Chapter 1375 “Co On Their Own (1)”
Covering her tear-stricken face, the maid painfully knelt there in pain: “I’m not actually a maid from the leopard tribe, I’m Mu Xue’s cousin. My parents were killed by humans when I was young so it’s just and my younger brother all these years. We depended on each other… Then Mu Xue kidnapped him before she ran away, holding him hostage against . I can’t say no to her, she will kill him if I don’t do as she says.”
“You think she’s going to let your brother go because of your obedience?” The steambun asks with a rare look of pity.
Sure enough, that remark was lethal to the already distressed woman of the leopard tribe. Going red in the eye as tears continued to swell outward: “What do you an by that?”
It can’t be!
Mu Xue promised , as long as I succeed then she will release my brother!
How can she go back on her words?
But……
Upon rembering the past behavior and deeds of that evil girl, this distressed woman knew she couldn’t keep fooling herself. Whatever the boy says are more plausible and a likely case than her own hopeful wishes.
Getting down to eye level since he could see how pained the woman was as well, Bai Xiachen understood he shouldn’t be too hard on her either. “Why didn’t you co find my parents in the palace? As long as you told us the truth and asked for help then it would’ve been a wiser decision.”
Making a shudder, she hung her head even lower in sha. That’s right, she didn’t think things through, believing only in what Mu Xue said. It’s not like this woman was that stupid to not want to seek outside help, but she didn’t know Bai Yan’s personality or character. What if her case wouldn’t be taken up? What then? Furthermore, everyone’s been spreading rumors about the demon queen being a hostile female that hated the sa sex in every way, that didn’t help either.
“High….. Highness.” Banging her head even harder now to make a case: “Please save my brother, as long as you can save him then I am willing to pay for my sins with my life! I know trying to abduct the young prince is my fault, but my brother is innocent, he doesn’t know anything….”
Puckering his little lips over that plea, Bai Xiachen shoots back a snarky remark: “Your cri is of course unforgivable. If I wasn’t so clever and caught you red-handed, I bet you would’ve kept trying to kidnap Jin Tian.”
The woman couldn’t refute the accusation. Trembling along the shoulders, she only hopes the boy wouldn’t hold it against herself, or at least until they get her brother back sohow.
“But I do want to know why Mu Xue would order you to kidnap Jin Tian though.”
“I…” Giving a careful glance towards the little glutton, who was firmly protected behind Bai Xiachen’s figure: “I originally wanted to abduct the princess, not the young prince. You didn’t give a chance because you were always by her side, so….”
“Your target is Ling Yan?” Bai Xiachen’s expression promptly sank.
If the purpose of Mu Xue is to attack Mother then why is she going after Ling Yan?
It can’t be….
Mu Xue is in line with the Celestial Palace?
Tightening his grasp around the girl’s hand, Bai Xiachen had a lot of emotions swinging between his eyes right now as he glances down to his sister.
