Chương 55: Chapter 55: The Disappearing Woman

"This..." Su Tingting finally figured it out, "That child belonged to the woman who died. Master Bai kidnapped her to extort her, this... this Master Bai is such a beast!"

Originally, Su Tingting had thought that the Feng Family was already beastly enough for paying silver to buy Xi Yao's life, but it turned out that Master Bai was even worse. Unwilling to part with his daughter, but also unwilling to relinquish the silver promised by the Feng Family, he found someone to pose as Xi Yao and sell herself to the Feng Family. In this way, he got the silver and kept his daughter safe—a perfect solution, killing two birds with one stone.

With this understanding, everything made sense. No wonder as soon as they got the silver, the Bai Family Stage troupe made a run for it. If Master Feng discovered the truth, wouldn't he flay their skins!
