It was close to 8pm when Ming An Ling and Ming WenZhe came home.
The moment they stepped in, they could feel the subtle atmosphere between everyone.
Ning yuan and Ming Ji were surprised that the fourth son suddenly came home but their attention was more on Ming An Ling, beside them was Rongxia smiling ambiguously and Ming Jinhui with a frown
Despite sensing the bizzare situation, Ming An Ling simply greeted them.
Ning yuan got up from the couch, forcing a smile, "How was your first day of school? Are you used to it? "
"Yes it's fine, is anything wrong?" Ming An Ling stared at her quietly.
Ming Ji coughed dryly and did not know what to say "This..."
Ming Jinhui could not stand the situation anymore and decided to speak up and make it to the chase, "Rongxia and I saw you getting into a fight outside with a boy."
Next to him was Rongxia adding fuel to fire, "An Ling, you shouldn't get into a fight outside, even if you are unhappy you should not get violent."
"You two-" Ming WenZhe was about to argue when he was stopped by Ming An Ling.
She stared at the two with dark eyes and they could not help but feel nervous and scared under it.
"First, I did not get into a fight, I was spectating and applauding for it.
Second, I was with a female friend.
Third, he can testify. He knows my friend one of the person who was fighting." Ming An Ling pointed to Ming WenZhe and added "By the way, you do know that slandering someone is illegal right?"
Everyone was speechless by her applause for the fight, Ming WenZhe was even more dumbfounded when she admitted it shamelessly and even dragged him into it.
"Yes, it's like this..." Ming WenZhe explained while side eyeing her, but Ming An Ling simply gave him a smile.
Realising that she had wronged her, Ning yuan looked into her daughter's honest eyes and suddenly felt a little ashamed of the dirty thoughts in her mind.
Next, she chided Ming An Ling to go and rest and that she has warmed a cup of milk for her, as she did not know what to say to Ming WenZhe, she simply told him to rest well. Ming WenZhe rubbed his nose 'Am I not your favourite anymore?'
Then he and Ming An Ling disappeared up the stairs.
Seeing that they are gone,Ning yuan immediately reproached Ming Jinhui "Look at you! All day suspecting bad about your sister, can't you trust her once? Also, even she was getting into a fight, you should be stepping in to help instead of snitching on her!"
They continued to argue while Rongxia slipped away back to her dormitory at the program, Ming Jinhui could not stand it anymore and left abruptly.
Meanwhile
At the corridor outside the rooms, Ming WenZhe sighed "What a snake."
"Huh are you scolding me?" Ming An Ling was alerted.
"No no not you, I'm talking about that Rongxia. Ever since she came, this house has never been at peace, she was the one who caused Ruihao, Yanling and me to move out." He continued "It's a long story..."
