Chapter 3 I'm Just Bait

"What?" Cheng Shaozhi's face showed shock, which moved from one to the other. Looking at the clenched fists of the man next to him, he couldn't help but shrink his neck.

The dignified Third Prince Ye Beiyi was actually molested by the daughter of a fourth-rank minor official?

"Or, for the sake of ambergris, you would just bear with it a little?" Cheng Shaozhi whispered to the man, unable to stop the look of wanting to watch a good show on his face.

"You won't?" Bai Qianxi blinked her eyes. Seeing the man's aura getting colder and colder, she shrugged helplessly, looking magnanimous. "Forget it. I'm not the kind of person who forces others to do things against their will. Let's change the conditions! As long as you can keep me safe within a year, it'll be fine! After a year, we can go our separate ways. How about that?"

Cheng Shaozhi naturally didn't dare to offend the man again. Hearing this, he smiled heartily.

"This condition is good, it's just one year of safety, simple!"

When the time comes, give her some silver, which will be enough to make up for the Bai family's partial supplies. A girl who lives in seclusion will definitely not cause any major trouble, so protecting her safety will naturally be a simple matter.

Thinking this way, Cheng Shaozhi continued to say to Bai Qianxi, "I agree to the conditions, so Miss Bai Wu, should you take out the ambergris?"

"My condition is that only if the guy next to Master Cheng agrees! After all, he is the one who really makes the decision between the two of you!" Bai Qianxi said affirmatively, her eyes bright, but there was always a sense of mystery that made people unable to guess.

But when she spoke, Cheng Shaozhi's outstretched hand suddenly froze, and he turned back to look at the man in surprise, as if looking for some backbone.

The man was as cold and arrogant as usual, with his eyes showing no joy or anger.

Suddenly, his body moved slightly, and he came to Bai Qianxi as fast as the wind, and his slender and bony hand reached out to her neck.

Bai Qianxi curled up the corner of her mouth into an imperceptible smile, then quickly stepped back, only to find that the pendant that was originally worn around her neck had fallen into the man's hands.

"This... this is... ambergris?" Cheng Shaozhi's eyes widened when he saw clearly what was in the man's hand.

"I've already got the things, and it seems that you have no bargaining chips to negotiate! I won't bother you anymore!" Ye Beiyi's low and magnetic voice sounded, and then he turned around and prepared to leave.

Bai Qianxi chuckled, and her graceful voice sounded again, "It seems that you only know that thing is ambergris, but you don't know that ambergris is divided into yin and yang. The most yin side is called dragon tail wood, and the most yang side is ambergris. And I am the only one who can separate the two spiritual medicines!"

The two men paused, Ye Beiyi turned around, the coldness of his whole body was about to burst out, and the dangerous aura was clearly revealed.

Bai Qianxi seemed to feel nothing, pretending to be aggrieved, "Sir, why are you looking at me like that? I just want to find a backer and live a stable life. It's just a piece of cake for you, but the ambergris is a good medicine for me. It's the only thing my mother left me!"

Although half of Bai Qinxi's face was covered with scars, her eyes were clear and lively. Coupled with the deep feelings she spoke, Cheng Shaozhi immediately nodded in approval and said to the man.

"I think there's nothing wrong with what she said! Why not just agree to her?"

"Look, how insightful Master Cheng is!" Bai Qianxi said exaggeratedly.

Ye Beiyi said coldly, "I think it would be easier to force you to hand over the method!"

Bai Qianxi laughed when she heard this, then she moved closer to the man with a calm face and said, "You can also try to see if I will tell you what you want before I die!"

"It's just... I can wait for ten days or half a month, but I don't know if your patient can wait!"

Bai Qianxi always had a smile on her face and looked well-behaved, but her words were full of threats.

Cheng Shaozhi on the side couldn't help but take a breath. After all, the last person who dared to talk to him like this had been reincarnated!
But she didn't expect the man to just frown, staring at her with his deep eyes. She didn't dodge or show any fear for a long time. She couldn't help but feel a little strange in her heart, and finally she opened her mouth, "When does it start?"

"Three days later!" Bai Qianxi smiled, knowing that he had compromised, and quickly replied, "The separation process consumes a lot of energy. You can see that I am covered in wounds now, and I can't bear the separation of the ambergris at all!"

"I see you are very energetic now! You were even more energetic when you beat someone just now!"

"Ahem... ahem... you also know that it's better to lose in person than in momentum. Those only require some physical strength, but separating drugs requires concentration and endurance." "It's better this way. If you dare to cheat, you will die in three days!" Ye Beiyi said, and winked at Cheng Shaozhi

Then Cheng Shaozhi understood what he meant and walked quickly towards Bai Yan's direction.

After a while, he ran back and said to Bai Qianxi with a sly smile, "My grandfather's birthday will be in seven days. I just informed Lord Bai that I will definitely take you to attend it! Miss Bai Wu, you must take good care of your injuries!"

Bai Qianxi was stunned for a moment, then realized that this was using the name of the Taiwei Mansion to buy her a few days of peace and recuperation!

"Thank you!" Bai Qianxi thanked.

"I'll send someone to pick you up in three days, Yubei, my name!"

After Ye Beiyi finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Bai Qianxi watched their backs as they left, put away the smile on her face, and touched her neck which was red from the necklace.

She deliberately touched her heart several times whenever she mentioned ambergris, just to give him a hint, and his brain did not disappoint her!

But what disappointed her even more was his physique or something belonging to him.

When she first approached him, she felt the pain in her back ease a little. In order to verify whether it was related to him, she tried to contact him, but this man was cold and dangerous. She had no choice but to deliberately act as bait and let her personally take off the ambergris around her neck.

Unexpectedly, contact with him could actually speed up her recovery!
Of course, she did not find these incredible. After all, she had supernatural powers in the end times of her previous life. Her blood was not only immune to all poisons, but could also serve as a medicine to treat all kinds of poisons.

But what surprised her was that she learned from the original owner's memory that the original owner also had it, but it was her mother's instructions when she was a child, and she had never told anyone else!

With the same physique, she has now come back to life. I wonder if it is a coincidence or fate!

Bai Qianxi suppressed her emotions, looked in the direction of Bai Qianyi in the distance, unable to hide her sharpness, and went straight back to her own yard.

The next day, the sun was shining brightly, and the bright sunlight poured into the house through the window. Bai Qianxi slowly opened her eyes, stretched, opened the window, and a cold breath hit her face, waking her up instantly.

She closed the window again and sat down in front of the bronze mirror.

She has fair skin and picturesque eyes and eyebrows, but unfortunately half of her face is covered with burn scars. If she could recover, she would definitely be a rare and stunning beauty.

Bai Qianxi stroked her cheek and murmured to herself, "Although the scar is deep, three months should be enough! I just don't know if it will heal faster if she can stay with Yu Bei more often!"

Thinking about it, she shook her head again. This was an old injury, so it shouldn't happen. What's more, not to mention that the man's status was higher than that of the general, he himself was dangerous everywhere. If she had nothing to do in the future, she should stay away from this kind of person!
Bai Qianxi made up her mind, then stood up, took off her clothes, and checked her wound.

There was a bang and the dormitory door was kicked open.

"Bai Qianxi, how dare you bully Yier! You..." A voice with a hint of youthfulness in its anger sounded.

Bai Qianxi quickly put on her coat, but the man still saw half of her back.

There were scars all over her back, a mixture of old and new wounds. Just looking at the skin, you would never imagine that this was a woman's back.

This also made the young man who originally came to collect debts for Bai Qianyi widen his eyes in disbelief, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Bai Qianxi put her clothes back on and slowly sat down on the chair, her eyes cold, "What? Third Master Bai, haven't you seen enough?"
