Qin Tian, as expected of a child raised in a military compound, has indeed received excellent upbringing.
In that instant, he suddenly came to his senses and realized how foolish his previous actions had been.
Not only did he fail to see Wei Tiantian's true colors, but he also acted like a fool, readily becoming the sharp blade that charged into battle.
Thinking of this, Qin Tian felt a wave of shame. He slowly lowered his head and said in an almost inaudible voice, "I'm sorry..."
Shen Xiaoxiao didn't care about his apology, and didn't even raise her head. She just replied indifferently, "No need to apologize, you can leave! We're not related anyway."
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian's lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't.
He silently lowered his head, turned and slowly walked away, his back view appearing somewhat lonely.
As Shen Xiaoxiao watched Qin Tian's figure recede into the distance, a helpless sigh welled up in her heart. She thought to herself, "Sigh! This person is almost completely fooled; how could he be so easily deceived?"
"Xiaoxiao, study hard, I'll be going now." Xiahou Jie said goodbye and quickly caught up with Qin Tian ahead.
"Hey kid, you haven't actually fallen for that woman, have you?" Xiahou Jie looked at him suspiciously. "She's a heartless woman. Do you know why I stay far away from her?"
Xiahou Jie noticed that he didn't respond to his question, but instead looked at him intently, as if listening carefully.
So she continued, "Once, I happened to see her abusing a dog; it was a scene that was unbearable to watch."
"I was about to step forward to stop her when another girl suddenly ran over and beat me to it."
"The two little girls started arguing, and just as they were arguing, the dog owner happened to show up."
"Guess what? Wei Tiantian actually burst into tears without saying a word, just like before. And she cried so hard, her face streaked with tears, as if she had suffered a great injustice."
"She was crying and telling the dog owner that she was actually trying to stop the girl from abusing the dog."
"That girl was still young and didn't know how to defend herself. She could only stand there dumbly and watch Wei Tiantian perform. Fortunately, the dog owner was reasonable enough not to pursue the matter further. He simply gave her a lecture, and that was the end of it."
Qin Tian's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief. He said in a shocked voice, "Such a thing happened? Why didn't you warn me sooner?"
Xiahou Jie rolled his eyes helplessly, seemingly unsurprised by Qin Tian's reaction. He said irritably, "You're so deeply infatuated with her, do you think you can listen to anything I say?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian was filled with remorse. He pounded his head hard and blamed himself, saying, "I was bewitched. Seeing her delicate appearance, I mistakenly thought she was truly kind and innocent."
Seeing this, Xiahou Jie quickly comforted him, saying, "Alright, alright, don't blame yourself. It's not too late to know the truth now. Just be more careful in the future."
Qin Tian nodded, looking dejected, and replied listlessly, "I understand."
At the same time, Shen Xiaoxiao noticed that Dai Xingyun was silent, and she asked with concern, "What's wrong? You seem to have something on your mind."
Dai Xingyun's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, and he replied, "It's nothing. My grandfather and the others asked me to invite you back for dinner today."
Upon hearing this, Shen Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up immediately, and she happily said, "I miss Grandpa Dai and the others too. We've finished all our lessons for today, so let's set off now."
After saying that, Shen Xiaoxiao took Dai Xingyun's hand and walked impatiently towards the door.
The journey from here to the military compound is not far, taking only about half an hour.
The two rode their bicycles, chatting and laughing all the way, thoroughly enjoying themselves. Time passed by unnoticed, and soon they arrived at their destination.
"What's going on? Why is the courtyard so lively today?" Shen Xiaoxiao blinked her curious big eyes, looking around to see where the noise was coming from.
The further they walked, the louder the noise grew. Unable to contain her curiosity, Shen Xiaoxiao quickened her pace unconsciously. Dai Xingyun shook his head helplessly at her eager appearance, thinking to himself: This girl must be eager to see the excitement again.
"Wow, there's a huge crowd there! Let's go see what's going on!" Shen Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up with excitement. She held Dai Xingyun's hand tightly, as if afraid he would run away, and hurriedly squeezed into the crowd.
After finally squeezing into the center of the crowd, Shen Xiaoxiao took a closer look and saw Wei Tiantian crying her eyes out, looking incredibly pitiful.
She pointed at a woman, crying and shouting, "She's the one who bullied me!"
The woman she was pointing at was Wei Mi'er. At this moment, Wei Mi'er's eyes were red and tears were welling up in her eyes, but she bit her lip tightly and didn't say a word.
Shen Xiaoxiao carefully examined Wei Mier and suddenly felt that the girl looked familiar. She turned to Dai Xingyun and whispered, "Why do I feel that this girl looks a bit like that Wei Tiantian?"
Dai Xingyun smiled slightly and explained softly, "This is her half-sister."
Shen Xiaoxiao's eyes widened instantly, revealing an expression of disbelief. "Then her mother is a mistress!"
Dai Xingyun thought about it and felt that although the statement was a bit straightforward, it was indeed true, so he nodded, "You could say that."
Shen Xiaoxiao suddenly realized, "No wonder, I was wondering why she was like that."
Dai Xingyun looked at her with some confusion, "What do you mean by this?"
Shen Xiaoxiao quickly explained, "I mean, no wonder she knew you had a boyfriend, yet she still wanted to steal him away."
Dai Xingyun's expression didn't change when he heard this. "Don't talk nonsense. She can't take me away no matter what."
Wei Tiantian had a bad day at school and was already in a bad mood. When she got back to the compound and saw Wei Mier wearing a necklace that looked very expensive, her anger flared up even more.
Whenever Wei Tiantian sets her sights on something belonging to Wei Mier, as long as no one is around, Wei Tiantian will definitely snatch it away without hesitation.
However, today's situation was completely unexpected for Wei Tiantian. Not only did Wei Mi'er not obediently give her the things as usual, but she even started a fight with her!
This sudden turn of events caught Wei Tiantian off guard.
