Chapter 154: Chapter 148: Moving Quickly

Regarding the Bai Family’s situation, Leng Yichen finally gave Bai Yiran two solutions.

First, declare bankruptcy, and lay off all employees, with severance and medical expenses for the burn victims covered by Leng Yichen.

Second, transfer the shares in Bai Yiran’s hands to Leng Yichen, with Leng Yichen taking over the Bai Family.

After thinking it over, Bai Yiran agreed to the second plan. She just didn’t expect that after all the twists and turns, the Bai Family would end up in Leng Yichen’s hands.

If that was the case, then why did Leng Yichen push her forward in the first place? Wouldn’t it have been easier for Leng Yichen to directly take over when Bai Hongguang decided to transfer the shares?

Leng Yichen did not answer Bai Yiran’s question, but swiftly transferred all the shares of the Bai Family in Yiran’s hands to his name.

From then on, the Bai Family was officially acquired by Huamei, becoming a subsidiary of Huamei.

Strangely, the two burn victims’ families had not caused any more trouble since the last time; they vanished as if they never existed!

The happiest about this result were the Bai Family’s employees and Bai Qianyu. After all, having Leng Yichen meant the Bai Family had a strong support. As the second largest shareholder of the Bai Family, Bai Qianyu also had more opportunities to meet Leng Yichen.

Bai Yiran resigned as the CEO after not holding the position very long. She wasn’t particularly sad about it; instead, she felt relieved.

After all, the Bai Family previously weighed on her like a mountain, a responsibility she had to bear. Now, this mountain was on the shoulders of Leng Yichen, like a Heavenly God, which was like a liberation for her from the heavy burden.

Leng Yichen’s absences from home became more frequent. Initially, Bai Yiran would ask him, but every inquiry ended in arguments, so over time, Bai Yiran stopped asking.

Because the answer she got every time was that he was very busy!

Bai Yiran realized there was a problem between her and Leng Yichen, but she didn’t know what it was. She wanted to talk calmly with Leng Yichen, but he didn’t even give her the time.

At the dinner table, Sister Liu had set out dinner. Bai Yiran glanced at the time, guessing that Leng Yichen wouldn’t come back for dinner tonight either.

"Forget it, let’s not wait for him..." Bai Yiran said heavily, picking up chopsticks to eat.

"Sigh..."

Sister Liu sighed softly. Bai Yiran sniffed, pretended not to hear, and picked up a piece of braised pork. Lately, Sister Liu knew that Yiran’s mood was poor, so she cooked dishes that Yiran liked.

This Maoshi Braised Pork was Bai Yiran’s favorite.

Just as the meat reached her mouth, Bai Yiran’s stomach churned. For some reason, the braised pork she once loved now looked excessively greasy, making her feel nauseated just looking at it.

Sister Liu saw Bai Yiran frowning and asked, "What’s wrong? Don’t feel like eating?"

"No..." Bai Yiran seamlessly put the meat back into the bowl, "I forgot to drink soup before the meal. I’ve gotten a bit chubby lately, so I want to drink some soup to fill up first."

Bai Yiran quickly made up an excuse; the braised pork was Sister Liu’s hard work for her, and she couldn’t show any aversion.

Sister Liu chuckled, "You’re not chubby at all, and besides, it’s good to have some weight, it’s better for childbearing!"

Embarrassed, Bai Yiran blushed and lowered her head to serve the soup.

Just then, the house phone rang, and Sister Liu went to answer it; it was a call from Leng Yichen.

"Yiran, it’s a call from the Mister." Sister Liu brought the wireless phone to Bai Yiran, winking at her,

Bai Yiran took the phone, "What’s up?"

Leng Yichen’s voice on the other end was unusually cold, "I have sent a car to pick you up, quickly get ready and dress up to accompany me to a social gathering."

This was the first time Leng Yichen requested Bai Yiran to accompany him to such an event, "I don’t have an appropriate evening dress."

"I’ve already prepared one for you; it’s with the car that’s coming to pick you up."

Bai Yiran paused, "Alright, I see."

The car arrived just after Bai Yiran hung up, and Leng Yichen had prepared a black backless gown for her. Bai Yiran’s back curve was stunning, something Leng Yichen had praised countless times when they were intimate.

Looking at this dress, Yiran wondered if Leng Yichen had chosen it to indulge his own peculiar tastes.

Time was pressing, so Yiran quickly applied her makeup and went with the car.

The vehicle drove all the way to a high-end private club, a venue specifically for the social gatherings of the upper class. It was splendidly luxurious and noble.

Wearing the backless gown, Bai Yiran became the center of attention as soon as she entered the hall, and she immediately spotted Leng Yichen, along with the young woman intimately beside him...

Wu Lin!
