Chapter 162.1: Bai Family Head Bai Luoqing (2/2)

“Yes.”

“Since it’s such a rare occasion, say it. What is it?”

“I wish to take a trip back to the Bai family home.” Bai Feiyun revealed his intentions straightforwardly because he knew that superfluous words were useless with Bai Luoqing.

“Oh? It’s truly becoming more and more shocking. How unexpected that the first thing you ever request of me is the chance to go back to the Bai family home? Didn’t your mother vow back then never to go back to the Bai family home? You would actually defy your mother’s words? It really makes people curious why you want to return to the Bai family home.” Although Bai Luoqing’s words were full of questions, her tone wasn’t puzzled at all. On the contrary, it was calm as if she had expected this.

Bai Feiyun wasn’t surprised at this either. Although the Bai family couldn’t compare to a colossus like Cloud City or to a human devil like Baili Yu, it was still a large clan that had several hundred years of accumulated history. It had plenty of informants and an extensive information network.

Everything he did in Huai City and everything that twin brother of his, Gu Xun, did in Mist City were all within the Bai family’s grasp.

So Bai Feiyun didn’t offer a reason and simply beseeched, “I hope Family Master can agree.”

Bai Luoqing smiled and sat back down. “En. You know that I never make a losing deal. You definitely don’t want others to know that you’re going back, right? So, what do you plan to use to bribe me to keep this secret?”

She was the head of the family. It was a very simple matter for her to noiselessly bring a person back. The reason she was saying this was only because she wanted him to agree to that matter. And since he had come to find her, he had obviously already made the decision.

“As long as Family Head agrees, Feiyun will allow Family Head to set the price.”

After Bai Luoqing heard that, she started giggling. “Feiyun ah, Feiyun. Is it worth it to do this for a man?”

Bai Feiyun’s facial color darkened. “That’s my own business.”

“Aiy, I’m really curious about that Li Xueyi. What exactly is that man like, to actually be able to topple so many outstanding men and make them willing to dig out their own hearts to help him?” Bai Luoqing looked towards Bai Feiyun with an ambiguous gaze as if trying to see something from his face. “Could it be he looks even more charming than a woman?” T/N – It’s the Mary Sue halo.

Bai Feiyun didn’t reply.

The dark room was silent for quite a while before Bai Luoqing gave a long yawn. “You should return, I need to rest now.”

“Family Head…”

“Allow me a few days to consider.” Bai Luoqing lifted her hand and a continuous stream of energy hit Bai Feiyun, pushing him out of the room.

Following that, the door closed with a ‘bang.’ Bai Feiyun stopped himself from moving. His facial color was abnormally bad.

He never expected that this would be the outcome. Bai Luoqing hadn’t agreed or refused it. From the looks of it, she had gotten some news that made her apprehensive about the risks in helping him.

Otherwise, based on his understanding, Bai Luoqing would definitely not hesitate to agree to this very reasonable request since he had agreed to that demand.

As of now, he had no choice but to try and think of other ideas.
