The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

Chapter 747: Just the Point of the Excuse

The man who followed Bai Xi was none other than her nominal fiancé Zhao Qian. What was even more surprising was that there was an acquaintance of Yang Dongxu beside Zhao Qian, Zhu Baicheng, who was obviously much older than Zhao Qian, but had a smiling face and a servile look, not at all elegant as usual.

Yang Dongxu suddenly thought of the identity of Bai Xi's fiancé that Li Yihang introduced to him after the conflict at the Yanjing auction. At that time, the two chatted and Li Yihang joked that the son of the Zhao family was transferred to Hangzhou and became his parent official and asked him if he was afraid.

Zhao Qian's previous position was in the south and he came from the same place as Zhu Baicheng, but Zhu Baicheng was in the city, while Zhao Qian was in charge of a county town below and did a great job. I don't know how the two of them got together. This world is really not big.

But now it seems that this matter is not the focus of his attention. The focus is that he actually flirted with Bai Xi in front of her fiancé.

Although he didn't really want to tease Bai Xi, it was just because Bai Xi had been sticking to him for a while, especially since she and Bai Feng had been getting close and started to squeeze Huaxia Telecom's market.

So when he suddenly saw Bai Xi in Hangzhou, she looked very happy to see him. Yang Dongxu was a little annoyed so he teased her, but who knew that things would go so fast and cause this embarrassing situation.

But Bai Qian, as the person involved, didn't seem to feel awkward at all, and even had a very happy feeling: "Let me introduce you, Yang Dongxu, Mr. Yang, Zhao Qian, District Chief Zhao, and District Chief Zhao's friend Zhu Baicheng, who is this?"

"My girlfriend Yu Yi." Yang Dongxu took over the conversation and stood up and stretched out his hand: "I have heard that Director Zhao has been transferred to Hangzhou to be the parent official. Please take care of me if there is anything in the future."

"You're welcome. Hangzhou's economic development needs a lot of support from businessmen like Boss Yang. Take care of each other in the future." Zhao Qian smiled and said: "I just didn't expect that the most beautiful flower in Hangzhou's education sector was picked by Boss Yang. If this news is announced, I don't know how many men who admire Manager Yu will be heartbroken."

"District Chief Zhao and Ms. Bai are also a perfect match. If you get married, don't despise me for asking for a glass of wine." Yang Dongxu and Zhao Qian shook hands, both of them with seemingly enthusiastic smiles on their faces, and praised each other's female companions. It seems that the first impression of each other seems to be very good. The atmosphere just now seems to be just an illusion.

"Then thank you for your blessing first. I won't disturb you here. The guests are still waiting over there. Let's sit together alone if we have the chance in the future." Zhao Qian said.

"Okay, I am an idle person and I am waiting for District Chief Zhao to come at any time." Yang Dongxu was very humble and showed his respect for District Chief Zhao, the parent official.

Bai Xi, who was originally smiling like a weasel who stole a chicken, paused at this time. Especially when Yang Dongxu said that Yu Yi was his girlfriend, she couldn't help but look at Yu Yi more.

Then her complexion quickly returned to normal, and she smiled at Yang Dongxu without revealing her inner thoughts: "Young Master Yang, eat slowly, I won't disturb you."

"What is the relationship between them?" Looking at the backs of Bai Xi and others leaving, Yu Yi had some doubts on her face, and the woman's keen intuition told her. Bai Xi's eyes looking at her just now were not just surprised that Yang Dongxu said she was his girlfriend, but seemed to have something else.

"Bai Xi is District Chief Zhao's fiancée." Yang Dongxu said.

"You're stealing someone's girlfriend?"

Cough cough cough. Sitting down and taking a bite of food to calm down, Yang Dongxu almost spit out the food in his mouth. He coughed violently and quickly picked up the water cup next to him to drink some water to calm down.

"What are you thinking about? Am I that kind of person?" Yang Dongxu glared at Yu Yi.

Yu Yi nodded, looking like you are that kind of person, and Yang Dongxu was so angry that he almost hit her forehead with the chopsticks in his hand.

"Besides, why were you so nervous just now and said I was your girlfriend?" Yu Yi stared at Yang Dongxu. If she had experienced the influence of the later Internet culture, she would definitely say at this time, "Explanation is covering up, and covering up is the beginning of a mistake."

"Where am I nervous?"

"If you are not nervous, why do you say I am your girlfriend?" Yu Yi insisted on this point, obviously she still remembered the grudge after being teased by Yang Dongxu just now.

"Oh my god!" Yang Dongxu didn't know how to explain for a moment: "Are you going to let me eat?"

"You're angry out of shame?" Yu Yi had an expression that I knew it would be like this, and at the same time, she looked at Yang Dongxu with disgust, and he actually became a third party.

"Hey, I said you've had enough, there should be a limit to joking. Didn't you see that District Chief Zhao is obviously a jealous person? I just said something casually, and his expression was like that. If I didn't say you are my girlfriend, he would definitely misunderstand it more."

"It seems that your mind is a little narrow." Thinking of Zhao Qian's expression after hearing Yang Dongxu's words, Yu Yi nodded.

Yang Dongxu was speechless and didn't want to say anything else. Women and men are not on the same channel at all. If you still look calm when your fiancée is teased by someone, is this a man? So what does this have to do with narrow-mindedness?

"Is he that Young Master Yang?" Zhao Qian, who came to the box, looked a little serious as always, but anyone could feel that he was in a bad state at this time.

Zhu Baicheng, who was originally sitting down, quickly pulled the female secretary who was accompanying him and the two of them stood up and left the box, blocking the waiter who was preparing to serve the dishes outside.

"Yes, didn't I introduce you just now?" Bai Xi said calmly.

"You are my fiancée!" Zhao Qian's face flushed unnaturally.

"It's just that the elders said that the two of us are of similar age, and we are both old enough to get in touch with each other to see if we have decided on a relationship. Besides, when my brother got into trouble before, you didn't say this when I went to find you." Bai Xi's tone was still indifferent.

What she said was undoubtedly a wording. The elders allowed the younger generation to get in touch with the political marriage, but it didn't mean that she was not a fiancée without an engagement banquet.

Moreover, even if this engagement banquet was not held, in the eyes of outsiders, Bai Xi had already been labeled as the Zhao family's fiancée and was Zhao Qian's woman. How could a man tolerate his woman flirting with other men? And there were rumors that made him glow.

But although Zhao Qian was angry in his heart, Bai Xi's words made him unable to vent his anger. The Zhao family did not do a good job in Bai An's affairs before, and they did not help him. For his promotion arrangement, some adjustments to the family's plans, and the move to avoid suspicion in the future, there was even a rumor that they wanted to cancel the engagement and choose another one.

Now that Bai An has been released from prison, the Bai family has not only escaped from the quagmire, but has also made further progress. The company that was originally half-dead has successfully transformed, and instantly turned from a minus to a plus.

So the gossip that the Zhao family said they wanted to cancel the engagement suddenly disappeared. Even if Bai Xi's reputation seems a bit bad in order to help her brother get out of trouble, political marriage resources are the first priority, which is not important at all whether there are some flaws on both men and women.

Zhao Qian stared at Bai Xi's chest rising and falling several times and got up and left directly. To be honest, the appearance of the woman in front of him met all his requirements for his wife, whether it was her appearance or her temperament.

But he, who had been arranged by his family to work his way up from the grassroots level since he was a child, was most resistant to things that were beyond his plan.

He was so upset by Bai An's accident before, and the attitude of Bai Xi or the Bai family towards this marriage was still the same. And he suddenly realized that, apart from the skin that all men wanted, Bai Xi's character was not his mate selection standard.

Even if political marriage does not require feelings, he needs a good wife and mother who can stay at home, and Bai Xi is obviously not a woman who revolves around the stove and children.

So even if there was a pent-up anger in his heart that men could not bear, Zhao Qian still made the most favorable choice for himself, and it was clean and neat without dragging, because he had more than one choice. The marriage between the Zhao family and the Bai family was a high-end marriage for the Bai family.

The box fell into silence, and Bai Xi's expression was no longer calm, but kept changing back and forth, and there was still water in her eyes, but in the end she gritted her teeth to drive it away, and she returned to the temperament and expression of the Queen of Bai again.

"Waiter, serve the food." Bai Xi called out to the door calmly, without any tremor in her voice.

No alcohol was consumed during the meal, so after the meal Yang Dongxu drove Yu Yi back. He was speechless about the other side of Yu Yi that had never been seen since Bai Xi left, who had become gossipy.

Fortunately, the relationship between the two seemed to have taken a step forward from classmates, colleagues, and friends. But the two were not in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, so after teasing Yang Dongxu, Yu Yi stopped when she saw that it was good. This made the atmosphere of the meal pretty good, so Yang Dongxu was in the mood to send her home.

"Why do you live here?" After sending Yu Yi to her doorstep, Yang Dongxu was a little surprised to see that it was pitch black and there were not even a few street lights on.

If he remembered correctly, the office directly arranged accommodation for the working members, and even the school approved several dormitories for the teaching teachers who needed to stay in Hangzhou for a short time and wait for arrangements.

"Don't you always say that if you have extra money, you are a fool to buy more houses and put them in the bank? My salary can't afford a house in the city center, nor can I buy a new house, so I can only buy a second-hand house like this. I just don't know when I can wait for the demolition you mentioned, and then become a millionaire all of a sudden."

"Really?" Yang Dongxu looked surprised. He really didn't realize that Yu Yi, who usually treated people and made people feel very calm and a little bit indifferent to the world, had such a decisiveness.

"Do you want to get in and sit?" Yu Yi pushed open the car door.

"Are you afraid of going home in the dark?" Yang Dongxu said.
