Chapter 373 - Bai Jun Returns Home

After the call with Grandfather Fu, Old lady Bai summoned Bai Fen immediately.

When Bai Fen heard that her mother-in-law sent for her, she immediately went over but she could sense something wrong in the atmosphere.

Seeing the ugly expression on her mother-in-law's face, Bai Fen became nervous as she didn't know what the matter was. She is guilty of doing something wrong, so she was bound to be nervous.

"Mother, you sent for me?" Bai Fen asked as she managed a smile. When she tried to sit on the sofa next to the old lady, the latter glared at her and said, "Did I say you could sit?"

Bai Fen finally understood that the situation was wrong and since the old lady was already venting her anger on her, it was obvious that she could be the reason for her outrage.

Bai Fen remained standing and asked in a polite tone while trying to hide her nervousness, "Mother, you seem to be in a bad mood, is something wrong?"

Old lady Bai glared at her before speaking up, "Do you know who just called me?"

Bai Fen shook her head and waited for the old lady to reply. Deep down, she was almost about to have a heart attack since she could already guess the reason for the Old lady's anger.

"Old general Fu just informed me that Jun got into FJ, is that true?" Old Mrs. Bai asked in a heavy tone.

Bai Fen felt cold sweat on her back as she immediately dropped to the floor. She was so terrified that Grandfather Fu already knew about this matter, doesn't it mean that she was already in a lot of trouble?

"Answer me!" The old lady barked as she got up from the couch in anger she was so angry that her chest began to heave up and down.

Her other daughter-in-laws heard what was happening from the servants and rushed over to come and see.

Bai Fen flinched when the old lady raised her voice. "Mother, I can explain what happened, I..."

Bai Fen was not able to finish her sentence when a heavy slap landed on her face and that was the scene the two women of the Bai family saw when they stepped in.

"Mother, what is going on?" The first daughter-in-law asked with a frown as she came to stand beside the old lady.

"Mother what did Bai Fen do?" The second daughter-in-law asked as she stood on the left side of the old lady.

"Our family is in big trouble because of this woman! She went against my orders and planned with Jun to get into FJ behind my back. I had no clue about it and was just informed by Old Fu." Old lady Bai said in anger.

"What! Bai Fen did what?" The first daughter-in-law asked in absolute shock. She couldn't believe her ears.

"Bai Fen how could you be so stupid? Do you know the gravity of what you and your daughter have done?!" The third daughter-in-law asked in anger. She was so furious that she felt like slapping her hard on the face.

Bai Fen was still on the floor with her hand on her left cheek. Just now, the old lady slapped her hard and she could still feel her ears ringing bells.

She knew that this was not the end for the humiliation she had received and more were to come. She didn't even want to think about what her husband would do to her when he learns of this news.

Because she had confidence that no one in the family would find out about this matter soon, she didn't plan on the effects in case the matter was revealed before she made plans.

"Bai Fen, do you know what you have done? You have put our family in a tight corner. Old Fu gave me from now till tomorrow morning to give him a proper explanation of the reason I didn't listen to his orders, what should I tell him?" Old Mrs. Bai asked with a fierce gaze on her.

Finally, Bai Fen decided to speak up. "Mother, I am sorry for taking this decision without telling you but Jun wanted to work in FJ because of how broad it was. She wanted to work in the best brand in the country, which has always been her dream since she was a child. I couldn't let her suffer because of the misunderstanding. And you can check with FJ that she didn't get in using any underhanded means. For the first time since Jun was born, she worked so hard for something and finally got in through the competition FJ held. Mother, we can't let the Fu Family continue to act this way because of a misunderstanding."

"Bai Fen, have you lost your mind?" The third daughter-in-law asked with a frown.

"Are you saying that mother should relay your meaningless words to the Fu family, so we can die early?" The first daughter-in-law asked.

"Then what do you want me to do?! Don't tell me that you want Jun to leave FJ? She worked so hard for it. Because of this competition, she deprived herself of so many things just so she could get in using her efforts, so she can't leave, her hard work and dedication can't go to waste!" Bai Fen said in a determined tone.

Before Old Mrs. Bai could scold her, Bai Jun walked in. When she saw her mother on the floor and the other women surrounding her, she dumped her dampened mood and immediately rushed to her side.

"Mum, what happened?!" Bai Jun asked with worry as she rushed to her mother's side.

Before Bai Fen could reply, the old lady commanded Bai Jun in an authoritative tone. "Bai Jun get on your knees now!"

"Grandma, what did I do wrong? What did my mother do?!" Bai Jun asked with an angry gaze on her grandmother.

"Are you asking me what you did wrong?" Old lady Bai asked angrily with her fingers pointed at her.

Bai Jun still wanted to argue with her but her mother immediately dragged her to kneel beside her and gave her a sign not to say anything.
