Chapter 902 The fox’s tail can no longer be hidden.
After hearing what Elder Bai said, Elder Tang frowned slightly, and a hint of doubt flashed in his turbid old eyes.
He stretched out his hand to stop it: "Elder Bai, the banquet hasn't started yet, and the 'Thousand Years of Drunk' specially prepared by the Ximen family hasn't been served yet..."
"This elder will be back soon!" Elder Bai interrupted hurriedly, with a hint of impatience in his voice.
Then, as if realizing his mistake, he forced a smile.
Then he turned around and prepared to leave his seat and walked towards the door of the banquet hall.
Su Chenyin took in the whole scene, her red lips slightly curled up, revealing a meaningful smile.
Her slender fingers tapped lightly on the table, and the rhythm matched the music of the musician in the hall.
"The fox's tail can no longer be hidden..." she whispered, with a hunter's sharp light flashing in her eyes.
When Bai Luoying saw that Elder Bai was about to leave, she immediately stood up from her seat.
Her face instantly changed into a coquettish expression, but a shrewd calculation flashed in her eyes.
She walked to Elder Bai, grabbed his sleeve, and said in a voice so sweet that honey could drip out: "Grandpa~"
This call made Elder Bai's body pause, and his back visibly stiffened for a moment.
He turned around slowly and forced a smile on his face: "Ying'er, what's wrong?"
Bai Luoying's eyes sparkled with tears, and her red lips pouted slightly: "Grandpa, I just accidentally ate too much and my stomach is so bloated now. I need to go to the bathroom now."
"But I'm not familiar with the Ximen family's mansion. There are winding paths everywhere. I'd be really scared if I walked alone."
As she spoke, she twisted the corners of her clothes nervously with her fingers, looking very pitiful. "Grandpa, please come with me, okay?"
As she spoke, she gently shook Elder Bai's arm, her eyes full of expectation and dependence.
Anyone who sees her cute and innocent look will feel soft-hearted, but those who are familiar with her know that this is just her usual trick.
When Elder Bai heard this, his brows frowned slightly.
He knew that this girl had always been willful and reckless. Now at such a critical moment, he must not let her ruin things!
With his eyes flashing, he glanced at Ji Qingxu who was chatting and laughing with the guests, and then looked at his granddaughter who was acting coquettishly in front of him, and the veins on his forehead were throbbing slightly.
"Ying'er, let the maid accompany you..." He lowered his voice with a hint of warning in his tone.
"No!" Bai Luoying suddenly raised her voice, attracting the attention of guests at several nearby tables.
Tears quickly gathered in her eyes, "I want Grandpa to accompany me! Last time at the Zhang family, those maids bullied me..."
Elder Bai's face changed, and he quickly covered her mouth: "Keep your voice down!"
He looked around and saw that everyone's attention was drawn to him, so he had to force a smile and said, "Please forgive the child for making trouble."
After hesitating for a moment, he realized that if he did not agree to his granddaughter's request, given her stubborn temper, she might cause a big mess at the banquet.
He finally nodded helplessly, sighed and said, "Okay, Ying'er, then grandpa will accompany you."
When Bai Luoying saw that her goal had been achieved, a smug smile immediately appeared on her face.
However, there was a hint of cunning in her smile that was hardly noticeable.
She held Elder Bai's arm affectionately and said in a tender voice, "Grandpa is the best!"
Jun Yijue watched this scene coldly, his thin lips curled up in a sarcastic arc: "You know how to pick the time."
His slender fingers gently stroked the edge of the wine glass, and his eyes were cold.
Su Chenyin chuckled, a strand of black hair entwined on her fingertips: "One is willful and reckless, the other is guilty. They are a perfect match."
She followed the departing figures of the grandparents and grandchildren, her eyes thoughtful.
Bai Luoying was seen happily holding Elder Bai's arm and walking out of the hall together.
Elder Bai's steps were a little hurried, and the hem of his wide robe fluttered with his movements, revealing his inner anxiety.
Bai Luoying followed him, skipping and jumping, looking around from time to time. She seemed innocent, but in fact her eyes were rolling around and no one knew what she was thinking.
Su Chenyin saw all of this.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she immediately winked at Jun Yijue.
Jun Yijue understood what he meant and nodded slightly.
His bony fingers gracefully picked up a crystal clear grape and slowly began to peel it.
The purple juice stained his white jade-like fingertips, revealing a somewhat enchanting beauty.
"Yinyin, open your mouth. I'll cut it open for you."
He handed the peeled grapes to Su Chenyin's mouth. His voice was low and gentle, forming a sharp contrast with the coldness in his eyes.
Su Chenyin had a faint smile on her lips. She opened her red lips and gently bit the grapes that Jun Yijue handed to her.
She bit the plump grape lightly between her teeth, the juice overflowed, and the sweet taste spread on the tip of her tongue.
The tip of her small tongue accidentally brushed against Jun Yijue's fingertips, causing the man's eyes to darken.
But Su Chenyin's mind at the moment was not on these delicious grapes at all.
Ever since she made a contract with the heart of the Cang Ming Realm, every blade of grass and every tree in the Cang Ming Realm have been like her loyal subjects, submitting to her.
She can feel their joys and sorrows, and can control their life and death.
While savoring the sweetness, she quietly circulated her spiritual consciousness to establish a closer connection with the center of the Cang Ming Realm.
"Fenfen, let me see where that grandparents and grandchildren are going..." She called softly in her heart, and ripples appeared in the sea of consciousness.
In an instant, her spiritual consciousness was like an invisible net, spreading rapidly to every corner of the Ximen family with great force.
The flow of spiritual energy, the formation nodes, and the secret door mechanisms in the mansion were all clearly presented in her perception.
This feeling of being in control of everything made the corners of her lips rise unconsciously.
Every blade of grass and every tree in the Ximen family, every ancient brick and stone, every faint fluctuation of spiritual energy, all appeared in her mind without omission like clear images.
She "saw" Elder Bai taking Bai Luoying through the winding corridors, avoiding the patrolling guards, and rushing towards somewhere in the Ximen family.
"Ajue, let's see what Elder Bai and Bai Luoying are up to." Su Chenyin said softly, his eyes flashing with wisdom and curiosity.
Her slender fingers gently drew circles on the table, and each circle brought about an almost imperceptible fluctuation of spiritual power.
Jun Yijue nodded slightly, his eyes always following Su Chenyin's every move.
He reached out and tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear, and his fingertips brushed lightly across her delicate cheek.
"Do you need me to follow you?" he asked in a low voice, with a hint of danger in his voice.
Su Chenyin shook her head, her red lips curled up into a mysterious smile: "No need, we'll just watch the show here."
As she spoke, she tapped her temple with her fingertips, "I have made a contract with Jie Xin. With Fanfen here, nothing they do can escape my eyes."
