Chapter 42 Banquet (3)

Bai Zhenxiang lowered his furious brows, but the anger in his heart was hard to dispel.

"Hmph, it's fine if you don't follow the family law! Let him go to the ancestral hall to contemplate behind closed doors! Before the Lan family's banquet, he is not allowed to leave a step! I will teach him a lesson after the banquet is over!"

What Yu Rong said is not unreasonable, he can't let people misunderstand that he treats Bai Xiao harshly, so he can only let him go for the time being.

After the banquet, settle accounts with him again!

...

After Bai Xiao left the old house, she did not return to Bai's house immediately, but went to Lan's house first, told Mrs. Lan what Bai Yan had said, and then returned to Bai's mansion immediately.

After returning to the Bai Mansion, he was told that Bai Zhenxiang asked him to go to the ancestral hall to contemplate his mistakes behind closed doors. He sneered, and walked into the ancestral hall without bothering to defend himself.

If he wanted to meet these people from the Baifu, he would rather stay in the ancestral hall than meet those people...

In a few days, the news that the Lan family was going to hold a reception banquet for Bai Yan had spread all over the streets and alleys, and many influential people were invited.

Of course, Nangong Yi, who was Bai Yan's ex-fiancé, also heard about this matter. He originally thought that the Lan family would definitely send him an invitation, but he didn't receive the invitation until that night.

"Prince."

A soft and tender voice came from the side, making Nangong Yi return to his home state, he embraced the woman lying beside him into his arms, and said softly: "Ruo'er, Bai Yan is back, do you know?"

Obviously feeling the body of the woman in his arms stiffen, Nangong Yi's heart immediately ached: "I know that you have suffered a lot from Bai Yan during those years in the Bai family, now you don't have to be afraid, with me here, I will fight for you You decide."

"Prince," Bai Ruo lowered her head and sobbed softly, "Bai Yan has a vicious personality and is infatuated with you. When she comes back this time, she will definitely not forgive me. After all, I stole you away."

"Ruo'er, what nonsense are you talking about? How could you snatch me away? We love each other, so what is Bai Yan?" Nangong Yi frowned, as if he didn't like Bai Yan, "Besides, you are now You are the crown princess, besides the empress dowager and empress, you are the most noble woman in the world, and our Lin'er is also unattainable, why should we be afraid of her?"

"No, it's not," Bai Ruo shook her head and said with a wry smile, "I know Bai Yan's character best. She likes to reverse black and white. Knowing that her identity is not as good as mine, she will definitely deliberately discredit black and white. For example, , She would say that she lost her virginity because I framed her, and that she ran away from home because my mother sold her for money... Bai Yan always shifts her responsibility to others."

Nangong Yi's complexion sank a little, and anger surged in his eyes.

"Prince..." At this point, Bai Ruo held Nangong Yi's hand again, with affection, "Ruo'er doesn't care what people in the world talk about, as long as you believe in Ruo'er."

Under Bai Ruo's beautiful eyes full of affection, Nangong Yi's expression softened: "Ruo'er, why don't I trust you? Don't trust the Bai family? Bai Yan has a vicious heart, you are gentle and kind, and everyone in the world will trust anyone. Obviously, as for saying that the Bai family sold her, it's really ridiculous..."

He sneered, with sarcasm in the corner of his lips: "The Bai family is so rich, how could they be short of the taels of silver they sold her? With her filthy body, no one would accept even a tael of silver."

"Husband..."

The sound of husband made Nangong Yi's heart go numb. He looked at the woman with her head buried on her chest, and said in a gentle voice, "Ruo'er, I'm going to visit Lan's house later."
