Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 69

Chapter 69: Chapter 68: Swear Not to Return_1

Bai Jinzhi, her eyes bloodshot, gripped the long whip at her waist. Burning with fury, she wished she could whip these foolish troublemakers to death in front of the Duke’s residence.

Seeing the crowd of onlookers surrounding the manor, Bai Jinxiu beside her felt an anxious thumping in her heart.

“Fourth Sister, don’t!” Bai Jinxiu quickly grasped Bai Jinzhi’s hand, preventing her from unleashing the whip. “These people are causing trouble at our Duke’s residence. They might be plotting something. We can’t act impulsively!”

“Your Bai family produced no coward! On the battlefield, you Bai family were always victorious. But your victories were bought with the lives of our common sons!” A woman cried out, “A general’s success requires thousands of bones! With a command, our sons rushed to the blades! Your losses were never yours! How would you know our pain?! The Duke only seeks military achievements and a place in history, using our sons’ lives for your glory!”

“My poor son!” Another woman wailed, angrily screaming, “The Duke has no shame! All you Bai family men deserve to die in the Southern Border! It was your Bai family who killed our sons!”

“Sprouting nonsense again!” Bai Jinzhi flung Bai Jinxiu aside with brute force, raising her whip towards the wailing woman. “You deserve to die! I’ll whip you to death today!”

“Bai Jinzhi!” Bai Jinxiu held Bai Jinzhi back with all her strength, the wound on her forehead splitting open and bleeding profusely.

“You’re a coward who gets bullied! I’m not!” Bai Jinzhi’s eyes were crimson as she roared at Bai Jinxiu, pushing her away in fury.

The whip cracked in the air, and the woman’s scream was shrill.

“Little Four! Stop!” Already injured, Bai Jinxiu was pushed against the wall by Bai Jinzhi, pain throbbing in her head.

Qingshu was frantic, “Fourth Miss, how can you fight Second Miss? Second Miss… are you alright?”

Bai Qingyan quickened her steps, gripping her plain clothes as she stepped up. Seeing Bai Jinzhi, eyes red and ready to whip the woman to death, she shouted, “Bai Jinzhi! Stop!” Turning sharply, she ordered, “Uncle Ping, restrain Fourth Miss!”

Lu Ping rushed forward, taking a whip lash himself before restraining the infuriated Bai Jinzhi, who screamed madly like a demon, repeatedly breaking free from Lu Ping’s hold, seeming ready to perish with the accusers of the Duke’s residence.

The woman, her face marked by the whip, showed fear and defensiveness but retorted, “If the Duke is dead, how could my son be alive?!” _{freewebnσvel.cøm}
