Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder!

Chapter 626 - 17: Little Sister-in-Law (17)

Haven’t we already torn off the masks?

Bai Siyang suddenly wrapped an arm around the puppet’s shoulder.

"Father, I’ve always spoiled my little sister because she’s family, but in truth, we aren’t related by blood at all. For an outsider, do you really want to hurt both mine and Shuning’s feelings?"

"The company’s interests are just small matters, Xiaojun really knows how to speak," Bai Siyang’s eyes were a bit fierce.

Bai He’s face turned increasingly unpleasant.

He suddenly stood up, "I’ve said before, the past is the past. Let’s not talk about it anymore. Since Li Shuning keeps bringing it up, fine, what do you want? Since you don’t listen to me, there’s no place for you in the Bai Family. You can divorce Si Yang, and I’ll compensate you accordingly for any losses."

Li Shuning’s heart felt heavier. It seemed like his protection of Bai Xiaojun was a bit excessive.

Originally, she thought that the things Bai Xiaojun did not only harmed her but also infringed on the company’s interests, and Bai He ought to have some idea of that.

Unexpectedly, it turned out like this.

Li Shuning glanced at Bai Siyang.

In the story, Bai Siyang was an exceptionally good husband, but in the end, due to his father’s interference, he didn’t do much for the original protagonist and almost broke off with the family.

At that time, the original protagonist was already dead, so what now? Now that she’s alive, what choice would Bai Siyang make?

"Dad, am I your real son or is she your real daughter? I never thought father would make this kind of decision. It’s true, her father died to save yours, but hasn’t our Bai Family treated her well enough? Do you have to wait until she ruins the family for you to be happy?"

At this moment, Bai Siyang was very calm, "I will not divorce Shuning."

Bai He was furious, "You ungrateful child, how dare you talk to me like this? If you refuse to divorce, you can sever your father-son relationship with me and get out of the Bai Group."

Zhang Juan was also somewhat incredulous as she looked at her husband, and then with some suspicion at Bai Xiaojun.

When this child was first brought home, her name shared a character with hers.

Since they intended to treat her as their own child, she had suggested changing her name at the time. After all, having the same character in both their names as mother and daughter was not quite right, but her husband was adamant and wouldn’t change it.

Now, he even quarreled with their son for this child and spoke about cutting family ties.

Is this child that important?

"Old He, what on earth do you mean?"

"Shut up, if you speak one more word, get out with your son," Bai He, at this point, was like an enraged mad dog, lashing out at anyone.

Zhang Juan couldn’t help but step back a few steps, thinking Bai He must be crazy?

The villa was bought by Bai He when Bai Siyang and Li Shuning married.

The couple packed their things and left with Zhang Juan.

All three of them found it hard to believe.

Yet, back at the villa, after the three left, Bai He calmed down.

Sitting there, he panted, a bit regretful for being overly intense.

But seeing Bai Xiaojun’s grateful look, he calmed down again.

Yes, who else would he protect if not this child?

Before Bai Siyang entered the Bai Group, he had already started other businesses.

He owned quite a few properties under his name.

Bai Siyang and Li Shuning went to tidy up, while Zhang Juan, after putting down her luggage, returned to the old residence to pack things.

She had been married to Bai He for many years, and no matter how she couldn’t figure out why Bai He treated his own children like that, and she couldn’t accept it either.

If that’s the case, she might as well stay with her son and daughter-in-law for a while.

This matter, after all, needs to be communicated with the Li Family.

As expected, Bai He really did announce cutting off father-son relations with Bai Siyang.

It was at this time that the Li Family started to put pressure on Bai He.

You may have kicked your son and wife out, but Bai Xiaojun’s attempt to harm Li Shuning is a fact, is it not?

In the end, Bai He paid a large sum of money to Li Shuning.

Bai Siyang was very familiar with the mode of the Bai Group and all its business dealings.

He had previously dabbled in small ventures and had established his own company, although it was always left in the hands of trusted aides due to Bai Group.

Now that he’s left Bai Group, he went straight back to that company.

After all, Bai He hadn’t been in charge of Bai Group for many years.

Suddenly taking over, he found it hard to keep up with many things, but he wasn’t concerned. Isn’t that what subordinates are for?

The main thing is, after idling for so long, he was somewhat unwilling to let go.

Plus, Bai Xiaojun had studied business management, and with her help, it took a load off his mind.

The fact that Bai Xiaojun wasn’t a real child of the Bai Family also spread.

Rumors about Bai He kicking out his wife, son, and daughter-in-law for an adopted daughter spread like wildfire.

What kind of relationship could drive Bai He to make such a decision?

Speculations were rampant.

But none were pleasant to hear.

Zhang Juan was fuming.

Li Shuning handed all the money Bai He compensated to Bai Siyang, knowing he would probably need it.

Months passed, and everyone gradually calmed down.

One day, Bai Siyang and the puppet decided to accompany Zhang Juan to eat out.

It was Zhang Juan’s birthday, after all. No matter what happened before, she was the one who got hurt the most, so the couple wanted to celebrate properly.

They meticulously chose a restaurant, found a private room, and ordered Zhang Juan’s favorite dishes.

Zhang Juan felt bittersweet. At her age, she never thought she’d become estranged from her husband, but she took comfort in having her son with her, and an excellent daughter-in-law.

Over time, she grew increasingly fond of her daughter-in-law.

Not only could she cook wonderfully, but she also had a good temperament. Only Bai He, blind as he was, could favor that Bai Xiaojun.

"Mom, happy birthday."

"Mom, happy birthday."

The couple presented their carefully prepared birthday gifts.

Bai Siyang gifted a scarf.

The puppet gave a brooch.

The atmosphere among the three was quite harmonious.

But Li Shuning paused for a moment, not expecting such coincidence.

Out of habit, she let her spiritual power spread out while outside, not too far, just around herself, to notice any unusual things.

There in the corridor, "familiar faces" walked by.

Tsk, those two holding hands, they didn’t look like father and daughter at all.

It was indeed a coincidence; Bai He and Bai Xiaojun chose the same restaurant and were dining in the adjacent private room.

Li Shuning glanced at Zhang Juan. She wondered, after having finally adjusted her emotions, would seeing them disrupt it all again?
