Qingfeng continued to pressure him by asking, "Yes?"
Lin Yue had used all his intelligence from several lifetimes.
Suddenly, he had an idea and said in a panic, "You'll know if you ask Madam Bai." With that, he quickly fled, afraid that Qingfeng would stop him and continue asking.
Qingfeng stood where she was and watched him escape, but the smile in her eyes was never discovered by Lin Yue.
When Bai Wutong saw Lin Yue running back, before she could go over and dig up more, Lin Yue shouted at the sky and plunged into the water tank where she kept her goldfish.
"Whoosh—"
The water in the water tank suddenly overflowed. Lin Yue buried his head in it and breathed bubbles.
It was as if he had been provoked.
Bai Wutong sighed. Thinking that his confession had failed, she couldn't be bothered to ask, lest she hit a nerve and he was provoked again.
After a while, Qingfeng and a few dark guards returned with wooden stakes.
