Bamboo Horse Teases Green Plum 22 Unintentional Love War

  Heartless Love War

  The woman had a neat short haircut, and Pei Yue caught a glimpse of her profile, recognizing the person as Kuang Lina, the French diplomat she saw on TV last night.

  Pei Yue was not interested in being a third wheel at someone else's reunion, so she quietly shifted to the side and tried to slip away to the cafeteria to solve her own lunch.

  Unexpectedly, the man who should have been immersed in the joy of reunion, instead roughly pushed away the beauty's hand with one hand, and behind her back, as if he had grown eyes, stretched out his hand to firmly grasp the waist of the woman trying to slip away.

  "Xiao Yue, Lina said she wants to go eat together with you, don't you mind?" Bai Ming's face was as expressionless as ever, without a hint of smile or even surprise.

  Bai Yue glared at him with a failed attempt to sneak away, I don't care about anything! Does that mean if I say I mind, you'll let me off and allow me to go to the cafeteria for lunch by myself?

  Pei Yue silently cursed Bai Ming a hundred times in her heart, but on her face, she gave Kong Da Mei a brilliant smile.

  "Lina sister, long time no see, I am Pei Yue, Lina sister, should... still remember me?!"

  Pei Yue stretched out her hand, not because she was humble, but because she didn't have Bai Ming's thick skin. After all these years and changes in personnel, why should others necessarily remember her?

  "Xiao Yue, how did you end up here? Are you Bai Ming's secretary?"

  Qiu Lina was very well-behaved, and even though Bai Ming had pushed her away, she didn't get angry. Her eyes still held a hint of a smile, and among the three of them, it was actually her who showed the surprise and delight that one should have when reuniting with an old friend after a long time apart.

  "Cough, of course not, I'm just temporarily transferred here for work, and will leave after a few days."

  Pei Yue strongly denied any relationship with Bai Ming, neither in public nor in private, she didn't want to be caught red-handed by someone else's girlfriend.

  "Xiao Yue, aren't you hungry? Go find a place to eat quickly."

  Bai Ming impatiently interrupted the dull conversation between the two, finished speaking, and without looking at Kuang Lina, directly hugged Pei Yue and left.

  Pei Yue's face turned slightly red, and she tried to struggle free from Bai Ming's restraint with some embarrassment.

  Kuang Liru caught up with big strides, the smile in her eyes had disappeared, and she looked at Pei Yue sideways.

  Her piercing gaze made Pei Yue's hair stand on end, and she knew that she had to quickly draw a line with Bai Ming in order to extricate herself from this bizarre situation. If she wasn't mistaken, Bai Ming hadn't even exchanged a proper greeting with Kuang Lina until now.

  Qiu Lina's inquiring gaze filled Pei Yue with a sense of guilt.

  The current situation is like being the favored concubine of Mayor Bai, but now his legitimate wife has come to the scene and Mayor Bai doesn't take her seriously at all.

  Isn't this pouring oil on fire?

  Alright, even if she is a mistress, she's a mistress with great moral integrity and self-respect!

  "Mayor Bai, you and Sister Lina can go wherever you want, I've made an appointment with Xiao Bing to have lunch together in the cafeteria." Pei Yue pushed and wanted to slip away.

  However, Bai Ming didn't have the slightest sense of being caught "cheating" by his "big wife", not only did he not accept her kindness, but also pretended not to hear what she said and forcibly pulled and pushed her into the elevator.

  Three people stood in the elevator, and when the doors closed, Bai Ming finally had a chance to look at Kuang Lina with a straight face.

  Lina.

  "Hmm?!" Klara turned her head, her sparkling eyes blinked a few times with charm, and her face was instantly filled with sweet and sticky smiles.

  "Xiao Yue was slightly injured and can only eat light food. If you don't mind, just make do with eating together. If you want to eat something else, I'll have the driver take you there."

  Kuang Lina obviously didn't expect Bai Ming to say something that would embarrass her so much, and the smile on her face froze.

  "I don't mind, the patient comes first, right? Let's just decide according to Xiaoyue's taste."

  Qiu Lina pretended to be calm and composed, but it was unclear whether she was saying this for Pei Yue's benefit or to comfort herself.

  An awkward atmosphere lingered between the two women, but Bai Ming, who had sparked the tension, walked out of the elevator as if it was none of his business. Kuang Lina struck a girlfriend pose and walked to the passenger seat, wanting to get in, when Bai Ming called her back.

  "Lina, you sit in the back seat, Xiaoyue is carsick."

  "Little Yu's car? I've never heard of it before?"

  Several people grew up in the same yard, knowing each other's roots and bottoms. Bai Ming said this was clearly making trouble out of nothing. Now, Kuang Lina couldn't pretend anymore, her two slender eyebrows furrowed together, unhappy.

  "The medicine she took had severe side effects and often caused nausea." Bai Ming's reason left her speechless.

  So, Pei Yue was delighted to assume the posture of a patient and didn't say much along the way.

  The next meal was naturally extremely tasteless.

  Pei Yue deliberately remained silent, lowering his head to drink soup and eat, while Kuang Lina deliberately brought up the topic of what had happened between their families over the past few years with Bai Ming, discussing ambiguous topics that made people easily misunderstand. Bai Ming pretended to be calm, serving Pei Yue dishes while responding to her with "uh-huh...ah...".

  "Bai Ming, are you free this weekend? My parents asked us to go back and have a meal together."

  Qiu Li Na became increasingly unwilling, and when she said "go back together", she deliberately emphasized her tone.

  "Xiao Yue's injury won't heal for a while, I can't leave!" Bai Ming refused without leaving any room for compromise.

  Bai Yue was secretly going crazy, what's the point of this? You two want to meet with your parents or play tricks on each other, just don't drag me in as a scapegoat, okay?

  "Mayor Bai, you and Sister Lina have plans, go ahead and do them. My injury is a small matter, delaying your lifelong event is the big deal." Pei Yue wished she could package Bai Ming up with red ribbons and give him to Kuang Lina at that moment.

  Qiang Li Na thoughtfully glanced at Pei Yue, as if to distinguish whether her words were sincere or false.

  Bai Ming also raised his eyes and stared at Pei Yue, after a while, he said lightly.

  "Xiao Yue, you're thinking too much! Lina and I are just friends." These words were even more hurtful than slapping Lina in the face!

  It turned out that Bai Ming thought Pei Yue was jealous!

  Pei Yue let out a long sigh and decided not to say any more!

  What is meant by clarity is self-clarity. With this matter laid out before her eyes, saying anything more would only make it worse. Having made up her mind, Pei Yue didn't bother to care about what brilliant expression Ke Lina had on her face.

  Qian Li Na, apparently was struck by Bai Ming's solemn clarification, afterwards, she actually calmed down, quietly and pitifully like a wronged daughter-in-law, eating her rice in small mouthfuls.

  The three fell silent, when Bai Ming's phone suddenly rang.

  "Little Wang?"

  Bai Ming did not avoid it and directly answered the phone.

  "Mayor Bai, something big has gone wrong!" came Wang's anxious voice over the phone.

  "What's wrong?" Bai Ming asked in a low voice.

  "Mayor Bai, a set of photos of you and Attorney Pei passionately kissing in front of the villa is spreading wildly online. In just over ten minutes, the clicks have exceeded one million. Now, a large number of media reporters are gathering in front of the city government. What do you think should be done?"

  "This is none of your business, I'll be back in 10 minutes to deal with it!"

  Bai Ming calmly hung up the phone and looked up at the two women.

  "I have an urgent matter to attend to, the driver will come to pick you up later. Lina, tell the driver where you want to go directly, Xiaoyue needs to go to the hospital for a re-examination, and Fangfang will take you there."
