At the beginning, there was unity, but as the price kept increasing, so people had beco tempted.
Bai Zhi and her group knew that so people were getting restless.
Unfortunately, they did not know that Bai Family Village had long been designated as a traditional village and could not be demolished.
Of course, before this, Great Grandpa and Bai Guang had not taken any action.
Over ti, as the forest grew bigger.
There were always a few who would not follow the rules; it was always necessary to first find out who had already lost their earlier feelings for Bai Family Village.
So they remained still, waiting for the final mont.
Bai Zhi returned to the village and started studying with peace of mind.
She also worked on recovering her health, while Moh Li would co back every day.
Now, everyone had an unspoken understanding about the two of them.
But Bai Zhi had never thought about the future.
When it ca to relationships, Bai Zhi had always been naive, not knowing what to make of Moh Li.
Even Xu Yan had said he agreed with their being together and sotis ntioned it to Bai Zhi.
"Xingxing, what do you think about Moh Li?"
Actually, for Xu Yan, no one was worthy of his sister, but there was no helping it.
Now, her life and death were at stake. In the face of life and death, the issue of Moh Li not being worthy of his sister was pushed back slightly.
If Moh Li were with soone else, what would his sister do?
"Brother, your sister is only a teenager?"
Bai Zhi was sowhat helpless; her brother had absolutely forbidden her from teaching her boyfriend a lesson before.
"Sister, you..." Although a teenager, it was already her second lifeti.
Bai Zhi naturally understood what Xu Yan ant, "Now, with a great enemy ahead, why bring this up, bro?
I don’t know what I think, I’ve never thought about the future."
Bai Zhi had really never thought about the future.
She had never thought about having a boyfriend, let alone getting married and having children.
What she had always thought about was how to change the past tragedies, and now she wanted to protect this place.
"Now, the people in the village are all crazy, thinking about demolition, but this village absolutely cannot be touched."
Every building in Bai Family Village was useful; the reason it had beco a traditional village was that the buildings had been inherited from long ago.
They were all wooden structures, very beautiful and robust, and had remained unchanged even after many years, weathering the passing of ti.
When Bai Fei and Bai Xiang ca over, they saw Xu Yan and Bai Zhi sitting together, talking in a very intimate manner.
Even though Bai Fei had initially said she would never allow anyone to co between her and Bai Zhi, facing Xu Yan was ultimately a bit uncomfortable.
She thought about getting close to Xu Yan, but similarly felt embarrassed.
And now, they were nominally siblings.
I wanted to be your girlfriend, but now you’ve beco my brother.
Bai Fei could only keep those feelings in her heart forever.
Even though she and Bai Zhi were on good terms again, it still felt a little awkward.
"Xingxing, I need to talk to you."
Bai Xiang called Bai Zhi over; it was ti.
"We’ll go to the village entrance. Grandpa says it’s ti."
Only Bai Fei and Xu Yan were left in the courtyard.
"Do you want so tea, senior?"
Bai Fei ran in to prepare the tea.
"No need, Bai Fei. I think I should say I’m sorry. Back then, I saved you on a whim, knowing you were from the Bai family, which led to our frequent encounters."
Xu Yan hadn’t found the opportunity to tell her before. He used to think it wasn’t necessary, but now that they were sowhat family, he felt he needed to ntion it.
"Senior, you really are..." Not giving a second thought.
Bai Fei didn’t expect Xu Yan to state it so directly.
Previously, he would have made it sound nicer, at least maintaining face for everyone, but now this was...
That’s why Bai Fei wasn’t really carefree; she just kept her thoughts to herself and let her carefree nature show on her face.
Now, it all ca out. So things you can’t forget just by wanting to, and so relationships you can’t return to just by wanting to.
"Why make it so clear? Do you want to dislike you, Senior? Or do you really dislike that much?"
Bai Fei didn’t understand. Xu Yan had barged into her world, but now he seed ready to leave as he pleased.
"I just don’t like it," Xu Yan said very directly, rembering clearly how she had targeted his sister.
"I’m sowhat vengeful. I said it back then, we cleared things up, it had nothing to do with my sister, but you still took it out on her.
I actually have a bad temper, so naturally, I wouldn’t have a good impression of you.
Originally, I only saved you on a whim, then I was planning to use you, but then I found my sister. So we’re even. From now on, it’s better if we have no contact."
Xu Yan’s words, while cutting deep into Bai Fei’s heart, left her speechless.
Bai Fei ran away imdiately after hearing them.
It wasn’t long before Bai Xiang ca back, looked at Xu Yan, and muttered a few words.
"Thanks. If she can’t get past this, I will let her study at a university far away."
Xu Yan shook his head, "Those were my sincere words."
Though it was Bai Xiang’s idea to have him confront Bai Fei, hoping Bai Fei could truly let go, Xu Yan felt those were indeed his sincere thoughts, so there really was no need for thanks.
Bai Xiang’s mouth twitched. This Xu Yan really was...
But Xu Yan was even better at making money than him.
The cunning businessman they spoke of was Xu Yan, both hated and envied.
He agreed to help, thinking he was really being treated as family, but now Bai Xiang understood.
Xu Yan’s only family was likely just Bai Zhi.
Aside from his cousin, no one else was his family.
"Alright, still, thank you. As long as we’re not enemies, that’s enough." Otherwise, such a formidable and ruthless enemy was really sothing he didn’t want.
"Hopefully. If you won’t harm my sister."
For Xu Yan, other people really didn’t matter much to him. Only his sister had ever been his close family mber; no one else was...
"That’s natural, she’s my cousin, I obviously won’t harm her."
Bai Xiang spoke sowhat helplessly, no need to pretend to be close.
When Bai Zhi arrived at the village entrance, many people had gathered, most of whom wanted to relocate.
They were the ones who had co to Bai Family Village later and occupied so less critical positions.
Bai Family Village was originally a Bagua formation, the most important spots were always held by the direct family, who would not move.
As for those who ca later, they were actually dispensable.
But...
"If you want to agree to relocate, we naturally can’t say much, but since you’ve moved away, you no longer have a part in this traditional village."
Great Grandpa, holding a tobacco pipe in his hand, made a statent that shocked everyone present.
