Thinking about this, Bai Susu felt a surge of anger deep inside.
These people are really too shameless!
Every second that Grandpa stays in their hands, my heart won’t be at ease.
I must think of a way to rescue Grandpa.
If it really comes down to it, I can only use myself as bait.
But, should I tell Ye Fan about this?
If Ye Fan knows, he might not let me go. After all, he’s so concerned about my safety.
Alas, all of this really exhausts me both mentally and physically.
I feel like my mind is a complete mess right now.
“I poured you a glass of juice, it’s orange juice!” Ye Fan came back holding a glass of orange juice and a glass of lemon juice.
“I want to drink your lemon juice, can I?” Bai Susu asked while looking at the other glass of lemon juice in Ye Fan’s hand.
“Uh, I’ve already had a sip. If you don’t mind, it’s yours!” Ye Fan smiled, a bit embarrassed.
Just now, he felt thirsty and had taken a few sips while pouring it.
He didn’t expect Bai Susu to like lemon juice.
He thought that girls generally preferred slightly sweeter juices and food.
However, Bai Susu likes lemon juice, he took note of that.
“It’s fine!” Bai Susu said with her head lowered, her cheeks slightly flushed. She took the lemon juice from Ye Fan’s hand and took a sip.
The sour taste made her feel a bit more clear-headed.
This was like having an indirect kiss with Ye Fan!
Thinking this, Bai Susu felt a bit shy.
But then, she thought again.
They had actually kissed before.
So, drinking from the same cup was really nothing.
I’m being overly sensitive!
Ye Fan watched Bai Susu’s actions, his lips curving slightly, a hint of amusement in his eyes.
Sitting there, drinking the orange juice in his hand, he found it to be even tastier!
It seemed as though he had never tasted such delicious orange juice before.
“Alright, let’s eat. It’ll get cold in a while,” Bai Susu said, her head still lowered, as she picked up her spoon and began to sip her porridge.
She was somewhat timid and dared not look at Ye Fan.
Ye Fan, noticing Bai Susu’s slightly flushed cheeks, understood a bit.
So, the girl was feeling shy.
This young lady is truly innocent.
Look at her, getting all shy just from sharing a drink.
Such thin skin, but very cute!
So pure!
“Mmhmm, eat more, you’ve lost weight recently,” Ye Fan said as he picked up a piece of lean meat from his plate and placed it in Bai Susu’s bowl.
This young lady had been hit hard by recent events, and he truly feared that her body wouldn’t hold up.
People grow through difficulties and challenges.
The tougher it is, the faster they grow!
.
I hope this young lady will cheer up soon and become as happy and carefree as she used to be.
This Bai Susu with a face full of worry is not what he wanted to see.
He wanted Bai Susu to return to being that confident, dazzling girl.
After eating, the two returned to the room.
Ye Fan told Bai Susu to rest well before he left.
Bai Susu lay on her back on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
After spacing out for half an hour, she finally sat up.
She picked up the phone and dialed Jia Ruguang’s number.
After a few rings…
“You finally deigned to call me?” came Jia Ruguang’s teasing voice from the phone.
That voice made Bai Susu’s teeth itch with hatred!
But, for the sake of Grandpa, she had to hold back.
Bai Susu took a deep breath and let it out slowly before she managed to suppress the anger and impulse in her heart.
“Where is my Grandpa!” Bai Susu asked directly.
She despised this Jia Ruguang.
If not for her grandfather, she really wouldn’t want to say a word to this man, let alone contact him.
It was all her fault that her grandfather was involved.
So, she must rescue Grandfather.
The mistake she made must be rectified by herself.
“Hehe, do you think I’ll tell you if you ask me directly? Bai Susu, you know what I want. Of course, you are a smart person, so don’t ask such meaningless questions!” Jia Ruguang sneered over the phone.
“You, if I agree to your terms, will you really let my grandfather go?” Bai Susu asked again.
This man couldn’t be fully trusted.
“Otherwise, what? You don’t believe me, then what can you do? Besides, I’m not interested in your grandfather. I’m only interested in you, Bai Susu. You can’t escape from the palm of my hand. Wouldn’t it be nice to just stay by my side and be my woman? Moreover, your parents agree, so this is also your parents’ wish. Why resist and gain nothing, causing unrest in the entire family!” Jia Ruguang spoke again.
Bai Susu was so angry at these words she felt like vomiting blood!
She had never seen such a shameless person!
All of this was because he forced her, and now he turned it around, claiming she was the one not listening to her parents and causing trouble.
Jia Ruguang was doing this on purpose, wasn’t he!
Just to make her suffer and feel guilty!
Towards her parents, she had nothing to say, no guilt nor self-blame. She just felt that she owed her grandfather.
The word “parents” was something she no longer cared about.
Now, to think she was the one causing unrest at home, how ridiculous!
“Jia Ruguang, you really know how to talk nonsense. I’m telling you, since you’re using my grandfather to threaten me, you’d better treat him well and take care of him. If anything happens to him, even if I die, I won’t let you off!” Bai Susu said each word with emphasis.
“Don’t worry, your grandfather is being well taken care of by me. He has a family doctor looking after him every day. After all, you and I are soon to be a family. Your grandfather is mine too, so I naturally have to take good care of him. Speak up, have you thought it through?” Jia Ruguang said.
He knew that Bai Susu would definitely compromise for Old Master Bai.
As long as he got Bai Susu, everything else would be easy to discuss.
Of course, that Ye Fan was also fond of Bai Susu, wasn’t he? He wanted Ye Fan to witness her become his woman, to let Ye Fan be heartbroken and devastated!
Ye Fan would surely be interesting to watch then.
He must make Ye Fan kneel down and beg for mercy!
He remembered that day’s humiliation every single day.
From a young age, who didn’t treat him with great respect? Yet that brat dared to lay a hand on him! This was his territory, and he naturally had to regain face.
Otherwise, how could he continue to mix in this place?
Where would he put his face!
This disgrace, of course, had to be avenged!
It must be returned fiercely.
No matter how impressive Ye Fan was or how stubborn, he couldn’t fight against him. After all, there’s a saying that goes, “Even a powerful dragon cannot suppress a local snake.”
This Bo City was his territory.
No matter who came here, they had to follow his rules!
Hmph!
“Bai Susu, I’m only giving you one chance, so think it through. My patience is limited,” Jia Ruguang reminded her once again.
He intended to pressure Bai Susu.
To make her lose her composure and calm, to break down her mental defenses.
“I’ve thought it through. I’ll agree, but I have conditions,” Bai Susu took a deep breath, her eyes filled with resolve.
“You say, I might listen,” he said.
Demands? Let’s first hear them.
“After I agree, you have to release my grandfather as soon as possible and not trouble Ye Fan. Also, I hope you can help the Bai family out of this crisis,” Bai Susu said.
She just wanted to stabilize Jia Ruguang for now.
Once Grandfather was safe, she would find a way to escape. Handling her own situation would be easier.
After all, Grandfather was a patient and would need proper treatment in the hospital.
“I can agree to these conditions. They are reasonable and not excessive. I agree!” Jia Ruguang said with a laugh.
He hadn’t expected the conditions to be so simple.
Of course, as long as Bai Susu was his, Old Master Bai wouldn’t matter anymore nor had any use.
As for the Bai family, acquiring it would be better than falling into the hands of others, so this also counted as help.
As for Ye Fan, he would agree to this for now anyway.
“Good, it’s a deal,” Bai Susu relaxed slightly, but the next moment, she heard Jia Ruguang continue…
“Two days later, at our wedding ceremony, I will naturally release your grandfather. So, don’t disappoint me, my bride. If you don’t show, or if you go back on your word, you will only get to see your grandfather’s corpse!” Jia Ruguang laughed heartily as he spoke.
He believed that Bai Susu would surely come.
“You…” Bai Susu was so mad her face turned pale, her teeth biting down on her slightly whitened lower lip.
