Chapter 623 “Leave (4)”

“Okay.” Pinching her lips in discouragement, Di Xiao Wan nevertheless did as told and walked towards the door. But just before her departure, the princess didn’t forget to cast one final glance backwards: “Sister-in-law, if someone tries to harm you in any way then you must tell me, I will have Brother peel their skin for you.”

“I’m fine so don’t worry,” Bai Yan manages to force an unconvincing smile.

Xiao Wan is very naive, she shouldn’t… suspect anything.

After the demon princess departed and left Bai Yan to her own bidding, the depressed woman’s first act was to pull Little Rice into her embrace to comb through that soft fur as if the act alone would be able to comfort that hurt heart.

Against the miserable appearance of his mistress and that droplet of tear quickly building up in the corner of those eyes, Little Rice naturally grew worried.

“Little Rice, I’ve been having many dreams lately. There were you, and there were Di Cang…. Everything was so real, like it really happened at one point. It was because of those scenes that I wanted to give him a chance, to try accepting him.” Letting her eyes build up a layer of water, she bites her lip with a pang of frustration plastered on the surface: “Me and him…. How am I supposed to believe we are fated to be together in two different lives? At first I thought someone had impersonated him by putting on a disguise back there, but you’ve heard what Xiao Wan said….”

The little tiger didn’t cut in, only licking her hand in an attempt to comfort his mistress with the act.

“Ha, how stupid of me, I actually hoped that everything was a lie… Xiao Wan may be silly at times but she is still the princess, her words are believable. After all, she had lived for hundreds of years already. If there is someone in the Demon Realm that could change their aura and scent completely, there’s no way she wouldn’t know.”

Bai Yan could still believe in Di Xiao Wan’s word because the girl never snubbed her at all, not in the past and most certainly not now. However, the story of Di Cang only taking her for the sake of the Demon Realm…. Bai Yan won’t deny it, its bothering her a lot right now in light of being uncertain still.

“Then what are you planning to do Mistress?” Lowering his head, Little Rice snuggles himself against her body to further his cuteness. “No matter what you do, I will always support you. If you can’t give up on Di Cang, then I’m willing to stay with you regardless Mistress.”

“I want to give him a chance. If he can return to me within half a month, and… explain himself, then I will believe in him.”

Yes, that’s right, despite everything she’s heard or seen thus far, she’s willing to give the man another chance… Bai Yan simply refuses to believe all the days they spent together are all fake!

“Master, I will stay and wait with you then.” Wiggling his tiger head against that hand: “I saw it with my own eyes of how much he cares for you in the human world, that’s why I won’t believe it either that he only approached you for the sake of Little Master…”

Bai Yan was at a loss on how to respond to that. Slowly closing her eyes, she lets the many events of the past play out within her mind like someone watching it through a lens.

Di Cang, I will believe you one last time. As long as you come and give me an explanation within half a month then I will believe in you….

……

Under the shrouding rays of the moonlight, the mountains in the Demon Realm are as usual quiet and serene, with the exception of one location.

Pacing around anxiously, Qing Xue had a hopeful look in her eyes when a rustling sound from behind caught her attention.

“How is it?” she asked nervously.

The man had restored his previous appearance already – a bland face and black hair. Quiet at first against the snake demoness’s stare, he eventually spoke after giving a faint sigh: “Because the king wasn’t in the palace and the state teacher being in retreat, I was able to stick one my puppets to figure out the queen’s whereabout.”

“Don’t call her the queen, she doesn’t deserve it!” Qing Xue’s face sank, clearly dissatisfied with the fact that Bai Yan holds such title.

Despite the man wanting to say something again at the demand, he relented and dropped the subject. “Qing Xue, I’ve done the favor you asked of me, and now I must leave before the state teacher comes out. That person will surely become aware of my actions now that I’ve exposed myself.”
