings for several consecutive days. She rushed home from Shanghai in the middle of the night yesterday and was blocked at the door of her room by Bai Songan early in the morning.

"Yiyi, you've gotten what you wanted, and you've vented all the grievances you've suffered over the years. Mom and Youchen, they owe you what they should repay, and now everything is as you wish. Next week is the day for freshmen to register at the university, and you must let Youchen go to school."

Bai Yi looked tired: "Brother, you came to me early in the morning just to talk about this?"

Bai Songan frowned, his expression even more serious: "This matter is very important! I want to see Yue Chen and send her to school! If you don't want her to return to the Bai family, I won't let her appear in front of you again. From now on, I will be responsible for this child's life."

As soon as he finished speaking, he could clearly sense that Bai Yi, who had originally looked lazy, had a stern look in her eyes. Then she said, "Brother, don't you think you care too much about Ning Yuechen? She is not your biological sister."

"So what? Family affection doesn't only come from blood ties. I watched Yue Chen grow up, too. In my heart, she is the same as you. As a brother, I naturally have to care for her and love her."

The sleepiness in Bai Yi's eyes completely disappeared, and he stared at Bai Songan with burning eyes. He saw that his expression was natural, and there was a righteous determination in his eyes.

Then he said, "Brother, you'd better just treat her as your biological sister and not have any other thoughts."

Bai Songan's eyebrows flashed with doubt: "What are you thinking? Do you think I will use You Chen as a bargaining chip to exchange for benefits like you did?"

His face flushed as he spoke, his tone even more indignant: "Who do you think I am? Or do you think I am playing dumb? Hiding my true colors? Have you read too many novels and think everyone is a scheming strategist? I'm telling you clearly now that I love my career and I will dedicate my whole life to the country's scientific research. If you think my existence is a threat to you, then you can kick me out of the Bai family!"

Bai Yi suddenly had a headache and said, "I never read that kind of novel. I never miss you that much either."

Bai Songan didn't listen at all. He was full of grievances. He had always been clear in his conscience, but now he was questioned by his own sister. How could he not feel disheartened?

So he continued, "What do you mean by that? I treat Yue Chen as my own sister, but you speculate about me like that. How can I not be angry? I, Bai Songan, am a clean person and I do things openly and honestly. I will never play tricks behind people's backs, and I will never take advantage of my relatives. You can rest assured about this."
