Her father not only favored sons over daughters, but was also extremely protective of his own. Now that outsiders have bullied his daughter, he will definitely step in and make them pay the price.
Bai Xinyu was certain that the men in her Bai family were always protective of their own. However, she overlooked one thing: Bai Ru'an, who was also protective of her own, was here.
Bai Zhengping gently pushed his youngest daughter away and walked towards Lin Xiaoxue with a dignified expression. His eyes were filled with scrutiny and a hint of dissatisfaction. No matter how bad Bai Xinyu was, she was still his biological daughter, and he would definitely stand by her side if something happened.
The Lin family's maid is truly audacious, daring to lay a hand on someone in the Bai family. It seems he has been far too lenient with them in the past.
"I'm afraid we won't be able to eat this meal. We need to go to the hospital to get our injuries checked." He had to teach the Lin family's girls a lesson. How could his daughter be injured by outsiders at home?
It's already dark, and the food in the kitchen is almost ready. Suddenly they say it's over and there's no food left. Isn't this a slap in Bai Ru'an's face?
Bai Ru'an himself was not afraid, but he didn't want Lin Xiazhu to be wronged. "Do you want to go with us, or wait for the results at home?" He looked steadily at Bai Zhengping.
This person is his own grandfather. In the more than seven years since he returned to the Bai family, they have never had a fight. The last time they had a disagreement was about him and Xiaozhu. Today, the old man let his two daughters cause trouble outside, which is actually a veiled statement that he does not agree to Xiaozhu being with him.
"Mingxuan, come to the study with me, I have something to say to you." Bai Zhengping didn't want to argue with his grandson in front of so many people. He hoped to resolve the matter peacefully, but Mingxuan's attitude was very firm, which put him in a difficult position.
“Just say what you have to say in front of everyone. Whether you agree or disagree, it’s just a matter of saying it. Why beat around the bush?” Bai Ruan paused, then chuckled. “But whether you agree or not, it won’t change my decision.”
Bai Zhengping was humiliated in public and felt extremely embarrassed. His expression grew increasingly stern. He had never lost his temper with this only grandson before, and he made up for all the debts he owed to his eldest son by giving him to this grandson. However, this brat was very cold-hearted and did not appreciate it much. He was not very warm towards his grandfather.
Aside from cooperating a bit with getting into Songbai Group, he's too opinionated about everything else, doing whatever he wants without considering other people's feelings.
He glanced at Lin Xiazhu, and it seemed that only this girl could influence Mingxuan's emotions. Being too dependent on a woman was not a good thing. To be honest, he really didn't think much of girls from the countryside; their family backgrounds were worlds apart.
Although he felt he couldn't change his grandson's decision, he was unwilling to give up and wanted to try again, but judging from the current situation, he had obviously messed it up.
The grandfather and granddaughter locked eyes for a full minute before Bai Zhengping finally sighed and said, "Fine, let the family doctor come and take a look at them."
Previously, because Old Master Bai was in poor health, the family doctor lived in the Bai family home and was on standby at any time. Now that Old Master Bai has passed away, the family doctor continues to stay in the Bai family home. Bai Zhengping's original words were, "It's not like we can't afford to support him, so he can stay in the Bai family home and be at his beck and call."
Lin Xiaoxue and Bai Xinyu were only pulling each other's hair and tearing at each other. No matter how hard they fought, it was only superficial injuries. However, if Zhong Ting had hit Lin Xiaoxue with a stool, she would definitely have been bleeding from a head wound.
After examining the two, the doctor said it was just a superficial injury and there was nothing seriously wrong.
"This woman just hit me with a stool. My foot bones were almost broken. How can I be okay? It hurts so much right now." Lin Xiaoxue lifted her foot up so everyone could see that her entire foot was swollen like a bun.
Everyone has eyes and can see that a stool in the living room has fallen onto a low table. It's just that the Bai family's furniture is of such high quality; the stools and tables are all made of top-grade pear wood, so they won't break even if you smash them a few more times.
The stool fell to the ground earlier, but the partition in the study was so well-designed that Bai Zhengping and the others didn't hear it. Later, when Lin Xiaoxue shouted, the maid happened to bring in tea and opened the door, which is when they heard it.
However, Lin Xiaoxue thought they were doing it on purpose, pretending not to hear, and that they were ganging up to bully them. She was already worried that the Bai family would not accept her eldest sister because of her family background, and now it was even worse. They were not even letting her go and wanted to take care of her too.
Then let's just throw caution to the wind and offend them both at once, since we've already offended them both.
"Don't think you can take lives just because you have money. We're not so easy to bully. You have to give us an explanation today, or I'll never forgive you." Lin Xiaoxue was a master of throwing a tantrum.
"This girl is pretty and a fierce fighter, but she's a bit too feisty," Song Yuheng whispered to Bai Junbai, stroking his chin.
"Stay away from me." Bai Junbai frowned in disgust. This guy was like a woman, always coming over and muttering. It was so annoying.
Bai Zhengping glanced at Lin Xiaoxue, his aged face revealing no emotion. He lowered his eyelids and said in a deep voice, "What happened today is not your fault alone. The Lin family has been kind to Mingxuan, and I am very grateful for your care for him. What happened today is my daughter's fault. If you want any compensation, just say so."
"I..." Lin Xiaoxue originally wanted to quote a price directly, but she stopped herself as soon as she said it. She turned to look at Lin Xiazhu, "Big sister, what should we do about this?"
Telling her older sister means that Bai Ru'an will step in and stand up for her; she wouldn't be so foolish as to directly confront Bai Zhengping.
“Although we are not a wealthy family, we are not short of medical expenses. We came here to have a happy meal today, but I didn’t expect to spoil everyone’s mood. The kindness between Xiao An and me has nothing to do with anyone else. No one owes me anything.” Lin Xiazhu said calmly.
"Forget about compensation. Taking too much might make you uncomfortable, and taking too little wouldn't satisfy us either. For Xiao An's sake, I'll just cover it myself. Looks like we can't eat today; I'm afraid I'll get indigestion."
Mr. Bai, you don't owe me anything. I made a deal with Uncle Bai, and the Lin family's favor towards Xiao An is long gone. You look down on me, and I have nothing to say about that—I'm poor, after all. But how things will develop between Xiao An and me is hard to say.
You either keep an eye on him, or if he comes to me, I won't refuse him, because I like him.
After saying that, Lin Xiazhu picked up Lin Xiaoxue and started to leave.
"Big sister, are we just going to leave like this?" Lin Xiaoxue was unwilling.
"If you don't want to leave, then stay here." Lin Xiazhu was about to get up and throw her away, but Lin Xiaoxue quickly hugged her neck tightly. Her older sister had already left, how could she dare to stay here alone? The two daughters of the Bai family could skin her alive.
Lin Taozi hadn't said a word until she heard her older sister's words. Her eyes welled up with tears, and she cried out, "You're bullying me! I hate you! I'll never come here again!"
Finally, she glared at all the members of the Bai family, not even sparing Bai Junbai who was standing at the bottom of the stairs.
Bai Junbai: "..." How naive! Does she think she can win by glaring at people? And she's going to glare at everyone one by one? Does she think she can just fly to the moon?
"This little girl has such bright, intelligent eyes, and she's quite pretty, but she seems a bit silly." Song Yuheng always had the time and inclination to study beautiful women; he was a true womanizer.
