Chapter 422: Her Old Man   Several hundred kilometres away from the city centre, Bai Qinghao had just ended his inspection of one of Sheng Shi Group’s important projects. He was currently resting in one of the break rooms.

He opened his phone to see two new messages.

The first was a photo of Jiang Xingnan watching Fang Xinxin emotionally.

The second was a short video which held a simple conversation:

[Her old man will show her the consequences!] Jiang Xingnan’s angry expression was captured in it.

He continued watching it.

[Brother Nan, what do you mean by that? Are you planning on punishing her or taking her?]

[The one you’re thinking of.]

After watching the video, Bai Qinghao’s handsome complexion instantly turned green. He commanded darkly. “Instruct the people at the city centre to send someone to teach Jiang Xingnan a lesson!”

He even dared to have thoughts about his woman. He must have gotten sick of living!

“Yes, sir.” A bodyguard immediately carried out his orders.

Bai Qinghao stared at the unsaved number. He had already received a third message from this person. He narrowed his cold eyes.

It seems like someone was watching Jiang Xingnan and Fang Xinxin’s actions to secretly send him news.

The corner of his lips rose coldly.

...

After returning to the dormitory, Fang Xinxin began missing her other half. She sent Bai Qinghao a message on WeChat:

[What are you up to?]

Bai Qinghao responded in seconds.

[When I’m not around, you have to be obedient!]

[I’m very obedient. I spend all my time missing you.]

She sent the message and accompanied it with a sticker of a warm smile.

[Is that so?]

It was a neutral response.

Fang Xinxin was dissatisfied. He didn’t even respond that he missed her too. She decided to video call him.

He accepted the call.

She saw that Bai Qinghao was seated on a large, red wood chair. He was dressed in a black suit and his posture was upright. His aura was powerful.

However, his eyes were slightly bloodshot from fatigue. “Bai Qinghao, why don’t you sleep for a little while?”

She had been upset with his response.

However, at the sight of his exhausted figure, she recalled Tong Yu telling her that Bai Qinghao had stayed up all night yesterday. He even rushed back from abroad to spend thirty minute with her.

Her heart instantly softened.

Bai Qinghao nodded slightly. It had been forty-eight hours since he last slept. It was time that he rested a little.

He took in her slender figure and her little face covered in medicinal paste. Only her sparkling eyes could be seen. He wasn’t sure why, but his heart moved only for her. He coldly instructed her. “I’ll only be home in five days. Wait for me!”

She made an ‘okay’ gesture.

Deep down, she was disappointed.

Her great-aunt had left today.

Unfortunately, he was too busy and she still needed to wait for five more days.

“Aren’t you hanging up?” She lifted her delicate brows.

He could not bear to hang up. Although he felt this way on the inside, he coldly reminded her. “Don’t forget your promise in five days!”

Her expression turned bashful. Thankfully, the medicine prevented him from seeing her blush. “I know.”

She did not wish to disturb his rest. After taking a proper look at his handsome appearance, she took the initiative to end the call.

Bai Qinghao noticed her loving gaze right before the call ended. His frozen heart instantly turned warm.

There was space for him in her heart. She did miss him!

The hint of unhappiness caused by Jiang Xingnan’s one-sided feelings instantly disappeared.

Fang Xinxin laid down on her bed and held her hand out to count the days it would take for Bai Qinghao to return.

“Oh no, Brother Nan was tossed into the lake!” Someone shouted from outside the dormitory.

Fang Xinxin approached the balcony to see a crowd of people running towards the school lake.
