C117 (2/2)
She had to do something to resolve this crisis.
Just that, how could he let the world know that Shangguan Jingyan was not Phoenixis Maiden without batting an eyelid?
”Miss, the Prime Minister Bai has sent someone to take you home.”
Just as she was overwhelmed with anxiety, Zi Li's voice sounded out from outside the door.
Hearing this, Bai Zhixi's beautiful face had a trace of a sneer. Did the sun rise from the west today?
Her Third Uncle, who wanted to eat her, had actually sent someone to invite her back to the clan. It was truly inconceivable.
However, she also understood in her heart that this return probably contained some unspeakable secrets!
It was time for her to go back.
She had the nagging feeling that her parents weren't killed by the witch church, and that there must be a secret behind it.
However, if he wanted to solve this mystery, he would have to return to the Prime Minister's Estate.
The actions of the Prime Minister Bai could be considered to be doing her a favor.
”Tell them I'll go down.”
Bai Zhixi's clear and cold eyes revealed a hint of gentleness as she spoke to Zi Li faintly.
”Miss, are you really going back?”
Hearing her words, Orange Frost's face was filled with worry. In the past two months, her Prime Minister's Estate had undergone an earth-shattering change. She was afraid that the little miss would suffer a loss once again from those people.
”Orange Frost, that's where I grew up. My grandfather is still there waiting for me to reunite with him. Don't worry, Zi Li, Lu Tan and Windy Flower are all there. They will protect me well. Rest assured! Perhaps one day, we will be able to use them all. ”
Bai Zhixi patted Cheng Shuang's shoulder, and said sincerely.
How could she not know that these girls her age were worried about her?
However, there were some things that she had to face and do.
”Miss, the current Prime Minister's Estate is no longer something that can be said to cover the sky with one hand. You must remember not to provoke them. ”
Just as Bai Zhixi turned around, she heard an admonishing voice from behind.
She smiled brightly. Could it be that Auntie Du had finally managed to turn things around? If that was the case, she would have been able to save some effort.
”Alright!”
Bai Zhixi smiled gently.
She had said that as long as they were obedient and didn't take the initiative to challenge her bottom line, everyone could live a peaceful life.
As the sun set in the west, old general stood in front of the Prime Minister's Estate gate with ”bamboo strings”, stretching his neck and looking at the empty street.
”Grandpa …”
Bai Zhixi called out with a hint of bitterness. She did not want to come in the carriage prepared by the Prime Minister Bai, so she was afraid that it would lead to another incident of ”spilling blood like a dog”.
The reason why he and Zi Li had flown over while displaying their Qing Gong was because they wanted to quietly go find the Old Duke. However, they didn't expect to see him standing at the entrance, blowing on the cold wind, most likely waiting for them.
Just as the word ”grandpa” escaped his mouth, tears streamed down his face. He was confused by the sight before him, unable to stop himself from crying.
”Stupid girl, you really came back. Why didn't you just stay in the wilderness and get eaten by wolves? That would save me the worry and worry about you. When you come back, you still have your father to invite. You really are an unfilial son! ”
The old prince walked towards her with quick steps while cursing nonstop.
Seeing his current appearance, Bai Zhixi didn't know whether to laugh or cry in his heart, but he was very pleased.
It could be seen that during the two months she had been gone, Blue Luan and Green Tan had taken good care of him. Otherwise, how could he have the strength to scold her?
”Silly girl, did you fall stupid this time?”
Old General Bai suddenly placed his hand on her forehead and said angrily.
”Even if I'm stupid, I still have to rely on you.”
Bai Zhixi muttered under her breath, she threw herself into his embrace and started crying unrestrainedly.
Day and night, her greatest worry was her grandfather. Now that he had seen it, he didn't know how to describe his current mood. He could only let the words he wanted to say drown in his tears.
”Alright, let's talk inside if you have any bitterness. What is the proper place for people to be crying on this street. ”
Old General Bai pushed her away disdainfully, then tidied up the clothes that Bai Zhixi had wrinkled.
Walking into the Prime Minister's Estate with a face full of smiles, one could see that he was in an extremely happy mood right now.
Even though the news of Bai Zhixi returning to the clan had already spread through the streets and alleys, the people from the Prime Minister's Estate had not taken her seriously.
An orphan girl who stayed with the Prime Minister was not worth it for them to go to the door to greet her.
If it were not for the pressure from the Old General Bai, Prime Minister Bai would not have sent anyone to Love Sea to ”invite” her back.
Perhaps, it didn't matter whether she returned or not. Or rather, if she didn't return, that was what they hoped for.
