Chapter 132 The Bai Family's Hatred
Wei Ting also knew that Miss Ye's mother was the eldest daughter of the Bai family, a prominent family, and a princess-like woman among women of their age. How could a child from such a family not be doted on like a pampered girl?
Not to mention that she now had Young Master Zi protecting her. Judging by Young Master Zi's anxious demeanor, he must care a lot about Miss Ye. She was truly an enviable girl, receiving so much affection, how fortunate she was.
Wei Ting thought of her own poor daughter, who had lost her father and her brother. Now, she and her old father could only rely on Young Master Zi for fleeting stability. She only wished her daughter could live safely; then she and her old father would have no regrets.
"Let's all disperse. Shengge has an early class tomorrow."
Ye Mu En was in a hurry to contact her parents. If she didn't inform them of such an important matter tonight, she wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully.
"Young Master Zi, I need to use the phone."
"Mm, contacting Uncle Ye requires calling the office, and contacting Aunt Bai means calling the Bai family."
Ye Mu En's mouth twitched. This guy knew his family's whereabouts better than he did.
Zi Yi Sheng did not go to the study. Instead, he returned to his room on the second floor early, his room adjacent to the little girl's. He and Ye Mu En guarded the little girl from either side, making it convenient to care for her.
Ye Mu En first called her father. When it came to her sister's matters, her mother was completely irrational.
Father Ye pondered for a moment on the phone and resolutely agreed, as he wished his daughter to have a completely healthy body.
"Then let's do it. I'll try my best to make time to go over."
"Can you get away from your end?"
"I'll sneak away. I want to see Shengge."
"Mm."
Ye Mu En swallowed the words she wanted to say to dissuade him, hoping her father wouldn't cry when he saw his sister now.
Bai Le Qi had already gone to bed but was woken up to take a call. Thinking that her son calling her at this hour must mean her daughter was in trouble, her legs immediately went weak. She was helped downstairs by her sister-in-law.
"Mu En, did something happen?"
A crowd of people were sitting in the Bai family's living room, all anxiously watching Bai Le Qi's expression, fearing they would see her in pain.
Ye Mu En did not conceal anything and told them everything.
When Bai Le Qi thought about what her daughter had endured since childhood, she immediately burst into tears. Now her daughter had to endure so much more. Why was her daughter's life so difficult?
"My darling, how much more does heaven want her to endure? I just want her to live, why is it so hard?"
Had their entire family transmigrated to this strange and difficult world, and heaven still wouldn't let her daughter go? What more did it want?
"Mom, don't cry. Little Ge'er will be fine after she gets through this. We've persevered for so long, we can afford to wait a little longer. It's always better than before, at least there's hope."
Bai Le Qi wiped away her tears and forced herself to be strong.
"Yes, Mu En is right. I've waited for so long, what more can I not wait for? I'll set off tomorrow. I want to accompany my darling through this."
"Okay, Xiao Ge'er misses you terribly. She'll be very happy to see you, and she'll eat a big bowl of rice."
"Okay, okay, I'll go keep my daughter company and eat well."
After Bai Le Qi hung up the phone, she could no longer control her wails. She had been enduring since she arrived in this world. She had finally found her daughter, only to hear that her body was still in that state, and now this news.
So she just wanted to vent, to vent uncontrollably. But her outburst made Grandpa Bai and Grandma Bai, who were standing by, frantic. What had happened to their granddaughter whom they had never met?
"Le Qi, what's wrong with the child?"
Grandma Bai's voice trembled. She was afraid. She was afraid that her daughter, having finally found her child, would experience something bad again. Then her daughter would surely not be able to bear it, and she wouldn't be able to live either.
Bai Le Qi thought of her parents' advanced age and felt guilty for her irrational behavior, seeing her parents' distressed faces.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry. Young Master Zi has found several good doctors for Shengge, and they plan to treat the child. There's just a little risk. I'm crying because I'm heartbroken for the child."
Bai Le Qi had accepted the original host's family. They all loved her as much as her family in her previous life, so she had to be filial to them on behalf of the original host.
The Bai family members were relieved. Who could have imagined that their biological granddaughter had been living in obscurity, while their home housed a bastard who had occupied their biological granddaughter's life? Were they angry? Did they hate? They hated immensely but had to endure, lest they alert the enemy.
"Don't cry, daughter. Mom will go with you. We'll accompany that poor child together, let her know that she has many relatives who care about her, and she's not alone and pitiful."
Grandma Bai's words were echoed by everyone present in the Bai family. They only had one daughter and one granddaughter in the Bai family. How could they not be concerned?
"Mom, you're old, don't come with me. And you can't leave Dad at home. If you're not here, Dad will secretly drink. My sisters-in-law can't control him."
Grandpa Bai was still sad when he heard his daughter's words and glared angrily.
"You want to leave me behind and run off? Do you want to? I'm going to see my precious grandchild too."
"Dad, stop fooling around."
"Exactly, Dad. As soon as you leave Mingcheng, a group of people will know."
Eldest Brother Bai and Second Brother Bai quickly tried to stop him.
Grandpa Bai was so angry at the current situation that he smashed his teacup.
"Damn it, I'm trapped now, right? These scoundrels, I'll fight them to the death. I don't even have freedom now."
Bai Le Qi saw how angry her grandfather was and quickly went to comfort him.
"Dad, this is the situation now. It's not just targeting our Bai family. You must stay calm. Our Bai family relies on you, the stabilizing force. If you get sick from anger, it will all be for nothing."
Grandpa Bai had been hot-tempered since he was young. Usually, only his wife and beloved daughter could appease him when he lost his temper. Hearing his daughter's words, he immediately regained his reason. His wife, standing by, rolled her eyes.
The Bai brothers and their wives breathed a sigh of relief. They couldn't bear Grandpa's anger.
The Bai family was a large family, and they had not yet split up. Their family relationships were rare in their unity and affection.
Bai Le Qi had four older brothers: Eldest Brother Bai Shu Zhao, Second Brother Bai Shu Yi, Third Brother Bai Shu Ming, and Fourth Brother Bai Shu Mu.
All four were married and had children. All their children were boys, and they wished they had a sweet daughter. Therefore, everyone not only doted on Bai Le Qi but also doted on Ye Ya Ge. But now they knew that the child they had doted on for over a decade was fake. Who could accept that?
