Rebirth: Pampered Wife’s Counterattack Chapter 613 – Change Surnames

Chapter 613: Change Surnames

Bai Chenxi stood behind the corner at the end of the hallway. As he listened to Grandfather Bai’s words, he clenched his fists tightly.

Did they deserve to suffer this humiliation simply because they were not of the Bai family’s bloodline? Frustratingly, despite how poorly Elder Bai treated them, he could not bring himself to let go of the wealth and glory which the Bai family gave him.

On the other hand, to Bai Qinghao’s Grandfather and parents, everything Bai Qinghao did was always correct.

He truly hated him!

One day, he would ruin Bai Qinghao and take possession of the entire Bai family’s wealth!

Bai Jingrou lowered her head. Although she felt especially humiliated, she similarly could not bring herself to give up the position and wealth which she enjoyed in the Bai family.

Although she was the Long family’s only successor, the Long family still could not compete with the Bai family.

Besides, the two statuses did not clash and they both had their own advantages.

Butler Bai Mingde approached them. His wrinkled face was covered in cold sweat as he explained to Bai Chongshan. “Elder, my apologies. This subordinate twisted his feet by accident earlier and Madam insisted on supporting me. I did not realise that it would cause such a misunderstanding. I trust that Miss Jingrou did not intentionally lead Miss Fang to bow towards Madam and this subordinate.”

Initially, this matter was hidden between the lines. However, he stepped forward and clearly put it out in the open.

Bai Jingrou’s expression turned poor. “Uncle De, you’ve misunderstood. I really didn’t intend for this to happen.”

Bai Mingde had worked for Elder Bai for most of his life. He was naturally loyal to a fault and was deeply respected in the Bai family’s old mansion. Thus, everyone had to address him as ‘Uncle De’.

Initially, he had been confused when Madam Huang Zhishu supported him for seemingly no reason.

Although he had a poor impression of Fang Xinxin at first, he now felt that it was the elder son’s family that had grown impatient from concealing their schemes for so many years. They were finally showing their true colours.

In the past, Fang Xinxin was on poor terms with everyone from the old mansion. She had also assumed that Butler Mingde was on Huang Zhishu’s family’s side. However, after observing the situation clearly, she realised that this was not the case.

In fact, Butler De noticed immediately that he had been used.

“Alright. I’ve already said everything that I need to say.” Bai Chongshan’s insightly gaze scanned Huang Zhishu and Bai Jingrou for a moment. “There’s no need to explain further. Remember your boundaries.”

“I understand.” Bai Jingrou and Huang Zhishu responded obediently.

Fang Xinxin suddenly felt very pleased.

In the past, she did not pay good attention to Bai Jingrou’s position in the Bai family and assumed that they had always doted on her. In contrast, she thought herself to be a proper outsider.

However, it seemed like that was not the case.

She stood on her tiptoes and whispered into Bai Qinghao’s ears. “Your grandfather and your parents are quite cute.”

A hint of a smile appeared on Bai Qinghao’s face. “I’m glad that you like them.”

In fact, he understood his grandfather and parents’ thoughts very well.

The Bai family’s business was enormous and its influence was overwhelming. As a result, it was inevitable that they had to deal with countless enemies outside.

They did not wish for there to be trouble at home as well.

However, his Uncle Bai Pu had refused to take their advice. Although the Bai family had a successor, he insisted on adopting Bai Chenxi and Bai Jingrou.

Of course, he was uninterested in what the two of them had been named prior to their adoption. After they entered the Bai family, their surnames were changed to ‘Bai’.

The Bai family’s wealth and power stirred everyone’s greed. The same went for Bai Chenxi and Bai Jingrou who had managed to officially step into the Bai family.

If they did not care for the Bai family’s power, the siblings would long have scrammed from this place. Why would they stay to endure an unfair treatment?

Back when Bai Pu had passed away, the Bai family had given Huang Zhishu and her children a sum of money and requested them to change their surnames. However, they had refused to do so.

They insisted that the Bai family was their home and refused to leave. It would have been fine if they were genuinely seeking a peaceful home. Unfortunately, each one of them hid their own ambitions.
