Even the tycoons of wealthy families kneel down; the real heiress is the matriarch.

"Has Bai Su already gotten so close to the boys in her class so quickly?"

As Dong Suying was lost in thought, Ye Xiaofeng looked at her questioningly.

Dong Suying chuckled dryly and said, "It's not what you think..."

"What do you mean by that? I know she's your own daughter, but you can't spoil her too much! Children from the countryside are naturally less well-behaved than city girls. If you keep indulging her like this, she'll go astray sooner or later!"

"It's not what you think. The boy came to us because of something else."

"Then tell me, what is it?"

Ye Xiaofeng gave the butler a look, signaling him to stall the other party first.

He needed to figure out why the other party had suddenly come to his door before deciding whether to let the boy in.

Dong Suying carefully considered her words before speaking: "Actually, she's gotten into some trouble at school these past few days... I didn't want to tell you since you're busy."

She recounted in detail what Chen Qiang had told her.

Ye Xiaofeng's expression changed repeatedly.

"So, she wasn't sick at all?"

"Yes……"

"Bang!" Ye Xiaofeng slammed his hand on the table.

"She's confused, and you're confused too! You kept such a big thing from me! Now that they've come knocking on our door, you're only telling me!"

Compared to when he suspected Bai Su of having a puppy love, Ye Xiaofeng's anger was now even greater.

"This is your good daughter! You should think carefully about how you're going to raise her properly!"

He was, after all, a stepfather, and there were some things he couldn't say out loud, so he wanted to give Dong Suying a warning.

"Our Ye Group has come a long way; don't let her ruin our family!"

Dong Suying nodded and said, "Actually, I've already thought it through. In order to allow her to reflect on her actions properly, and also to ensure that Xue'er is not affected, I want her to move out temporarily."

Ye Xiaofeng was silent for a moment, then said, "If we move out, won't she become even more lawless?"

"At least she'll understand that we won't spoil her forever. If she doesn't eat well, dress well, or live well outside, and suffers a little, maybe she'll come to her senses."

Ye Xiaofeng sighed.

"That's true. She wasn't like this the day she first came back. It was only because she was living such a good life that she suddenly got carried away."

"So...you agree?"

"Why should I agree or disagree? You are her biological mother, and the decision is yours."

Dong Suying understood; her husband meant he had agreed.

However, as a stepfather, he felt awkward asking his stepdaughter to move out.

"Then it's settled."

"Hmm..." Ye Xiaofeng pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "Let's resolve this matter first. Have her come down and apologize to the other party in person. I think the other party took the initiative to come to us because they want an apology."

"Okay, I'll go get her."

Dong Suying quickly went upstairs and knocked on Bai Su's door.

Bai Su opened the door, revealing two distinct patches of blue.

She still didn't sleep well last night because of the bed.

She had already placed books on the bed legs, but only after that did she realize that the problem wasn't with the bed legs at all; the problem was with the bed itself.

So she stayed up late again to study computer technology and also took some time to get a general understanding of the scope of her three years of high school studies.

Because the textbooks were almost completely different, she had to learn many things from scratch.

Fortunately, there is still more than a month until the college entrance examination, and she can keep up at her pace.

However, as soon as Dong Suying saw Bai Su's state, she concluded that Bai Su had been playing computer games all night again.

"Didn't I tell you not to get addicted to computer games? You really ignored me!"

Bai Su said with a laugh, "Have you forgotten? You smashed my computer."

"..." Dong Suying then remembered that she had indeed smashed Bai Su's computer last night.

"Then why are you still looking like you're half-dead?"

"I told you, this bed is broken, it keeps making noise, and I can't sleep well."

"How good can a bed in the countryside be? Don't be so pampered!"

"Try lying down yourself if you don't believe me."

That bed looked like it could fall apart at any moment.

Dong Suying didn't want to listen or care at all.

In her opinion, Bai Su is thick-skinned and tough, and her current complaints about the bed are just being pretentious; she wants a princess room as big as Xue'er's.

How can Bai Su and Xue'er be compared?

Xue'er brought her only glory, while Bai Su caused endless trouble.

She was eager to get rid of this trouble.

"I don't have time to talk to you about this right now. Come downstairs with me right away, your classmate is here. Also, after he leaves, your father and I have something to say to you."

Bai Su raised an eyebrow: "What classmate?"

"You really have the nerve to ask? It must be that student you caused to end up in the hospital."

Cheng Yizhou?

What is he doing here?

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and come downstairs with me!" Dong Suying urged in a deep voice.

Bai Su's eyes flickered slightly as she followed Dong Suying downstairs.

After the two went downstairs, the butler finally invited Cheng Yizhou into the Ye family home.

Ye Xiaofeng, as the male head of the household, spoke first: "Young man, you're here to see Bai Su, right? I'm her father, Ye Xiaofeng."

Hello, Uncle.

Cheng Yizhou nodded and was about to instruct Lao Xu to bring the gifts from the car when he heard Ye Xiaofeng say, "This incident is our fault. We didn't educate Bai Su well, which is why you ended up in the hospital."

Cheng Yizhou's face was grim.

"Uncle, you've misunderstood. This matter has nothing to do with Bai Su..."

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly noticed Bai Su shaking her head at him.

Cheng Yizhou was puzzled. What did Bai Su mean by that?

Doesn't she need his help to explain?

While he was still in a daze, Ye Xiaofeng spoke up: "Bai Su, hurry up and apologize to your classmate!"

Dong Suying urged, "Don't just stand there! Apologize now!"

Cheng Yizhou instinctively said, "No, she doesn't need to give it to me..."

However, the next second, he saw Bai Su walk up to him.

"Cheng Yizhou, I'm so sorry I accidentally caused you to end up in the hospital! Please forgive me."

Cheng Yizhou was completely stunned.

Has Ye Baisu gone mad?

But when he looked up and looked closely, he clearly saw a fleeting hint of mockery in Bai Su's eyes.

She did it on purpose.

But why do we do this?

What benefit would she gain from letting the Ye family continue to misunderstand her?

But then Bai Su winked at him quickly, clearly signaling him to cooperate.

Damn!

She didn't even tell him the plan, and just asked him to act. Wasn't she afraid that he wouldn't cooperate?

He cursed a few times in his mind, but what he said was, "I came here today to hear you apologize. Since you're so sensible, then forget it!"

"That's right. There's no misunderstanding between classmates that can't be resolved. I don't think Bai Su did it on purpose. It's fate that you two are classmates. After the college entrance exam, you might not even see each other again."

Dong Suying tried to mediate, but her smile was forced; it was clearly just a show to get Cheng Yizhou to leave quickly.

She didn't genuinely care about what her daughter was doing at school.

Cheng Yizhou felt sorry for Bai Su.

But think about yourself, isn't he the same?

We're all in the same boat, so let's listen to Monkey and take better care of her from now on!

He was still counting on her to continue helping him with his exam papers.

"Okay, Auntie, I'll let it go this time, but there won't be a next time."

"certainly……"

"Of course..." the couple said in unison, their faces looking rather grim.

Apologizing to a young boy is incredibly embarrassing if word gets out.

"In that case, I'll be going now."

Cheng Yizhou had no idea what Bai Su was up to, and fearing he might accidentally give himself away, he was about to leave as he spoke.

Bai Su called out to him.

"Cheng, wait for me, I'll take you there."

"Oh……"

The two went out one after the other.

Once they were outside the residential compound, Bai Su finally spoke, "Did you come by car?"

"How did you know about the family car...?"

"Your hair is perfectly styled."

"...What are you trying to say? And why did you make me act out that scene?"

"I won't talk to you now. Go to the car and wait for me. I'll be out in half an hour at most."

After saying that, she turned around and went back into the residential area.

"Hey!" Cheng Yizhou chased after him, "Can't you just say things clearly? How long are you going to keep playing these riddles?"

"Wait for me for half an hour! After half an hour, I'll tell you whatever you want to know."

Bai Su waved her hand, her steps never faltering.

I was slightly out of breath when I got to my doorstep because I ran so fast.

She took a moment to catch her breath before stepping inside.

Inside the room, Ye Xiaofeng sat expressionlessly on the sofa, while Dong Suying sat beside him, her face undisguisedly dark.

"Come here," Dong Suying said first. "Your father and I have something to say to you."

Bai Su took a step and walked over.

Dong Suying stared at Bai Su's face, a face that still looked completely unfamiliar to her even today.

It's strange. She doesn't consider herself a cold-hearted person, but she really can't feel any maternal love for Bai Su.

At first, she wanted to nurture their relationship, especially after Bai Su made a stunning appearance at her birthday party.

But now, all she wants is to get rid of this troublemaker as soon as possible.

Dong Suying tossed an access card and a key onto the coffee table.

Bai Su glanced at the two items on the coffee table, her expression unchanged, as if she had expected it.

She had indeed anticipated this.

When Dong Suying called her downstairs, she said, "Your father and I still have something to say to you."

Dong Suying herself probably didn't realize how guilty she looked when she said those words.

Fortunately, she had already prepared a backup plan for herself.

"Mom, are you telling me to move out?" she asked, following Dong Suying's gesture.

"That's right!"

Dong Suying didn't want to pretend to be a good mother anymore. She got straight to the point: "You've caused far too much trouble lately. Your father and I want you to learn your lesson. For now, you should move out. We'll call you back when you behave better."

After she finished speaking, she looked at her husband, wanting him to say a few words as well.

She didn't want to be the villain alone.

Unexpectedly, Ye Xiaofeng, out of consideration for his pride, actually said, "If you admit your mistake now, apologize to your mother properly, and promise never to cause trouble again, then this matter will be over."

Dong Suying was stunned.

Bai Su was also taken aback.

She was already about to pick up the keys...
