I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family - Chapter 765 - 713: Who’s Looking for Trouble?

Chapter 765: Chapter 713: Who’s Looking for Trouble?

Bai Zhi always found Han Sheng standing before her somewhat odd.

Talking all over the place; he couldn’t have gone mad, could he?

The grandfather and the others had worked hard to bring this man’s crimes to light and had deprived him of his right-hand men,

Yet now he behaved like a lunatic, this…

“That’ll be all, then. Brother Han Feng must be waiting for you to eat.”

Bai Zhi pointed towards the main gate, her intent to see the guest out was quite clear.

But Han Sheng acted as if he hadn’t heard, and instead, he laughed.

He looked at Bai Zhi with a chuckle, then surveyed the courtyard.

“Little girl, why don’t you want me to stay? Could it be that there’s something you don’t want me to know?”

The first thing Han Sheng did when he arrived was to walk through the place.

Back then, Han Sheng hadn’t grown up in Bai Family Village; at that time, the common people were in dire straits. Even though the Ancestor had adopted him, they were always on the move, toiling for the sake of the nation.

So, naturally, he never came back. Later, when he saw his adoptive father’s abilities, he thought them particularly miraculous and began an investigation…

He discovered his adoptive father had many secrets.

In his view, the adoptive father was capable of strategy and valor, clearly fit to be among the elite, but he chose only to be a military advisor.

That was foolish, incredibly foolish. Born into poverty, he had always lived at the bottom of society and understood one thing: to live well, one must have money and power.

His father had money and many friends and disciples; he could’ve even become emperor if he wanted.

But he chose not to.

Scheming and contributing funds and efforts, and in the end wanting nothing in return, that’s not a saint, that’s a fool.

Thus, Han Sheng began to scheme and eventually was expelled from the Bai Family.

After further investigation, he discovered that the Bai Family had a secret, a secret that could reverse life and death.

He didn’t believe his adoptive father was truly dead.

For that man was like a celestial being; how could he just die so easily, so simply?

He certainly didn’t believe it.

Not to mention, now he felt full of strength, radiant with health.

He could sense his battered body rejuvenated,

Previously carrying a stench, the smell of decay that comes with impending death.

Even his attempt to mask it with other herbs had been futile. _{f .r e\ewebnov(e)(l).c om}

He had learned medical skills from his adoptive father, who had personally taught him, which is why he knew exactly what state his body was in.

His body had long lost its vitality.

Sustained now only by various herbs. But now…

So you see, not everything one says is the mad ravings of lunacy.

At the very least, he believed the words of Nan Xi, so Bai Zhi then…

Was she reborn, or had she transmigrated?

Did she have a space on her hands, did it contain treasures?

Certainly.

He was now utterly convinced, there definitely were.

And he must get, had to get, whatever Bai Zhi possessed.

The way Bai Zhi rushed him to leave must surely be because she feared he would discover this secret.

So he must, had to, certainly had to, get hold of the items no matter what.

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi laughed. This questioning tone, how incredibly punch-worthy, made her want to hit him right there and then, without hesitation.

“You’re being quite humorous. When visiting someone else’s home, no one should act as you do, assessing everything. I’m suspecting you have ulterior motives concerning my home.

Since I welcomed you, you should leave on your own, shouldn’t you? And yet here you are, as if you haven’t seen my displeased expression. I’m starting to think you’re shameless.”

Bai Zhi hadn’t expected that someone so old could still be so shameless.

It was truly laughable.

“You…”

Han Sheng hadn’t expected Bai Zhi to suddenly speak like this, so outright.

“What, did I say something wrong? Han… Grandpa, isn’t that right? People should know their place, recognize when they are unwelcome, and understand what they should do, shouldn’t they?

Or do you really have some ulterior motive concerning my family?”

Since the facades were torn already, there was no point in pretending to be friendly and supportive.

It was better to have an open feud; from now on, if she had issues, Han Sheng would be her first suspect.

After seeing the note from Han Feng, Bai Zhi looked at this person and felt disgusted, extremely disgusted.

He could actually bear to eat…

It was truly revolting.

Although Nan Xi got what she deserved, being treated like a pig surely was intolerable for her, and perhaps she already said that I was the same as her.

That’s why Han Sheng looked at me with a hint of greed in his eyes.

Like some irresistible food, which made me feel utterly nauseated.

“You child, I just complimented your cooking, and you become so confrontational.”

Han Sheng left with a flick of his sleeve.

But Bai Zhi laughed, further convinced of her suspicion that this man harbored the intention of “raising her like livestock.”

And there was Han Feng, unsure of what had become of him now.

Now that the families in the village disagreed, the few who were ready to sign the contracts discovered that this was a traditional village, and demolitions simply weren’t allowed.

So all their efforts were in vain, and every family was in conflict.

Fortunately, it wasn’t a significant location, so it was deemed unimportant.

“Xingxing, why are you so irritable today?”

Li Mo was a bit puzzled, about to say something, but Bai Xin pulled him back. The old Xingxing had always been very docile.

“Aunt, Uncle, haven’t you been thinking about going on a trip recently? I think now is the time. Let’s leave today.”

With Han Sheng’s arrival, the elders’ plans were certainly disrupted, but the plan had to continue, so we definitely couldn’t let the elders come back.

But with Aunt here, I equally couldn’t be at ease.

My aunt is pregnant; she needs to be emotionally stable.

“But…”

Bai Xin frowned, almost the New Year.

“Xingxing, you’re being foolish, tomorrow is the 29th, and you want us to leave?”

Although Bai Xin understood there must be a reason, she was unwilling to go.

“Aunt, a daughter is like water poured out once married, and now what, you want to cling to my family’s home for New Year’s, bringing us bad luck?”

Bai Zhi suddenly darkened her face and slammed the table hard, her gaze toward Bai Xin turning icy.

“Aunt, I wanted to say this before, you’re married off, can’t you have some self-awareness? Don’t keep lingering in your maternal home, let me tell you this is my home.

All of the Bai Family’s possessions, even a tiny stone, will be mine, Bai Zhi’s belongings, and have nothing to do with you.”

Bai Zhi finished, just to see Bai Xin’s eyes glistening with tears, hands tightly clutching Li Mo, wanting to speak but holding back.

Li Mo couldn’t hold back, how could she speak to Bai Xin like this.

“Bai Zhi, you’ve gone too far.”

Li Mo’s face turned dark, extremely angry at Bai Zhi’s sudden reversal. Had she been like this before, he would never have brought his wife back.

“Too far? Li Mo, I haven’t even started on you yet, and you jump out?”

Bai Zhi crossed her arms and pointed at Li Mo, beginning to scold him.

“Everyone knows my aunt married you, but people who don’t know might think you’re the one who married into our family.”
