When she thought about it, it did seem quite scary for someone to have tried to hurt her by all manner of means.

"What are you planning to do?" he asked. Now that he knew that Su Lin was ill, he knew he had chosen well.

"What else can we do? Uncle Su has come to beg us for help…" Mu Xiaoxiao sighed deeply. Her heart was heavy.

Even though she didn"t have a close relations.h.i.+p with the Su family because she and Su Lin were enemies, Uncle and Auntie Su were quite nice to her whenever they met. Also, she could tell that they really loved Su Lin.

It might be because Su Lin was the child they had longed for for a long time.

The Su"s had Su Lin when they were older, so they treated her as if she were a jewel, never wanting her to suffer anything at all.

This could be why Su Lin was rude and unreasonable.

Feng Shengyang seemed to be able to tell what she was thinking. His gaze deepened as he looked at her and said, "You"re too kind."

Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head and denied. "I"m not… I"m also very, very angry."

Su Lin caused her to endure a friend"s betrayal, and even caused her to be in danger over and over again. Mu Xiaoxiao couldn"t forgive her.

"But… I don"t know what to do…"

She thought about Uncle Su, who had begged them desperately.

Parental love seemed like a pitiful thing.

Mu Xiaoxiao thought about her own parents. Every parent was willing to sacrifice anything for their children.

Uncle Su was the same. Even if he had to lower his pride and beg his juniors humbly for help, he only wanted nothing more than his child to be well.

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at Feng Shengyang. Smiling bitterly, she said, "What do you think I should do? I can"t do whatever she did to me to her as revenge, right? If I do that, how am I different from her?"

Feng Shengyang stared at her, an unspeakable emotion churning in his heart.

Suddenly, he felt like protecting the girl right in front of him.

Mu Xiaoxiao wiped her face and said, "I want to make a call. May I?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Shengyang guessed that she was going to call Yin Shaojie. His gaze became a little heavy but he still said, "Sure."

Mu Xiaoxiao took her phone out. Walking two steps to the side, she made a call to Yin Shaojie.

The phone didn"t even ring twice before Yin Shaojie picked up.

"Jie…" She called out softly, a dependency in her voice that she herself couldn"t hear.

Feng Shengyang"s gaze s.h.i.+fted slightly. He stared at her little face, observing every expression she was making.

These expressions were made only for Yin Shaojie.

Mu Xiaoxiao told Yin Shaojie what Feng Shengyang had told her verbatim. "It"s like what you had said. Su Lin is the mastermind. What do we do now? Jie, I"m confused. Whenever I think of Uncle Su… I can"t bring myself to do it, but I loathe Su Lin too."

"You don"t have to think about anything. I"m right here, and I"ll settle everything." Yin Shaojie comforted her.

After hanging up.

Yin Shaojie looked at Su Lin, his gaze heavy.

Su Lin smiled beautifully. "Xiaoxiao was the one who called, right? What did she tell you? I"m so jealous of her… do you know that? The tone of voice you use to talk to her is different from when you talk to anyone else. When we were kids, I always thought that it would be so nice if you could use that tone of voice to talk to me as well."

"Shaojie…" Her gaze was tainted with a little madness as she looked at him and said, "Do you know how much I like you? I like you, I like you so much that… I am willing to do anything for you. This is something that Mu Xiaoxiao cannot do."
