After faking his death, he stopped pretending to be a substitute.

Bai Zhongxu glanced at the document bag: "What is this?"

"You will know what I asked people to find out about Chu Yanyi after reading it."

Bai Zhongxu then took it and pulled out the information inside.

Soon, his eyes burned with blazing anger, and his face was as gloomy as ice.

"The founder and president of Linglong Family!"

"The entire Xingyi Building belongs to him!"

"What happened to Bai three years ago was his fault!"

Bai Zhongxu threw the paper in his hand heavily on the ground, his body trembling slightly because of his anger: "This traitor is really good! He wants to destroy the Bai family, how dare he!"

Bai Lian glanced at the suppressed anger in his brows, bent down, picked up the papers scattered on the ground, neatly arranged them, and placed them on the corner of the table.

"Why did he do this? Xiao Lian... why do you think he did this? I am his father, and the Bai family is his home!"

Bai Zhongxu asked Bai Lian with a livid face, anger and disbelief.

Bai Lian raised his head and looked at him deeply: "You are his father, but he does not regard you as his father."

Bai Zhongxu was silent with his hand on the armrest of the leather chair. He tried his best to calm down his emotions and then asked, "How did you find out about this?"

Bai Lian answered truthfully: "That day I made an appointment with Yanxi and met Chu Yanyi in the restaurant. I saw that he was quite close to a strange man. I was curious about the man's identity and asked someone to check it out. I didn't expect that the other person was actually a third person. Jian Huai, who bribed people in the Bai family to steal the design drawings years ago."

"Dad, now that we know Chu Yanyi's purpose, what should we do next?"

Bai Zhongxu gently closed his eyes and exhaled slowly, and when he opened them again, he seemed to have made a lot of determination.

He looked straight at Bai Lian: "Xiao Lian, Song Yanxi is unwilling to help Bai, so we can only find another way out. Tan Huaicheng has a good impression of you. You should interact with him more when you have time. If you can get him to help, Bai Maybe there's still hope."

Bai Lian's heart was shocked and she looked at him in disbelief.

Bai Zhongxu's words meant that he should crawl into Tan Huaicheng's bed for Bai's sake.

When Tan Huaicheng fell in love with him and Bai Zhongxu was about to send Chu Yanyi to Tan Huaicheng's bed, he did not feel that Bai Zhongxu was ruthless, and even thought that he was important in Bai Zhongxu's heart.

At this moment, after listening to Bai Zhongxu's cryptic words, I really felt his ruthlessness.

He originally thought that he was his favorite son and the heir to the Bai family in his heart, but who knew that his father, whom he had admired and admired since childhood, could actually let his own son crawl into someone else's bed for the sake of profit.

His mother tried her best to drive away Lu Yunxing and her son, thinking that she could enter the palace and become Mrs. Bai. However, after so many years, she was still just a lover who was kept at home and could not take the stage.

In the past, Bai Zhongxu didn't marry his mother because Mr. Bai objected.

Now that Mr. Bai has gone abroad to recuperate, he has long since stopped caring about the Bai family. Bai Zhongxu still has not given his mother a status.

If he hadn't saved Song Yanxi nine years ago, Bai Zhongxu might never have taken their mother and son back to the Bai family and recognized his identity.

It turns out that from beginning to end, he was just a pawn used by Bai Zhongxu to cling to the Song family.

No wonder he immediately asked Song Yanxi to crawl into Tan Huaicheng's bed after he found no use for her.

After thinking about this, Bai Lian felt as if his heart had been stabbed hard.

A sadness unprecedented in the past twenty-five years spread in his chest. He slowly stretched out his slender white hands and pressed them on his chest.

The pain in the heart is clearly transmitted to the palm of the hand through the blood, skin, flesh and bones.

Bai Zhongxu didn't notice anything was wrong with his expression. He softened his expression and asked with rare concern: "You are covering your chest with your hands. Is your heart feeling uncomfortable?"

Nine years ago, he blocked Song Yanxi's knife, causing damage to his heart and leaving sequelae. These sequelae had been cured a few years ago, but no one knew about it.

Bai Lian took away his hand and dropped it to his side, his eyes lowered: "No, I haven't had a good rest recently."

Bai Zhongxu didn't think much about it: "Have you remembered what I just said?"

Bai Lian looked at him, with no more respect, love and admiration in her eyes.

"Dad, Ziyu is already involved with Tan Huaicheng. Are you sure you want me to... contact Tan Huaicheng?"

Bai Zhongxu was surprised: "When did Ziyu and Tan Huaicheng... get together?"

Bai Lian actually didn't know when Bai Ziyu got involved with Tan Huaicheng. Thinking that Bai Ziyu hadn't been home for half a month, he replied, "It should be half a month."

"Why are you just saying it now! If I had known that Ziyu and Tan Huaicheng were together..."

Bai Lian could only understand what the omitted words were.

It is nothing more than using Bai Ziyu to obtain benefits from Tan Huacheng.

Realizing Bai Zhongxu's ruthlessness, Bai Lian calmed down and said calmly: "I just found out about it not long ago."

There was silence in the study for a few seconds. Bai Zhongxu looked at him and said, "Let's put the matter of contact with Tan Huaicheng on hold for now."

When Bai Lian heard this, her emotions were extremely complicated: "I understand."

Bai Zhongxu was quite satisfied with his obedience and waved his hand: "You can go out first."

Bai Lian stood still and said, "Dad, I have something else I want to tell you."

Bai Zhongxu narrowed his eyes, waiting for his next words.

"I want to give up my plan to enter the entertainment industry for the time being, and Ofansen, please also find another brand spokesperson."

Bai Zhongxu frowned: "The reason."

"I was plotted by Chu Yanyi at the last banquet. If some indecent photos were taken and exposed on the Internet, as the spokesperson of the Orfanson brand, it would inevitably affect the brand's sales and thus the company's stock price."

The point is not that someone took photos of the party, but that he was videotaped at the Paradise Club a few days ago. He was so filthy in the video that if it was exposed, his reputation would be ruined.

Bai Zhongxu didn't understand his worries, and after thinking about it for a while, he didn't agree directly: "Let me think about it."

Seeing him frowning and looking like he didn't want to say more, what Bai Lian originally wanted to say changed to: "I'm going out first."

Back in the room, Bai Lian soaked in the bathtub.

The water in the bathtub was cold, but he didn't care.

His body curled up and he closed his eyes tiredly, letting tears fall silently from his cheeks.

No matter how cold the water was, it wouldn't be as cold as his heart felt at the moment.

He is the eldest son of the Bai family, an internationally renowned piano prince, and the proud son of heaven. Now he has been reduced to selling his body in exchange for the Bai family's life.

What an irony.
