Chapter 397 - Confrontation
At night at the Bai family house, Bai Fen was restless about her daughter. She had in mind of calling to check up on her, but whereby she was being monitored in the house, was what made her restless. The worst was that she couldn't even slip away from anyone's sight to make the call.
The person Bai Fen was worrying about, was currently being given rules to obey.
"We can never sleep on the same bed, so you take the couch, that's your bed from now on." Yang Peng said to Bai Jun while pointing at the couch.
"What do you mean? Why do I have to be the one to sleep on the couch while you sleep on the bed?." Bai Jun asked with an unbelievable facial expression.
"Do you need to ask this question? This is my house, and as the visitor, I don't want you to sleep on the bed with me. I chose between the floor and the couch for you and decided that I should be more human. If you don't like the arrangements, you can go back to your Bai family to continue being the spoilt princess that you were, but that is if you will be accepted back into the house." Yang Peng said to her and walked away to change his clothes in the bathroom.
Bai Jun couldn't believe what was happening. Since she was born, when did she have to sleep on the couch at night? There was not even one time that it happened.
Of course, Bai Jun wouldn't like to stay on the same bed as him, but she was not expecting him to ask her to go sleep on the couch as she was thinking that he would still be annoyed with her and take one pillow and a blanket to go sleep somewhere else.
Now, it looks like she will be the one to suffer till the day they reconcile which was never going to happen or all through the time they stay married.
Bai Jun who has been mistreated for the last two weeks had no choice but to take a blanket to cover herself while laying on the couch to sleep.
On Monday when everyone returned to the office, Bai Jun noticed that she was receiving weird glances from her colleagues, and when she greeted any of them, they wouldn't reply to her, it was only a few that replied to her nonchalantly.
Bai Jun who didn't know the reason she was getting weird gazes, thought it was because she didn't go to her colleagues' to toast to them at her wedding. While thinking it was because of that, Bai Jun waited patiently till it was time for a lunch break to apologize to them and to explain things to them.
Going to the company's cafeteria for staff, Bai Jun saw her colleagues sitting there and talking. They were already eating, so she quickly went to pay for her meal and go to the table to join them.
Marié was not welcoming when Bai Jun came to join them. "What are you doing here?." She asked with a frown while the others looked on.
Bai Jun knew that all of them were angry with her, and had to explain things to them.
"Guys I'm sorry that I never came to greet any of you at my wedding. I was so busy and didn't have the time to finish greeting other guests as well. I'm really sorry." Bai Jun said in a pitiful tone.
"Zip it!" Marié said while rolling her eyes.
"Jun, do you take us all as fools or what?." Linda asked.
Now, Bai Jun began to wonder if she did any other thing apart from ignoring them at her wedding, because the negative energy she was getting from them, was high.
Before apologizing, she thought they would all understand how busy and tired she was, but it looks like reverse was the case.
"I said I'm really sorry. My mind was going through a lot of things that day. I'm sorry it will never happen again." Bai Jun said with creased brows as she tried to win back their favor.
"Why would it happen again, unless you plan to have another wedding." One of them said while rolling her eyes.
"No, that's not what I meant. I mean if I invite you for another function, I won't act like before, I will definitely treat you all well." Bai Jun said as she managed a smile.
"And you think if you send us an invite we will attend? No thank you, but we don't want to be associated with someone like you." Another said with a disgusted look on his face.
Now, Bai Jun was sure that something else happened that caused them to show her this side.
"Did I do something wrong again?." She asked in a slightly nervous tone.
Marié couldn't tolerate them wasting their time on Bai Jun, so she said after a scoff, "It is so surprising to find out that you are in love with our Big Boss. You are really uncultured."
You know what it feels like for your heartbeats to escalate, that was exactly what was going on with Bai Jun. Her heart was beating 5 times faster than normal, and she couldn't control it.
'How did they find out about this?'
'Did FangSu tell them about it? But FangSu doesn't know them.'
'How on earth did they find out about this?!'
Bai Jun's thoughts were in disarray as she thought hard about her how colleagues came to know of this secret. Everything changed after her wedding, so what happened when she wasn't watching?
"Seeing how you are shocked, this news must be true," Linda said and looked away.
Now, Bai Jun saw that she couldn't deny the truth, and it was not going to help even if she did. She couldn't deny it, because she didn't know he they found out about it, and seeing how sure they were, denying it would be a foolish act, so she optioned to admit to it.
After releasing a deep breath, Bai Jun glanced at them and said, "It's true!"
