323 Bai Bing Wen (2/2)

”Why do you care so much? Isn't she just a prisoner... and an old one?!” Bai Beng Wen asked without beating around the bush. He didn't even bother to correct the way Rong Qiu addressed him.

Rong Qiu tried to maintain his calmness, but what he said really made Rong Qiu mad. How could Bai Bing Wen not see Rong Qiu's livid expression? He paid attention to Rong Qiu's face and there was no guilty expression in there. Knowing this, he felt relieved. It seemed like there was nothing going on between them.

Yes, he talked rudely just to test Rong Jiu.

If Rong Qiu knew what inside Bai Bing Wen's mind was, he would certainly vomit blood in anger.

Rong Qiu gritted his teeth in vexation but he still needed to give Bai Bing Wen a face and it really killed him inwardly. After all, the man had just insulted his mother! ”Da Ren... there are a lot of relationship in this world and it doesn't have to be amorous. I treated her as a friend because my life here is boring, even though I like the calmness that this Crescent Lake has offered, I have no friend!” Rong Qiu explained in displeasure.

”Ah... I see...” Bai Bing Wen answered without feeling guilty. Then he apologized, ”I'm sorry for offending you, Uncle Qiu. I will pay attention to my words next time.”

Rong Qiu realized that this man had the ability to choke him to death with his words! Rong Qiu could only laugh awkwardly while being forced to receive his apology.

”What else happened?” Bai Bing Wen tried to inquire more information from Uncle Qiu.

Rong Qiu looked at him in hesitation, not knowing whether he should tell him the truth or not. Bai Bing Wen noticed this and knew that Uncle Qiu had something to say, ”Just tell me! I won't get angry or blame you.”

Rong Qiu rolled his eyes inwardl. Why should he bother even if Bai Bing Wen got angry ah~?!

Rong Qiu didn't hide it from Bai Bing Wen, after all, he knew that the latter's spies must have gotten the news too. If this came out from Rong Qiu's mouth, Bai Bing Wen wouldn't feel suspicious of him --- he needed to play the good guy here.

”There's a rumor that saying you are involved in this matter...” Rong Qiu trailed off at the last part, pretending that he was afarid to let Bai Bing Wen know the truth.

”Hmmm...? Me?” Bai Bing Wen laughed out loud after saying that. He laughed until he cried, thus, he wiped his eyes before talking once more, ”How funny! What kind of benefits that I will get ah~?”

Rong Qiu harrumphed inwardly. This man was really good at pretending that he knew nothing, however, Rong Qiu could do nothing about it. Besides, he didn't really need to do anything --- Hong Wen would help him with this matter. His job would be finished after this conversation ended...

Rong Qiu helplessly said. ”I have no idea too... That's why I'm trying to get the bottom of it.”

Bai Bing Wen asked in a chilling voice, ”Have you found the perpetrator who tried to smear my name?”

Rong Qiu shook his head. ”No... that's why I'm also confused. I've investigated slowly but the one who spread the words couldn't be found.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Bai Bing Wen furrowed his eyebrows. What Rong Qiu said was in line with what his own subordinates had just said. However, he still felt that something wasn't right.
