Chapter 479 Bai Luo's Suicide

Chapter 479 Bai Luo's Suicide

Li Chenxu had seen everything Mu Xiaoyu had done. Did he not know?

At that moment, Mu Xiaoyu was unaware that Li Chenxu felt like strangling her. However, this wasn't the time to dwell on such things. Li Chenxu released Mu Xiaoyu, his face grim, and pulled her back to his office.

After they sat down and their emotions gradually calmed down, he asked, "Tell me, what exactly happened? How did you escape?"

Upon hearing Li Chenxu's words, Mu Xiaoyu immediately turned to her primary objective. She gripped her water glass tightly and looked at Li Chenxu nervously, asking, "What are you planning to do about the Bai family? Can you help them?"

"Help them? Mu Xiaoyu, don't you know what the Bai family has done? It's enough to make them die several times over."

Li Chenxu spoke with a sneer, his heart filled with immense anger. He himself probably couldn't explain the source or cause of this anger. But one thing he was certain of was that he didn't want to hear Mu Xiaoyu say anything about helping the Bai family.

Fortunately, Mu Xiaoyu had prepared herself for being dealt with by Li Chenxu, so she wasn't discouraged by his sarcasm. She simply said, "I know you're angry with me, but Brother Chenxu, Bai Ye deliberately let me out today. The Bai family deserves what they've become, but Bai Luo is my friend, and I really can't just stand by and watch her get hurt. Even if everyone else ignores it, can't they at least help them this once, for my sake?"

Mu Xiaoyu asked very carefully; in fact, even now, as she said those words, she was somewhat conflicted. She even doubted whether what she was doing was right or wrong.

She didn't know what trouble this would bring to Li Chenxu.

Never before had Mu Xiaoyu hated herself so much, feeling like an unforgivable villain. She hadn't done anything wrong, yet she was always the one dragging everyone down.

That's bad enough, but now she actually wants Li Chenxu to help her. She feels a little shameless when she thinks about it.

But what else could she do?

Li Chenxu didn't speak; he simply stood in front of Mu Xiaoyu. At this moment, one was sitting and the other was standing. Li Chenxu looked down at Mu Xiaoyu, his eyes filled with disappointment, scrutiny, and contemplation, as well as some other emotion.

I don't know how long he watched, but just as he was about to speak, the company's internal phone suddenly rang.

Li Chenxu hesitated for a few seconds, then swallowed back the words he was about to say and turned to answer the phone.

Clearly, something bad had happened. After receiving the call, Li Chenxu's expression changed instantly.

Moreover, Mu Xiaoyu wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Li Chenxu glanced at her subconsciously when he heard the person on the other end of the phone speaking.

Could it be that she has something to do with this?

Mu Xiaoyu was a little puzzled, but she didn't interrupt Li Chenxu's call. After the call ended, she cautiously asked, "What happened?"

"I no longer need to get involved in the Bai family's affairs."

"Did someone help us?"

Mu Xiaoyu's face lit up with joy, but the joy didn't last more than a few seconds. When she saw the deep expression on Li Chenxu's face, her smile vanished.

If the Bai family were truly alright, Li Chenxu wouldn't have that expression on his face.

"Mu Xiaoyu, Bai Luo... committed suicide."

Li Chenxu found it difficult to speak, but such a thing couldn't be kept secret any longer. Besides, for Mu Xiaoyu, it was much better to know sooner rather than later.

Mu Xiaoyu seemed somewhat incredulous. Upon hearing Li Chenxu's words, her eyes widened suddenly, but only for a second or two. She forced a stiff smile and stammered, "Brother Chenxu, what are you saying? Even if you're joking, you can't joke about something like this, can you? I just saw Bai Luo yesterday. How could she possibly commit suicide? Besides, there's Grandpa Bai and Bai Ye. She couldn't possibly be leaving at this time."

Li Chenxu stared intently at Mu Xiaoyu, observing the expression on her face that was more painful than tears. After a long while, he said, "Do you think I would lie to you about something like this? I've been keeping an eye on the Bai family's movements. Originally, after you came out, I planned to have my people leave, but just as they were about to withdraw, something happened at the Bai family's place. Xiaoyu, Bai Luo is really dead. I'm not lying to you."

Mu Xiaoyu didn't speak, her eyes fixed intently on a certain spot in the room. Finally, she suddenly laughed, muttering, "Impossible, I don't believe it, how could she commit suicide, how could she..."

In reality, there's no such thing as impossible or impossible. The Bai family has reached this point, and apart from Bai Luo, everyone else is doomed. Even Bai Luo himself will probably not fare much better.

In fact, before Mu Xiaoyu went to see Bai Luo, Bai Luo had already had the idea of ​​committing suicide. However, she was still young and had a deep respect for life and death that ordinary people have, which made her hesitate.

Mu Xiaoyu's appearance gave her hope.

However, it was Bai Ye's kidnapping of Mu Xiaoyu that shattered Bai Luo's already meager hopes.

Bai Luo may appear to be a weak girl on the surface, but in reality, she is a strong-willed person at heart.

She didn't want to be a burden to Mu Xiaoyu and the others, so she could only end her life in this way.

In fact, Li Chenxu didn't need to ask around much; with a little thought, he could probably guess what was going on.

What Li Chenxu could guess, Mu Xiaoyu could naturally guess as well.

When she escaped from the Bai family, she had a bad feeling, as if something terrible was about to happen.

At that time, however, she did not think in that direction.

In retrospect, all of this seems to be a punishment for her.

If she had been just a little faster back then, perhaps the outcome would have been different.

That was a living, breathing life, and her best friend. It was gone in the blink of an eye. How could Mu Xiaoyu possibly accept it?

All her strength seemed to be drained away at that moment. Mu Xiaoyu swayed twice, and seemed about to faint the next second.

Upon seeing this, Li Chenxu quickly pulled the person into his arms. Even though Li Chenxu was angry, he still felt sorry for Mu Xiaoyu when he saw her like this. He wanted to say a few words to comfort Mu Xiaoyu, but how could a matter of life and death be resolved with just a few words?
