“Pfft..” Bai Miaomiao could not help but laugh out loud. She thought to herself. “Why have I only just realized how interesting my fourth sister-in-law is?”

While Bai Miaomiao found Luo Yun’s words amusing, Bai Caiying clearly did not think the same. She could barely keep her face straight. After so many years, she had never been rendered speechless by anyone. Just as she was about to scold her, she saw Bai Qihan’s serious face. She swallowed back the words she was planning on saying, straightened her neck, and then said, “I’m just reminding you for your sake. If you don’t understand, then forget it. I don’t want to waste my time here any longer.”

“Aunt, Yun’er is still young. We can talk about this later.” Bai Qihan smiled faintly.

Although he was smiling, there was not a hint of a smile in his eyes. Things were different now, and Bai Qihan was no longer the helpless child who had his parents killed and was bullied by others. Bai Caiying knew this very well, so she could only suppress her anger.

Butler Zhu Yi came down from upstairs at this time. He saw Luo Yun and said, “Fourth madam, the old master invites you over.”

Luo Yun pointed at herself. Me alone?

Zhu Yi looked like he was in his fifties or sixties. He had a serious expression on his face, and there was not a trace of a smile on his face. He reached out his hand to Luo Yun and said, “If you would be so kind.”

Bai Qihan looked at her and gave her an encouraging look.

The old master of the Bai family was a person who could not be underestimated. He was decisive and ruthless. He had three sons and one daughter in his life. Over the years, he slowly handed over his power to the younger generation. And Bai Qihan was undoubtedly the most outstanding of his generation. Moreover, Bai Qihan was still hiding a lot.

Luo Yun suppressed her emotions and reached out to knock on the door of the study. After knocking, she heard a dignified male voice coming from inside, “Come in.”

She pushed the door open and entered. She saw a white-haired, dignified old man sitting in a vintage-style study. He was wearing a white Chinese robe and looked like a person from the previous century.

“Sit.” Old Master Bai pointed at the chair in front of him and said in a deep voice.

Luo Yun compliantly sat down.

“I asked you to come here because little fourth does not tell the truth. He only knows how to avoid me.” Old Master Bai leaned back in his chair and said slowly, “I heard you were injured recently; what happened?”

Luo Yun’s heart turned cold.

“Be honest and tell grandpa, did little fourth treat you badly?” People who had been in power for a long time, even if they spoke in a gentle manner, exuded an aura of oppression.

“I was muddle-headed.” Luo Yun admitted her mistake decisively.

“Oh?” Old Master Bai raised an eyebrow. “Tell me, what do you mean by you saying you were muddle-headed? ”

“I was careless in making friends. I made a lapse in judgment with regard to their characters.” Luo Yun raised her head and looked straight into Old Master Bai’s eyes. She did not avoid his gaze as she spoke. “My friend did something wrong. However, because of our many years of friendship, I wanted to let him off, and that led me to have an argument with Bai Qihan. In the process, I accidentally injured myself. However, I have already recognized my mistake, and I also approve of Bai Qihan’s handling of the matter. I have no objections.” When she said this, her logic and words were clear.

After a pause, she added, “I married into the Bai family, so I should have looked at the problem from the perspective of the Bai family and my husband first. I was foolish.”

It was obvious that Old Master Bai was not really concerned about whether she was injured or not. He was only concerned about whether the other party’s actions would endanger the interests of the Bai family.

As expected, Old Master Bai’s expression became even gentler as soon as she finished speaking.

“Are you getting along well with little fourth?” Old Master Bai seemed to be a loving grandfather who really cared about his grandson. “Due to the accident that he had been in when he was young, little fourth’s life has been hard, so he does not like to talk. I hope that you can be more tolerant of him.”

“Bai Qihan is indeed a man of few words, but he cares for me very much.” Luo Yun said sincerely, “He’s a very sincere, responsible, and gentle person. ”

“It’s good that you think that way.” Old Master Bai wanted to stand up, but he suddenly felt a pain in his heart at that moment. His face turned pale, and he was about to call for help when he suddenly collapsed to the ground the very next second.

Luo Yun immediately got up from her chair. Old Master Bai was probably of quite some age and had a weak heart, making him easily susceptible to shock. She stretched out her hand to check if Old Master Bai was still alive. Fortunately, he was still breathing. She then touched his carotid artery. Ten seconds later, she could no longer feel a heartbeat. Old Master Bai’s heart had stopped beating.

Luo Yun immediately clenched her fists and struck at the lower part of Old Master Bai’s sternum.

After the first time, she did not feel a pulse.

She tried again, but there was still nothing.

The door suddenly opened when she struck his sternum for the third time.

A sharp female voice rang throughout the room. “Ah! What are you doing?!”

Luo Yun did not have time to identify who it was. She had to focus on CPR right now and could not divert her attention to anything else.
