Chapter 1996: Meeting of Pseudo-Rivals

"Mr. Owen...?" Bai Tingxue, who was lying on the bed, was startled when she saw Owen standing at the door, and her expression suddenly became a little subtle.

She didn't pay much attention to the knock on the door just now, thinking that the nurse was coming in to check, so she casually let someone in, but she didn't expect it to be Owen.

At this moment in the ward, one was the person she hadn't had time to let go, and the other was the person who was now pursuing her fiercely.

Bai Tingxue clearly did nothing wrong, but she still felt indescribable... embarrassment when encountering such a situation.

Especially at this time, the two men in the room were standing there, no one spoke, and Bai Tingxue's situation became more and more embarrassing.

A few seconds later, Bai Tingxue finally couldn't stand the overly weird atmosphere and broke the silence first: "Ahem, Chengze, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Owen from Crown. Mr. Owen, this is Ji Chengze, the president of Ji Group and Cheng Yi's brother."

Before Ji Chengze came, he heard that a foreigner saved Bai Tingxue, otherwise, Bai Tingxue would be more seriously injured than now.

Now it seems that it should be the person in front of him.

Thinking of this, Ji Chengze took the initiative to reach out and greet Owen: "Hello, I am Ji Chengze."

Owen certainly knew who the person in front of him was, and he knew that this man was the one Bai Tingxue had liked before.

Owen didn't change his expression, and reached out his hand to shake hands with Ji Chengze: "Hello, I am Gray Owen."

In just a few seconds, Bai Tingxue felt a little bit of tit-for-tat gunpowder.

Ji Chengze also noticed that the atmosphere in the room was wrong, and most importantly, he keenly perceived the deep hostility of the man in front of him.

That's right, it was hostility. Even if he hid it well, for a veteran like Ji Chengze who had been in the business world for many years, intuition was always more reliable than eyes.

This man was indeed hostile to him, and it was a very deep hostility.

Ji Chengze suddenly remembered that before he came, his unsuccessful brother seemed to have told him that someone was pursuing Bai Tingxue recently.

At that time, Ji Chengze didn't take it too seriously. He knew that Bai Tingxue liked him, but he didn't have any special feelings for her.

Not to mention anything else, just his cleanliness alone doomed him and Bai Tingxue to have no chance.

This time someone would pursue her, and if she could get her own happiness because of this, it might not be a bad thing for him.

So, this man was Bai Tingxue's pursuer. He knew that Bai Tingxue liked him and regarded him as a rival in love?

Or was he so defensive against all the men around Bai Tingxue and treated them equally?

Ji Chengze's mind was full of thoughts, but his face remained calm. After taking his hand back, he turned to Bai Tingxue and said, "I have something else to do, so I'll go back first. Have a good rest."

The main reason why Ji Chengze came here today was because several elders in the family asked him to visit Bai Tingxue as a friend.

Now that he has seen the people and brought condolences, he should leave early to avoid ruining other people's good things.

When Bai Tingxue heard what Ji Chengze said, she was slightly relieved and a little disappointed. Ji Chengze's current performance fully demonstrated that he really had no other thoughts about her.

Otherwise, he would not have known that Owen was interested in him but had no reaction, and even made room for them.

Owen saw the change in Bai Tingxue's expression, his eyes flickered slightly, and suddenly said, "Miss Bai is not convenient, let me see Mr. Ji off."
