Chapter 50: Who Slapped You? (1/2)

Translator: Peggyan and Ruriko

Lin Xiaomi sneakily pinched her thigh and found that it wasn’t a dream.

The man before her was real. Xue Haolin really came back.

Glad, excited, and at a loss, she was about to walk forward.

The next second, she saw that Xue Haolin carefully helped Lin Xin’er up with his eyebrows wrinkled and stared at Lin Xin’er up and down for fear that Lin Xin’er got hurt.

Lin Xin’er faintly snuggled against him and said to him with a smile, “I’m fine. I only grazed my hands.”

Lin Xin’er lifted her hands, revealing the dreadful cuts on her palms.

As his face immediately turned darkened, Xue Haolin held the hands of Lin Xin’er and visibly showed his worries.

He looked up again and fixated his eyes on Lin Xiaomi.

Lin Xiaomi instantly felt her heart flipped, and there was a sense of suffocation in her heart. As she wanted to say something, she heard Jiang Hui scream.

Lin Xin’er was hurt so badly because Lin Xiaomi pushed her. If Lin Yaoguo and Lady Lee learned this, Jiang Hui wouldn’t get away with it.

“Xin’er, are you okay?” asked Jiang Hui in terror.

Lin Xin’er in Xue’s arms said with a soft smile, “Auntie, I’m fine. I got cold feet, so this got nothing to do with Xiaomi. Don’t blame her.”

For outsiders, what Lin Xin’er said was nothing, but in the Lin family, it was the key testimony.

Lin Xin’er was so kind that she just covered it up for Lin Xiaomi.

As expected, Jiang Hui got her face instantly darkened and coldly looked at Lin Xiaomi before stepping forward to slap her.

Lin Xiaomi blankly stared at the man who hugged Lin Xin’er as if Lin Xin’er was his treasure. Why did he give her a cold shoulder?

He looked at her so coldly that she felt extremely panicked.

Before she resumed her consciousness, Jiang Hui slapped her on her face, turning her face to one side.

“You bastard!” rebuked Jiang Hui.

Lin Xin’er acted like she was stunned at the slap and hurriedly wanted to stop Jiang Hui but was blocked by Xue Haolin.

“Auntie, how could you slap Xiaomi? This really had nothing to do with her. I got cold feet, so I fell. It was not her fault. Please don’t wrong her.”

Jiang Hui said with a sneer, “Xin’er, you don’t need to cover it up for her. I knew clearly she bullied you many times as you grew up. It’s me to blame for not raising her well and making you suffer.”

Lin Xin’er still explained, but Jiang Hui didn’t listen to her.

Lin Xinaomi felt the great pain on her face, but she didn’t care about it, for such a matter used to take place in the Lin family.

She had been used to that each time something bad happened to Lin Xin’er, she would be to blame for it.

She just blankly stared at Xue Haolin and hoped to see something different on his face.

However, she didn’t find it.

Did he forget her?

She felt very sour, and the suffocation almost drove her crazy.

“Let’s get inside to clean them before applying medicine,” said Xue Haolin finally, but he said to Lin Xin’er, “You don’t need to care about the affairs of others.”
