âThank you for taking care of Bai Yan and Xiachen during this period.â Giving a nod to the girl, Chu Yi Feng immediately covers up his emotions again.
Is this man claiming ownership? Di Xiao Wanâs quickly narrowed in on that statement.
âButâ¦â¦â Knitting up her forehead, Di Xiao Wan was ready to refuse that request only to stop at the last moment. Towards that pitiful face made by her little nephew, this girl just didnât have the heart to say no. âOkay, Auntie will bring you to get some Osmanthus cake.â
âThank you Auntie!â Bursting into a gleeful smile, Bai Xiachen knew heâs succeeded now.
The boyâs plan was simple, deceive his sweet dumbaclutz auntie away so she doesnât get into a fight with Chu Yi Yi again. Sure enough, it worked perfectly. Very soon, their figures were gone from the hall, thus leaving the eerily quiet hall in the background.

âYi Fengâ¦â Facing this man thatâs as calm as a cool spring breeze, Bai Yan finally worked up the nerve to whatâs on her mind: âDid you come because Yi Yi told you about Di Cang?â
âYes,â still indifferent and calm, the man answers smoothly, âShe said you were being picked on really badly by him, and that you were being restricted in your freedom. Also⦠this letter fell in the hands of your three shifus. They flew into a huge rage right after reading it. By the time I started to come, they were already well on their way to the Liu Huo Kingdom.â
Deliberately hiding her own presence knowing full well how guilty she herself was, Chu Yi Yi finally crumbled under that pressuring gaze. Nervous in her tune: âI⦠I was just kidding.â
âKidding?â Clicking her tongue at the dishonest answer, Bai Yan thrusts her friend into the open: âWhat kidding? You were obviously saying the truth when writing that letter.â
Isnât that right? Di Cang that bastard only knows how to take advantage of me, constantly forcing his ways against my will when Iâm not careful. Then thereâs the matter of squatting around in my home and refusing to leave!
ââ¦..â
Did I take this wrong? Di Cang never covered a spot in her heart?
âYouâ¦â Unlike his sister though, Chu Yi Feng appears troubled after hearing that statement, âHave you always been like that in front of him?â
Bai Yan have always been either respectful or distant to those who she doesnât like. Even for himself, Chi Yi Feng could only get a mild attitude thatâs neither overly warm nor overly cold when they are talking. But now, the womanâs gnashing her teeth at the mention of Di Cangâs name?
âUhumph!â Suddenly, Old Lord Lan interrupts the pair with that awkward cough, his eyes constantly eying the new man up and down, âYan Yan, mind introducing us?â
âSo thatâs why,â pretending to be enlightened by the information, the old grandpa was beaming with approval in his eyes. âI like to thank you, Young man. If not your familyâs kindness, I fear my dear granddaughter there wouldnât have been so well off while away from home.â
