Reborn as the spoiled male wife of the mortal enemy

Chapter 266 Bai Xun Learns the Truth About Xun Ling

"Because the Bai family is looking for a tomb, they are not just looking for the Bai family's ancestral tomb." Bai Song suddenly pushed the door open.

"Bai Song! What nonsense are you talking about?" Bai Yishui's face darkened. He didn't expect Bai Song to say this so directly.

"Grandfather, since you want to hand over the burden of the Bai family to Xundi, how can he do it when he doesn't know the reason?" Bai Song said as he patted the snow off his body.

Bai Xun looked puzzled: "Are you looking for more than just the Bai family's ancestral tomb?"

Is it possible...

Bai Xun's face turned pale: "The Bai family is... robbing tombs?"

Bo Song grinned: "Correct."

It turned out to be the case.

No wonder my grandfather was so afraid of Grandpa Nan’s betrayal that he even wanted to take action against Nanchun and his mother.

If you have done something wrong, you will be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door.

He wants to kill to silence the witness.

"Grandfather, is this true?" Bai Xun couldn't believe it.

Bai Yishui sighed and said, "In today's world, which wealthy family would do business honestly? If you don't do it, someone else will. If you don't do it, you can only watch your family decline."

Bai Xun frowned and said, "So Grandpa Nan went to Xinchuanling not to look for the Bai family's ancestral tomb, but to look for the underground fairy palace?"

"That's right. As long as we find the underground fairy palace, my Bai family will be able to prosper for more than a hundred years." Bai Yishui said.

"Did you also arrange for Zhen Mingzhu and the demon book?" Bai Xun asked.

"Yes, Nan Chenglin disappeared suddenly. I suspected that he noticed that I was suspicious of him, so he pretended to be dead and escaped. So, I wanted to test whether Nan Chun knew about this." Bai Yishui said truthfully.

Seeing Bai Xun's pale face, Bai Song patted his shoulder and said, "Brother Xun, this is... a last resort. Grave robbing and buying and selling funerary objects. If this gets out, it will bring disgrace to the Bai family and will also attract jackals, tigers and leopards to get a piece of the pie.

"Brother, I know it's hard for you to accept this right now. But over the past few years in He'an, Yangcheng, and Jincheng, you've met many people and seen many things. You should understand that today's world is a world without justice, without law, only the survival of the fittest, and unscrupulous pursuit of profit. If we don't do this, there will be only one outcome: death."

"But the Nan family should not be a stepping stone for us to seek benefits... Grandpa Nan has been fighting for the Bai family for so many years. Nanchun and his mother are all innocent." Bai Xun was a little emotional.

Bai Yishui sighed and said, "I didn't tell you these things because you are too upright and too soft-hearted. Now that we have touched the gate of the underground palace, we can't give it up just because of Nan Chenglin. This concerns the life and death of my Bai family. If he really betrays the Bai family, the Nan family will have no way out."

"If anything happens to Nanchun, I will not survive alone!" Bai Xun looked serious and looked straight at Bai Yishui.

"What did you say?" Bai Yishui opened his eyes wide, thinking he had misheard.

"If anything happens to Nanchun, I will not survive alone!" Bai Xun repeated word by word.

For a moment, shock and anger surged into Bai Yishui's chest, his chest heaved violently, and veins on his forehead bulged.

"You...are you crazy? How dare you say such a thing!"

"I love him deeply, and I only want to be with him in this life. If grandfather insists on attacking him, then kill me first." Bai Xun remained calm.

Bai Yishui was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. He picked up the teacup and wanted to throw it at Bai Xun. Seeing that Bai Xun didn't blink, didn't move, and didn't try to hide, he didn't have the heart to throw it at him. Instead, he threw it at his feet.

The teacup fell to the ground with a "bang" and broke into pieces.

Butler Bai at the door heard the noise and hurriedly pushed the door open.

"Hey, what's going on? Patriarch, calm down!"

"Grandfather, I am an unfilial grandson. I also know that I cannot bear the heavy responsibility of being the head of the Bai family." Bai Xun said with gritted teeth.

"How dare you threaten me?" Bai Yishui was so angry that he was shaking all over.

"Master! Medicine, here are the medicines for you! Second Young Master, please say less!" Butler Bai hurriedly took out the medicine from the drawer and poured a few pills for Bai Yishui to take.

"Get out!" Bai Yishui slammed the table heavily.

Bai Xun turned and left.

Seeing him leave without any reluctance, Bai Yishui felt angry and bitter.

Bo Song shrugged, sat down in a chair, and said slowly, "My grandson told you a long time ago not to keep it a secret from Xundi. Since you want him to take over the responsibility of the head of the family, you should let him know what our family is doing as early as I did."

"You've invited famous teachers to teach him a lot about propriety, integrity, benevolence, and morality. Someone who didn't know would think you wanted him to take the imperial examination and become a pillar of the country. Now, you're suddenly asking him to accept these things that are despised by gentlemen. How is that possible?"

"You have to accept it whether you like or not. How can he rebel?" Bai Yishui said with his eyes wide open.

Bai Song curled his lips and said, "You're just being stubborn! Don't you understand Xundi's temper? He's harder than a rock! You'll only push him further away. Who knows, one day he might take Nanchun's family and run away to a place you can't find. By then, you won't have found the Underground Palace, and you'll have no heir either."

Bai Yishui understood without Bai Song saying anything.

He knew Bai Xun too well.

If anything happens to Nanchun, he will not survive alone.

Since Bai Xun said this, it means there is no possibility of change.

The Bai family has always been cold and indifferent, but now they have a romantic heart.

Bai Yishui leaned back in his chair and sighed heavily.

On the way back to the villa, Bai Xun thought a lot.

When he was a child, Bai Xun once asked Nan Chenglin what the meaning of risking his life to find the tomb was.

Nan Chenglin smiled and said, "It's to allow the deceased to return to their roots, and for the living to have something to rest their thoughts on. The artifacts in those tombs carry the history of this land. Furthermore, many of the craftsmanship involved has been lost, and the Bai family has the ability to recreate it. If we can pass these ingenious techniques on to the world, it would be a great deed."

Bai Xun also believed this...

So when he looked at those exquisite imitations, he felt happy and proud.

totally unexpected……

There is something so dirty behind this!

Yes, if Grandpa Nan is really the kind of person who would betray the Bai family for a small profit, why doesn't he just go and rob graves himself? With his skills, it would be easy for him to make a fortune from those underground treasures.

But he didn't, he just worked wholeheartedly for the Bai family.

He must have chosen to betray the Bai family because he knew that the Bai family not only wanted to reproduce those manufacturing techniques, but also wanted to sell those underground treasures for improper profits, right?

He was a tomb seeker, but was deceived by the Bai family and became a tomb robber who helped the Bai family seize the underground treasures.

"Afu, stop the car." Bai Xun said in a hoarse voice.

"What's wrong, Second Young Master? We're almost home." Ah Fu asked in confusion.

Family?

If Nanchun knew about these dirty things, what would she think of him?

Bai Xun was feeling extremely ashamed at this moment.

He didn't know how to face Nanchun.
