Black-Silk Little Sister Instantly Turns into a Sweet, Innocent Girl—It Was All Worth It!

White Immortal Aunt's disciple!

Su Ruoxue's senior sister!

The moment Su Bai's words rang out, the entire hall was stunned. Everyone immediately cast surprised looks their way. They had originally thought the woman who had arrived with him was either another beauty Su Bai had picked up or one of Su Ruoxue's friends.

But they never expected her background to be so impressive!

Huh?

No, wait!

This beauty was also Su Ruoxue's senior sister. Didn't that mean Ruo Xue had taken White Immortal Aunt as her master? She was a rare divine physician in the Jiangnan Region!

If that was true, then Ruo Xue's future would be limitless!

Feeling countless gazes land upon her, Bai Yun understood Su Bai's intention and knew it was time for her to speak. She nodded elegantly and said calmly, "That's right!"

"My master is White Immortal Aunt, and Ruo Xue has already entered my master's sect!"

In an instant, everyone looked at Su Ruoxue with a hint of fervor. After all, who didn't have a few health problems? Now that one of their own had become White Immortal Aunt's disciple, wouldn't they be free from illness and pain from now on?

It made Su Ruoxue feel somewhat uncomfortable, and she instinctively moved to hide behind Su Bai.

A strange look also flashed across Elder Su's face. Even he had known nothing about this. The old friend who had informed him earlier that Su Bai had gone to the Xiao Household to break off the engagement had not mentioned it either!

No wonder this girl Ruo Xue wanted to break off the engagement. So she had found herself a backer!

"White Immortal Aunt also strongly approves of breaking off this engagement!" Su Bai quickly added at that moment. It was the trump card after the bombshell!

"Hiss!"

Everyone immediately sucked in a breath and unconsciously looked toward Elder Su, whose expression had turned grave.

This engagement was probably as good as broken!

Upon hearing Su Bai's words, Elder Su immediately furrowed his brows. He lowered his gaze slightly as his mind raced.

White Immortal Aunt stood apart from the great families. Her miraculous medical skills gave her considerable influence, and he had heard that she even had connections with the Imperial Capital. With her support, this matter was likely already settled!

"Alas!"

But when he thought of his old friend and their years of friendship, his brow furrowed even deeper. In the end, he could only let out a helpless sigh.

"Although the Xiao Household has been disloyal, our Su Household cannot be unrighteous. Even if the engagement is broken, Su Bai, you should still send them one billion."

As he spoke, a trace of loneliness crossed Elder Su's face. He shook his head and said, "After all, it was ultimately our Su Household that broke the agreement!"

One billion?

Su Bai raised an eyebrow upon hearing that, immediately resisting the idea. He had already offended Xiao Fan beyond repair. If he still gave them money, wouldn't that just be funding an enemy?

Do I look like some enormous sucker to you?

A sorrowful expression immediately appeared on his face. He waved his hands, smacking the back of his left hand against his right as he exclaimed in anguish, "Elder Su, do you know that when Xiao Fan failed to make a move, he directly left behind a threat?"

"He said that if we gave him three years, he would definitely make the Su Household pay the price!"

The moment those words came out!

The hall immediately erupted. Dissatisfaction appeared on everyone's faces. They felt Xiao Fan was simply looking down on the Su Household. How dare a descendant of the Xiao Household, which was about to fall out of the Suzhou Four Great Families, speak such wild words?

"Hmph!"

Su Bai's father, Su Yue, could not help snorting coldly when he heard that. He found Xiao Fan's vow utterly ridiculous. "He truly overestimates himself and seeks attention with empty theatrics!"

Hearing his old friend's grandson make such arrogant remarks and show no regard for the Su Household, even Elder Su felt a trace of disgust rise in his heart.

"Young people always think too highly of themselves!" His eyes suddenly sharpened as he delivered those icy words, no longer mentioning the one billion in compensation.

He had originally thought Xiao Fan was an outstanding young man and had felt somewhat guilty, but now it seemed he was merely an ignorant brat who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.

At that thought, a trace of mockery flashed across Elder Su's face. "Since Xiao Fan of the Xiao Household is so self-righteous, then our Su Household need not continue trying to curry favor with them!"

Out of consideration for his old friend, he had already shown the utmost benevolence by not ordering action against the Xiao Household. Whatever happened afterward would have nothing to do with the Su Household. Still, as he looked at Su Bai, who had handled the matter so appropriately—

A trace of approval involuntarily crossed his eyes. He nodded leisurely and praised him without reservation. "As expected of my eldest grandson. Without you, we would never have seen Xiao Fan's true face!"

"Su Bai, you handled this matter well!"

His previous mischievousness had merely been because he was still young. Once a child grew up, the talent in the Su Household bloodline would naturally reveal itself.

This praise made Su Bai feel a little embarrassed. He instinctively scratched the back of his head. Behind him, Su Ruoxue slightly raised her head and gazed at his tall back, an unusual feeling stirring in her heart. It would be wonderful if Big Brother were always like this!

At that moment, Su Yue happily walked over and slapped his precious son on the shoulder. "Since Elder Su has spoken, your allowance for this month will be doubled!"

"Hahaha!!"

Elder Su, delighted for his eldest grandson, immediately waved a hand. Leaning on his cane, he hummed a little tune as he leisurely departed.

Seeing this, the others also gradually left. But once Elder Su was gone, the words they had been holding back could not help spilling out...

"This is hilarious. Xiao Fan can't even keep his own position as general manager, yet he dreams of surpassing our Su Household!"

"Don't worry. After what happened today, it won't be long before the Xiao Household can no longer hold its place among the Suzhou Four Great Families."

"What a pity. If I'd known, I would have gone along too. I really wanted to see just how ridiculous and laughable Xiao Fan looked!"

No one took Xiao Fan's vow seriously. They all treated it as a joke, but Su Bai's brows slowly furrowed.

He swept his gaze across the crowd that did not take the matter seriously and shook his head inwardly.

He had never expected his Su Household to be such a typical cannon-fodder family—constantly underestimating the protagonist, only to be crushed to death by him amid their shock.

Perhaps that was the Protagonist Halo!

Fortunately, this young master has never underestimated anyone with a protagonist template! The next second, a cold smile crossed Su Bai's heart. His eyes gleamed sharply, and killing intent surged.

He would not give Xiao Fan, this engagement-breaking protagonist, even the slightest chance to grow. He would kill him in the cradle!

"Big Brother! I'm taking Senior Sister Bai Yun to report today's happy news to Master. If there's nothing else, we'll be leaving first!" Just as Su Bai was fully accepting the fact that he was a great villain, a light, fluttering sensation rose behind him, followed by a sweet voice.

Su Bai turned around and realized it was his younger sister, Su Ruoxue. Her usual cold expression had faded, replaced by a gentle smile directed at him. She had practically transformed from a mature beauty into a sweet girl in an instant!

Damn! It was worth it!

In an instant, Su Bai's heart began pounding uncontrollably. He was so excited that he felt everything he had done today had been worth it just for that one "Big Brother!"

After all, in the original owner's memories, Su Ruoxue had never called him so intimately before. As his heart raced faster and faster, Su Bai took a deep breath and forced himself to remain calm as he waved. "Alright! Be careful on the way!"

"And goodbye to you too, Senior Sister Bai Yun!"

Naturally, Su Bai did not forget to flash a brilliant smile and wave at Bai Yun beside Su Ruoxue. From this point on, it was time to reshape his image.

The playboy of the past would be gone forever. But there was no need to be sad, because stepping onto the stage next was Su Bai: a sincere young man with memories of two lifetimes, thirty years of being single, thirty-six tricks for hauling bricks, and professional internet keyboard-warrior skills!

"Goodbye!"

A smile also appeared on Bai Yun's usually elegant face as she waved. Today's encounter had not left her with a bad impression of Su Bai. To be honest, she was even somewhat looking forward to their next meeting.

After waving goodbye to each other, Su Bai watched Su Ruoxue and Bai Yun's figures gradually disappear into the distance. The smile on his lips slowly faded, until a fierce glint flashed through his eyes.

Because Xiao Fan, that protagonist, had appeared in his mind again. He clenched his fists tightly, unwilling to let all this beauty vanish with a mere flick of the protagonist's hand.

There was only one solution—take down the protagonist!

As the ancients said: know yourself and know your enemy, and you can win every battle.

Su Bai understood this principle well. He immediately turned toward the butler standing beside a pillar in the hall, his face as stern as ever since Su Bai had been young, and gave a quiet instruction. "Uncle Wang, I'll need your help. Have someone gather every bit of information on the Xiao Household and send it to my room later."

Uncle Wang slowly raised his head upon hearing this. A strange look crossed his usually expressionless face, but he nodded respectfully without hesitation. "Yes, Young Master!"
