Chapter 488: Darkness (5)
Under Sun Xiaofen's icy gaze, Bai Mo flinched and turned her face away guiltily.

Bai Hexuan knelt opposite to Bai Mo, and when he heard Bai Mo's words, he gave Bai Mo an angry look, and looked at Tang Shishi with gratitude and guilt.

"Girl Shishi, boy Rui, you are here!" Mr. Bai is also in a very bad condition today, but it is much better than the day Mrs. Bai passed away.

"Grandpa Bai, my condolences!" Ling Rui said lightly, his voice not as indifferent as before.

Old Master Bai nodded, looking at Ling Rui with complicated eyes, as if he had a lot of words on his tongue, but because there were so many people around him, he had to press them back.

Ling Rui nodded slightly towards Mr. Bai, and then he and Tang Shishi offered incense to Mrs. Bai, and finally the funeral attendants took her to the tea room.

The team attending the funeral was mighty, Tang Shishi inadvertently saw Bai Mo mingling with those women who love to gossip, as proud as a peacock, and those women spoke ill of her behind their backs and were full of enthusiasm for her. The hostile women flattered and flattered Bai Mo one by one, and the corners of Tang Shishi's mouth curled up in a mocking arc to Bai Mo.

"Those women are members of the Bai family. They came from City A. They are usually very close to Bai Mo." Bai Hexuan appeared beside Tang Shishi at some point, looked at those women, and said with disdain.

Tang Shishi glanced at Bai Hexuan in surprise, and sighed in her heart, she didn't see how close those women were to Bai Mo, it was just a matter of face, and what they flattered was Bai Mo's identity as the eldest lady of the Bai family What matters is that Bai Mo is deeply loved by the Bai family. If one day, Bai Mo is not favored, then these people must have another face.

At this moment, Bai Mo was surrounded by several girls from the side branches of the Bai family. Listening to the flattering words from their mouths, Bai Mo's depressed mood these days finally improved, and her face eased.

In the past few days, because of Mrs. Bai's death, Bai Mo's status in the Bai family has plummeted. Others can't see it, but Bai Mo feels it sensitively. Words such as "no" and "no" were opened and shut, causing Bai Mo's resentment to rise sharply, especially Bai Hexuan, who has always been ignored by the Bai family, has frequently appeared in the public's sight these days, and everything comes out. He won a lot of favor from the Bai family and stole a lot of favors that belonged to Bai Mo, which made Bai Mo's teeth itch with hatred.

Just when Bai Mo finally regained a bit of the glory that belonged to the eldest lady of the Bai family, a discordant voice sounded in her ear: "Sister Bai, hello, I'm Xu Manlin, I have something to tell you. "

"Xu Manlin? That Xu Manlin? I don't know you!" Bai Mo sized up the woman in front of her contemptuously. Her eyes looked like X-rays and scanned Xu Manlin's outfit. The disdain in her eyes deepened. The clothes this woman wore From inside to outside, including bags and accessories, they are not worth as much as a pair of her underwear. She doesn't know such a poor woman.

"You probably want to come here to admire the beauty of Miss Bai's family?" A woman next to Bai Mo joked, her eyes did not hide her mockery at all.

"Such a broken household is not worthy of carrying Miss Bai's shoes!" Another woman said bitterly.

People around burst into laughter.

Bai Hexuan looked at the group of people who wanted to make fun of regardless of the occasion, clenched his fists angrily, and said angrily: "These people don't know what to say!"

Ling Rui glanced at Bai Hexuan, but said nothing.

On the contrary, Bai Hexuan realized the judgment and scrutiny in Ling Rui's eyes, and his face turned red.

A few days ago, grandpa told his parents to let him walk more with the Jun family and build a good relationship with Tang Shishi. Although he felt a little awkward about this purposeful approach, he still nodded obediently. Although grandfather and father are not as far-sighted as they are, they also know that the situation facing the Bai family is very serious at this time. As a member of the Bai family, he is not qualified to act willfully.

Fortunately, he already had a good impression of Tang Shishi, and he also had a common topic, and he intended to have a deep friendship, but if he was asked to build a good relationship with the Jun family and Tang Shishi, he really didn't know what to do, he only knew that he was very good. Willing to chat with Tang Shishi.

"Things of a feather flock together and people are divided into groups. This is beyond our control." Tang Shishi looked at the angry Bai Hexuan and said.

"En." Under Ling Rui's sharp gaze, Bai Hexuan was very uncomfortable. Fortunately, Tang Shishi came to his rescue. He looked at Tang Shishi gratefully and nodded in response.

"I'm Dr. Bai Xiaolan's daughter." Xu Manlin said as she bit her lip and looked at Bai Mo, her face turned red from being ridiculed by those women.

The smile on the corner of Bai Mo's mouth suddenly turned cold. She looked at Xu Manlin, and vaguely remembered that Bai Xiaolan did have such a daughter, and that she saved her life in the bar that day, and saved her from being raped by a few hooligans. insult.

"What do you want from me?" Bai Mo asked, looking at Xu Manlin with eyes like ice swords.

Seeing that Bai Mo seemed to have finally remembered herself, Xu Manlin became excited, and looked at Bai Mo with hopeful eyes, but when she saw Bai Mo's cold gaze like a sword, she was at a loss again, She faintly felt some uneasiness in her heart, maybe she shouldn't appear in front of Bai Mo so recklessly, maybe she made a mistake in coming this time, but if she didn't come, she would never be reconciled in her life!
"Can I have a few words with you alone?" Xu Manlin flinched, with a look of hesitation flashing across her face, but she soon mustered up her courage again, and asked Bai Mo in a low voice, with a look of begging in her eyes.

"Joke! Who do you think you are? Do you want the eldest lady of the Bai family to talk to you alone?" The woman next to Bai Mo looked at Xu Manlin dissatisfied, and accused her.

"I—" Xu Manlin looked at Bai Mo stubbornly and stubbornly with tears in her eyes.

"Go over there." Bai Mo cast a displeased glance at the woman who accused Xu Manlin, and casually pointed to the place where there were few people.

The woman who flattered and slapped the horse's shoe was heartbroken by Bai Mo's gaze. She lowered her head slightly, bit her lips tightly, and a stream of light flashed in her eyes.

When Xu Manlin heard Bai Mo's agreement, she happily followed Bai Mo to the place where there were few people. She looked like a servant beside Bai Mo.

Xu Manlin also came to Bai Mo when she had no other choice. Ever since Bai Mo rescued her in the bar last time, she had been secretly paying attention to Bai Mo. Once, she overheard her mother talking on the phone, and heard her say that Bai Mo It was her elder sister. She was completely stunned. Later, under her own repeated questioning and threats, her mother saw that she couldn't hide it after all, so she told her about Bai Mo and repeatedly asked her to swear not to tell her about it. To tell the truth about this matter, and even her father couldn't tell it, she swore a poisonous oath.
