Seeing the face coming off of her own mother there, Di Ling Yanâs heart immediately grew anxious for fear of being called a liar. So, out of instinct, the pipsqueak reached out to grab the ladyâs sleeve with that pitiful face.
Realizing her own mistake, Bai Yan promptly leaned her head down for a snuggle: âMother believes you, our Ling Yan will never lie to her family. Perhaps there is some spot around here that we donât know about yet, or perhaps.... thereâs some sort of trap that needs to be activated before we can head inside the cave. Regardless, our Ling Yan is speaking the truth.â
Rather than stopping the child from crying, that instead brought a bigger wave of tears to the baby girl.
Mother believes me....
Mother really believes Iâm not lying!
Wooowoo, Mother is still the best in this world.
Getting the hint from his wife, Di Cang steps over and reached out to give his daughter a reassuring hug as well. Then turning to the demon soldiers that has arrived after himself: âYou heard my wife, go scour the mountain, I want to know anyone or anything that exists here!â
He believes his daughter would never lie, so, that means there are hidden secrets on this Demon Mountain in which they are unaware of.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âLing Yan, Iâm sorry,â Bai Xiachen comes forward and presented himself in a guilty fashion, âI left you alone without thinking things through. I will never do it again.â
I shouldâve known better than to think sheâs fine without me after the lightning stopped. Iâm so stupid, I deserve to be hit....
âFather, Mother, that man.... You shouldnât blame him, I donât think heâs a bad person.â The pipsqueak keeps her head low and murmurs this after picking up on what her parent intends to do.
He was fierce, that she wouldnât deny. Plus he also threatened to eat her, but in the end he did let her go did he not? Therefore, in the pipsqueakâs mind, the scum fell into the category of being a good person.
âYou donât have to think too much about it Ling Yan, Iâll let your father investigate the matter. From now on donât go outside on your own again, okay?â Bai Yan rubs her daughterâs back sooth both their mood.
Unless they are a mother themselves, no one else here could relate to this womanâs emotions when she realized her daughterâs disappearance. Itâs enough to tear her soul apart in that initial moment. Thankfully nothing bad happened, otherwise she wouldnât know what to do anymore.
âMother, Iâm sorry, itâs my fault for worrying you and Big Brother. I wonât run away anymore.â
This time things scared her too.
Thankfully that man wasnât a real badass, but then what if she does meet a real bad guy the next time around?
She hasnât lived long enough yet, nor spend enough time with her parents and siblings yet...
âLing Yan.â Jin Tian the little glutton strolled forward then, his chubby body trembling all over as she spoke while grabbing his sisterâs hand: âI promise I wonât rob your food in the future anymore, will you stop going away? Also donât leave me, okay?â
In the heart of this chubby pipsqueak, heâs the sole reason for his twin sisterâs mishap tonight. If he had given her his piece of the pie at dinner, there wouldnât be any reason for Ling Yan to wander around at night due to hunger. So, itâs all his fault for being a selfish foodie.
âSecond Brother...â Di Ling Yanâs mood finally returned to her jolly self as she giggled. Smiling brightly: âI am hungry, I want to eat.â
Bursting into a huge smile as well, Jin Tian desperately nodded.
