Bai Jinxi did receive a call from the company, so she could return to work. However, she didn't come back to work, she only took that meager salary, she didn't work long, the money she took naturally wasn't much, but aside from paying the rent, she could also bring her baby to eat KFC and get him some hamburger fries that she liked to eat.

She didn't reveal the price of the land, so there was no longer any suspicion other than her. What was the purpose of his actions? Just to get revenge, he only needed to say a few words and he could easily dismiss her. There was no need for him to beat around the bush and the losses he would end up paying were all his own.

After packing up, she took the elevator down to meet Meng Yuqian. They seemed to have an affinity, but the places they frequently met seemed to be all at Jiang Lin's place, and it was because of this job that she got to know this friend of hers.

Meng Yuqian took the box in her hand: "Heavy items should not be allowed to be made by a lady. You can trouble me with that."

She smiled. "Are you here for something?"

"It's a matter of business. The people below can't represent you, so I had to make a trip myself. I didn't expect to encounter you after so much of an accident." After he casually finished his sentence, he did not talk about official matters, but more of all, he felt that there was no need. Talking business with a woman, after going through the shadow of Sen Zhimei, he did not want to see the woman beside him become a strong woman, especially the woman in front of him.

After walking out of Jiang Lin Group, which couldn't beat his request, she got into the car with him and was sent to a restaurant. Due to the matter of the baby, she hadn't eaten much in the past two days and almost had no appetite.

"You're so thin, you need to eat more to reduce the chance of you getting sick and entering the hospital." He cut a plate of steak and handed it to her. She giggled and ate half of the steak in one go. She looked up and asked, "How do you know about me?"

Meng Yuqian poured a glass of red wine and slowly sipped from it, "Isn't it easy to know about you? Who doesn't know about Bai Jinxi? Two black and bright eyes looked at him with interest. He also said seriously: "This year's Miss Hong Kong is very pretty, but if you are going to participate, I guarantee that she will be in the Ji Army."

She pursed her lips. There was clearly a smile on her face, but it was faint. He quietly looked at the man in front of him. He was dressed in a suit and looked like a coward. He didn't seem like the leader of a shopping mall that had gone through many schemings. Instead, he looked more like a sunny boy next door. After a while, he repeated, "How do you know me?"

"I asked a woman to marry me. I was rejected, so I focused on the next spring." Suddenly, her eyes lit up as she stared at Ye Ci, "I heard that you also lost your love affair. Do you have any interest in conquering Yichun?"

Lost love? What an extravagant word. She had never been in love before. At most, she would get a divorce. But what was there for a woman like her to pursue? She was still the mother of a four-year-old child, so what did he like about her? That was a problem.

Yet he still pursued her relentlessly, "You were fired by Jiang Lin? You need to raise a child, but aside from looking for a job, have you ever thought that I was actually a. "What about a very rich man?"

Rich? Maybe the money is really important, but she doesn't need it as much as she looks. Bai Jinxi shook his head: "I know all about this, but … Love and marriage, there is no emotional basis, there is only material need, that is what children crave, we are adults, we know the importance of some things. "

Meng Yuqian answered back, "I don't think we don't have any emotional bases." He leaned his elbows on the table and looked at her affirmatively, "Previously, our position was so awkward that you didn't mind dating me anymore. Now that we have no barriers, you've resigned, so our relationship has always been improved, and I have great confidence in our relationship. If it were you, I can guarantee that our marriage would have been smoother than I imagined."

Bai Jinxi touched his forehead, he was at ease, so he naturally let the topic of marriage continue, was he implying that he wanted to propose to her? She smiled wryly without a word. "Your conditions are very good — or can I be more frank and tell you that I don't want to find a stepfather for my child right now?"

He did not get angry, but made her laugh instead. "Do you think the story of Cinderella and the idol will happen between us? He needs a normal family. He needs a father when he meets his mother after school, and a father when he's at a parents' meeting. My dear, don't forget, he's a boy, and he needs a father more than his mother. "

He was right, but what about Dad? Could she have given birth alone without her father? He knew the child was his, so how could he allow it to be called a father? Oh no, even if he had, she wouldn't have been able to go back into the marriage so soon. She gritted her teeth, smiled at him, and said, "Let's eat — is it not to your liking?"

Meng Yuqian's handsome face had lost all of its deep emotions, as they revealed an apologetic look. He looked at her seriously: "I'm sorry, I thought my suggestion was to treat you well."

He wasn't the only one who felt sorry for her, he didn't feel sorry for her, at least the baby liked him, he treated her well, he even treated her and the baby well, and she thanked him from the bottom of her heart for the child's first KFC. She smiled and said, "Your suggestion is very good. It's just that it doesn't suit me. I think a suitable girl will appear."

The smile returned to his face, and he reached across the table to take her knife and fork.

She wasn't suitable, if she was suitable to be married into a rich family, she wouldn't have been reduced to her current state. Her identity, not to mention being able to marry a public figure like him, even a boy who had married a normal person would be selected as a girl. She never had the dream of a sparrow turning into a phoenix, and getting along after marriage was a much more serious challenge than being in love.

"You look so beautiful even with your brows furrowed." "Time can prove everything. You will know that I am not talking about military matters on paper, and I am not talking about sweet words. Believe me, I will not use what I did in the mall to deal with women who might spend the rest of my life with me."

He pulled back his hand, picked up his knife and fork again, and finished the rest of the beef in one gulp. Many years ago, it was her birthday. He booked the entire hotel and brought the ring to her. "Are you willing to spend the rest of your life with me?"

Her eyes were full of mirth. "I do."

It was her birthday, and it was also the day she decided to go through with her life. It turned out that the heavens would give you something precious, something that you felt was luxurious and wanted but couldn't get. At the same time, it would also make you lose something of equal value. She thought that she had achieved a lifetime of happiness, but it was also the prefix for her to fall into hell.

She couldn't resist asking, "How exactly did you know me?"

"Promise me that you won't mind or misunderstand and that I'll still be able to come and go freely with you. "I'll tell you what —"

She did not expect him to be so childish as to ask her to give him a promise. She did not know whether to laugh or cry and nodded in agreement.

"My target is Lin Xi’er —"

"Don't tell me you just bumped into someone?" She was slightly stunned and felt incredulous.

"The same person."

After contacting the context, many things finally seemed to have traces of connection. He slowly said, "What is it for?"

Meng Yuqian frowned, he seemed to have received a heavy blow, and cried out in grief, "I knew it, you are such an ungrateful person, just listening to the words on the surface will make you think that it is real, what's there to make me think so much about? If you were working at Jiang Lin before, at least I could extort trade secrets from you, I wouldn't have done that. The strict atmosphere returned to its previous relaxed state after his farce. However, she could not help but ask, "You just want to get to know me?"

He grinned and said harshly, "What do you think!"

Of the two people with completely opposite personalities, one was always smiling, while the other was almost not smiling. Meng Yuqian seemed to never get angry, and even if she suspected him, he would only pass with a smile.

Her smile almost made him lose himself in her laughter. He couldn't help but sigh and worriedly ask, "Be careful, do you have a lover?"

She widened her eyes in horror and looked at him in disbelief, thinking that he had guessed something, but seeing that he didn't point it out, she told herself not to worry and tried to calm down. "What did you say? Don't speak nonsense."

She did not know how much her answer excited him. He would definitely not let go of such a woman. He suddenly grabbed her hand. "Be careful, believe me, you are very suitable for me and I am most suitable for you." She was stunned, thinking that he wanted to say something but couldn't think of what he was going to say. She casually replied, "Alright, alright, alright. I'll think about it …"

She went to the bathroom to wash her hands. When she came back, he was wiping his hands with a tissue when he suddenly stood up from his seat, walked in front of her, and squatted down with one foot. He asked with a half-squatting posture, "How is it? Have you made up your mind? " This kind of posture was used when proposing marriage …

Bai Jinxi was stunned by his solemn ceremony and could not react in time. "What are you thinking about?"

"Marry me, of course."
