Chapter 195 You Don’t Know What I Said

Bai Yan knew that the other party definitely didn't say this for no reason. Thinking of the relationship between him and Bai Qianxi, the person the other party was talking about couldn't be her, so...

A thought flashed through Bai Yan's mind: if they had offended Ye Beiling... he didn't dare to think about it any further.

"Is there some misunderstanding here, Your Highness? I know why my wife and Yi'er did this. Even if they have the ability, they don't have the courage to do it."

Bai Yan tried his best to refute. Although he didn't know what had happened, he knew that this matter could not be blamed on the Bai family.

While explaining to Ye Beiling, Bai Yan looked at Bai Qianxi, suggesting that she give some clues, as he had no idea what was going on.

However, Bai Qianxi seemed not to notice his gaze at all, and her expression did not fluctuate at all.

Seeing that she really didn't show any expression at all, Bai Yan didn't know what to say in front of Ye Beiling. He could only angrily withdraw his gaze and look at the person in front of him cautiously.

"I really don't know what happened. Your Highness, please explain clearly."

Feeling the aura around the person in front of him getting colder and colder, Bai Yan became more cautious.

At the same time, he felt a little dissatisfied with An and Bai Qianyi. He had told them not to cause trouble in the past few days, so why did Ye Beiling come to them at this time?

Especially now, no matter how Bai Yan tested him, Ye Beiling's expression did not change at all, but the heavy pressure was still coming.

As time passed, Bai Yan found it increasingly difficult to bear the pressure.

Since Ye Beiling couldn't get an answer, Bai Yan could only helplessly order the servant beside him, "Go and invite the lady and the young lady."

The servant ran away carefully, but in the end he brought only Bai Qianyi with him.

"Where is the Madam?" Not seeing An, Bai Yan couldn't help but frown.

The servant could only reply respectfully, "Madam went out early this morning and hasn't come back yet. Why don't I go find Madam and bring her back now?"

"Go ahead." Bai Yan waved his hand and let him go.

After Bai Qianyi came to the front hall, she realized that something was wrong, especially when she saw Bai Qianxi for the first time.

He almost cried out in surprise.

But her reason made her react immediately, and she bowed slightly to Bai Yan, "My daughter greets my father."

Bai Yan nodded slightly and looked at Bai Qianxi, "Let me ask you, have you done anything to offend the Third Prince in the past few days?"

"No, my daughter has been at home these few days and has not even seen His Highness. Everyone in the courtyard can testify to this." Bai Qianyi showed a strange and confused look, which did not seem to be fake.

Hearing this answer, Bai Yan nodded slightly and turned to look at Ye Beiling, "Is there any misunderstanding here, Your Highness?"

"Did I say that she offended me?" Ye Beiling raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Bai Yan with a hint of sarcasm. "You should ask her what she did to Xi'er these past two days?"

"This……"

Bai Yan's face instantly showed some complexity and hesitation, but he still had to obey Ye Beiling's instructions and ask.

"Dad, what are you talking about?"

Facing the questioning gazes of several people, Bai Qianxixi's body trembled slightly, and her delicate little face looked more and more confused.

A few crystal pearls suddenly appeared in the eye sockets, looking so pitiful.

Bai Yan felt a little sorry for her when he saw her like this. After all, she was his favorite daughter, and it seemed that she really knew nothing. Thinking of this, Bai Yan became hesitant again and looked at Ye Beiling carefully. Just when he was about to say what he would do, he saw the other party's impatient eyes.

Just when he didn't know what to do, a report suddenly came from outside the door.

Thirteen is here.

After meeting Ye Beiling, Thirteen returned to his serious look, "Your Highness, I have already found out what you asked me to investigate."

Bai Qianyi, who was standing by, couldn't help but tremble slightly subconsciously when she heard Thirteen speak like this.

She had a bad feeling in her heart as early as when she saw Bai Qianxi appear. Now that she saw Thirteen, the bad feeling in her heart became even stronger.

Could it be...

A guess suddenly flashed through Bai Qianyi's mind, and her little face turned pale. Fortunately, she lowered her head in time to conceal it.

Thirteen was still telling Ye Beiling in detail about the information he had found out about An's hiring a killer to kill someone.

"Just report these directly to Lord Bai."

Ye Beiling stopped Shisan from speaking any further. Bai Yan's face turned pale and cold sweat broke out after hearing Shisan speak like this.

"Your Highness...this...your humble servant...your humble servant didn't know that your humble concubine would..." Bai Yan couldn't help but feel filled with hatred towards An.

Why can't you just bear with it?

Even if you wanted to do it, you should have cleaned up the mess yourself. How could someone find out about it now?

Even though he despised him in his heart, facing Ye Beiling's questioning look, Bai Yan had to put on a dignified and upright appearance.

"If my wife really did something like this, I will not forgive her!"

"With such irrefutable evidence, who else will Lord Bai protect?" Ye Beiling's cold voice sounded.

Bai Qianxi watched all this silently from the side. She didn't expect Ye Beiling to be so quick. Not only did he find out who was the person who plotted against her this time, but he also found the evidence so quickly. She couldn't help but feel touched.

Bai Qianyi's face turned paler and paler. Why was the plan she and her mother discussed exposed so quickly?

Why is this bitch so lucky that so many people can’t kill her!
Countless hatreds surged in Bai Qianyi's heart.

Just as she was daydreaming, she heard Thirteen's words continue, "In addition to investigating these, I also discovered that the person behind the murder seems to be more than just An. It seems that the fourth young lady of your family is also involved. What a pity..."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Bai Qianyi's sharp voice suddenly rang out when she heard Thirteen actually started to detect her, and she realized that she had been too exaggerated.

Bai Qianyi calmed down and softened her tone, "This young man, do you have any misunderstandings? Wu Niang and I have been as close as sisters since childhood. How could I possibly harm her?"

"Besides, my mother has always treated my fifth sister as her own daughter since she was young, and we have always had a good relationship."

Hearing Bai Qianyi's explanation, Bai Qianxi curled the corners of her lips in disdain, but did not say anything and just looked at the other party coldly.

Ye Beiling's breath continued to come from the side. She didn't have the energy to waste time talking to these people now. She just hoped to gain more time to heal her injuries.

Just when the atmosphere in the entire hall was eerie and quiet, the servant who had gone out to look for An finally came back.

An never expected that as soon as she came back, the atmosphere in the entire front hall would be so strangely quiet, especially when she noticed Bai Qianxi following behind Ye Beiling, her pupils couldn't help but shrink.
