Chapter 13: Xiao Kelian threatened by "Father," Chu Zong eavesdrops in the restroom.

"Dad, I really didn't do it, I didn't tell him. I truly don't know, please don't touch mom. Didn't she just have surgery recently and need to rest? I really don't know, it really wasn't me..."

"Don't call me dad. You know very well if it was you who did it. Jinghe is almost the same as him now. Just as things were about to settle, he suddenly changed his attitude. Do you dare to say that it wasn't you who influenced him with your sweet talk?"

The voice of the middle-aged man was still loud over the phone, filled with frustration as if he wished he could tear Bai Yu'an apart. The biggest stain in his life was having Bai Yu'an as his son. Who knew how this happened so conveniently, truly unlucky...

Having raised him for so many years, he finally had the chance to be useful, but he couldn't even handle such a small matter.

Chu Yujia's wealth has long been coveted by him. His original intention was to use a cunning plan to marry his youngest son off to her. However, it turned out that the little rascal somehow heard some rumors and became extremely fearful of Chu Yujia, as if he had seen a ghost. He was even more reluctant to marry a man, fearing being ridiculed. As a result, he ended up marrying Bai Yu'an instead.

Who would have thought, the disobedient youngest son has regretted again!

"That... Mr. Qin, how is my mother? Can I go and see her? I've been missing her lately..." The young man's voice was not loud, but rather weak, evoking a sense of pity.

However, the middle-aged man didn't buy it and yelled loudly on the other end of the phone, "Your mother is fine here, so you should worry about yourself! I've said it before, find a way to reconcile Jinghe and Chuyu, otherwise... your mother in the hospital won't have it so easy!"

"Doot-doot-doot—" The phone was hung up, leaving only the mechanical echo. Bai Yu'an leaned against the door, slowly sliding down until he curled up into a ball. The tips of his fingers, gripping the phone, turned pale, and a low sob escaped from his throat.

Just as things were about to improve, why...why is this happening again? After all the difficulty in longing for this moment, do I now have to push it away with my own hands?

But... if he doesn't push, then what should his mother do? The people there absolutely refuse to tell him the location. Without knowing the place, where can he find someone? Right now, he can only be at the mercy of others. What should he do, what should he do...

Finally, perhaps tired from crying, Bai Yu'an wiped her face and stood up, walking out.

Standing in front of the mirror, looking at the reflection of oneself, the eyes were red with bloodshot veins. Last night, I only returned to the guest room in the late hours of the night. I waited for a long time, but Chu Yucai was still awake, so it took quite a while.

My hair has grown quite long, it should be time for a haircut. It's hanging down over my eyes, giving the appearance of being lackluster and not at all like a performer.

Bai Yu'an let out a sigh, swept his hair up, revealing his smooth forehead. Then he rinsed his face with water and walked out.

After he left, the door of one of the cubicles in the bathroom suddenly opened. A man dressed in a suit walked out and extinguished his cigarette in the trash bin next to the sink. He stared in the direction of the door, deep in thought, and took out his phone.

"Wang Ze, do you still remember Qin Jinghe? Investigate and find out what's been happening recently in the Qin family. Also, find out where Yu An's mother is. Begin your search from the Qin family. If you can't find any information, then go look for Zheng Xie. He'll help you."

The man held a mobile phone in one hand and gently touched the faucet in front of the washbasin with the other hand.

He thought to himself, "Just now, he used it, right? He cried so sorrowfully. Did he cry like this in the previous life as well? Hearing that noise, he felt his heart ache so much, as if he was about to suffocate. He let out a heavy sigh, his mind just preoccupied with thoughts of Bai Yu'an."

Why won't he tell me, even though he has been bullied to such an extent? Is it because he's afraid...

Chu Yu lowered his eyes. He pondered how Bai Yu'an often practiced on the east side of this floor, so he had sealed off the restroom on the east side.

I planned to come down and see him, but when my nicotine craving hit, I went into the restroom and lit a cigarette, thinking that I would finish smoking before going to find him. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. He hadn't even come to find him yet, but he bumped into him first. The moment he answered the phone and spoke the first sentence, he knew something was wrong with him.

In fact, he had been extremely anxious in his heart long ago, but he still took care of the other party's self-esteem and didn't leave until the end.

He wanted to personally accompany him through all his sorrow, his pain, his happiness, and his smiles...

Reincarnating for a lifetime, what is it all for? Isn't it just to take good care of him? If not, then why bother to be reborn?

Chu Yu was restless, so he lit another cigarette before leaving. Instead of going elsewhere, he directly turned to Bai Yu'an's practice room. He knew that artists were often exhausted, and if it weren't for his own liking, he wouldn't have allowed him to do it.

But since he liked it so much, how could he bear to discourage his enthusiasm? He could only secretly do more things to support him.

There was only Bai Yuan in the self-study room, Chu Yu did not go in, but stood outside quietly watching. Bai Yuan's figure was slender and his appearance was also good-looking, which matched him perfectly on the bed.

Although he has strong desires, he is not incapable of self-restraint. He has never messed around outside. From beginning to end, there has only been Bai Yu'an as his marriage partner.

However, looking back now, my past self didn't understand anything at the time. I must have caused a lot of trouble for Bai Yu'an. If there is still a chance, he will definitely not act recklessly like that again.

"Why are you here, General Chu?" A man's voice sounded from behind. Chu Yu turned around and saw who it was.

It's Wang Liang, the well-known male manager of the company. Many film kings and queens in their company were brought up by him. First, there was Song Ningyuan, and now there is Yang Shulei. Everyone in the industry knows them as the top senior siblings, and those young actors have to call them seniors.

"No problem, come and take a look at this little one." Without even shifting his gaze, Chu Yu's attention immediately fixated on a figure not far away as soon as he finished speaking. It was as if he was addicted, greedily staring at that person's silhouette.

Wang Liang's face showed a suspicious expression, and he also followed the gaze to see the back view of Bai Yu'an. He smiled, "What's this? When did Manager Chu start having a liking for this kind of person? Has the previous one disappeared?"

Chu Yu's expression changed rapidly. "In the past, it was my poor judgment. I couldn't recognize the person and mistook a stone for a pearl. But now, this..." Chu Yu spoke until here, laughing without saying anything further.

Wang Liang looked at Bai Yu'an with a slightly scrutinizing gaze. "Oh? Is that so?"

Chu Yuxiao smiled, his eyes burning with intensity. "My preferences have never changed; it's just that you all haven't noticed. You say he's just a small artist? Then I will make sure he becomes the king of the silver screen." This was his wife, and he dared anyone to underestimate her.

Wang Liang felt a twitch in the corner of his mouth and a sense of foreboding in his heart. Before he could even speak, Chu Yu said, "This little guy will be under your care from now on. But let's make it clear, if anything happens to him, I will come looking for you first."

Wang Liang widened his eyes, about to speak, when Chu Yu continued, "Not wearing it? Deduct your monthly salary. Wear it and your salary will double. Take your pick."

"Dai dai dai, if I am the one leading, wouldn't it be enough? General Chu, whatever you say is always right."

Wang Liang's face was ingratiating, but when he turned his head, it darkened.

In his heart, he cursed silently: "If it weren't for the money, I wouldn't act so cowardly."

This guy just hit the nail on his weakness. He knows that he loves money, yet still uses this to tempt him. If they weren't friends, I'm afraid they would have torn each other apart a long time ago.

Chu Yuxiao smiled faintly and glanced at him before pushing the door open and walking into the practice room.
