Baiji nodded slightly, "Okay."

The dining table was already filled with dishes. She was invited to sit down and look around, but Fu Yichen was nowhere to be seen. The servant saw Bai Ji's thoughts and replied, "Sir, he should be back soon."

Baiji looked at the food in front of her, her red lips slightly raised. As expected of Fu Yichen, he seemed to be able to arrange everything just right.

Not long after this, the servant's voice was heard outside, "Sir, Miss Bai has arrived."

Fu Yichen said "hmm" in a deep voice, and came to the dining table in formal attire. When he saw Bai Ji, he said, "Congratulations."

When Bai Ji knew that he was saying that she hadn't failed the exam, she twitched her lips. In fact, so many people were paying attention to this matter, which made her feel depressed.

"Thank you. Speaking of which, it's all thanks to Mr. Fu."

Fu Xijie looked at the two of them and started knocking each other crazily with joy.

Bai Ji wanted to say something else, but Fu Yichen sat down calmly and interrupted her, "If you have anything to do, let's talk after dinner first."

"Alright."

Baiji sat down and tasted the food.

As soon as she took it into her mouth, she raised her eyebrows slightly, this dish...

Fu Xijie saw Bai Ji pause and asked with concern: "What's wrong, Master Bai? Doesn't it suit your taste?"

"No."

Bai Ji curled her lips, "I always feel that the taste of this dish is very familiar to me."

It tastes a bit like the food the original owner used to eat in the Bai family mansion. At that time, the original owner was still very favored. There was a cook who had been responsible for the original owner's diet since she was a child. Later, Bai Mu kicked the original owner out of the Bai family. I heard that the original owner and The cook, who had a good relationship with the original owner, was also squeezed out by Bai Manlu and left.

"Really? I haven't heard you say that before." Fu Xijie was a little surprised.

Baiji had been tutoring here before and had eaten at Fu's house for a few days, but she had never said anything about it.

Fu Yichen glanced at the servant next to him, and the servant immediately left. After a while, he brought over a 40-year-old aunt wearing Fu Zhai's black work clothes.

The aunt was dressed in kitchen attire, "Sir, please find me... Miss!"

She suddenly saw Bai Ji sitting in the guest seat with a surprised look on her face.

Bai Ji looked at the aunt in front of her, "Aunt Zhao."

When Aunt Zhao saw Baiji couldn't help but come forward, her eyes were red, "Miss, why are you here? You've lost weight! Did you not eat well?"

She looked up and down Baiji, her eyes filled with distress.

The original owner is also regarded as the most important by Aunt Zhao. Aunt Zhao has no children and regards the original owner as her own.

I heard that when Baiji was kicked out of the Bai family, Aunt Zhao came back from shopping for the Bai family's kitchen and learned about it. She boldly went to Bai's mother to plead for mercy. Unexpectedly, Bai's mother was offended, and even later because of her good relationship with Baiji. Because of this, he had been bullied by the servants who flattered Bai Manlu, and was finally kicked out of the Bai family.

"Aunt Zhao, I'm fine, I'm fine." Bai Ji reached out and wiped away the tears from her eyes.

Fu Xijie was a little surprised when he saw that the two of them knew each other and had a close relationship, "You know each other?"

"Ah."

Bai Ji introduced: "This is Aunt Zhao who always took good care of me when I was in the Bai family. Later, she was forced to leave the Bai family because of some things I did."

"Miss..."

Aunt Zhao looked at her in surprise, "Does the eldest lady know?"

Baiji nodded, "I know."

These things are very clear in the original owner's memory, but the original owner was unable to protect himself at that time and could not take care of others.

Aunt Zhao was moved to tears, "It's none of the eldest lady's business that I left the Bai family. They bullied the eldest lady. How could I keep silent?"

Baiji nodded slightly, "Thank you for your hard work."

Aunt Zhao wiped her tears and said, "I almost forgot that some of you are still eating. It's really rude. Sir, eldest lady and young master, you guys eat first." She patted Bai Ji's hand, "I know that eldest lady is doing well recently. I I feel relieved.”

With that said, he backed away and left.

Fu Yichen and Fu Xijie both knew that Bai Ji had suffered a lot of grievances in the Bai family, so they were concerned about Bai Ji's feelings and didn't ask any more questions.

After the meal, Bai Ji took out a jade pendant from the mustard space. It was an engraved protective shield charm, which could save his life in times of danger.

Bai Ji handed the jade pendant to Fu Xijie, "Wear this jade pendant close to your body. No matter when, if necessary, it may save your life."

Fu Xijie was startled and quickly took it, "What's wrong, Master Bai? Am I turning black now?"

His face was full of trembling, and he was still wondering if he had provoked any dirty things outside recently.

Bai Ji was amused by him, "No, this is just for emergencies. Just wear it like an amulet. Remember not to take it off."

Fu Xijie was slightly startled and looked at the jade pendant given by Bai Ji, "This jade looks to be of the highest quality in terms of luster and texture. Is this what Master Bai gave it to me?"

Baiji nodded, "Well, here you go."

"Can't you take it off even when taking a shower?" Fu Xijie felt that Baiji was too serious and felt a little uneasy.

Baiji: "You can't pick anything."

Fu Xijie felt that the jade pendant Baiji gave him didn't look like an ordinary amulet, "Okay."

He also wanted to ask Baiji something. At this time, Fu Yichen, who had been quiet all this time, suddenly said, "Go do your homework."

"Oh."

Fu Xijie slumped his shoulders. He didn't dare not listen to his uncle's words.

After the young man left, Fu Yichen looked at Bai Ji, "The reason why you gave him the jade pendant must not be simple, right?"

Baiji knew that he had already guessed something, so he said straight to the point, "I was at the filming site today and met the mysterious man I met in the parking lot last time. He came here just to kill me."

When he heard that someone wanted to kill Baiji, Fu Yichen's indifferent eyes narrowed slightly.

"You are hurt?"

Baiji reached out and touched the injured heart, "He was very harsh, but it's okay. There's nothing wrong with him now."

She said: "There are several reasons why he killed me. One is that I killed his junior brother, and the other is because I obstructed them from doing things."

"His junior brother? Are you talking about the person who borrowed his life?"

Fu Yichen was also there at the time, and saw with his own eyes that the man was burned by the samadhi true fire of Baiji.

"Yes, you said you were killed because you were obstructing what they were doing. Does it have anything to do with me?"

Fu Yichen was very knowledgeable and quickly connected everything together.

"Yeah." Baiji nodded.

"..."

Fu Yichen was silent for a while, "This matter has nothing to do with you. They are in the open and we are in the dark. It is still too late to withdraw early while you are not involved in my affairs."

Bai Ji was a little surprised, "You want me to stop getting involved in this matter?"

"This is my business. You don't need to sacrifice too much." Fu Yichen said seriously.

Bai Ji raised his eyebrows, "Are you scared?"

Fu Yichen said calmly, "I'm not afraid."

She didn't understand, "Then why did you stop me from interfering? Are you afraid that I would die?"

Fu Yichen teased and raised his lips, "I won't force people to go to the mountains even though I know there are tigers in them."
