"Calm down. Let me check the woman. I what to know who she is." Mei Liuli told her.


"No need. I know who she is. I've met her before! Her sister told me she's a nasty piece of work. She had lots of boyfriends before and she even got pregnant. She gave birth to a baby when she was 18!"


Mei Liuli was shocked. "What? How could Mr.President get involved with her? That's insane."


"Why not? You knew men's nature. They all say men are no good if they're not bad. But now it's different! Women are no good if they're not bad! "


"I never thought he could be such a shallow person." Mei Liuli said. "It seems that I need to have a talk with your dad. We need to discuss the whole marriage thing though."


"Don't. Don't talk with dad. What are you trying to say?" Song Weiyi stopped Mei Liuli. "Don't you know what he's thinking about? He had already wanted to sacrifice my marriage to get power. He will certainly force me to marry him. And… if I don't marry him, that will absolutely satisfy the girl. It might be her who sent me those photos! I WILL marry him! And I'm gonna teach her some lessons."


When Song Weiyi finished her speech, her eyes became sharp. She was a princess. Everyone obeyed her all the time. But now a normal girl's trying to challenge her! And the woman even had a child! How could Song Weiyi bear such things?


"Weiyi, what are you going to do?"


"Mom, don't worry. I'm just going to tell her the result of fighting me for a man. "


Mai Liuli agreed with her. "That's okay. It's good to warn people if they know nothing about power. But I have to warn you first. Don't kill people. Your father is the Vice President. If there's something serious, he's gonna be done."


"Oh mom, come on! Why should I kill her?" She certainly wouldn't just kill her. She's gonna make her life a living hell.


Xia Dabai hadn't recovered completely. He went to sleep again after taking some medicine.


Bai Suye turned to Xia Xingchen. "It's not that easy for us to meet. Let's take a walk downstairs, come on."


Xia Xingchen nodded her head. She tucked in the covers for the kid and went downstairs. Bai Suye was sitting beside the fountain. The Roman columns decorated the image. She's just like Bai Yeqing. She's a beautiful picture even if she did nothing and just sitting over there.


Xia Xingchen thought she might know what's going to come next. Honestly speaking, there's nothing for them to talk about except Bai Yeqing.


She walked over. Bai Suye smiled at her and said. "Come."


Xia Xingchen sat next to her. She didn't want to break the silence first. The breeze made everything seemed nice and relaxed. A maid came and brought a cape for her. She thanked the maid gently.


Bai Suye watched her, sipping from her coffee cup. "Is it hard to raise the child all by yourself these years?"


"It's alright though. I'm satisfied." She knew the hard times and she thought it’s better to keep them as secrets inside her. She didn't have the passion to share everything with others. Everything's over. She's good now. Dabai was good, too. The only thing she wishes now was that Bai Yeqing allows her to take Dabai home. There's nothing for her to complain.


"Is it okay for you to live here?" Bai Suye asked.


Xia Xingchen smiled. "I found an apartment. I moved out. I came because the kid was sick. I promised him to live here to take care of Dabai."


"You moved out?" Bai Suye was shocked. "Forgive me for speaking frankly. If other women get the chance to live in this house, they won't want to move out."


Xia Xingchen stopped talking.


Bai Suye put down her cup. "Do you know Yeqing is going to be engaged to Song Weiyi?"


This was not a new topic. But it still hurt to hear it again. After a while she lifted her head up. "I heard."


"What do you think?"


"Me?" Xia Xingchen asked with a bitter smile. "It's the president's choice. What can I say?"


Women were always more considerate than men. Bai Yesu looked into her eyes. Her eyes were about to pierce her soul. Xia Xingchen held the cup more tightly. "Yeqing let you live here and he even wanted to introduce you to my parents. I guess you really mean a lot to him. But, you know… for people like us, marriage is totally different from love. We can love anyone we want but we can't choose the people we marry."


Bai Yesu had a nice voice. Slight like the hint of a cloud in the sky. But when the soft voice went into Xia Xinghen's heart. It still hurt a lot.


"At that time, after my father lost the competition by a few votes to the brother of Vice President Song, tons of scandals flooded into our family. My uncle died for that and my third uncle was still in jail now. Now Yeqing has been trying to clear his name. But it's so hard. We can't do that by ourselves. We need to get some help from the old members of the House of Representatives. If Song Guoyao would help us, it will go smoothly. People think Yeqing is powerful and he could get anything he wants. But that's not true. The high position and strong power also brought him restrictions and fears. We don't know how many people are there waiting for him to make a mistake or collapse. We don't know how many people are there waiting to attack him. And also, we don't even know the consequences."


Xia Xingchen couldn't tell how she was feeling now. Maybe it was what politics and power actually meant. Even if they don't have to face the rain of bullets, but the traps around them were more dangerous than bullets. Last time he was seriously injured in the White Feather Palace. If he was careless, he might have already died.


Xia Xingchen was frightened thinking about this. He was walking on the edge of the knife all the time.


But he never showed a hint of danger to her and their child.


Watching her reactions, Bai Suye smiled. "You don't have to worry about him. We are used to the situation in these years. I only want to warn you that if you can leave, just go. It's a good choice for both of you. I'm afraid one day, if he can't live without you, he'll let himself in trouble. People like him needn't and can't have weaknesses."
