Chapter 193 Not His Daughter” (1/2)

Watching her husband’s departing back, Bai Ruo inexplicably tightened her hands into a fist until the nails had pierced the skin.

“Bai Yan, consider yourself lucky this time. After I take the Phoenix Brothel from your hands, I won’t let you live!”

As hypocritical as this woman was, she’s not at the stage where she’s willing to share her husband with the enemy.

……

Inside the Capital City Inn, a incessant coughing repeatedly rang out of a certain room here reserved fort he most prestigious of their guests.

“Young Master, I’ve finished investigating as per your command.” The elder standing next to the patient respectfully reports, worried over the incessant coughing of his young lord.

“Oh?” Pricking his brow, “Then what sort of background does that girl have?”

The old elder sneaks a glance before answering: “Her mother is Lanyue, the daughter of the Lan House in this city. As for her father, he’s the current house chief of the Bai family. However, it’s said that she’s been expelled by her father recently.”

Frowning, the middle-aged man became doubtful: “Are you sure that her mother is the lady of the Lan House and that she isn’t adopted?”

“This information is definite without fault. Young Master, I believe the girl from yesterday is only similar to the young lady, they aren’t necessarily related…” The elder helplessly sighed. He too had wondered why there’s someone so similar in appearance, but now it’s obvious that the young lass wasn’t related to their own missing lady.

Maybe it’s due to the bad news, but the coughing only got worse with every passing minute where the patient sounded like he’s about to cough out his lungs. “Do you know where the girl lives?”

“Young Master, you want to…” The elder was a tad surprised so he quickly followed up with a deep frown.

Not minding the protesting look coming his way, the middle-aged man only smiled bitterly: “I can’t help it. Ever since I saw that girl, her face had been lingering in my mind, unable to disperse no matter what. Even if she does have nothing to do with my sister, I still want to go see her.”
