62 Quid pro quo (2/2)

Not even bothering to ask Yailing to let go of his sister, Bai Zhen was seriously thinking.

He didn't have the slightest problem in throwing his sister away, but, Bai Zhen wanted to figure out why Yailing wanted to get rid of her son.

From what he heard, Bai Shen was so arrogant that he didn't even respect his mother. And there was once a rumour where he heard of Bai Shen telling his mother to sell her body away and get him the throne one way or the other.

But still, he needed to have done something even worse to make a mother want to dispose of her own son.

Not that the reason mattered much anyway.

”I don't have any problem with killing Bai Shen. But what about Sun Hai? I don't think he'll stay silent while I kill the Crown Prince whom he is supporting.”

”You don't have to worry about Sun Hai. I'm the one who made him announce that he was supporting the Crown Prince.”

Nodding his head with realizing that his thoughts about someone in the shadows pulling the strings being true. Bai Zhen looked towards Yailing who was most likely the one that was pulling the strings.

”What do you say? This bitch, or a chance to fight for the throne?”

Staying silent for a few seconds, Bai Zhen looked towards his sister who was begging him to save her with his eyes.

Standing up, Bai Zhen began walking away by saying, ”You have a deal. When can I expect to obtain Cao Hai's support?”

”In less than a week. It was good doing business with you.”

Saying so Yailing didn't bother waiting, and directly used her other hand to turn Bai Xiu's robes into shreds.

”I'm going to enjoy teaching you.”

”Aaaaaaaaa!”

...

Ignoring the pain filled scream of his sister, Bai Zhen didn't even bother to stop, much less go check on her.

As far as Bai Zhen was considered, his sister was just a huge pain in the ass that he was able to finally get rid off. At the same time, for the first time in her life, Bai Xiu was being of use to him.

Now all that was left of him to do, was plan ahead and defeat Yailing at her own game.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

While Yailing did promise to provide him with Cao Hai's support, there were no talks about what would happen next.

And quite simply, there didn't need to be any.

Yailing was already doing him a great favour by promising to provide him with Cao Hai's support. As for there being some sort of scheme, or a hidden plan behind giving him Cao Hai's support, none of that mattered to Bai Zhen.

He was quite confident in obtaining Cao Hai's loyalty in one way or the other after he managed to obtain his support.

And once he did, Bai Zhen would use the opportunity to get rid of Bai Shen, and then his mother.

”Let's hope your sacrifice pays off sister. If it does, and you're still alive when I become the King, I'll let you have that dream harem you always wanted to have.”

With that said, Bai Zhen was now completely out of range to hear any more of Bai Xiu's nonstop screams.
