Now that the person they've been carefully protecting has been criticized, how could they not feel good about it? So they immediately spoke out in defense of Mu Lingxi.
"Heh, who do we have here? It's just you two sycophants. What, you're willing to put up with it yourselves, or are you going to force others to?"
Song Bao'er was naturally upset after being criticized, so she immediately retorted and entered full-scale battle mode.
She was a pampered young lady, always pampered and spoiled, and had never suffered any hardship.
Now that an unknown Han Jin and a freeloader from the Yi family are talking to her, Song Bao'er can't stand it anymore.
She was hardly a pretty girl right now; her eyes were practically spitting fire, and she was just short of pointing her finger at Mu Lingxi and yelling at her.
"Miss Song, if you have something to say, say it to me. I was the one who asked the production team to postpone the program. Why do you have to put all the blame on Xi'er?"
After Bo Changling spoke, Song Bao'er finally calmed down. She couldn't afford to offend him; how could she have forgotten that just now?
But she was still very unwilling. After all, apart from her face, Mu Lingxi was inferior to her in every other way. Why was she able to win the favor of so many people?
However, no matter how unwilling she was, Song Bao'er clearly realized that she could no longer be so arrogant.
She couldn't afford to offend Bo Changling, and now that he was putting pressure on her, she had no choice but to back down.
"I'm sorry, I got emotional just now. I'll go back to my room and rest for a bit."
To Mu Lingxi, Song Bao'er's outburst was completely inexplicable; she hadn't even said a word yet!
Besides, I was indeed late, and I did do something wrong, but no one called me.
Mu Lingxi could understand that Song Bao'er must have been quite annoyed, having waited for her for so long in the hot weather.
Why can't we just talk things out? Why do we have to point fingers and berate ourselves?
Mu Lingxi was unhappy. She tried to hold back, but she couldn't help it. She pouted, and tears were welling up in her eyes.
"I...I'm sorry..."
She apologized to everyone, but her sobbing voice couldn't lie, and Bo Changling immediately felt sorry for her.
The girl had no idea that her half-crying appearance and slightly reddened eyes were what made her so alluring.
"Why are you crying? It's not your fault. No one woke you up when you didn't get up. The production team delayed the show, so she can't blame you."
Bo Changling was sitting closest to Mu Lingxi, and could clearly see the moisture in the girl's eyes and the glint of water in them.
The girl's distinct eyelashes were wet with tears, and her eyes were red at the corners, making her look very pitiful.
"Sigh, don't cry."
Seeing that his comforting words had no effect, Bo Changling sighed and took the initiative to pull the girl into his arms.
Perhaps it was the man's comforting words that worked, or perhaps it was because his voice was so gentle, but Mu Lingxi didn't care; she just wanted to cry her heart out.
"Waaah... I'm so sad, she scolded me... I didn't mean to be late... I feel so wronged..."
The girl's voice came out in broken, sobbing voices, which broke everyone's heart.
Han Jin and Yi Changfeng, in particular, who had no chance to get close to Mu Lingxi, felt a pang of sadness.
Han Jin immediately stood up, walked around all the chairs, and went to Mu Lingxi's side.
Seeing her crying so sadly, he gently patted her back with his large, tender hand, comforting her as he did so.
"Alright, alright, Xi'er, we don't need to pay attention to what others say. Just do our own thing."
Bo Changling had already embraced the girl, but now he could only watch helplessly as another man walked towards him, and he couldn't avoid him.
Because he could clearly feel that a patch of his clothes on his chest was already soaked with the girl's tears, and he couldn't avoid it at all.
Now, Bo Changling could only hurl his glares at Han Jin with a "swish, swish, swish" sound, wishing he could kill him.
However, Bo Changling's glare was completely absorbed by the other party, who responded with a gentle smile.
Yi Changfeng took in their commotion, but instead of approaching, he went upstairs and dragged Song Bao'er down.
"Apologize!"
"What?"
When Song Bao'er's door was opened from the outside, she had no idea what kind of filling it contained!
She wondered if she was deaf. What was wrong with this person? Who did she need to apologize to?
Yi Changfeng didn't give her a chance to refute, dragging and pulling her down, and warning her.
"Apologize to Xi'er, or I'll tell my brother to stop all cooperation with your Song family. That project in the west of the city should be enough to bankrupt your family, right?"
Song Bao'er hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to shut up. Fine, fine, for the sake of these protectors, she'd just admit defeat, wouldn't she?
The matter was eventually resolved with Song Bao'er apologizing and Mu Lingxi forgiving her. Mu Lingxi was appeased, washed up and dressed again, and then the group went to the campsite.
