There was a sound from the bathroom in room four. The cameramen, who was sitting in the courtyard and chatting, immediately stood up. However, Chen Xiaomei and Bai Ruirui were both girls. They were a little hesitant and couldnât barge in directly. Yet something was obviously wrong. They were a little anxious. The cameramen thought for a moment and went to invite Fu Xin.
âIt looks like Bai Ruirui is crying,â Jiang Xinyuan whispered.
Fu Xin was also pricking up her ears to listen to the commotion. She frowned and didnât reply. But at this moment, there was another sound from the bathroom. After a series of sounds of things falling, there was the sound of something hitting the wall. Then, Bai Ruiruiâs cries became louder and louder, and she vaguely shouted, âMom, no!â
When Fu Xin heard this, she couldnât sit still anymore. She casually stuffed the phone into Jiang Xinyuanâs hand. âHelp me play. Iâll go take a look.â With that, she got out of bed and left. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jiang Xinyuan looked at the game page on his phone and then at his motherâs back. In the end, he put down his phone and followed behind his mother. Although there was a cameraman around, he still had to follow his mother and protect her. Who knew what a bad woman could do? After they left the room, the comments exploded.
[Whatâs going on?]
[Xinyuan say that itâs Bai Ruirui?]
[The little kid is crying so sadly. Did you hear the bangs?]
[No, where?]
[I heard it when I turned the volume to the maximum. Itâs a little scary. Itâs as if something hit a wall!]
[F*ck, Chen Xiaomei wonât hit the child, right?]
[No way, Ruirui is still so youngâ¦]
When she got close to the bathroom, Fu Xin stopped in her tracks. Considering their privacy, she chased the cameraman aside. First, she knocked on the door, but there was no response. Then, she pressed her ear against the door. This time, she could clearly hear Bai Ruirui crying.
âMom, donât hit the wall. I wonât cry anymore. Pinch me⦠Mom⦠Boohooâ¦â
So it was Chen Xiaomeiâs head that made the sound? She didnât hit the wall with the child, but she hit her head against the wall? But why did Chen Xiaomei hit her head against the wall? From what Bai Ruirui said, she even pinched Bai Ruirul?
Fu Xin didnât have time to think and continued to knock on the door. âChen
Xiaomei? Open the door quickly!â But after saving this, she felt that Chen
Xiaomei might be delirious now. Otherwise, a normal person shouldnât be able to hit his head against the wall. Hence, Fu Xin changed her tone to a gentler one and said to Bai Ruirui, âRuirui, is your mother feeling unwell? Open the door for Auntie and let her in to take a look. Otherwise, itâs too dangerous, donât you think so?â
However, before she could finish speaking, the voices suddenly stopped.
The sound of her head hitting the wall had disappeared, and Bai Ruiruiâs cries had also disappeared. The bathroom was silent, as if nothing had happened just now, but sometimes, being too quiet made one more worried.
Fu Xin leaned against the door and listened for a while. She thought that if there was still no movement, she would kick the door open. But at this moment, the door was pulled open suddenly. Fu Xin almost fell in.
Chen Xiaomeiâs hair was dripping with water, and her hair was stuck to her face. Her forehead was mostly covered, blocking Fu Xinâs probing gaze. She actually wanted to see if there were any scars on Chen Xiaomeiâs forehead.
Without waiting for Fu Xin to speak, Chen Xiaomei beat her to it in an impatient tone. âThe floor of your bathroom is too slippery! Can you get the production team to buy an anti-slip pad? Donât the owners of this house have old people at home? I really didnât notice it at all. Itâs fine if I fall since Iâm young, but if itâs an old person, theyâll fall to their death!â
Fu Xin: â⦠So, the sound you made inside just now was just a fall?â
âWhat else? What? What do you want me to do?â Chen Xiaomei asked angrily.
Fu Xin didnât want to talk to her anymore. She resisted the urge to roll her eyes. From the corner of her eye, she looked at Bai Ruirui, who had her head lowered, and said patiently, âThen why was Ruirui crying just now? Ruirui, tell me.â
âI fell. Sheâs crying because she;s worried. Is there a problem? Isnât it just taking a shower in your bathroom? Itâs too troublesome,â Chen Xiaomei said first. Then, she held Bai Ruiruiâs hand and turned to leave.
Fu Xin was speechless. The last time she was so speechless was the last time!
Why did she feel that Chen Xiaomeiâs mental state seemed a little abnormal? Which normal person was like this?
Chen Xiaomei only took a few steps before she shook off Bai Ruiruiâs hand. She didnât care if Bai Ruiruiâs short legs could keep up, but she walked very quickly. This forced Bai Ruirui to jog to keep up. The sky was already dark, and it was a rural dirt road with potholes. Bai Ruirui accidentally tripped and fell to the ground, but Chen Xiaomei didnât stop..
