Chapter 622 – This… How is it possible?
The royal banquet ended with everyone shocked. Xuanyuan Yutian sealed the information and everything that had transpired stayed hidden, no gossip was spread.
Di Beichen’s identity was extraordinary, and they all understood the seriousness, and after what happened at tonight’s banquet, they all took it for granted that they had to stay silent.
For some time, although the military and civil officers were unaware of what had happened, they still told their families that they should not offend the Chen Wangye.
After the banquet ended, Baili Hongzhuang and Di Beichen went to General Baili’s home.
In Baili Hongzhuang’s memories, this place had never brought her even one ounce of joy, and all of the memories were unbearable.
She wanted to go here, for this would be the last time she came back. After today she would end all her relationship with the general.
Baili Zhentao had not expected that Baili Hongzhuang would come. He blinked a few times, and was so shocked that he failed to believe his eyes. He wanted to say something, but he did not know where to start.
Baili Zhentao knew that Baili Hongzhuang had already been very good to him, and had to thank her for not making trouble for him at today’s banquet, otherwise his end would have been just as bad as Li Chenqian’s.
“Baili Hongzhuang, how come you are here?”
Baili Haoxuan did not dare to disrespect Baili Hongzhuang at this moment, otherwise as long as Di Beichen said the word, his life would be gone.
Baili Hongzhuang faintly glanced at Biali Haoxuan, but she ignored him and turned to Di Beichen. “Wait for me here for a while.”
Di Beichen nodded slightly, “Go on.”
He already knew Baili Hongzhuang’s plan. The reason that she did not make any problems for Baili Zhentao today was because she had grown up in the general’s house, and also mainly because of Qin Yayun.
Baili Haoxuan’s face was a bit ugly when he realized that Baili Hongzhuang was ignoring him, but he still dared not speak.
“General Baili, lets go inside,” Baili Hongzhuang said slowly.
Listening to the name that Baili Hongzhuang called out, Baili Zhentao knew that she had not forgiven him. His face looked slightly lost, and it was completely different from usual. “Okay.”
Inside the house.
Baili Zhentao was seated opposite Baili Hongzhuang. He was now very uncomfortable whenever he faced her. This was a change that he himself had not even realized.
The room was silent, and the atmosphere slightly tense. Baili Hongzhuang was the first to open her mouth and say, “General Baili, I am here to tell you something.”
“Go on,” Baili Zhentao nodded his head.
“I am actually not your daughter,” when the words came out, Baili Zhentao’s face suddenly changed. He was confused and the difference between the old Baili Hongzhuang and the new was too obvious. Was the woman in front of him not the real Baili Hongzhuang?
“Who are you?”
Baili Hongzhuang waved her hand and explained, “General Baili, you’ve misunderstood. I really am Baili Hongzhuang, but I am just not your child.”
“In the beginning, Mrs Qin wanted to win your affection by pretending to be pregnant. Truth was that she wasn’t with child, I am just a child she picked up and raised.”
“How is this possible?” Baili Zhentao looked at Baili Hongzhuang with shock, he could not believe that what she said was the truth.
The look on Baili Hongzhuang’s face was casual as she continued, “You had not seen her since the moment she said she had become pregnant, so the lie was not seen through. In fact, I also first learned about this when I was sorting through Mrs Qin’s heirlooms. Her diary stated everything very clearly, I believe it cannot be fake.”
