I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family

Chapter 770: Chapter 718 Everything that Happened Today is Not Quite Normal

Bai Fei looked at Bai Zhi, knowing all along that Bai Zhi was sharp-tongued, but she never imagined that one day, Xia Zhi’s barbed tongue would be turned on her.

And that it would be with such a cutting tone, uttering such hurtful words.

“You never really considered me a friend, did you? Otherwise, you wouldn’t say things that wound me so deeply. Bai Zhi, I am ending our friendship.”

After speaking, Bai Fei ran out. Bai Zhi watched her departing figure without saying a word…

“Xingxing, you…”

Bai Dan looked at his granddaughter, understanding that Xingxing was trying to drive everyone away, leaving only herself.

“Grandpa, let’s go. I don’t need friends.”

Now she needed friends even less.

Bai Dan and Bai Zhi walked slowly; they were waiting, waiting for Han Sheng to make a move, so Bai Dan could protect his granddaughter. At the very least, they wouldn’t have to leave…

But it didn’t happen, not from home to the entrance of the village.

Bai Dan took the carriage and left, with Bai Zhi watching at the village entrance.

Still, there was no movement; Han Sheng really could hold back.

Suddenly, it seemed like something rushed over.

Bai Zhi’s hand touched the Golden Needle, her eyes squinted.

Those in the shadows protecting Bai Zhi were also on alert.

Nowadays, Bai Family Village looked no different from usual, still brimming with the festive spirit of celebrating the New Year, but in fact, countless people had arrived, hiding amongst them.

“Xingxing, it’s me…”

Bai Da emerged from the dark, holding a box in his hand. Looking at Bai Zhi, he opened the box cautiously.

Inside was a lantern.

Bai Zhi frowned; the light shone on Bai Da.

Of course, she knew that nowadays Bai Da lived alone, Ye Xiu had Bai Ye look after her, so she stayed with him in the county town.

Ye Xiu now was in a state of complete disarray, spending her days either lying at home or wandering aimlessly, without her lectern, she seemed to feel life was meaningless.

Or perhaps, she just wanted to return to the times when she had everything and couldn’t accept no longer being pampered by others.

Bai Da had been too good to her before, catering to her every whim, and she had grown accustomed to it without realizing it.

Even later, when Nan Jin did the same, it gave Ye Xiu the illusion that the whole world would revolve around her if she desired it.

So that’s probably why she couldn’t accept the current situation suddenly.

However, all this had nothing to do with Bai Zhi.

Her gaze landed on the rabbit lantern.

That lantern was the first thing she and Nan Xi ever fought over.

That Lantern Festival, everyone was making lanterns and floating river lanterns.

Great Grandpa had made her a rabbit lantern, which she loved and secretly took home, planning to go out and play with it at night.

But Nan Xi found out, and the two of them fought over it, ending with Bai Yu kicking and breaking the lantern.

Nan Xi got a new lantern, while she could only look at her broken one, locked up in her room.

She really liked that lantern back then.

It was also the thing she most desired and the first time she realized the gap between her and Nan Xi.

“What are you giving this to me for?”

To tell her that she owned the lantern but didn’t deserve to?

Bai Zhi was somewhat baffled by the Bai Da of today, always edging closer to her.

Knowing full well she would never forgive, yet still showing up.

Did he think she would forget over time?

“Xingxing, I ruined your lantern that year, now dad has made you one, not just one lantern but many, pick whichever one you like,” he said.

Bai Zhi shined her flashlight and realized that behind him were many lanterns, all different kinds.

“I don’t need them.”

Bai Zhi walked past Bai Da without a second glance. “What’s broken is broken, just as harm is always harm. That Bai Zhi who longed for love has long since died.

“You killed her with your own hands, have you forgotten?”

Bai Zhi’s indifferent voice echoed in his ears.

Bai Da’s body swayed, and even though he knew this might be the outcome, hearing it still made him feel a pain too intense for life.

Xingxing was right; he had indeed hurt his daughter personally.

No one knew better than he did how much Xingxing had suffered.

Yet he still wanted to do something for his daughter, no matter how small.

Bai Da followed closely behind Bai Zhi, carrying several lanterns.

Soon Bai Zhi reached the village where the lights had come to life, and her gaze turned toward the square where everyone was gathered.

Today, the village elders would perform shadow plays for everyone, an event that happened only once a year.

Bai Zhi glanced over and was ready to head back.

Bai Da had been following her until she reached the doorstep of her home.

With just one look, Bai Zhi knew someone had entered.

However, this time, she did not know where they had dropped off.

Bai Zhi turned back and said, “Go find Great Grandpa; there’s a thief.”

After saying that, Bai Zhi was ready to go inside, but Bai Da grabbed her hand.

“You can’t go in there; wait until I’ve called some people. It’s not safe for you alone.”

In Bai Zhi’s other bag was a cell phone that could be used to call Bai Dan directly, but she wouldn’t make the call until she was sure whether it was Han Sheng or not.

Although it seemed like Bai Dan and the others had been reassigned, they were actually waiting in the county town, ready to come back as soon as there was any commotion.

At this moment, Han Feng was nearly frantic in the hospital, but he had been sedated and had no strength left at all.

Of course, there were no side effects, because in the eyes of that madman, he was still of some use.

If his plan didn’t succeed, they would need his body.

Thus, Han Feng knew very well that nothing would happen to him before then.

But he was going to hurt Xingxing, something Han Feng absolutely could not tolerate.

Therefore, Han Feng had to find a way to leave the hospital.

Han Feng’s eyes turned to his bag, and he struggled to take out a box of sweets.

“Young Master, you shouldn’t eat just anything.”

Someone quickly intervened. Now, what Han Feng ate, how much he ate daily—even his water intake—was regulated; he couldn’t just eat whenever he wanted.

“I’m just eating a piece of candy; what about it?”

Han Feng said darkly, speaking out.

Hearing Han Feng’s words, the people outside the door rushed in.

Han Feng and the others were shocked by the sight of Xu Yan and the men with him.

“What’s Young Master Xu doing here?”

Xu Yan didn’t say a word but just made a gesture, and shortly after, he was carrying Han Feng in a car speeding towards Bai Family Village.

“He’s making his move today.”

Right now, Han Feng wished the car could go faster, and faster still.

However, it was snowing heavily, and the road was not easy to navigate.

Bai Dan was also waiting halfway there. On this snowy and windy night, everyone’s hearts were clenched with tension.

Bai Xiang took Bai Fei and locked her directly in the secret room at home.

“You’d better reflect on yourself at home and stop running around for no reason.”

Bai Fei had not expected their home to have a secret room either. However, she soon realized she couldn’t find a way out.

At that moment, Bai Fei realized that everything that happened today was abnormal.
