Chapter 53: The Troubles Begin
"Keep your voice down..." Cheng Shishi’s voice grew louder, and Bai Yiran didn’t know how to explain the origin of her injuries to her. She could only say, "No, he didn’t hit me... I fell on my own."
"You sure fell across a large area..."
"It really was serious. I don’t want Grandma, Uncle, and Aunt to worry, so I’m staying at Lou Jing’s for a while. Once my injuries are better, I’ll go back. Don’t worry!"
"Are you sure it wasn’t Leng Yichen?" Ever since the scandal with Wang Manfei started, Cheng Shishi had stopped calling him brother-in-law.
"It wasn’t..."
"So how do you plan to handle your relationship with him? You can’t keep dragging it out like this!"
Bai Yiran let out a bitter smile, "Let’s just leave it like this for now. We haven’t known each other for long; maybe over time, he’ll decide to divorce me on his own."
Cheng Shishi felt sorry for her ill-fated cousin. Losing her mother early, being kicked out by her biological father at a young age, struggling to grow up and fall in love, she had her boyfriend stolen by that bitch Bai Qianyu. She thought that marrying Leng Yichen would mean she’d never have to worry again, but who knew Leng Yichen would turn out to be such a bastard!
"These clothes and things are from my mom. You need to take good care of yourself," Cheng Shishi handed Bai Yiran a large bag, "I’ll be going now. Take care of your injuries."
"Mm!" Bai Yiran’s eyes reddened. Grandma, Uncle, Aunt, and Cheng Shishi were the people who treated her the best in this life, and they were the most important family to Bai Yiran.
