It was a pity…
Just now, nobody had noticed the scene by the restaurant doorway and naturally, no one was able to stand out and be witness to Bai Zhi’s innocence.
“Crown Prince, don’t believe him. He is framing me!” Bai Zhi immediately turned to Nangong Yi as she anxiously explained.
“I’m not talking nonsense.” Bai Xiaochen’s eyes were full of tears. Even if his face was dirty, his gaze was still pitiful that it made one feel heartache. “If you hadn’t pushed me, Xiao Mi wouldn’t have scratched you.”
“Meow.”
Xiao Mi proudly raised its small head, waving its claws as if showing off.
At this moment, more and more people were gathering at the restaurant doorway. Under the pointing of those people, Bai Zhi was so anxious that she was about to cry.
“Bai Zhi, you’ve truly made me too disappointed!” Nangong Yi waved his sleeve as his said coldly. “This young boy has no enmity with you. Why would he frame you? Furthermore, he’s only five or six years old. How could such a young child have such deep schemes like you said?”
Bai Zhi’s face turned pale as she bit hard on the bottom of her lip which was trembling slightly.
“Of the Bai family’s daughters, none can compare to Ruo’er. Firstly there was Bai Yan, that despicable person who did not keep the ways of a wife, and then there’s you, who does not even let off a child!”
Nangong Yi was only concerned about lecturing Bai Zhi but did not notice that when he was insulting Bai Yan, the eyes of the little boy who initially looked pitiful immediately lit up with rage.
However, thinking about today’s aim, he lowered his head, not allowing anyone to take a clear look at the anger within his eyes. His slightly moving shoulders would only make people think that he was crying.
“Your Highness, Crown Prince, listen to me explain first…” Bai Zhi was so anxious that she was about to grab Nangong Yi’s hand, but was ruthless shaken off by him.
“Enough!” Nangong Yi burst in anger. “The Bai family head had originally came to seek me out, wanting me to make a decision to allow you to become Marchioness Cang. I had originally thought that you were obedient and matured and had indeed wanted to speak on your behalf! Who’d knew that you would actually make things difficult for a child! Imperial Father would definitely not allow you to cause trouble in the backyard of the marquis’ manor with that attitude of yours!”
After he finished speaking, Nangong Yi walked down the steps without even so much as giving her a glance.
When he arrived before Bai Xiaochen, he frowned slightly as a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes.
This child was so dirty and was indeed dislikeable. It was no wonder Bai Zhi would do such things! It was just that as a member of the royal family, there was a need to keep up with appearances. If Bai Zhi were to really enter the royal clan and still did not bother about reputation, then Imperial Father would definitely be angered!
At this moment, Nangong Yi thought of his and Bai Ruo’s child as his expression eased up.
There was truly no child that could be compared to his own child! That little beggar was so dirty, messy, and hateful, as different as the sky and the earth when compared to his own child.
Bai Zhi looked at the direction in which Nangong Yi left and her brain exploded with a rumble. Only two words were left floating in her mind-done for!
This was all the little beggar’s fault!
Perhaps angered to the point where it rushed to her head, Bai Zhi’s gaze turned terrifying. “I’m going to strangle you to death!”
Seeing Bai Zhi who had lost her sanity rushing over to him, a cunning gleam flashed in Bai Xiaochen’s eyes. He twisted his leg on purpose and fell to the side with an exclamation, while also coincidentally dodging Bai Zhi’s hands.
The crowd only treated it as Bai Xiaochen having good luck and therefore managing to dodge it, not thinking too much into it.
“Meow!”
Xiao Mi was angered. He knew that with Bai Xiaochen’s cultivation, a mere little Bai Zhi was unable to hurt him.
However, this did not mean that it would allow others to harm Bai Xiaochen right before its eyes!
