âXiachen, you donât want to see me?â Hurt to the point where his heart aches terribly, Bai Zhanpeng asks with sadness in his voice.
âNo, itâs not like that,â the boy hurries to reply after seeing the manâs reaction, âI also like Grandpa Zhanpeng a lot.â
âThen why do you want to leave as soon as you saw me?â
âIâ¦â Not answering for the longest time, Bai Xiachen took a good minute before he could make up his mind, âGrandpa Zhanpeng, I wonât leave, donât worry.â
âXiachen, your mother, is she⦠also here as well?â Bai Zhanpeng hurries to ask.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Blinking his eyes at the inquiry, Bai Xiachen faintly nods in confirmation: âMhmm, Mother is at the main avenue. Do you want to meet her?â
Itâs absolutely true the man here wanted to meet his niece before knowing sheâs here, but now that heâs confronting with the truth, it appears Bai Zhanpeng was starting to get the cold feet instead.
What would she do if I tell her right away about our relationship? Maybe she would take it as me trying to use her or something badâ¦.
No!
I canât let the small little bit of good feelings I built in her eyes to be tarnished over something mediocre like impatience. I must come up with a way to prove our identity with Father first.
Also, it will also avoid those other people within the Medicine Sect from saying those irresponsible remarks.
âThisâ¦â The manâs head churned with ideas, his eyes nervous and unsure when meeting the baby boyâs eye: âXiachen, I like to ask you a question. If, letâs say ifâ¦. what if your mother suddenly discovers she has another grandfather, would she accept him?â

âWell thatâs of course if this grandfather likes me a lot,â blinking his big innocent eyes, Bai Xiachen tilts his head like heâs a tad confused by the strange question. âMother would surely like him as well if thatâs the case.â
ââ¦..â
Bai Zhanpeng became rather speechless over this answer. Itâs too straightforward.
âXiachen, your great grandfather would surely like you, just that your mother, sheâ¦.â
âI have a way,â Bai Zhanpengâs eye flashed with glee, âAs long as Xiachen you help me get a close intimate object from your mother, even a strand of hair will do, then I can do that. Will you help Grandpa Zhanpeng in the task?â
Even if the man himself was already sure of Bai Yanâs identity to a certain degree, but merely recognizing the girl back into the family wouldnât be enough. His main objective lies in gifting the entire Medicine Sect to the girl. In that case, he must stuff up the mouths of those old-timers first using a special method. Blood mixing wonât prove anything, he knows that much.
âReally?â The boyâs eye lit up as well, âThen Grandpa Zhanpeng can help find my Motherâs relative?â
âI can only give it a try. In addition, this is a secret between us. Donât tell your mother first.â Rubbing that little head, the manâs expression shined with gentle warmth.
âOkay!â Giving a serious nod, Bai Xiachen then became troubled while he bit his lip: âBut Grandpa Zhanpeng, would you⦠letâs say if, if your daughter was bullied by someone, would you hate those people?â
