382 No One Is Allowed to Bully Her Except Me 15 (2/2)
”Although she's the greatest suspect in this matter, I don't wish to pinpoint anyone before finding the appropriate evidence. Besides, there are indeed many people who wish death upon me.”
”It's your call then, we won't act rashly for now.”
”Yes,” An Xiaoning assented with a nod.

During noontime, Jin Qingyan proceeded to pick Jin Bao'er up from her school before sending her back to his house. Along the way, Jin Bao'er constantly asked about her mother's whereabouts and why she was not there to fetch her.
Jin Qingyan did not explain initially and waited 'til they were home to tell her that her mother was injured. Contrary to his expectations, Jin Bao'er continued to bombard him with more questions after his explanation.
”Why is Mommy injured?”
”Uncle, answer me, quick.”
”Are Mommy's injuries serious?”
”Which hospital is she at now? I want to see her.”
”Uncle, say something.”
”…”
Jin Qingyan would never tell her that her mother was injured because of An Xiaoning. Noticing that she was crying uncontrollably, Jin Qingyan had no choice but to squat down and say, ”Your Mommy is alright, she's already returned from the hospital. She's in the room now. Go take a look.”
Jin Bao'er hurriedly zoomed towards the room.
”Mommy!”
”Bao'er. You're home?” said Jin Qingyue, who was leaning against the bed head.
”Mommy, how did you get injured?”
”Um, it's nothing much. I just fell down accidentally.” Jin Qingyue decided to hide the truth, knowing that Jin Bao'er would definitely resent An Xiaoning, given her petty character.
”Mommy, don't fall down again anymore. Does it hurt?”
”No, it doesn't.”
”…”
An Xiaoning stood by the door while holding a bowl of porridge in her hands. She seemed to have witnessed an eye-opener. To her surprise, Jin Qingyue had matured greatly over the years and begun sparing a thought for others.
Her repulsion and resentment towards Jin Qingyue seemed to vanish slowly.
She entered the room while Jin Bao'er exited.
Little did she know, Jin Bao'er remained standing by the door instead of leaving.
”I'm so sorry. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have gotten injured.”
”Sis-in-law, don't say that. Brother is so nice to me, what I've done is nothing much.”
”…”
Jin Bao'er was rather infuriated to hear their conversation and stormed off quickly. At the same time, Fan Shixin returned with the three children, who alighted from the car merrily while carrying their backpacks on their shoulders.
Jin Bao'er walked towards An Youqing and said, ”Do you know that my Mommy got injured because of your Mommy?”
Shaking his head, An Youqing asked, ”Auntie is injured?”
”Yes. She even hid the reason from me. If my Mommy dies because of your Mommy, I'm going to kill the both of you!”
Before An Youqing coud even respond, Long Xiaoxi interjected with a frown on her forehead, ”Isn't she still alive? Sis Bao'er, you're not allowed to speak to Brother Youqing like that!”
”It's none of your business!” Jin Bao'er snapped, pushing Long Xiaoxi away.
Deeply infuriated, An Youqing helped Long Xiaoxi up and bellowed, ”Are you done talking!?!”
”No!”
Long Xiaoxi stood up from the ground and hissed, ”How dare you push me. I'm going to kick you!”
Just as Long Xiaoxi was raising her chunky leg, Jin Bao'er grabbed her and threw her onto the ground, causing her to wince in pain.
”No one is allowed to bully Xiaoxi except me. Yet, you actually dared to bully her. Watch out, I'll beat you into a pulp and make you cry!” An Youqing hollered, boiling with fury.
