Rebirth: Pampered Wife’s Counterattack Chapter 888 - Happy Ending (11)

Jiang Xingnan's once-boyish face had matured noticeably. Though his temperament stayed as headstrong as before, he now radiated the fortitude to brave fierce tempests.

“Are you surprised to see me?” Jiang Xingnan's iconic grin stayed just as vibrant as always.

Fang Xinxin smiled. “It’s been a long time since I last saw you.”

“I've been overseas managing business for the last two years.” Jiang Xingnan admired her striking beauty. “I returned to visit Grandfather Bai, and you.”

Fang Xinxin recalled that Jiang Xingnan was Elder Bai Chongshan's godson. His visit to Elder Bai held no surprise.

“Your figure looks even more perfect now, and your beauty shines as brightly as ever.” Jiang Xingnan lavished her with compliments. “Such a shame. I planned to wait until you got booted from the Bai family, then kindly take you in. Never expected you'd turn out to be such a sharp businesswoman, the head of Jiao Yang Group, the Long Group's sole heiress, and the globally celebrated designer Alice. Bai Qinghao cherishes you immensely too. You've got an iron hold on being Madam Bai.”

“Back then, why did you think I wouldn’t last?”

“Because of Huang Zhishu and her children. They’re rotten to the core and concealed it masterfully. Lacking proof, I still knew you'd suffer under them. Who knew their plots would all unravel, leaving you totally unscathed.” Jiang Xingnan felt somewhat relieved as he pressed on. “Fang Xinxin, honestly, if you stay with the Bai family, I can't vie with Bai Qinghao for you. All I can do is send my best wishes.”

“Thank you.” Fang Xinxin smiled faintly.

His eyes drifted to her flat abdomen. “It's a shame, though. You two are so devoted, but no kids yet.” He switched topics. “I recall your brother's daughter has turned one year old.”

“That’s right.” She nodded. Little Aixin had reached one year old. Her brother's family thrived splendidly.

“If you two had a child as well, everything would be flawless.” Jiang Xingnan sighed.

Fang Xinxin seemed at peace with the situation. “Sharing this lifetime with Bai Qinghao already makes me utterly satisfied.”

In their prior life, Bai Jingrou's vicious plot had crippled her with paralysis and blindness. Bai Qinghao had then laid down his life to shield her.

During that desperate jump from the building, Xiang Feili's men had hunted them relentlessly.

This lifetime, she emerged not just safe but with Xiang Feili now loyally serving under Bai Qinghao.

Numerous past ordeals had been thoroughly overcome.

The Bai family's elders had stopped pressing her about having a child.

Could she really demand anything more?

Fang Xinxin steered the conversation elsewhere. “No more on that. Let's talk about you. You're not getting any younger. Time to find yourself a partner.”

He grinned. “If I encounter a woman as gorgeous and clever as you, I might give it a thought.”

No one quite like her existed, sadly.

He chose to let fate guide this, refusing to push it.

Fang Xinxin bantered casually with him a bit longer.

That evening, in the Bai family’s old mansion dining hall, a grand rosewood table brimmed with lavish delicacies. Braised pork, abalone, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, and more filled it. Every dish tempted the palate.

Bai Chongshan, Bai Qinghao, Fang Xinxin, Bai Hong, Ye Yunzhi, and guest Jiang Xingnan gathered around the table.

Bai Qinghao ladled a bowl of bird’s nest porridge for Fang Xinxin. The three elders kept piling extra dishes into her bowl.
