Bi Yuhan's face further grew dark when he heard how the girl addressed Mo Ling.
"I'm going to get some rest."
'I need some rest mentally.. not physically. If this continues I'll definitely go mad.'
After saying that Mo Ling proceeded to go upstairs.
Bi Ruixi got flustered when she heard that. She's scared to be in the same room as this brother of her's.
"Brother Mo, I'll definitely be in top 10 in the next monthly exam. You.." she straightened her back and declared loudly.
But in the middle of the declaration she felt danger from behind and instantly changed her words. "I'll get going now. Take care."
After saying that she escaped from the hell.
Mo Ling's footsteps paused for a second before resuming.
She felt complicated inside. She didn't have any hard feelings towards Bi Ruixi. But her mother..
She can't get entangled with the girl further.
Bi Yuhan saw the boy walk away and went to his room to freshen up.
~~~
When Bi Ruixi returned to the old residence she saw her mother sitting on the couch in her room.
"Where did you go?" He Jiangyu asked after seeing her daughter walk in.
"To Brother's place." She knew that her bodyguards would report her each and every movement to her mother.
So she replied honestly.
"Why?"
"To thank Brother Mo for saving me."
"Brother Mo? Mo Ling.. I told you to keep a distance from him."
"But he's not that bad of a person." Moreover she wants a brother like him.
"Ruixi.. I'm very disappointed in you." He Jiangyu expected better from her daughter.
"But.." she felt wronged and tried to explain. It's not wrong to thank the person who saved you, right?
"I'm doing what's good for you. We don't know where that boy came from. However it's good to be wary rather than regret in the future."
"So from now on.. keep your distance from them." He Jiangyu emphasized keeping distance from both Mo Ling and Bi Yuhan. Not just Mo Ling.
If it was before Bi Ruixi would have listened to her mother and taken whatever she said to be true.
But now..
She looked into her mother's eyes and said with determination.
"Mom, one is my brother who stood up for me when I got bullied. And Mo Ling is the one who saved me when I almost got molested."
"Now, I treat them as my family."
He Jiangyu didn't expect her obedient daughter to talk back at her. That too defending the son of that bitch and a bastard popped up from nowhere.
So her expression turned ugly instantly and she got up to slap her daughter.
'slap..'
The sound of the slap broke Bi Ruixi's heart. What didn't she do to make her mother happy?
Now she felt bitter inside when she thought back to the absurd things she did all these years.
She looked at her mother in disappointment and ran out of the house.
