Chapter 1518 “The Young Lord’s Child (3)”
“Yi Yi, listen to me!” Bai Yan grasps onto her foster sister’s shoulder so she would listen, “The place I need to go is in another world, it’s where I’ve been all this time! And that place, it’s not somewhere one can just travel to at a whim.”
It’s not that she wants to leave the girl behind, it’s that… she doesn’t know if she’s able to take her along. What point would there be in giving false hope? That would only cause more damage and hurt later on.
Only then does Bai Yi Yi’s happy gaze let up, her lips pursing into a thin line: “Then Sister Bai Yan, do you have other relatives over on that side?”
Bai Yan slowly nods to answer, “Yes, a lot over there.”“That’s… that’s a relief then. Are they good to you?” Though still sad in the face, Bai Yi Yi continues to ask.
“They all love me,” a nod comes again.
“That’s… that’s good, I’m relieved then.” As if trying to keep herself from crying, Bai Yi Yi puts on the most difficult smile of her life, “I was always worried that you would be alone without me. Back when we were young, you didn’t know how to care for yourself at all. There were attendants to help back when we were living with Shifu, but afterwards it was I who did everything afterwards. Like fixing the bed, cooking, cleaning and stuff. Now that I know someone else can look after you, I’m relieved.”
Bai Yan immediately got all sweaty in the forehead after having all her flaws pointed out. True, her foster sister was smaller than herself, but she’s heck a lot more mature in more than one way.
“Yi Yi, I of course want to take you with me if possible.” Hurrying to change the subject, the conversation was leading into a hole that she didn’t want to head down into. “You know, I have a friend over on that side that’s the polar opposite of your personality. You know how to do everything, she on the other hand doesn’t know how to do anything, constantly making trouble in her wake. A real troublemaker.”
When mentioning Chu Yi Yi again of the Holy Land, the lady’s lip would inexplicably form a smile like some happy memories would return.
I wonder if that lass is doing well, I haven’t seen her for a long while now….“But her name is the same as yours though. She’s Chu Yi Yi and you’re Bai Yi Yi, only a difference in your surname. If I can’t take you with me to the other side then I will make sure you have a good life on Earth. I won’t let the same mistake happen again after I leave.”
This opportunity to return was a good chance to set things right. Not only does Bai Yan intend to find the missing item she needs, she’s also going to rid Yi Yi of all her enemies.
Bai Yi Yi could see her older sister’s happy expression. As a result of this, a sense of sorrow hit her poor heart in a way that it throbbed.
If only I could go there together with her….
“Sister Bai Yan,” it’s then does the lass remember something important, “is it wise to have a fall out with… with Wen Shan?”
“What’s wrong with that?” Bai Yan sneered in contempt at the mentioned name, “You’re my people, he’s not.”
You’re my people, he’s not?
This sentence instantly brought a ray of sunshine to the depressed girl’s mood. Looking up with hope in those eyes, she murmurs the only thing that she could, “Mmm.”
Sister Bai Yan said I am her people… It feels so nice to be recognize….
Feeling much better now, Bai Yi Yi’s next thought wasn’t about the future anymore, but about something more pressing at the moment. “Sister Bai Yan, where are we going to stay now?”
“Stay in a hotel of course.”
“Uh, hotel? But those are expensive…” Counting her finger, the young lass immediately started to go over her earnings from handing out those flyers. As for the wealth retrieved today, that’s not in her consideration.
It’s not like Bai Yi Yi was homeless or anything, she also has a place to stay. However, there’s no way she would let her older sister stay in that basement unit she rented, that’s not even within the equation.
“It’s all right, don’t worry about.” Reaching over to grab the other girl’s hand, Bai Yan makes a reassuring smile so her foster sister wouldn’t fret, “I got a lot of money on me so don’t mind the expenses.”
