Qin Yu came to see a client at the spa villa on a whim. After he finished discussing business with the customer, the assistant said that Li Muqing was hosting a bikini party next door and even invited Bai Nianxi over to greet him.
Qin Yu originally did not want to go over.
Although the relationship between the elders of the Qin and Li families was good, it was natural for the juniors to be more intimate. However, in the past few years, Li Muqing had been pestering him more and more. If it wasn't for him caring about the face of the elders, he wouldn't have had the patience to deal with her.
But then he thought of Bai Nianxi, his fiancee in name.
He had received an assistant's report saying that Li Muqing had been secretly toying with Bai Nianxi. Since Li Muqing made an appointment with her today, it was inevitable that he would make things difficult for her.
Even though he did not really feel anything about his fiancee, her grandfather had still saved him before. In terms of emotions and logic, he could not allow Bai Nianxi to be easily bullied by others.
In Qin Yu's impression, Bai Nianxi was sensitive but timid.
Therefore, when he rushed to the swimming pool, he thought that he would see a little white rabbit that was curled up into a wail. But what did he actually see?
Was the girl in front of him who arrogantly grabbed Li Muqing's wrist really his fiancee that was like a little rabbit?
Qin Yu began to suspect that he had made a mistake in his understanding of Bai Nianxi.
How could a timid person have the courage to push Li Muqing into the swimming pool? How dare she lie in front of everyone and say that she loved her so much that he didn't even want to?
The situation in front of her eyes, no matter how she looked at it, seemed like she was bullying Li Muqing.
Qin Yu ignored Li Muqing and stared at Bai Nianxi's back for a while. Then, he shifted his gaze to the back of her head.
Qin Yu frowned. He took out a light blue handkerchief from his bosom and pressed it on the back of the head of Bai Nianxi's head.
"You're hurt." Qin Yu said.
Just as Lin Xi was feeling guilty about her nonsense just now, a handkerchief was suddenly pressed on the back of her head, and she subconsciously reached out to cover it, waiting for her fingertip to touch something cool, only then did she react and touch Qin Yu's hand.
It was clearly summer already but Qin Yu's hands were still cold.
In his memory, there seemed to be a pair of familiar hands.
Lin Xi turned her head towards Qin Yu in a daze. She was sure that she hadn't seen him before she jumped off the building.
The Qin family had always kept a low profile, and a business like the Lin's might have a bit of fame, but it was not qualified to work with the Qin family. Even Father Lin did not have access to Qin Yu, let alone Lin Xi.
Perhaps, it was because Bai Nianxi had touched Qin Yu's hands in the past that she felt that it was familiar?
Lin Xi was in a daze, she had even forgotten to greet Qin Yu. When she came back to her senses, she had heard Li Muqing explaining the wound on the back of her head.
"Nian Xi accidentally fell by the pool just now. She probably hit her head at that time. She didn't scream in pain. Who knew she was injured?"
Li Muqing's voice no longer had its arrogance from before, as she yelled "reminiscing about the past". Those who didn't know what kind of relationship she had with Bai Nianxi would think that she had.
Lin Xi couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Qin Yu didn't comment, and only spoke to Lin Xi in a neither light nor heavy tone: "Why so careless? I thought you were bullied? "
Although his words were directed at Lin Xi, the person who he was speaking to was actually Li Muqing.
Only when Li Muqing felt a little guilty due to his gaze did he continue to speak: "Earlier, you accidentally tripped yourself, and then accidentally threw Miss Li into the pool. Luckily, Miss Li was magnanimous and forgiving, and didn't care about what you said, if it was someone else, you wouldn't be so lucky."
Under Qin Yu's attentive gaze, Li Muqing laughed awkwardly: "Why would I care about Nian Xi? I know she didn't do it on purpose, and I wouldn't mind. "
Even though Li Muqing was extremely annoyed, wishing that she could tear Bai Nianxi apart on the spot, but after what Qin Yu had said, if she really did anything to Bai Nianxi, she would seem to be too magnanimous, to the point where she couldn't leave such a bad impression on Qin Yu.
After Li Muqing finished speaking, she forced a smile at Lin Xi, and got a light snort from Lin Xi. She was so angry that she almost couldn't maintain her expression.
"Since Miss Li doesn't mind, then I'll take Xiaoxi to the hospital first."
Qin Yu didn't have any intention to stay any longer. He nodded towards Li Muqing and pulled his hand. Seeing that Lin Xi was wearing a bathing suit, he considerately took off his jacket and draped it over her shoulders.
The group of people behind them looked at the back of the two as they left, and their eyes turned red with jealousy.
It was said that Master Qin San didn't like his fiancée in the countryside, but looking at the situation in front of him, it was obvious that he was taking care of her.
Was what Bai Nianxi said true? Did Master Qin San really love a little white rabbit who had never seen the world before?
Thinking about Bai Nianxi's last words, the bikini beauties started to believe him.
At the same time, they could not help but rejoice. Luckily they did not help Li Muqing bully Bai Nianxi just now. They could not compare to Li Muqing's family background, if it was because they displeased Qin Yu, then it would not be worth it.
Not far away, Li Muqing, whose makeup had been smeared all over by the water, stared coldly at Bai Nianxi's back, gritted her teeth, and said, "Bai Nianxi, let's wait and see!"
However, at the moment, Lin Xi who was being envied and hated by everyone, had actually been flung away by Qin Yu the moment he stepped out of the door.
As if he had touched something dirty, Qin Yu took out a handkerchief from somewhere and carefully wiped his hand that was holding onto Bai Nianxi's.
Lin Xi was furious, if not for the fact that Qin Yu helped her just now, she would have ran to the fountain at the door to wash her hands.
It was as if someone was holding hands with him!
But no matter what, Qin Yu had acted very intimate with her previously, so it could be considered as giving her, his fiancee, a proper name. In the future, if there was anyone who wanted to bully her with the Qin family backing them, they would have to think it over carefully.
Lin Xi thought about it, and decided to thank Qin Yu, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by Qin Yu.
"Assistant Yao, call another car over. I'll go back to the company first and send Miss Nianxi to the hospital." Qin Yu instructed the assistant behind him.
Assistant Yao replied and ended the call quickly. Not long after, a Maybach car drove over.
Qin Yu got on Mach. From the moment he left the door to the moment he got in the car, he didn't even glance at Lin Xi.
Lin Xi had not even thanked her but it was obvious that Qin Yu did not want to bother with her. She tactfully closed her mouth and got into another car with Assistant Yao.
Seeing Qin Yu's cold attitude, Lin Xi shrugged her shoulders.
Looks like Li Muqing was right about something today. Qin Yu did not like Bai Nianxi and would probably not marry her. The reason why she had protected her today was probably because of the grace that her grandfather had given her in the past.
However, this was also good. There were fewer people related to Bai Nianxi, the person who revived after taking over Bai Nianxi's body. Her life in the future would be easier, and she could focus on dealing with Lin Qian and Qiao Mingyu.
She had said that as long as she still had a breath left in her, she would never let them off!
Qin Yu quickly drove the Maybach car away, and Assistant Yao started the car to send Lin Xi to the hospital.
"Can you take me to the Central Hospital? The doctors there are more professional. " Lin Xi said as the car was leaving the spa villa.
Her head didn't hurt much anymore, but she wanted to go to the downtown hospital and see her father. She wanted to know how her father was doing, and whether Lin Qian had attacked him again after her accident.
The Assistant Yao was not suspicious of Lin Xi's words. He agreed to it and turned the car around, heading to the intersection at the center of the city.
Afraid that Lin Xi would be bored on the way, the Assistant Yao even kindly turned on the car's broadcast.
The radio was tuned to a music channel, which was playing popular songs and occasionally playing gossip from the entertainment industry.
Lin Xi listened absent-mindedly, her entire mind was on her father in the hospital.
Suddenly, she heard her name on the radio.
"Today is the seventh day since Lin Xi's death, so I believe everyone has seen the news. On the day of Lin Xi's wedding to the Shadow Emperor, due to father's sudden cerebral hemorrhage and being hospitalized in a coma, Lin Xi suffered a huge blow and leapt down from the fifth floor of the hospital, passing away in death.
"Actually, when Lin Xi was mentioned, everyone first thought that her identity was a star or an actor. It had been almost two years since she'd started out, and she'd been controversial since she'd started out. Someone had roughly counted that she might have more black powder than real ones. However, it was this person who had once been scolded by everyone to get out of the entertainment industry. She had just been nominated for best female lead at the Golden Peony Film Festival two days ago. Now that she thought about it, her death was extremely regrettable.
"Actually, Lin Xi still has another identity, she is the daughter of Lin's, the leading enterprise. The heir he appointed jumped off a building and died. He heard that Lin's's share price had fallen a lot these few days, and some people even predicted that Lin's might not be able to recover from this.
"Of course, there are also people who suspect that Lin Xi's death is a secret. After all, when Lin Xi had been scammed by the entire internet, she was still in the entertainment circle, retaliating against the heavens and living a carefree and proud life, and she didn't seem like she would commit suicide just because her father was so sick. Therefore, there were also people who thought that Lin Xi did not actually commit suicide, but had some other wealthy family's secrets. In response to the numerous questions on the web, the current person in charge of the Lin's would join forces with the Public Security Bureau and hold a press conference at 3: 30 this afternoon to clarify everything. At that time, there would be corresponding live broadcasts on the web and those interested could pay attention to it.
"Alright, let's end this gossip. Let's continue to enjoy Dai Hua Ni's' The Night '..."
Lin Xi didn't really care about her nomination of "Best Actress", but how did her death change from a murder to a suicide?
It was fine that Lin Qian and Qiao Mingyu were lying, but it was also understandable that the police would be deceived.
Mom knew her best. How could she commit suicide because her dad was unconscious? Did her mother never suspect anything that even strangers on the internet suspected?
Lin Xi suddenly thought of the worst possibility.
