Chapter 241 “Too Familiar to Make a Move (1)”
“If I remember correctly, that Nangong Lin was born on the same day as little Xiachen right? It can’t be, did that boy take credit for little Xiachen’s achievement?” Chu Yi Yi was fast to catch onto the truth. For this, there’s bound to be a good show awaiting everyone in the near future.
“Sister-in-law, I won’t forgive those bastards. How dare they misuse the name of the Demon Beast?”
In the past when her elder brother came into this world, the scenario was exactly the same, hence the reason why Di Xiao Wan would be so certain it’s not Nangong Lin. Then again, it makes perfect sense when the boy was but an ordinary human.
The more she thought about it, the grumpier she became. If Nangong Yi and his family were to be here right now, it’s not out of the question that Di Xiao Wan would strangle each and every one of them on the spot.
“Di Xiao Wan, there’s something I like to ask you though,” pricking her brow, Chu Yi Yi grew suspicious. “Why would Xiachen’s birth rile up the animals of this world, and why would you know that?”
“Of course I would know. It’s because Xiachen is….” As much as the girl wanted to tell the truth, a very firm hand had cupped her by the mouth, refusing to let her speak.
“Things that shouldn’t be spoken is best not said,” Bai Yan sounded almost emotionless there as she eyed the confused girl.
As freaky as that attitude was, Di Xaio Wan simply didn’t get it and required more hinting.
“You can’t tell anyone about my son’s identity,” lowering her mouth up to the girl’s ear, Bai Yan used a voice that could only be perceived by them both.
First it was shock, then understanding before Di Xiao Wan flung her head up and down in acknowledgement. As dumb as she was sometimes, not even she would be so clueless as to not understand what Bai Yan was implying now.
“Bai Yan, are you hiding something from me?” Puckering her lips unhappily, Chu Yi Yi asked with grievance in her voice.
“Yi Yi, there are some things that I can’t tell you yet.” Knowing this might be hurtful to her friend, Bai Yan sounded apologetic in her reply.
Just as she wanted to say more to console the poor girl, Bai Yan’s view was caught by the white teenager coming their way. Happy at the sight, she readily greeted the boy first: “You’re back brother. How did it go with that friend of yours, is he fine now?”
According to Bai Xiao’s explanation to Bai Yan, he had met this friend back when she had left home without a word. Due to this, he searched far and wide and even nearly lost his life in an accident. If not for that friend, Bai Xiao would’ve perished long ago.
“Sister, he is all right now.” Bai Xiao’s usually cool attitude grew warmer as he turned to face Di Xiao Wan, “Sister, this girl is….”
The boy knew who Chu Yi Yi was so he didn’t need to ask about her, but Di Xiao Wan was another story.
“She’s Di Cang’s sister,” Bai Yan was very direct there, leaving Di Xiao Wan a tad displeased.
“Instead of introducing me like that, I would rather you say I’m little Xiachen’s aunt,” her cheeks puffing up like a unhappy child throwing a tantrum.
Xiachen’s aunt?
Revealing a flicker of surprise, Bai Xiao’s astonishment only lasted for a brief moment before returning to normal: “Miss Xiao Wan, I understand then. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Bai Xiao and Bai Yan is my sister.”
Not being timid at all, the girl readily stepped over to pat the boy on the shoulder, “Hehe, you are my sister-in-law’s brother, that makes you my younger brother too. Don’t worry, sister here will look after you so feel free to do whatever you like in this world.”
Now this was simply too much for the poor boy. He’s never had a girl be so friendly to him before so he didn’t know how to react to this passionate maiden.
