A Girl and Her Best Friends Time Travel to Ancient Times-Chapter 11: Is This putting them under house arrest
Chapter 11
In the bathing room.
Su Mo and Sang Li were lying in the bathtub, leisurely soaking in the bath.
"Ah..." Su Mo let out a long sigh, happily pouring water on her arms, "So comfortable..."
Sang Li sat quietly in the bathtub, seemingly still lost in thought.
"Mo Mo, I have an idea, but I'm not too sure about it," Sang Li suddenly said.
"What idea?" Su Mo looked at the flower petals in her hand and murmured to herself, "So people in ancient times liked to bathe with flower petals."
"Mo Mo, stop playing around," Sang Li patted her hand, "It's something important."
Seeing her so serious, Su Mo finally sobered up, "Sister Li, what's the matter? I see you've been distracted."
Sang Li looked around and moved closer to whisper in her ear, "I suspect...Xiao Han and Miao Miao are at the Bai family."
"What?" Su Mo turned to look at her in surprise, "How do you know?"
"Just a guess, but I'm not too sure. The Bai family should have seen people dressed like us before, so I find it very strange that they didn't mention anything at all. I also didn't dare to ask rashly," Sang Li said.
"Why don't we just ask Bai Yunhan? I feel like he's quite nice!"
Sang Li hesitated, "I'll try to probe him when there's an opportunity."
After bathing, they saw two dresses placed on a nearby stand, one red and one white.
"Sister Li, you should wear the white one, it suits you very well," Su Mo said.
"Okay."
The two put on the dresses and glanced at each other, breaking into smiles at the same time.
Su Mo looked Sang Li up and down and said, "Sister Li, you look too good in ancient costume! With your long straight black hair, add a hairstyle, and you'll be... the number one aloof beauty in Jianghu! Hahaha..."
Sang Li walked over to her and lifted Su Mo's chin with a half-smile, her voice charming and seductive, "Little hot chili, surrender to your sister?"
"Ah! I'm bent!" Su Mo acted out collapsing onto Sang Li's shoulder, "Sister, you're killing me!"
"Alright, enough with the mutual flattery!" Sang Li laughed and pushed her away, "Everything needs moderation."
"Hehe..."
The two tidied up and left the bathing room. When they returned to the guest room, the doctor whom Ah Yi had invited was already at the Bai house.
As the two entered Wu Ying's room, they saw that the door was open and Bai Yunhan was also inside.
"Young Master Bai..."
Bai Yunhan turned his head and saw Su Mo and Sang Li walk in from the door.
Sang Li was dressed in white, aloof and transcendent. Bai Yunhan's gaze fell on her and lingered for a long time.
Su Mo wore a red dress, passionate as fire. Her head of brown curly hair cascaded down, adding a touch of exotic beauty.
Wu Ying looked up at Su Mo, attracted by her uniqueness. His eyes darkened for a moment before he withdrew his gaze.
"Doctor, how is he? Are his injuries alright?" Su Mo walked over to stand beside the doctor.
The doctor took Wu Ying's pulse and stroked his long white beard. He slowly said, "The external injuries are nothing to worry about. The internal injuries need good recuperation. However... this young master seems to be poisoned as well?"
Wu Ying retracted his hand, "Doctor, just prescribe me some medicine to recuperate internal injuries. Don't worry about the rest."
"How can that be? He said you're poisoned, how can we not care about it?" Su Mo immediately said, "Doctor, what poison is it? Can it be cured?"
Wu Ying looked at Su Mo, his eyes filled with aloofness. "It's none of your business!"
Su Mo, "......"
"Why are you acting so arrogant for no reason!" Su Mo put her hands on her hips and glared at him discontentedly.
"Since it's like this, doctor, please just prescribe some medicine to treat his internal injuries first," Bai Yunhan timely said at the side.
"Alright."
After the doctor left, Sang Li walked over to Bai Yunhan and said, "Young Master Bai, I...would like to ask a favor."
"Please go ahead, Miss Sang."
"Actually, we have two other friends who got separated from us midway. I wonder if Young Master Bai can help us find them? We are unfamiliar with this place, so it's rather difficult for us to look for them."
Bai Yunhan paused. What Sang Li said was almost exactly the same as what Wang Fu had asked before.
But there was one difference. Sang Li said China Town, while the other two said Jiuzhou City.
"Miss Sang, my family has something going on recently and I'll probably be very busy. Let me get someone to help you find your friends after I settle my matters," Bai Yunhan said after some thought.
Sang Li paused, "Alright, thank you, Young Master Bai."
After Bai Yunhan left, Su Mo immediately ran over to grab Sang Li's arm and whispered, "Sister Li, what does he mean? Has he not seen Xiao Han and Miao Miao before?"
"I wonder what's happening in the Bai family..."
"Old Master Bai died," Wu Ying's voice suddenly rang out.
The two looked at Wu Ying in surprise, "Old Master Bai? Bai Yunhan's grandfather?"
"No, his father. He was killed," Wu Ying's tone was completely flat, as if death was a common occurrence to him.
Sang Li's expression became grave.
That afternoon, the news of Old Master Bai's death spread throughout Lan City.
The Bai family and the Li family were the wealthiest households in Lan City. Old Master Bai's sudden death undoubtedly caused a sensation.
Everyone was discussing about which person would eventually take over the Bai family's businesses.
Rumor has it that Bai family's eldest young master only knew how to read and had no business acumen. The Bai family would definitely be thrown into turmoil.
That evening, Old Master Bai's funeral hall was set up and the entire Bai family was in grief.
Out of courtesy, Su Mo and Sang Li originally wanted to go to the funeral hall to offer incense for Old Master Bai, but were stopped by the people arranged by Wang Fu outside their guest room.
"The two young ladies need not go over. This is the Bai family's private affair. After the young master settles his matters, he will naturally come to find you."
Sang Li frowned. Were they under soft detention?
"What, we can't even leave the room?" Su Mo asked.
"The Bai family is holding funeral arrangements. Do the two young ladies still wish to go out and wander about?"
"......"
