Bai Huai lay stiffly on the ground.
How did his father appear so quickly?
"Young master, please get up."
Butler Wei whispered, "Master is angry."
"Bai Huai, what kind of behavior is this!" The Second Master Bai, who had just come out, felt his head buzzing.
Bai Huai, who had been scolded, immediately stood up and hid behind Steward Wei.
Only then did Master Bai apologize to the person accompanying him: "Xiao Yi, I'm sorry, you must have found this amusing. It was my fault for not keeping a close eye on Bai Huai."
This Second Master Bai is the son of Old Master Bai's cousin, a distant relative from a collateral branch.
He is already fifty years old, the same generation as Bai Ningyi, but he looks much older than Bai Ningyi.
"Hmm." Bai Ningyi glanced at Bai Huai with calm eyes.
His gaze was calm and unwavering, as if the white locust tree was nothing to him.
Bai Huai felt as if something cold had brushed against him, and he shivered.
"Um, Xiao Yi, let's go to the VIP room and wait. The auction hasn't started yet." Master Bai awkwardly tried to change the subject.
As for the white locust tree, we'll have to go back and clean it up.
Bai Huai, who was hiding behind Steward Wei, remained silent.
He feared nothing but his father's belt.
After all, his father really went all out!
Although many second and third generation members may be quite scoundrels.
However, the Bai family is one of the most prominent families, and if something is really that outrageous, they will at least discipline the child. Overindulging the child will only lead to the family's rapid decline.
Bai Ningyi responded casually, "Let's go."

"Hmm? Where's Little Yuzu?"
After Si Jing came out, he heard crying not far away.
He glanced at it casually: Oh, it's that notorious scoundrel from the Bai family. Never mind then.
Turning his gaze away, Si Jing took out his phone and sent a WeChat message to Xiao Youzi.
Si Jing: Little Pomelo, where is she?
Sweet Pomelo: Waiting for you at the auction entrance.
After putting away his phone, Si Jing, dressed in a sharp suit, handed the items to the driver: "Go and put them away."
The driver just went to the door to get the keys and didn't see what happened to Xiaoyouzi.
When he returned, Xiaoyouzi was already gone.
I just overheard some gossip when I passed by, saying that the young master of the Bai family was beaten up.
Well done!
Everyone knows that the young master of the Bai family is young but ruthless and can strike with deadly force.
"Yes, young master." After taking the clothes, the driver briefly recounted the gossip he had overheard.
Si Jing nodded: "Okay, I understand."
We arrived at the entrance of the auction house.
There were guards outside the gate; you couldn't get in without an invitation.
That small, pink and white figure was wandering around the doorway.
Fortunately, there are exhibits here, otherwise it would be extremely boring.
I was fortunate enough to see the well-preserved mummified body of a princess from a fallen kingdom, and here happens to be a stone tablet recording the story of her.
Little Yuzu was standing in front of a display case.
The display case has exhibits on top and a large cabinet below, with labels nailed to the top of the cabinet and gold-engraved text on them.
The text is the content of the stone tablet.
It briefly summarizes the life of the princess of Jinluo Kingdom.
Princess Mo Yuanyuan of Jinluo Kingdom was a woman of unparalleled beauty who never married. She was uneducated, licentious, and had hundreds of handsome men in her harem.
When she passed away, twenty of the most handsome men were buried with her, none of whom were her husbands.
That's all the information on the stone tablet. Little Yuzu didn't see anything interesting and ran to another display case.
Inside that display case was a silver bracelet, exactly the same as the one on Mo Yuanyuan's wrist.
Little Yuzi frowned: This bracelet looks unusual, and it's a pair, there's definitely something wrong with it.
Her gaze drifted down and landed on the information board.
Rumor has it that Mo Yuanyuan has countless concubines, but there is one boy she favors the most, who comes from Miao territory.
The boy was fair-skinned and handsome. Because his appearance in Miao ethnic clothing was so gorgeous, Mo Yuanyuan fell in love with him at first sight.
The boy's name was Hezhu, and he was only seventeen years old at the time, while Mo Yuanyuan was only twenty-five.
She promised Hezhu that she would love only him for the rest of her life.
He Zhu then gifted her the Huanzhu Linglong Bracelet, a treasure of the Miao ethnic group.
Unfortunately, Mo Yuanyuan later fell in love with another man and did not keep her promise.
At the age of twenty-six, Mo Yuanyuan died of poisoning.
This passage is problematic no matter how you look at it.
Little Yuzi pondered, "The Miao people's most precious treasure should be a Gu worm, how could it be a bracelet?"
Unless, the poison is inside the bracelet.
Otherwise, Mo Yuanyuan's death would be too strange, since she wasn't in poor health.
"Little Pomelo".
Just as Xiaoyouzi was deep in thought, Sijing's voice came.
Little Yuzu turned around and saw Si Jing.
She said with a beaming smile, "Brother Sijing, you've come at the perfect time! Come and take a look with me!"
Without saying a word, Si Jing leaned closer and asked, "What is this?"
"This is an introduction to He Zhu, Mo Yuanyuan's beloved concubine."
Little Yuzu spoke earnestly from the side, and then told the story of He Zhu and Mo Yuanyuan.
After listening, Si Jing frowned and asked, "So what do you mean?"
"I think there might be something wrong with that silver bracelet, but I can't get my hands on it or open it to take a look," Little Yuzu pouted, looking a little unhappy.
These are exhibits, not for sale. Otherwise, I could buy them and look at them at my leisure. qqxδnew
Si Jing chuckled: "You misunderstand. Apart from that mummified corpse and these stone tablets, all the exhibits here are available for auction."
"Huh?" Little Yuzu's eyes lit up immediately: "Really?"
"Of course, this silver bracelet is an auction item, but today's auction is a charity auction organized by the Bai family."
