Chapter 854 - 783
Chapter 854: Chapter 783
The moment she walked out, she dared not turn back.
In her heart, she knew she couldn’t always trouble Xingxing, but she had already become accustomed to it.
No matter what happened, it had already become a habit.
That was to seek Xingxing whenever something occurred. Just like this time; when she was at a loss, her first instinct was to find Xingxing.
It turned out she had never thought about finding a solution on her own.
Bai Fei gritted her teeth and took out the Jade Pendant Li Mu had given her.
She ran towards the palace, always having had Xingxing make sacrifices for her; now, she should do something for Xingxing.
Since Xingxing had no news after going to the palace, she had to see what was going on.
When Bai Fei found them, that sister had already shrunk, and Bai Zhi and the others’ space was becoming increasingly smaller.
Yet they were still enduring pain, needing to gasp for air.
The air was getting thinner.
Bai Zhi and Moh Li still hadn’t settled it, which was something that required time.
Fortunately, Bai Wei wasn’t particularly foolish, constantly arguing with them, while Bai Wei thought they might as well directly beat them to a pulp.
Of course, she’d forgotten that she no longer had the ability.
“Bai Wei, there’s no need to say anything further. You’re just trying to buy time, but I’m telling you it’s pointless. Time is running out for you.”
Lady Yue, seeing Bai Wei still searching for something, directly handed over a book from beside her, throwing it at Bai Wei’s feet.
At this point, Bai Fei arrived.
And at the most crucial moment for Moh Li and Bai Zhi,
Li Mu was surprised to see Bai Fei’s arrival, “Feifei, you came.”
After the surprise came great joy, as he hadn’t seen Bai Fei for a long time and missed her dearly.
Bai Fei glanced at Li Mu out of the corner of her eye, noticing his severe dark circles.
Although those made her heart ache, seeing Luoluo being controlled shocked her as she looked at Li Mu in front of her.
“Li Mu, what’s going on? How could you be like this?”
Bai Fei gave Li Mu a fierce glare. Then she walked briskly towards her sister.
“I…” Li Mu then realized what it meant to not be able to explain oneself.
He wanted to explain, but he knew any explanation would be feeble.
“Feifei, if I said I knew nothing from the start, would you believe me?”
Bitterly smiling, Li Mu never expected to face such a situation.
“What do you think?” Bai Fei asked black-faced in return.
She then turned around, “Xingxing, how can I help you? Tell me, please.”
Li Mu was nervous too, but even he didn’t know how to tell her.
“I don’t know.”
Bai Zhi truly didn’t know.
Bai Fei: “…”
“Don’t come in, it’s punishment enough.”
Seeing the already cramped space, Bai Zhi quickly spoke up.
“Xingxing, I want to stand by your side and fight together. I can’t always hide behind you. I didn’t understand before, but now I want to do something for you.”
Bai Zhi wanted to say it was unnecessary, she just wanted to know what Li Mu and the others intended.
“You’re overthinking. I don’t have time for this; Li Mu, just say what you want to do.” Bai Zhi was a bit impatient, just waiting for him to let his guard down.
Bai Fei suddenly rushed inside.
Bai Fei was sincere; Xingxing always sacrificed for her, yet she hadn’t done anything for Xingxing.
What’s more, Xingxing was trapped because of her. So she didn’t hesitate to prepare to break in.
But Li Mu grabbed her. Seeing Bai Fei, he was both surprised and excited, happy because Feifei came for him, right?
“Let me go, Li Mu. I don’t want to see you now. If it weren’t for you, Xingxing wouldn’t be here with me. She wouldn’t be trapped.
Don’t tell me Xingxing and the others being trapped has nothing to do with you. Even if you say it, I won’t believe it.”
Bai Fei wasn’t an idiot; Xingxing and the rest were trapped, but Li Mu and his mother stood unharmed here. His mother was even particularly happy, looking victorious.
If this had nothing to do with Li Mu, she would truly have been foolish.
If not for her, Xingxing wouldn’t be here.
If not for her, Xingxing and Moh Li wouldn’t be trapped now.
It was all her fault.
“You can’t go in; going in means death.”
Li Mu held Bai Fei’s hand tightly, preventing her from entering.
“Isn’t that just perfect? Isn’t it what you wanted?”
Bai Fei suddenly laughed. “Li Mu, how can you be shameless enough to use me?”
It was truly ironic. She thought he was really in trouble, but what was the result?
The result was that her trust harmed Xingxing and Moh Li.
“Look for yourself, there’s not only Xingxing in there but also your father. Regardless of what he did, however wrong he might be, he gave birth to you, raised you, saved your mother. Yet you want him dead?”
How could she love someone like that?
In truth, her brother was wrong; she definitely wouldn’t choose someone like Li Mu, undeserving of a choice from her.
“I didn’t, Feifei. I never intended to involve you all.”
Li Mu truly hadn’t thought about involving Bai Fei.
“Right, you didn’t. It was me overthinking, wanting to bring my family to save you. I understand now.”
Bai Fei shook Li Mu’s hand off and rushed towards the barrier.
Li Mu couldn’t hold on, following her inside instantly.
You could go in, but not out.
This was the formidable aspect of this barrier.
Bai Fei turned around in shock, only to see Li Mu follow her in. In the next moment, he held onto her, taking all the harm upon himself.
“Feifei, even in death, I want to accompany you.”
Bai Fei’s eyes reddened, but she still couldn’t forgive him.
“But I don’t even want to die with you.”
As she said this, she tried to break free from Li Mu’s embrace.
“Cousin, don’t come out. You can’t handle it.”
Bai Zhi saw clearly that Li Mu was using cultivation to shield Bai Fei.
Even though she said not to come inside, they rushed in anyway.
“Li Mu, how could you go in? Are you crazy?”
Lady Yue watched Li Mu enter, bewildered at why she didn’t stop him.
“Mother, you lied about being in trouble, then had me controlled and captured when I returned, subsequently sending a message to Feifei. From the beginning, did you intend to separate us?”
Li Mu indeed was captured upon return, but not by his father, by his mother, and was only released now.
“Yes, she isn’t suitable for you. You should marry someone who can provide assistance.”
“But that’s not what I want!”
Li Mu yelled at Lady Yue, “You say my father wronged you; you say the Queen wronged you; the Empress Dowager wronged you; everyone wronged you. But haven’t you considered that you could be at fault too?
My father, he indeed wronged you, but he never wronged me!”
