Chapter 13
"Bai Yunhan, what do you mean by this?" Su Mo went forward and protected Xiao Han and Xia Miaomiao behind her.
Bai Yunhan looked at her, "Miss Su, I'd rather ask what you mean? I kindly took you in, yet you're making trouble here?"
"Who's making trouble? I just happened to urgently go find a doctor for Sister Li, and coincidentally met my friend. If I didn't rush over in time, my friend would have died by that man in black!"
"Man in black? What man in black?"
Xiao Han immediately went forward and said, "It's the real murderer who killed Old Master Bai! He was just about to silence me!"
Bai Yunhan knitted his brows, "Can you remember what he looked like?"
"I didn't see his appearance clearly, he had his face covered!"
The three were brought to the guest room again.
At this time, the doctor was taking Sang Li's pulse by the bed.
"Sister Li, what's going on?" Xiao Han and Xia Miaomiao immediately ran to the bedside. Seeing that Sang Li had red rashes on her face and neck.
"An allergic reaction?" Xiao Han blurted out instinctively.
"Cough cough..." Su Mo deliberately coughed, and said sarcastically, "Someone must have poisoned the osmanthus cake earlier, and Sister Li became like this after eating it!"
Xiao Han and Xia Miaomiao looked at Sang Li. They both knew Sang Li was allergic to osmanthus.
"Doctor, is she really poisoned?" Bai Yunhan went forward and asked anxiously.
The doctor frowned, not knowing what to say.
"It doesn't seem like poisoning... Her body also doesn't seem to have major issues..."
"How can she be fine like this? Forget it, my friend here knows medicine, we won't bother you anymore." Su Mo pulled the doctor aside.
Bai Yunhan picked up the plate of desserts on the table, "Doctor, check and see if this osmanthus cake is poisoned?"
The doctor took the plate of cakes and tested it with a silver needle, there was no poison.
"Young Master, there's no poison in the cakes."
"But that person's martial arts skills were ordinary!" Su Mo said. After exchanging blows with the man in black earlier, she felt his martial arts skills were average.
"But my husband's skills were exceptional." Third Aunt Xiaoru said. "Back then, my husband single-handedly rescued me from the hands of bandits. He could take on a whole group by himself."
"My Lady, why don't we do this? We sisters will find the real murderer for you within ten days. It will clear my two friends of suspicion." Sang Li suddenly suggested.
"What if you can't find the real murderer?!" Second Aunt asked aggressively.
"Then... we'll accept whatever punishment my Lady imposes."
Lady Bai paused for a moment before saying, "Alright, I'll believe you for now."
"My Lady! These people are clearly unreliable. Why not report this to the authorities?" Second Aunt was a little dissatisfied.
"That's settled then!" Lady Bai said and left the guest room with everyone.
Third Aunt Xiaoru took a look at them before leaving the guest room.
Second Aunt glared fiercely at Sang Li and the others again before leaving the guest room.
Bai Yunxin looked at Sang Li meaningfully. Sang Li smiled slightly at her, frightening Bai Yunxin into immediately averting her gaze as she followed Second Aunt out the door.
Bai Yunhan walked to the bedside. He apologetically said to Sang Li, "Miss Sang, I'm very sorry about what happened earlier."
Sang Li knew he was referring to confining them. She smiled indifferently, "Master Bai doesn't need to take it to heart. It's normal for you to be suspicious of us."
"It's because you said you were from China Town on one hand, yet said you were from Jiuzhou City on the other, so I..."
The four looked at each other and couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Master Bai, we didn't say anything wrong. They are actually the same place, just... one is an alias."
"I see..." Bai Yunhan looked at Sang Li's face, a little uneasy as he said, "You... really are alright?"
"Don't worry, my friend here knows medicine. I'll be fine, thank you for your concern, Master Bai."
"Alright, I'll take my leave first. Let me know if you need anything."
"Okay."
After everyone left, Su Mo immediately asked, "Sister Li, what did you mean earlier? That Miss Bai, isn't she the girl we saw in bed after transmigrating?"
