”Don't be afraid, I'll immediately let you out.” Once they were outside the door, the noisy crowd dispersed. The voice that was as weak as a mosquito, yet exceptionally gentle, rang out from the door.
Accompanied by a few soft sounds of ”crackling”, the door slowly opened. Bai Luojin pushed open the door and walked out, coincidentally meeting a pair of familiar, wet, deer-like eyes.
Yin Lele? He really was an unexpected acquaintance.
”Sister-in-law?!” The little deer's eyes immediately widened, and it called out in surprise. However, it soon after, it blinked in puzzlement. Its clear eyes that were like grapes were filled with a flickering light:
”But sister-in-law, why are you here, and why are you being bullied by those bad people?”
”It's a long story.” Bai Luojin didn't have the patience to explain so many things to Yin Lele. He only replied indifferently, paused, thought of something, and then opened his mouth again:
”Also, don't call me sister-in-law. I'm not used to it.”
”Arcanum!” Sensing Bai Luojin's cold attitude, Yin Lele's originally bright eyes instantly dimmed, as she lowered her head and replied in a low voice.
”Cough …” Glancing at Yin Lele's slightly aggrieved face, Bai Luojin felt an inexplicable sense of guilt for bullying a child. With a somewhat awkward cough, he took the initiative to ask:
”What about you? Why are we here? ”
Yin Lele looked to be around eighteen years old, and should be going to school, but he was already arranged to be at the company.
”Father said that it's useless for girls to go to school, so he asked me to come to the company early to study. In the future, he can help with the family business.”
Seeing that Bai Luojin took the initiative to converse with him, Yin Lele became happy again. Her eyes slightly curved as she said this with a smile, revealing a pair of shallow dimples on her cheeks.
As expected, after hearing that, Bai Luojin sighed in his heart. Previously, when he saw Yin Lele's father at the banquet, he felt that Yin Lele was an unreliable person.
Now it seemed like he was actually the same kind of trash as that old cunning fox Bai Ruochao. He was doing this for his own benefit, disregarding family relationships, using his children's, a despicable person who would use any means possible!
In a wealthy family, the innocent and pampered little princess had become a bunch of pitiful little sheep.
Perhaps her cowardice was also a way to protect herself.
Looking at Yin Lele's pure smile, which turned happy just because he took the initiative to converse with her, Bai Luojin's expression unconsciously turned gentle.
”Oh, so sister-in-law is the annoying bastard they were talking about?!” Yin Lele suddenly thought of something, knocked his head, and suddenly shouted out.
Just as he finished, he looked up to see Bai Luojin's slightly helpless face. Yin Lele immediately covered his mouth and shook his head frantically.
”Sorry, sister-in-law, it's not that. It's not that you hate them, it's that they said it. Ah, it's not that I'm complaining, I'm just speaking the truth. Aiya, that's not what I meant.”
As he explained everything in a fluster to the end, Yin Lele powerlessly lowered her hand, completely gave up on her own as she murmured:
