Chapter 501 – No chance of explanation
Her round eyes stared at the Seventh Day as she cautiously asked, “Princess, are you hungry?”
Xiao Chu Qi pursed her lips. She was indeed hungry, but her mother said that things given by others couldn’t be eaten. What should she do?
With a conflicted expression on his face as he looked at the maidservants in front of him, Little Junior Seven pouted and said unhappily.
“I’m not hungry.”
Her petite body crawled onto the bed, lying motionlessly there. She thought that as long as she lay there, she wouldn’t be hungry, but her stomach was getting more and more uncomfortable. In the end, Xiao Chu Qi couldn’t help but look back at Mao’er and say,
“I’m hungry, I want to eat.”
and fully display his personality as a princess of the Ming You Kingdom.
In the following month, after the first time Xiao Jiu tried to eat something without getting poisoned, she displayed her gluttonous abilities to the fullest.
At the beginning, Xiao Junior Seven was still very scared of him, but later on, Xiao Junior Seven felt that he was just a cold-faced uncle, and wasn’t as scary as she had imagined. He was just like her father, the Emperor.
Every time Xiao Ce came, Little Junior Seven would make a bunch of weird requests. For example, he would ask someone to find a carpenter to make her a building block! For example, she had been asked to make a swing, a rattan chair, and a slide. As long as it was something that was found in the valley, everything that Helian Yuchen had done was made by Xiao Ce.
Although Xiao Ce wasn’t satisfied with what Xiao Chu Qi described it to be, it seemed to have taken on some shape. Only after doing everything did Xiao Ce realize that he had been dragged away by a little girl!
Therefore, under Xiao Ce’s request, Xiao Ce could not refuse. He chose to visit the Purple Dawn Hall when he had time because he felt that he was asking for trouble.
However, thinking about the Helian Yi from the You Prefecture, Xiao Ce suddenly became anxious.
On this day, it was drizzling and the sky had turned darker. Xiao Ce was sitting on a wheelchair with his long legs covered by a brocade blanket.
He turned the wheel and went to the window. Looking at the misty sky, he said to himself,
“It’s been over a month, Helian Yi, are you really not worried about your daughter? Or could it be that all Emperors are this heartless? ”
Why did Xiao Ce keep having the feeling that Helian Yi was deliberately stalling for time?
Indeed, it was just as Xiao Ce had thought. Helian Yi had discovered something that Shadow One had left behind at the entrance of the valley on the third day of Little Junior Seven’s abduction!
It was something that Xiao Ce had ordered his men to take out from Xiao Yihan’s residence. Although it was very small, at night it shone like a pearl. If it was in the daytime, when the grass fused with it, even a more meticulous person might not be able to discover the little thing that was like a pearl and had the word “chilliness” engraved on it.
When he discovered the pearl, Helian Yi did not pay too much attention to it. It was only because Mo Youyou curiously went over to take a look and saw an extremely small word on it that he attracted Helian Yi’s attention.
Neither of them had ever thought that a “cold” character would be engraved on a bean-sized bead.
Helian Yi’s first reaction was that the pearl must be related to the kidnapping at the seventh day!
Therefore, to Helian Yi, as long as he clearly investigated the meaning behind that word, he might be able to find out the whereabouts of the seventh day.
And Helian Yi’s speed was indeed shockingly fast as well. In merely two days of time, Helian Yi had already found the origin of the bead, and very quickly, he found the location of the seventh day.
However, he didn’t expect that the conflict between the imperial families of the Yuan Emperor had actually pulled him in as well! In other words, the people from that place had already discovered his existence.
If this was the case, then it made sense for them to be staring at the seventh day.
However, those people really shouldn’t have set their sights on him! Did he really think that Helian Yi was easy to bully?
Seeing that Day 7 seemed to be even more comfortable than when he was in the quiet valley, and was provided with both good food and fun, Helian Yi chose to leave the Yuan Emperor Kingdom without hesitation.
Although Mo Youyou grumbled for a few days after returning to the Ming You Kingdom to tell him about the seventh day, in the end, she still accepted Helian Yi’s choice after his explanation. However, because she would often think about the seventh day, she blamed Helian Yi for not even saying goodbye to his daughter before quietly leaving.
She had even been blaming herself for shouting “Ignore the seventh day, save Tianguang [1]” in front of Qianyu.
When Mo Youyou found out that the of the Yuan Emperor Country, Xiao Ce, didn’t really want to hurt the Seventh Year, she felt a lot more at ease.
These days he had been thinking about the seventh day. Mo Youyou’s entire being was in a floating state. Even when Helian Yi talked to her, he would always see her distracted.
On this day, Helian Yi walked to Mo Youyou’s side and held her hand as he said this.
“Thinking about the seventh day?”
Mo Youyou curled her lips, “My daughter. Of course I miss her. Every time when I think of the decision I made back then, the depressed look on the seventh day, my heart hurts. She must have thought I didn’t love her. I didn’t even have a chance to explain it to her. ”
Hearing Mo Youyou’s words, Helian Yi pulled her into his embrace, “Don’t think too much about it, you will see Xiao Qi soon. These days, Xiao Qi was living a good life there, which could help her train her ability to survive. Although she was still a bit young, she was, after all, part of the imperial family, so her future life would be even more dangerous than it was now. Besides, don’t you know our daughter? She is more spiritual than anyone else! ”
Just from how comfortable he was in Crown Prince Palace on the seventh day, Helian Yi could already see that his daughter would definitely not be simple like his woman in the future.
After Mo Youyou heard this, she let out a light sigh, “En, I hope that’s the case.”
It was as if she had seen the seventh day, the seventh day of life, until the fourth day of her birthday. She had never taken even half a step away from him, yet she was suddenly taken away by a stranger.
After comforting Mo Youyou, Helian Yi immediately changed into a set of profound robe and left the Imperial Palace, hurrying towards the quiet valley.
At this time, Helian Yuchen was teaching Xiao Tian Yao martial arts, and ever since Xiao Tian Yao had woken up, he had not talked much. If it was something that could make Little Heaven take the initiative to speak out against it. It would remain the same every day, so that meant “Grandfather, when will you be back on the seventh day? Is she all right? ”
For the past few days, Little Tian Yao had been dreaming about a group of bad guys capturing the seventh day. In order to save him, his aunt had allowed the bad guys to carry away the seventh day. Little Tian Yao could even feel the sadness of the seventh day. Thus, every day when he woke up, he wanted to know whether the seventh day had come back or not.
Helian Yuchen would always coax Little Tian Yao, “Seventh day, you’ve gotten yourself a cold, you’ll be coming to see us soon.”
However, Helian Yuchen had forgotten that Xiao Tian Yao was different from other ordinary people’s children. He was smart, cautious, independent and careful. How could his words deceive Little Heaven Yao?
