When the girl across the ocean saw this WeChat message, her expression deepened. She replied, âDonât anger your cousin, behave yourself.â
When she saw this reply, Huo Yuqi sat up and protested, âIâm already very well-behaved! It was that girl who bullied me! She was nasty! Very nasty!â
The pair of siblings from the Huo family were big fans of Ling Wei.
âIâm sure your cousin will teach her a lesson if she had dared to bully you.â
âI donât even know whatâs wrong with Cousin. First, he had beaten my brother up because of that woman. And now he has even heartlessly asked me to leave!â Huo Yuqi became furious all over again when she said this.
As the sole daughter of a wealthy family, she had been pampered by everybody. Although her stone-faced cousin was not as gentle as the other males in doting on her, he would always come to her aid when she needed it. Now, he wanted her to leave!
When the girl saw this message, she paused for a moment.
The next day, during breakfast.
âItâs not yet the semestral break. Why are you back?â Bao Junyan asked as he looked at Huo Yuqi.
âIâm back here as an exchange student at Yun University. Mom says I am to stay with you.â As Huo Yuqi was still angry at him, she refused to address him.
Mu Huan: â...â
This meant that not only would she see the girl at home, but sheâd even see her at school?
This would be awkward.
They were so at odds with each other but would have to see each other every day.
Bao Junyan creased his brow and said, âYou were the one crying and insisting on going abroad to study. Why do you come back now as an exchange student?â
âAt the time, I thought Long Feiting was going to study in England. Who would have known that heâd end up coming to Yun University?!â Huo Yuqi twitched her mouth.
However, the real reason she was back was to accomplish an important mission. And that was to get rid of the woman that her cousin had married. Her cousin was to belong to Sister Ling Wei and no one else!
Mu Huan looked like nothing good, and certainly, she was not good enough for her cousin!
âHavenât I told you not to keep chasing after that lad from the Long family?â Bao Junyan was clearly displeased.
âOnce Iâve got him, Iâll dump him for good,â the girl replied.
Mu Huan: â...â
Did the girl really like Long Feiting or what?
Bao Junyan: â...â
Kids nowadays, so rebellious.
He was about to speak when his cell phone rang. It was his mother. He looked rather displeased after the call. They really spoiled this child, Yuqi, and let her get away with all her nonsense.
âIâve transferred to Long Feitingâs class. I hear that Sister-in-law is in that class too. From now on, Iâll go to school with Sister-in-law!â Huo Yuqi said as she looked across at Mu Huan.
Sheâd surely find out a few things about her that would be good enough reasons for her cousin to get rid of her!
Mu Huan: â...â
It was awkward enough to be in the same school, and now they had to be in the same class!
Seriously...
âYou can stay here, but from now on, if you are even a little bit disrespectful toward your sister-in-law, I will send you home!â Bao Junyan warned her sternly.
âI was too angry yesterday. All my life, Iâve never had to fight anyone for anything. That was why I said those things I said. Itâs all water under the bridge now. Iâm not going to create trouble over such small matters!â Last night, when she had chatted with her brother on video, her brother had advised her against confronting Mu Huan openly. Otherwise, sheâd be asked to leave in no time.
âApologize to your sister-in-law, then. Both of you shake hands, and from now on, get on harmoniously as a family,â Bao Junyan said.
His parents both were loving and they valued kinship. Growing up in such an environment, although cold and aloof in nature, Bao Junyan cared about his family and wanted everyone to get along.
âApologize?â It was plainly written across the girlâs face that this wasnât going to happen. Why should she apologize when she had done nothing wrong?
âIf you donât want to, then go home now!â Bao Junyan said in his deep voice.
