Chapter 1534 “Saving a Loli (3)”
The Ling family’s estate was located in the military district reserved for members of the army. Due to Ling Lang bringing back a woman with him, the famously flirtatious playboy of the street, the quiet and peaceful district has now become a rowdy gossip ground that’s constantly peeking out to meet this new lady.
“Smile!”
Before coming back, Ling Lang had already called his mother Bai Ran and explained the car accident, hence their reception by the beautiful madam at the door.
“Smile, you scared mama here to death!” The madam quickly runs over to throw herself at the little loli, “Thank goodness you are alright, otherwise I won’t know what to do.”
Despite being still antsy from all this, Ling Smile nevertheless kept up a smile for her own mother, “Mama, it was this big sister who saved me.”
Only then did Bai Yan notice Bai Yan’s presence, and sure enough, the madam was wowed by that incredible face.
She thought she had seen the most beautiful woman in this world thanks in part due to her older sister Bai Yu, but this lady brought home by his son was at a different level altogether!
“Girl,” warmly reaching over to grasp Bai Yan’s hand, “I really want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, our Ling family owes you a great deal for saving Smile’s life.”
Looking down at how warm she’s being received, Bai Yan’s lip couldn’t help but smile at that, making her feel like at home again. “Auntie, it’s been a long time, to think your appearance hasn’t changed at all.”
Bai Ran visibly looks taken aback. There’s shock, but more were confusion in those eyes: “You are…”
“Auntie, I’m Bai Yan.”
Bai Yan was no stranger to Bai Ran here. They’ve met already during their younger years. Though it’s not a lot, the relationship between this aunt and niece remains good even before everything that eventually occurred, thus making their reunion all the more special.
Trembling in her lips at the recognition, the madam appeared almost lost for words: “Yo-You… you are Yan’er? You are really Yan Yan?!”
“Auntie, did you forget me already? When my mother brought me here the first time, Cousin here was still wearing diapers. I could still remember Uncle beating him for wetting himself that day.”
Compared with the average little girls of her age back then, Bai Yan had exceptional memory due to her innate talent. It’s also one of the reasons she excelled in alchemy and could produce those pills at such a young age.
Tearing up in the eyes following that confirmation, Bai Ran’s grasp around her niece’s hand tightened up like she would lose this child if she let’s go: “Yan Yan, where have you been all these years? You dad and his new wife have already moved here in the capital, but when I went to find him you were nowhere to be found. Is it because they won’t let you stay with them?”
Regarding Wen Shan, her former brother-in-law, Bai Ran definitely held a strong level of grudge. One being how selfish the man was at heart, the second being the fact that he abandoned his wife at the critical moment and allowed the Bai Clan to perish under the other two family’s assault.
Compared with the excitement of the madam here, Ling Lang didn’t fare so well and wanted to faint.
Bai Yan?
Why does the name sound so familiar all of a sudden… Bai Yu’s daughter!
In an instant, his whole face collapsed into a despairing look of irony and self-mockery. He thought he had a chance! He thought her husband was gone! But this turnout? They’re related by blood?! That wonderful picture of walking down the aisle just went out the window….
