Her mother"s words caused Bai Yiyan"s expression to stiffen. She looked at her mother in disbelief. "Why do you ask this?"
The lady in white sighed, "Don"t think that mother is blind. I can see that he is interested in you."
Bai Yiyan s.h.i.+vered all over as soon as she heard that, an uncomfortable feeling churning through her heart.
"Mom, I"ve always treated him like my big brother. Can you not say that?" Bai Yiyan had truly respected him as her brother all along. She never thought that her mother would actually pair them up.
Seeing her daughter"s disgust, her mother immediately comforted her, "Alright, alright, alright. Don"t be angry. I"m doing this for your own good. Seeing that you"ve been depressed recently, I hope someone can take care of you."
"Mom, don"t bring up this matter when he arrives!" Bai Yiyan said with a serious expression.
"Don"t worry, I won"t mention it anymore. Actually, I feel that he isn"t suitable for you!" In her mother"s eyes, Pei Luoqing was not worthy of her daughter. Pei Luoqing was just a university professor and received a dead salary, although his family background was not bad, it was impossible for him to develop and become rich. She was living the life of a rich woman, so she naturally hoped that Bai Yiyan would not have to worry about money in the future.
Bai Yiyan turned around and walked back to her room. As she was pa.s.sing by the stairs, she heard the sounds of her two brothers fighting and crying. She couldn"t help but sigh and shake her head.
When she opened the door to the room, Pei Ying was sitting on her bed, looking at her arrogantly.
"What are you doing in my room?" Bai Yiyan"s room was the smallest and darkest room in the house.
Previously, Pei Ying didn"t want to come to this corner, because she felt unlucky.
However, she had a request for Bai Yiyan today, so she still made a trip.
Sure enough, after not living in a room for too long, there was a feeling of humidity that caused her to feel uncomfortable all over.
"Elder sister, don"t be so cold. There shouldn"t be any deep grudges between us, right?" Pei Ying tried her best to force out a few fake smiles.
However, Bai Yiyan ignored her and sat down on a nearby chair. She took out her cell phone, intending to brush up on new things.
Pei Ying stared at the phone and her eyes lit up. Then, she thought about whether she should secretly look through her phone to find Ji Yueze"s number. But after thinking carefully, she felt that there was no need to be so sneaky.
As long as she opened her mouth, would Bai Yiyan dare to refuse?
"Sister, you should have Ji Yueze"s phone number, right? Can you give it to me?" Pei Ying asked for it boldly and confidently.
Bai Yiyan raised her head and swept a cold gaze over her. "No!"
In the past, Bai Yiyan didn"t have the confidence, but now, she felt that why did she give her boyfriend number to another woman so easily?
The atmosphere turned awkward as Pei Ying"s expression darkened to the end.
He didn"t expect Bai Yiyan to directly give him that word.
"Bai Yiyan, you just can"t see me, can you? You have to know, you ate with your mother at my house. You live at my house and use my family"s food as well, so now that you pretend to be arrogant with me, aren"t you acting a little too arrogantly? " Pei Ying immediately pointed angrily at her and screamed.
Bai Yiyan wanted to cover her ears and not listen to her.
However, blocking one"s ears was useless.
Bai Yiyan had already heard these words countless times. It seemed that Pei Ying would always use these words to stop her every time they argued.
"My mom is your dad"s wife. It"s legal for her to use his money, but don"t forget that my mom gave him two sons. It"s even more legal!" Bai Yiyan raised her head and answered word by word. There was no trace of the cowardly look she had when she was young.
Bai Yiyan"s words rendered Pei Ying speechless.
Then she got even angrier. "What about you? What right do you have to use my family"s money? "
"Based on the fact that I"m my mother"s daughter, I used the money my mother gave me!" Bai Yiyan answered confidently.
Pei Ying was furious again, "That shameless woman only knows how to use these two sons of yours as an excuse. Every day, she uses my father"s money to disguise herself as a n.o.ble lady, but, how could I not know her background? A b.a.s.t.a.r.d like you who came from who knows which ravine! "
"Pah!" Just as Pei Ying finished scolding her, Bai Yiyan swiftly slapped her face.
Pei Ying"s mind went blank as she felt pain on her face.
"You dare hit me?" Pei Ying could not believe it. Since she was young, Bai Yiyan did not even dare to move her fingers.
Bai Yiyan glared at her coldly and viciously as she warned her, "If you scold my mother again, I"ll tear your mouth apart today!"
Pei Ying couldn"t even curse a single word after she was warned like this. She opened her mouth wide, not knowing whether to cry or curse.
Bai Yiyan stared at her coldly and said, "Do you want Ji Yueze"s number? "Stop dreaming, I won"t give it to you. In the past, you can s.n.a.t.c.h anything that belongs to me, but he ?? you can"t s.n.a.t.c.h it away. Do you remember that?"
Pei Ying had never seen such a fierce expression from Bai Yiyan before, so she was stu
ed again.
Then, she suddenly covered the side of her face that had been slapped, and ran outside while crying.
Bai Yiyan"s head hurt a little. She didn"t expect Pei Ying"s greatest ability wasn"t to bully her, but to complain.
At this moment, she covered the evidence of her beating. She was afraid that she wouldn"t be able to properly eat lunch today.
As expected, very soon, Sorrowless came up together with his fl.u.s.tered mother and Pei Ying, who was crying pitifully.
"Yi Yan, did you hit Xiao Ying? Why aren"t you apologizing to her?" As soon as her mother went upstairs, she went up to question Bai Yiyan without waiting for Pei Hong to speak. Although her voice was soft, it was obvious that she was still a little uneasy.
Bai Yiyan said lightly, "That"s right. She was disrespectful to me, so I hit her!"
"Bai Yiyan, how did my daughter offend you? Can"t you scold her a bit? Why did you hit him? Do you see what you did to her face? " Pei Hong"s heart ached as he looked at his own daughter"s swollen face.
Bai Yiyan had indeed used a fierce hand just now. Moreover, she had practiced Taekwondo, so when she attacked, her strength was naturally a bit heavier than that of an ordinary person"s.
Half of Pei Ying"s face was numb, which was why she cried like a victim.
However, Bai Yiyan said coldly, "My mouth is stupid. I can"t scold her, so I can only make use of my strong points!"
Everyone knew that Bai Yiyan practiced martial arts. That was why Pei Ying could only speak quickly in front of her. She didn"t dare to fight with her, because she would always lose when fighting with Bai Yiyan.
Her mother, who was beside her, was worried and scolded her lightly, "Xiao Yan, what nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and apologize to Xiao Ying. Beating people up is your fault."
