Chapter 2586

“My brother has always had the habit of training in the back mountain, so it’s not surprising for him to be there.”

“As for him saying he was looking for Bei Zicheng, probably because he also noticed Bei Zicheng’s tracks.”

“But I believe, my brother definitely wouldn’t kill him.”

When Baili Xia said these words, she actually felt a bit anxious inside.

Last time they were wrongfully accused of kidnapping Bei Xier, and Bei Xier could come back to help clear their name.

But now, Bei Zicheng is dead with no evidence, who else can prove my brother’s innocence?

Her gaze unconsciously turned towards Bei Tianyou; in the Bei Family, only Brother You has the capability to help.

Sure enough, Bei Tianyou raised his eyebrows slightly and said blandly, “Jumping to conclusions without a thorough investigation, Clan Leader, isn’t that a bit far-fetched?”

He gently patted Baili Xia on the shoulder, giving her a comforting look.

But when he turned to face Bei Qingyue, his face became indifferent.

When he mentioned the words “Clan Leader”, he intentionally raised his voice slightly.

Normally, Bei Tianyou would address her as Auntie.

Now addressing her as Clan Leader, how could Bei Qingyue not understand his implication?

Was he hinting that even though she is the Clan Leader, she couldn’t use her position to oppress the people beneath her?

You defended this girl tirelessly, not afraid of offending her as his aunt at all.

Annoyed by Bei Tianyou, Bei Qingyue held a pent-up frustration but couldn’t vent it out.

Just because Xiaoyao came down from the back mountain and said a couple of things, what does that represent?

It’s true to say that, but Bei Qingyue had to do something.

Otherwise, how would she explain to the Ling Family and the Old Madam later?

But with so many subordinates watching, she couldn’t be too unreasonable.

Bei Qingyue calmed her expression, cleared her thoughts, and slowly spoke.

“You, I’m not trying to convict Mu Xiaoyao right now; it’s just that his suspicion is currently the highest.”

“If he didn’t kill the person, I won’t do anything to him.”

“You should know the stakes involved here.”

“If you insist on hindering, you’d better go to your grandmother first and see what she says.”

She tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart, speaking calmly with Bei Tianyou.

If he truly disregarded the Bei Family’s interests for this girl, she would teach him a lesson with the Old Madam’s support.

Bei Tianyou pulled at the corners of his mouth and said, “Alright, since Auntie says so, I am relieved.”

“When Mr. Mu Xiaoyao returns, I will go with him to Wangyue Pavilion.”

After speaking, his gaze turned cold as he continued, “As for Xiaxia, there’s not even a hint of suspicion on her, so you’re not taking her anywhere.”

Bei Tianyou’s changes in expression were completely unhidden, and Bei Qingyue could easily discern his attitude.

“In that case, I’ll wait for him to return.”

After speaking, she glanced back over her shoulder.

“Send a few people to stand guard, inform me when Mu Xiaoyao returns.”

“Yes,” the subordinates immediately responded.

Baili Xia raised an eyebrow; Bei Qingyue was still not giving up on keeping an eye on my brother.

Besides them and Bei Zicheng, who else had a motive to kill him?

Bei Tianyou didn’t say anything more, just quietly watched Bei Qingyue arrange everything in front of him.

She could do whatever she wanted as long as she didn’t touch his bottom line.

Bei Qingyue left with a team of people, and the few remaining stayed to guard outside Bi Luo Pavilion’s courtyard.
