Furthermore, Yin Yuchen had been so pretentious before, so how could she allow him to place another daughter in her place?
Therefore, Bai Ruochao's only bargaining chip was that Bai Luojin still had the title of "Madam Yin". No matter what, Bai Ruochao would definitely let her stay in the Yin Family.
"Bai Luojin, are you really not willing to go back and apologize to Yin Yuchen?!" Seeing how stubborn Bai Luojin was, Bai Ruochao's face immediately darkened, and his tone became even more serious.
It looked like he was about to start pressuring them. Bai Luojin watched coldly in his heart, but his expression did not change, as he resolutely shook his head.
"Bai Luojin, think carefully. As long as you are willing to stay in Yin Family, you will always be my good daughter. Not only will you have the title of wife, I will also always support you from behind."
"But —" Bai Ruochao suddenly changed the subject, stared straight at Bai Luojin, squinted his eyes, and said with an ice-cold voice that was filled with a sense of threat:
"If you don't listen to me and stubbornly return to the Bai Clan, then you will be a sinner of the Bai Clan. At that time, your father will not be able to protect you."
Heh, what a great 'can't be protected'. Bai Luojin sneered in his heart.
She naturally understood the meaning of Bai Ruochao's words. If she was willing to obediently cooperate and become a "puppet" like Mistress Yin, helping the Bai Family to hold onto their Yin Family, Bai Ruochao would treat her as his own daughter.
Otherwise... He would torture her even more than before, making her unable to live a good life in the Bai Clan. He would allow all sorts of people to humiliate and bully her.
The purpose of this naked threat was to frighten her. Didn't she want a peaceful life? He let her know that if she disobeyed his orders and stubbornly returned to the Bai Family, he would make her suffer a fate worse than death compared to when she was in the Yin Family!
Bai Luojin deliberately shrunk his eyes, anxiously raising his head to glance at Bai Ruochao, he quickly lowered his head, and his body continued to tremble from fear.
Gritting his lower lip tightly, as if he had gone through an intense struggle, the tears in the corners of Bai Luojin's eyes fell drop by drop.
"Even if father is angry, I'm not willing to go back. No matter what, I'm the young miss of the Bai Clan, and I don't live a good life in my own home …" "It's better than being humiliated by an outsider."
Bai Luojin lowered his head, shrunk himself into the shape of an ostrich, and spoke softly.
Damn it!
Seeing that Bai Luojin was not going to give in, Bai Ruochao clenched his fists and muttered an incantation in his heart. How could he have such a stubborn and foolish daughter? If not for the fact that Bai Luojin was still of some use to him right now, he would have done so a long time ago!
A trace of ruthlessness quickly flashed through Bai Ruochao's eyes, but he quickly controlled his emotions. He was just a young girl who didn't know anything. He had his ways of making her listen to him.
Raising his hand, Bai Ruochao made a gesture to a maid at the side. The maid respectfully nodded, then turned around and walked out of the room.
"Come, Luo Jin, get up first." After the maid left, Bai Ruochao gently helped Bai Luojin up and placed her on a chair. The smile on his face became even more benevolent.
It seemed that he would have to start luring them. Bai Luojin lowered his head, and a mocking sneer flashed past his eyes. This was indeed Bai Ruochao's way of doing things, but she wanted to see what kind of conditions Bai Ruochao had to lure her with.
"Luo Jin, you have always been a good girl, now that you're confused, I can understand," Bai Ruochao smiled as he paused for a moment, then looked towards the door, seeing the maid bringing back a box, the smile on his face became even more obvious.
Receiving the box from the maid's hands, Bai Ruochao opened it in front of Bai Luojin, and pretended to sigh: "It's a pity that your mother left early.
Hearing Bai Ruochao talk about her mother again, Bai Luojin gritted her teeth. The drooping eyelids covered the rage in her eyes, and a disgusting feeling surged through her stomach, straight to her mouth.
This disgusting man actually dared to mention her mother again and again!
"There are some things left behind by your mother, which I assume she left for you. They were kept here all this time, but now they can finally be returned to their rightful owner." Bai Ruochao said deliberately in a kind manner, as he placed the box in front of Bai Luojin.
When his gaze landed on a piece of green jade within the box, Bai Luojin's eyes suddenly widened. Even though he was trying his best to control his emotions, he still could not help but tremble from excitement.
After his mother had passed away, Bai Luojin had collected her mother's remnants many times, but to no avail, as if all the things she had collected regarding her mother had vanished from the face of the earth in the blink of an eye.
Who would have thought that Bai Ruochao had actually hidden all of them!
He had expected that he could make use of his mother's inheritance, or perhaps be prepared for it, so he had prepared it ten years ago. Ten years ago, he had taken into account everything that he could use!
Killing his mother wasn't enough, he had actually left behind his mother's inheritance. He was scheming to use it to threaten her in the future!
Bai Luojin tightly clenched her fist, her already white joints slightly trembled, her breathing became hurried from anger. Even though she wasn't willing to reveal her true emotions in front of Bai Ruochao, even though she tried her best to restrain herself, she still couldn't suppress the overflowing anger in her chest!
Bai Ruochao, Bai Ruochao!
The bottom of Bai Luojin's eyes turned scarlet. He screamed repeatedly in his heart, "Bai Ruochao, I will never let you off!"
"Luo Jin?"
Bai Ruochao's voice was like a bucket of cold water being poured over him, instantly bringing Bai Luojin back to his senses. She slowly raised her head, and the anger in her chest was slowly suppressed by reason.
"I just suddenly, really missed my mother."
This was the only time, the only time he was allowed to reveal his true emotions in front of Bai Ruochao. Bai Luojin silently warned himself in his heart, it was because of his mother, nothing else.
"I know." Bai Ruochao smiled gently, with a pleased smile in the bottom of his eyes.
He had said that he had a way to make others listen to him.
After saying "I understand", Bai Ruochao did not speak anymore, and only held the box, and looked at Bai Luojin with a "benevolent" smile.
Although he did not speak, Bai Luojin could read a sentence from his greedy eyes: If you want your mother's remnants, obediently listen to me.
Even though he was not willing to follow Bai Ruochao's instructions, even though Bai Luojin was unwilling to use his mother's remnants to exchange, it was a disgrace.
However, she really couldn't resist this condition.
Bai Luojin slowly loosened his fist, raised his head and looked straight at Bai Ruochao, opened his mouth, and slowly said word by word: "I am willing to listen to you, return to the Yin Family, and obediently be Mistress Yin, and serve the Bai Family."
"Hahaha, this is my good daughter!" Bai Ruochao laughed with satisfaction.
There was no need to say anything more. The deal had already been completed.
