Chapter 1859 “Departure (5)
“I need to take Ling Yan back for a while, Di Cang must be worried about me.” Bai Yan flickers with light in those eyes as she speaks, “Do you know a way to send me out of the domain?”
Those not at the same level of a monarch could leave the domains. However, she had tried before and didn’t find a way, hence her visit today to ask.
“Yan Yan, I’ll send you and your mother out first, this Heavenly Domain is too dangerous…” he shakes his head and sighs.
p.r.i.c.king her brow: “You think she would leave just because I advise her to go? If Mother finds out you’re staying then she will stay with you. But… Father, I’m going back to seek help. If my husband can send Mother over here then that proves he has a wave of leaving without breaking the seal.”
That finally moved the man’s determination. He’s highly reluctant to admit that Di Cang had abducted his precious daughter, but now he’s going to have to admit this son-in-law of his had the ability to be a good husband if this plan works out.
“Okay.” He nods, agreeing with this method.
Suddenly, the man recalled the picture of the adorable grandchild that’s also going to leave him: “Daughter, after you take Ling Yan away, be sure to pay attention to those who come close to her. Don’t let those stinking boys take my granddaughter away. I think my granddaughter is fine all on her own and doesn’t need those underserving men.”
After all, there was only one man like Di Cang. How could those other insects be worthy of her precious granddaughter?
Bai Yan nearly lost it and burst out laughing: “Father, if my memory serves me right, what you told Ling Yan before is quite different. From what I heard, you urged her to not listen to Di Cang and Xiachen, that she must pursue her own happiness and not miss it.”
Freezing into a statue at being called out, Heavenly makes an awkward cough to clear his throat: “That is only because I didn’t know she is my own granddaughter. If I had known the truth, I would be on Di Cang and Xiachen’s side and not let those filthy brats steal my precious granddaughter’s innocence.”
“But don’t you want to see a great-grandchild sometime into the future?”
“That…” Heavenly had to think it over before continuing, “Isn’t there already Xiachen? How can a girl of our family be abducted by an outsider? Just have Xiachen bring a girl home, that will get me a good great-grandchild. I’m sure that boy won’t let me down.”
In other words, it’s okay for the men of their family to abduct girls from different families over and not vice-versa.
Bai Yan was at a loss for wording after that so she didn’t rebute that logic.
“Yan Yan, you must look after Ling Yan. If a brat dares to come after her, you are to break his leg for me!” When saying this, the man looked very serious with no hint of joking around.
Like always, this poor demon queen started to worry for her own daughter again and her future husband to be. It’s going to be a complicated process with men like these in her family.
“You don’t have to worry about it, Di Cang and Xiachen already got that area covered.” She shrugs without much care, “If anyone tries to pursue Ling Yan then you can believe those two are on top of the matter. Besides, if someone outstanding does want my daughter’s hand, I’m sure Ling Yan is capable of choosing her own partner. I have full confidence in my daughter.”
Softening up in his voice, Heavenly felt rea.s.sured after that: “In that case I’m relieved. When you are ready, let me know and I will escort you out of the domain myself.”
“What better time is there than now?” Bai Yan doesn’t delay and went ahead with the plan.
She already knows something was wrong with her daughter’s body, the sooner she got back the better.
