Chapter 864 -864: Bullied by Her Many Times
“How is it not?” Gu Xiuting agreed with her view, “Shen Chi is a smart man, but he’s peculiarly stubborn about this kind of thing.”
“What does that little vixen use to charm men?” Bai Man asked, “I’ve heard that the Crown Prince of Faye Jewelry, Nie Chenglang, also has something to do with her, and there are rumors that the child in Xu Chaomu’s belly is Nie Chenglang’s.”
“Really? There’s such talk?” Gu Xiuting became curious, as he hadn’t heard about this before, “So, Shen Chi is happy playing daddy?”
“Why wouldn’t he be, happy playing daddy,” Bai Man said with a hint more of sarcasm in her tone.
“Then in the future when Xu Chaomu’s child is born, and it looks nothing like Shen Chi, wouldn’t it become the joke of the town?” Gu Xiuting found it hilarious.
Bai Man laughed, she was touching up her makeup with a mirror, and didn’t say anything more.
Gu Xiuting found it too funny and kept on laughing, “Does Shen Chi not know, or is he playing dumb? But Xu Chaomu’s kid is over six months now, I guess Shen Chi is playing dumb, and he has quite the nerve.”
“As they wish,” Bai Man said indifferently.
“This joke’s good for a few years of laughter for me. Isn’t Shen Chi afraid his wife will someday take all his wealth and run off to the child’s real father?” Gu Xiuting laughed uncontrollably.
Bai Man didn’t speak, just focused on touching up her makeup.
Soon, the car reached the First Hospital.
The hospital was bustling. Gu Xiuting greeted some people, and prepared to directly take Bai Man to dermatology.
When they got to dermatology, the doctor checked Bai Man, “No major issues, just apply some ointment and it will be fine.”
“Will it leave any marks?” Gu Xiuting asked.
“No, it will heal in two or three days,” the doctor replied.
“That’s good.”
After speaking, the doctor wrote a prescription for Bai Man and sent someone to fetch the medicine.
Bai Man retied her scarf and hardly spoke, her face showing little emotional fluctuation.
“Manman, does it hurt?” Gu Xiuting was more concerned about her.
“It doesn’t hurt, it’s nothing,” Bai Man said, “You haven’t seen that girl at her wildest.”
“Really? Have you suffered a lot at her hands before, been bullied many times?”
“How could I have not? When it comes to fighting, I’m no match for her. In the past, I really suffered quite a bit,” Bai Man said indifferently.
She made it up casually, after all, Gu Xiuting wasn’t going to check if it was true or false.
Compared to Xu Chaomu, the person who hurt her the most was certainly Shen Chi. Five years ago, Shen Chi had, so to speak, cut her heart many times, and those scars had not yet healed.
“Miss Bai, your ointment,” someone came over and handed Bai Man her medicine.
“Thank you,” Bai Man took it and casually handed it to Gu Xiuting.
“Shall I apply it for you?” Gu Xiuting offered.
“No need, the smell is too strong. How can I go to the hotel after applying it?” Bai Man said disdainfully.
“Alright, then I’ll keep it. Remember to apply it in the evening.”
“Mhm.”
After leaving the dermatology department, Gu Xiuting was ready to take her downstairs. They still had to rush to the banquet.
“Xiuting, go wait for me in the car for a bit. I just remembered, I have a good sister who works as a doctor in this hospital. I want to say a few words to her,” Bai Man said.
“Let’s talk another time, we might be late if it’s any later.”
“I’ll only say a few words, really quick. You go to the car first, don’t worry!” Bai Man smiled and blew him a kiss.
With her smile, Gu Xiuting’s heart melted. He nodded, “Then I’ll wait for you in the car, don’t talk for too long.”
“Don’t worry, don’t worry,” Bai Man said with a smile.
Only then did Gu Xiuting leave the hospital, went down the elevator, and got back in the car.
Gu Xiuting had no sooner left when Bai Man turned and went to a lounge.
The doors and windows of the lounge were all shut tight, not letting any air through, and there was a faint smell of disinfectant inside.
As the door opened, a female doctor sitting inside appeared visibly nervous, her hands still holding a sealed tote bag.
Bai Man entered and immediately shut the door behind her.
“Miss Bai, you finally arrived,” the female doctor said with a panicked and uneasy expression.
“What’s the hurry? I’m right on time, aren’t I?” Bai Man said nonchalantly, “It’s not like we’re doing anything illegal. Do you really need to be this nervous?”
Bai Man chose a spot and sat down with an expressionless face, appearing much more composed compared to the female doctor.
The female doctor’s hands were slightly shaking as she handed the contents of the tote bag to Bai Man, her voice trembling noticeably—clearly overawed by Bai Man’s powerful presence.
“Miss Bai, everything you requested is in there, nothing’s missing.”
Bai Man took the bag but didn’t open it, instead keeping the tote just as it was.
“Look at you, so nervous,” Bai Man said, “What if you make me nervous too? It’s just a trivial matter.”
“Miss Bai, is there anything else? If not, I should get back to my department; there are patients waiting,” the female doctor said, standing in a fluster.
She was eager to leave, not wanting to engage in further conversation with Bai Man.
“You may go,” Bai Man said with a casual wave.
With permission granted, the female doctor hurried out of the lounge without looking back, her face pale with fright.
Bai Man sneered. Was she really that scary?
She glanced at the tote bag on the table, didn’t open it, but picked up her phone to make a call.
“Will, are you there?”
“Yes, Miss Bai.”
“The C City First Hospital, female doctor with staff ID ××××, make sure it’s cleaned up without a trace.”
“Understood, Miss Bai.”
Bai Man ended the call, gathered her long hair slightly, and checked her reflection in her makeup mirror before confidently walking out of the lounge with the bag in hand.

Upon leaving, she looked as composed as if she had merely returned from a quick trip to the bathroom.
Sure enough, downstairs, Gu Xiuting was waiting for her in his Lamborghini.
Bai Man smiled, “I told you it would be quick.”
“What’s in the bag?” Gu Xiuting asked curiously upon seeing her come down with the tote.
“She brought some local products for me,” Bai Man replied, “said I rarely come back to C City and insisted on giving them to me, so I accepted.”
“Oh, come on, get in the car,” Gu Xiuting said.
Bai Man got into the car, and once settled, Gu Xiuting started the engine and drove towards the hotel.
The hotel exterior was bustling, usually hosting foreign dignitaries and important banquets, but today, it had been booked entirely by Shen Group.
The exhibition sale wasn’t completely over, with the product displays of various groups and companies scheduled for the afternoon at the national exhibition hall.
Only after the evening’s wine reception would the exhibition sale be considered a complete success.
As soon as Bai Man got out of the car, a crowd of reporters swarmed her, and maintaining an appropriate smile, she walked into the hotel arm-in-arm with Gu Xiuting.
“Welcome,” the doorman greeted them with a respectful bow.
They naturally headed for the elevator, and although many CEOs from different groups had left and the crowd had thinned, the enthusiasm remained undiminished.
Upon entering the hotel, someone guided them towards the banquet hall since the meal was about to begin, and they needed to take their seats promptly.
