Chapter 1514 “Punishment for a Thief (2)”
“What are you talking about?” Chai Moon’s body shuddered at the accusation. She’s very much afraid and tries to hide it with that forced smile, “I really don’t understand what you mean, what pill? I don’t know…”
Not buying it at all, Bai Yan snickers a laugh in retort: “Those Dan pills were refined by me so don’t try to play me. I originally wanted to give it to my grandfather as a surprise birthday gift back then, but that didn’t happen because of what transpired with the Bai Clan. I worried for Yi Yi’s wellbeing so I left it all to her after I left.”
Alchemic Dan pills are good stuff all around, but if ones too greedy and consumes too much at once then the effects would undoubtedly come back to bite one in the ass by making them have an unstable foundation. This important bit was obviously related to Bai Yi Yi prior to Bai Yan’s departure back then, therefore she’s not worried about her foster sister consuming all the pills at once. Furthermore, she could clearly tell how unstable Wen Fei Fei’s strength was in her earlier attack, thus reaffirming her suspicion.
“Brother Shan.” Chai Moon didn’t confront the girl and instead turns to her own husband for help using that tearful face. “I only wanted to do what’s right as Yan’er’s stepmother by keeping her things safe, I didn’t think I would be taken as a thief…”The woman’s act was truly award winning. As she cried to play her role, Chai Moon actually evolved into a sad sobbing laugh like someone that’s spelling their emotions from the heart: “If I really wanted to connive after riches then I would’ve taken your money back then, why did I not take a cent? I would rather raise Fei Fei on my own than to take other’s money! You have to believe me Brother Shan, I’ve been with you for so long, how could I have kept something so valuable hidden from your eyes?”
“I know Yan’er blames me for being with you. I know it, and I’m willing to leave if she wishes of me, but I can’t accept being called a thief after trying so hard to do the right thing!”
After spouting all that, Chai Moon immediately began to head towards the doorway to leave with her daughter in tow. Her pace was firm and unquestionable based on how decisive they were. As a result of this picture, Wen Shan the coward promptly got all guilt in the face for being so indecisive.
“Wait Moon’er, the ones who need to go isn’t you or our daughter.” Cold in his voice, the man speaks with a stern voice like he’s made up his mind.
Halting in her steps right after the sentence, Chai Moon swings around like a hopeful woman waiting for her man to whisk herself off the ground like a princess being taken by a prince.
“Yan’er,” Wen Shan puts on a disappointed face at his own daughter, “I don’t know why you are so adamant about accepting them, but I must tell you your stepmother is not what you think. Back in the beginning after I made the mistake, I immediately wanted to make it up to her by offering two million dollars as compensation. Yet do you know; she refused the money…”
“What’s more… how could I not be aware of your ability in alchemy back then? I would’ve surely known if that’s the case, but I didn’t. Even if you want to frame her, you should at the very least find a better excuse. I’m very disappointed in you.”Those words were coming straight from the man’s heart. He’s honestly unable to comprehend why Bai Yan would turn out so vicious in his view compared to the lovely and well-behaved daughter from his memory.
Who exactly taught her into this after ten years away from home?
Bai Yan coldly glared back at this coward: “You better keep your mouth shut in front of me! Or else…. I don’t mind removing you!”
This time she’s not kidding, she really would remove him from the picture if he doesn’t close that mouth of his. However, the threat only made Wen Shan even more furious.
“Wen Yan! I’m your father, how dare you talk to me like that?”
