However, Bai Yulai had never expected to become the object of Bai Tingxin's jealousy.
Bai Yulai said, "Mr. Bai, if you still have feelings for Lianyi, then I'm not the one you should ask this. It's Lianyi. Even if I intend to be with Lianyi, it won't work if Lianyi doesn't choose me. Similarly, if you still have feelings for her but she doesn't choose you, you can't be with her either. It's all up to Lianyi."
Bai Tingxin pressed her thin lips together tightly. "I'm only asking if you're going to be with her."
Bai Yulai sighed. It seemed he could not leave if he did not provide him an answer. "Lianyi is a good woman. If we like each other, I naturally want to be with her."
"If you can love her enough to do anything for her, then you deserve to be with her. Otherwise, you have no right!" Bai Tingxin spoke as if it was a warning.
"What's the matter? If I don't love Lianyi enough to do anything for her, are you going to stop me from being with her, Mr. Bai?" asked Bai Yulai.
Bai Tingxin did not reply, but his cold expression already gave away the answer.
"Mr. Bai, can you do anything for Lianyi? If so, then you can pursue Lianyi again. I told you, it's all up to Lianyi," said Bai Yulai.
However, Bai Tingxin's expression instantly changed after saying that. He grabbed Bai Yulai's collar and glared at him. "You know nothing. Do you think I..."
He stopped speaking.
Bai Tingxin loosened his grip in despair. The eyes that were full of jealousy instantly became gloomy. "You'd better be loyal to Lianyi. Otherwise, I'll make your life a living hell. I, Bai Tingxin, mean what I say!"
With that said, Bai Tingxin turned around and left.
...
Qin Lianyi's life began to return to normal. She learned that the design firm had fired Zhao Ruyou when she went back to work.
"You know what? I heard that Zhao Ruyou shot the video of you entering and exiting the hotel. She then sold it to the reporters and gossip account!" A colleague told Qin Lianyi the gossip they knew. "I didn't expect Zhao Ruyou to be someone like that!"
Another colleague said, "You didn't expect it? I knew it all along. Zhao Ruyou's really mean. She wanted Lianyi dead by doing that."
"I know, right? Fortunately, Lianyi is alright now. Zhao Ruyou is now suffering the consequences of her actions! The director did a good thing by firing her. The office has one less black sheep now!"
