Chapter 250: Chapter 243: Changing Faces

On the car ride back, Bai Yiran received a call from Mrs. Zheng, who was crying pitifully on the other end, begging Bai Yiran to give Zheng Fen another chance. She promised to take responsibility for Zheng Fen’s actions.

Hearing Mrs. Zheng cry made Bai Yiran feel a pang in her heart. However, thinking about Zheng Fen’s previous arrogant attitude, Bai Yiran didn’t want to let her off easily. Someone like her wouldn’t learn from her mistakes unless she received a lesson.

Bai Yiran heartlessly rejected Mrs. Zheng’s request for a private settlement and said that everything would be handled by the lawyer. As soon as Bai Yiran refused, Mrs. Zheng’s attitude changed, leading to a barrage of curses before Bai Yiran hung up the phone.

Wang Hai drove Bai Yiran directly to Leng Yichen as she couldn’t return to her apartment, and she didn’t intend to take back the clothes there. The only luggage Bai Yiran could use for her regular change of clothes was what Leng Yichen had moved to his place in advance.

Bai Yiran made a list for Wang Hai of the more important items in her apartment, asking him to retrieve them for her. As for the compensation matters, she handed them over to the lawyer to handle.

Exhausted from the journey and the incident with Zheng Fen, Bai Yiran felt extremely tired and quickly took a shower before going to sleep.

A dreamless night...

In the morning, Bai Yiran received a call from Leng Yichen, letting her know he had safely arrived at his destination.

"I heard from Wang Hai about what happened. Are you okay?" Leng Yichen’s voice was tinged with guilt and concern.

"I’m fine. Brother Hai has already helped me handle it, but I definitely can’t return to the apartment."

"Did you actually want to go back there?" Leng Yichen’s voice suddenly turned cold.

This man is always like this... Bai Yiran sighed, "I have to get my stuff back, right? But I’ve already asked Brother Hai to retrieve them for me. I definitely don’t want to set foot in that place again."

Thinking about the mess in the apartment made Bai Yiran feel uncomfortable.

Leng Yichen realized his tone had been a bit too harsh, and awkwardly softened his voice, "Don’t rush to work just yet. Rest at home for a few days. Xiao Lang’s situation still needs some dealing with, but I’ll be back as soon as possible."

"Mm, alright, I understand."

"And also!" Just when Bai Yiran thought the call was about to end, Leng Yichen suddenly changed the subject, "Remember you now have a husband, be mindful of who you meet and who you don’t!"

What did Leng Yichen mean by that? Bai Yiran raised an eyebrow, repressing the urge to hang up.

"And also!"

"Are you done yet?"

"I miss you very much..."

Leng Yichen’s soft words slipped into Bai Yiran’s ears, making them and her face flush with heat, so much so that even after hanging up, her face remained warm.

All of this was just because of Leng Yichen’s simple "I miss you very much."

Sister Liu saw that Bai Yiran was truly moving back this time and couldn’t help but get tearfully chatty, then joyfully started preparing breakfast for her. She had witnessed the relationship between Leng Yichen and Bai Yiran, and although she didn’t know the actual reason they broke up, seeing them reconcile now made her happier than anyone else.

Bai Yiran hadn’t even finished her breakfast when Wang Hai came in with the things from Bai Yiran’s list, along with some unfortunate news.
