With a provocative smile, Bai Xinrou brushed past Bai Qianmo and tried to leave.
"Using underhanded methods to control people's hearts, do you really think it's a long-term solution? Little do you know that the higher you climb, the harder you'll fall!"
Bai Xinrou shuddered and glared fiercely at Bai Qianmo.
"I know you're just jealous of me. You've been jealous of how much my parents love me since I was little. Now that you've grown up, you think you're superior to me? Let me tell you, never!"
After saying that, Bai Xinrou turned and left in a hurry.
He appeared calm, but was inwardly filled with anxiety.
What did Bai Qianmo mean by saying that? Did she know that Elder Bai had been poisoned by a curse?
No, that's impossible!
That person said that very few people in the world would know about the existence of the Sleeping Gu, so how could Bai Qianmo possibly know?
She must be overthinking it, that must be it!
After Bai Xinrou left the rooftop, Bai Qianmo did not rush to leave.
She walked to the edge of the rooftop, feeling the biting north wind and the chill penetrating her skin.
But I felt unusually irritable and depressed.
What she feared most was that this disaster for the entire Bai family was caused by her!
If, as she suspected, something were to happen to her grandfather, she would never be able to forgive herself for the rest of her life.
late at night
Mr. Bai returned to the Bai family's old house.
Bai Kangyan, Han Songyan, and Bai Luoyu returned to Longxi Garden.
Bai Xinrou returned with Elder Bai, who instructed Xu Hualan to prepare a courtyard for her to live in.
"How is Aunt Zhang doing?" Xu Hualan asked Bai Qianmo when she had some free time.
"The wound has been treated, but due to excessive blood loss, you will need to stay in the hospital for a while."
Xu Hualan sighed, "I never expected the Bai family to encounter such a distressing situation. We know that Bai Xinrou is not a good person and that her purpose in coming to the Bai family is impure, but the old man is protecting her, so we can't just kick her out."
Bai Qianmo reached out and grasped Xu Hualan's hand: "Aunt, please take good care of Grandpa these next few days. Aunt Zhang won't be able to leave the hospital anytime soon. If you can't, please contact Aunt Zhao and see if she can come and help out for a while."
“I’ll take care of things at home, so don’t worry too much. Your grandfather’s condition is already enough to trouble you. I just heard from your uncle that your grandfather has been given a sleep-inducing curse. Is that true?”
Bai Qianmo nodded: "We have no better way than to find the person who cast the Gu poison and use their heart's blood as a medicinal ingredient to remove it. So, it's not necessarily a bad thing for Bai Xinrou to stay in the Bai family, because she is the only one who is connected to the other party."
Xu Hualan understood Bai Qianmo's thoughts.
"The old man is asking Bai Xinrou to bring Zhang Cuiyan over to stay tomorrow, so things are probably going to get a little unsettled at home."
"Ignore them for now. Finding the medicine to save Grandpa is the most important thing right now."
"I see!"
