Chapter 391: Chapter 391: Found Out About Her Little Brother

"Bulter Lei, go and prepare some tea." Lei Aiguo ordered.

"Yes, Sir." Butler Lei nodded.

"So, Sir Bai, what do you want to talk to me about?" Lei Aiguo asked.

"Can I ask you to investigate about someone?" Bai Xifeng asked back.

"Who?" Lei Aiguo asked.

When Bai Xifeng mentioned the name, Lei Aiguo and Lei Anlei were surprised.

....

Bai Xifeng came to the inn again to see Beauty Mei. She knocked on the door telling Beauty Mei that it was her.

Hearing the familiar voice, Beauty Mei opened the door and looked at Bai Xifeng. Bai Xifeng entered the room.

It seemed Beauty Mei did not sleep at all. She was crying the whole night. She was a mess.

"Clean up yourself." Bai Xifeng ordered.

Beauty Mei went to clean up while Bai Xifeng asked the innkeeper to prepare something to eat. Of course, she gave some money to him. The innkeeper gladly received the order.

Seeing Beauty Mei done cleaning up, Bai Xifeng told her to eat. She shook her head refusing to eat.

"If you want to know about your little brother’s whereabouts, then you should eat." Bai Xifeng stated.

Beauty Mei looked at Bai Xifeng. "What? My little brother’s whereabouts? You know where he is right now?"

"Yes. If you want to know, then eat." Bai Xifeng glanced at the food.

"Yes... Yes... I will eat." Beauty Mei nodded.

She wanted to know her little brother’s whereabouts. If by eating, she would get to know about that, she would eat as much as Bai Xifeng wanted her to eat.

If Bai Xifeng knew what Beauty Mei thought right now, she would roll her eyes. Beauty Mei finished her meal in 10 minutes. After that, she stared at Bai Xifeng wanted Bai Xifeng to tell her.

"As Mingzhu said, your little brother indeed fell sick. After a few days, he began to feel weak. He could not get out of bed. Because of no proper treatment, he died. People did not know that he had died until the bad smell appeared. Upon investigation, it was said that your brother had been decayed. They did not know him well. So, they did not know that he had a family member. So, they cremated the body. As for his ashes, they threw it to the river." Bai Xifeng explained.

Beauty Mei was calmed while Bai Xifeng talked about that. However, Bai Xifeng could see that she was holding back her feelings seeing she was biting her lips.

"Do you know where his ashes have been thrown away?" Beauty Mei managed to speak out despite her feelings.

"Yes. I have its location." Bai Xifeng nodded.

"I want to go there." Beauty Mei said.

"Sure. However, before that, you will need to disguise yourself. That place is still looking for you." Bai Xifeng said.

"Yes." Beauty Mei nodded.

After disguising herself, Beauty Mei and Bai Xifeng went to the river where Beauty Mei’s little brother’s ashes were. Upon arriving at the river, Beauty Mei kneeled down. She was crying in silence while giving the kowtow.

In her mind, she was screaming her little brother’s name asking for his forgiveness.

’Donghua, I am sorry. I am sorry. If I had more strength, I could protect you. I am an idiot for believing in the wrong person. I am sorry for not being by your side when you were on the brink of death. I am sorry for letting you feel lonely when you were dying. I am sorry... I am sorry.’ Beauty Mei apologized again and again while crying.

Bai Xifeng was standing beside Beauty Mei in silence waiting for her to pay her final respects to her little brother. After a while, Beauty Mei turned around and kneeled in front of Bai Xifeng.

"Young Master, please help me." Beauty Mei asked.

"Help you? With what?" Bai Xifeng asked back.

"I want revenge. I am willing to be your slave if you help me." Beauty Mei looked straight into Bai Xifeng’s eyes conveying her determination.

Bai Xifeng was silent and stared at Beauty Mei for a while.

"Once you become mine, I expect loyalty toward me and my family. If you dare betray me, I will make you feel that you are in hell while you are still alive." Bai Xifeng stated.

"I, Li Huian will pledge my loyalty to Young Master Bai. If I betray him, I will be struck with Heavenly Punishment."

Bai Xifeng was surprised to hear that

"Your name is Li Huian?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"Yes. My birth name is Li Huian." Li Huian said.

"I see." Bai Xifeng nodded.

Li Huian swore the Heaven Oath. If she betrayed Bai Xifeng in the future, she would not escape the Heavenly Punishment.

"So, what do you want me to help you with?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"I want to kill Madam Shu. She always threatened me with my little brother’s life. This time, I want to be the one who does the threat. And that Mingzhu, I want her to suffer for the rest of her life." Li Huian expressed her hate while mentioning those two names.

"I can help you with that. But doing that by yourself, you will feel the satisfaction the most." Bai Xifeng said.

"I can handle Mingzhu but Madam Shu is different. My cultivation is not higher than Madam Shu’s. She will be able to detect me if I come closer to her. I may get killed first." Li Huian clenched her fists.
