Chapter 1241: You Don't Even Qualify to be a Vase
Bai Yufei was not fooled by Qin Yiyan's words.
She tilted her head up and said with feigned naivety, "I just see that you are so outstanding, Brother, and I don't want your marriage to be imperfect. What about you, Brother? Don't you feel unreconciled?"
"Unreconciled?"
Bai Yufei nodded quickly, her voice filled with seduction: "The wife Brother expected must be gentle and kind, good to others, and even more considerate to family. But in the end... you married someone like Liu Xin'ai, who is unsatisfactory in every way!"
Bai Yufei was truly full of disdain for Liu Xin'ai.
She hoped her brother felt the same.
But...
Qin Yiyan was silent for a moment.
Then he said, "Liu Xin'ai isn't as unbearable as you think; she has her merits."
"But her merits aren't used on you, Brother!"
Bai Yufei's words were truly disheartening.
Qin Yiyan frowned as he listened.
But to save face, he had to say, "Marriage isn't everything in life; as long as it looks perfect, that's enough."
"But one knows the warmth and coldness of a relationship for oneself; wouldn't you feel uncomfortable in your heart, Brother?"
Bai Yufei's hypothesis was ulterior.
And in Qin Yiyan's heart... he was indeed uncomfortable!
Liu Xin'ai had caused so many things, wasting quite a bit of Qin Yiyan's energy.
And those friends of hers with their various personalities were also one more troublesome than the next!
But... who told him to choose Liu Xin'ai?
Since she had already become his wife, then being a little troublesome was something that couldn't be helped.
Qin Yiyan was willing to endure it.
Thinking this way, Qin Yiyan said calmly, "Between a husband and wife, one side always has to be more tolerant."
"Brother, you are truly magnanimous, but... the other party has to be worth it!"
That Liu Xin'ai...
She simply didn't deserve it!
Bai Yufei closed her eyes.
Then she lifted
her head to look at Liu Xin'ai's bedroom.
Without a doubt, in this dispute, Brother had chosen to forgive her again!
Heh, why must he always forgive that woman?
Is it only when she dies that she will completely disappear from Brother's life!?
Wait a minute...
Die...
As Bai Yufei thought of something, her eyes gradually became frantic!
"Fei'er?"
Qin Yiyan's voice brought Bai Yufei back to reality.
She quickly put on an innocent look, tilted her head, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Qin Yiyan said with some concern, "Just now, your complexion didn't look very good; what were you thinking about?"
"It's just... I'm angry on your behalf, Brother."
"I've already told you, this is a matter between us husband and wife; you don't need to intervene, and you certainly don't need to be angry for me. By the way, there's a business banquet coming up; you should go, relax, and see if you can make some new friends."
Bai Yufei was not interested in those activities at all.
She opened her mouth to refuse.
But as the refusal reached her lips, Bai Yufei suddenly looked up and asked, "Am I going alone?"
"Worried about being bored? You can have Lin Ze accompany you."
"But I want you to accompany me, Brother. You are more familiar with those people in the business world; wouldn't it be better if you introduced them to me?"
Qin Yiyan hesitated slightly.
But thinking that Bai Yufei had been cooped up at home these days and was unhappy because of their marital affairs...
Qin Yiyan changed his mind and said with a smile, "Alright."
This answer made Bai Yufei immediately beam with a Tiantian smile.
Her smile was very satisfied.
It seemed that a small thing could make her happy for a long time.
But the truth...
Was not so!
The business banquet Qin Yiyan mentioned was a top-tier event in the pharmaceutical field.
If
Liu Xin'ai had not experienced those setbacks, with her ability, she would definitely have been invited.
And now...
Bai Yufei had taken her spot.
She even held Qin Yiyan's arm and appeared before everyone with a smile.
Bai Yufei wanted to take this opportunity to gain attention and let outsiders know her status in Qin Yiyan's heart.
However, after arriving at the venue, Qin Yiyan kept exchanging pleasantries with others.
This made Bai Yufei feel neglected.
Standing there alone was somewhat boring.
And it made her look like an outsider.
So Bai Yufei took the initiative to find someone to talk to.
But the guests who came here today were all involved in the medical and pharmaceutical fields, and the topics they discussed were very professional.
Bai Yufei couldn't keep up with the conversation at all and could only stand there smiling foolishly.
After chatting for a few sentences like this, the person talking to Bai Yufei found an excuse to leave.
This made Bai Yufei depressed, and furthermore, she felt that the person who left was secretly gossiping about her behind her back...
Really, if she had known, she wouldn't have come here!
This wasn't relaxing at all; it was clearly adding to her frustration!!
Bai Yufei was furious and turned around, wanting to find Qin Yiyan and have him accompany her home.
But just as she turned around.
She unexpectedly saw...
The figure of Xu Xiaoxiao!?
After parting ways with Liu Xin'ai at the airport last time, Xu Xiaoxiao received a call from her school leadership, telling her to prepare immediately to attend a very important forum.
Because the notice was so sudden, Xu Xiaoxiao had to prepare materials and was busy until she was dizzy.
Plus, with Qin Yiyan sending her a message in Liu Xin'ai's tone to say she was safe, Xu Xiaoxiao naturally assumed her good friend was already enjoying her freedom.
After attending the forum, Xu Xiaoxiao could have had three days of rest.
But the leadership temporarily assigned her a task to come and attend this banquet,
to exchange information about the content of the forum.
Xu Xiaoxiao was depressed.
However, the leadership promised her that once she completed today's task, they would give her a week's vacation.
A week...
This temptation was too great; for the sake of the vacation, Xu Xiaoxiao endured it.
She was even thinking that she could use the vacation to go find Liu Xin'ai!
However...
Xu Xiaoxiao saw Qin Yiyan and Bai Yufei!
That Bai Yufei even deliberately blocked her path.
She said arrogantly, "The quality of this banquet is really low, letting just anyone in!"
Xu Xiaoxiao wouldn't let this woman step all over her!
Immediately, she said with a face full of smiles, "Isn't that so? Some people don't understand anything but still come to join in the fun; they really think they are some kind of vase."
"You... you tomboy, you don't even have the qualifications to be a vase!"
"I am so thankful that I don't have those qualifications; that is what allows me to use my brain to communicate with others, instead of holding a wine glass, smiling foolishly, and saying incoherent things."
Every word of Xu Xiaoxiao's was an insinuation against Bai Yufei.
Without any restraint!
Bai Yufei naturally understood her insinuations!
She was so angry her face turned pale.
But suddenly, Bai Yufei stopped being angry.
Instead, she looked at Xu Xiaoxiao with a cold sneer and asked, "Do you think you are very smart and very capable?"
"Not bad, just a hundred times smarter than you."
Bai Yufei automatically ignored that comparison.
Then she leaned close to Xu Xiaoxiao's ear and said in a vicious tone, "But you don't even know that your good friend has been locked up; what kind of smart is that!?"
Bai Yufei guessed that Xu Xiaoxiao did not know about Liu Xin'ai's situation.
Now, looking at her expression...
Xu Xiaoxiao really didn't know anything!
After a brief moment of shock, Xu Xiaoxiao's expression changed, and she demanded, "What happened to Xin'ai?"

"You really don't know? Then go ask Jiang Baobao; she knows everything."
