Ye Yuwei felt like she was about to explode with anger.
Ye Xicheng sat obediently beside his mother. Cautiously raising his head, he stared at his mother and wanted to say that the old meatball was really skilled at digging his own grave.
“Mommy, are we bringing little sister to see the doctor tomorrow?” Ye Xicheng asked anxiously as he touched his sister’s face.
When Ye Yuwei heard her son’s question, her emotions calmed. She looked down at her sleeping daughter. “Yes. No matter what happens, we should at least give it a try first.”
Ye Xicheng nodded—as long as his sister’s illness could be cured, he was willing to do anything.
At the Bai family fortress in a certain country.
Bai Ying was once again drawing by the window, only this time it was the image of two children.
“Mistress, a few elders are discussing the matter of bringing the young miss back.” The maid standing behind her whispered.
Bai Ying was carefully painting Xixi’s eyes, as if she had not been disturbed at all.
“Since they are willing to go against Gu Juexi, let them be. However, tell them not to forget about learning from past mistakes like Cheng Jie.” Bai Ying said calmly while continuing to paint.
The servant’s face bore a contemplative expression, as if mulling over her next words.
After Bai Ying finished painting the eyes of Xixi, she put down the paintbrush. “Actually, this child does bear some resemblance to Ye Shu.”
“She resembles Miss Yuwei.” The maid said while looking at the portrait.
“Out with it.” Bai Ying turned around to look at the maid.
The maid took a deep breath. “I heard the third patriarch say to ask that man to bring the young miss out, and also to go to Wushan to deal with a person.”
Bai Ying paused in the movement of wiping her hands. “Wushan?”
“That is what I heard.” The maid said softly.
“Wushan.” Bai Ying kept murmuring. ‘Ye Shu had said before that that place was his true place of origin.’ Bai Ying thought to herself. All of a sudden, she looked up and put her hands on the maid’s shoulders. “It’s Ye Shu. He’s finally appeared. He has really appeared.”
Bai Ying’s voice was incredulous, and repressed emotions surged through her.
Six years. For six long years, she had been waiting for news of Ye Shu and finally, her wait was about to end.
The maid was also happy for her. “Mistress, your hardships are coming to an end.”
“Finally, the fate of the Bai family will be sealed.” Bai Ying took a deep breath and let go of the maid’s arm. “Inform the elders: the person who Bai Yuyan offended is Gu Juexi. If we drew a line against Gu Juexi now, it will result in Gu Juexi targeting us. Therefore, Bai Yuyan must not be saved.”
The maid nodded; she already knew this.
Bai Ying watched the maid leave and wrung her hands. Even if Bai Yuyan would not be saved, she also would not let Bai Yuyan say anything that could harm Ye Yuwei.
B City, Qianfeng Hotel.
Ye Yuwei had already packed up and informed Nalan Chunbo. Nalan Chunbo did not raise any objection this time.
Since everything was already packed, Ye Yuwei could finally lie down. While chatting with Xiao Yaojing, she felt that her friend was in a much better mood.
[Yaojing: Heard that your tires were punctured. What was the purpose? Didn’t want to let you go, or intending to give you a lift?
Yezi: Hehe—
Yaojing: What is with that reply?
Yezi: I think you may be misunderstanding Gu Juexi. You are trying to figure out his purpose from a normal person’s perspective—is that fair to him?
Yaojing: Haha, I know that things are not that simple. So, what did he do?]
What had he done?
Ye Yuwei did not want to explain it a second time, otherwise she was afraid that on the way to Shennongjia, she might just strangle Gu Juexi to death.
