Chapter 429: Do You Think She’s Pitiful?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

That pleasant and seductive voice sounded numb and extremely charming, making Shen Yaowei’s bones soften.

She couldn’t wait to see what kind of beauty could have such a seductive voice. Shen Yaowei got out of the carriage and saw a girl.

The girl was dressed in white and looked like a holy snow lotus standing in the wind. Her delicate appearance was especially pitiful.

She seemed to be from General Baili’s family. Not only was she dressed plainly, but there was also a small white flower pinned to her black hair.

There were no accessories on her body, and she had no makeup, making it look like she had been crying for the past few days. The corners of her eyes were red, making her look pitiful.

Shen Yaowei looked at the girl and couldn’t help but feel a little strange when she saw that she was only 16 or 17 years old.

She remembered her father saying that General Baili was already over 40 years old. It was because he had been fighting on the battlefield all year and was so seriously injured that he couldn’t completely recover that he had no choice but to retreat.

General Baili had lost his loved one early on, so he had never married in his life, let alone had such a big daughter.

In that case, where did this girl come from?

The girl felt Shen Yaowei’s gaze and looked up with her long and narrow peach blossom eyes. The moment her eyes met Shen Yaowei’s, a stream of light flashed across her eyes, and she was actually a little excited.

Shen Yaowei was very puzzled.

Before she could probe further, Yao Qingyi, who was in the lead, looked at the girl and asked in confusion, “Miss, please forgive my poor eyesight. May 1 know who you are from the Baili family?”

“My name is Baili Se, and I’m Baili Hui’s distant cousin. Our family members have all had short lives. My parents passed away five years ago, and I’ve been struggling to survive ever since. Later, when my cousin learned about my situation, he brought me back home to take care of me. Since I’ve only recently arrived, many people don’t know me. But it was I who wrote a letter to His Majesty, requesting assistance for my brother,” Baili Se spoke of Baili Hui, her eyes filled with profound sadness. “My brother died while trying to save others, and his lingering attachment has left his spirit restless. I implore you all to show mercy and help my brother find peace.”

At the end of her sentence, she was already choking. She bent her knees and was about to kneel down to Yao Qingyi.

Yao Qingyi quickly helped her up. “Miss Baili, you can’t! We’re all very saddened by General Baili’s tragic death. We came this time to help. This is what we should do. Please rest assured, Miss Baili.”

Baili Se thanked him profusely. Bean-sized tears rolled out of her eyes and wet her long eyelashes. Everyone around her looked at her with unconcealed pity.

Shen Yaowei was moved. She couldn’t bear to see such a delicate beauty sad. As soon as she looked away, she realized that Cang Ye was staring at Baili Se expressionlessly.

Cang Ye was different from them. There was no pity in his eyes, but a hint of disdain.

Shen Yaowei lowered her voice in confusion and asked Cang Ye, “What’s with your expression? Do you have anything against Miss Baili?”

“Do you think she’s very pitiful?” Cang Ye’s voice was very soft. Only he and Shen Yaowei could hear him.

Shen Yaowei was stunned by the question. She thought for a moment and asked in disbelief, “Isn’t she pitiful?”

The pain of losing her beloved must have tormented her.

Cang Ye didn’t answer Shen Yaowei immediately. He just looked at her steadily, his eyes filled with an unfathomable light.

Shen Yaowei didn’t understand and felt uncomfortable under his gaze.

“I hope so,” Cang Ye said calmly. Then, he followed Yao Qingyi and the others into the Baili Mansion..
