To hear that sudden outburst from the little girl, the current chief of the Wang House would of course be not pleased. From that anxious expression to a cold hard one, Wang Yufan speaks out using his stern voice: âDidnât I say to have her not to come out during this period, or did you take my words as a joke instead?!â
âFather!â Wang Deyi roars out in refute, âShe is your own granddaughter, how can you reprimand your own flesh and blood over some outsiders. Besides, this mistake isnât only my daughterâs fault. If that cat didnât try to scare her then why would she cry out?â
Curling that brow, the grandpa knew his son had a point, If this is indeed the catâs fault, thenâ¦.
âMother,â catching a glimpse of that broken brick next to Little Rice, Bai Xiachen chimes in at the perfect timing. âWhat lazy servants this place has, such a big brick lying there and wonât even bother to clean it up. What if someone trips over it?â
Due to everyoneâs attention being gathered around the little girlâs wellbeing, they had inadvertently missed this crucial picture. Now that the little steambun has reminded them all of this, itâs not hard to imagine whatâs going on and whoâs at fault.
Sinking in his old face, the grandpa was the first to speak at this point: âThe servants of my home isnât foolish enough to make such a mistake. I want an explanation Qingâer.â
âIâ¦â Sounding guilty in her voice, the little girl uncomfortably fiddles her finger while answering, âI am not wrong! All I did was throw a brick at it. I wanted to drive this animal away, what wrong did I do?!â
The Wang family have always been a bloodline that prospered on the male side so this elder tended to be extra fond of his granddaughters. Therefore, to hear something like this directly from the girl herself, itâs not hard to imagine how disappointed Wang Yufan was in his old eyes.
âQingâer, I am so disappointed in you. Back then it was you my child who provoked that demon beast, thatâs why it scratched you in the end. Now you want to repeat the same mistake?â Shaking his old head, the grandpa sighs helplessly, âOld Three, take your daughter back to her room and make sure she doesnât step out of the door!â

As resentful as he was over this, Wang Deyi could do nothing right now and decides to leave. However, his legs didnât even get past the first step before the indifferent voice from behind caused him to freeze on the spot.
âDid I say you can leave?â
Enraged to the point of wanting to erupt, Wang Deyi instantly turns around with fire in his eyes: âAnd what do you plan to do about it? Miss Bai Yan, Iâm only letting this slide out of respect for your status as an alchemist. If you continue to push your luck then I will make you regret it for the rest of your life!â
Not minding the rudeness, Bai Yan flatly lays out her terms: âHave her apologize to my Little Rice.â
âWhat?â
This damn woman wants my daughter to say sorry to a blasted animal?
âI donât want to apologize Father, its nothing but a cat.â The girlâs eyes were just as angry as her old manâs, âI am a human, I refuse to apologize to a cat thatâs inferior to me!â
Crossing her arms around the chest, Bai Yan raises a smirk at them: âDonât want to? Alright, thatâs fine. But before then, Iâm sure at least one of you have taken my Dan pills before. Just spit them back out and we can cancel the deal, then we are even.â
âNoâ¦â Steaming as he righteously points at the woman, Wang Deyi refuses to stand down, âOur family purchased the items with our own money, based on what can you demand us to spit it back out?â
Not bothering to answer the ignorant man, Bai Yan only shot a smirky grin at Wang Deqiu whoâs standing to the side.
âThose medicinal Dan pills were provided to us free of charge by Miss Bai Yan here, when did you spend money to buy them?â Heâs been pent up for a while there as well, now that Bai Yan was giving him the chance to take the stage, how can the man not shine?
Provided free of charge? Widening his eyes in shock, Wang Deyi became overwhelmed by his second brotherâs shamelessness.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
This shrewd woman would provide such precious medicines free of charge? As if!
Furthermoreâ¦.
âYou said she provided it free of charge, then where did the money Father sent to you go?â
