"Brother, why are you accusing me? Mom, you know I'm not that kind of person."
Bai Qingqing never thought that Bai Jingming would actually expose these things to the public.
That’s not all. In fact, what worries her the most is that she has no idea how much he knows about the past. What if he is just using the photos to deceive her? Then she will really lose more than she gains.
For this reason, she could only pretend to be innocent and turn her attention to her mother, Bai, who doted on her the most.
Bai's mother had too little experience and was too well protected. She was a little timid and didn't dare to speak just now, and she couldn't withstand her daughter's pleading at all.
Bai Qingqing just pretended to be innocent for a moment, and then she softened her heart again.
"Don't worry, Qingqing, mom believes in you."
Mother Bai had a loving face, and her warm hands soothed her poor and helpless daughter with red eyes.
"Jingming, as a brother, why do you always target your sister? You were jealous when you were young, but after so many years, you are still like this. Don't forget, if it weren't for Qingqing's parents, your dad would..."
"So what?"
Bai Jingming interrupted his mother's earnest advice indifferently.
"Not to mention the strangeness of the fire incident, just as for the repayment, I think it is enough."
Bai Jingming's expression faded and became deep and dark.
It's hard to understand his emotions at first.
"If she were truly a peaceful person, how could I not love her? But she just isn't. Of course, if you want to be blind and pamper her, that's your business, but don't try to morally blackmail me into being blind too."
"How can you say that!"
Bai's mother was so excited that she almost couldn't breathe.
This is her beloved son, why is she blaming them like an outsider?
As parents, they thought they had given Bai Jingming everything.
If Bai Jingming knew what they were thinking, he would definitely burst into laughter. They were just saving face, not pretending to be so affectionate.
"Bai Qingqing, now that I've found you and have no qualms about exposing all of this to everyone, it proves that I have far more than this. I came here today to tell you that if you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself. There is karma, and there will be retribution."
Bai Jingming had a smile on his face, and his elegant voice was without any warmth.
She understood that this was him declaring war on herself.
It seems that there is no need to maintain superficial efforts anymore, as her brother has completely turned against her.
Father Bai didn't say anything until Bai Jingming left?
His eyes were fixed on the ugly photos on the table?
But Bai's mother knew that he was angry, and very angry.
She believed that a harmonious family brings prosperity, and pulled Bai Qingqing to sit next to Bai's father.
"Qingqing, your father and I both know that this has nothing to do with you. Hurry up and apologize to your father, and we'll let it go."
Bai's mother smiled and tried to smooth things over.
Bai Qingqing nodded obediently and timidly approached Bai's father, with her pair of white and tender little hands intimately holding Bai's father's arm.
"Dad, I know I was wrong. I didn't know people well enough."
Father Bai's eyes became sharper, and he calmly shook off Bai Qingqing's hand.
"Don't think that just because you can coax your mother, you can trick me into it. I know your family has done me a favor, but that doesn't mean you can manipulate our entire Bai family at will."
Father Bai had never taught Bai Qingqing such a harsh lesson before.
Bai Qingqing had already hated him deeply in her heart, but she still pretended to be sensible on the surface.
"I know, Dad."
Father Bai snorted coldly, stood up and went upstairs.
Seeing that his wife still wanted to stay downstairs to comfort this thoughtful adopted daughter, he faced up to their relationship for the first time.
There was a time when his wife was so deeply bewitched that he could dispel all her doubts with just one sentence.
Then he thought of what his son said?
Even if their father-son relationship is cold, he is still his biological son. This relationship will always be more real and reliable than the superficial relationship of an adopted daughter?
Thinking of this, Father Bai's eyes turned cold.
"What are you still doing down there?"
Is this sentence directed at Bai's mother?
Mr. Bai has always had a high status in the family, and Mrs. Bai is used to relying on her husband for support.
Even though she felt humiliated in front of her daughter after being yelled at by her husband, she still pretended nothing happened and comforted Bai Qingqing with a few simple words before following her upstairs?
In Mr. Bai's bedroom upstairs.
The atmosphere was particularly depressing.
Bai's mother kept her mouth shut,
I was afraid that I would say something wrong and make my husband angry again.
"You've lived among the rich and powerful for so long, yet you don't have any brains at all?"
The more Mr. Bai looked at Mrs. Bai's aggrieved expression, the angrier he became.
Logically speaking, a lady living in such a big family should not be such a stupid person, but today, he really felt what stupidity was.
Bai's mother, who had already lowered her attitude, was scolded by her husband for no reason and suddenly couldn't control her tears.
"You got mad at your son, why are you taking it out on me?"
Bai's mother looked pitiful, with a lot of grievances in her heart but nowhere to vent them.
At this point, Father Bai saw that his wife still had no remorse. He was really disappointed with her.
"I'm talking about you. Don't bring up your son. I think you've long forgotten who your biological child is. You can't even tell who's close to you and who's distant from you."
"How can I not tell the difference? Of course I know Jingming is our biological son, but Qingqing has been by my side for so many years, and I have feelings for her too. Besides, it was you who brought her home and asked me to take good care of her. Why are you saying it's my fault now?"
Bai's mother felt really wronged. Not only did her son not understand her efforts, but even her husband, who she had been with for decades, did not understand her. She really gave her sincerity to an ungrateful person.
But she didn't dare say such words.
"I did ask you to take good care of her, but I also didn't ask you to focus all your attention on her. When that incident happened, if I hadn't brought her back, what would people say about me? How would they stab me in the back? As the wife of the Bai Group CEO, didn't you have any thoughts about her at all?"
Father Bai basically made his words as clear as they could be?
This was the first time in all these years that Father Bai had said something like this to her openly.
Bai's mother stopped crying immediately, her eyes filled with confusion.
"What do you think you rely on to keep the Bai family prosperous? Can you use your brain? When we're gone, the Bai family will have to rely on our son to support it, but you're still pushing your son further and further away for the sake of your adopted daughter. Is there something wrong with your brain?"
Mr. Bai was really ruthless and directly exposed Mrs. Bai's clumsy behavior.
At this moment, Bai's mother suddenly realized,
What did I just say to my own son? How could I not trust my own son?
