Xuan Mingyu hasn't touched her since their wedding night, so where did this chubby boy come from?
Besides, there's nothing better for Bai Xiaoruo.
She's still a student. If she were really pregnant and had a big belly, how would she go to school?
Sigh, what I'm most worried about now is how to explain to my father and stepmother that I'm going home alone. I hope they won't find another reason to ridicule me.
***
Song Meiyan and Bai Minglei were already waiting at the door.
Today is the first day of Bai Xiaoruo and Xuan Mingyu's homecoming. Because Bai Xiaoruo doesn't have a phone, she can't contact her and doesn't know when they will arrive.
However, they weren't hoping for Bai Xiaoruo's return; they were actually hoping for their son-in-law.
Bai Xiaoruo was a good-for-nothing with no hope of success, but the man she married was different. He was the eldest grandson of the Xian family and the president of the Qingxian Group. If she could get along well with him, wouldn't the Bai family get a bigger share of the profits when the Xian family made money in the future?
After waiting a while longer, it finally arrived.
Song Meiyan and Bai Minglei excitedly stepped forward to greet the car that had just come to a stop.
Bai Xiaoruo opened the car door and got out, and was instantly flattered to see that her father and stepmother had come out to greet her personally.
Upon seeing Bai Xiaoruo, Song Meiyan and Bai Minglei gave her a cold look and peered into the car to see when their precious son-in-law would come down.
After looking around for a while, there wasn't a single person in the car except for the driver, Bai Xiaoruo, and a bunch of gifts in the back seat.
What's going on? Today is the day for the bride to return to her parents' home. Did Bai Xiaoruo come back by herself?
"Where is he? Where is my son-in-law?" Song Meiyan was extremely anxious.
"Auntie... today is the day for my wife's return visit to her parents' home, I brought..."
"Stop talking nonsense. I'm asking you, where's Xuanming Yuren? Where's your husband? Why did you come back alone?"
Bai Xiaoruo answered cautiously, "He's busy with work, so he can't come. I brought a lot of gifts for you and Dad..."
"Who cares about your gift! If he's not coming, why did you come back!" Song Meiyan turned around angrily and went into the house.
Bai Minglei immediately turned hostile, and before leaving, he said to Bai Xiaoruo, "I've raised you for so many years, and you're still a useless piece of trash!"
Bai Xiaoruo stood silently in place, not daring to utter a sound.
Yes, I'm just useless. I can't do anything right. Even on a day like returning to my parents' home, I thought my family would really be looking forward to my return. But it turns out I was just being delusional.
If only Mom were still here. If it were Mom, she would love me so much, constantly asking how I am, and taking my hand to quickly lead me inside...
The thought of her mother made Bai Xiaoruo feel extremely sad. Those beautiful memories could only be cherished in her mind. Her mother had been gone for so many years, what good would it do to think about her again?
Song Meiyan had the gifts Bai Xiaoruo brought put directly into the storage room, not even bothering to look at them. Bai Xiaoruo just sat there on the sofa for the whole day, and apart from the water and snacks brought by Aunt Zhang, no one paid any attention to her.
During dinner, Bai Xiaoru kept her head down and silently picked at the rice in her bowl. She hadn't eaten all day and was starving.
Seeing Bai Xiaoruo dressed in designer brands and eating with great relish, Song Meiyan felt even more disgusted. Now that Bai Xiaoruo was the young mistress of the Xian family, and thinking about her own precious daughter suffering in prison, she lost her appetite even more.
"Eating so fast, are you in a hurry to be reincarnated?" Song Meiyan snapped at Bai Xiaoruo in annoyance.
Bai Xiaoruo paused for a moment while holding the chopsticks, but still slowed down her eating pace.
Just then, the butler suddenly came in to report—
"Master, Madam, Xuan...the young master is here."
What? Who?
Bai Xiaoruo panicked completely.
She hadn't told Xian Mingyu about the homecoming, so why was he coming?
But if it weren't for him, who else would the Bai family have as a son-in-law?
"Quickly, please come in!" Bai Minglei and Song Meiyan's eyes lit up instantly, and they stood up happily, eager to welcome Xian Mingyu in immediately.
