Chapter 4; Where did you go?

The chauffeur didn't like Mingyue as she treated her mistress terribly bad. Mingyue was happy that after being reborn, the first person she sees was her friend, so she sat down on the empty space beside her before closing the car door.

"Ah Xue, can I hug you?" she turned around eying Bai Xue, as she politely requested and Bai Xue lunged forward hugging her, she hugged her back tightly but in her heart, she was apologizing to her. She had failed her in her previous life.

"What happened?" Bai Xue noticed Mingyue's emotions were unstable and thought something must have happened to her, the chauffeur drove away to the Gu family mansion.

She didn't respond and she was still hugging her with tears but she had fallen asleep in her arms after that longing.

"Missus, be careful..." the chauffeur warned her seeing Gu Mingyue was asleep, those people who change their attitudes easily and suddenly were vipers.

"It's okay.." people might think Mingyue was a bad person, but she knew she was a kindhearted person, she had saved her several times and that was the reason she could withstand her attitude, to her, she was waiting for an opportunity to repay her gratitude.

They arrived at the Gu mansion in twenty minutes, it was almost 8 pm, and Bai Xue gently patted her shoulders waking her up.

"Ah, sorry... You should have woken me up!" she felt embarrassed seeing the marks she had left on her arms.

"It's okay, good night... Hey can I have your number..." she politely requested warmly eying her with anticipation.

"Ah Xue, my phone got spoilt and haven't bought a new one, how about you come over tomorrow to the mansion, we can study together..." she softly mumbled seeing her friend's disheartened and dimmed eyes when she said her phone was lost. She explained so that she couldn't misunderstand her.

"Really?" Bai Xue's eyes sparkled gazing at her adoringly.

"Yeah..." she got her back bag before alighting and closed the car door, she waved her hand before opening the iron gate and walked into the compound.

She strode through the pavement and halted midway sighing before proceeding, she walked into the living room and could see how the entire family was happily conversing with each other.

"Where are you coming from at this hour? Did you go to that boy's home seducing him all over again? " Mei Lu got a slipper from the rack and began beating her up, she didn't flinch nor lift her bowed head.

"Mother, it's not her fault, she might have been delayed in class.." Gu Ting spoke up for her but nobody knew how hypocritical those words sounded to Mingyue.

"Hahaha..." she giggled without saying a word. Everyone gazed at her weird act and cold eyes. It wasn't a normal reaction.

"What are you laughing about?" she forcefully hit her, furiously irked with her attitude and increased her strength beating the hell out of her.

"Mingyue, you left your bracelet in my car!" Bai Xue rushed into the living room only to be greeted by that scene.

"Where did you go? Speak up! What a promiscuous girl, you only think of seducing men.. " Mei Lu was maddened by her nonchalant attitude but Bai Xue understood what was the problem, she rushed forward and pulled Mingyue to the side protecting her.

"She was with me, we just went out to get dinner but something happened on the way and thus we didn't go as planned..." Bai Xue spoke out explaining, Mingyue lifted her head gazing at Bai Xue, this was her true friend, the only person who would protect her even if she is in the wrong. The only person who would stand up for her come rain come sunshine.

" You should be home by now... " Her gaze and eyes were warm looking at Bai Xue as she softly pinched her cheeks. It was like that beating earlier on wasn't happening to her, her smile was warm, and she smiled from ear to ear.
