Butler:
Miss Lili, your family is waiting for you in the living room.
*Lili nodded, offering a small smile, and proceeded to the living room.*
Mr. Li (Father):
*Angry* Where have you been? Do you know how worried I was?
Li Lili:
*Timidly* I... I had some trouble at school, and I ended up sleeping there.
Mrs. Mo (Stepmother):
*Provocatively* Trouble at school? And you decide to spend the night there? How convenient.
Mo Lina (Stepsister):
*Chiming in with a smirk* Yeah, Dad. She was probably with those guys she's been hanging out with.
Mr. Li (Father):
*Growing angrier* Guys? What guys? Lili, explain yourself.
Li Lili:
*Defensive* It's nothing like that! Just some classmates . I got hurt and they helped me to go to the infirmary, and it took longer than expected.
Mrs. Mo (Stepmother):
*Skeptical, with a mocking tone* infirmary? Hurt? Sleeping at school? Do you think we're fools?
Mo Lina (Stepsister):
*Playing nice with a sly grin* Dad, don't get too upset. Maybe she learned her lesson. You know, boys and girls should be careful about these things.
Mr. Li (Father):
*Worried* You were hurt? You are even limping? Lili tell me what happened? Are you being bullied at school ?
**Li Lili:**
*Explaining* In the cafeteria, there was a commotion, and I accidentally got pushed. I twisted my leg, but it's nothing serious. Don't worry dad am not being bullied.
Mrs. Mo (Stepmother):
*Mocking* First, you spend the night at school, and now you're injured? Are you sure you're not making up stories just not to be punished right ?
Li Lili:
*Defending* No, it's true! I even got help from the four young masters.
Mr. Li (Father):
*Surprised* The four young masters? How do you know them?
Li Lili:
*Honest* I don't really know them. They just saw what happened and offered to help. They're students in my school.
Mrs. Mo (Stepmother):
*Disapproving* Students or not, this seems fishy. Why would they help you?
Li Lili:
*Trying to explain* I don't know. They just wanted to assist. They're well-known in the school .
Mo Lina (Stepsister):
*Rolling her eyes* Kind? Or are you trying to get close to them?
Mr. Li (Father):
*Concerned* Lili, be careful about the company you keep. We don't want any trouble. There's more to them than the eyes can see.
Li Lili:
*Innocent* I know, Dad. I didn't ask for their help; they just offered. I'm just grateful they were there when I needed help.
*The tension in the room continues to rise as suspicions linger. The tension was broken by Li tianyu*
Mr. Li tianyu (Father):
*Concerned* Lili, let one of the maids help you upstairs. Freshen up and rest. We'll call the doctor to check on you.
**Li Lili:**
*Softly* Okay, Dad.
*As the maid assists Lili, Mr. Li instructs the butler to contact the family doctor.*
Upstairs
After Lili has freshened up and came out of the bathroom.
Maid:
*Guiding Lili to the bed* Here, Miss Lili. Let me help you get into bed.
Li Lili:
*Grateful* Thank you.
*The maid ensures Lili is comfortably settled before leaving her to rest.*
