Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“It’s Dad and Mom’s idea. It’s my first performance, the entire family has to come.” Yin Ning didn’t care if Yin Tao could come. Compared to her presence, Feng Jing and Lin Jia were obviously more important. After all, their social status was much higher than Yin Tao’s. It was a good thing that they could come and support her.

“Alright, I’ll accept it.” Yin Tao was unwilling to have conflicts with her family over such trivial matters. Besides, she had just promised Yin Hao to try her best to get along well with Yin Ning.

“But you can give Brother Feng and Brother Lin Jia their invitation cards yourself. I don’t have the time.”

Yin Ning was very surprised that Yin Tao would reject her outright. If Xi Feng hadn’t said that Lin Jia and Feng Jing were too busy with work and didn’t have time to come, she wouldn’t have had to beg Yin Tao.

“Stop lying. Who doesn’t know that Brother Lin Jia treats you differently? You won’t even do me such a small favor, what kind of an elder sister are you.’

Yin Tao felt that Yin Ning was being unreasonable. When she was reading the novel, she had a good impression of this beautiful female protagonist. However, after interacting with her, Yin Tao finally understood the kind of person she was. She didn’t want to have anything to do with her.

“Ask Elder Brother to go, he’ll definitely help you.” Yin Tao had no intention of keeping Yin Ning any longer. She stepped forward and opened the bedroom door, gesturing for her to leave.

Yin Ning snorted coldly and took the two tickets from the table. Yin Tao immediately locked her room door after she had finally left. It seemed that it was better not to go home so frequently in the future.

After a night, Yin Tao had already tidied up her room. Looking at the dazzling array of cosmetics on the dressing table, Yin Tao applied some simple makeup.

Yin Dong and Yin Hao were delighted as it was rare for the entire family to have breakfast together, but Zhao Yue and Yin Ning were obviously unwilling to see Yin Tao.

“I wonder why you came home. I feel jinxed to see you so early in the morning.” Zhao Yue looked at Yin Tao across the table and felt very displeased.

When Yin Ning came out of Yin Tao’s bedroom last night, she happened to meet Zhao Yue. Her initial anger instantly turned into grievances. Yin Ning made Yin Tao’s rejection sound like an insult. Zhao Yue had wanted to confront Yin Tao, but Yin Ning stopped her. She said that she wasn’t offended and she thought that Yin Tao might be under pressure from work.

On one hand, Zhao Yue felt that her youngest daughter was obedient and sensible. On the other hand, she felt that Yin Tao’s work had a huge impact on her personality. How could her personality improve when she dealt with the dead every day?

Yin Tao was scolded by Zhao Yue for no rhyme or reason. Just as she was feeling puzzled, she heard Yin Dong’s voice from the side. “What’s wrong now?

It’s not easy for the child to come back. Can’t you just be nice?”

When Zhao Yue heard Yin Dong’s reprimand, the anger and dissatisfaction in her heart intensified. She threw the chopsticks in her hand on the table and said sternly, “So what if I say a few words? When I think about how her hands have touched a dead person, I feel disgusted! ”

Zhao Yue was a little agitated. When Yin Ning heard her mother’s words, she covered her mouth and nose in disgust and avoided Yin Tao’s gaze.

Yin Hao was just about to defend Yin Tao when he saw her slowly put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands. She stood up and took her backpack. “Dad, Mom, I’m going back. There are many things to do at the police station, and I’m done eating.”

Yin Tao didn’t look at the others at the dining table and walked straight out of the door with her bag.

Zhao Yue felt a little awkward when she saw Yin Tao leave without arguing with her. She looked at Yin Dong’s gloomy expression and left the dining table. Just as she was about to turn around and go upstairs, she was stopped by Yin Dong’s loud rebuke. “Why? Do you still feel disgusted after chasing the child away? Who else do you think is disgusting? We’ll leave so you can eat alone!”

Seeing that her husband was angry at her, Zhao Yue’s eyes turned red and her body trembled. When Yin Ning saw her mother’s expression, she hurriedly consoled her. “Dad, Mom is also feeling aggrieved. Sister hasn’t said a word to Mom since she came back. Mom is just concerned about her.”

As Yin Ning spoke, her tears flowed uncontrollably.

When Yin Dong saw that his wife and daughter were crying, the anger in his heart dissipated by more than half. Yin Hao looked at the sobbing Zhao Yue and Yin Ning, and then at Yin Tao, who had walked out of the door. He sighed helplessly and stood up to say to his father, “Dad, I’ll send Xiaotao back.”

Yin Dong gestured for Yin Hao to go. When he saw that a cozy family meal had come to this, he was furious but there was nothing much he could do.

Yin Hao chased after Yin Tao and finally caught up with her at the entrance of the villa. Yin Tao had her head lowered..
