After struggling to pay attention and stay awake in her classes, Yu Rou managed to endure until lunchtime.

"Sister Rou, did something happen to you? I noticed that you were dozing off during class. This is unprecedented…" Xia Jingyi asked her after they sat down for lunch.

"It's a long story…" Yu Rou sighed.

"If you don't want to say it…"

"No, I'll tell you, since you're somewhat related now." Yu Rou said, and she proceeded to explain to them what had happened yesterday and how her mother forbade her from seeing Yuan.

Cough! Cough!

"What?!" Xia Jingyi almost choked on her drink after listening to Yu Rou, and she slammed the desk in anger.

"How can she do that to you and your brother— her own children?! I have never seen such despicable people before! Ah… I'm sorry for yelling at your parents, Sister Rou, but I just can't remain calm after hearing what they did…" Xia Jingyi said.

"Don't worry about it, Xia Jingyi. I also feel that what my parents did is unforgivable! However, there's nothing I can do, and it's not like I could just leave the family. If I was even half as talented as Brother Tian, perhaps I would have some saying in the family, but alas, that's not the case." Yu Rou sighed.

While it's true that Yuan could support both of them if he begins real-world trading, there are things in this world that cannot be solved even with money. Furthermore, she doesn't intend on letting Yuan take care of her forever. If anything, it should be the other way around— she should be taking care of him! However, she can't do that if she leaves the family, and the biggest problem is that she's still a minor, whilst Yuan is considered an adult.

"What are you going to do now, Sister Rou?" Xia Jingyi asked her a moment later.
