Chapter 270 Divergence (1/2)

Mrs. Baili popped up in the ancient castle of Modu City from nowhere, and no one knew where she came from.

Xia Nuan, Baili and his fellows had been waiting for Mrs. Bali for a while. The latter was lying on the bed, surrounded by curtains. Two female guards stood on both sides of the bed solemnly. They were tall, unfriendly and looked formidable.

Even Baili was acting respectfully.

Looking at Xia Nuan who was so clam, Baili had the abomination in his eyes and couldn’t help snoring. In contrast, Xia Nuan smiled and nodded to him. Seeing Xian Nuan’s satisfaction, Baili felt more resentful.

“Baili, I heard that you were jailed. Who did this to you?” A weak and old voice broke the tranquility.

Baili glanced at Xia Nuan resentfully and said, “You’re looking at her. She might think she is a member of Yuezhao Organization. But she just pretended to be one in order to achieve her purposes. She abused your power to lure us to a wasteland and imprisoned us…”

He told Mrs. Baili the details of the incident. Mrs. Baili only listened silently, showing no response or any sign of anger.

“Madam, in order to cover Ye Sichen, Xia Nuan faked your jade and mobilized the members of Yuezhao Organization to disobey its rules. Now she still dares come here shamelessly, not only to continue to deceive us, but also to deceive you!”

After hearing his words, Mrs. Baili said slowly, “Xia Nuan, is what Baili said true?”

Xia Nuan took a step forward, “Madam, it is true that I imprisoned him. Because sometimes he likes to do things based on his own subjective consciousness. He did something wrong, but he continued his mistake without taking my advice. I had no choice but to imprison him for a few days. However, I let him go in the end. If I really want to kill him, how could he stand in front of you?”

“Nonsense! You imprisoned me to help Ye Sichen get rid of the Allies’ wanted poster and arrest.” Baili retorted her with a little anger.

“Shut up and listen to the Madam.” The female guard interrupted him angrily.

He had to stop talking and shut up.

The female guard opened the curtain—Mrs. Baili in black silk sat on the bed. She supported her forehead with one hand, showing a sense of weak beauty. She asked as her tone combined with special laziness, “Come closer. Let me have a look at you.”

Xia Nuan walked forward again.

Mrs. Baili observed Xia Nuan from head to toe with her narrow eyes. Xia Nuan also stared at Mrs. Baili.

A quick sadness disappeared in Mrs. Baili’s eyes and they became sharp again, “You’re Xia Nuan?”

“Yes, Madam. I’m Xia Nuan, also a member of Yuezhao Organization.” Xia Nuan said.

“How can you prove it?” Mrs. Baili asked Xia Nuan doubtfully.

Xia Nuan opened her sleeves and exposed her arm, on which the crescent moon-shaped cinnabar mole attracted Mrs. Baili at once. Mrs. Baili couldn’t help but tremble her body. She stared at that cinnabar mole with an even more sorrowful expression.

“All this time, Mr. Baili knew I have this cinnabar mole on my arm. It stuck with me since I was born. But he chose to neglect it and fight against me. I was forced to treat him like this, to teach him a lesson, nothing personal. However, the hostility he holds toward me is one hundred percent true.”

Xia Nuan’s words agitated Baili, “Nonsense. Your cinnabar mole is fake. Ye Sichen burned it on your arm to mislead us. It’s a deceptive trick!”

“Baili, shut up.” Mrs. Baili reproached him, staring at Xia Nuan all the time.

Xia Nuan sensed hope.

She had heard from Baili that Mrs. Baili had a missing daughter whose arm got a crescent cinnabar mole. What a coincidence that her arm also had a cinnabar mole, almost identical with that of Mrs. Baili’s missing daughter. By taking advantage of this, she wanted to gain Mrs. Baili’s favorable impression and trust.

Baili got a little chagrin, “Madam, you can’t be deceived by her. She is cheating you. The situation was that I kidnapped her for some reason. But she was Ye Sichen’s woman. Getting the news, Ye Sichen fabricated the story that she had joined Yuezhao Organization to save her…”

“Baili, you will be punished severely by the complete violation of Yuezhao Organization’s rule.” Mrs. Baili said with rage. After the words left her lips, two tall men in black hustled Baili out, dragging his arms.

Baili was not happy to be treated like this. But before he could speak again, his mouth was covered, and then his eyes. He could only see the darkness.

Mrs. Baili put forth her hands and looked at Xia Nuan kindly, “Xia Nuan, come here.”
