Young Master Bai was not too old, so when he heard that, he was stunned. Then, he nodded and said, “It was me.”
These three simple words shocked the entire house.
Bai Qinxiang slapped her son. “What nonsense are you talking about?!”
“Mother is panicking? So you’re panicking for your son? Or perhaps, Mother is worried that after I left, no one will inherit the family business?
“That’s not right. I heard some of it at the door just now. I thought that Mother is just looking for someone to be your company. I didn’t expect that you would give birth to a daughter early on and give it away. In this way, the Bai family will have a successor.” Young Master Bai’s voice was sharp and weak.
Bai Qinxiang’s entire body trembled. “You shouldn’t admit the crime that you didn’t do!
“Sirs, my son is still young and not very sensible…”
Halfway through her words, Young Master Bai laughed.
“What is there to be sensible about?” Young Master Bai laughed mockingly. “When I was young, you and Nie Fei had an affair and sent each other notes. Father and I saw it with our own eyes, but we didn’t stop you.
“I supposed that wasn’t your first time doing such a thing, Mother. It’d be futile even if we stopped you. After all, you don’t have Father in your heart.
“At that time, Father took me with him and waited outside the city for the entire night. The two of you were in the wilderness, having the time of your lives in the horse carriage. Father held me in his arms and stared at me.”
However, he did not understand at that time. Later on, he fell asleep in his father’s arms.
He only thought of it as going out to play.
Three years later, he grew up a little and was no longer so clueless.
He went on a trip with his mother and met another scholar.
He told his father.
And so, the scholar died as well.
He understood his father’s resentment.
The father and son were born ordinary and had no talent. Naturally, they were not worthy of his mother’s attention.
During those years, although his mother did not beat or scold his father, her revulsion was so cold that it chilled one’s heart.
If it was Pang Xiyuan, his father would be able to tolerate it because Pang Xiyuan had a family and his mother was the same. At most, the two of them would have a secret relationship and there would definitely be no future.
However, those scholars were different.
That Nie Fei wrote a lewd poem the next day they met, and he was eager to tell the world that his mother had become his.
“Love encircles the milky way, reflecting the two hearts”…
It had only been one night, yet that Nie Fei actually thought that he and his mother had hit it off and could live together in the future?!
Bai Qinxiang opened her mouth in shock, unable to believe what she had just heard.
Her face was pale and flushed, and it was difficult to distinguish between them. She pointed at her son, unable to speak.
“There’s no need to investigate. The previous two were killed by my Father. He told me before he left.” Young Master Bai was very calm, “He had almost died at the temple outside the city, so he knew that place was evil. He used Mother’s identity to send a message to them. After he tricked them into that place, he strangled them to death and hung them up.”
However, this was the first time that an accident had happened. Someone had mistakenly barged in.
Fortunately, his father hid quickly, and the place was filled with Ghouls’ Flame, which attracted the scholar’s attention.
His father liked the Buddha statues there.
Unlike those merciful Buddha statues, they seemed to be examining the evil in the world, and their eyes were always fierce and frightening.
After his father made it out of the temple alive, he had gone to a Taoist temple to eliminate his bad luck. He had bought something that could repel evil, and he had that thing with him now.
He did not take it out, but Xie Qiao had already seen it.
The jade pendant on his waist should be snow-white color. However, it was now stained with a bit of gloomy black energy, so it was no longer effective.
