Chapter 4: Questioning



The sun was particularly warm that day, and the peonies in the courtyard were in full bloom.

Bai Yinglin packed up her things early in the morning and left her room.

"Miss, are you awake?"

A person with a gentle complexion and a chubby smiling face looks cute and lively.

Bai Yinglin took a look at the maid in front of her, then she retracted her gaze and quickly searched for the person in front of her in her head.

Feng'er? This was the name of the only personal maid in the original body's memory.

The corners of her mouth lifted slightly.

"Feng'er? You've been guarding here all night."

Bai Yinglin's voice is calm and approachable.

"Well, young lady, I've been so worried these days. They all said that you've..." Feng'er looked up at Bai Yinglin, a worried look in her eyes, and raised her lips slightly. "I knew they were talking nonsense. The people in this courtyard are not good people. As long as you come back safely, young lady, it's all good."

Bai Yinglin let down her guard and saw that the person in front of her was looking at her with concern.

"Your young lady is blessed with a long life, how could she die so easily...Okay, Feng'er, you wait for me outside the door, I'll go report to the third aunt first." A trace of murderous intent flashed in Bai Yinglin's eyes, but she quickly returned to her girlish gentleness with a genuine smile on her face.

She stepped over the threshold that seemed low and safe, but in her heart it was actually a high and dangerous area.

In my memory, Bai Yinglin treated the third concubine very respectfully. The people there appeared to be very friendly, but in the end, it was she who ordered people to kill Bai Yinglin. She looked harmless, but in fact she had a heart as cruel as a snake.

Bai Yinglin stepped into the room with great caution.

"Madam Third, the eldest lady is here." A maid deliberately raised her voice and shouted into the house.

Bai Yinglin saw a graceful woman in gorgeous clothes and heavy makeup.

"Oh, Yinglin, where have you been these days? Your aunt and master must be worried." The third aunt's face showed great worry. If others saw it, they would definitely think that this person was kind-hearted and treated other people's children equally.

But in Bai Yinglin's eyes now, this is just the lowest level of white lotus. Her eyes are full of hatred and jealousy, and she wishes she would disappear immediately.

"Third Aunt, I'm sorry for causing you to worry about Yinglin. I feel so indebted to you. I'm here to report... well." The innocent eyes on that touching face make people fall in love with her at first sight.

When the Third Aunt heard this, she was immediately furious.

This isn't a report of peace, it's clearly a demonstration. This brat probably already knew in his heart that I wanted to kill her, so he came here today to demand an explanation. He must be really tired of living.

The Third Aunt, with a pale face, was about to start scolding, but the sound of footsteps coming from the room stopped her thoughts. She put on a wicked smile and twisted her body to walk to the bedroom door.

"Master, why did you get up so early? It's still a while before court starts." The third concubine supported a middle-aged portly man and walked into the hall to sit down.

"Muwan, I couldn't sleep because I heard the noise outside the door, so I got up and came to check on him." Bai Yubin's eyes were full of the third aunt.

Third Aunt Lin Muwan's eyes began to waver, and a hint of guilt appeared on her face.

Seeing this, Bai Yubin turned around and looked, only to find that there was another woman in the room.

"This is……"

Lin Muwan leaned close to Bai Yubin's ear and whispered, "Bai Yinglin."

Hearing this, Bai Yubin's face turned pale, and he looked surprised: "Yinglin, Dad heard that you just returned to the mansion last night. Where have you been these days?"

Bai Yubin's panicked expression and Lin Muwan's performance were all imprinted in Bai Yinglin's eyes.

Lin Muwan's eyes wandered around Bai Yinglin in confusion:

If nothing unexpected happens, this bitch will not return to the mansion. Even if she is lucky and has a long life, it is impossible for her to be without any scars.

"Dad, Yinglin just recovered yesterday. Fortunately, someone saved her, so she was able to return home and reunite with mom and dad." Bai Yinglin smiled.

Bai Yinglin looked at the father in front of her and couldn't help but feel sad for the original owner. It was obvious that he had never worried about her life or death.

Bai Yubin's face was heavy:

"Yinglin, let's not talk about where you've been these days. I see that your body is no different from that of a normal person. Injured? I don't think so." That face was already full of fat, and now because of his anger, it became extremely hideous and weird, which made people feel sick.

"Dad, it seems like you are blaming your daughter for going home." Bai Yinglin sneered in her heart.

I remember what my mother said last night, they all tried their best to find me, but I’m afraid... Ha!

Lin Muwan, who was watching the show from the side, raised the corner of her mouth and spoke in a disgusting tone that made Bai Yinglin feel sick: "Master, how can you say that about Yinglin? She is just a girl. How can she bear the fatigue of being away from home for a few days? It must be hard for her."

"Hmph... a girl? Does she know that she is a girl? She hasn't come home for two days and all night. Who knows what she is doing outside." Bai Yubin glanced at Bai Yinglin with disgust.

Bai Yinglin felt sick when she saw this.

In her memory, Bai Yinglin regarded her father as a god-like being, and believed that it was her fault when she was beaten or punished.

How ridiculous! This Prime Minister's Mansion is such a disgusting and horrible place.

Bai Yinglin raised the corner of his mouth and sneered.

"Father and Third Aunt must be very dissatisfied with me after seeing my hair done. Now that I've returned to this family, the evil in their hearts must be gnawing at your hearts." Bai Yinglin's cold and sharp eyes fell on Lin Muwan and Bai Yubin in front of her.
