Yun Ran and MO Beiyuan also remained silent with an unspoken mutual understanding.
Cui Ruyu’s mental state was not good, to begin with. In addition, there were rumors in the palace that the emperor had suddenly died from an evil illness because he had done too many bad things and had been killed by vengeful spirits.
As a result, Cui Ruyu really thought that Bai Wan and Bai Ze, who had appeared in front of her, were vengeful spirits who had come to take her life.
“No, no, no. It’s not me. It’s really not me. It’s all due to the emperor. The emperor wants the lives of the Bai family. It’s really not me. I didn’t do anything.”
Bai Wan said faintly, “We can’t rest in peace. Now that we’ve become ghosts, we won’t be able to reincarnate if we don’t drag the people who killed the Bai family into hell.”
As she spoke, she raised her arm and said to Bai Ze, “Brother, we cant find Cui Cheng, so we can only get his child to repay the debt.”
Bai Ze also nodded and echoed in a low voice, “The son pays the father’s debt.
Cui Ruyu had already broken down mentally. Under immense psychological fear, she revealed Cui Cheng’s secret.
“I, I know where he is. If you want to kill him, go find him! I’ll tell you, tell you where he is.”
“His name isn’t Cui Cheng now. He has changed his name and identity. He’s not in the East Continent now. He’s in Dajing. His name is Liu Cheng! He’s the famous Liu in Dajing. He’s a renowned philanthropist.”
“A philanthropist?” Bai Ze pursed his thin lips sarcastically.
That Cui Cheng had harmed his brothers in exchange for wealth, yet he still had the cheek to be called a “philanthropist”!
Since she had already received news about Cui Cheng, Bai Wan stopped feigning.
She took a few steps forward and shouted sternly, “Cui Ruyu, open your eyes and look carefully. I’m not dead, and Big Brother isn’t dead either! We’re both still alive. I want to live and watch you and your father go to hell!”
“No, you’re not dead!”
Under the faint moonlight, Cui Ruyu mustered her courage and looked at them. Only then did she realize that their shadows were reflected on the window.
“Yes, there are shadows. You’re not ghosts!’
Then, her eyes widened in horror. “No, no, how could this be? Bai Ze, why is Bai Ze still alive?! My father said that he saw with his own eyes that the four of you, father and sons, were all dead! All dead! How did you come back from the dead?”
Knowing that they were humans, Cui Ruyu was even more terrified.
That was because she knew what the Bai family was like. They would do anything to avenge their loved ones!
They would not let her off!
Therefore, the death of the emperor might also be the work of the Bai family!
For the sake of revenge, the Bai family even dared to kill the emperor. Then what was she?
At the thought of this, Cui Ruyu trembled like a leaf and kept trying to clear her name.
‘Everything was the plan of the emperor and Cui Cheng. It was their plan. It has nothing to do with me! I’m just a weak woman who doesn’t even have the strength to truss a chicken. They want to harm the Bai family. What can I do?”
“Brother Bai Ze, please, please believe me!’
It was unknown if it was because she had been depressed in the palace, but Cui Ruyu’s hair was disheveled and she looked very old.
However, even after more than 20 years, Bai Wan and Bai Ze still maintained their youthful appearances.
This was also why Cui Ruyu mistook the two of them for ghosts. It was impossible for a normal person to maintain their youthful appearance after 20 years without much change..
