Adorable treasured fox: Divine doctor mother overturning the heavens! Chapter 690

Chapter 690 "Impersonate (2)"

It’s just that….

When Bai Yan saw the woman’s figure, her initial reaction was a stupefied expression of someone seeing a ghost.

Sure, she couldn’t see the woman’s face from her angle, but the fact that the figure looked so similar to her own was uncanny. Take the clothes for example, its exactly as the one she wore that day on the boat!

Just when Bai Yan was rather puzzled and didn't know what to make of this, another voice had cut in and pulled her attention away.

“Move aside please, everyone move aside please! Miss Mu Leng is coming through!"

Mu Leng?

The name immediately caused her face to go heavy.

To tell the truth, even if the girl did somewhat offend herself on the boat that day, Bai Yan didn't really take it to heart. After all, its just some random person whom she met on a single outing. But Mu Leng's the student of Elder Muzhen, that makes her an enemy!

“Yes, this woman is the person who saved Huan Yin that day. I remember her." Mu Leng mildly says this after coming up to the river bank.

Pheww!

The people were all heaving a puff of relief after hearing this because the rescue efforts could finally come to an end. Though it did strike them as odd that a woman could survive for several days on end inside the water, it doesn't change the fact that the person has been found.

Bai Yan on the other hand didn't feel so relaxed like the rest of them though. Her instincts are directing her to a certain theory….

If all of this was only to save the woman that just fell into the water then it could still be coincidence, but Mu Leng's involvement? That's just too ridiculous! This was clearly a ploy for something else.

Squinting her eyes, a frosty gleam flashes within Bai Yan's iris.

“UUphooph!” The rescued woman coughs twice as she threw up the water in her lungs. Showing confusion as she opened her eyes: "This is… where am I? Am I still alive?"

“You needn’t be afraid. You are safe now." Mu Leng's voice sounded incredibly soft and warm, "Now first tell us what happened under the river."

The woman’s body shook like she's still frightened by the experience before going over the previously discussed story. “I was dragged away by those two dragons and locked inside a palace. They didn't feed me for days and I was starving throughout the imprisonment. In the end I had to use a lot of energy before eventually finding an opening to escape from the palace….. I didn't expect the location to be under the river so I nearly drowned as soon as I got out."

Understanding this was enough in their fake story, Mu Leng hurries to signal her men to take the person away: "This lady is obviously very shook still from the experience. Take her back to the Mu Manor and have some of my maids cater to her needs." Having said that, the high-standing lady then straightens up to face the focused crowd: "And I, need to go report this to the chief."

“Yes, Miss Mu Leng." The guard respectfully complied and retreated away.

From beginning to end, Bai Yan was watching this from behind the crowd and became rather amused by the blatant lie.

When trouble befalls you from Heaven then there is still hope of avoidance; but when you ask for it then there is no hope of escape. Since Mu Leng is courting her own death then why should I stop her?!

……

Since entering the Mu Manor after being led here, Ho Cui Cui hadn't stopped exploring for even a minute. She's too excited inside knowing this might all be within her grasp soon, especially that back mountain which stretches for miles on end.

“Miss Ho,” a maid hurriedly comes to report, "Miss Huan Yin is coming."

This immediately warranted a hopeful look from the excited woman, "Hurry and let her in."

“Yes, Miss Ho."

In no time at all, the maid had returned from the front with another person in toe.
