C19

Yesterday, I did not want to be absent. I thought that if I could escape successfully, I would not return to that school. However, it seems that I will still have to stay here for a period of time.

When he picked up the phone, the homeroom teacher immediately criticized Lin Xiaoxiao, "Lin Xiaoxiao, you're getting bolder and bolder now. How dare you skip school for no reason! This is the critical period of your senior year, is this your attitude towards learning? Zhou brought his parents to see me! Otherwise, you don't need to come to class! "

Perhaps one of the reasons why I wanted to escape was because of this teacher. I never cared about my students and only knew how to punish them, but since I still wanted to stay in school, I had to listen to him first.

"Alright, Elder Jia …" Teacher Jia hung up without waiting for me to finish.

Since the death of my parents, everything has changed. Inviting my parents has always been my greatest fear, and I know that my classmates are whispering about me behind my back, saying that my sister is a prostitute, that I am also a lowly bastard who is spending money sold by his own sister.

I tried to struggle and argue with those people, but gradually I found out that everything I did was in vain, and would only make more people see me as a joke. Thus, I began to learn to ignore their words and live quietly in my own world.

Right now, my only parent is my sister, but I don't want her to go to school. It's not because I'm afraid of losing face, but because I'm afraid that my sister will feel bad after hearing my classmates' discussions. I've never told my sister about the grievances I suffered in school, so she never knew about it.

Closing my cell phone, I walked out of my bedroom and went downstairs to see my sister preparing to leave.

"Sis!" I mustered the courage to stop her.

Her hand rested on the doorknob, and she turned her head to look at me. Her gaze was so sharp that I didn't dare look straight at her, and all of a sudden, I couldn't say anything about her going to the head teacher.

"If there's nothing else, I'll be going." My sister said after seeing me for a long time without saying a single word.

"Wait! Elder sister … Let's eat before we leave. " In a moment of desperation, I said this and realized that it had been a long time since I had eaten at the same table as my sister.

When I thought about how close my sister and I were before, how we were always together, how everyone said we were as inseparable as twins, but now we were like this, and it was so hard even to eat with each other.

Elder sister withdrew her hand from my hand and a glimmer of hope rose in my heart. However, her words were like a bucket of cold water that was poured onto my head.

"Lin Xiaoxiao, please take your place. I worked hard to earn money for you to read. I didn't want you to spend all your time seducing men. What I'm raising isn't an ungrateful person."

My sister's words were like a thunderbolt striking down my throat. It seems that she definitely knows about my brother-in-law and me. My first thought was to explain, but found that I was unable to do so.

"Sis, I'm sorry." After a long time, I could only say this kind of apology.

"Sorry? "Lin Xiaoxiao, do you know that I did this for you …" Before he could finish, the door suddenly opened, interrupting his sister's words.

Her sister turned around, but when she saw who it was, her expression changed. All the angles on her body disappeared in an instant. If she was an angry lion just now, then she was now a docile little sheep in front of Soong Moran.

"You're back." His sister's tone was no longer overbearing.

The door blocked Soong Moran's view, so I couldn't see his face. After two minutes, he slowly walked in with a frosty expression on his face.

"Come and eat." Soong Moran said indifferently, he didn't even look at me the whole time.

His sister obediently followed behind Soong Moran and walked to the dining table. The nanny's cooking had already been arranged on the table, making it look very tempting.

Just when I thought Soong Moran really didn't notice me, he said, "Lin Xiaoxiao, what are you waiting for?" Soong Moran's gaze accurately shifted towards me.

"Huh?" I was stunned.

Soong Moran pulled out a chair and sat down leisurely, like a king sitting on his throne. The sister carefully pulled the chair to the left of Soong Moran and sat down as well.

"You're not eating?" Soong Moran looked up at me and said.

I came back to my senses and hastily ran downstairs. I pulled out the chair beside my sister and was about to sit down when Soong Moran looked at the seat on his right. He signaled me: "You can sit here from now on."

I looked at my sister. Her eyes were a little dull. She stared at the dishes on the table, as if she was a transparent person. She didn't care what Soong Moran said or how I did it.

Soong Moran's sharp eyes made me not dare to disobey his orders so I could only stand up and walk to his right side of the seat and obediently sit down. He seemed to be very satisfied with it, and I don't know if I was mistaken, but I saw the corner of his mouth curled up slightly.

Soong Moran intentionally or not, so almost all the good stuff is in my bowl. I wanted to reject her, but there was nothing I could do. I kept observing my sister's reaction, but she didn't even look at Soong Moran and me. She just silently ate the dishes in front of her, as if the two of us didn't exist at all.

My sister's reaction made me uncomfortable. She could have hit me or scolded me, but I didn't want to see her like this.

In front of Soong Moran, the two sisters were like catfish waiting to be slaughtered on a chopping board, never to be turned over. Looking at this seemingly harmless man in front of me, I secretly resolved to bring my sister away from him.

After dinner, my sister left without a moment's pause. Soong Moran and I were the only ones left in the huge house. Seeing him sitting on the sofa watching TV, he didn't have any intention of leaving immediately. I could only try to stay as far away from him as possible.

Halfway upstairs, Soong Moran called me back.

"Lin Xiaoxiao, come here."

I tried to resist and said, "I still have a lot of homework to do. I'll go and do it."

But it didn't work at all.

"Come here."

Soong Moran's tone was very firm. I didn't want to provoke him, so I gave up struggling and sat beside him.

"Are you that afraid of me?" The man narrowed his eyes and leaned over. A vague aura spread between us.

"No, no." "No," I deny, trying to stay calm.

"Then you don't believe me?" He leaned in closer, and I almost collapsed on the couch, his handsome face pressed against mine, and my heart began to beat faster.

I tried not to panic. "Should I believe you?" I asked.
