Chapter 36: Black Bellied Bai Xiaochen III
It was a pity...
Just now, nobody had noticed the scene by the restaurant doorway and naturally, no one was able to stand out and be witness to Bai Zhi's innocence.
"Crown Prince, don't believe him. He is framing me!" Bai Zhi immediately turned to Nangong Yi as she anxiously explained.
"I'm not talking nonsense." Bai Xiaochen's eyes were full of tears. Even if his face was dirty, his gaze was still pitiful that it made one feel heartache. "If you hadn't pushed me, Xiao Mi wouldn't have scratched you."
"Meow."
Xiao Mi proudly raised its small head, waving its claws as if showing off.
At this moment, more and more people were gathering at the restaurant doorway. Under the pointing of those people, Bai Zhi was so anxious that she was about to cry.
"Bai Zhi, you've truly made me too disappointed!" Nangong Yi waved his sleeve as his said coldly. "This young boy has no enmity with you. Why would he frame you? Furthermore, he's only five or six years old. How could such a young child have such deep schemes like you said?"
Bai Zhi's face turned pale as she bit hard on the bottom of her lip which was trembling slightly.
"Of the Bai family's daughters, none can compare to Ruo'er. Firstly there was Bai Yan, that despicable person who did not keep the ways of a wife, and then there's you, who does not even let off a child!"
Nangong Yi was only concerned about lecturing Bai Zhi but did not notice that when he was insulting Bai Yan, the eyes of the little boy who initially looked pitiful immediately lit up with rage.
However, thinking about today's aim, he lowered his head, not allowing anyone to take a clear look at the anger within his eyes. His slightly moving shoulders would only make people think that he was crying.
"Your Highness, Crown Prince, listen to me explain first..." Bai Zhi was so anxious that she was about to grab Nangong Yi's hand, but was ruthless shaken off by him.
