Yan Wanning flinched; she didn’t think that she would be busted so easily. She sighed and said to Bai iyue, "Co here and sit down; I have cooked so nourishing porridge for you with soymilk."
Though Bai iyue knew that her mother wanted to say sothing else, she still walked over to the table and sat down obediently. Yan Wanning served her a bowl of porridge before sitting opposite Bai iyue. She interlocked her fingers on top of the table before beginning to speak in a casual voice, "Your brothers have been looking around for clues for a while now, Yueyue."
Yan Wanning didn’t want to co out as soone who was accusing or questioning her daughter. She calmly looked at Bai iyue and tentatively said to her, "And they were able to find sothing through the grapevine of the company where you worked. This house, it wasn’t given to you by the company but you purchased it with the money that the man who took advantage of you gave you as compensation, right?"
Bai iyue was indeed clever with her words and she had indeed hidden a lot of things from her mother and two brothers but it was just as Lei Qian said, there was no fire that could be buried with paper.
The company employees knew the truth so even if Lu Ling arranged for the assistants to lie to Bai Zhan and Bai Jixuan, the workers wouldn’t. After all, they all liked to gossip about others and condemn those who were higher than them.
So, it was not difficult for the two brothers to find the ins and outs of the matter.
And not only did they find out that Bai iyue purchased this house with the money that she had received as compensation, they also found out who gave the compensation to her.
"It was Ah Qian who gave it to you, right?" Yan Wanning asked without beating around the bush.
Bai iyue paused in her actions of eating porridge; she looked up and asked with a frown, "Who are you talking about?"
"Don’t try to lie to , iyue!" Yan Wanning slapped her hands on the table. She understood the concern of her daughter; after all, Lei Qian was not a simple man. But that doesn’t give him the right to sleep with her daughter and take advantage of her youth like this before sending her packing with just a re monetary compensation.
She drew in a breath and said to Bai iyue, "Your brothers and I are going to talk with Ah Qian."
Bai iyue licked her lips uneasily; she had no desire to keep Lei Qian in her life. That man was ant for great things, whether before or after the apocalypse; if he stayed with her and Bai Cai, then she was worried that their lives would always be in danger.
"Mom, there is no need for you to talk with him. This matter is not his fault and he had already compensated enough—"
"Don’t even talk about yourself like that." Yan Wanning’s eyes turned red when she saw how casually her daughter was talking about such a horrendous incident. "You are not a low-class hooker who can be bought with money. And if Ah Qian thinks like that, then he has another thing coming for him."
Yan Wanning was like a momma bear who was about to fight to the death for her cub. Bai iyue didn’t even need to use her toes to know what kind of thoughts must be going through her mother’s mind right now. Bai iyue was certain that all the brownie points that Lei Qian earned by helping her mother and brothers last ti were now down the slump.
Indeed, Yan Wanning was no longer as optimistic about Lei Qian but what could she do? That man had taken advantage of her daughter so certainly he had to take responsibility for her daughter.
As for this house, even though it was a house that she and her sons could never even think of, they were going to return it. Her daughter’s virtue was not sothing that could be purchased through such a thing.
"Mom is right, Yueyue," Bai Jixuan had been working on the empty balcony and helping Bai iyue fix the greenhouse, which needed to be built on the empty space. But at the sa ti he was also paying attention to the conversation between his mother and sister. "Look at elder brother; even though he was sched against, didn’t he take responsibility for that woman?"
"If only I knew that it was that bastard who slept with you —" Bai Jixuan punched his fist in his palm and cursed through gritted teeth.
At first, neither of them suspected that Lei Qian was the one who slept with Bai iyue but these days they run into Lei Qian every now and then. Even though he seed busy, he would still stop and ask about Bai iyue’s condition.
They thought that it was due to the fact that the two of them were neighbours but soon they realised that there was sothing fishy about how nice Lei Qian was towards Bai iyue. After all, he would sotis bring so rare and expensive chocolates or seafood that Bai iyue liked.
He would also look at her with an expression that was full of guilt and they had caught him trying to talk to their mother many tis! If not for Bai iyue stopping him, they would have long found out about this ss!
They understood their sister’s concerns as well but the two brothers grew up with their mother and they had seen how hard life was for their mother after she was abandoned by her father.
The two brothers couldn’t watch their sister jump in the sa fiery pit as well, right?
And from the fact that Lei Qian ca to offer Bai iyue to work in his friend’s company, it could be seen that the man was not as irresponsible as they took him as.
If only they knew the truth earlier, then they would have long talked about whether Lei Qian wanted to take responsibility for their sister or not. Of course evading the responsibility was not an option.
That man would either marry their sister (daughter) willingly or they would make him!
