Chapter 422 Bai Ye's Apology
The news of Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu's divorce quickly dominated the headlines of various social networks within an hour.
People don't usually focus on just his company and background when it comes to someone like Li Chenxu. Rather than those serious matters, ordinary people are more interested in the kind of life people like Li Chenxu lead and prefer things that are more private.
Now that Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu are getting a divorce, everyone is naturally paying attention.
If this were an ordinary divorce, the buzz might have died down quickly. But the main reason for Li Chenxu's divorce was infidelity.
I don't know who started it, but the news spread like wildfire, especially online. The story of Li Chenxu's infidelity wasn't just circulating online; even some entertainment gossip outlets started reporting on it.
Furthermore, when Bai Luo went through the divorce proceedings with Mu Xiaoyu and the others, Mu Xiaoyu left first. Suddenly, everyone suspected that Bai Luo was the one Li Chenxu had cheated on with.
Bai Ye's face darkened as he watched the gossip on TV. He turned off the TV and slapped Bai Luo hard across the face.
"Bai Luo, you'd better give me an explanation!"
Bai Luo was stunned by Bai Ye's sudden slap. She covered the side of her face that had been hit and stared blankly at Bai Ye for a while before suddenly shouting at him, "So what if I'm with Li Chenxu! We are truly in love, and he and Sister Xiaoyu are already divorced!"
"Divorce? You and Li Chenxu got together first, that's why Mu Xiaoyu divorced Li Chenxu! Bai Luo, you're a member of the Bai family, how can you be so shameless!"
Bai Luo covered her face, head bowed, not speaking immediately. She bit her lip tightly, seemingly trying her best to suppress her emotions. She remained motionless in that position for an unknown amount of time before suddenly raising her head to look at Bai Ye, saying sarcastically, "Brother, isn't it good that I'm with Brother Chen Xu? Don't you like Sister Xiao Yu? Now that she and Brother Chen Xu are divorced, don't you have a chance?"
Bai Ye was clearly taken aback by Bai Luo's words, and his usually calm expression faltered for a few seconds. He narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Bai Luo: "Bai Luo, my feelings for Miss Mu are not an excuse for your affair with Li Chenxu!"
After saying that, Bai Ye gave Bai Luo a deep look, then slammed the door and left.
Bai Luo remained standing still, watching Bai Ye's departing figure, and after a long while, she suddenly laughed.
After completing the divorce proceedings with Li Chenxu, Mu Xiaoyu stayed at home without going anywhere. The events of the past few days had been overwhelming and exhausting; she needed some time to rest and clean up the mess around her.
Because all the maids had been dismissed, Mu Xiaoyu was now the only person in the huge villa. So when Bai Ye arrived, Mu Xiaoyu was completely unprepared.
Seeing Bai Ye standing at the door with a serious expression, Mu Xiaoyu was stunned for a few seconds, then her heart jumped and she looked at him warily.
"What brings Mr. Bai here at this time?"
"Miss Mu, I'd like to talk to you about the matter between Bai Luo and Li Chenxu."
Upon hearing Bai Ye mention Bai Luo and Li Chenxu's matter, Mu Xiaoyu's expression immediately changed, and her gaze towards Bai Ye became impatient and disgusted: "If you're here because of their issues, I advise you not to do those pointless things. The issues between me, Li Chenxu, and your sister have all been resolved, there's nothing more to say."
After saying that, Mu Xiaoyu tried to close the door, but before it was completely closed, Bai Ye blocked it with his hand.
Mu Xiaoyu was completely unprepared for Bai Ye's move. Before she could stop herself, the heavy door slammed into Bai Ye's hand.
With a loud thud, Mu Xiaoyu felt a sharp pain, but Bai Ye didn't react at all.
"Are you crazy?"
Bai Ye shook his head, staring intently at Mu Xiaoyu, and said, "Miss Mu, I'm not here to plead for Bai Luo, but to apologize. It's our Bai family that failed to educate Bai Luo properly, which is why she did such a thing. I know this incident has hurt you deeply, and whatever you ask for, as long as it's within our capabilities, I will do it."
"It's not just Bai Luo who didn't teach her properly, there's not a single good person in your Bai family." Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but complain in her heart, but her face remained cold. She looked at Bai Ye with a half-smile and said with a hint of sarcasm, "Bai Ye, did you make an appointment with Li Chenxu? You both said you would make it up to me. It seems you really think highly of me, Mu Xiaoyu."
“Miss Mu, I’m telling the truth. You… should know how I feel about you. I don’t want you to get hurt. Some things might upset you if I say them, but I still have to. Actually, I was very happy to hear the news of your divorce from Li Chenxu.”
Mu Xiaoyu almost spat out a mouthful of blood from Bai Ye's words. She used all her strength to keep from slapping Bai Ye, and her expression became somewhat distorted from holding back.
"Bai Ye! Do I have a grudge against you? How can you talk to me like that!"
Bai Ye always maintained a serious and unsmiling demeanor in front of Mu Xiaoyu, but now, hearing Mu Xiaoyu's words, he realized how inappropriate his earlier remarks had been.
"What I said just now was indeed abrupt. But what I said is true, Miss Mu. What kind of compensation do you want? What do you need me to do? As long as it's within my power, I'm willing to do it for you. And from now on, I'm also one of your suitors."
Bai Ye knew a little about Song Bai's situation and also understood that Mu Xiaoyu actually had many suitors. If Bai Luo's incident hadn't happened, Bai Ye thought he might still have had a chance, but now that Bai Luo's situation had occurred, his chances were probably even slimmer.
But it doesn't matter, he has plenty of patience.
Mu Xiaoyu remained silent, her clear black and white eyes subtly observing Bai Ye. To be honest, ever since she learned that Bai Ye had been targeting Li Chenxu, she hadn't believed that Bai Ye had any feelings for her.
After all, many of the things Bai Ye did to Li Chenxu could even threaten her safety. If he liked her, he would at least consider her safety.
If it wasn't because he enjoyed doing it, then Bai Ye must have had other reasons.
Previously, when I went to my mother's family home to look for clues, according to Li Chenxu's previous statement, the password was already known. Perhaps, Bai Ye is now trying to extract the password from her?
