Bai Jing managed a brief smile . “Quite alright . ”

Xuxu glanced at Su Yue as she said, “Yueyue, I’m here to fetch you home . Your brother is coming back today . ”
“My brother is back?” Su Yue’s eyes were sparkling with excitement .
Wen Xuxu nodded . “Mm . ”
Su Yue suddenly frowned . “But I’m going to Bai Jing’s place to attend her sister’s birthday celebration . ”
She had agreed to go . If she broke her promise, it would disappoint Bai Jing .
“Why don’t you let Bai Jing bring the present back to her sister?” Xuxu turned to Bai Jing with an apologetic expression . “Bai Jing, I’m so sorry . Yueyue’s brother is back and he has been abroad for a long time . But he will fly off again in two days’ time . ”
A streak of disappointment flashed across Bai Jing’s eyes . Nevertheless, she still nodded lightly . “It’s… It’s alright . ”

Xuxu observed her expression and it further ascertained Yan Rusheng and her conjecture . It was the Lei family who had instructed Bai Jing to bring Su Yue to their place .
The only reason they would want to get close to Su Yue was to establish connections with Flourish & Prosper .
She knew that Bai Jing had no say over that matter .
Xuxu empathized with Bai Jing, and so she warmly smiled at her . “Bai Jing, come over with Yueyue to our place on a weekend . ”
Bai Jing nodded and agreed .
Seeing how quiet she was, Xuxu couldn’t bear to see her in such a state . She repeated once more . “Bai Jing, if you have any difficulties, you must let us know . Don’t suffer in silence . If there is anything we can help you, we will definitely do so . ”
“Thank you, Third sister-in-law . ” Bai Jing pressed her lips, but there weren’t any emotions in her tone .

Her phone rang inside her bag at that moment .
Her expression changed subtly as she rummaged for her phone . After glancing at the screen, she didn’t pick up the call right away . Instead, she bade goodbye to Xuxu first . “Third sister-in-law, I’m leaving now . ”
“Sure . ” Xuxu nodded .
After she left, Xuxu turned away from Bai Jing and sighed .
Su Yue noticed that Xuxu seemed troubled . Puzzled, she asked, “Third sister-in-law, what’s wrong?”
Xuxu shook her head and smiled . “Nothing much . Let’s go . ”
She held Su Yue’s hand and walked to the car . Su Yue entered the car first, followed by Xuxu .
The chauffeur had sent her today .
Su Yue had her head bowed throughout the journey, and Xuxu knew that she must have felt upset that she had broken her promise to Bai Jing .
But how could Xuxu tell her the exact reason?
Su Yue had treated Bai Jing as her true friend, and she really liked her .
And she believed that Bai Jing had treated Su Yue as her friend, too .
‘Sigh . ’ Unfortunately, that poor lass was caught in such a situation .
Xuxu began to regret that she didn’t stop Bai Jing from leaving with her mother .
If she had used Bai Jing’s father last words to stop her mother, it was likely that Bai Jing wouldn’t have agreed to leave with her mother .
At that point in time, she felt that Bai Jing’s mother had truly wanted Bai Jing to leave with her so that she could make amends . She assumed that Bai Jing’s mother would treat her well .
‘Perhaps… She really wanted to make amends, but her situation…’
Forget it . It was too late for regrets . Yan Rusheng and Xuxu wanted to observe for a while more, and if Bai Jing was really having a hard time, they would step in to intervene .
It was a good thing that she was staying in the school dormitory now .
It was afternoon and it was still early . Hence, Xuxu brought Su Yue to Flourish & Prosper .
The security guards rushed to welcome her . “Lady boss . ”
