Rebirth: Pampered Wife’S Counterattack

Chapter 774: Last Wish

“Everything has already been done. I don’t wish to listen to anyone’s lecture.” Bai Jingrou appeared numb.

She turned to Bai Qinghao and watched as he wrapped his arms gently around Fang Xinxin. She suddenly said, “Cousin, is Fang Xinxin really that great? It’s been so many years. Is she really so wonderful that your eyes never turned in my direction even once?”

“Do you wish to know why?” Bai Qinghao’s voice was cold and heavy. It did not hold the slightest feelings for her.

“Why?” Bai Jingrou wanted to know this too much.

A hint of disdain flashed past Bai Qinghao’s dark and distant gaze. “Because you’re dirty. No matter how refined or graceful you act, you can never conceal the greed and filth in your soul.”

“Hahaha, hahaha!” Bai Jingrou burst into laughter. Her voice was filled with misery.

Bai Qinghao found her laughter a horrid noise. “Servants, seal her lips up!”

“Wait.” Bai Jingrou rushed to stop. “Cousin, I have a wish. I don’t believe that after being the Bai family’s adopted daughter for over twenty years, the Bai family’s elders won’t have any feelings for me. Your parents are one thing, but I wish to have a phone call with Grandfather Bai Chongshan.”

Bai Qinghao clasped his hands together and rested them on his lap. He appeared noble and graceful. “There’s no need.”

“I’m doomed to die. Considering that I’m a member of the Bai family, won’t you grant me my final wish?”

Bai Qinghao smiled cruelly. “I like it best when the dead pass on with their grievances undealt and unresolved.” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Bai Jingrou teared up miserable. Her smile turned soft and beautiful. “It’s precisely because I understand that you’re ruthless and cruel. I also understand that you will never be interested in me. That is why I sent someone to assassinate you two years ago when you were at the border. A few days ago, I similarly arranged for assassins to hide in ambush and take your life. That is because I won’t allow Fang Xinxin to have the man I can’t have!”

“Is that so?” It wasn’t clear if Bai Qinghao believed in her. He felt that things weren’t as simple as she made it sound. Still, he asked with some interest. “Tell me more about it. A woman like you, how did you manage to contact and move those assassins?”

Bai Jingrou did not go into the details. She only responded with four words. “Money can do anything.”

Fang Xinxin narrowed her eyes. She felt that the person who had tried to murder Bai Qinghao wasn’t Bai Jingrou.

Those assassins were simply too capable. Money alone was unlikely to move them.

Bai Qinghao’s sharp gaze swept past Bai Jingrou. He appeared to see right through her. “You’re admitting to this crime voluntarily. Who are you trying to protect?”

“I was the one who did it. Forget it if you won’t believe me.” Bai Jingrou pursed her lips and fell silent.

Huang Zhishu suddenly brought her phone out and dialed Elder Bai Chongshan’s number. She hurriedly said, “Father, Jingrou is in trouble. You have to save her…”

Bai Chongshan’s voice could be heard from the other end. “Qinghao has already informed me that she attempted to murder someone for money. Her death will evoke no pity from me!”

“But Father, no matter what, she is still your adopted granddaughter. Over the years, she has been considerably obedient in the Bai family…”

“Obedient?” Bai Chongshan smiled coldly. “The fishes in the old mansion’s lake all died overnight because she poisoned them. The dogs also howled in the middle of the night because she injected them with a drug. Even Hao Changsheng, the male servant who attempted to stab me… though it appears that he died from a heart attack, in truth, he was hypnotised by Bai Jingrou. I’ve already located his apartment and found the medicine he was taking for his heart condition prior to his death. They were all replaced with something else.”
