Chapter 1098 “War’s Prelude (8)”
“Okay.” Toddling over to his mother’s side with Dragony in tow, Bai Xiachen makes a grab for the woman’s hand with that huge smile of his, “Mother, we will go say goodbye to grandfather and them.”
Giving her boy a rub on the head over how good he was acting, Bai Yan then turns to Di Cang to give the final say: “Let’s go then.”
The farewell with Bai Chang Feng and others were very simple. Even if their hearts are reluctant to let the family go, they also know that the family have more important things to do so they won’t stop them. However, if there’s anything special of note during their departure then it would have to be when Bai Yan encountered Chu Yi Feng as she walked out of her grandfather’s room.
“Di Cang, I want to speak with him in private, can you take Xiachen and Dragony away first?”
Despite the open frown he’s showing, the demon king didn’t object and obediently complied with a whisper: “Alright, I’ll wait for you up ahead.”
Alone now after everyone has left, Bai Yan’s sight continues to stay on Chu Yi Feng’s figure, leaving the mood awkwardly silent because neither of them spoked for the longest time. It’s as if they had returned to their first meeting years ago…..
“Yi Feng, are you well lately?” In the end it was Bai Yan who broke the strange atmosphere.
Light as the breeze, the man reveals a warm smile from his eternally cold face at the inquiry. “I’ll be fine as long as I can see you.”
I’ll be fine as long as I can see you…..
A ripple spread across Bai Yan’s face: “Yi Feng, why must you do this to yourself? I’m married already. Not only do I have Xiachen, I am also pregnant with a second….”
“Yan Yan, I understand that no matter what I say or do, you won’t come to me in the end. I don’t need you to answer my feelings, I only want to watch over you.” Curving his lips further into an almost sorrowful shape now, Chu Yi Feng’s attempt at playing strong only made Bai Yan feel even more pained.
“In this life, the one I owe the most is you.” Perhaps fate likes to toy with people. Aside from Di Cang, Bai Yan couldn’t love anyone else, regardless of what they do for herself.
“Yan’er, you never wronged me because I respect your choice….” Pausing in his voice, the man began to feel surreal like he’s not of this world, “Maybe it’s because of our past lifetime. Maybe this is what I must do to make up for it.”
Maybe this is what I must do to make up for it….
Bai Yan’s mind suddenly fell into a trance like shock as the image of man came into view. They’re practically the same person in terms of looks, the only difference was the hair. Chu Yi Feng had silky black hair while Chu Yi God had snowy white hair.
“Yi Feng, not long ago I met a man called Yi God. He looks very similar to you, no wait, its better to describe him as a carbon copy of you. I like to ask, do you know him?”
