Bai Yiyan hadn't eaten anything and had only drunk a few mouthfuls of water. If it weren't for the fact that her mother had brought a large bag of food and snacks to see her, she would have starved herself to death at home.
"What do you look like now? Hiding in a corner and living a life in a daze, is this still like my daughter? " When her mother came in, she saw that the room was dark. She quickly ran over and forcefully pulled the curtain to let in the bright light. Bai Yiyan quickly reached out her hand to cover her eyes, struggling to adjust to the light.
"Mom, why are you here? Don't you take care of your brother? " Bai Yiyan asked weakly.
"Why am I here? Of course I'm here to see you! " As her mother spoke, she opened some of the food she had packed. "Come over and eat something. Don't be so hungry that the sky won't collapse. If you don't eat something, you'll starve to death."
"Mom, did aunt call you? She's gone again. " Bai Yiyan got up from the bed and asked weakly.
"No, it's as if she disappeared from the world. Who knows where she went? Right, why is she hiding somewhere? Offended someone? Do you know? " Her mother asked curiously, because she didn't know anything about her sister either.
Of course, Bai Yiyan couldn't tell her mother the truth. Otherwise, she would be so worried that she wouldn't be able to eat anymore and wouldn't be able to sleep.
Her mother came over and pulled her out of the living room. She placed her on the table and handed her a pair of chopsticks. "Eat quickly. If you get cold, you won't be able to eat anymore."
"Thank you, Mom!" Bai Yiyan said in a low voice. She clenched her chopsticks tightly and continued to eat in silence.
Her mother ran over to help her tidy up the room, mumbling as she did so, "This sister of mine really doesn't make me feel at ease. She used to be, and now she is. I'm worried about what she'll do when she gets old."
"Mom, would you forgive your aunt if she made a big mistake?" Bai Yiyan had been suffering from the pressure in her heart for the past two days, and she was on the verge of going crazy. Making a choice between family and love was already an extremely cruel thing to her.
Her mother's movements became slower, as if she was thinking. Then, she taunted, "As long as she doesn't go to kill people, I can forgive her for any other mistakes."
Bai Yiyan's hand, which was holding onto the chopsticks, trembled slightly. She looked at her mother with astonishment. Would her mother really make such a choice?
They were sisters.
"Mom, what if, I mean, if Aunt really killed someone? If you knew where she was, would you have called the police to get her? " Bai Yiyan urgently needed her mother to point her out a path, so that she wouldn't be confused anymore.
Her mother frowned and then suddenly ran over. She stared at Xiao Yan and asked, "Xiao Yan, do you know what happened to your aunt? Tell me quickly, I'm really worried about her."
"I, I don't know. I was just making an analogy." Bai Yiyan's eyes flickered as she said this with a guilty conscience.
"You fool, this kind of thing is easy to joke about. If she really killed someone, then that would be the end of her life!" The white mother scolded with a smile.
Bai Yiyan looked desperate after hearing her mother's words. She then asked, "Mom, you still haven't told me the answer. Will you call the police?"
"Call the police? "Of course not, she's my sister, and even if she killed someone, I believe that she would have some kind of unforgivable loyalty. Your aunt knows that, other than being greedy for money, she has no other ailments, so if she killed someone by mistake or was used by someone else, it would be a different matter. Her mother's words were full of sincerity, but it was the answer that everyone thought of at the first moment.
He always felt that since he knew his family, he wouldn't kill them for no reason. Even if he did kill them, it wouldn't be intentional. There must be a reason for him to be forgiven.
Bai Yiyan secretly let out a sigh of relief when she heard her mother's words. The dark clouds that had weighed down her heart for the past few days had also dissipated. Perhaps her decision wasn't wrong, but it definitely wasn't right.
"Eat quickly!" Her mother hurriedly urged her on as she saw her in a daze.
"Mom, go back!" Bai Yiyan said softly.
"I don't trust you!" Her mother sat down on the sofa. Although she had been busy taking care of her youngest son, Bai Yiyan's condition now made her very worried.
In the past, she had always been optimistic, positive, and always had a smile and confidence on her face, so she didn't worry about her at all. She was very confident in letting her roam the world.
But at this moment, the smile on her face disappeared as if she was abandoned by the whole world. The shock and grievance that she had suffered, the White Mother also saw it. The words Ji Yueze said to the camera were really too hurtful.
Before, she loved him passionately, and was not afraid of the opinions of others. But now, she had abandoned him completely, without a shred of mercy. To a young girl, she hadn't experienced any hardships, but she was suddenly forced to part with him.
"I'll be fine!" Bai Yiyan said softly.
"If you don't move back home and let me see you, I'll be able to relax!"
However, Bai Yiyan quickly shook her head. "No, I'm not moving back!"
Hearing that, the white mother immediately said, "Do you still mind what your stepfather said last time? "Don't worry, if he really marries you, then I'll divorce him."
Bai Yiyan shuddered when she recalled the terms her stepfather had discussed with her earlier.
"Mom, forget it. Don't quarrel with him over me. In that family, if it weren't for me, you would still be able to live happily." Bai Yiyan knew that her mother wouldn't dare to divorce her stepfather. Since her brother was still young, she still needed that man to provide her living expenses. Thus, she wisely decided not to make things difficult for her mother.
Her mother sighed, "It's all my fault. I can't protect you."
"Mom, you've already done very well!" Bai Yiyan comforted her softly.
Her mother lowered her head, sulking. It wasn't that she was dissatisfied with her current life, but there were many things she could only think about, but could not do. For example, she could only bring Bai Yiyan home to live.
"Alright, Xiao Yan, I'll be leaving first. If there's anything else you need, I'll send it over to you!" Her mother knew that at the most, she wouldn't go out because many people wanted to see her make a joke of herself.
"Alright, I will!" After Bai Yiyan saw her mother off, she sat back down at the table. She picked up a pair of chopsticks and picked up her favorite dish, putting it into her mouth to savor the taste.
Bai Yiyan turned on the television. Sure enough, the whole world was hustling about her and Ji Yueze.
There seemed to be no news that was more attractive than this on entertainment industry.
