Was the man a scumbag who tricked her into marriage? A powerful man brought his child to her door de

Bai Xuxu and her group went to the VIP lounge.

Once the door closed, everyone sat down.

Xie Lanyuan said respectfully, "It is my honor that Elder Xie could come tonight. Regarding the matter we discussed earlier, which involved inviting He Xing to provide guidance to the Xie Group, I hope Elder Xie will agree."

"I can't make that decision. She's right in front of you. Ask her yourself." Xie Sheng glanced at Bai Xuxu.

Bai Xuxu belatedly realized that Professor Xie's attendance at the event was due to a personal invitation from Xie Lanyuan.

The content of their conversation was that they wanted her to go to Xie's company to provide guidance.

The crucial point is that Xie Lanyuan never mentioned this matter to her.

"Zhizhi, are you willing?" Even in front of Xie Sheng, Xie Lanyuan still called her by her nickname.

Xie Sheng knew about their past, but showed no surprise whatsoever.

Actually, at the time, he thought Shen Mohan was more promising.

It's unclear what happened, but Bai Xuxu suddenly got together with Shen Mohan and became pregnant. Then Shen Mohan left without saying goodbye, and their relationship ended abruptly.

To this day, Xie Sheng still feels it's a pity.

Bai Xuxu said with a haughty expression, "I don't want to."

They didn't consult her at all, and now they're just giving her a last-minute notice. Why should she agree to anything?

"This project happens to align with the anti-cancer technology we were researching before, which is why Lan Yuan thought of collaborating with our research institute to develop this technology together."

Seeing that Xie Lanyuan couldn't persuade Bai Xuxu, Xie Sheng could only step in and speak on her behalf, saying, "Lanyuan also wanted to give you a surprise, which is why he didn't tell you beforehand."

"Teacher, why are you siding with him? I am your student."

As for Xie Lanyuan, he is nothing.

Xie Sheng said, "The reason our research institute has a continuous stream of new equipment is all thanks to Lan Yuan's sponsorship."

Even though you've been gone for so many years, our research institute and the Xie family have always maintained a collaboration. The technology Lin Huan is currently researching is also a collaborative project between us and the Xie family.

Bai Xuxu turned to look at Lin Huan, "Is that so?"

Lin Huan shook her head. "I really don't know anything about this. It was a project that my teacher put me in charge of, and he never mentioned anything related to the Xie family."

Bai Xuxu had been by Xie Sheng's side for many years and knew that all the technologies Xie Sheng had discussed were classified projects.

She happened to get involved as well.

Therefore, He Xing's identity has always been protected by the state.

But their research institute has a collaboration with the Xie family, and none of them knew about it. Xie Sheng was keeping it a secret far too well.

"The Xie family's research lab has the latest experimental equipment imported from abroad, which is more sophisticated and complete than your research institute. If you do research here, you will definitely make new breakthroughs."

As Jie Lanyuan said this, he gently rubbed his foot against Bai Xuxu's calf.

His eyes were fixed on her, reminding her to give him some face.

Bai Xuxu deliberately avoided looking at him, but he brushed against her, and she couldn't help but cry out.

Lin Huan asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just got bitten by a mosquito," Bai Xuxu casually made up an excuse.

Lin Huan was even more puzzled: were there mosquitoes here?

However, Xie Sheng noticed their little actions. After coughing twice, he said, "Lan Yuan is right. Cancer treatment technology has been stuck at a bottleneck. If we had more advanced equipment, there might be hope for success."

"Currently, this technology is weak in China, and there is an urgent need to develop new technologies as soon as possible so that they can be used clinically."

Bai Xuxu naturally knew how much of a stir this technology would cause in the scientific and medical communities once it was developed, but she was angry that everyone had kept it from her and was only now being told the truth.

"I'll go back and think about it."

She wasn't about to agree so easily.

Xie Sheng understood her temperament and didn't say anything more. "Alright, you guys go out first. I have something to talk to Lan Yuan about alone."

Bai Xuxu wondered, what could they possibly talk about that required getting them away?

But she didn't ask any more questions and left with Lin Huan and the others.

The moment the door closed, Xie Sheng's expression changed instantly:

"Tell me, what's going on between you and Xuxu now?"

He couldn't ask too many questions while everyone was here, but now that they've all left, he's speaking frankly.

Xie Lanyuan didn't hide anything and told the truth: "Her marriage with Shen Mingzhou is fake. Shen Mingzhou used my information to register the marriage with her. In reality, I am her rightful husband."

"What did you say?" Xie Sheng was startled.

Jie Lanyuan explained the whole story concisely. Finally, he said solemnly, "We live together now, but she insists on finding out the identity of the person on the marriage certificate and then getting a divorce. So I haven't told her about this yet."

Upon hearing this, Xie Sheng fell into deep thought. After a long while, he finally spoke, "Xuxu is a stubborn child. If she finds out you've been keeping it from her, she'll definitely get angry with you."

"You should find an opportunity to confess this matter as soon as possible, lest things get complicated if you drag it out any longer."

Jie Lanyuan naturally understood and hummed in agreement, "I'll find a way to solve it."

……

In the banquet hall.

Bai Xuxu and Lin Huan were chatting for a while when they ran into some acquaintances. After exchanging a few words, Bai Xuxu made an excuse to leave first, leaving Lin Huan to deal with the people.

She was feeling a bit tired and wanted to find a place to sit and rest when suddenly her phone received a message from an unknown number.

Want to know who you married? Come meet me in Pingchang.

Bai Xuxu looked around. Shen Mingzhou was still wagging his tail at those celebrities and nobles, and the Yan family was also present, but Su Wanqing was nowhere to be seen.

Could it be Su Wanqing?

She replied: 【Who are you?】

The other party did not reply.

But soon after, Su Wanqing walked in from outside, and it was unclear what she talked about with Shen Mingzhou before she walked away with her phone.

It seems that the person who asked her to meet was not Su Wanqing.

Bai Xuxu was instantly intrigued; she wanted to see just who was behind all this trouble!

She put her phone away and slowly walked towards the open space outside.

This place was familiar to her; it was the spot where Jie Lanyuan had just forcibly kissed her.

However, to prevent the other party from playing tricks, Bai Xuxu took precautions before meeting them, just in case it turned out to be a trap.

Soon, she walked out of the banquet hall.

She walked a few steps along the corridor and smelled a very special fragrance.

Looking around, Bai Xuxu could clearly see many fresh bouquets planted all around her, illuminated by the bright moonlight and streetlights.

It is in full bloom and looks stunning.

Unsurprisingly, the fragrance is coming from these flowers.

She had barely stepped out the door when Xie Lanyuan rushed in for a kiss, and before she could even appreciate it, she received a call from Lin Huan saying that her teacher had arrived.

Unexpectedly, this place has a unique and beautiful scenery.

Bai Xuxu had no interest in appreciating the flowers. She took out her phone again to check the message, but the other party still hadn't replied.

She edited the text again and sent it out.

I've arrived. Where are you?

The messages remained unanswered, like a stone thrown into the ocean.

Bai Xuxu felt increasingly uneasy. Just as she was about to turn back, she suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.
