Bai Yaoyao lowered her head and smiled embarrassedly.

The servant arranged the tableware on the table and continued with a smile, "Young Master Qu woke up early. It was just dawn, so Nuo left with him. "Ai, actually, Young Master Qu's achievements and position are not easy to achieve. He can do it alone …" Bai Yaoyao said as she sat down at the table after the servants set the tableware.

"Speaking of which, I served the old lady in the ancestral residence before. When the old lady felt that I was doing something appropriate, she sent me to take care of Young Master Qu, who is only nineteen years old …"

Bai Yaoyao looked at the chattering servant and thought back to Nanny Zhou, who had been very good to her since she was young. She took a sip of her milk and smiled as she chatted with the servant, "Looks like you've been here for a long time. It's not easy to take care of that ice cube."

The servant in front of her covered his mouth and laughed. The other women tried all sorts of ways to please Young Master Qu and said that they were all good and obedient, but this lady was completely different from them. No wonder Young Master Qu liked her so much.

"Actually, I heard from the old lady that Young Master Qu was not like this since he was young, and he was quite lively and cheerful. Although he was much more mature than an ordinary child, he was also very smart, sigh, everything is fate. Young Master Qu is also pitiful …" The servant said as he sighed.

Bai Yaoyao suddenly remembered that she had never heard Qu Ruo talk about her parents. Moreover, there was only one old lady at the ancestral home, and she was Qu Ruo's grandmother. Then what about his parents? Did he disappear a long time ago? Or perhaps, like him, he wouldn't be able to see it.

"Miss Bai, I can tell that Young Master Qu really likes you. Unlike before, he has never brought those women back here. Even if it was other houses, they rarely brought them back, they only stay for a few minutes at most. Actually, it's fine to tell you. When Young Master Qu's parents were 15 years old again, they left in a huge car accident. Young Master Qu's only sister was also heavily injured and rolled into the sea, disappearing without a trace. Young Master Qu had watched all of this happen … "

"This …" Bai Yaoyao's hands suddenly stopped moving. Her fork fell onto the plate, making a "clang" sound. This sound was like something that struck directly into her heart.

He had never said these words to her, nor had he shared these secrets in his heart. Did he not want to tell her? Or was he truly unwilling to talk about it?

He looks like a man who will always be cruel and ruthless, and always have a cold face. Such a man, yet he has such a painful secret hidden in the depths of his heart." It turned out that Bai Yaoyao had never met Qu Ruo like this and did not understand him. She even felt that he was a stranger to her.

Just like what Xiaoxiao had told him before, Qu Ruo was able to reach his current status and status not only because of the strength of his Qu Family, but also because of his own methods and his wisdom in killing. Therefore, he did not share his secret with him, nor was he prepared to let himself into his true heart.

He was definitely interested in himself, and certainly interested in him. However, for such a man, his way of doing things was very clean and clean, and if one day the two of them really could not be together, he could smile and leave, marrying a lady of a noble family, but what about him, could he really put that aside? The great disparity in status, family background, these were all small matters.

Although Bai Yaoyao had not been good at Bai Family since she was young, she had learnt how to read people's faces. From Bai Zhenting, he knew that if one wanted to have a good future, they would have to sacrifice everything, including marriage.

Back then, his mother had married Bai Zhenting because his grandfather was one of the top figures in China.

But later on, he got married. His grandfather was framed, his grandmother died, the family property was divided between his uncles, and how Bai Zhenting treated his mother afterwards, and how he conceived the woman of another child. So, after so many years, he and his mother had such a hard time.

Bai Yaoyao realized that everyone could become a stepping stone for others in the world of these people. As for herself, she was willing to give up everything for her own future or higher status.

Not to mention Qu Ruo, what kind of person was he? Almost every day, they would meet each other in front of the public. His excellence and his family background all reminded Bai Yaoyao that she wasn't worthy of him! It was so simple that he couldn't even open a branch or scatter a leaf for the Qu Family …

As the servant chatted, she felt that she really talked too much. It seemed that she had also noticed Bai Yaoyao's abnormality. Originally, when she saw Young Master Qu being so fond of Miss Bai, she thought that Young Master Qu should have told her all of this.

"Miss Bai … Don't think too much into it. Young Master Qu didn't tell you and there's no other meaning to it, because this was originally a very secretive matter of the Qu Family. It's all my fault, I talked too much today." The servant looked like he had done something wrong as he apologised before the table.

The corners of Bai Yaoyao's mouth lifted in a forced smile. She said lightly, "It's alright. Don't worry. I won't speak carelessly. I know what I'm doing."

The conversation ended at this moment. She was the only one left in the room. It was so quiet that it was as if she could hear the sound of falling flowers outside the window.

Disturbance …

At that moment, a familiar ringtone came from the room.

She was surprised. Where did this phone come from? His phone had obviously been taken away by Bai Qianqian yesterday.

Bai Yaoyao stood up, feeling another pang of pain in her body, and opened the bedside cabinet. Inside was a new cell phone with four big words flashing on it: MY MAN!

She suddenly became confused. Is this Qu Ruo's phone? Who is my man?

The phone rang again and again. Bai Yaoyao thought for a moment, then picked up the phone and connected it to her ear.

"Why did it take so long to answer the phone?" On the other side of the phone, Qu Ruo's slightly impatient voice passed through first.

Bai Yaoyao came to realize that this was the new phone that he'd bought for her. "My man" referred to herself.

She snorted. Such narcissism!

"I'm eating …" Bai Yaoyao answered.

"Eat more. Tell Mann what you want to eat at home. She will tell the chef." Qu Ruo was concerned about her and told her that if she was not at the manor, the servants would treat her badly and not give her food, as if she was hungry.

"Yes, I'm full. I can't eat anymore." Compared to last night, she was like a completely different person.
