Chapter 325 Everyone lives their own life and doesn't disturb each other.
Bai Zixuan and Bai Qianyue were sitting in a private plane bound for the Dragon Kingdom.
This plane is used by the Bai family for long-haul flights. It has a very large interior space, and all the seats are made of very high-grade genuine leather, which is very soft and comfortable.
The plane's engines were very quiet, and the cabin was extremely peaceful.
Bai Qianyue sat by the window.
She was wearing a very ordinary white dress, the same one she wore in Li Ze's underground base.
After she boarded the plane, she did not ask to change her clothes or ask for food.
She sat quietly in her seat, turned her head, and stared intently out the window.
Outside, there were only white clouds, nothing at all.
But Bai Qianyue just kept watching, her body motionless and without saying a word.
Her face was expressionless, and there was no light in her eyes.
She looked very tired and listless.
Bai Zixuan sat opposite Bai Qianyue.
Looking at Bai Qianyue like this, he felt very complicated.
He knew that Bai Qianyue must have suffered a great shock in that underground base.
Li Ze had people play extremely offensive words for her every day, and this method was indeed very effective.
The current Bai Qianyue has completely lost the arrogant and confident demeanor she used to have.
She is now just an ordinary woman who has completely lost hope.
Actually, from the perspective of a forty-year-old middle-aged man, this matter is very easy to understand.
Feelings are something that cannot be forced.
In Li Ze's heart, there has only ever been his ex-wife Zhang Ruoran and his twin children.
Li Ze's current goal is to make amends to his wife and children and reunite the family.
Bai Qianyue insists on using all sorts of methods to pester others; isn't that just making trouble for herself?
Now Li Ze used the most direct method to shatter all her hopes.
Although this may sound harsh, it is definitely a great thing for everyone.
If Bai Qianyue stops causing trouble, Li Ze's family can live a peaceful life, and Bai Qianyue herself can start her life anew.
Bai Zixuan sat down, picked up a glass of warm water from the table in front of him, and took a sip.
Then, he put down his water glass and looked at Bai Qianyue across from him.
He felt that there were some things he needed to make clear to Bai Qianyue right now.
Bai Zixuan coughed lightly and said:
"Sister Qianyue, have some water first. You haven't eaten or drunk anything since you boarded the plane. Your body won't be able to take it if you keep going like this."
Bai Qianyue did not turn her head when she heard Bai Zixuan speak.
She continued looking out the window, and answered in a very soft, very hoarse voice:
"I'm not thirsty. Just say what you want to say."
When Bai Zixuan heard her say that, he took a deep breath.
He sat up straight, his expression becoming very serious.
He looked at Bai Qianyue's profile and said very clearly:
"Sister Qianyue, first of all, I want to apologize to you on behalf of my uncle, who is your biological father."
"sorry."
Upon hearing this, Bai Qianyue finally turned her head.
She looked at Bai Zixuan, her brows furrowing slightly, and asked:
"You apologized for him? What happened to him?"
Bai Zixuan didn't hide anything; he told Bai Qianyue everything that had happened recently.
Bai Zixuan said:
"Sister Qianyue, a lot has happened at home while you were locked up by Li Ze."
"My uncle doesn't want you to go back at all, because he's vying for the position of head of the Bai family."
"Not only did he not try to find you, he also planted a bomb on the private plane I was on."
"He wants to blow me up in the Pacific Ocean. That way, no one will come to save you, and he can rightfully become the head of the Bai family."
Bai Qianyue's eyes widened slightly upon hearing these words.
However, she did not show any particular surprise or anger on her face.
She just listened very quietly.
Bai Zixuan continued:
"However, I was very lucky. Li Ze secretly discovered the problem with my plane and sent people to rescue me."
"Then, I took the audio evidence that Li Ze gave me and returned to the Bai family compound in Beijing."
"At the ceremony where the head of the family passed on his position, I told all the relatives about all the things my uncle had done."
"Now, my uncle has been arrested by the police. What he did violated the law, and he will definitely have to spend a very long time in prison."
"Grandpa was so shocked by what he heard that he fainted. The doctor said that his health is very poor now and he will no longer be able to manage the family affairs."
Bai Zixuan finished explaining everything in one go.
He looked at Bai Qianyue and continued in a very sincere tone:
"Sister Qianyue, the power of the Bai family is currently in my hands."
"However, I know very well in my heart that you have always been the person Grandpa valued most. He has long wanted to hand over the position of head of the Bai family to you."
"Besides, you've managed so many large companies outside over the years; your abilities far surpass mine."
"So, that's what I want to tell you today."
"Once you return to the capital with me, I will hand over the position of head of the Bai family to you."
"You will lead the Bai family to continue its development. I believe that under your leadership, the Bai family will definitely become richer and more powerful."
Bai Zixuan spoke these words with great sincerity.
He was genuinely willing to relinquish his position as head of the family.
Because he knew Bai Qianyue's abilities.
He also hoped that Bai Qianyue could rediscover her motivation in life and emerge from Li Ze's shadow by managing the family business.
but.
After listening to Bai Zixuan's long speech, Bai Qianyue...
There was absolutely no happy expression on her face.
She didn't even show the slightest sign of being interested.
She looked at Bai Zixuan and shook her head very lightly.
"Zixuan, I appreciate your kindness."
Bai Qianyue's voice was very flat, without a trace of emotion.
She spoke directly:
"But I don't want to be the head of this family."
"I have absolutely no interest in the Bai family's businesses, those companies, or making more money now."
Bai Zixuan was taken aback when he heard Bai Qianyue refuse him outright.
He asked, completely bewildered:
"Sister Asatsuki, why?"
"This is the position of head of the Bai family! If you hold this position, you'll have enormous power and endless money. You can do whatever you want!"
"Didn't you work very hard managing those businesses before?"
Bai Qianyue looked at the water glass on the table in front of her and gave a bitter smile.
She answered very directly:
"Yes, I used to work very hard."
"I spent eighteen years working hard abroad. I built those companies into such large companies, and I made so much money."
"Do you think I do these things because I genuinely like money?"
"No. I did all of this for Li Ze."
Bai Qianyue's eyes slowly reddened, but she forced herself not to let the tears fall.
She continued:
"I thought that as long as I became powerful enough, as long as I became very rich, Li Ze would take a second look at me, and he would think that I was a woman worthy of him."
"But what was the result?"
"He told me in person in that room that he thought what I did was disgusting, and that he felt annoyed just looking at me."
"He made me give up completely. He told me that in this life and the next, Zhang Ruoran will be the only one in his heart."
Bai Qianyue let out a long sigh as she finished speaking.
She leaned back in her seat, looking completely exhausted.
"Zixuan, I don't want anything anymore."
"I don't want to manage any company, nor do I want to manage any family."
"I worked hard for eighteen years, only to find out in the end that I was a huge joke."
"I feel extremely tired right now, so very tired. I have absolutely no energy left."
Bai Zixuan looked at Bai Qianyue, who appeared completely lifeless.
He felt extremely anxious.
He quickly moved forward a little and continued to persuade him:
"Sister Qianyue, you can't think like that!"
"You've ruined yourself like this for a man? It's not worth it!"
"You have a bright future ahead of you. You have money, and you're beautiful. You can absolutely start a new life!"
"Our Bai family needs you very much right now. Grandpa is lying in the hospital, and if he knew you were like this, he would be heartbroken."
"Even if not for yourself, for Grandpa, for the Bai family, you should at least pull yourself together and take over the position of family head!"
Bai Zixuan persuaded him earnestly for several minutes.
He gave every reason he could think of.
He hoped that Bai Qianyue could regain her former confidence.
However, after listening, Bai Qianyue still shook her head very firmly.
She looked at Bai Zixuan, her tone very calm, but there was absolutely no room for negotiation.
She began to speak:
"Zixuan, you don't need to try to persuade me anymore."
"I've made up my mind. From now on, you'll be in charge of everything related to the Bai family. I believe you can manage it very well."
"When you get back, tell Grandpa that I am unfilial and that I can no longer take care of him."
Bai Qianyue looked into Bai Zixuan's eyes and very seriously stated her request:
"I only have one requirement now."
"I don't want to care about anything, and I don't want to hear anything. I just want to be alone in peace and quiet."
"I remember our Bai family has a private estate in the south. It's a very remote place, and there aren't many people around."
"Once the plane arrives in China, arrange a car to take me to that manor."
"I'll be living there from now on. Just have someone bring me some food and drinks every month."
"Besides that, don't let anyone bother me. I won't see anyone."
Bai Zixuan heard Bai Qianyue make this request.
He sat there, opened his mouth, and wanted to continue trying to persuade him.
But when he saw Bai Qianyue's lifeless eyes, he knew that nothing he said would make a difference.
Bai Qianyue's heart is completely dead.
She truly doesn't care about anything anymore.
Bai Zixuan sighed helplessly.
He leaned back in his chair, nodded, and agreed:
"Alright, Asatsuki-nee. Since you insist, I won't try to persuade you anymore."
"Don't worry, I'll have the estate cleaned beforehand. I'll arrange for the most reliable people to take care of your daily needs."
"Just rest and recuperate there. If you need anything, just have someone contact me."
Bai Qianyue heard Bai Zixuan agree.
She nodded slightly.
"Thank you, Zixuan."
After saying that, Bai Qianyue didn't say anything more.
She turned her head and looked out the window again.
The clouds outside were still a vast expanse of white.
Bai Qianyue closed her eyes, leaned back in her chair, and rested quietly.
Bai Zixuan looked at Bai Qianyue, shook his head, and sighed inwardly.
However, if you look at it from another perspective, this is actually a good result.
Bai Qianyue was willing to give up everything to recuperate, so he would take full control of the Bai family's affairs.
Moreover, Li Ze no longer needs to worry about Bai Qianyue causing trouble.
Everyone lives their own life and doesn't bother each other.
This is indeed the most stable outcome we can get right now.
The plane flew smoothly through the sky, continuing its journey towards the Dragon Kingdom.
