CHAPTER 78: CHAPTER 72: I’M SORRY

"Son! Bai Qiantong!" Gu Manli shouted angrily at Bai Qiantong, "Come back!"

Gu Manli never expected Bai Qiantong to use such a tone and attitude with her; it felt less like he was treating his mother, and more like an enemy! Gu Manli knew that Bai Qiantong had always treated his sister Bai Yiran well. Whenever there were conflicts between Bai Yiran and Bai Qianyu in the past, Bai Qiantong would often protect Bai Yiran a bit more. However, due to Bai Yiran’s relationship with the family, the two of them didn’t see each other often.

Gu Manli could never have imagined that Bai Qiantong would treat her this way today because of Bai Yiran!

This was the son she had raised in the palm of her hand!

To think he would talk to her like this for the daughter of that woman Cheng Ting!

In an instant, Gu Manli felt extremely wronged, but more than anything, she hated Bai Yiran!

Years ago, Gu Manli had already secretly loved Bai Hongguang. If it hadn’t been for Cheng Ting suddenly marrying Bai Hongguang instead, Gu Manli wouldn’t have been reduced to being the third wheel for so many years!

Unexpectedly, the husband that Cheng Ting had taken from her all those years ago, her beloved son was now treating her this way to protect Bai Yiran!

Bai Yiran!

For so many years, Gu Manli had channeled her hatred for Cheng Ting onto Bai Yiran, so the first thing she did when she married into the Bai Family was to drive Bai Yiran away. After today’s incident, Gu Manli’s hatred for Bai Yiran only increased!

Bai Hongguang wasn’t thinking that far ahead; his main concern now was Mr. Kang!

"Oh... oh... it hurts so much... it’s murder..." Mr. Kang was still rolling on the ground.

Bai Hongguang stepped forward to assist Mr. Kang cautiously, "Mr. Kang... are you alright... do you need to go to the hospital?"

Mr. Kang waved his hand and hit Bai Hongguang on the face, "I don’t need any help!"

Bai Hongguang staggered but quickly plastered a smile on his face, supporting Mr. Kang, "Let me help you..."

"Get lost!" Mr. Kang grabbed his clothes and yelled furiously at Bai Hongguang!

On the other side, Bai Qiantong carried Bai Yiran straight to the hospital. The amount of medication Bai Yiran had taken wasn’t very large, and the harm to her body was minimal. The wound on her arm was quite deep and required five stitches. The areas where she was hit with a belt were mostly on her legs and buttocks. Since she was wearing thick pants, there was only bruising and swelling without breaking the skin.

Bai Qiantong sat on a chair looking at Bai Yiran, who lay sleeping on the hospital bed. Her alluring face was filled with sorrow as his slender fingers brushed away the hair covering Bai Yiran’s face.

"I’m sorry"

Bai Qiantong’s beautiful eyes filled with a misty haze, and tears slipped down the corners of his eyes, "I’m sorry..."

It was certain that today’s incident couldn’t be separated from his mother. Bai Qiantong had always known that his mother and his sister Bai Qianyu disliked the daughter left behind by his father’s former wife, so they drove Bai Yiran out of the Bai Family. Bai Qianyu had always competed with Bai Yiran for everything since childhood, and Bai Yiran could be said to have suffered terribly in front of the two of them.

But Bai Qiantong never thought Gu Manli would go as far as this!

She was trying to kill Bai Yiran!

"I’m sorry..." Bai Qiantong lay on Bai Yiran’s hand, tears streaming down.

When Bai Yiran woke up, it was already dawn. She tried to move her hand but realized something was pressing on it; it turned out to be Bai Qiantong.

Bai Yiran’s movement woke up Bai Qiantong, "You’re awake? Is there any place on your body that’s uncomfortable? You must tell me!"

"No, I’m fine..." Bai Yiran shook her head, raising her hand slightly painfully, "It’s just my hand that’s gone numb..."
