Upon hearing Bi Xia’s words, Xia Shi awkwardly tugged at her dress, "How is it? Embarrassing or not?"
Bi Xia looked at Xia Shi with a smile, "How could it be embarrassing? It’s beautiful!"
Bi Xia then winked at Xia Shi, "For someone who gave birth to such a handsome and beautiful kid like me, how could my mom be anything but amazing?"
"Yes! Mom is very beautiful!" Bi Xiaoyuan grabbed Xia Shi’s hand and chimed in.
"Woof!" I agree! Bi Xiaohai wasn’t left behind.
Bi Xiaoyuan glanced at Bi Xiaohai, copycat dog!
Bi Xiaohai snorted, wiggled his little butt, "I, the general, am naturally a dog!"
Xia Shi watched Bi Xiaoyuan and Xiaohai’s antics with a smile, then looked up at Bi Xia, "Just now, your uncle—no, Bi Qingzhi called me and asked me to check on the factory. Bi Qingyun is not home, so I have the final say in Bi Qingyun’s matters."
"I plan to take this opportunity to straighten things out with them," Xia Shi gently stroked Bi Xia’s face, looking at her tenderly, "I’ve done enough working like a horse for the Bi Family. I’ve waited long enough. I won’t live for them anymore, I have you all, and I will live for you."
"No, Mom," Bi Xia shook her head, looking earnestly at Xia Shi, "You should live for yourself."
Xia Shi was taken aback, then smiled and nodded after a moment, "Alright, live for myself!"
"Look," With that, Xia Shi spun around in front of Bi Xia, "How do I look?"
"I thought, no matter what, I can’t lose my spirit today. Back in the day, I, Xia Shi, married into the Bi Family with a big dowry. No matter what they say, do they not see what kind of person I used to be?"
"Oh?" Bi Xia looked at Xia Shi and asked with a smile, "So what kind of person was my mom back then?"
Xia Shi winked, "Your mom used to be a tigress, but unfortunately, after encountering love, this tigress forgot she was a tiger and turned into a sheep..."
"Whether you’re a tiger or a sheep," Bi Xia interrupted Xia Shi, "As long as you have teeth and a temper, you can stand up against those who bully the weak and fear the strong."
"Mom, go for it!" Bi Xiaoyuan gave Xia Shi a big hug, "Chase those bad people away! Mom is a superhero!"
Xia Shi smiled and straightened her back, "Okay."
She then turned to look at her daughter with a smile, "My daughter, aren’t you going to say something?"
Bi Xia curled her lips, "I have something to say."
After examining Xia Shi’s outfit, Bi Xia’s gaze finally fell on the empty wrist, and she smiled, "You have the battle clothes, but you’re missing a piece of armor."
With that, under Xia Shi’s puzzled gaze, she walked into her room, then came out holding a green jade bracelet. She gently picked up Xia Shi’s wrist and put the jade bracelet on it. Looking at the bracelet, Bi Xia curled her lips, "Beautiful."
"Is this the armor? When did you buy it? Why are you always spending money recklessly!" Xia Shi didn’t know what to say at this moment and could only mumble.
"It’s fine. I’m willing to spend money on things for my mom..." Bi Xia kissed the bracelet, and in the brief moment when no one was watching, her starry blue eyes flashed, making the green in the jade bracelet even more vivid, "Don’t take it off. It will protect you just like I will."
Xia Shi looked at Bi Xia’s serious demeanor, paused for a moment, then smiled, "Don’t worry, I definitely won’t take off something you gave me."
Bi Xia watched her confident mother, with determination shining in her eyes, nodded, "Mom, go for it."
When the door closed, Bi Xia and Bi Xiaoyuan exchanged a glance, seeing worry in each other’s eyes. Bi Xia squatted down and patted Bi Xiaoyuan’s head, "Didn’t you just believe in Mom?" For original chapters go to nοvelfire.net
"Believing is one thing," Bi Xiaoyuan pouted, "But worrying is another. I’m afraid the Bi Family will bully Mom."
"Don’t worry, they won’t," Bi Xia said lightly, "If they dare to bully Mom, we’ll go save her and beat up the bad guys."
"Okay!" Bi Xiaoyuan’s eyes lit up as he replied loudly, then abruptly paused, "But brother, how will we know if Mom is getting bullied?"
Bi Xia pinched Bi Xiaoyuan’s nose, "Because...I gave Mom a piece of armor."
In the Learning Space Mall, the defensive bracelet was exchanged for, and imbued with her own spiritual power. Should Xia Shi encounter any danger, she would sense it immediately... Bi Xia’s eyes narrowed slightly, what else could it be but armor?
