Chapter 586 Bai Tong was convinced
Su Nuan immediately corrected herself in her heart, "I'm not jealous, and I'm just trying to pass the blame on others with bad intentions."
The space spirit asked blankly: "What pot?"
Su Nuan sighed secretly, "I have figured out the things between Ling Cang and me now."
"Back then, Ling Cang married me only because he was forced by circumstances; and I insisted on marrying him only to repay his kindness."
"Between us... whether in the past life or this life, there has never been any mutual love."
Her voice softened a bit. "So I hope he'll fall in love with someone else first..."
At this point, she smiled self-deprecatingly, "When we separate like this, the fault is all his."
"You say... am I being a hypocrite and trying to be a saint?"
The Space Spirit was stunned for a moment, and finally stammered, "It's...it's not that serious..."
It hesitated for a moment and added, "If you are willing to be honest with Ling Cang, considering how much he cares about you, I'm afraid he will take the initiative to put the blame on him."
Su Nuan sighed secretly when she heard this, "I dare not say..."
The Space Spirit chuckled, "So there are things you dare not do."
Finally they both fell silent.
Bai Tong was also lost in her own thoughts, and the room became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
I don't know how long it took, but the door was kicked open with a bang.
Su Nuan jumped up in shock and quickly walked to the door, only to see Xiaobai peeking out of the door with a look of grievance on his face.
Bai Tong also came out. She was so frightened when she saw such a big white tiger coming in that she screamed, "Ah——"
Su Nuan quickly turned back to comfort him, "It's okay, Xiaobai is the guardian beast of our Northland."
"It's a picky eater and won't eat humans. Don't worry, don't be afraid."
Bai Tong, "..."
Picky eater? Doesn't eat humans? That sounds weird.
Su Nuan grabbed Xiaobai's ears and dragged him into the yard. "What are you doing?"
Xiaobai hummed and hawed to express that he saw something new on the mountain.
Su Nuan asked in a low voice: "What is it? Can't you bring it back?"
Xiaobai shook his head and even looked up at the flying snow circling in the sky, as if to say that he couldn't bring it back either.
Su Nuan pondered for a moment and said, "You go and watch first. I'll ride Feixue over there later."
Xiaobai shook his head and hummed, wanting to enter the space.
Su Nuan had no choice but to put it away.
When I returned to the room, I saw Bai Tong hiding behind the screen and looking around.
She laughed, "It's gone."
Bai Tong breathed a sigh of relief, "You are so amazing, even Baihu listens to you."
Su Nuan raised her chin proudly and said, "I raised him."
Bai Tong understood, "I see. It looks like it wants to talk to you about something?"
Su Nuan didn't hide it, "It found something strange on the mountain and said it couldn't bring it back, so it asked me to go take a look."
Bai Tong bit his lip and said, "I put some pigs and some vegetables on the mountain, maybe those."
Su Nuan shook her head, "No, if it's pig or vegetables, it will eat it all."
After saying that, she stared at Bai Tong and asked, "You said you released the pigs? Did you transport them all the way here?"
Bai Tong shook her head, "My maid has a special ability. She can put living things in a mysterious place."
Su Nuan tilted her head to look at Bai Tong, "Your maid?"
It's not that I'm suspicious, but I think it's really strange that Bai Tong didn't keep the secret of her personal maid.
If his maid has any special qualities, as her master, he will never tell others about it.
Bai Tong smiled bitterly, "She is my maid, but she is just my mother's spy."
"Mother also said that if I couldn't win the city lord's favor, she would let Kapok take my place."
Su Nuan was really speechless. The Bai family actually dared to plot against Ling Cang like this. When she had time, she would definitely go to her house and turn the table over.
Now, what Su Nuan needs to do is to find the maid Mu Mian first.
"Where is she?"
Bai Tong replied: "We went to the mountains to put our things and then separated. I don't know if she is in the city."
Su Nuan nodded, "What does she look like?"
Bai Tong pointed at her own face and said, "They look 70% similar, but she has phoenix eyes, while I have almond eyes."
Su Nuan went to the table, spread out the paper, and quickly drew a portrait.
"is that so?"
Bai Tong stared at the painting blankly, his fingertips unconsciously pinching into his palm.
She nodded in amazement, "Yes, they are exactly the same."
She originally thought that Su Nuan was just beautiful and had excellent cooking skills.
But the painting in front of me was so lifelike that she could draw it just by listening to the description. How could this be something an ordinary lady could achieve?
She opened her mouth, and suddenly a bitter taste rose in her throat. She suddenly felt like a clown.
Su Nuan rolled up the painting and said, "I'll show it to Xiaoyun and ask him to pay attention to it."
"I'm very interested in Kapok's special ability. Maybe I can steal it."
As she said this, she stared into Bai Tong's eyes.
Bai Tong was neither anxious nor angry, but instead had a calm expression, as if Mu Man was just a stranger to her.
Su Nuan pursed her lips slightly. Is it true that one can only judge a person by his appearance but not by his heart? Is Bai Tong a cold-hearted person by nature?
Bai Tong said, "She can't be snatched away. If she could be snatched away, my mother wouldn't have kept her forever."
She narrowed her eyes and recalled, then said, "I still remember that my wet nurse came to the Bai Mansion when I was three years old."
"Before I was three years old... my mother wasn't very strict with me. It wasn't until Mu Mian, who was the same age as me, came into the mansion that my mother started to be strict with me."
"She always thinks I'm not smart, not clever, and not as capable as Kapok."
Su Nuan was silent for a moment and then asked, "Have you ever thought...your mother's strictness towards you is to protect you?"
Bai Tong was stunned. "Protect me? But why would you protect me through such means?"
Su Nuan analyzed, "Maybe Mu Mian and her mother have your family in their hands. The only way they can prevent Mu Mian from being jealous of you is to make you look clumsy and inferior to her."
Bai Tong's face turned pale as paper. Her lips trembled and she couldn't utter a word of rebuttal for a long time.
Su Nuan felt sorry for her, so she walked over, patted her shoulder, and comforted her: "There are very few mothers in this world who don't love their own children. I don't believe your luck is that bad."
"You just rest here with me. I'm going to go see what's going on in the mountains."
Su Nuan suddenly thought of Su Xia. The mermaid on her side also suddenly appeared. Could it be related to this kapok?
Anyway, after lunch, I will go find Su Xia to see what is going on with the banshee and the treasure over there.
She blew a whistle, snow fell to the ground, and Su Nuan jumped on it nimbly.
Bai Tong stared up at the soaring Su Nuan blankly. An inexplicable thought popped up in her mind, "How great it would be if she were a man!"
Soon, Bai Tong put away her thoughts and thought, if I can't be your love rival, then I will be your sister.
No, we can’t be sisters, we can only be close friends, because if I suggest being sisters, she will definitely misunderstand that I want to steal her man.
