Chapter 896: Chapter 896: Moving Out
"Really, Dr. Xue invited you to Ruiyin?" Yu Feiyuan was skeptical, but when she thought about it, if Bai Xiao really had a stroke of luck, managed to save the representative of the delegation, and truly earned recognition, it might actually be possible. Isn’t it often said that opportunity is key?
Receiving recognition from Dr. Xue is more significant than any kind of backdoor connection.
If she could study under Dr. Xue, she’d definitely be a lead surgeon at Ruiyin.
Yu Feiyuan widened her eyes, now looking at Bai Xiao with a glimmer of hope. "Bai Xiao, we’re family. Help me out! From now on, I’ll treat you like a real sister."
Bai Xiao nearly spit out her food.
What kind of karma had she accumulated to deserve this?
She only stepped in to help her uncle but ended up fooling herself.
And anyway, what made this woman think she cared so much about their fragile so-called sisterly bond?
Yu Feixue was the first to burst into laughter.
"Unbelievable. Yu Feiyuan, who do you think you are? You say a few words about treating someone as a sister, and Bai Xiao is supposed to drop everything to help you? Are you out of your mind? You’ve really overestimated your importance. You think everyone should revolve around you, don’t you? Acting like some Modu socialite, looking down on others, yet still wanting their help — aren’t you being a bit hypocritical? Bai Xiao, don’t bother with her. I’ll take you and Brother-in-Law An to check out the room. Brother-in-Law An must be tired from the journey. You two should rest well. There’s no need to waste time on people who are so shameless."
Yu Feiyuan’s true intentions were laid bare, leaving her face stinging from embarrassment.
Where did Yu Feixue’s loyalties lie? They shared the same last name—they were the real family here. Bai Xiao was nothing more than an outsider. Why would Yu Feixue side with Bai Xiao to bully her?
"Xiaoxue, don’t overstep. I’m your elder sister!"
The elder aunt spoke up angrily as well. "Xiaoxue, don’t turn your back on your family. You and Yuanyuan share the same blood! How could you possibly side with an outsider to bully Yuanyuan? If Yuanyuan is doing well, won’t you all benefit in the future? When something goes wrong, isn’t it better to have someone in the hospital? Do you think big hospitals are easy to get access to? Everything that girl says — why do you believe it? Can you really trust her? Someone as important as Dr. Xue inviting her? I think Xiaoxue just said that on purpose because you didn’t want Bai Xiao to lose face."
Bai Xiao set down her chopsticks. "Grandma, Grandpa, Zhiyuan and I will stay at a hotel instead. We don’t want to interrupt your meal. Zhiyuan has had a long journey and needs to rest." Regardless of how absurdly this peculiar elder aunt acted or spoke, Bai Xiao wasn’t intending to escalate things — her grandparents were still here, after all.
She couldn’t let her own discomfort be the reason to make a scene and demand everyone focus on her as if she had her own ’main character syndrome.’
But they could certainly leave, no question about that.
This family—so full of disdain for others yet expecting favors—really made her wonder where their confidence came from.
Grandma grew anxious. "Xiao, aren’t you and Little An staying here? I’ve already tidied up a room for you! Staying out would be so inconvenient. Just ignore whatever others say — we, your grandparents and uncle, are your true family." Her underlying message: pay no attention to what Yu Da Bo and the others were saying.
Bai Xiao smiled. "Grandma, it’s easier for us to stay elsewhere. To be honest, we didn’t want to trouble you in the first place. With your age, taking care of us would only be a burden for you, and I can’t reconcile with that." Neither she nor Zhiyuan had any desire to live in the elderly grandparents’ home — moving in was easy, but moving out? Now that’d be a challenge.
And yet, the elder aunt still had the audacity to chime in, picking apart her reasoning.
"Hmph, if it weren’t for us being here, I bet you would’ve pushed your way in already. Now you’re bringing your husband to move in? Xiaoxue, you are just hopelessly naïve. If they move in and butter up your grandma, just watch—by then, the house will surely belong to them. You really do have the nerve to overlook such things."
