Chapter 167: Deception Again



The Great Elder felt relieved and nodded to show that he understood. Then he asked Qi Yunxiao next to him to take the others down to rest first.

At the same time, he subconsciously turned his head and looked at Bai Xiaofei beside him.

After feeling this familiar look, Bai Xiaofei instantly had the answer in his mind.

He knew what the Great Elder's look meant, but Ximen Zhenzi and Lin Yao were there. Ximen Zhenzi only felt the atmosphere go quiet for a moment, and then she wanted to step forward to stop it.

"You can't do this! Great Elder, last time you secretly told Xiaofei to handle that matter from me, and now I don't agree with you doing this! If you want to see me and the baby in my belly born, then go ahead and do it! Don't worry, as long as you let Bai Xiaofei handle this matter now, I will definitely make sure that the baby in my belly can't survive, I say!"

Ximen Mako actually learned how to threaten.

Perhaps it was the aftereffects of being deceived by the Great Elder last time, or perhaps he was worried that Bai Xiaofei would get into big trouble this time when he went out. Ximen Zhenzi was absolutely unwilling to let the Great Elder arrange such a dangerous thing for Bai Xiaofei to do again.

The great elder held his forehead helplessly.

He originally wanted to forget about this matter as if he had never mentioned it, but he didn't expect Bai Xiaofei to come up and look at Ximen Zhenzi seriously. He grabbed her shoulders and comforted her: "Zhenzi, you shouldn't talk to the elder like this. The elder just wanted to think about the whole family from beginning to end. He has never been selfish for a moment!"

"Now that the Great Elder is ill, you are not suitable to handle this matter. I am the only one who can lead the charge. So I am not afraid at all, and you don't have to worry about me, okay?"

It would be a lie to say you're not worried.

Ximen Zhenzi frowned and shook his head, saying, "No, I don't trust you to handle this matter, Xiaofei. Just listen to me and don't solve this matter, okay?"

"And I always feel that there has been someone behind this. Those people who are playing dirty tricks are just messing around! If they want my life, then I will give it to them, but I absolutely don't want you to fight for the Ximen family. You originally had your own life, and you shouldn't have been moved to this deserted place by me. It's all my fault. You should have played your part well instead of coming to me and dying for our family in the end!"

"No! That result is too sad. I won't accept it. So Xiaofei, will you listen to me? Just think of it as me begging you."

Ximen Zhenzi's hand tightly grasped Bai Xiaofei's wrist, and she pleaded with tears in her eyes.

Just when Bai Xiaofei didn't know what to do, he suddenly glanced at the person next to him.

He instantly suppressed his inner panic, and nodded helplessly, "Okay, I promise you, but you have to be obedient and don't mess around, okay? And the Great Elder cares too much about the family, so sometimes he looks more selfish. You absolutely can't, and don't blame him, okay?"

Bai Xiaofei's tone was pleading.

Ximen Zhenzi became soft-hearted after she became pregnant, so she just glanced at the elder beside her and sighed: "Okay, I promise you."

The great elder next to him wanted to say something, but Bai Xiaofei came forward immediately, raised his hand and gently pressed on his wrist.

He shook his head imperceptibly, indicating something, but the words he spoke were inconsistent with his expression.

"Great Elder, since Zhenzi doesn't want me to leave, then I won't leave! I'm really sorry, I can't promise you this."

"Well... then I can only go find someone else. You guys go back and rest!"

The Great Elder nodded, and then watched them leave.

Ximen Zhenzi followed Bai Xiaofei out happily and happened to see Qi Yunxiao standing at the door.

She raised her head and waved her hands: "Xiao Fei will be by my side from now on, so you don't have to continue. Qi Yunxiao, didn't you always say that taking care of me was painful? It's just right, now you can continue to be busy."

The Great Elder shook his head helplessly, and then watched Ximen Zhenzi being led away by Bai Xiaofei.

Qi Yunxiao stood there for a long time without following. Only the Great Elder reacted and hurried forward to urge him: "Hurry up and follow. It will be later. Zhenzi needs you."

Qi Yunxiao was stunned.

The elder explained simply: "I roughly understand what Xiao Fei means. He may still leave secretly next. The task I assigned to you is to protect Zhenzi. The girl has become more delicate since she became pregnant. Therefore, Xiao Fei still plans to leave later."

Or have you decided to go?

Qi Yunxiao was shocked. He asked, "Is this really okay? Aren't you worried that Zhenzi will be stimulated and...?"

"You, it turns out that you are still easily manipulated by her. After all, she grew up next to me. How could I not understand her personality?"

"You, just because you like her so much, that's why you are not on guard against her at all!"

Qi Yunxiao's little thoughts were exposed.

Obviously, the Great Elder no longer resented his kindness to her.

That's good.

"Why don't you go now?"

The Great Elder urged him, and Qi Yunxiao immediately turned around and chased after him.

When he came to his senses, Qi Yunxiao had already arrived at Ximen Zhenzi's yard.

At the same time, Bai Xiaofei just walked out of Ximen Zhenzi's room, turned his head and met his eyes.

Qi Yunxiao frowned and stepped forward: "Where is she?"

"She's asleep. I'll leave Mako to you. Since she doesn't want me to leave, I have to leave quickly while she's asleep. You take good care of her. If you're sure she's calmed down and really needs me, call me via video."

"good."

Qi Yunxiao nodded.

Bai Xiaofei did not waste any time and quickly walked outside. At this time, Lin Yao was waiting there.

"Bai Xi, let's go! We are running out of time. Wait a minute. I'm afraid we won't be able to leave even if we want to!"

"yes."

Lin Yao nodded quickly and quickly caught up.

Bai Xiaofei took the package and went out with Lin Yao, not knowing that the Great Elder had already arranged a group of people and was waiting at the side door.

But with so many people, it’s really not convenient to set off.

Bai Xiaofei frowned and quickly walked to the side of the great elder.

"Grand Elder, I think you should take these people back. Bai Xi has learned a lot now, and he and I are definitely enough. Bringing so many people will attract too much attention, and we won't be able to hide even if we want to."

"But I wouldn't feel at ease if you two went."

"But two people can easily go into battle and bring money with them. If you bring a group of people, it will be too loud and difficult to deal with."

Bai Xiaofei's explanation was also very clear.

After pondering for a moment, the Great Elder finally agreed.

"Okay! Then let's do as you say."

The Great Elder handed over the card in his hand, along with a pair of car keys.

Bai Xiaofei refused again: "You don't need the car keys. Just give me the places covered in the message your eldest lady sent you before, and I will ask about them one by one. It's inconvenient to carry a car with you. I will just take the money."

"Okay..."
