Bai Meiyue chased after Lei Qian for a good fifteen minutes before she decisively gave up on her chase. Not because she was tired, but because the man ran out of the building before she could get hold of him.
When Bai Meiyue saw Lei Qian running away in his car, a part of her wanted to chase after him, but her stomach was rumbling and she felt rather tetchy; she was worried that if she chased after him on an empty stomach, she might just kill the man when she got her hands on him.
"You better not come back!" She shouted after the car that was driving away, since he wanted to hide; let’s see how long he could hide. After she finished speaking, she turned around on her feet and then headed back upstairs.
When Bai Zhan noticed her going home, he heaved a sigh of relief. Just now, she thought that his sister was about to kill the father of her own child. It was a good thing that Lei Qian had his wits intact and ran away, or else blood would definitely have been spilt this morning.
"Enough," he said to his second brother when he saw that Bai Jixuan was still laughing. "Do you want to go into hiding just like Master Lei?"
Bai Jixuan laughed a few more times before shaking his head. He said to his brother, "I don’t. But you have to admit that Yueyue looks really funny and..." he paused before adding, "She is acting around her age after a long time."
Ever since the incident with Lei Qian happened, their sister had gotten more and more mature. While Bai Jixaun was happy to see his sister growing up, he sometimes also hoped that she would act her age. The way Bai Meiyue usually acted was as if she had seen horrors in her life that no one ever had.
It made his heart ache. He didn’t know how Bai Qingshi had tormented his sister, but he knew her well enough to know that she was not at peace. Something kept worrying her, and that wasn’t good.
Bai Zhan parted his lips, but he couldn’t say anything. Because his brother was right, as much as he admired Bai Meiyue, he hoped that she could sometimes take it easy and not push herself so hard.
This was all due to Lei Qian.
No wonder; the wise men often said that a good partner was rather important in one’s life.
Bai Meiyue had no idea what her brothers were thinking; if she had, then she would have locked them out of the house just like Lei Qian. Fortunately for them, Bai Meiyue couldn’t see what was going on in their heads, or else they were in for a lot of trouble.
Bai Meiyue returned home, and as she was in a bad mood, the first thing she did was to cook something nice for herself. Not something healthy, but something that would ease the anger in her heart.
