Chapter 74 : Say At Once (2)
The sound of Xue Yan’s heels announced her return, which drove Bai Xiaojin to cry even harder. “I’m sorry, I recognize my wrong! I’m… I’m Bai Qingyan’s cousin! My Bai Family raised her for twenty years! President Gu, she wouldn’t want you to do this! Please don’t…!”
By then Xue Yan had reached her side and stood in front of her with the medicine in hand. Bai Xiaojin’s body was reaching its limit, shaking uncontrollably as she slowly backed away.
She didn’t want to become mute. She wanted to sing. She was going to be a famous singer!
While being unable to escape, her chin was grabbed by Xue Yan as the frightening woman prepared to force-feed her the medicine that would take away her voice. Bai Xiaojin’s pleas for mercy flew out of her mouth non-stop. “Don’t… President Gu, please… President Gu… Think of Bai Qingyan… I’m her cousin…”
“Shut up!” Xue Yan tightened her grip, already fed up with the crying.
Bai Xiaojin couldn’t process what was happening. She came here planning to make Gu Yezhi dump Bai Qingyan. Instead, her plans backfired terribly. Why was she the one being punished? It wasn’t supposed to be like this!
The expression on her face was one of despair. Coupled with the tears coursing down her cheeks, it was a pitiful sight. Just before Xue Yan poured the medicine down her throat, Gu Yezhi stopped her.
“Wait!”
His voice was like usual, cold and emotionless. However, at that moment, his voice sounded like an angel from heaven to Bai Xiaojin.
She tried moving her face, but it was held firmly by Xue Yan. She could only move her eyes, so she looked at him from the corner of her eyes and waited for him to speak. He was the one who would decide if she was going to be saved or not.
Meanwhile, Gu Yezhi was deep in his thoughts. There was much to consider.
He remembered when Bai Qingyan held his arm a few days ago. She had told him Bai Xiaojin was her uncle’s daughter, so he had let her go. After all, Bai Jian was good to his wife.
He didn’t want to make things difficult for his wife and give her a headache. He stayed silent for a few more seconds before ordering Xue Yan to release the other woman. “Forget it. Let her go. But send the word forward: she’s banned!”
Xue Yan immediately released her grip. “Yes, sir.”
Bai Xiaojin felt like she had just escaped death. She collapsed on the ground and cried. She was banned, but that’s okay. She could still talk, and that’s all that mattered.
Xue Yan kicked Bai Xiaojin impatiently. “Get out of here! If I hear you speaking nonsense again, I’ll cut off your tongue!”
Bai Xiaojin looked at the woman in front of her, shaking in fear. She didn’t dare talk back, she only got up and left the office.
Gu Yezhi smirked, feeling satisfied with how everything had been handled.
In any case, Bai Xiaojin and Bai Qingyan had nothing in common. With that woman blocked, there was no longer any chance that she’d appear in front of his wife to annoy her.

Bai Xiaojin went straight home. Even after she arrived, she was still in a state of panic. She sat on the sofa, dumbfounded. It was how her mother found her a while later.
Kang Meizhi shook her daughter several times to grab her attention. “Xiaojin? What’s wrong? What happened to you?”
She was concerned that her daughter had been hurt somehow, but Bai Xiaojin wasn’t hurt. She was frightened.
Suddenly, she focused on her mother and threw herself into Kang Meizhi’s arms, crying. “Mom… Mom! I was banned! What am I going to do? I can’t be a singer anymore! Mom, I want to be a singer! What am I supposed to do?!”
Listening to her daughter’s sobs, Kang Meizhi immediately became anxious. “What? What happened? Why were you banned?”
She had always thought her daughter’s voice was her pride. She went out to show off every day. If Bai Xiaojin wasn’t going to be a singer anymore, then she had nothing to brag about.
And being banned was the worst result. She wouldn’t have the face to even go outside.
While she thought about those things, Bai Xiaojin was gritting her teeth in anger. “It’s all Bai Qingyan’s fault! Mom, it was that dead girl’s fault! She made me uneasy. Today I just went to Gu Yezhi to make him see the truth, but he somehow got angry and said he wanted to kill me! She must have fed him so many lies for so long…”
