Ling Xiao’s face fell upon seeing Qi Xin’s reaction.

“This is the girl who saved Auntie Qin’s life, and my own.”

Qi Xin was surprised.

“She saved you?”

Her expression changed subtly as she looked at Xia Xibei’s delicate face.

“Mom, don’t you think she could have approached you on purpose?”

Ling Xiao’s face turned dreary as she admonished her, “Qi Xin! Stop talking nonsense!”

Qi Xin wasn’t daunted. Instead, she stared warily at Xia Xibei. “I’m not talking nonsense! Bigfoot told me all about what happened just now. No ordinary person could have moved that fast, unless she’s-”

Before she could finish, however, Ling Xiao slammed the table hard and cut her off.

“Shut up!”

Ling Xiao was so angry that she almost choked. Her daughter must be really spoiled to be speaking so senselessly.

Look at her saying such unkind words! What would Xia Xibei think of that?

She had risked her life to save them, but her daughter was doubting her instead of being grateful. Who wouldn’t get angry?

“Xia, don’t be mad, my daughter is still young. It’s our fault that we’ve spoiled her so much that she turns out to be so insensible…”

Xia Xibei wasn’t mad.

She’d noticed that Qi Xin knew martial arts the moment she came in. She could tell Qi Xin was no ordinary girl from her gait and breathing.

Furthermore, from the way this trio dressed and behaved, she knew that they were exceptionally wealthy.

It was normal for wealthy people to think things further and get paranoid easily.

However, Xia Xibei wasn’t interested in entertaining her.

“Auntie Xiao, how old is she?”

“She’s seventeen. She’ll turn eighteen in a few months…”

“Oh, she’s about the same age as I am,” Xia Xibei said with a half-hearted smile.

Both Ling Xiao and Liu Yiqin were wise people, and they felt pretty awkward after what Xia Xibei said.

Sure enough, they understood exactly what Xia Xibei was implying.

The two girls were about the same age. However, Ling Xiao called Qi Xin “young and insensible,” while Xia Xibei was mature and well-behaved. What a joke!

Ling Xiao’s expression turned even more awful, but her displeasure was directed at her daughter.

“Qi Xin! Go home and copy the house rules a hundred times!”

“Mom?!”

Qi Xin’s eyes went wide. How did she end up being the victim?

The Qi’s house rules were lengthy and copious, and writing them a hundred times could possibly kill her!

“Shut up!” Ling Xiao kept a straight, grim face, which instantly shut Qi Xin up.

Qi Xin wasn’t a fool, she knew exactly who got her into this mess, and couldn’t help but shoot Xia Xibei a death glare.

Xia Xibei was speechless at the hostility that came out of nowhere.

Why did she always get picked on? She didn’t do anything wrong.

Ling Xiao shot a fierce glare at her daughter, before turning to Xia Xibei.

“Xia, I apologize to you on behalf of Xin. Please forgive her foolish remarks.”

Xia Xibei gave a slight smile. “No need to apologize, I didn’t take it to heart.”

However, she rose to her feet.

“I have to go now. I’ve got things to do.”

“Umm…”

“I’ve wasted quite a lot of time already.” She looked at them sincerely. “I’m leaving the day after tomorrow, and I’m planning to bring some delicacies back.”

“I could help-”

“It’s alright, I can manage it on my own. You should carry on. I have to go now.”

She turned to leave before they could speak.

Ling Xiao watched her back as she left and couldn’t help but panic a little. She had a feeling that something was gone.

“Qiang, follow her and see where she’s settling.”

“Sure, ma’am.”

Qiang quickly went to catch up with Xia Xibei. However, he returned in just a few minutes, looking abashed.

“I’m sorry ma’am, I lost track of her.”

“You lost track of her?!”

The three of them were stunned.
