"Say! Who tricked you into skipping class? Did you know that your dad almost got into a car accident in order to find you? Why are you so unreassuring? ”

As soon as she was halfway down the stairs, Bai Lian was stopped by the voice of her adoptive mother downstairs, she stretched out her head to look, only to see her adoptive mother pointing at her younger brother Bai Jingxin and reprimanding her brother very angrily.

When she heard the car accident, she immediately ran down, and when she walked to the living room, she saw her adoptive father with a bandage on his forehead.

Bai Lian sat down and asked with concern, "Dad, are you okay?" What's wrong? ”

Bai Jinyun covered his head and looked at his daughter a little weakly, and said softly, "It's okay, when did you come back?" ”

"Morning."

"Hmm."

Bai Jinyun didn't pay attention to his daughter lightly, but raised his head and said to his wife who was still scolding his son: "Wife~, okay, my head is too big for you to quarrel, I'll tell him!" ”

When Lu Fengmiao saw her husband speak, she snorted and sat on the side, and didn't give Bai Lian half an eye.

Bai Lian pursed her mouth and sat down to comfort her: "Mom, don't be angry. ”

At this time, Lu Fengmiao glanced at her daughter, and she also hummed softly and stopped talking.

Bai Jingxin, who had been bowing his head and being silent, suddenly looked up at Bai Lian at this time, which made Bai Lian stunned.

"Xin'er, tell me, why did you skip class today?"

Bai Jingxin, who was only 12 years old, squinted her eyes slightly, her eyes were a little cold, and Bai Lian's whole body trembled, goosebumps rose, she frowned and looked back at her brother, with deep doubts in her eyes.

"Bai Jingxin! I'll talk to you! ”

Bai Jinyun's roar finally made Bai Jingxin look away, "Class is too boring!" ”

Forehead... Bai Lian felt that his excuse was very perfunctory.

Not to mention Bai Jinyun, he directly picked up a box of cigarettes in front of him and threw it over: "Are you playing Laozi?" ”

Bai Jingxin didn't dodge, he bowed his head very stubbornly and remained silent.

At this time, Lu Fengmiao was unwilling, and immediately got up to protect her son: "If you scold, scold, what do you do?" Xin'er get up, go wash your hands and eat! ”

"You're used to it!" Seeing that his daughter-in-law suddenly changed her attitude, Bai Jinyun also said something to her angrily.

Lu Fengmiao picked up her son and was about to leave, when she heard her husband say this, she suddenly stopped talking.

"Where am I used to him? He eats, drinks, and learns every day, which is not done under my supervision, if I am used to him, his grades can get the first place in the whole school, and the Chinese painting can get the third place in the province? Can chess win second in the country? Not to mention music, dance and other competitions, which ones I didn't work hard to supervise and teach him? You're still saying that about me... Woo woo..."Speaking of which, Lu Fengmiao suddenly cried aggrievedly.

Bai Jinyun instantly became impatient, rubbed his temples, got up and left and waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's all good for you to teach~!" ”

When Lu Fengmiao heard the disgusted tone in this sentence, she sat directly on the sofa and cried bitterly.

This turn of events made Bai Lian really a little unable to turn around, since she entered this house, this was the first time she had seen their husband and wife quarrel.

In the past, the two were very affectionate, even if a younger brother took up most of the adoptive mother's attention, the adoptive father never complained, and often secretly went out with the adoptive mother for a romantic dinner.

Bai Jingxin didn't mean to comfort his mother at all, and after getting up, he followed his father to the restaurant, and he had dinner directly.

Although Bai Lian couldn't look past it, she felt that she was not qualified to say anything about him, and their relationship was very weak, after all, the life trajectories of the two were completely different from the same track.

Bai Lian had no choice but to continue to comfort her mother: "Mom~! Dad was injured today, don't be angry. ”

Lu Fengmiao slowly raised her head and looked at the father and son who were eating over there, especially the bandage on her husband's head, which was very eye-catching, she thought to herself, did she really think too much?

She reached out to wipe away her tears, turned to Bai Lian and said, "I'm fine, Lian'er go eat!" ”

Bai Lian shook her head lightly, with a sincere expression: "I'll go with you!" ”

Lu Fengmiao thought for two seconds before agreeing: "Okay! ”

After dinner, Bai Lian saw that her younger brother went back to the room directly, and her mother also went back to the room, only her father sat on the sofa in the living room, continuing to hold his head and ponder something.

Bai Lian hesitated, and then walked over and sat beside her adoptive father,

"Dad?"

Bai Jinyun turned his head to look at his daughter: "Something?" ”

"Well, do you still have a headache?"

"It's okay, I can bear this pain."

"Oh~, Dad, can you tell me how you got hurt?" Bai Lian asked cautiously, she was afraid that she would be scolded by her father for meddling in her affairs.

Bai Jinyun frowned, looking a little displeased.

Bai Lian thought that her father was unhappy, and just as she wanted to get up and say goodbye, she heard her father speak.

"It's not your brother who made trouble, today I actually learned to skip class, and my mobile phone was turned off, in order to find him, I drove too quickly and didn't see the red light clearly, and was hit by the bus that came from the corner, although there was no major traffic accident, your father and I have to take full responsibility for taking out some money to give the people on the bus mental compensation."

This is really spending money to avoid disasters!

"Whew... It's okay if you're okay, Dad, don't be angry with your brother, he's so smart and still studying in class every day, it must be because he does the same thing too much to get bored. ”

"He is the only seedling of our Bai family, and the company will be his in the future, of course he needs to start from a young age, and he will learn a wide range of knowledge, which will be helpful to the future development of our company."

Bai Lian couldn't refute that her younger brother was indeed a single seedling, so her adopted daughter was dispensable.

"That's right, so Dad, don't be angry, my brother is so smart, maybe he can already do it in one less class."

Bai Jinyun nodded, he thought so too, what boy didn't skip class once or twice when he was a teenager? As long as his future learning and development will not be affected.

"Well, so be it, it's not early, rest early!"

Bai Jinyun was indeed angry, got up and said a word to Bai Lian and left.

Bai Lian didn't rush back to the room, but leaned on the sofa and looked at the ceiling, thinking about the abnormality in the family today, as if it was caused by her younger brother's sudden skipping class?

A handsome young man's face suddenly appeared above Bai Lian's line of sight,

"What kind of ecstasy soup did you pour Dad again?"

Bai Lian was instantly frightened and sat up and faced Bai Jingxin: "Brother? What did you just say? ”

What did she just hear? What does brother mean?

"Say what?" Bai Jingxin grinned, turned over from the back of the sofa and sat next to Bai Lian, "Tell me, how can I let my parents stop controlling me, and I can live freely like you." ”

"Well, I don't understand what you're saying." She doesn't understand, she can't spoil her parents' efforts, her younger brother is indeed the only heir to the company, and he really has a lot to learn.

"Don't understand? Playing dumb? A good idea indeed! The young man's eyes narrowed slightly.

Bai Lian was anxious: "No, brother, don't mess around, your parents are all for your good..."

"What a fart! I'm fed up with why they make decisions for me, I'm 12 years old, I don't have any friends, no classmates to play with, and I don't even have the impression that my parents give me that my teachers are pleasing to me. As for you, you have been like a ghost since you were a child, you don't have to learn anything, you don't have to participate in any competitions, and you haven't been admitted to Haida yet? Why can't I? Is it me dumber than you or do they love you more? ”

After Bai Jingxin lost his temper, he shook off a few things on the coffee table, got up and ran back upstairs.

Leaving Bai Lian stunned on the sofa, her thoughts in her head were in a mess.
