Chapter 1343 “Bai Yan’s Return (4)”
Bai Yan could finally feel at ease after witnessing the scene, “Xiachen, it’s all right now.”
But instead of answering like expected, the steambun actually turned it around and started to comfort the woman: “Mother don’t be scared. Those people are so stupid and bad, what is there to be afraid of?”
Yes, in this little guy’s view, those Keepers who stand at the peak of a whole realm are all stupid and low IQ, which wasn’t wrong at all in this case. Think about it, if it wasn’t for Keeper Yellow’s token calling for help, would the three believe Bai Yan’s nonsense so easily? The answer would of course not! That means the whole reason Keeper Hyun died was because of his own people’s doing, they indirectly killed their own.
“Di Cang, I have something to tell you.” Releasing her son, Bai Yan got serious in the face: “Those people from the Celestial Palace are after our daughter.”Di Cang’s expression sank as well: “I know, but don’t worry, there’s nothing they can do while I am around. No danger will befall Ling Yan.”
Sure, he may not necessarily care about the kids as much as his wife, but they are Bai Yan’s lifeblood, making them his as well.
“I believe you.” Bai Yan releases her tense face and smiled again, which made the demon king smile as well as a consequence.
“First Elder, I also have something I want to ask you.” Bai Yan then turns to the elder who wasn’t that far away at this point. “In my previous life, am I somehow related to the Celestial Realm?”
The old elder wanted to say something but didn’t due to how sudden the question was. Does the queen remember everything?
“Don’t think too much on it, I’m only asking. Regarding everything, I’m still only getting small fragments of it in my dream.” She quickly explains, afraid the other side would mistake her sentence for something else.
Twitching in the mouth: “What does Your Highness want to ask?”“This old man… Does he have anything to do with me?” Bai Yan points to the old coot who had already ran over and clapping his hand. However, her question did bring a pathetic look into those eyes like he’s hurt.
“Good Granddaughter, I know I’m wrong, are you really not going to want me anymore?”
Unable to bear this, Bai Xiachen tugs at his mother’s sleeve: “Mother, Great Grandfather is so pitiful, can we take him in?” After saying that, the boy made sure to get all watery in those eyes while gazing upwards.
“Hold on Xiachen, I want to hear from First Elder before making a decision.” Ruffling her son’s hair, she doesn’t want to rush the matter, nor does she want to disappoint her son.
Now First Elder definitely fell into a pinch.
What should he say? Tell Bai Yan she’s the adopted granddaughter of this old man that has clearly lost his sanity? And that every time the old man would kick the king out with a broom whenever he saw him?
“I… I guess you could say that….” After a long while of indecision, he mutters this vague response out.
I better keep the part about being kicked out with a broom to myself, otherwise who knows what will happen to me!
“Could say?” Bai Yan frowns with more questions then answers.
“This…” Getting all sweaty under the pressure, First Elder eventually caved in after noticing the angry stare from the old coot: “You are his adopted granddaughter!”
