Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1544: Bai Yun Feels a Wave of Sorrow in Her Heart

Chapter 1544: Chapter 1544: Bai Yun Feels a Wave of Sorrow in Her Heart

So with no other choice, she had to come to Yubao Square to find Gu Qiaoqiao.

Her uncle had also warned her in advance not to cause any trouble, or he would never speak to her again.

After all, everyone knew about Lin Qinghuan’s affair, and it was always a topic in their circle, with reactions that were sympathetic, regretful, mocking, or dismissive — all kinds of sentiments.

The person was already gone, but people still wouldn’t stop talking about it.

Mostly because Lin Qinghuan single-handedly almost destroyed the entire Lin Family, though, of course, the biggest culprit was the Lin Family patriarch.

This incident served as a warning bell in these elite circles, and Zhang Yi naturally knew about it. Bai Yun had, to a large extent, already affected the Bai Family, and he certainly didn’t want her to make any more mistakes.

Although he was busy over by the counter, he would occasionally glance over to check on the situation here.

Seeing his niece smiling as she spoke, he felt a little relieved.

At this time, Gu Qiaoqiao noticed Zhang Yi constantly glancing this way, clearly uneasy, so she turned around, waved at Zhang Yi, and smiled, signaling him to rest assured and go about his own business.

She and Bai Yun wouldn’t be an issue. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Because Gu Qiaoqiao also knew that Bai Yun seemed to have come to ask her for something, not to pick a fight with her.

Bai Yun has always been someone who knows when to yield and when to stand her ground.

Gu Qiaoqiao curled her lips slightly, and just then a server came by to pour a cup of tea for each of them. Gu Qiaoqiao sat across from Bai Yun and softly spoke, "Sit down and have some tea first."

Since she had agreed not to pursue past grievances with Bai Yun, she now saw it as a courtesy to Zhang Yi and maintained basic politeness toward Bai Yun.

Moreover, Gu Qiaoqiao had genuinely let go of many things; Bai Yun had already received the punishment she deserved, so if she kept holding on, it wouldn’t be a fair victory.

Thus, her attitude naturally changed a lot.

Bai Yun really hadn’t expected Gu Qiaoqiao to be so gentle with her; she had been prepared to be met with indifference.

After all, that’s the attitude Gu Qiaoqiao usually had when they met before.

She was initially stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

The teacup was of high quality, and so were the tea leaves inside.

At this moment, Bai Yun unexpectedly felt a bit overwhelmed.

Inside, she cursed her own failure, yet felt helpless.

Every time she saw Gu Qiaoqiao, she had these complex feelings.

Seeing Bai Yun’s conflicted expression, Gu Qiaoqiao curled her lips in amusement, feeling quite good. She then picked up her teacup and took a sip as well.

Bargaining with Ouyang Wensheng’s subordinates had made her mouth dry, and this tea was just what she needed to quench her thirst.

When Gu Qiaoqiao put down her teacup, she saw Bai Yun looking at her with a complex gaze, as if wanting to say something but hesitating.

Gu Qiaoqiao smiled gently, "So, what’s the matter you came to see me about?"

Bai Yun knew this was not the time to stir up her emotions. This was Yubao Square, and people were busy and had businesses to run.

She couldn’t keep Gu Qiaoqiao for long.

Otherwise, it would not only displease Gu Qiaoqiao but also her uncle.

At the same time, Bai Yun felt a sense of desolation in her heart.

Since when did she have to act according to Gu Qiaoqiao’s expression?

She held her teacup tightly for a moment, then relaxed her grip, looked at Gu Qiaoqiao, and finally said, "Qiaoqiao, I’m in a relationship with Shang Qing’s third brother."

Oh?

Gu Qiaoqiao raised an eyebrow. She had heard Shang Qing mention it, but hadn’t known the relationship was confirmed.

But what did this have to do with her, Gu Qiaoqiao?

Gu Qiaoqiao replied calmly, "Well, congratulations."

Bai Yun was taken aback too. From Gu Qiaoqiao’s expression, it seemed she didn’t know. Didn’t Shang Qing tell her?

She bit her lip, deciding to get straight to the point, skipping any pretense, "Qiaoqiao, I’m here today to ask you to speak to Shang Qing, and ask her not to interfere in my marriage with her third brother. I know everything in the past was my fault, and I owe her an apology. I’m willing to apologize to her face, but I genuinely like Shang You and want to spend my life with him. I really don’t want to lose him."

This time, it was Gu Qiaoqiao’s turn to be stunned.

What’s going on?

Shang Qing interfering in Bai Yun’s marriage with her third brother?

Why hadn’t she heard Shang Qing mention this?

But then she thought that she hadn’t seen Shang Qing recently, so she naturally didn’t know these things. But why would Bai Yun come to her? Was it because she and Shang Qing were close friends?

Gu Qiaoqiao furrowed her brow, "Bai Yun, I don’t know what’s going on between you and Shang Qing, but if I insert myself recklessly, Shang Qing might resent me."

She didn’t want to be used as a pawn.

"Qiaoqiao, she won’t resent you. Everyone knows Shang Qing listens to you the most now."

"Bai Yun, you’re overestimating me. Shang Qing and I are good friends; it’s not about who listens to whom," Gu Qiaoqiao said indifferently.

"Qiaoqiao, I didn’t mean anything by it. I just think Shang Qing values your opinion very much and will definitely heed it. I just want to ask you to do me this favor. I really can’t think of any other way." Bai Yun hurriedly explained, seeing the look on Gu Qiaoqiao’s face.

Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyebrows furrowed, then she raised her eyes to scrutinize Bai Yun, noticing the sincerity in her words and the pitiful look on her face, which made Gu Qiaoqiao feel a bit of aversion. Bai Yun was doing well at playing the victim and subtly attacking others.

Without careful thinking, one might really fall for her trap.

If Shang Qing’s third brother truly liked her, why would he listen to what his sister said? He wouldn’t even listen to what his parents said.

But then again, Shang Qing indeed had an issue with Bai Yun.

But who could she blame, really? Our own actions lead to our circumstances.

Had she gotten along well with others, there’d be no point in her current predicament. So, one should be kind because karma eventually kicks in.

However, those feelings flashed past Gu Qiaoqiao’s mind.

She certainly wouldn’t let Bai Yun see them.

"Bai Yun, since you’ve come to me today, I might as well ask, how exactly is Shang Qing interfering in your marriage with her third brother?"

"Shang You and I rarely meet as it is, and during the last two meetings, he’s been particularly distant. He used to talk about reporting for a marriage license, but hasn’t brought it up anymore, and he couldn’t speak more than three sentences with me. He wasn’t like this before; we always had lots to talk about. The last time we met, he didn’t even look at me when he left..."

Bai Yun hadn’t wanted to say such humiliating things to Gu Qiaoqiao, but for some reason, as she talked, everything came out, and her voice choked, tears falling down one drop at a time.
