Bai Xiao and Bai Yue treated Bai Jianguo as if he were invisible—it wasn't that Bai Xiao didn't want to leave, but a family quarrel like this was a dramatic spectacle not to be missed. Curiosity was human nature, and Bai Xiao was no exception. After all, it was a scene he had orchestrated; it would be a pity not to watch it unfold.
