  Without hesitating, Su Yue asked her directly, “Bai Jing, did your stepfamily force you into it again?”


  She felt that best friends didn’t need to—and shouldn’t—beat around the bush.

  She wanted to have a good talk with Bai Jing regarding this matter. Xuxu had instructed her to pay more attention to Bai Jing, and she had always thought that Bai Jing was doing well. But alas, that was only what she saw on the surface.

  Su Yue began to feel guilty as she thought about it. Her third sister-in-law would have realized much earlier than her that Bai Jing was being mistreated by her stepfamily.

  She was too stupid.

  Bai Jing’s expression changed. She looked at her and asked, “Su Yue, why did you ask this?”


  Su Yue replied, “I met the annoying Professor Zhao on my way here. He said that he saw you with a few men at the entrance of the bar last night. You were drunk.”


  Bai Jing glared at Su Yue, her eyes blazing with coldness.

  Su Yue was slightly frightened. She lightly pulled at Bai Jing’s sleeve and mumbled, “Don’t worry, I already told my third sister-in-law. My third brother and third sister-in-law will help you for sure.”


  When Bai Jing heard that she had also told Yan Rusheng, her gaze grew even colder. She lifted her arm and pushed Su Yue away with force. “I didn’t ask you to poke your nose into my affairs!”


  She was furious and it startled Su Yue. Her arm hung in midair and her eyes were wide in shock, her mouth hanging open slightly.

  She stared at Bai Jing in a daze.

  This was the first time Bai Jing raised her voice at her. When Bai Jing had glared at her, her eyes seemed filled with…… hatred.

  Su Yue was a little heartbroken. Did Bai Jing hate her?

  But why? They were best friends.

  When she saw that Su Yue was struck into a daze, Bai Jing realized that she had gone overboard. She pulled at her hair and said, “Su Yue, I’m sorry. I’m not in a good mood right now. My anger wasn’t…… it wasn’t directed at you.”


  There was a pitiful expression on her face.

  Her explanation made Su Yue’s heart ache. Immediately, she relaxed. So her hatred wasn’t directed at her.

  Su Yue smiled. “It’s all right. I understand.”


  She must hate her stepfamily to the core. If it were her instead, she would have killed the darned Lei Yong long ago.

  “Thank you, Su Yue.” Bai Jing grabbed her hand and pressed her lips into a line. “I’m fine, don’t worry about me. I promised them that last night would be the last time. It was just drinking, nothing else.”


  Then she bowed her head in what Su Yue perceived was shame.

  Of course, she would feel embarrassed about drinking with old men and having her scandal leaked.

  Su Yue patted Bai Jing’s shoulder gently. She comforted her. “Don’t worry. I’ve already told the annoying Professor Zhao to keep this a secret. I think he wouldn’t leak it…… on account of my third sister-in-law.”


  Although, she didn’t want to associate Zhao Zheng with Xuxu.

  Bai Jing nodded. She then looked at Su Yue gratefully and said, “Su Yue, thank you so much. I’m glad that you’re my best friend.”


  She then hugged her tightly, her chin on Su Yue’s shoulder. A cold gleam flashed across her eyes.

  It comforted Su Yue. “I hope you won’t change.”
