Chapter 2559

The hall fell silent, and after a while, the Old Madam said, “Who are these black-clad people? Why are they trying to kill you?”

Bei Xier didn’t know; it was her first time encountering such a scene.

To be honest, as long as she came back alive, she didn’t care who those people were.

Baili Xia glanced at Mu Xiaoyao and said, “I think they wanted to capture me to use as leverage against Uncle.”

“We encountered a group of assassins at the Mu family once, and their attire was the same as these black-clad people we saw yesterday. They might be accomplices.”

“What do you mean by that? You’ve seen them?” The Old Madam raised her eyebrows.

Just like when we encountered them at the Mu family?

Did the Mu family offend someone, so they’re being pursued all the way to Bei Miao?

Is it because of them that Xi’er got involved?

Knowing the Old Madam must have misunderstood something, Baili Xia paused, then looked at her to explain.

“When we were at the Mu family, I even had a fight with those black-clad people.”

“They are much more skilled than average assassins. If it were one-on-one, I surely wouldn’t be their match.”

“Later, Uncle told me those people belonged to a powerful and secretive organization.”

“What secretive organization?” the Old Madam asked.

She glanced at Bei Qingyue. How come she hadn’t heard anything about this?

But Bei Qingyue shook her head, indicating she hadn’t heard of this secretive organization.

Only Bei Tianyou’s fingertips twitched slightly.

He knew that probably this was linked to the incident at Mu Lingchuan’s wedding.

Baili Xia nodded and continued, “This secretive organization has a very tight structure; even if captured, they wouldn’t divulge any information.”

“Their forces have already infiltrated various families in Jin City, aiming to control the major powers there.”

“It must be said that they have great ambitions. Fortunately, Uncle acted in time to thwart their plan.”

After a pause, she looked at the Old Madam again, with a complex expression in her eyes.

“Now they’ve appeared in Bei Miao; I wonder if they have the same intentions.”

This time, not just the Old Madam, but even Bei Qingyue’s face grew a few shades graver.

Reflecting on it, the Bei family indeed had many strange occurrences lately.

Take this incident, for instance. How did these black-clad people know so conveniently about their outing and attack them outside?

Calling it a coincidence, wouldn’t it be too much of a coincidence?

Very few people knew that Bei Zicheng took Bei Xier out this time.

Who leaked this information to the outside?

Is it really a problem within the Bei family?

If no one had leaked the information, it’s impossible for those black-clad people to have intercepted the kids so conveniently outside.

Thinking of this, the Old Madam’s face grew more solemn.

With a faint composure, she looked at Bei Qingyue and said seriously, “Qingyue, you must get to the bottom of this.”

“I want to see who exactly is trying to harm my Bei family.”

Bei Qingyue’s face grew serious.

“Yes, Mom, I know what to do.”

The situation now seems more than just an attempt to harm Bei Xier and the others.

It’s as if a big hand has already infiltrated the Bei family. What do they want to do?

Who in the Bei family is colluding with this secret organization?

Thinking this through, Bei Qingyue’s gaze grew even darker.

Could it be Bei Zicheng?
