Chapter 464 To Save Bai Luo

Chapter 464 To Save Bai Luo

Li Chenxu opened his lips silently. He wanted to tell Mu Xiaoyu that it wasn't like that, that he had only agreed out of desperation. But how could he say it? Should he say that Mu Xiaoyu's biological mother wanted him to divorce her?

Li Chenxu couldn't say such things, and perhaps if he did now, the conflict between him and Mu Xiaoyu would only deepen.

Seeing Li Chenxu's expression of wanting to explain but being unable to, Mu Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly showed a hint of impatience.

She gave Li Chenxu a cold look and went straight back to her room.

This time, however, she wasn't as heartbroken as usual. After returning to her room, she went straight to sleep. As soon as she entered the room, she turned on her computer and began searching for recent news about the Bai family.

If the Bai family is indeed under investigation now, and there is sufficient evidence, then there will definitely be news about it online.

Bai Luo did nothing wrong back then, and she didn't need to ruin her future for herself. So, before things got out of control, she had to find a way to get Bai Luo out of there and sever ties with the Bai family.

As expected, just as Mu Xiaoyu thought, she found some recent news about the Bai family online.

The reports Mu Xiaoyu found weren't particularly detailed, but they roughly described the Bai family's crimes of abusing their power for personal gain. Currently, the investigation is still ongoing, and the specific results are not yet available. However, since Li Chenxu was involved, the consequences for the Bai family will definitely be severe.

However... Mu Xiaoyu remembered that Li Chenxu had promised her that if Li Chenxu really won in the end, he would make an exception for her.

Originally, Mu Xiaoyu believed in Li Chenxu. She believed he could do anything he said. But now, she was starting to waver.

Mu Xiaoyu stared at the news on the screen in a daze for a while before shaking her head as if suddenly waking up.

The Bai family is now under investigation, and all members of the Bai family are under government control. At this time, it won't be easy for Mu Xiaoyu to see Bai Luo again. No wonder Bai Ye, who previously claimed to be pursuing Mu Xiaoyu, hasn't made any moves these past few days; it turns out this is the reason.

Sitting at her computer desk, Mu Xiaoyu felt a little lost, unsure of where to begin.

She hesitated and glanced at her phone. Without Li Chenxu to rely on, it seemed like she was nothing. She had no background or many connections. The only person she could rely on was probably Song Yin.

Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but want to laugh.

This time, however, she didn't hesitate for long before dialing Song Yin's number. The phone was answered after only a few seconds of ringing, and the next second, Song Yin's slightly lazy voice echoed in Mu Xiaoyu's ears.

"Why are you calling so late? Is there something good happening?"

Song Yin had always known that Gu Yeqi was pursuing Mu Xiaoyu. She also knew that Mu Xiaoyu wasn't as cold towards Gu Yeqi as she was towards others. So, in Song Yin's mind, there might really be a chance for Gu Yeqi and Mu Xiaoyu to be together. Therefore, when she spoke to Mu Xiaoyu, her tone carried a hint of teasing.

Even Mu Xiaoyu, who was feeling heavy-hearted at the moment, was amused by Song Yin's tone and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Song Yin, I do have something to tell you. However, it's not good news."

Upon hearing Mu Xiaoyu's words, Song Yin, who had been lazily lying on the sofa watching TV, immediately sat up straight. She gripped her phone tightly, frowned, and asked, "What exactly happened? What's going on? Did that bastard Li Chenxu cause you trouble again?"

"Not really... I called you because I wanted to talk about Bai Luo."

Bai Luo still remembers clearly how Bai Luo and Li Chenxu both betrayed Mu Xiaoyu. Now, when Mu Xiaoyu talks about Bai Luo, Song Yin immediately loses interest.

"Tell me, what happened to Bai Luo? Don't tell me she's in trouble and you're still thinking of helping her."

“Song Yin, listen to me, many things are not as you think.”

Song Yin is Mu Xiaoyu's best friend, so now that this has happened, Mu Xiaoyu doesn't hide anything from Song Yin and tells her everything that just happened, including why she insisted on having people follow Bai Luo and Li Chenxu.

After saying all this, Mu Xiaoyu paused for a few seconds before adding, "Actually, you know that no matter what the Bai family has done, Bai Luo has never wronged me. But now, she's risking everything for me. Song Yin, this time, I really can't remain indifferent. I have to save her."

It's unclear what Song Yin was really thinking; after listening to Mu Xiaoyu's words, she remained silent for a long time.

They both fell silent. Through the phone receiver, only their soft breathing could be heard, and time seemed to stand still for a moment.

Just when Mu Xiaoyu thought Song Yin would refuse or berate her, Song Yin suddenly spoke up: "What do you want to do? You just said that the government has already intervened in the Bai family's affairs. It's not so easy to make Bai Luo sever ties with the Bai family. Xiaoyu, whatever you want to do, I can unconditionally support you with all my might, but even if the Song family gives its all, it may not be able to help you with this matter."

Mu Xiaoyu understood this, of course, and she wasn't selfish enough to drag Song Yin into this mess.

So when Mu Xiaoyu called Song Yin, she just wanted Song Yin to do her a favor.

Mu Xiaoyu took a deep breath, looked at the closed door, and after a few seconds of silence, lowered her voice and said to Song Yin, "Song Yin, I'll figure out a way to deal with Bai Luo myself, but Li Chenxu will definitely get involved. Help me, stop Li Chenxu, and don't let her find out what I'm doing?"

"What do you want to do? Mu Xiaoyu, no matter what, you can't risk your life, you know? Think about what Bai Luo and the others are doing all this for. If you end up getting yourself killed trying to save Bai Luo, then what's the point of everything Bai Luo did before?"

Fearing that Mu Xiaoyu might do something foolish, Song Yin's voice deepened, and she issued a warning she had never given before.

Mu Xiaoyu wasn't angry at all; on the contrary, she was quite happy. She knew that Song Yin was acting this way because she cared about her.

She smiled gently at Song Yin on the other end of the phone and said, "Don't worry, I'm not that stupid. I won't waste everyone's efforts for me."
