Tao Congrong had originally planned to teach Bai Li Hongzhuang a lesson. How dare this insignificant woman challenge their Miss? It's simply seeking death!
However, when Tao Congrong saw Bai Li Hongzhuang, she couldn't say a word. This Bai Li Hongzhuang seemed completely different from what Miss described. Her demeanor was on par with Miss, and she had nothing to do with the image of a countryside girl.
"Emperor Big Brother, you're back," Han Xilin said with a joyful smile, walking directly to Emperor Beichen's side as if seeing her beloved return. She completely ignored Bai Li Hongzhuang's presence.
However, no one noticed the cold glint in Han Xilin's eyes when she saw Emperor Beichen and Bai Li Hongzhuang holding hands. In this moment, she didn't want to lose to Bai Li Hongzhuang. She immediately held Emperor Beichen's arm.
Seeing Han Xilin's actions since she appeared, Bai Li Hongzhuang maintained a faint smile on her lips, as if Han Xilin's actions had nothing to do with her. Han Xilin's attempt to ignore and dominate was undoubtedly an attempt to provoke her and make her do something that would damage her image.
This kind of trickery might be something a sixteen-year-old girl would do, but she wouldn't. Noticing Han Xilin's actions, Emperor Beichen furrowed his brow and quietly withdrew his hand when Han Xilin held onto him.
Han Xilin's face instantly turned unpleasant, as Emperor Beichen's attitude undoubtedly made her lose face in front of everyone.
This scene didn't escape anyone's eyes. At this moment, everyone understood that everything was real. Emperor Beichen didn't like Han Xilin; he liked Bai Li Hongzhuang!
"Emperor Big Brother," Han Xilin looked at Emperor Beichen with a somewhat disappointed expression. She had never let go of her pride like this before, but Emperor Beichen's attitude towards her was truly heartbreaking.
Emperor Beichen understood Han Xilin's distress, but once you make a decision, you have to stick with it, even if it causes confusion. Since the moment he pursued Bai Li Hongzhuang, he had already decided to take responsibility for her. He didn't want Han Xilin to continue her infatuation.
"Xilin, this is your sister-in-law," Emperor Beichen introduced.
Upon hearing those words, Han Xilin's expression froze. The last time they met, Emperor Beichen wasn't so direct. However, this time, Emperor Beichen openly said these words in front of all the disciples of Tian Gang Zong. It meant that he was completely cutting off her hopes.
Han Xilin's gaze couldn't help but fall on Bai Li Hongzhuang. She saw Bai Li Hongzhuang looking at her with a calm and ambiguous smile, which made her complexion even worse.
"Emperor Big Brother, you..." Feeling the gaze of everyone, Han Xilin truly didn't know what to say. She didn't expect Emperor Beichen to be so decisive right after they met. It was completely different from what she had imagined.
After witnessing this situation, Tao Congrong quickly spoke up, "Young Master, you know very well how Miss feels about you. How can you say such heartless words? Even though Bai Li Hongzhuang is stunning, it's a bit too much to treat Miss like this. Isn't it like rubbing salt in her wound?"
