I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family

Chapter 793: Chapter 723 I’m Jealous of You

Bai Zhi hung up the phone and then continued eating. It was already late, and now deep into the night.

Standing on the second floor, Bai Zhi looked out at the lights in the village. A few years ago, who would have thought the village would transform into what it was today?

Something not even imaginable in a past life, truly wonderful.

“Bang bang bang…”

Just then, the door was hammered loudly, and Bai Zhi walked over and opened it to see Fat Aunt standing there.

“Bai Zhi, do you know when your Fat Uncle will be able to come back? They’re saying your Fat Uncle is going to be put in jail.”

Fat Aunt was sobbing inconsolably, she had never imagined her old man could get into trouble. Who knew that they just wanted to build a Horror House, and then this would happen?

“It won’t happen, as long as Uncle hasn’t done anything wrong. Auntie, you must believe that the country won’t just arrest people for no reason, right?”

Bai Zhi hurriedly comforted her.

“Although your Uncle looks fierce and intimidating, he’s actually very timid at heart, and he would definitely never do anything wrong. Believe me, Auntie, believe me.”

Fat Aunt felt as though the sky was falling; she used to laugh at others, never expecting that one day her own husband would be in trouble.

“Auntie, don’t panic. Think carefully, what did that prop seller look like? You have a good memory, tell me, and I’ll have Moh Li sketch it out, and then we can take it to the police station. What do you think?”

Bai Zhi suddenly remembered that despite being a gossip, Fat Aunt had a good memory—it was an event from only a week ago, yet she could recount it as if it happened yesterday.

“Yes, yes, yes, I remember, I remember, hurry, hurry, hurry. Please help your Auntie.”

Fat Aunt hurried inside and started describing to Moh Li what the person looked like.

When she’d finished, Moh Li had already completed the sketch on the paper, and it looked just like the real thing.

When Bai Zhi saw it, she felt it seemed familiar, but she couldn’t quite place where she had seen it before.

It was not until Bai Xiang returned from patrolling the village that she remembered—nowadays, the villagers voluntarily patrol for everyone’s and the tourists’ safety.

“What are you doing drawing in the middle of the night?”

Bai Xiang also knew about the incident, which is why he had gone to patrol once again. When he returned, he saw them drawing.

“This is what Fat Aunt described, the man who sold them the tools.”

Bai Zhi showed the drawing to Bai Xiang, and at that moment, Bai Xiang was stunned.

“This is my uncle.”

Bai Zhi suddenly realized, no wonder she found it somewhat familiar. They called Bai Dan again, intending to apprehend someone in Li Family Village at noon, but he had been rushed to the hospital, completely drunk and unconscious.

Here the trail broke again.

“I’ll go over, Grandpa. I’ll go and take a look. It’s just drunkenness, I’ll come with Moh Li.”

Bai Zhi and Moh Li didn’t know how many times they’d been running back and forth, but they were constantly on the move, with Bai Xiang in charge of staying home.

Just before they left, Bai Xiang suddenly spoke up.

“Xingxing, Bai Fei is going to study abroad. If possible, come see her tomorrow when you get back.”

Bai Zhi’s footsteps paused, remembering her cousin who had once given her warmth.

“Okay,” Bai Zhi did not hesitate.

This time they went to the hospital, where the medical team was in the midst of an emergency, dealing with alcohol poisoning. Bai Zhi and Moh Li immediately entered.

Bai Zhi felt his pulse, while Moh Li also checked the equipment.

“Poisoned.”

Bai Zhi directly spoke to Moh Li, then took out the Golden Needle and began to insert needles into several of his acupoints.

The doctors on the side were all stunned.

“If something happens, we won’t take responsibility.”

Someone tried to come over, but they were immediately blocked by the younger brothers who had come with them.

The heart that had originally stopped beating was resuscitated; everyone was stunned by this sight.

“How could this be, how could this have happened? It’s too unbelievable.”

Even the attending doctor was astonished. A man who had certainly died was alive again. A case of suspended animation?

But Bai Zhi didn’t have time to ponder these questions; she could only hurry to think of a solution.

After he woke up, he would need to continue taking medication. Fortunately, she carried Detoxification Pills with her. Although these weren’t specific for his condition, at least they could detoxify him.

Not long after he took them, he woke up.

Meanwhile, Bai Dan and the others had found Li Sisi who was in the process of making the hypnosis Medicine Powder.

They captured her in one swoop.

When she was caught, she saw Bai Dan among the crowd and sneered coldly, “Uncle, so Bai Guang really did lie to me, didn’t he?”

“He never lied to you.”

Bai Guang had never deceived Li Sisi; the most he did was keep her in the dark.

“Heh…” To her, it was all the same—lack of trust. Fortunately, she had had her own agenda from the start, so it all evened out.

Back at the hospital, the patient was saved. Having experienced the brink of death, he no longer dared to think of dying. He was very cooperative and promised to confess everything as long as he could stay alive.

Dawn broke…

That night and day were exceedingly nerve-wracking. Bai Zhi and Moh Li didn’t go back but napped for a few hours in the county town.

When Bai Guang arrived, he didn’t say a word and rushed in, eager to see Li Sisi.

Bai Fei also came along, but she didn’t go inside, unsure of how to face the situation. Her mother had done something so bizarre.

Bai Xiang said, just pretend she never returned. But Bai Fei couldn’t do that. She sat outside the police station with Bai Zhi, each holding a bottle of orange soda.

In recent years, there had been more and more beverages available, and actually, orange soda was a bit outdated. But they each had a bottle and didn’t mind the dirty steps; they just sat down.

“Bai Zhi, I was jealous of you before.”

After saying this, Bai Fei took a big gulp of soda and looked up at the sky in an exaggerated manner, as if doing so would prevent tears from falling from her eyes.

“I know.”

Then Bai Fei realized that was impossible, so she took another sip and pretended to choke.

“I know, I liked our senior, and he didn’t like me. It had nothing to do with you.

I also know that I went too far. You were so kind to me, and I didn’t appreciate it.

I know even more that when I was oblivious, you endured so much.

People say how close we were before and how a man could bring us to this point.

But it’s not because of the man, it’s because I have become jealous of you.”

It wasn’t because of the senior or because she couldn’t let go; it was simply because, at some point, she started being jealous of Xingxing.

She began to be jealous of her good luck, her everything.

Only now did she realize how many times Bai Zhi had hovered between life and death.

The tranquil demeanor she showed hid many instances of bloodshed and turmoil.

“I always felt you all left me behind, becoming excellent on your own, but I never knew what you went through.

Xingxing, did I greatly disappoint you?

I envied, was jealous, and hated; I am just a selfish person, and I don’t deserve to be your cousin.

I said I would protect you forever, but I broke my promise.”
