1216 Chapter 1217-ambition and greed
Those people didn’t answer Bai Fuxin’s question at all. They didn’t even look at her.
Bai Fuxin was a little angry. She clenched her fists and wanted to walk past them to the room.
However, those people stretched out their arms and blocked her way.
miss Bai, please go back. We’re just following orders. Please don’t make things difficult for us.
Bai Fuxin’s eyes turned dark. Wen Muchu’s body was under the influence of the drug and he could not allow any harm to come to him.
She was afraid that Wen Muchu and Lan Xiao would do those things that would harm their bodies without any scruples.
Once he thought about it, he realized that they might have done something unspeakable.
Bai Fuxin’s heart was filled with anger.
“You guys go and tell LAN Qianqian that Mu Chu’s body can’t take it.”
I’m sorry, miss Bai. We won’t pass on any message. It’s our duty to protect Mr. Wen Jr., those people replied coldly.
Bai Fuxin’s face turned pale.
She looked at these people who were impervious to anything, bit her lip, and went back to her room.
After she returned to her room, she could not calm the anger in her heart.
She was unable to sit still and was unable to calm herself down.
She didn’t know how she had managed to survive the three hours.
It was about four in the afternoon when Lan Xiao’s door finally opened.
Bai Fuxin heard the noise and quickly opened the door.
She saw Wen Muchu holding Lan Xiao’s hand with a gentle look on his face as they left the floor.
Bai Fuxin’s heart trembled.
She quickly grabbed a coat and put it on before following him out of the room.
The group of them arrived at the restaurant on the second floor.
Lan Xiao was the first to see Bai Fuxin, and she greeted her lightly, ” “Miss Bai, you’re here to eat too?”
Bai Fuxin glanced at Lan Xiao indifferently. She then looked at Wen Muchu, trying to gauge his expression.
When she realized that his expression was still normal, she heaved a sigh of relief.
She then turned to Lan Xiao and said in a low voice, ” “You guys slept until now?”
Lan Xiao’s lips twitched awkwardly and she smiled without saying a word.
Bai Fuxin frowned and said in disagreement, ” “Mu Chu’s body is different from before. Lan Xiao, don’t ignore his body for your own happiness.”
Lan Xiao was slightly stunned and did not understand what Bai Fuxin meant.
Wen Muchu, on the other hand, pulled Lan Xiao over and asked her to sit down.
He indifferently glanced at Bai Fuxin and replied in a low voice, ” “I don’t understand the situation, so please don’t talk nonsense, Dr. Bai. I’m in good health, so you don’t have to worry about me. Your main job is to develop the antidote. You shouldn’t be asking about the rest. We’re going to eat now, so please help yourself.”
Bai Fuxin took a deep breath, and felt a faint pain in her heart.
His attitude was even colder than before.
What had she done wrong to deserve such ruthless treatment from him?
She bit her lip and looked at Wen Muchu sadly.
“Muchu, I’m doing this for your own good. Yingluo, I’m worried about you. How can you speak to me in such a tone?”
Lan Xiao tugged on Wen Muchu’s sleeve.
No matter what, Bai Fuxin was currently trying to help Wen Muchu develop an antidote.
At this juncture, she did not like Bai Xinfu to Harbor any resentment in her heart and harm Wen Muchu.
Lan Xiao’s lips curled up and he smiled at Bai Fuxin. “Miss Bai, I’m really sorry. Chu Chu doesn’t know how to speak, so his words are a little harsh.”
Bai Fuxin’s eyes turned slightly red.
She lowered her eyes and gave a desolate smile.
She turned around and left, walking to a remote corner and sitting down.
She ordered some Western food and did not look at Wen Muchu again, as if she was really hurt by those words.
Lan Xiao cast a glance at the sad and lonely Bai Fuxin and sighed.
“It seems like the old Dr. Bai will never come back.”
Bai Fuxin was not like this in the past.
If she had known that Wen Muchu was unhappy, she would have left immediately and would not have continued to pester him.
The Bai Fuxin of the past had her own dignity and pride.
But now, Bai Fuxin had changed. She had become a complete stranger.
She was so unfamiliar that Lan Xiao couldn’t see a trace of her past.
Wen Muchu poured a glass of water for Lan Xiao.
He pursed his lips and did not say anything.
After a while, the food they ordered was served.
Wen Muchu gave Lan Xiao some of her favorite dishes and the two of them ate happily.
Bai Fuxin looked on from afar, her heart in turmoil.
She could see that Wen Muchu’s gentleness and consideration seemed to have been given to Lan Xiao.
It was as though he would never give his warmth to anyone else other than Lan Xiao.
He was cold to everyone but Lan Xiao.
The way he looked at Lan Xiao was gentle.
It was so gentle that it seemed like water could drip from it.
Bai Fuxin looked at this scene in a daze. She was so sad that she was about to cry.
Her heart was already numb from the pain.
About half an hour later, Lan Xiao got up and went to the washroom.
Bai Fuxin’s eyes flickered, and she followed him to the bathroom.
Lan Xiao went to the toilet and washed his hands.
Bai Fuxin was standing at the door, biting her lip as she looked at her.
“LAN Qianqian, do you think you’re worthy of Wen Muchu’s love?”
Lan Xiao was stunned. She took a tissue and wiped the water droplets on her hands.
Before she could say anything, Bai Fuxin continued.
“You don’t deserve to be with him. He’s done so much for you, but what have you done for him? You only bring him disaster and danger. You can’t help him with anything. Don’t you feel ashamed of your own inferiority?”
Lan Xiao took a deep breath and turned to look at Bai Fuxin. Her lips curved into a cold smile.
“Oh, I’m not worthy? Then, miss Bai, who do you think is worthy of Chuchu? You?”
Bai Fuxin’s eyes flashed with determination as she replied noncommittally.
“It’s Qianqian. In this world, only I am worthy of Wen Muchu. I’m the only one who can help him go further and further. If you’re with him, you’ll only be a burden and not a help to him at all. Are you sure you want to continue to harm him like this?”
Lan Xiao raised his eyebrows and anger flashed past his eyes.
She did not want to make things too ugly with Bai Fuxin, but she did not expect her to say such overbearing words.
What a joke. Who exactly gave her such confidence to make her say these words?
“Oh?” Lan Xiao sneered and said coldly. I’m only harming him by being with him. Will you help him just because you’re with him? Then why don’t you tell me how you’re going to help him? Is it because of the Bai family’s little bit of family background, or because of your superb medical skills?”
Bai Fuxin’s eyes flashed with ambition and greed that she had never seen before.
She pursed her lips and walked towards Lan Xiao.
She stared into Lan Xiao’s eyes and said word by word.
“Wen Muchu and I are a match made in heaven. If he gets together with me, the Bai family will definitely do their best to support him. Now that he’s been infected with the forbidden drug, I can naturally develop an antidote with my medical skills. Without me, do you think he can successfully run for the president’s position?”
