Chapter 357 “Revenge For You (3)”
Di Xiao Wan was so shocked by the news that she didn’t even realize how big her beautiful eyes were popping.
Does Brother want to pursue Bai Yan or not? If he’s being so cruel then how am I supposed to help his case? This is just too outrageous!
Not missing how startled her friend there was, Chu Yi Yi immediately chimes in with her enchanting ways: “Oh Di Xiao Wan, turns out your brother is such a ferocious man that he’s totally different from my brother who is kind and gentle. Did I mention he would even pluck the stars from the starry sky for her?”
Unamused by the comparison, the demon princess quickly fires back with her own argument: “If your brother is so capable then why hasn’t he won over Sister-in-law’s heart yet? I bet they never even shared a kiss yet while I personally saw my brother doing it!”
Stunned by how quick witted the dumbaclutz was here today, Chu Yi Yi really had the urge to smash her own head in for taking the opponent so lightly.
“It’s getting late. If you two want to continue arguing then we’re leaving first.” Pricking her brow, Bai Yan didn’t forget to leave behind her last remark to the demon princess: “Oh yes, I will pass on what you said just now to your brother.”
Initially Di Xiao Wan was still cheeky over her momentary victory, but that last comment instantly shattered her ego. Showing a grieving face, she attempts to use the remaining time to plead for mercy before it’s too late.
……
Inside the private room of the restaurant, Bai Zhi’s expression was somewhat twisted after retracting her gaze from the street.
“Zhi?” Not missing the extreme change in the girl’s face, the man sitting across from her quickly wrinkles his forehead in response: “Is something wrong?”
The question definitely had an effect on relieving the girl’s mood. Returning her eyes over to the handsome young man, Bai Zhi starts getting all teary like how her sister usually does.
“Brother Lu, I just saw Bai Yan, the woman I’ve told you about. It wasn’t enough for her to frame my sister Bai Ruo, now she also wants to clear out my family in its entirety.” Then as if that wasn’t enough, the girl deliberately lowers her head while biting that lip, making her look all the more weak and pitiful.
Mother always said men like those who are more sensible. So, to get to Lu Zifeng’s heart, I must learn to be like my sister and copy her ways. Only by snatching his heart will I be able to become a part of the Holy Land.
“But…” Raising her head, Bai Zhi reveals a sad and pitiful smile, “Brother Lu, you mustn’t get involved with this matter. No matter how much my sister hates us and malign us, I just know that so long as I can justify our consciousness then that’s enough. Even if this means the world will continue to misunderstand us.”
What a good load of bullcrap there!
Nevertheless, it had the perfect effect on rousing Lu Zifeng’s anger. Gently caressing Bai Zhi’s face, he warmly pulls her in for an embrace: “You mustn’t say that to me Zhi. Don’t worry, I’ve already had Nangong Yi consume the forbidden pills I readied for him. During the next month or so, his cultivation will return to its peak prior to his injury. And as an insurance, I also enhanced his powers to a whole new level.”
Looking up in surprise, Bai Zhi almost sounded hesitant there until she realizes what it meant for her future: “This…. wouldn’t that be bad? What if there’s a side effect to the forbidden pills?”
“There is nothing wrong with it. A man who can’t even protect his beloved woman doesn’t deserve to live to begin with. I, Lu Zifeng, would never allow the woman that I love to leave my arms.”
With that said, the man then tightens his grip around hers and causes the girl to shyly lower her head in embarassement.
“Brother Lu,” biting her lip as if the next part was difficult to say, “I know you are doing this for me; however, Bai Xiao is still the only son of the Bai House. He’s bound to be the heir to my father’s name so we can’t over do this with him. Can you have Nangong Yi spare his life and only abolish his cultivation?”
Sighing at that kindness, Lu Zifeng wanted to thank the divine for giving him this wondering girl. Sadly for him, that’s no kindness at all, just his misconception!
