Chapter 363: Chapter 7: Sinister Laboratory (Part 7)

The Li Family and the Bai Family have a close relationship, as well as all business engagements, with both families being similarly powerful.

Li Shuning disappeared and hasn’t been found yet; canceling the marriage was understandable for the Li Family. After all, with their daughter gone, they couldn’t keep dragging the groom along.

They could understand, but it left a knot in their hearts; after all, their daughter had only been missing for so many days, and they proposed canceling the engagement, which emotionally hurt them. They wouldn’t want Bai Zihao to keep waiting as Shuning’s fiancé.

In the storyline, the Bai Family can turn around and attack the Li Family, which is enough to show that childhood ties mean nothing; interests are the most important.

Li Shuning had already explained the situation to her parents.

Bai Zihao had a fiancée yet flirted with another woman, leading to the woman causing Li Shuning to be kidnapped, almost not returning.

They had seen the news, everything within that lab was disclosed, so cruel, and their daughter almost became a part of the formaldehyde specimens.

How could they not hate?

Originally, they didn’t think much about it; if the engagement was canceled, then let it be.

However, their daughter told them the engagement was canceled because Bai Zihao was with the woman who harmed her.

Li Shuning’s mother was furious.

Li Shuning’s father was also somewhat angry.

Li Shuning also warned her father to be careful of the Bai Family making a move in business.

After all, the two families had collaborations, and if the Bai Family sabotaged any part, it would significantly damage the Li Family.

In the storyline, the Bai Family did exactly that, resulting in the Li Family losing everything and being swallowed by the Bai Family.

Mr. Li thought about it and realized that now that there was a rift between the two families, such important business indeed was no longer suitable for collaboration; even a slight issue could severely harm them.

Li Shuning found her brother; currently, he handles most company affairs.

After a secret conversation with her brother, Li Shuning returned to her residence.

Bai Zihao has been living quite leisurely these days.

Frankly, Bai Family and Li Family are childhood companions; he has some aversion to the marriage proposal his family arranged.

However, his mother said it’s necessary. Such a significant collaboration project needs a bridge, and clearly, marriage is inevitable.

Li Shuning isn’t ugly, and at worst, he could just take good care of her.

Li Shuning isn’t ugly, but in Bai Zihao’s view, Li Shuning seems indifferent; every time they have a date, she sits quietly, and when he wants to be affectionate, there is no interest, like a block of wood, just looking at him plainly, which makes him instantly lose interest.

He prefers gentle and charming girls.

One time during a meal, he met one.

Bai Zihao knows he shouldn’t mess around, especially before marriage.

However, Li Shuning’s disappearance was a relief for him.

She’s been missing for a week; who knows what might happen?

If she were violated, what qualifications would she have to be the Bai Family’s daughter-in-law?

Bai Zihao began courting Wang Xiaoduo, and unexpectedly, she was so agreeable and understanding; before long, they were entwined.

Indeed, such a girl is suitable for him.

The charm of a gentle township, the tomb of heroes; Bai Zihao felt he didn’t want to do anything else.

Not long after, the engagement was canceled, and Bai Zihao felt even more refreshed.

Months later, Li Shuning was still not found; probably, she would never return.

Bai Zihao graduated and started working in his own company.

Of course, he also attends some social gatherings.

He likes to bring Wang Xiaoduo along.

Especially seeing Wang Xiaoduo in a sexy evening dress, he would think about “bullying” Xiaoduo in a corner of the banquet, which is very exciting.

However, Xiaoduo has some apprehension towards Li Shuning; she always feels that if the Li Family sees her, they might do something to her.

Bai Zihao feels a bit sympathetic.

The woman he cherishes, how could he let her suffer injustice?

If the Li Family dares to do anything to her, Bai Zihao, biting his teeth, would never let them go.

As if the Li Family had already done something, Bai Zihao was gritting his teeth.

On Friday night, with Wang Xiaoduo having no classes the next day, Bai Zihao dressed her up and took her to attend a banquet.

Wang Xiaoduo wore a fiery red, body-hugging off-shoulder gown, her exquisite figure fully displayed.

This gown was somewhat like a cheongsam, with a slit on the left side reaching up to the thigh.

Wang Xiaoduo had to walk very carefully; otherwise, she might accidentally reveal too much.

The neckline protrudes, showing the cleavage, a walking sexy stunner.

Bai Zihao likes this.

Even though other men stare at Wang Xiaoduo, seeing their amazed gazes, he feels proud because this sexy stunner is his, and most importantly, he is her first man.

Upon getting off the car, just as another car arrived, two people stepped out.

Bai Zihao saw it was Li Shuqi.

Bai Zihao greeted him with a smile: “Brother Li, you’re here! Who is this?”

After all, the families were still collaborating; Bai Zihao didn’t want to strain the relationship. His father had taught him never to show dislike, no matter how much you detest someone.

Beside Li Shuqi was not his wife, but another woman.

This woman looked naturally good and didn’t dress too revealing, yet her presence inexplicably felt flavorful, especially in her walk, she felt like a graceful woman coming elegantly.

For a moment, Bai Zihao was attracted by the woman’s aura.

This woman was indeed Li Shuning.

Li Shuqi said, “This is a distant relative from our family.”

Bai Zihao paused, seeing Li Shuqi didn’t introduce her, he changed the topic: “By the way, isn’t Brother Shulin back yet? Every year around this time, Brother Shulin would make a visit.”

“This year, the second brother is somewhat busy and might not be coming back. Zihao, let’s go inside; there are mosquitoes outside.”

Truthfully, Li Shuqi didn’t want to speak a word with Bai Zihao.

This dumbass took him for an idiot? He had the audacity to make small talk with someone like him, right after dumping the Li Family, Bai Zihao immediately found another, openly smacking the Li Family in the face.

Li Shuning’s every move was elegant; she interacted exceptionally well with others.

At the banquet upon seeing Li Shuning, they felt it was a visual delight.

Even Bai Zihao felt the same.

When Bai Zihao was staring at Li Shuning, Wang Xiaoduo felt a bit jealous. Her fingers began seductively caressing Bai Zihao’s palm, and her body brushed against Bai Zihao intentionally or unintentionally.

Bai Zihao, young and keen for excitement, was immediately aroused by Wang Xiaoduo’s actions.

Bai Zihao took Wang Xiaoduo to the balcony.

The banquet venue was in a large mansion,

The first-floor hall was spacious, and around it were several small balconies.

Bai Zihao found an unlit, dark, unmanned balcony.

Then pulled Wang Xiaoduo onto the balcony.
