Chapter 1848 “Gu Ya’s Doomsday (4)”
Throwing herself into Bai Yan’s breast, Di Ling Yan cuddles that little head in there for warmth: “Does Mother miss Father?”
“Yes…” Bai Yan’s focus fell into a trance at the mention of Di Cang, “Your father he… did too much for me, I can only use the rest of my life to repay him for that.”
Di Ling Yan does not understand why her parents would owe each other anything; after all, in her view, they are all family so why does a family need to owe each other anything?
“You’re still young so you don’t understand. When you meet someone who really cares about you, you will naturally get it then.” Giving her daughter’s head a rub, she smiles warmly as she speaks in a cooing voice: “If you meet a man as good as your father, you must never give him up, understand? I kept refusing your father in the past; fortunately, he was so insistent and eventually won me over.”
“Father and Mother weren’t family before?” A look of confusion sparkled in the pipsqueak’s intelligent eye.
Even though the baby had the smarts of a genius, Di Ling Yan was still young and immature to the wonders of this world. So naturally, it doesn’t occur to her families must be formed by a union and through the efforts of two individuals.
“No Ling Yan, we were merely two individuals who managed to find each other in a vast sea of people. Remember sweetie, mother will always stand behind you and support your decision. And if someone hurts you, whether physically or mentally, mother will make them pay regardless of where they are!”
Bai Yan has a lot of confidence in her daughter’s ability to cope with the dangers of this world once she’s older, but when it comes to love, that’s an emotion no woman could say they’re confident with.
“Don’t worry Mother, I will not give others the chance to hurt me.” Di Ling Yan meets her mother’s gaze with the most brilliant smile, “And, I will always stay by Mother’s side and never separate.”
“Silly girl…” Bai Yan chuckled helplessly as her vision s.h.i.+fted to the little chicklet next to her pillow head.
“Chi Chi.” Seeing the demon queen has finally noticed his existence, the golden phoenix chirps excitedly.
“Come.” Bai Yan waves for the bird to get closer.
The gesture was a kind one; however, the meaning didn’t exactly mean the same thing between human and bird. Right as Chi Chi wanted to twaddle over to rub his head against the woman’s cheek like the baby girl, Bai Yan suddenly plucked him off the bed right before the intimate act could be carried out.
“Chi Chi, you will stay by Ling Yan’s side from now on, understand?”
First turning to stare at the pipsqueak, then back at the demon queen, the golden chicklet phoenix s.h.i.+vered out of reflex at the thought of being eaten.
“Chi Chi!” Chi Chi cries and jumps in a panic, desperately shaking his tiny head in order to convey his meaning.
I don’t want to follow this girl, she said I look tasty before and it’s not safe!
“Hmm,” Bai Yan naturally got the meaning and started to stroke her chin. Gazing down at the bird’s golden fluffy fur, “Your fur looks very good.”
Shrieking and horror at the last comment, Chi Chi got all fearful and shrank into a ball, thus causing him to nearly roll off of Bai Yan’s hand altogether.
