The already overly nervous Tao, upon hearing the sharp scream, couldn't take heed of anything else and dashed over immediately.
Baili Xia furrowed her eyebrows even tighter, staring at the hall's entrance with a flicker of hesitation.
The scream wasn't quite heart-wrenching; it was more out of shock. But... Madame Bei Tang Jixin?
Bei Tianyou's mother, Tao's mistress.
Baili Xia hesitated for just a moment before she couldn't restrain herself and also strode over.
Inside the hall, Nangong Yun was holding a snowy white creature, the corners of her lips curved with a faint smile as she gently stroked the white fluff.
Her soft movements, paired with delicate whispers, exuded an indescribable elegance and sophistication.
She was soothing the white little creature in her arms, seemingly because the little creature had been startled.
When Tao entered the room, this was the scene that greeted her.
