Bai Zhaoyi squinted his eyes and looked at Lian Xin who was kneeling in front of him. When he saw that the fear on her face didn't seem to be fake, he said lazily:

"Big sister's plan has been successful, so you came to me in a panic."

I think Lian Xin must have witnessed the whole process of Bai Yanci changing her face, so she was so frightened that she looked like this.

Lian Xin's face was pale and her lips couldn't stop trembling. There was a flash of fear in her eyes and she cried:

"Yes, the eldest lady has become Xu Yujiao now. This slave is really afraid and so she came to the third lady for help. She also asked the third lady to show her a clear path."

Lian Xin knelt on the ground and cried so hard that her whole body was shaking.

Bai Zhaoyi curled the corners of his mouth, but there was no warmth in his eyes, and said calmly:

"Since everything is going well for eldest sister, you just stay in Yanran Courtyard. If you run out like this and make your own decisions, how can eldest sister let your family go if she finds out?"

Lian Xin shuddered and raised her head in disbelief to look at the cold-looking girl in front of her. The blood in her body seemed to have solidified again.

Miss San means...

Do you want to go back to that "Bai Yanci" who is neither a human nor a ghost?Her parents and relatives will...

Doesn't the Third Miss not know that today's "Bai Yan Ci" is no longer the Bai Yan Ci of the past? What kind of situation will she face when she returns?

Lian Xin held onto the toes of Bai Zhaoyi's shoes with trembling hands, her face full of pleading, she couldn't stop shaking her head and said:

"I can't go back, madam, they will kill me! I know that I was obsessed with it and disobeyed the third lady's order and did something wrong, but I promise that it won't happen again! Please have mercy on me, lady."

Bai Zhaoyi gently lifted up Lian Xin who was kneeling on the ground, held her hand and comforted her softly:

"Silly Lianxin, it's too late for my mother to need you now, so how can she kill you? Everyone knows that you are the maid who has been by Big Sister's side for many years. Only with your status as Big Sister can you be secure."

"What's more, they need someone of their own to monitor every move of "Bai Yanci" today. You are naturally the most suitable candidate."

The persistence in Lian Xin's eyes softened slightly, and what the third young lady said was not unreasonable.As long as I still have value, Madam and Miss will not abandon me easily.

Moreover, Bai Yanci is now alive as Xu Yujiao. Although this is a move by the third lady, she still wants Bai Yanci to die.

How could she leave with peace of mind when Bai Yanci was still alive?

Bai Zhaoyi's red lips raised slightly, and she looked at Lian Xin's changing expression with satisfaction. It seemed that she had listened to her words.

"Third Miss, I understand, I have been out for a long time. To avoid Madam and Miss' suspicion, I will leave first."

Lian Xin raised her sleeves and wiped the tears on her face carelessly. She bowed to Bai Zhaoyi and walked out firmly.

On the other side, Bai Lishi was obviously too frightened. She developed a high fever that night and kept mumbling. Xiao Tao had no choice but to run to notify Mrs. Chen.

"Mom! Sister! No--"

"Don't be like this, my face, my face..."

Mrs. Chen felt distressed and sat beside Bai Lishi's bed, watching her little daughter sweating profusely from being frightened by the nightmare, and kept wiping her sweat away with a handkerchief.

"Shi'er, be good. Mom is here, don't be afraid."

Mrs. Chen turned her head and angrily scolded the servants and maids who were standing in a circle:

"How do you serve the second young lady! It must be because my wife doesn't come here often on weekdays, so you are lazy and don't serve the second young lady properly!"

Xiao Tao was the first to kneel down, shaking her head with a pale face and saying:

"Madam Mingjian, the slaves dare not be careless with the second young lady. Today, after the second young lady came back from Yanran Courtyard, she started talking nonsense as if she was greatly stimulated. In the evening, she even developed a high fever. The slaves don't know what happened. .”

Xiaotao hurriedly lowered her head, feeling a faint panic rising in her heart. The young lady kept mumbling about her face.

Whose face is it?

Mrs. Chen's expression froze, and she looked at her second daughter, who was lying on the bed with hot cheeks, with a complicated expression. Shi'er must have been frightened to death by what happened in the afternoon.

She never thought that she was such a partial mother. Ci'er and Shi'er were both her daughters, and the palms and backs of her hands were all flesh.

How could she leave Ci Er alone?

Mrs. Chen didn't realize at all that her heart had long been towards her eldest daughter, and Bai Yanci was the palm of her hand.

It was the palm of her hand that she would subconsciously clenched to protect when in danger.

With a bit of heartache in her eyes, Mrs. Chen stretched out her hand to help Bai Lishi change into another ice handkerchief.

Looking at this face that was very similar to Bai Yanci, she murmured in a daze:

"Shi'er, don't blame mother. Mother can't let your sister marry as a concubine in the Sun Mansion and ignore it. You are different from Ci'er. You can marry to the Third Prince's Mansion only when you are old enough, but your sister has nothing but mother. ”

"Even your marriage should have belonged to your sister, but you took it from her."

Bai Lishi heard this sentence in a daze, and forced herself to open her eyes. Her throat had been burning for so long that she could not say a word.

Mrs. Chen looked at Bai Lishi with some surprise, and quickly touched her cheek and asked, "Shi'er, you're awake, do you feel better?"

Bai Lishi raised her finger and pointed at her throat. Mrs. Chen quickly poured a glass of warm water and carefully fed Bai Lishi to drink it.

After drinking a glass of warm water, Bai Li Shi felt that he was alive again. His eyes fell on Chen's reddish eyes again, and he asked with a somewhat complicated expression:

"Do you really think your daughter has taken advantage of your sister?"

Mrs. Chen was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Bai Lishi to hear this sentence, and she didn't know how to answer it for a moment.

Bai Lishi looked at Mr. Chen's sudden silence, her heart felt even more sour, and tears slowly rose in her eyes:

"Why is mother always so partial? Mother clearly knows that her daughter doesn't like the third prince, and this marriage was never what her daughter wanted. Doesn't mother know that there is someone else that her daughter really wants to marry?"

Bai Lishi looked at Chen with some disappointment. It wasn't that she couldn't feel her mother's favoritism towards her sister over the years, but she had always been a big-hearted person so she could just pretend she didn't know it.

What Chen and Bai Yanci did today really scared her. It was a living person whose face was peeled off!

But when her fever persisted, Chen still felt sorry for her sister without any limit.

No one had ever asked her if she wanted to marry His Highness the Third Prince. If her sister hadn't had such a scandal, how could she have been promised to the Third Prince?

In the end, it was her, Bai Lishi, who took over her sister's position.

A look of panic flashed in Chen's eyes, she held Bai Lishi's fingertips and said awkwardly:

"Mother...mother didn't mean that."
