Xie Ming sat in front of the vanity table and was prepared to remove her towel when suddenly she heard noises from outside.
She and Song Xiner looked at each other in confusion and went to look outside.
Xie Ming was still having a towel wrapped around her wet hair which has exposed her smooth jade white neckline.
The comfy white dress that she was wearing was of half arm sleeves and she was looking more tempting and beautiful in this loose white dress making her look youthful.
When she opened the door of her room, she found Yuan Lei's assistant Bai Yang outside in the corridor with her bags thrown in the hallway.
Yuan Lei's room was on the same floor as Xie Ming's. Yuan Lei's room was next to her room.
Xie Ming and Song Xiner was surprised to see Bai Yang in the hallway with her luggage thrown outside.
She was sobbing as she pitifully picked up her luggage.
Xie Ming and Song Xiner hurriedly ran towards her and helped her get up.
Xie Ming felt bad for this little girl because she was young and very hardworking.
It was her bad luck that she encountered such a monstrous person.
Xie Ming helped her getting up while Song Xiner helped her tidy up her luggage off the floor.
Xie Ming patted her back and tried to calm her down, " Shh. Don't cry."
But when she removed Bai Yang's hand from her face, she found a red-colored handprint on her face.
The handprint was not light. It was clear that she has been slapped hard which caused the side of her lip bleeding.
Seeing her condition, Xie Ming's expression darkened.
She has experienced this kind of attitude in her last life and that made her sensitive towards these kinds of people.
Before she could say anything, Song Xiner also noticed the handprint on her face and s e hurriedly stood up and held Xie Ming's hand, " Let's go to our room first."
Xie Ming looked at Song Xiner with gloomy expression but in the end, she gave up in front of Song Xiner and went to their room.
There Xie Ming carefully make Bai Yang sat on the chair who was trembling slightly.
Xie Ming felt pity for this girl and took her hand in her hand to calm her down, " Ahh."
But she realized that her hands were sticky and were red. It seems like they have been burned.
Xie Ming's expression became glum as she clenched her hands tightly as she asks Bai Yang in a stern voice, " What happened to you? Why your hands are burned and have a handprint on your face?"
" Who did this to you? Is it Yuan Lei? Did she slapped you like this turning your face red?" Xie Ming looked into Bai Yang's eyes.
This little girl reminded her of Lu shi who was similarly hard-working and very adorable.
However, she has to face injustice and many times has to bear the humiliation from Xiao Li and Wen Xu in Zhao Ming's place.
Not only that, even their servants also looked down at her. Lu shi has to bear the humiliation because Zhao Ming was not powerful enough to protect her at that time.
However, she never punished herself or never shot at her. But this kind of violence was common in the palace.
However, she has never thought that people in this world, who were very concerned with laws and human rights, could show such crude behavior.
At this moment, she realized that this world is no different from her time.
There are also a few people who do not treat other people as human. They think they can win everything with money and power.
Bai Yang didn't say anything and just keep sobbing. Song Xiner gets a cup of water and handed her to drink it.
Bai Yang looked at Song Xiner thankfully and took the cup of water with her trembling hands and drank it.
Xie Ming felt her head hurting seeing bai Yang in this condition. She was feeling bad for her condition.
She was just a child yet. She was in a college and was doing work to earn her tuition but what kind of things she did to deserve such heinous behavior.
After Bai Yang calmed down, Xie Ming looked at her and asked again, " Did Yuan Lei did this to you? Did she slap you? And what about this burn mark on your hands? What exactly happened?"
Bai Yang was surprised to see the concerned look in Xie Ming's eyes and felt glad.
She pursed her lips and looked at Xie Ming vulnerably and nodded.
" After we came to our room, Yuan Lei realized that we were supposed to stay in the same room. She doesn't want me to stay with her and does not want to stay her money to let me stay in another room as well. She told me to sleep on the floor at night near the toilet." she started explaining what has happened to her.
" She said that I would dirty the sofa if I sleep there. I should not think that we can sleep in the same room," she said with her trembling voice as tears rolled down to her cheeks.
Xie Ming and Song Xiner looked at each other seeing Bai Yang's condition. They felt that Yuan Lei is much more cruel than they had imagined.
" I did not say anything because I was already used to her this kind of behavior. Then she asked me to get a coffee for her and told me to make it hot as she was tired and need to refresh."
" But when she held the cup, she flipped it over me which fell onto me which burned my hands. She said that it was too hot and shouted at me for not being careful. She disregarded the fact that it fell onto my bare hands and ordered me to get another cup of coffee."
" She didn't care that if I get burned or not. She only cares about herself. Not only that, when I tried to put an ointment on my burn before getting a coffee for her, but she shouted at me for being oversensitive and that I am not doing my work properly."
" I tried to reason with her but she slapped me hard on my face saying that I was being a brat and was arguing with her. She even threw my luggage out saying that I do not deserve to stay in the same room as her. She told me to sleep outside and do not dream to come inside." after saying her words, she burst out in tears.
Xie Ming's heart pained hearing the difficulties that a little girl has to face. Yuan Lei was too much.
She resisted herself to go out and slap that bi*ch on face. Song Xiner saw the dark expressions on Xie Ming's face and patted her arm, " Relax. You need to think rationally. You don't need to worry about this stuff. If you did anything then you would be only bringing trouble for yourself."
" And you have not even debuted yet. You can't afford to offend her. I knew this Yuan Lei is not a nice person, but we can't dare to offend her at this moment. " she tried to cool her down.
Song Xiner knows that Yuan Lei is not someone nice and it would only harm Xie Ming for offending her.
Bai Yang nodded hearing Song Xiner's words and said, " Yes. Don't worry. I am fine. It's nothing serious. I am used to all this. It just…… I was so emotional right now that I make you all worried. But I am truly fine."
" I am used to all this. Her anger will calm down by tomorrow. It's nothing."
" Stop talking nonsense. How can you be fine? Do you think I am a fool that can't see your injuries. Bai Yang is this all necessary to bear this much pain just to earn money. Do you have to continue working for Yuan Lei?" she asked with concern.
She could not figure out why she is working for Yuan Lei when she has to bear such torture.
