The Young Matriarch

Chapter 193: Chapter 193: Turns Out It’s My Own House That Has Collapsed?

Bai Ze suddenly erupted in rage, disappearing in a blur of afterimages. In the instant the butler jumped out, Bai Ze grabbed his shoulder blade, causing the butler’s face to turn deathly white as he screamed in agony.

Bai Ze, as if he were picking up a chick, lifted him over.

Bai Ze stepped on the butler’s leg and couldn’t help but pull out his own Jade Talisman, exclaiming with joy, “Cousin Weiwei, how did I become so powerful? It’s like… this Jade Talisman gave me a buff!”

Bai Ze felt that even his master, who had started Qi Refinement, wasn’t as powerful as he was.

It must be because this Jade Talisman had a buff on it!

Bai Chuwei “hmm”ed, she truly despised this older cousin who had studied martial arts for over twenty years and couldn’t beat a hundred thugs in the original text. This Bai Ze mythical beast Jade Talisman could protect him defensively and increase his attack power offensively.

Bai Ze laughed heartily, hugging the Jade Talisman and smooching it fervently, then he caught a cold, chilling gaze—

Bai Ze paused and silently put the Jade Talisman back into his pocket.

Uncle Duan didn’t have one, so he shouldn’t take out the Jade Talisman in front of him in the future.

Old Master Liu didn’t care whether Bai Ze’s Jade Talisman had a buff or not; he was shocked as he looked at the butler, “What on earth is going on? A safeguard against villains? Are you a villain of the Liu Family?”

Liu Family’s butler Liu En was so scared he almost messed himself, crying and begging, “Old Master, spare my life, please! I was… I was bewitched. The young master should still be alive; he’s been tied up in a cave at Wolong Ridge.”

Kidnapping!

Old Master Liu suddenly remembered what Bai Chuwei had just said, calling the police to join!

Seeing the scene before him, Butler Liu En was surrounded by bodyguards, Uncle Duan from the Duan Family, the Qi Family head, and a super-strong fighter…

The most crucial was that mysterious young lady sitting right in the middle, sipping tea calmly.

Butler Liu En turned deathly pale, shaking like a leaf, and blurted out like spilling beans, “It was… the Tang Family.”

Bai Chuwei’s leisurely tea drinking paused abruptly, “Which Tang Family?”

Liu En hurriedly explained, “Which other Tang Family could there be in the Imperial Capital? The Tang Family from the eight great aristocratic families! Their new Family Head has taken charge, brimming with ambition to become the leader of the eight great families. The Liu Family… has become a thorn in their side.”

Old Master Liu was livid, “Are they a bunch of bandits?”

Bai Chuwei: “…”

Did it turn out her own house had collapsed?

Qi Mo, who was always gentle, also changed his demeanor slightly, lowering his head and coughing softly.

The eight great aristocratic families had formed a network, and they had always acted discreetly. Several of the family heads were old and accustomed to lying low like a salted fish; they had never been called “bandits” before.

Upon hearing it was the Tang Family, Bai Chuwei said with a dark face, “Xiaoliu, I think it’s better for you to go back now.”

Neither Qi Mo nor the Tang Family was reassuring, which of the eight great families could indeed please her?!

She should really kick them all out and have Hanhan as her underling!

Old Master Liu suddenly understood and nodded repeatedly.

Who the villains were didn’t matter now; he just wanted his son safe and sound!Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The auction house owner Li Sheng personally escorted them out, adding, “Old Master Liu, if there’s any news about your son, please also let me know.”

Of course, what Li Sheng was worried about was not his son but Bai Chuwei’s divination technique!

Everyone parted ways at the entrance of the auction house.

Qi Mo looked at Bai Chuwei and volunteered, “I will send you and Mr. Bai Ze home.”

Duan Feihan stepped between them, his tall figure casting a shadow over Bai Chuwei, almost engulfing her entirely.

Duan Feihan, without glancing elsewhere, said to Bai Chuwei, “There’s no need to trouble the great young master Qi, I can take her home.”

Bai Chuwei: “???”

He wouldn’t be settling scores in autumn because she hadn’t carved a Jade Talisman for him, would he?
