When Imperial Censor Bai sees Bai Xueying’s appearance at this time, he suddenly falls into a trance. Bai Xueying looks impulsive and shrewish, but she is a weak girl anyway. Why is she so stubborn ?
In fact, sometimes Imperial Censor Bai feels that he has never seen through his second daughter. But one thing that Imperial Censor Bai can be sure of is that what Bai Xueying does is all for herself.
It leads to the fact that Bai Xueying is not as satisfactory as her elder sister Bai Feifei in the eyes of her father, who is the head of the house. Naturally, she will not get so much love and better resources as her sister does.
The ugly fact is that in Imperial Censor Bai’s opinion, if Bai Xueying could get glory, wealth, power and status, she would not hesitate at all to give up the whole Bai family, all of them, for her own sake.
It is precisely because he knows that Bai Xueying can do such a thing, when Imperial Censor Bai trusts Bai Xueying with some tasks, he will also guard against her to a certain extent so that she cannot get too high status and too much power. It seems that only in this way can he get some hold on this teenage daughter of his.
Maybe it sounds exaggerating, but Imperial Censor Bai is always a cautious person. He will stifle all the uncertain factors in the cradle. In other words, he is typical of rather killing all by mistake than letting one go.
“You should know why I asked you to come here.” Collecting his feelings, Imperial Censor Bai knocks on the table gently and finally opens his mouth.
Bai Xueying’s lips have become purple, but she endures the discomfort and answers, “Yes, father.”
Even with fear in her heart, Bai Xueying doesn’t show a single sign of her nervousness. Her voice is still steady as if nothing had happened.
Seeing Bai Xueying like this, Imperial Censor Bai could not help frowning. The anger in his heart surges up again. He pounds the table and shouts, “Yes?! Yes! Did you take me as your father when you did this kind of thing under my nose?”
Bai Xueying lowers her head and whispers, “Don’t put it like that, father, please. I dare not do that.”
Seeing Bai Xueying like this, Imperial Censor Bai only feels the anger trapped in his chest, but he is unable to vent it on her. All of a sudden, he feels a little ill.
“Dare or not, you’ve done it. Now I ask just you, do you admit your mistake?” Imperial Censor Bai finally says with some helplessness.
In fact, he has never intended to punish Bai Xueying by calling her over here. He did this just to teach her a lesson and let her restrain herself in front of him.
After all, no matter what plans Bai Xueying has, the person in charge of Bai’s family is still sitting here. It’s not her turn to play any tricks here yet.
Actually what Bai Xueying has done has, to a certain extent, challenged Imperial Censor Bai’s authority.
It is a little too much to say this, but Imperial Censor Bai cannot tolerate even a minor trend of it.
“I know I’ve made a mistake…” Bai Xueying lowers her head respectfully.
On hearing this, Imperial Censor Bai feels a little better. He didn’t intend to punish Bai Xueying actually. But if she keeps being stubborn and doesn’t give her father a step down, Imperial Censor Bai would have no choice but to punish her.
Fortunately, Bai Xueying is a witty person who knows what to do in a delicate situation after all. She doesn’t show her stubbornness on this occasion. Otherwise, Imperial Censor Bai would have a stroke for being angry with her.
“But I did this because I had my own consideration.” Bai Xueying finishes her words.
Hearing this, Imperial Censor Bai is enraged again.
To the final analysis, Bai Xueying should not have gone beyond her father and have done something on her own will no matter for what reason.
Even if Bai Yiyi was indeed of no account in the Bai family, she was also Imperial Censor Bai’s own daughter and Bai Xueying’s biological sister.
Now Imperial Censor Bai is still in charge and Bai Xueying dares to murder her own sister. If Imperial Censor Bai gets old and retires, won’t Bai Xueying dare to kill her father?
In fact, this is the biggest concern in Imperial Censor Bai’s heart, but Bai Xueying hasn’t taken this into consideration.
Maybe Bai Xueying was being too confident that she would have a way to calm Imperial Censor Bai down, but she didn’t expect that Imperial Censor Bai has arrived at such an age as to consider the things in his future aging years. What Bai Xueying did this time indeed has gone too far, which has touched the bottom line of Imperial Censor Bai.
Imperial Censor Bai directly throws the book on the table in front of Bai Xueying and says bluntly, “You have your own consideration?! Then have you ever considered me, your father? Will you kill me if you have another consideration someday?”
Bai Xueying was at a loss when she first realized that Imperial Censor Bai really got upset. However, after hearing this, Bai Xueying suddenly realizes that she did have said something wrong just now.
“Father, it’s just a slip of the tongue. I didn’t mean that. It’s really my fault. I hadn’t discuss it with you before I did it.” Bai Xueying pretends to be afraid. Knocking her head on the ground, she repeatedly admits her mistake.
Imperial Censor Bai naturally knows clearly about Bai Xueying’s actions—a little sincerity and a little pretence as well. But since he has achieved the effect, it is enough.
Now he can still manage these things, which he won’t be able to in the future. Now he is doing this just to warn Bai Xueying not to be so reckless as to ignore his authority.
Even if Bai Xueying is not satisfied in her heart, she absolutely dares not make another attempt. Because she is very clear that if Imperial Censor Bai really wanted to get rid of her, it was no more difficult than her killing Bai Yiyi.
However, Imperial Censor Bai is her father after all, who would not kill her if she did do something again. But even if he let her live, it would be impossible for Bai Xueying to get the same power and status as now.
However, Bai Xueying attaches great importance to these things. If she lost all these and dragged out an ignoble existence, she would prefer to die.
She wants to be a person above the others both in wealth and power. She cannot stand being oppressed by others. This has always been the creed of conduct in Bai Xueying’s life, and also the reason that keeps her climbing up.
