Finally, all thirty slabs were finished, and the people on the bench were already covered in blood and flesh, and the clothes and cloth were coagulated with the blood that had flowed out.

At this moment, Bai Xi was already taking in one breath and half out.

"Xi'er! My Xi'er!" Bai's mother held Bai Xi's face carefully, not daring to look at the horrific injuries.

Bai Mu covered Bai Xi's face tightly, and then quickly stuffed a healing pill into Bai Xi's mouth.

Bai Xi was about to faint from the pain, but because of this healing pill, she managed to stay awake.

Bai Zhengming turned a blind eye to the little actions of his wife and daughter, pretending that he couldn't see it at all. He turned around and faced the crowd of onlookers, with a sincere apology on his face, but his eyes showed his concern for his daughter. Intolerance for punishment.

"Everyone, you have now seen the education my Bai family has given to Bai Xi. I believe Xi'er has sincerely realized that what he did was wrong. In the future, our Bai family will definitely teach the younger generations in our family well, and this situation will never happen again. happened!"

After hearing Bai Zhengming's assurance this time, everyone did not offend him like last time.

Anyway, Bai Xi has been beaten, so everyone has nothing to argue with. The courage to confront the Bai family before was all because of the Gu family. Who makes Bai Xi not know what is good and what is wrong, pointing at Miss Gu's nose and talking nonsense .

But the Bai family is also a big family in Zeyun City. The Gu family can go against the Bai family without any consideration, but we can't!

We are all ordinary people trying to make a living in Zeyun City. What if the Bai family holds a grudge and secretly retaliates against themselves in the future? It is better for those who understand current affairs to be heroes!

Bai Zhengming finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw everyone's reactions. Although the Bai family did look down on these people, they still had to look good on the surface.

Between the reputation of the Bai family and his daughter Bai Xi, Bai Zhengming chose the former without hesitation.

After this incident, Bai Xi's status in the Bai family must have dropped significantly. Her only role now is that the seventh prince is still interested in her. If she is abandoned by the seventh prince, then she will never be able to step out of the white family for the rest of her life. Half a step home.

Thinking of this, Bai Zhengming glanced at the motionless person lying on the bench, and then ordered: "Take the second lady back to the room to recuperate."

Before the servant could start to lift Bai Xi from the bench, he heard a careless female voice suddenly speak.

"Wait a minute—!"

Upon hearing this sound, everyone immediately turned their heads and looked in the direction of the sound.

I saw Gu Muyue slowly walking out of the protective circle of Du Chuanqiong and others, looking at Bai Zhengming and saying: "Bai Xi can't leave now, we still have things to solve."

"Why?!" Before Bai Zhengming could speak, Bai Xi, who was lying on the bench, had already spoken first, "I've already been beaten thirty times, isn't that enough?!"

Bai Xi was so angry with Gu Muyue that all of this was because of her, and she was beaten thirty times by her father!

Gu Muyue ignored Bai Xi's resentful eyes and chuckled, "What does your being beaten thirty times have to do with me? It's not me who beat you, so don't blame everything on me."

Recalling the scene just now, Gu Muyue felt a little happier, and the smile at the corner of her mouth became bigger and bigger, with a completely gloating expression.

"You! You!." Bai Xi was so irritated by Gu Muyue's expression that he pointed at her and was so angry that he couldn't say a word. "Xi'er, that's enough!" Bai Zhengming looked at Bai Xi with warning eyes, then turned around and said to Gu Cheng with a smile: "Master Gu, that's all for today. You see, we, Xi'er, are just He was seriously injured after being punished by the family and needs to go back to rest."

Gu Cheng was watching the show happily, but Bai Zhengming suddenly brought the topic to him. Seeing this, he squinted his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth.

He is not a fool. Bai Zhengming's words sound like a trap. If you reject him, then the Gu family will end up in an unkind end in front of everyone. If you don't refuse, then you will follow the Bai family's lead. It is expected that the matter of Yue'er coming to collect debts will be ignored.

So, Gu Cheng showed a very considerate expression on his face. He glanced at Bai Xi, nodded in agreement and said, "It's true that he was seriously injured and needs to rest."

Hearing this, Bai Zhengming breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that Gu Cheng would not disregard the Gu family's reputation.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Cheng changed the topic and said with a smile: "In that case, that's good. Anyway, Bai Lian and Bai Xi are both members of your Bai family. I believe you will not ignore the debts they have. So the debts they both owe... It's up to you, the Bai family, to repay it, it's the same anyway."

Qiu Sang was very discerning and took out a thick stack of paper, which was densely filled with things that Bai Lian and Bai Xi had taken away from Gu Muyue over the years.

She handed all the papers to Gu Cheng and explained: "Master Gu, here is the list of the Bai family sisters who stole the stolen goods from the eldest lady."

Gu Cheng frowned, took the thick pile from Qiu Sang's hand, glanced at it briefly, and his face became darker as he looked at it.

Only by truly seeing this amount can you know exactly what kind of life your niece has been living these years!

The more Gu Cheng watched, the angrier he became, and the anger in his heart burned stronger and stronger.

The onlookers also saw at a glance the densely written words on the thick paper in Gu Cheng's hand.

Everyone kept looking in Bai Xi's direction with doubtful and disdainful eyes.

People from the Gu family don't lie, so this matter is very likely to be true!

Bai Zhengming looked dumbfounded at the development of things now, and really couldn't figure out why things didn't develop as he expected.

Seeing the stack of paper in Gu Cheng's hand that was filled with "Evidence of Bai Lian and Bai Xi's crimes", Bai Zhengming glanced sharply at a few very familiar things, and those things he had never seen on Bai Lian or Bai Xi. seen.

So obviously, this list is very likely to be true!

Thinking of this possibility, Bai Zhengming panicked for a moment, but quickly calmed down.

It's just a list, not real evidence. Now that Bai Lian is not in Zeyun City, as long as Bai Xi refuses to admit it, the Gu family can't put the blame on the Bai family!

Bai Xi naturally saw what Gu Cheng was holding, but she and Bai Zhengming were indeed biological father and daughter, and she happened to be thinking the same thing as Bai Zhengming.

"Gu Muyue! Don't go too far! If I haven't done anything, I haven't done it! If you don't have evidence, you can't slander me!" Bai Xi endured the pain and kept brainwashing himself in his mind.
