Not only did Zhang Xiulan not get any money from the man, but she was also blackmailed by the man's wife.
The hospital was already urging her. Zhang Xiulan really had no choice but to make peace with Chen Baiyi. She gritted her teeth and decided to suppress the unwillingness in her heart. She planned to use her sincerity to move Chen Baiyi.
Zhang Xiulan found Chen Baiyi and said sincerely, "Baiyi, ever since I married your father, I've never treated you well. I know I was wrong. I was wrong in the past. I was blind."
"I really want your forgiveness. I know I've treated you badly in the past and I regret it. I'll change. Give me another chance and I'll definitely not ruin your reputation again."
"Forgive me, Baiyi!"
Chen Baiyi felt uncomfortable hearing Zhang Xiulan's gentle and even fawning voice. Her eyes were filled with wariness. What was this woman up to now?
In order to see what Zhang Xiulan wanted to do, Chen Baiyi decided to play along.
So Chen Baiyi pretended to hesitate as she lowered her head, and said weakly, "Do you really want to make up with me?" There was even a hint of anticipation in her voice.
Zhang Xiulan understood what Chen Baiyi meant and was delighted when she heard her say that. She knew that there was a chance and said anxiously, "Yes, I really know. I won't do such a thing again."
'We're family. I want the best for you!'
Chen Baiyi was disgusted by Zhang Xiulan's words. Ever since she moved out, how much trouble had Zhang Xiulan and Chen Xinyue caused her? A few days ago, Zhang Xiulan even climbed the wall in the middle of the night to enter her courtyard.
Although Zhang Xiulan said that, she might be scolding her in her heart. However, in order to figure out Zhang Xiulan's motive, she endured her discomfort and pretended to be puzzled. She asked Zhang Xiulan innocently, "A few days ago, Dog Two said that Chen Xinyue asked him to burn my bamboo? Is this for my own good?"
When Zhang Xiulan heard Chen Baiyi's words, her expression was very stiff. Chen Baiyi was probably not only talking about Chen Xinyue, but also about the widower. However, she still continued to explain shamelessly, "It must be Dog Two talking nonsense. Xiyue is your sister. Why would she harm you? I was the one who did everything in the past. I can guarantee that this will never happen again!"
Chen Baiyi admired Zhang Xiulan's expression for a moment before ignoring her.
Tsk, she didn't believe Zhang Xiulan would really treat her as one of her own. She was so anxious to make up with her and even mentioned her fiancé. She definitely didn't have any good intentions.
But she still had to keep up the act, so she nodded with feigned delight and said yes.
When Zhang Xiulan heard that Chen Baiyi had relented, she was overjoyed. She couldn't hide her thoughts anymore. "Alright. Then I'll introduce you to another one. Don't worry, I'll definitely find you a good one this time. I guarantee that you'll be satisfied."
Of course, Chen Baiyi agreed. Zhang Xiulan immediately went to find someone for her.
As Zhang Xiulan picked a partner for Chen Baiyi, she made up her mind. This time, she would not be stupid enough to choose a "fiancé" who was about to die for Chen Baiyi. Her son's hospitalization fees depended on this "fiancé".
It turned out that Zhang Xiulan wanted to marry Chen Baiyi off again because she was out of money, so that she could get the betrothal money again. Moreover, she planned to choose someone with a good family background so that she could have a stable "cash machine."
