Chapter 858 “Please Take My Uncle (4)”
“No need, I won’t intervene in other people’s feelings, not to mention this needs to solved by their own hands . But…” Bai Yan’s lip curls into a thoughtful smile, “You can go inform Shaoling . Tell him she’s here in the Holy Land . ”
“Okay,” Chu Yi Yi’s eyes lit up .
When she spent a period of time in the kingdom of Liu Huo, the image she got of the Lan family was very good because none of them abandoned Bai Yan and her son . Perhaps it’s as the old saying goes: good people will have good fortune .
“Oh right…” a young and handsome face appears in the princess’s mind just then, “Bai Yan, do you still not have word on Bai Xiao’s whereabout yet? I haven’t seen him for a long time… . ”
Bai Xiao?
Her heart shook at the name . Clenching that hand until its slightly trembling, Bai Yan shakes her head at the end despite the infinite worry she has for her own brother .
“I have sent the Flower Brothel and Demon Beast Sect out to look for him after he left without a word . Though there’s still no word from him, I believe he will one day return to my side once he has garnered enough strength . ”
That teen has always wanted to rely on his own strength in order to support her, not to rely on his sister . So, when he became aware of the close relationship Bai Yan had with the Holy Land, he promptly refused the offer to come .
“So not even you know about his whereabout… . ?” Slowly exhaling a long breath, there’s a sense of disappointment in the princess’s face .
Not missing this picture, Bai Yan’s face immediately lit up . Hurrying to grasp onto the lass’s shoulder, there’s joy in the woman’s eye: “Yi Yi, you and my brother… . ”
“Huh?” Staring blankly at that hopeful face, Chu Yi Yi didn’t take much time to realize what the over the top reaction was about . Hurrying to step backwards, “Hey now, don’t get the wrong idea… I’m only worried about him, nothing more… . ”
Smiling all the way into her bones, Bai Yan didn’t buy that explanation one bit . Patting the lass’s shoulder like a good older sister, “Although we weren’t able to become family, but this is also a good turn of event . ”
“… . ” The princess makes a baffled face . Indeed, this time Bai Yan’s misunderstanding was a serious one .
It’s then the little steambun also pops his nosy head from somewhere . Grinning on the face like his mother: “Sister Yi Yi cares about Uncle, that must mean she likes him . Perhaps it won’t be long before I can start calling her Auntie instead . ”
“Auntie, Auntie . ” Always as supportive, Dragony follows up with that word like a happy go lucky kid who just learned of a new word .
In that instant, not even Chu Yi Yi’s thick face could remain unfazed . Blushing hard: “What are you saying Xiachen? And you Dragony, what are you trying to do… I and him… we’re not like that . And even if we did… no wait, I’m only using a metaphor . Also I can’t be your auntie!”
Making a naughty face, Dragony was learning all the wrong things from the boy: “Her Highness is kinder than my own mother . Even though I only call her Queen, I have long considered her my mother so you being my auntie is fine . ”
“Auntie, my uncle isn’t too bad . Sure, his character may be on the cold end, but that’s only to strangers and not family . ” Pulling at the flustered girl’s hand, Bai Xiachen starts throwing his careless words around without a care: “Why don’t you just take him?”
