The Goddess is Sweet and Aloof
Chapter 834 - Chapter 834 Chapter 833 Yin Family 1

Chapter 834: Chapter 833 Yin Family 1 Chapter 834: Chapter 833 Yin Family 1 Yin Xiaobai, though always having plenty of friends around her, knew that now was not the time to call them. Slumped on the sofa, her eyes, lifeless, shimmered with a dim light.

It was unclear when soft footsteps and voices had started from outside the door, probably they had returned. Yin Xiaobai shifted slightly but did not get up.

Jia Rong was wearing a purple long dress; though she was over forty, she looked as if she were in her twenties or thirties, her hair perfectly curled with a mature touch.

When Jia Rong had married into the Jia Family with her daughter, she was only in her twenties. Probably not expecting Yin Xiaobai to be home, her gentle smile faltered briefly before she forced it back, “So Xiaobai has come home, why didn’t you tell your father? He has always cared about you.”

Yin Xiaobai couldn’t even bother to look her way, cared about her? What a joke.

As soon as Yin Li entered, his brows furrowed, “When did you get back? Why didn’t you call?”

His tone was strict, devoid of any concern.

Yin Xiaobai sneered coldly, “Whenever I come back, you never care, so why ask now? Wasn’t it you who went abroad with them without a word or even a phone call? Why the pretense in front of me now?”

“What kind of talk is that?” Yin Li’s face fell as he saw how cold Yin Xiaobai was.

Though he had never liked his daughter, he still needed some dignity as a father.

“Of course, it’s human talk.”

He never understood this father of hers. Yin Ping was just a burden Jia Rong brought along, yet Yin Li adored her as if she were his own flesh and blood.

A tough job for him, playing the stepfather.

Yin Ping, trailing behind her mother, was surprised to see her sister and a sweet smile spread across her face, “Sister, you’ve finally come back. I’ve really missed you.”

Unable to stand their family of three’s act, Yin Xiaobai grew impatient and thought about heading upstairs but was stopped by Jia Rong, “Xiaobai, you just got back, why the temper? Auntie will cook for you, what would you like to eat? I’ll have the servant go buy it.”

Yin Xiaobai shook off her stepmother’s hand, barely holding back from exposing her stepmother’s hypocrisy, “Servant? Didn’t you give all the servants a holiday? If I had come back a month earlier, would you even have let me in the house?”

Jia Rong’s face stiffened, clearly embarrassed.

When she decided to go abroad a month ago, she had indeed purposely not told Yin Xiaobai, not only to let her know that Yin Ping was the daughter Yin Li adored, even though she wasn’t his biologically.

“Sister, Mom didn’t do it on purpose,” Yin Ping mumbled, “Mom was just afraid if she told you, you’d be heartbroken, you’ve always disliked me and Mom, she was scared you’d be upset.”

“If she feared upsetting me, why go on the trip with my dad at all?”

Yin Xiaobai couldn’t help but scoff. Yin Ping suddenly fell silent, tears shimmering in her eyes, “Sister, I’m sorry.”

Seeing his wife enduring in front of Yin Xiaobai made Yin Li even more uncomfortable; his dissatisfaction towards Yin Xiaobai deepened. After so many years of such behavior, she was still as willful and irritable as ever.

Jia Rong had endured her daughter for so many years, worrying about everything even when they went abroad; she never had a day of peace following him.

“It was me who didn’t tell your aunt to inform you; if you need to blame someone, blame me.”

Seeing Yin Li’s indifferent expression, Yin Xiaobai just kept a cold face, “Keep your happy family of three to yourself, I’m not interested in seeing it.”
