Mo Yesi’s expression turned cold as he looked at Bai Yusheng sharply.
Bai Yusheng shrugged with an innocent expression. “I didn’t invite her. I don’t have much of a relationship with her, so I never thought of inviting her. Her relationship with my mother has been quite good recently. If my mother wants her to come, I can’t possibly disallow it.”
“If you don’t talk, no one will think you’re mute.”
“I’m just giving you a heads up.” Bai Yusheng still had an innocent expression on his face. He turned to look at Qiao Mianmian and habitually reached out to pat her head. He ignored the murderous look in someone’s eyes and said with a smile, “Mianmian, remember that you’re the one in charge. So, no matter what other women do, you have to show your dominance. There are so many people protecting you tonight. No one can bully you, understand?”
Thinking of Shen Rou, a trace of gloominess flashed past Bai Yusheng’s eyes.
He didn’t agree to Shen Rou’s request.
That woman probably wouldn’t give up.
Bai Yusheng was worried that she would cause trouble tonight.
Qiao Mianmian quickly guessed who that old acquaintance was.
She was not surprised.
Because she had already guessed that Shen Rou would definitely come to such an occasion.
Bai Yusheng reminded her because he was afraid that she would feel wronged because of Shen Rou’s arrival.
Hence, he specially explained that Shen Rou was not invited by him.
No matter what he thought, this action warmed Qiao Mianmian’s heart.
“Don’t worry, Brother Bai. I know what to do. With your words, I’m not afraid of anything anymore.”
Bai Yusheng looked at the girl’s obedient expression and thought of the possibility that Madam Bai had mentioned. His gaze softened.
If she was really his sister.
This would definitely be the best birthday present ever.
A birthday present he would cherish forever.
He really liked Qiao Mianmian and hoped that she was his sister.
Even though he didn’t think it was very likely.
However, even if there was only one percent of hope, he still had to investigate thoroughly.
Mo Yesi had no idea how Bai Yusheng felt about Qiao Mianmian.
He also didn’t expect the Bai family to place their hopes on Qiao Mianmian.
He only saw that Bai Yusheng treated Qiao Mianmian differently from other girls.
This was different. In his eyes, it was a man’s love for a woman.
Seeing that Bai Yusheng’s hand was still on Qiao Mianmian’s head, Mo Yesi felt a chill down his spine. He wanted to chop off Bai Yusheng’s hand.
What made him even angrier was that Qiao Mianmian actually allowed Bai Yusheng to do so.
There was no hint of unwillingness in his actions. Furthermore, from the interaction between the two, it could be seen that this was definitely not the first time Bai Yusheng had done this.
Mo Yesi’s face darkened.
“Oh right, Mianmian, Mom heard that you’re coming today and wants to see you.” Bai Yusheng ignored a certain black-faced person and continued, “Shall I bring you to see her now?”
Qiao Mianmian opened her mouth and was about to speak when she heard a woman’s gentle voice from behind Bai Yusheng. “Isn’t this the Second Young Master of the Mo family? Eh, who’s this beautiful girl beside you? Is she your girlfriend?”
The man, whose face was dark and whose body was emitting cold air, saw the person walking over from behind Bai Yusheng. He immediately restrained his aura and politely called out, “Aunt Bai.”
