However, when they returned home, they were still punished and taken to the Bei family by their parents to apologize to Bei Yutang. Not only the Ling and Gu families, but also the Lei, Qin, and Zhang families all brought their daughters to apologize to Bei Yutang.
Bei Yutang couldn't help but look at Bei Yifeng. Bei Yifeng winked at her, and his meaning was very clear. That was to see her willingness, whether she forgave him or not, he would be there.
Bei Yutang looked at the heads of the families, then at the people around them who were lowering their heads, two of whom had bruises on their bodies.
"Miss Bei, it's all because of our poor parenting that you've suffered." The head of the Lei family said sincerely, "This is a small token of our appreciation to comfort you."
The Lei family presented a rosewood brocade box. Just looking at the workmanship and carved patterns of the rosewood, it was obvious that it was an antique. The box alone was worth hundreds of thousands, and the things placed inside were probably even more valuable.
Several others also presented their gifts. Bei Yutang's knowledge was far superior to that of the original owner. He could roughly estimate the value of what they brought just by looking at it.
Bei Yutang didn't make things difficult for them. They were afraid that the Bei family behind her was not her, Bei Yutang. She was new here, so it wasn't easy for her to make too many enemies.
Since that day, no one dared to openly embarrass Bei Yutang in school.
Three days later, when Bei Yifeng opened the book that recorded Bei Yutang's life for nineteen years, as he turned the first page, his heart followed the words recorded on it, and his heart became heavy little by little.
When he turned to the last page, his hands clenched into fists and his eyes turned slightly red.
She is the apple of the Bei family's eye and should have enjoyed the best of everything. However, she lives a precarious and displaced life.
Bei Yifeng couldn't help but think of what the doctor said, the diseases on the test results, her frail body when he first met her, her awkwardness, and so many other things...
It turns out that I had ignored so much. What was I doing at that time?
Bei Yifeng found that both he and his mother were concerned about Baoer, but ignored the person they should care about the most. She must have been helpless and sad at that time.
At this moment, Bei Yifeng fell into deep self-blame.
He was not a good brother, no wonder she was not close to him.
Late at night, Bei Yifeng returned home. When he reached the second floor, his steps involuntarily headed towards Bei Yutang's room.
When he came to his senses, he was already standing at her door.
When Bei Yifeng thought of the information he had seen during the day, a desire surged in his heart, a desire to see her.
"Crack!"
The door opened, Bei Yifeng walked into the room, walked carefully to her bedside, and looked at the person curled up in the corner of the bed, his brows tightly furrowed.
Seeing her sleeping like this, a picture suddenly popped up in his mind. It was of a person, completely filthy, whose gender was unclear. She was curled up in a pile of garbage on a cold snowy day.
She looked then, just like she looks now, so helpless.
Bei Yifeng's heart felt like it was being pricked by a needle, it hurt so much.
Looking at the silhouette that resembled his mother, he wanted to reach out, to touch her cheek, to smooth out her furrowed brow, but finally he withdrew his hand.
"I will protect you from now on and will never let anyone bully you again."
