Destined with You-Chapter 1291 - 1296: You Seem to Have Grown 2

Bai Qianqian, "..."

Did she think that hearing him say that, would make her feel any better?

Bai Ruiqing brought Bai Qianqian to the seaside, but Bai Qianqian was too preoccupied to appreciate the scenery. Being with Bai Ruiqing only made her feel pressurized and uncomfortable.

A few couples were strolling on the beach. Bai Ruiqing didn’t join them, but instead leaned against the front of the car, pulled out a box of cigarettes, and started smoking.

Bai Qianqian was slightly startled and blurted out, "Senior, when did you learn to smoke?"

"When else could it be, recently. I’ve been feeling terrible," Bai Ruiqing said, puffing on his cigarette, staring at the sea in the distance, his expression a bit elusive.

Bai Qianqian’s heart pounded. She turned her head away awkwardly. She never wanted anyone to get hurt because of her, but in the end, she had hurt Bai Ruiqing.

"That feeling of being worse off than dead, you wouldn’t understand," Bai Ruiqing flicked off the ashes from his cigarette and casually spoke.

Bai Qianqian turned pale, and following Bai Ruiqing’s suggestion, "Let’s walk on the beach, and I’ll send you back a little later."

As they walked side by side, Bai Qianqian felt heavy-hearted, she even failed to notice that Bai Ruiqing had stopped and started to chat with a woman.

"Qianqian." Bai Ruiqing called to her, and Bai Qianqian came back to her senses and walked back.

"Ruiqing, is this your girlfriend? She’s truly adorable," the woman said, looking kindly at Bai Qianqian.

Bai Qianqian also looked at her. The woman appeared to be in her mid-to-late twenties, tall, wearing a black and white suit, looking very intellectual. She’s beautiful with bright features, long curly hair down to her waist, making her look even more charming. She was indeed an eye-catching beauty.

"She’s my future wife," Bai Ruiqing said, stretching his arm around Bai Qianqian.

"Oh~" the woman elongated the sound, her face expressing something more profound.

"That’s not the case; Senior Ruiqing, you shouldn’t speak such baseless things," Bai Qianqian frowned at him, she has said it many times before, she could never marry him.

Noticing Bai Qianqian’s resistance towards Bai Ruiqing, Mi Qingwei quickly changed the subject, "Hello, my name is Mi Qingwei."

"Hello, my name is Bai Qianqian," Bai Qianqian reached out her hand to her.

"You also have the surname Bai, what a coincidence."

"Qingwei, have you seen my brother since you’ve been back in the country?" Bai Ruiqing asked with a smile.

"Not yet, I just got back this weekend and haven’t seen anyone yet," Mi Qingwei lifted her hand and tucked her falling hair behind her ear.

Bai Qianqian noticed the different way Mi Qingwei mentioned Bai Jingqing, and she involuntarily furrowed her brows looking at the woman in front of her.

This made Bai Qianqian remember what Bai Jingqing once said about a woman who stripped naked on his birthday; could it be the woman standing in front of her!

"You and my brother would make a fine pair," Bai Ruiqing looked at Bai Qianqian and said meaningfully.

"How is your brother doing?" Mi Qingwei asked, her gaze flickering.

"Now he’s the dean of the hospital, he’s doing fantastic."

"Is that so? That’s good," Mi Qingwei’s tone was tinged with an unavoidable disappointment.

Bai Qianqian, sensing some hidden messages in their conversation, started to feel anxious. She was eager to know what kind of relationship this woman and Bai Jingqing actually shared?

An ex-girlfriend?

What kind of ex-girlfriend?

"If you hadn’t gone overseas back then, you would now be my sister-in-law, and the child would already be in grade school," Bai Ruiqing finally made his meaning clear.
