Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 560: Chapter 560 Accompanying the Beauty, Touring Zhongjing_1

A real man should keep his word!

After hanging up the phone, Bai Xiaosheng silently put down his mobile phone.

However, I had just returned from Tianqing to Zhongjing, and I had agreed to start work tomorrow. On the very first day of work, I have to go shopping with a young lady. If someone discovers this, how can I, as the General Manager, command the respect of others and lead my subordinates!

Bai Xiaosheng was on the verge of tears.

”That’s why you must never get distracted while on the phone, or else the consequences can be quite serious!”

Bai Xiaosheng let out a long sigh.

Naturally, he couldn’t call Mo Xin back to refuse her invitation, so he simply tossed his phone away, threw himself onto the bed without a care, and decided to take a nap and empty his mind.

Bai Xiaosheng slept very soundly, until almost dinner time, when he was awakened by his mother Li Qiuyun knocking on his door.

During dinner, Bai Minghang made a point of discussing a few matters.

While Bai Xiaosheng was sleeping, the Li Family had made several calls. Some were for his grandmother Li Fengguan, and some were for his father Bai Minghang.

They were all repeated apologies for today’s events, hoping the Bai Family would let bygones be bygones.

Not a single call came for him personally.

It seemed that the Li Family was choosing a roundabout strategy.

Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but crack a faint smile.

”This time, even your aunt Yu Qingmei took the initiative to call, lowering her stance with an incredibly soft attitude, and asking your grandmother to forgive and forget,” Bai Minghang said with evident satisfaction, smiling, ”Your grandmother told me that your aunt has never spoken with such an attitude and tone before.”

Bai Xiaosheng shook his head slightly, ”The Li Family, being able to shamelessly reiterate their stance in person, they really know how to swallow their pride!”

”It’s all because they’re looking at your face, considering their interests,” Bai Minghang glanced at his son and chuckled, ”In the end, it’s my son who has made a name for himself! They are eagerly trying to curry favor with us. Your grandmother said that as far as family relations go, we’re still relatives. But if they have any requests, you should do as you see fit, without needing to tiptoe around because of her!”

The old lady was ready to move on.

”Good!” Bai Xiaosheng said in a single word.

”My son, the General Manager of Zhongjing Media, can even speak with the mayor, and now he is successful in his career!” Li Qiuyun said with a laugh from beside him.

Bai Xiaosheng chuckled, feeling proud, but also tried to show some modesty.

Yet, Li Qiuyun continued, ”Does that mean you should start considering personal matters? When are you getting married? When will you have children? If you feel that Yang Qian’er is not suitable, we won’t pressure you, but you should at least bring us a daughter-in-law!”

Li Qiuyun looked at her son eagerly.

Bai Xiaosheng’s smile suddenly became a bit stiff, and upon glancing at his father Bai Minghang, he saw that he too was looking at him intently.

He never imagined that he would find himself in the situation of being pressured to get married as a single adult...

Bai Xiaosheng felt bitter inside.

”Well, Dad, Mom, you guys go ahead and eat, I’m full. I’ll head back to my room now; I still have a report to finish...” Bai Xiaosheng quickly made an excuse and fled.

If outsiders knew that Bai Xiaosheng, who made a name for himself in Tianqing and Zhongjing, was being pressured to marry, who knows what they would think...

The night passed without conversation.

The next day, after Bai Xiaosheng had breakfast, he received a call from Feng.

The car had arrived.

Bai Xiaosheng said goodbye to his parents, went downstairs, and easily found his car to return to Zhongjing Media.

After arriving at the office, Lin Weiwei was the first to report to him.

During the three days Bai Xiaosheng was away, the company maintained smooth operation thanks to the effort of the assistants.

Bai Xiaosheng looked through the reports, extremely satisfied.

After dealing with some matters, and as it was nearing ten o’clock, he called Lin Weiwei over.

”Well, Weiwei, I have something to take care of today and need to step out for a bit. Keep an eye on things here at the company, and call me if there’s any issue!” Bai Xiaosheng told her with a smile.

”Ah, okay then. You go ahead,” Lin Weiwei nodded, looking at Bai Xiaosheng with a perplexed gaze as he left.

”Why do I get the feeling that Xiaosheng is acting like he has a guilty conscience...” Lin Weiwei muttered to herself with utter confusion.

Bai Xiaosheng went downstairs, didn’t take his own car, and hailed a taxi on the roadside, heading straight for the airport.

Upon arriving at the terminal building, he smoothly picked up Mo Xin.

Seeing Mo Xin again, her long black hair was waterfall-like, further accentuating her fair skin. A snow-white blouse on top, with dark blue jeans below.

Her simple attire somehow highlighted her charm all the more, making her look like a tranquil goddess and attracting the gaze of passing men one after the other.

As Bai Xiaosheng approached, he realized that this lady was indeed simply and refreshingly dressed, carrying just a small crossbody bag.

”You don’t have any luggage?” Bai Xiaosheng exclaimed in surprise.

It’s said that when women travel, they must bring bags big and small, all filled to the brim.

But this one, she had nothing at all, and she was alone—even her best friend didn’t accompany her.

”I’ve checked my luggage, and it will be sent directly to my hotel. Didn’t we agree that you’d accompany me shopping? What do I need luggage for?” Mo Xin said with a giggly smile.

That made things simple.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled, ”Alright, let’s go then!”

After picking up Mo Xin, they caught a taxi and headed straight for the city center.

Once they reached the destination that Bai Xiaosheng had requested, the two got out of the car.

Bai Xiaosheng acted as a guide, taking Mo Xin around to visit one historical site after another in the old city.

Cultural anecdotes and amusing tales flowed easily from Bai Xiaosheng, and the vivid stories combined with the sights in front of them left Mo Xin exclaiming in wonder.

As they passed through streets and alleys, Bai Xiaosheng always managed to find the most authentic and delicious local snacks hidden in the corners.

With tasty snacks, ancient sights, and a handsome guy telling her stories, the journey was delightful for Mo Xin, her smile blooming like flowers, her heart filled with joy.

However, on the street, men who saw the pure and goddess-like Mo Xin couldn’t help but shoot murderous looks at Bai Xiaosheng.

Before they knew it, it was noon.

Bai Xiaosheng invited Mo Xin to a very authentic small restaurant to try the local dishes, which Mo Xin repeatedly praised as delicious.

”How come you’re so familiar with the tourist routes? You don’t seem like someone who has a lot of time to travel. Could it be that you’re considering a career change, from general manager to tour guide?” Mo Xin teased.

Bai Xiaosheng chuckled, nodded his head, and said earnestly, ”Possibly.”

Mo Xin looked incredulous.

In reality, Bai Xiaosheng knew nothing about these places two hours ago. The reason he could pull off such a knowledgeable front was entirely thanks to Red Lotus’s powerful search capabilities—though he said he was taking Mo Xin out, it was also his first time exploring these places.

”Oh, I want to go somewhere later,” Mo Xin said with a smile. ”I heard that the flagship store of the age-old Yutianxiang is right here in Zhongjing. I want to check it out!”

Yutianxiang, an ancient brand of rouge and powder, has a history of over a hundred years and is now listed as a national key protected brand, having won numerous international awards.

”Sure, having a destination makes it even easier,” Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.

After lunch, the two set off for the flagship store of Yutianxiang.

At this very moment, outside the Yutianxiang flagship store.

A tall man with long legs and fairly spirited looks paused in front of the entrance, glanced at the sign, and stepped inside.

”Hello, sir, can I help you with anything?” a store attendant approached.

A man visiting a makeup store alone was indeed a curiosity.

”Show me some good products; I want to buy a gift,” the man said lightly.

”Right this way, please.” The attendant was extremely enthusiastic.

The man followed, muttering to himself in a voice only he could hear.

”Mo Xin likes these things, if I give her this, she can hardly refuse me this time!”
