Wu Tian smiled and said, "You misunderstand."
"Old Master Bai isn't on your side. As he said, he's just re-evaluating the situation."
"It's clear that everything he's done is for the development of the Bai family. Otherwise, he wouldn't have done it."
Bai Ruoqi asked doubtfully, "What do you mean? Can you explain it to me?"
Wu Tian said, "It's very simple. Look, isn't Xiao Lu publicly supporting you now?"
"This means that if you can take charge of the Bai family, then the Bai family and the Xiao family will have an absolutely close relationship."
"On the other hand, Old Master Bai values my potential and also believes that I might become his grandson-in-law."
"In this case, if he wants to keep me, he has to use this method."
"Ah?!" Bai Ruoqi was a little slow to react, and her pretty face turned red for a moment.
She stammered, "You, you, you... What are you talking about? What grandson-in-law?"
Wu Tian shrugged and said, "Don't you understand what Old Master Bai said? He asked about our relationship back then, didn't he want to get this answer?"
"I guessed his thoughts, so I answered in a rather vague way."
"This way, due to my value, he has to re-evaluate your strength."
Bai Ruoqi was stunned.
To be honest, at that time, her mind was entirely on how to resolve the matter. She hadn't thought about this aspect at all.
Now, thinking about it carefully, she also felt that Bai Yunshan did seem to mean that.
Thinking of this, her pretty face couldn't help but turn redder, and her face felt a little hot.
She couldn't help but say shyly, "That... what do you think about it?"
"Do... do you want to be the son-in-law of our Bai family?"
Wu Tian was stunned by this question.
He knew that Bai Ruoqi had a good impression of him, and he actually felt quite good about Bai Ruoqi.
But now was not the time to consider this issue!
Therefore, he didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Just as he was feeling a little troubled, suddenly, a luxury car stopped beside the two of them. Then the car door opened, and a pair of slender, fair legs stretched out from inside.
Xiao Lu got out of the car, her exquisite face tinged with anger.
She said to the two of them, "Good for you! You left without saying goodbye. What do you mean by that!"
Bai Ruoqi immediately felt a little embarrassed and smiled, saying, "I thought you were going to stay and eat for a while longer, so I didn't call you."
Xiao Lu said angrily, "Eat for a while? What am I supposed to eat? Do you really think I'm interested in that food!"
"Bai Ruoqi, tell me honestly, did you sneak away with him because you're hiding something from me!"
Bai Ruoqi shook her head and said, "No, it's just that you saw the situation at the time. What was the point of us staying there? So leaving was the best option, right?"
Xiao Lu snorted, signaled her driver to drive away first, then squeezed herself between Wu Tian and Bai Ruoqi, and put an arm around Bai Ruoqi.
During this process, she didn't forget to use her leg to push Wu Tian away.
She put on a wronged look and said, "No, you just want to get rid of me and go on a date with him, right? Don't think I don't know!"
"You good-for-nothing Bai Ruoqi, you clearly know I like you, and you're still looking for other men outside. Tell me, isn't this behavior of yours cheating!"
Even Wu Tian was a little dumbfounded by these words.
No, what's wrong with this girl?
How did it become cheating as soon as she opened her mouth?
Bai Ruoqi said with a wry smile, "Xiao Lu, what nonsense are you talking about? What cheating? Wu Tian and I are just friends!"
"Friends?" Xiao Lu sneered, "I don't believe it. Looking at Old Master Bai, he can't wait to get you married on the spot!"
Wu Tian was slightly stunned, thinking that this Xiao Lu was quite sensitive, actually seeing this point.
Then, Xiao Lu turned her head and glared at Wu Tian, saying, "And you, you're really bold. You dare to snatch my wife from me. Tell me, don't you want to live?"
Wu Tian knew that Xiao Lu was just throwing a tantrum, so he smiled helplessly and said, "No, you misunderstand me. I didn't say I wanted to snatch her from you. Speaking nonsense is illegal."
"Ptooey!" Xiao Lu spat and said, "Don't think I don't know, there must be something wrong with your relationship!"
"I say, you are really good at pretending. You were so insignificant when you were there, but I didn't expect you to be the one hiding the deepest!"
"Do you know what this behavior of yours is? You're a scheming man!"
Wu Tian was speechless.
No, why was he, a dignified man, called a scheming man in Xiao Lu's mouth?
Bai Ruoqi said, "Xiao Lu, can you stop talking like this? Otherwise, I'll really get angry."
As soon as Xiao Lu saw Bai Ruoqi scolding her, she immediately felt wronged.
She pointed at Bai Ruoqi and said, "You, you're still on his side. Bai Ruoqi, do you know what this is? You're letting me down!"
"I've done so much for you, and now you're turning your back on me. You're too detestable!"
"I'm so pitiful, my sincere heart has been misplaced like this, sob sob sob..."
Seeing Xiao Lu fake crying like this, Bai Ruoqi felt a headache coming on and said, "Xiao Lu, stop making a scene. Wu Tian is watching."
"Aren't you afraid Wu Tian will laugh at you for doing this in front of him?"
This remark did remind Xiao Lu. She immediately returned to her angry state and glared at Wu Tian, saying, "You're right. No matter how sad I am, I can't cry in front of my love rival!"
"Kid, I'm telling you, if you dare to fight me, Xiao Lu, for a woman, I will never let you go!"
Looking at Xiao Lu's angry appearance, Wu Tian felt even more helpless.
He had heard such words before.
But usually, it was men who threatened him, not women!
So, at this moment, even he didn't know how to react or what to say.
At this time, Bai Ruoqi stood up and quickly smoothed things over, saying, "Oh, alright, alright, it's endless talking about it.
"Xiao Lu, what did you come here for?"
"You're in such a hurry to catch up with us, do you have something important to do?"
