âAt such a young age, she sure has a lot of thoughts.â
âI was just speaking up for her. It seems like I was really blind to be deceived by a little girl.â
âLook at that little girlâs hands. If I had to say, itâs all her fault. Itâs been so long, and the handprints still havenât disappeared. Who knows how much strength she used at that time?â
âSheâs so young, yet sheâs so good at pretending to be pitiful.â
âI say, the Shen family did the right thing by not letting her get close to the Shen family. Sheâs not the child of the Shen family to begin with, yet she still canât behave herself.â
â¦
Shen Xueâs face was pale. She heard the people around her belittle her to nothing. She wanted to escape as soon as possible, but she didnât even have the strength to stand up.
Song Li looked at her with disgust. She had no intention of going forward to protect her.
âDo you feel it? Thatâs what Xiao Yu and Millie were told just now. Do you feel good?â
Second Auntâs heart ached when she thought of how scared Millie looked just now.
âLetâs just forget about todayâs matter. Donât provoke Xiao Yu again, and donât appear in front of Millie,â she said to Song Li.
When she told her everything, Song Li completely ignored her daughter and wanted to hide herself in the crowd. Second Aunt looked at Shen Xue, who was slumped on the ground, and suddenly felt a little sympathetic.
âLetâs go. Letâs go back.â Second Aunt went forward and held Emilyâs hand to take a closer look. She was relieved when she saw that it was only frighteningly red.
Emily obediently walked behind Second Aunt. Her eyes were red. She was touched.
âThank you, Second Aunt.â Just as they got into the car, Emily looked at Second Aunt and thanked her solemnly.
Second Aunt snorted. She no longer had the arrogant look from before.
âYou silly child. We are a family. If Second Aunt doesnât help you, do you think she will help Shen Xue? But you, child, why didnât you say anything when your hand was injured? If you cried when Shen Xue cried, how could you be bullied by Shen Xue?â
Second Aunt was a little disappointed. Emilyâs personality was too soft, so she would be easily bullied.
âNo, Second Aunt, Iâm not in pain. Itâs just that you suddenly asked me, and I didnât know how to answer. I casually said it. Itâs just that my skin is originally sensitive, so itâs easy for it to turn red.â
Emily hurriedly waved her hand, and then used her other hand to press on the red area, indicating that she really wasnât in pain.
âOh, it seems that our Millie is still a smart child.â Second Aunt smiled and praised her without any politeness. Emily instantly blushed, and then looked at Second Aunt with a face full of admiration.
âSecond Aunt, you were amazing just now. Your strength is really great.â
âSilly girl, itâs not that I have great strength. This is called skillful strength. If you learn this, not to mention Shen Xue, even if a strong man is in front of you, you can beat him down.â
Shen Xueâs eyes widened in shock. âSo powerful? Second Aunt, can you teach me?â
Second Aunt looked at Emilyâs small figure and shook her head with a smile.
âWhen you are a little older, Second Aunt will teach you. You are still too young and not suitable. Itâs just that you are about to go to school. You canât be so soft anymore. You will be easily bullied.â
âDonât worry. When the time comes, Sixth Brother and Brother will be in school. I wonât be bullied.â Emily hurriedly shook her head.
Shen Yu looked at Emily who was sitting at the side. Seeing that she was actually so dependent on him, he was instantly satisfied. It was just that it would be best if Shen Nan was not included.
âXiao Yu, if something like this happens again in the future, you just have to pull Millie away. There are so many people. What if she gets hurt?â
Second Aunt was a little scared when she thought of what had happened just now. What if some of those people were impulsive and hurt them?
âNo, Second Aunt. Brother was going to take me with him, but Shen Xue held me and refused to let me go. My wrist was caught red at that time. But when you suddenly asked me that, I thought that Brother couldnât ignore Shen Xue for no reason, so I said that my hand was hurt.â
Emily lowered her head in guilt. No matter what, she had lied. Her mother had said that lying was not a good thing.
She was not a good thing. Emily bit her lip and tried not to cry.
