Chapter 1671 “Framed (5)”
Those responsible for guarding the place immediately got all fearful in their faces: “Miss, how are we going to report this to the chief?”
There’s another thing he didn’t say though…
If it wasn’t for the big lady temporarily removing them from here then it wouldn’t have been possible for the Divine God Pill to go missing in the first place. At least not without them noticing beforehand at someone sneaking into the altar room and leaving them blindsided….
Lotus glared hard at the group in front of herself: “Just shut up and follow me, we’re going to retrieve the Divine God Pill right now!”Originally the group that’s full of panicking adults gradually calmed down after hearing her words, What?! The big lady knows where the pill is?
Ignoring the strange looks coming her way, Lotus went ahead to leave for the inner courtyard where she assumed the thief resides.
……
Guest room.
Holding a bowl of soup in hand, Chu Yi Yi carefully spoon fed the content to the young lad across from herself.
“Yi Yi, my hands are not a problem, I can drink it by myself….” This of course embarrassed Bai Xiao who never had such great treatment from the opposite sex.
“No, that won’t do at all. Bai Yan is not around right now so I must take good care of you.” Chu Yi Yi’s eyes flashed with gleeful light as they flickered shyly away from his gaze, “You need to drink this up okay….”Likewise, Bai Xiao also flared up into a flushed red hue along his cheeks due to their close contact. He could tell how awkward and intimate their current pose appeared, even so, he didn’t reject the kindness.
Bang!
Just then as the pair were going through their moment, the door to the room suddenly got slammed open by a pair of feministic hands.
Startled in the fashion of a cat having its tailed stepped upon, Chu Yi Yi swiftly dropped the content in her hand and stepped in between the unwelcomed people and her crush. “What are you doing here?”
Standing at the door was a lady wearing a peach colored dress, and behind her was a line of guards that has surrounded the room in a circling formation.
“Go, knab this thief for me!” Cocking her chin high, Snow Lotus ignored that question and directly gave the order.
“Yes, Milady!” The leading guards rushed forward, giving no care for anything else.
Peng!
Bai Xiao always knew this moment would come so he didn’t get scared, rather he leaned down and grabbed the dropped bowl and threw it at the rude bitch.
“Get lost!” He’s got plenty of practice in the past in the Bai House so this behavior wasn’t anything new, he merely returned to his roots.
When has Lotus ever been treated like so? Having a bowl that’s been smothered with soup thrown in her face? HA! The very fact that she was clueless enough to get hit showed how dense this lady was at heart.
Shouting aloud in an irate manner: “Bai Xiao! How dare you throw my family’s own stuff at me?! You are a thief, now I got proof so you can forget about escaping the blame! But as long as you return the Divine God Pill then I will spare you a painful death!”
Chu Yi Yi now understood why this lady would come barging in. Raising a sneering smirk: “Instead of going to look for the thief after losing something, you come and blame us? Do you take us for fools?”
“You…” Snow Lotus glared at the Holy Land princess, “Nothing happened until you came into my home, who else could’ve done the theft then huh?! I bet its you who did the thieving!”
Puffing up her chest to taunt the other rude girl, Chu Yi Yi never cowers before a challenge, especially when she’s being called a thief when she never did it. “I, Chu Yi Yi, will never deny doing something if it’s done by my own hands. Don’t go accusing me of just anything. Although I don’t know what that whatever Divine God Pill can do, but if it’s an alchemic product then I can get some at any time I want, why should I go steal it from your household?”
