Birth of a Top Superstar 2

On the way back to the city, Lily Bai received a call from Max Mo.

"How did it go?" Lily asked.

"I found him. I gave him a drug that makes him tell the truth. Do you want to hear it?"

"Mm-hmm."

"I'll send you the recording."

"Okay," Lily replied.

Max Mo quickly sent her the audio recording.

But she didn't listen to it right away in the car.

Instead, she waited until she got home, found a quiet spot, and listened carefully together with Evan Lan.

Andrew Ames: "She told me to find Master Kudu and just deliver the letter to him. So that day I went to see Master Kudu, then went home."

Max Mo: "Who told you to go find Master Kudu?"

Andrew Ames: "My sister, Mabel An."

Max Mo: "Did you read the contents of the letter?"

Andrew Ames: "I did. I secretly peeked."

Max Mo: "What did it say?"

Andrew Ames: "The contents were really strange. Even now I don’t know what really happened back then."

Max Mo: "Repeat the letter’s contents."

Andrew Ames: "It said, please ask Master Kudu for help. When the President asks about the Young Princess’s illness, have Master Nebula tell the President to cut down a tree in the courtyard on Dragon Mountain Hills."

"The letter also said, as long as Master Kudu helps, he will surely be guided to see the True Lord."

Max Mo: "What is the True Lord?"

Andrew Ames: "I don’t know. His Majesty the Supreme Emperor flew into a rage, Master Kudu died suddenly, and Master Nebula disappeared. I felt this was no small matter, so I was afraid to get involved and didn’t dare ask her more."

Max Mo: "Can you think of anything else related to this?"

Andrew Ames: "My sister used to be a career woman, but after marrying the Third Prince Nathan Xiao, she suddenly became obsessed with seeking immortals and the Way. It was almost like she was possessed. She quit her job, and the two of them spent all their time digging graves and exploring tombs. I always felt there might be a connection."

Max Mo: "Seeking immortals and the Way? What immortals did they seek, what Way did they ask about?"

Andrew Ames: "They probably visited all the famous monasteries and hidden temples across the country! I can’t say exactly where."

Max Mo: "Anything else?"

Andrew Ames: "Nothing else. I’ve been in Italy all these years. Honestly, I haven’t had much contact with them. I don’t know anything else, and I don’t want to know."

That’s where the recording ends.

Max Mo sent a voice message saying there’s nothing more he can get out of Andrew on this topic.

Lily Bai frowned, thought for a moment, then said to Evan Lan, "Do you think it’s finally time? Can we make a move on your Third Aunt?"

Her left hand got pricked.

Evan Lan disagreed.

"She’s the one who killed your mother," Lily Bai said. "She must be deeply involved with the missing Legacy Stone. You still won’t let me touch her?"

[No]

"Fine..." Lily Bai frowned. "I’ve already asked Lisa to search every property under their names. Maybe we’ll find the Legacy Stone. We’ll talk about it then."

[Okay]

"Xixi... there’s something I didn’t dare tell you yesterday," Lily Bai continued. "At Xena Xiao and Shaun Fane’s engagement party... I couldn’t refuse in front of everyone, so I admitted I was the Crown Princess."

Evan Lan didn’t react.

"Are you mad at me?"

No response.

"Are you angry with me?"

Still no response.

"Here we go again," Lily Bai sighed. "Well, it’s done. You don’t agree, but you can’t do anything about it now. What can you do, stuck as a potted plant?"

"Hey! Don’t prick my butt! That hurts~~"
