Chapter 59: The Turn

“At such a young age, she sure has a lot of thoughts.”

“I was just speaking up for her. It seems like I was really blind to be deceived by a little girl.”

“Look at that little girl’s hands. If I had to say, it’s all her fault. It’s been so long, and the handprints still haven’t disappeared. Who knows how much strength she used at that time?”

“She’s so young, yet she’s so good at pretending to be pitiful.”

“I say, the Shen family did the right thing by not letting her get close to the Shen family. She’s not the child of the Shen family to begin with, yet she still can’t behave herself.”

…

Shen Xue’s face was pale. She heard the people around her belittle her to nothing. She wanted to escape as soon as possible, but she didn’t even have the strength to stand up.

Song Li looked at her with disgust. She had no intention of going forward to protect her.

“Do you feel it? That’s what Xiao Yu and Millie were told just now. Do you feel good?”

Second Aunt’s heart ached when she thought of how scared Millie looked just now.

“Let’s just forget about today’s matter. Don’t provoke Xiao Yu again, and don’t appear in front of Millie,” she said to Song Li.

When she told her everything, Song Li completely ignored her daughter and wanted to hide herself in the crowd. Second Aunt looked at Shen Xue, who was slumped on the ground, and suddenly felt a little sympathetic.

“Let’s go. Let’s go back.” Second Aunt went forward and held Emily’s hand to take a closer look. She was relieved when she saw that it was only frighteningly red.

Emily obediently walked behind Second Aunt. Her eyes were red. She was touched.

“Thank you, Second Aunt.” Just as they got into the car, Emily looked at Second Aunt and thanked her solemnly.

Second Aunt snorted. She no longer had the arrogant look from before.

“You silly child. We are a family. If Second Aunt doesn’t help you, do you think she will help Shen Xue? But you, child, why didn’t you say anything when your hand was injured? If you cried when Shen Xue cried, how could you be bullied by Shen Xue?”

Second Aunt was a little disappointed. Emily’s personality was too soft, so she would be easily bullied.

“No, Second Aunt, I’m not in pain. It’s just that you suddenly asked me, and I didn’t know how to answer. I casually said it. It’s just that my skin is originally sensitive, so it’s easy for it to turn red.”

Emily hurriedly waved her hand, and then used her other hand to press on the red area, indicating that she really wasn’t in pain.

“Oh, it seems that our Millie is still a smart child.” Second Aunt smiled and praised her without any politeness. Emily instantly blushed, and then looked at Second Aunt with a face full of admiration.

“Second Aunt, you were amazing just now. Your strength is really great.”

“Silly girl, it’s not that I have great strength. This is called skillful strength. If you learn this, not to mention Shen Xue, even if a strong man is in front of you, you can beat him down.”

Shen Xue’s eyes widened in shock. “So powerful? Second Aunt, can you teach me?”

Second Aunt looked at Emily’s small figure and shook her head with a smile.

“When you are a little older, Second Aunt will teach you. You are still too young and not suitable. It’s just that you are about to go to school. You can’t be so soft anymore. You will be easily bullied.”

“Don’t worry. When the time comes, Sixth Brother and Brother will be in school. I won’t be bullied.” Emily hurriedly shook her head.

Shen Yu looked at Emily who was sitting at the side. Seeing that she was actually so dependent on him, he was instantly satisfied. It was just that it would be best if Shen Nan was not included.

“Xiao Yu, if something like this happens again in the future, you just have to pull Millie away. There are so many people. What if she gets hurt?”

Second Aunt was a little scared when she thought of what had happened just now. What if some of those people were impulsive and hurt them?

“No, Second Aunt. Brother was going to take me with him, but Shen Xue held me and refused to let me go. My wrist was caught red at that time. But when you suddenly asked me that, I thought that Brother couldn’t ignore Shen Xue for no reason, so I said that my hand was hurt.”

Emily lowered her head in guilt. No matter what, she had lied. Her mother had said that lying was not a good thing.

She was not a good thing. Emily bit her lip and tried not to cry.
