Chapter 485: Chapter 478: Seeking Help
Seeing Bai Yiran come out in loose clothing, looking drowsy, and thinking of her own pitiful daughter, Xia Lian felt a stab in her heart.
"Aunt, whatâs wrong? What happened?"
Since that incident, Bai Yiran hadnât seen Xia Lian. It wasnât that she held any grudge, rather it was Xia Lian who felt too embarrassed to see Bai Yiran.
After all, what Cheng Shishi did was disgraceful, and Xia Lian, as her aunt, had often received Bai Yiranâs care. How could she shamelessly approach Bai Yiran after that incident?
However, the situation was different now. Xia Lianâs heart ached for her daughter; hearing Cheng Shishiâs heart-wrenching cries, Xia Lian couldnât bear it.
Growing up, Cheng Shishi was raised with her familyâs love. Although she was mischievous as a child and got a few beatings, those werenât serious matters. Which kid hasnât been beaten? But the current situation made Xia Lian anxious, she was really worried Cheng Shishi might go mad if she continued to be confined.
"Yiran, Iâm begging you! Aunt begs you, please help Shishi!" Xia Lian grabbed Bai Yiranâs hand suddenly, causing Bai Yiranâs body to sway slightly.
Sister Liu saw this and quickly stood by Bai Yiranâs side, firmly supporting her.
"Aunt, calm down, be careful of Yiranâs belly."
But at this point, Xia Lian couldnât hear Sister Liuâs words, gripping Bai Yiranâs hand tightly, her eyes red, "Yiran, only you can help your sister now!"
"What happened to Shishi? Isnât she staying at home safely?"
Bai Yiran knew that Cheng Shishi was being confined, and she thought it was a good thing. It could sever Cheng Shishiâs ties with Wu Chengzu and allow her to realize her mistakes and reflect calmly.
Whatâs more, she was at home, with no shortage of food or clothing, Cheng Shishi wouldnât have any big problems.
"No, your uncle confiscated Shishiâs phone and computer, doesnât allow her to go out, and watches over her all day." Xia Lian started crying as she spoke, "Shishi cries very miserably in her room every day, Iâm worried that if this continues, she will go crazy!"
Actually, speaking of confinement, Bai Yiran had been confined before. When her grandmother discovered she had secretly married Leng Yichen, her grandmother confined her. She knew how unpleasant that was, but it wouldnât be as serious as going crazy.
Xia Lian saw Bai Yiran silent, and continued to cry and complain, "Your uncle is determined, and wonât release Shishi until she is confined for a month. Your grandmother does nothing, just listens to Shishi cry. Iâm really out of options, so I came to beg you, Yiran!" Xia Lian paused and then continued, "In fact, the reason your uncle is so angry and insists on confining Shishi is all to give you and Yichen an explanation! As long as you speak to him, he will definitely release Shishi!"
Bai Yiran looked at Xia Lian, helped her to the sofa to sit down, and said softly, "Aunt, donât worry, calm down and listen to me. Uncle is Shishiâs father, I am her sister. We all love her, we all care about her."
Xia Lian listened to Bai Yiran, thinking she was about to speak up.
Who would have thought Bai Yiran continued, "But, what Shishi did this time was a bit too much. Uncleâs approach is right, Shishi needs to reflect on this incident. After all, this time the target was me. If next time it were someone else, the result might not be the same."
Xia Lian was stunned, her eyes fixed on Bai Yiran, "Do you mean, youâre unwilling to help? Even though sheâs your sister, youâre unwilling to help?"
