Seeing Hu Xiaobei walking towards them with an indifferent expression, these people were extremely nervous.

They knew that whether they could continue to live hinged entirely on this young man.

If he were unwilling to lend a hand, they really could only silently await death...

Sensing their tension, Hu Xiaobei narrowed his eyes.

"Now you know fear, huh?"

After murmuring this, Hu Xiaobei squatted in front of Bai Mengmeng under everyone's gaze!

Since no one understood what Hu Xiaobei intended, everyone curiously looked over...

Bai Mengmeng was a bit curious too...

Feeling Bai Mengmeng's curiosity, Hu Xiaobei chuckled and said, "Mengmeng, I want to ask you, do you think these people are worth saving? If you think they are, I will help them. If not, then let them fend for themselves!"

Hu Xiaobei asked for Bai Mengmeng's opinion at that moment because he knew she had suffered a lot before...

Thus, now, she had the right to voice her opinion...

Hearing Hu Xiaobei's question, everyone present turned their gazes towards Bai Mengmeng in unison...

Especially those poisoned Bai Family elders!

They knew that their fates were now in Bai Mengmeng's hands...

If she asked Hu Xiaobei to save them now, he would certainly agree.

But if she decided against it, Hu Xiaobei surely wouldn't treat them.

Understanding this, they looked somewhat distressed...

They knew that they had not treated Bai Mengmeng well before!

Therefore, Bai Mengmeng was unlikely to ask Hu Xiaobei to help, because she probably wished they would die sooner...

...

"The Bai Family elders are in for it now!"

"That's right! They were really ruthless to Bai Mengmeng before, and now she probably can't wait for them to just die!"

"I think so too!"

The young people from the Shao Family began to gloat.

They gloated at that moment because they knew that the Bai Family elders had betrayed Bai Mengmeng for their own benefit before...

They knew that if they were Bai Mengmeng, they would surely have hated them, so now with the chance, they would definitely seek harsh revenge!

As these young people were gloating, they heard Bai Mengmeng speak up quickly!

"Big Brother Xiaobei, of course, we must save them! They are all my family, and they treated me very well before! Big Brother Xiaobei, if there's a way, you must save them."

"This..."

Stunned!

When Bai Mengmeng's words clearly reached everyone's ears, the young people from the Shao Family were utterly dumbfounded!

So were those poisoned elders of the Bai Family...

After exchanging dumbfounded looks, they felt a burning pain on their faces.

"I really deserved to die!"

As they spoke, they harshly slapped themselves...

Before, they thought Bai Mengmeng would definitely kick them while they were down, but now they realized she hadn't done so!

They had truly judged her by their own low standards...

"We deserve to die, we really do!"

Frantic, they slapped their own faces again, hard...

Bai Mengmeng felt a bit of heartache seeing this and quickly approached them.

Soon, Bai Mengmeng whispered softly, "Grandfather... don't hit your faces like that, it's painful!"

Hearing Bai Mengmeng speak so urgently, they felt even more shame!

At that moment, they silently pledged in their hearts that they would treat Bai Mengmeng better in the future.

Because she truly deserved any sacrifice they could make...

Seeing that they stopped hitting themselves, Bai Mengmeng smiled...

Bai Mengmeng knew that they hadn't treated her well before!

But Bai Mengmeng hadn't planned to seek harsh revenge, because she knew that there were reasons for their actions...

Before, her own body indeed had some issues.

Blood is thicker than water!

Bai Mengmeng knew that in the end, they were all family...

Now, watching them really die wouldn't do any good, so it was better to give them another chance...

"My daughter really has matured a lot!" Bai Xuening mused as she watched Bai Mengmeng.

Previously, she felt her daughter was not very mature, but now she knew she was wrong...

Her daughter had matured much more than she had imagined...

...

"Mengmeng is truly commendable!" Hu Xiaobei quietly exclaimed in admiration, then narrowed his eyes at them, "Do you really understand your mistakes now?"

Hearing Hu Xiaobei's deep inquiry, they nodded quickly...

"Yes, we know now!"

"Right, we were wrong!"

They looked at Hu Xiaobei and nodded vigorously.

"If you recognize your mistakes, then reflect well from now on! I can help you neutralize the poison, but remember, this is because of Bai Mengmeng!" said Hu Xiaobei, pausing slightly!

Hu Xiaobei continued, "If in the future, you are unkind to Bai Xuening or Bai Mengmeng, I will certainly not let you off, understood?"

"Yes! We understand!"

Hearing Hu Xiaobei's threat, they exchanged glances and nodded vigorously again.

Hu Xiaobei looked deeply at them and said indifferently, "I hope you truly can do as you say, now, line up one by one, I'll start detoxifying you!"

"Okay!"

They responded excitedly and started lining up very seriously...

Hu Xiaobei's eyes narrowed slightly as he began to detoxify them...

Before, Hu Xiaobei already was aware of the poison they were afflicted with, so now it was very easy for him to handle...

The Bai Family's young people, seeing Hu Xiaobei begin to assist them, completely breathed a sigh of relief!

Quickly, they exchanged looks...

After that, they approached the Shao Family's young people with a sinister expression.

"This..."

The young people from the Shao Family's faces turned pale...

They wanted to resist, but they were utterly incapable, and thus, they were quickly tied up like rice dumplings!

While Hu Xiaobei was detoxifying them, about ten kilometers from the Bai Family, in a secluded mountain area, stood an even more exquisite Siheyuan.

This place was the stronghold of the Shao Family.

Both the Shao and Bai Families were Hidden Families, and they used to get along very well before!

But later, because of the Shao Family's great ambitions, they gradually drifted apart...

This estrangement caused the relationship between the two families to deteriorate over time.

Even though on the surface, the two families did not engage in open conflict, their behind-the-scenes maneuvers were quite numerous.

At this moment, in a gazebo of this Siheyuan, a man dressed in a Zhongshan suit sat quietly by the pond, listening to the sound of the flowing water.

He was Shao He, the current Family Head of the Shao Family!

"It's really liberating being alone!"

He said, admiringly, when suddenly a sound came through!

Glancing over, he noticed that the water he boiled had started bubbling...

With a faint smile, he gently lifted the teacup.

Soon, he poured himself a cup of tea with gusto.

Shao He has loved brewing tea since he was young, and thus he has a very thorough understanding of the tea ceremony.

At this moment, as the tea leaves opened in the water, a hint of light and elegant fragrance quickly spread.

Inhaling this fragrance, his complexion improved significantly.

This is what life is about.

Feeling quite excited by this realization, Shao He lifted the exquisitely crafted Purple Sand Pot.

Just as he was about to savor the tea, he suddenly heard a rapid footstep.

His mood for refinement disrupted, he slightly furrowed his brow.

Quickly, Shao He put down the fine Purple Sand Pot with an expressionless face...
