As dubious as she was over that statement, Di Xiao Wan could find no fault in Long Chang Tianâs answer. As such, she could only give a nod: âThen go, I will give you half an hour and no later. When she returns, I want to see the girl in pristine condition.â
âAuntie,â Bai Xiachenâs cheek puffs up, âMy father and mother had me watch over this girl, if sheâs bulliedâ¦.â
âAs if he would dare,â the demon princess openly sneers, âIf he does dare to bully Dragony then he better be prepared for the soldiers to rain down from above his head!â
This Long Chang Tian isnât that stupid. Even if he does, it wonât be happening inside the palace.
âDragony, you go ahead.â Patting the little missyâs shoulder, Di Xiao Wan indicates its safe to move forward: âMake sure to come back soon.â
âOkay.â Curving into a squint in those eyes, Dragonyâs face was all cheers as she greeted her old man: âFather.â
âCome my daughter.â Pressing down the touch of darkness in his eyes, Long Chang Tian smiles warmly as he led the clueless girl to the back end of the open air alter. But once out of sight and alone, the fatherly aura that this dragon chief portrayed was all inclusively, gone⦠All that remains now in this person was a stern look of someone ready to give an order.
âPapa?â asked Dragony who was still unclear on the danger sheâs in. âDo you have something to say to me?â
âDragony, listen!â Long Chang Tian presses down on those small shoulders, his tone severe and serious: âYour sister has failed. From now on the pride and image of our clan lies in your hands!â
Staring up in surprise, âPapa, I donât really donât understand what you meanâ¦ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âIâll get straight to the point, I want you to marry the king! You can now get close to the queen, that means only you can become a maid of the White Moon Palace!â
âButâ¦â The girlâs little face devolved into a look of unwilling
grievance, âI donât like the king, I like the queen. Can I marry Her Highness the Queen instead?â
Long Chang Tian was actually at a loss for words there, he forgot this daughter of his wasnât normal and could hardly make out the meaning of marriage.
But times of the essence, he doesnât have room to explain slowly. âYou must become the kingâs woman, just like the queen of today! This is the order Iâm giving you, can you understand?â
âI donât!â Dragony shuddered at the commanding tone and took a step back, her eyes filled with tears: âI donât want to be around the king, I only like the queen.â
âIf you donât want to marry the king then the little prince can do too, didnât you justâ¦.â Growing anxious now, Long Chang Tianâs expression was quickly turning ugly, When did this girl become so disobedient?
âBut Papa, I only like the queen, I just want to marry her, I donât want anyone else, whoo-hoo~â Fully crying, Dragonyâs whole body was now a shivering mess.
Todayâs Papa is so scary⦠why must he make me marry the king or prince? I donât want to!
âDragony!â The dragon chief grew infuriated and violently grasped onto the girlâs shoulder, thus causing enough pain to make his daughter wail out in grief.
âIâm sorry Dragony, it was my fault, I got too anxious. Hurry and let me see your shoulder.â
He raised his hand and wanted to check, but before he could do so, the sobbing girl actually retaliated by pushing him away in one forceful swing.
Where did this one get such strength from? Shock and disbelief filled the manâs eye as he took in what just occurred.
âYou are a bad guy, I hate you the most, donât touch me, I am going to find the queen!â Dragonyâ face now displays open anger as the two lines of tears covered up that delicate face.
