Mother Bai forced a smile and said, “Minxing is right. Yaya, you should apologize to Miss Luo.”
Bai Yaya bit her lip, clearly unwilling.
But before coming here, her parents had repeatedly reminded her to appease the Leng family and avoid offending anyone else. If they lost even a fraction of their goodwill, the Leng family would never agree to work with the Bai family again.
After Leng Minxing pulled his investment some time ago, the friends who usually played with her now laughed at her and asked if her family was going bankrupt. It made her unable to raise her head outside!
Thinking about this, Bai Yaya gritted her teeth in hatred, thinking that it was all Luo Xi’s fault, but now she had to apologize to her!
Seeing her daughter still reluctant, Mother Bai pinched her anxiously.
The pain snapped Bai Yaya back to reality. She looked up to see everyone staring at her. Her eyes landed on Luo Xi. She gritted her teeth and said, “I’m sorry, Miss Luo. What happened recently was my fault. Please forgive me!”
Luo Xi let out a half-smile. “So many things happened recently. Which incident is Miss Bai apologizing for?”
Bai Yaya froze slightly.
Mother Bai quickly stepped forward and said apologetically, “Miss Luo, I know Yaya must have caused you a lot of trouble in the past. I sincerely apologize on her behalf and hope you can forgive her.”
“Since Auntie is stepping forward, I won’t dwell on the past. I just hope Miss Bai can be more self-respecting in the future. A woman of proper upbringing wouldn’t get close to a married man, lest something go wrong later. Not only would it bring shame upon herself, but it would also bring trouble to her family.” Luo Xi smiled lightly, but her words were growing sharper with each sentence.
Her words were a clear warning to Bai Yaya, hinting at her lack of upbringing and morals.
After all, it was Bai Yaya who had been trying to win back Leng Minxing and wanted to marry him.
Although Luo Xi came after her, it was Bai Yaya who gave up first.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of those present turned somewhat awkward.
But they had to admit that she had a point.
It was just that it sounded particularly harsh to some people.
Bai Yaya felt that she should have been the Leng family’s young madam, and Luo Xi was not worthy of saying such words. Anger and resentment surged within her. She wished she could strangle Luo Xi to death.
But her mother kept giving her looks to stop her. This made Bai Yaya confused as to why her parents weren’t standing up for her after she was insulted like this!
Bai Yaya felt so angry that tears started welling up in her eyes.
Seeing her best friend on the verge of tears after being scolded, Lin Xuan couldn’t contain her anger. She quickly stood up for her friend and looked at Luo Xi with dissatisfaction. “How can you say that to Yaya? You’re going too far, Luo Xi!”
“Oh? Too far?” Luo Xi chuckled. “Does Miss Lin think it’s normal for your boyfriend’s ex to call him brother in front of you? Then are you going to call her sister intimately?”
Lin Xuan was momentarily at a loss for words.
Old Lady Leng stepped in to mediate, “Alright, since Xixi has chosen not to pursue this matter further, let’s consider it settled. Everyone should get along as they normally would without causing any more fuss over trivial matters. It’s unbecoming!”
Seeing her slightly angry look, everyone dared not speak.
