Bai Yiyi observed Bai Ze's expression and continued, "It might be a coincidence. After all, a school like First Middle School can't just accept students as they please. Even if my father were to step in, it wouldn't be that easy."
Bai Yiyi stuck out her tongue playfully and consoled him, "Big brother, don't think too much about it. No matter who helped her, it's good that Ningning can go to First Middle School."
Upon hearing this, Bai Ze's brows furrowed even more.
Seeing his reaction, Bai Yiyi secretly curled her lips but didn't say anything.
Bai Ze was upset by Bai Ning's matter and was completely out of it when he talked to Bai Yiyi. After dinner, he drove Bai Yiyi directly home.
When they reached her house, Bai Yiyi asked, "Big Brother, why don't you come in and sit? My dad has always wanted to meet you and has told me to invite you a few times."
Bai Ze looked at her big villa and said with a complicated expression, "Let's forget about it today. It's getting late. It's not appropriate for me to visit at this time. We'll talk about it another day."
"Alright, I'll head in now. Be careful on your way back, Big Brother." Bai Yiyi was a little disappointed, but she still said goodbye to Bai Ze with a smile.
Just as Bai Ze was about to start the car, Bai Yiyi suddenly leaned over the window and said, "Big Brother, don't forget our promise tomorrow."
Bai Ze looked at her in confusion, not understanding what she meant.
"Aiya, Big Brother, you promised me that you would drive me to school on the first day of school. You can't have forgotten about it so quickly, right?" Bai Yiyi pouted and said, feeling wronged.
Bai Ze came to a sudden realization and quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, Yiyi, Big Brother didn't forget."
Hearing this, Bai Yiyi chuckled and said, "It's good that you haven't forgotten. Big Brother, hurry home then. See you tomorrow."
"Yes," Bai Ze replied softly. When Bai Yiyi turned around to leave, he suddenly thought of Bai Ning and called out to her, "Yiyi,"
"What's wrong, Big Brother?" Bai Yiyi immediately turned around and replied.
The girl's expression was gentle, her eyes were bright and sincere, and she looked gentle and obedient.
Looking at this girl, Bai Ze suddenly chuckled and said, "I just forgot to ask, what time will I be picking you up tomorrow?"
Hearing this, Bai Yiyi let out a long sigh and said half-jokingly, "You scared me. I thought Big Brother didn't want to send me off tomorrow."
Bai Ze's eyes flickered and he hurriedly denied, "How could that be?"
"That's good. See you at 7:30 tomorrow morning!" Bai Yiyi quickly ended the conversation.
"Alright," Bai Ze replied briefly.
After that, Bai Yiyi waved her hand and turned around to walk back to the villa.
Bai Ze waited until Bai Yiyi's figure was completely out of sight before he pulled away his gaze.
He didn't hesitate anymore. In any case, his biological sister didn't need him to send her. Why should he hurt his relationship with Yiyi because of her feelings? After all, he had been with Yiyi for more than ten years. Even though they weren't blood-related, Yiyi would always be his sister in his heart.
After thinking it through, he started the car and left Yiyi's villa.
…
Bai Yiyi saw Su Xueru on the sofa as soon as she entered the villa.
Su Xueru saw her return and asked casually, "Which friend of yours was inviting you out so late at night?"
Her expression was relaxed and her voice was gentle. It seemed like she was just asking this casually.
Bai Yiyi walked behind Su Xueru and sensibly reached out to massage her shoulders. "Big Brother was looking for me."
"Is that your adoptive mother's eldest son?" When Su Xueru heard this title, she felt very uncomfortable in her heart, but she still said as if she was teaching, "Didn't I tell you to stay away from their family? I know you're kind, but children from poor families have many thoughts. If you get too close to them, what will you do if they use you again in the future?"
Bai Yiyi lowered her eyes and didn't say a word, thinking,'that's because you don't have a good eye and don't know how capable they are.'
After a while, she said gently, "Don't worry, Mom. I know what I'm doing."
"But, mom," she continued after a pause, "there's something strange. Didn't you say that Bai Ning's grades were particularly bad? "
Su Xueru was enjoying her daughter's massage. She closed her eyes and said, "Yeah, what's wrong?"
"But big brother said that she's going to attend First Middle School starting tomorrow." Bai Yiyi probed.
Upon hearing this, Su Xueru's eyes shot open. She turned to look at Bai Yiyi and asked in disbelief, "What did you just say?"
