Chapter 31: You've Got Some Nerve

Bai Xiao Lian held Bai Chi's arm as they exited the milk tea shop.

Smiling charmingly at Wen Xiaoxiao, she spoke in a soft, sweet voice, "Miss, it's been a while. Can Bai Chi and I walk with you?"

Bai Xiao Lian wore a self-assured smile, gazing at Wen Xiaoxiao with pride.

Wen Xiaoxiao looked at her and scoffed, "I'm sorry, my mother only had me. Where did this little sister come from?"

"And I certainly won't take you with me. What's the connection between us?"

"Miss, how can you say that?" Her eyes reddened as she spoke softly, her voice gentle and weak.

She looked at Wen Xiaoxiao with a wronged expression, as though Wen Xiaoxiao owed her something.

Beside Bai Xiao Lian, Bai Chi's heart ached.

Looking at Wen Xiaoxiao with a displeased tone, he said, "How can you say such things about Xiao Lian? Don't be so rude."

Wen Xiaoxiao's eyes turned icy, carrying a hint of hostility. She mocked, "I'm being rude, huh?"

Don't you see how shameless Bai Xiao Lian is?

What is it?

When I was a teenager, Bai Xiao Lian's father was drunk and caused an accident, resulting in the deaths of my parents.

Do you think I would treat someone who caused my parents' deaths with kindness?

Not to mention, every time she approaches me, isn't it just to covet the property left behind by my parents?

So, isn't she the one lacking face?

Wen Xiaoxiao uttered these words, causing Bai Xiao Lian's face to turn even paler.

Before this, a memory from five years ago suddenly flashed through Wen Xiaoxiao's mind—the memory of a hotel room.

Looking at Bai Xiao Lian's gaze, her expression grew colder.

Bai Xiao Lian felt guilty under that gaze and leaned weakly into Bai Chi's embrace.

Wen Xiaoxiao let out a cold laugh and said, "I never realized how audacious your face is. You think I'd take you in? I've seen people with thick skin before, but never someone with skin as thick as yours."

Bai Xiao Lian, today I'll give you a piece of advice: "People reap what they sow. It's time to reflect on your actions."

"Today I spared you because I'm thankful that you gave me five children. But next time I see you, I'll make your life worse than death."

Bai Xiao Lian's face grew even paler at these words, and her body trembled slightly.

"Chi Ge, I'm scared..." Bai Xiao Lian clung to Bai Chi, her gaze secretly shifting towards Bo Yiliang standing beside Wen Xiaoxiao.

Hearing what Wen Xiaoxiao said, Bo Yiliang's brows furrowed involuntarily.

Seeing Bai Xiao Lian's provocative actions, Wen Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sneer.

Indeed, a true white lotus flower—disgusting to no end.

"Apologize to Xiao Lian," Bai Chi raised his chin, looking arrogantly at Wen Xiaoxiao.

"Apologize?"

"Hmph."

Wen Xiaoxiao disdainfully regarded Bai Chi, as if he were acting like a fool.

"Let's go!" Wen Xiaoxiao said to Bo Yiliang. She had no interest in getting entangled with these two.

It would be a waste of her time, and she felt a growing urge to just kill Bai Xiao Lian.
