Chapter 277 Misunderstanding

"Mom, good morning."

Lan Xi keenly sensed the fluster in her daughter's expression. Her heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition arose.

Could it be...?

Hiss!!!

She turned her head to look at her husband, who was still sound asleep in the bedroom, and quietly closed the door.

This matter absolutely couldn't be known by her husband; otherwise, something terrible would happen.

If it were any other time, Lan Xi might not have deliberately concealed it, but now was a critical period. If her husband knew that their daughter was in Ye Fan's room...

That kind of image was unimaginable!

Lan Xi quickly walked to the girl, unlocked the door with her left hand, and pulled her daughter into the bedroom.

In the bedroom.

Lan Xi sat on the edge of the bed, arms crossed.

Ning Xi, on the other hand, stood to the side with a guilty conscience, her head lowered in silence.

Seeing this, Lan Xi's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she said sternly, "Xiao Xi, how did Mom teach you? A girl needs to be reserved; I've told you this many times. But look at what you've done?!"

"Mom~"

Ning Xi's face fell, and she softly admitted her mistake, "I really know I was wrong. Can you not tell Dad about this? If Dad finds out, he'll definitely make trouble for Ye Fan. This has nothing to do with Ye Fan."

Lan Xi had only intended to probe her daughter, but her daughter's words had already revealed everything. Her guess was correct; this girl had slept in Ye Fan's room last night. Her heart sank, and she said with disappointment, "Even at this point, you're still defending Ye Fan? It takes two to tango in this kind of situation!"

"I've never seen you protect him like this before?"

"I..."

"Hmph!"

Lan Xi's face was stern, and she said, "Also, how is this not related to Ye Fan? Xiao Xi, you're a girl. To have that kind of relationship at this age is very bad for your health. Mom isn't a prude, but this kind of thing can totally wait until you and Ye Fan are married, or at least, after you've confirmed your relationship."

"Now... sigh, you're really a handful!"

Hearing this, Ning Xi immediately sensed something was wrong. Her clear eyes widened.

What was all this?

She had slept in Ye Fan's room, but nothing had happened!

But the implication in her mother's words...

It was a huge misunderstanding!

Ning Xi sat down beside her mother with a bitter expression, saying, "Mom, can you listen to my explanation?"

"Explain what?"

Lan Xi tapped her daughter's forehead in annoyance and stood up, "I'm going back to my room to get you some medicine. Remember, this kind of thing must never happen again, at least not until you and Ye Fan are engaged. Absolutely not!"

"Mom!"

Ning Xi was about to cry, not out of frustration, but out of embarrassment.

She and Ye Fan really hadn't done anything, and she wasn't that kind of casual girl. Although it was true that she had feelings for Ye Fan, that kind of intimate thing was absolutely impossible at this time.

"What?"

Lan Xi, who had started to walk away, stopped and looked at her daughter's anxious expression. She felt something was amiss and changed her tone, "Xiao Xi, what do you want to say?"

"Mom, it's... not what you think."

Ning Xi took a deep breath, her slightly flushed face exceptionally serious, "I slept in Ye Fan's room last night. The reason this happened was entirely an accident."

"What kind of accident?"

"I couldn't sleep at all last night, so I thought I'd chat with Ye Fan. But I didn't expect to fall asleep at some point while we were chatting. However, I can assure you, nothing happened between me and Ye Fan!"

"Is that so?"

Lan Xi's eyes narrowed, and for the first time, she doubted her daughter's words.

There was only one bed in Ye Fan's room; they must have slept together. With her daughter dressed like this, no boy of seventeen or eighteen could possibly resist!

Lan Xi had a very clear understanding of her daughter's appearance and charm.

Ning Xi got up and hugged her mother, urgently saying, "Mom, it's really like that. Last night, Ye Fan lay on the computer chair all night. He respects me very much."

A flash of surprise appeared in Lan Xi's eyes. Without another word, she grabbed Ning Xi's hand and headed towards the bathroom, "Words are cheap; let Mom check."

Ning Xi: "..."

After a brief moment of shock, she quickly broke free from her mother's hand, embarrassed, "Mom! I'm not a child anymore. How can you do that kind of thing? Can't there be a little more trust between people?"

Lan Xi rubbed her forehead helplessly and sighed, "Xiao Xi, Mom will be honest with you. I really hope you and Ye Fan will be together. Ye Fan is a very outstanding boy, and Mom can see that you two like each other."

"But in the end, you are Mom's only daughter. Mom worries about you. Once that kind of thing happens, the boy is fine, but the girl is the one who gets hurt. Until your feelings have reached a certain level, you must not cross the line!"

"It really didn't happen..."

Ning Xi was so anxious that tears started to fall. She said aggrievedly, "Ye Fan and I really didn't do anything. Why... why can't you believe me?"

Seeing her daughter cry, Lan Xi panicked. She frantically wiped the tears from her daughter's face and comforted her softly, "Don't cry, don't cry. You're already a big girl, and you're still crying?"

"It's because you don't believe your daughter. Ye Fan and I are truly... innocent..."

Ning Xi's tears fell, and she rubbed her hands on her nightgown. Her pitiful appearance was heartbreaking.

Lan Xi quickly said, "Mom believes you. Don't cry. You have to go to the exam venue soon; how can you go in this state? Mom apologizes to you, okay?"

"No need!"

Ning Xi stubbornly refused, "It's true that I did something wrong in this matter. I'll learn from it. Mom, you've raised your daughter for so long; you should know your daughter's personality. It's impossible for me and Ye Fan to have... that kind of thing."

Lan Xi nodded slightly.

Thinking about it calmly, it was indeed the case.

Her daughter was so shy that she would blush even holding hands with Ye Fan; it was indeed impossible for her to do such a thing that crossed the line.

She had been too impulsive earlier and hadn't thought things through...

Lan Xi wiped the tears from her daughter's face and said, "Xiao Xi, this is Mom's fault. Mom jumped to conclusions without understanding the situation. I'm sorry, let's not cry anymore."

"...Okay."

Ning Xi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Mom, it's almost seven o'clock. I... need to change clothes. Can you please go out for a bit?"

"You've really grown up!"

Lan Xi's expression carried a hint of melancholy.

When her daughter was little, she was the one who took care of her bathing and dressing. Now, her daughter was asking her to leave just to change clothes...

......

Ye Fan was unaware of this matter.

If he knew that Ning Xi had cried because of this, he would definitely be very heartbroken.

In the bedroom, it was exceptionally quiet.

A knock on the door sounded. Ye Fan, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes, got up, and opened the door. Standing outside was none other than Ning Xi.

"Brother, it's time to eat breakfast."
