Chapter 540: Kneel!

“No matter who won or lost between the two of you, the agreement should be fulfilled.” Bai Qinghao appeared as though he did not know about the result.

The Bai family’s status and power were extraordinary. If Xinxin had lost, he would not have minded carrying out some underhanded tricks. But if his own woman won, he would not allow anyone to criticise them for bullying Fang Manxue.

Some people enjoyed pretending to be speaking out in the name of justice. This was most suitable for this situation.

A reporter spoke up in excitement. “CEO Bai, Fang Manxue was the one who lost.”

Fang Manxue looked at Bai Qinghao with a pitiful expression. “CEO Bai, I was simply joking around with my third sister. Even if her grades are better than me, this was only a joke. There shouldn’t be a need for me to kneel down.”

She had admired Bai Qinghao since she was young. Kneeling down before Fang Xinxin, the person she looked down on the most, while her idol was watching would be worse than killing her!

Bai Qinghao lifted his brows. “If Fang Xinxin had lost, would you have let her off?”

“I…” Fang Manxue wanted to lie, but was cut off by Fang Xinxin. “Of course not. The agreement was made between the two of us. She has already invited reporters to capture the sight of my humiliation. How could she possibly have let me off? Fang Manxue, please fulfill the agreement.”

“The agreement was made in front of me.” Bai Qinghao’s voice was as cold as ice. “Since I had agreed to act as a witness, I will not allow either of you to go back on your words.”

This meant that if Fang Manxue did not carry out her promise, she would be offending him.

The consequences of offending Bai Qinghao…

No one had the ability to withstand it.

Fang Manxue’s complexion was even worse than that of a corpse. She saw that a crowd was gathering around them. There were schoolmates and passerbys…

She bit her bottom lip and knew that there was no use convincing Bai Qinghao.

She turned to Fang Xinxin pitifully. “Third Sister, let’s forget about the agreement. I was wrong…”

The cameras were still recording the entire scene. Fang Xinxin also put on a similarly upset expression. “Fang Manxue, if, for even a moment, you had thoughts about letting me off, I would have given in. But you backed me into a corner, inviting all these reporters and acting as if you were ready to crush me beneath your feet. You and Mom have cheated over a billion dollars from the Sheng Shi Group. After that incident, I begged Bai Qinghao to let the both of you off. When you pretended to be Bai Qinghao’s fiancée, I begged him again on your behalf. Even when the both of you came up with a fake accident to claim that I was unfilial, I still asked Bai Qinghao to forgive both of you… Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me thrice… I will no longer take our relationship into account.”

“You never once begged him on our behalf!” Fang Manxue criticised her mercilessly.

Her expression was fierce. “Otherwise, I wouldn’t be in such a sorry state!”

Compared to her loss of control, Fang Xinxin appeared composed. “What do you mean by ‘sorry state’? You’re living well and are standing here unharmed. If I didn’t beg him on your behalf, wouldn’t you be reflecting on your deeds in prison right now?”

“Fang Manxue, you should just kneel down. Accept your loss gracefully. You were the one who tagged Fang Xinxin in the school forum and asked her to wait to kneel in front of you.” One of the schoolmates mocked her. “Now that you’ve lost, you can’t run away from your responsibility.”

“Indeed. Mistakes shouldn’t be endured more than once. If someone like you doesn’t kneel, there’ll be no more right and wrong in this world!” One of the passers-by spoke up and everyone began expressing their agreement.

“Fang Manxue, hurry up and kneel! Kneel!” All the people surrounding them began shouting at her.

Fang Manxue watched Bai Qinghao’s graceful and noble figure with dazed eyes. She then turned to the crowd who was backing her into the corner. Their looks of disdain…

She recalled the video of her and Bai Chenxi that was exposed. To think that now she had even lost publicly to Fang Xinxin.

Her rage and frustration took over her and the pressure caused her feet to weaken. She fell on her knees before Fang Xinxin.
