Qi Hang was not convinced: "Who said I wasn't serious? I just want you to be my wife, what do you say?"

Compared to his rage, Bai Xiaowei seemed to be at ease: "What else can I say? Have you asked Prosecutor Qi what he thinks? If he knew you were marrying a divorced woman, would he agree?"

"Also, I was transferred from a remote town to District C, which is nothing in itself. But if you were my boyfriend, this matter would be hard to explain. Would someone with ulterior motives spread rumors and say that Prosecutor Qi abused his power for personal gain and used his authority to help his future daughter-in-law transfer jobs?"

Bai Xiaowei said earnestly: "Even if you don't care about yourself, you should consider your father's situation. It is precisely because of his high position and power that his every move will attract more attention."

"It's fine for me if others spread rumors. At most, I can help and then go back to County A. But it's different for Prosecutor Qi. He has the capital to go to the Beijing Procuratorate. He can't let this fabricated thing ruin his future."

Qi Hang's expression became serious.

Bai Xiaowei's words may sound alarmist, but it is undeniable that she makes sense.

My father is in a critical period of advancement. He may be promoted to deputy prosecutor of the Beijing Municipal Procuratorate. When he retires, he may enjoy the treatment of a provincial or ministerial level leader. What a great honor that would be.

But at such a critical moment, if someone were to catch him with something because of his emotional affairs, perhaps it couldn't be called a handle. After all, Bai Xiaowei was relying on Professor Guo's relationship and had nothing to do with his father.

But will your competitors sit down and listen to you calmly? Of course not. They would like to put the blame on you.

Even if it is finally found out that it has nothing to do with his father, so what? The opportunity for promotion and reuse is not always available. After this age, you will really miss it, and your life will stop here.

After thinking clearly about the interests involved, Qi Hangse regained his clarity of mind.

But he still felt unhappy. How could he be willing that such a smart, wise and beautiful woman could not belong to him but instead fell into the hands of an uneducated playboy?

So, when he spoke again, he stabbed Bai Xiaowei in the heart twice: "Do you cherish your boyfriend so much? Are you sure he has the same attitude towards you? And, he told you in person that he has countless lovers and indulges in sensual pleasures? Why don't I believe it?"

Bai Xiaowei felt her heart being stabbed, but she still kept smiling: "Who doesn't have some past? He can accept that I'm divorced, so I can accept his past, too. As long as he is loyal to me now, that's enough."

"Devoted? Huh?"

Qi Hang seemed to have heard something particularly funny. He laughed non-stop and even raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

The polite smile on Bai Xiaowei's lips gradually disappeared, and she looked at Qi Hang who was laughing with a cold face.

She didn't want to stay any longer and turned to leave, but she heard Qi Hang's voice behind her.

"Xiaowei, don't blame me for not reminding you. Gu Wenrui has a childhood sweetheart, and both parents are willing to help them settle down. What will you do then?"

Bai Xiaowei slowed down her pace, turned around, and looked at Qi Hang: "Are you talking about Xue Yunyun?"

Qi Hang didn't expect that she actually knew Xue Yunyun. He was puzzled and surprised: "You know Yunyun?"

Yunyun?

It was a very friendly call.

Is this a love triangle? Qi Hang likes Xue Yunyun, and Xue Yunyun likes Gu Wenrui?

Then, Qi Hang couldn't get the love he wanted from Xue Yunyun, so he took his anger out on Gu Wenrui, so he kept saying bad things about Gu Wenrui in front of him, so that he and Gu Wenrui would break up and he could achieve his goal of revenge against his love rival?

Seeing Bai Xiaowei's eyes flickering and her appearance of looking him up and down, Qi Hang was speechless. It seemed that she was imagining a tragic love drama.

"What are you thinking about? Yunyun is my cousin, and her mother is my aunt."

Oh, cousins!

The lively scene in her mind suddenly disappeared, and Bai Xiaowei asked seriously: "How do you know that Xue Yunyun and my boyfriend are lovers? Who told you? Xue Yunyun?"

"Do you need to tell me this specifically? I saw it from her circle of friends and heard it from her elders. Are you satisfied?"

As he said this, Qi Hang stared at Bai Xiaowei, trying to see sadness, disappointment or other emotions on her face.

Bai Xiaowei had a calm expression, without any fluctuations: "I handled a case before. The defendant was in love with a girl who worked in the same office with him, but the girl had no interest in him. The defendant didn't care about that. He often secretly photographed the girl from various angles and uploaded the girl's photos to his Moments and social accounts to create the illusion that he and the girl were a couple..."

Qi Hang retorted: "Yunyun is the eldest daughter of the Xue family. The men chasing after her line up from here to outside the Sixth Ring Road. Is it necessary for her to write and perform a play for a man?"

"That's not necessarily true," Bai Xiaowei also retorted, "She is the eldest daughter of the Xue family, and Wen Rui is the third young master of the Gu family. No matter how many men pursue her, there will always be men she can't get, right?"

"That......"

Qi Hang's thoughts raced as he racked his brains, trying to think of evidence that could prove Xue Yunyun was not in unrequited love.

Finally, he had an idea.

"What about the fact that Gu Wenrui has been a hero and saved Yunyun many times? Young Master Gu is not someone who likes to meddle in other people's business, right? He didn't hesitate to beat up Wei Siming to save Yunyun and create a feud with the Wei family?"

Her heart felt as if pierced by an ice needle. Bai Xiaowei only felt a chill and a stinging pain in her chest.

Why didn't Gu Wenrui tell her about this? Just because she didn't ask about it didn't mean he could hide it from her.

Did you forget or deliberately avoid it?

Bai Xiaowei didn't know. The only thing she knew was that now was not the time for her to show her pain and sadness. Giving Qi Hang hope would be cruel to him. Besides, she was not the kind of person who would keep people in suspense.

"That's not surprising," Bai Xiaowei smiled calmly, "The reason why Wen Rui and I met was that he saved a poor girl who was forced into prostitution by street thugs."

"So, what you call a hero saving a beautiful girl, in other words, can also be called a courageous act."

"..."

Seeing Bai Xiaowei's calm look, Qi Hang closed his eyes in frustration.

"I have something else to do, so I'm leaving now."

Bai Xiaowei greeted him casually, turned around, got into the car, and drove away.

Behind her, a red Ferrari slowly followed. When passing Qi Hang, the driver looked out the window and said, "Miss, it's Master Qi Hang."

"Don't worry about your cousin, just follow that woman."

A female voice sounded, and it had the same timbre as the voice Bai Xiaowei heard outside Gu Wenrui's ward door. The difference was that the voice this time did not sound as melodious as the song of an oriole. Instead, it was filled with arrogance and contempt for everything.

The driver responded and followed Bai Xiaowei's car all the way.
