Lan Yue gave birth to a stillborn?
Compared with Old Madam Yu poisoning Lan Yue, this news was far more reaching and instantly stirred up a storm within the crowd.
If Lan Yue gave birth to a dead baby years ago then wouldnât it mean Bai Yan isnât Bai Zheng Xiangâs own flesh and blood?
âSoâ¦â Bai Yan paused, letting her words sink in before sneering at the bastard in question: âWhat more do you have to say now?â
Sure enough, not even Bai Zheng Xiang can continue to cling onto his last glimmer of delusion for survival. Slowly collapsing to the ground, he repeatedly mumbles to himself in complete horror: âImpossible, my wife couldnât have given birth to a stillborn, impossibleâ¦.â
âWhatâs impossible?â The Dowager could no longer stand it anymore and stepped forward, âI also read the letter myself. It clearly stated in there word by word so thereâs no falseness in that. Furthermore, as if a good child like Yan Yan could ever be your flesh and blood. In fact, I doubt even Bai Xiao is yours either!â
âSister,â by now Bai Xiao had come before his sisterâs side. From that young handsome face, the lad was extremely frosty like a sharpened blade ready to strike, âI want to personally avenge Motherâs death. Let me repay the blood debt today!â
Not going squash that conviction in her brotherâs eye, Bai Yan readily nods before turning to the side, âYi Yi, go with my brother and take several of the guards with you too. I donât want him to dirty his hand too much with blood.â
No matter how far Bai Xiao has come in his growth, the lad was still the very same clean and gentle boy from way back. For that reason alone, the woman refuses to let anything dirty or foul to her brotherâs heart.
âDonât worry, leave this matter to me.â Patting her chest in assurance, Chu Yi Yi easily made her promise, âYou three over there, come with me!â
âYes Princess,â responding with swiftness in their voice, the guards needed no further instruction to move.
âWhat do you want to help with?â
âYou can ask me to do anything.â Thatâs right, so long as she doesnât need to stay so close to her brother then thatâs all fine and dandy. Her nerve simply canât take so much fright in one day.
âThen you can go to the Lan House and tell my grandfather to prepare some rooms. My three shifus here are going to stay the night.â After musing over the options, Bai Yan figured this was the best course of action without making a mess of things.
âThank you Sister-in-law!â Not needing any encouragement, Di Xiao Wan instantly rushed out of the area like a shooting star. In a blink of an eye, her figure was already out of sight.
Naturally this sort of frightened rabbit reaction wouldnât go unnoticed by Di Cang himself. Wrinkling his brow, he turns to his woman for answer: âAm I that scary?â
âOh, are you trying to defend for her now?â Raising a grin, Di Cang was rather pleased there.
âNo, I am just telling the truth.â
âIs it?â Pulling the woman into his embrace, Di Cangâs voice became meltingly soft like the female there would break at the slightest force: âIts already a great leniency on my end that Iâm not beating her, you canât exactly expect me to start treating her as good as you now can I? No one in this world can make me treat them in such a fashion, not even my sister.â

âDonât worry about her, she has someone to dote on her instead.â Acting as if he couldnât see the black lines hovering over her face, Di Cang continues to do his smooth talking, âI only need to dote on you and thatâs enough.â
âBut what about me?â It was then a third voice chimed in from the side, thus breaking this lovely mood.
