When I got to the living room downstairs, I saw Grandpa, Dad, and others were there, and even my brother Haiyang had returned, but Bai Chenyao was nowhere to be seen.
Out of nowhere, Tian Tian recalled the words Bai Chenyao said before he left.
"Tian Tian, the one who’s always breaking promises is you!"
When did she ever break promises?
A flash of mory struck her; things she had said to Bai Chenyao before, for instance: we’re in this together.
But why did she say that back then?
Wasn’t it because Bai Chenyao was pushing too hard, making her feel weak all over and her legs turn to jelly, that she had to raise a white flag and negotiate?
If it was because of that, Tian Tian scoffed.
Subconsciously, she felt there must be another reason Bai Chenyao threw out those words so inexplicably.
But why?
She racked her brains but couldn’t figure it out.
"Tian Tian, what are you thinking about?"
Haiyang had called Tian Tian three tis, and seeing his sister with a furrowed brow lost in thought, he couldn’t help but be curious.
He even walked over and gently patted Tian Tian on the shoulder.
Tian Tian was slightly stunned and then snapped back to reality.
"Brother!"
Wasn’t he sitting on the couch? Why is he here now?
Seeing his sister co back to her senses, Haiyang smiled indulgently.
"I’ve called you several tis, but you didn’t answer, so I ca over to see what you were thinking about."
Tian Tian laughed awkwardly and saw Grandpa and Dad on the couch looking her way, making her even more embarrassed.
She coughed twice and quickly smiled to explain.
"It’s nothing, I just spaced out completely."
Haiyang gave her a look that said, "keep making things up," and turned back with a laugh.
"Why didn’t you go see Chen Yao off?"
Tut!
See Bai Chenyao off?
His long legs walk so fast; her short legs couldn’t keep up.
And who would have thought after saying that, Bai Chenyao turned coldly and left right away?
When she chased after him in disarray, what would that have looked like?
Needy, so that Bai Chenyao won’t leave but get it on one more ti?
Thinking about it was already enough!
Before Tian Tian could speak, Old Madam Mu on the sofa couldn’t help but sneer.
"Most likely she upset Chen Yao, otherwise, how could he leave just like that after agreeing to stay for dinner?"
The smile on Haiyang’s face faded as he looked coldly at Old Madam Mu.
Old Madam Mu’s gaze also sharply targeted him.
Clearly a biological grandson, but in Old Madam Mu’s eyes, Haiyang was akin to an enemy.
Just as Haiyang was about to speak, Mu Qinghan, who had been quietly reading a docunt, solemnly interjected.
"Chen Yao had work matters to deal with; leaving early has nothing to do with Tian Tian."
Old Madam Mu’s expression changed, and seeing this Mu Haiyun quickly laughed, trying to smooth things over.
"That’s probably true, Kang Yun is often busy, let alone with the Bai Group."
Haiyang gave Mu Haiyun a cold look, said nothing, picked up the teacup, and started drinking tea.
anwhile, Mu Yi, who had just peeled an apple, handed the peeled apple to his younger daughter.
"Tian Tian, dinner will be a while. Have an apple to hold you over."
Tian Tian was a bit surprised; not just her, even Mu Qinghan raised an eyebrow slightly.
Mu Yi didn’t even glance at them, only looking lovingly at his youngest daughter with a voice full of tenderness.
"Tian Tian, take it and eat. When you finish it, Daddy will peel you another!"
Tian Tian: "..."
Indeed, she instantly beca the center of everyone’s attention.
