Chapter 628 - No One Can Replace Dai’er

Si Mobai sneered coldly, “Prince Xi, don’t tell me you want to rely on a pet beast to go look for someone named Dai’er before you get married to make up for the regret in your heart?”

Hearing these words, Xi Jin’s warm face sank in an instant and tightly pursed his lips.

“You’ve mistaken Tu Xiupei for Dai’er. Who are you going to replace her with now?” Si Mobai’s cold voice cut like a sharp blade as he continued, “No one can replace anyone. If you really like her, why are you getting married to another person? Why do you want to find a similar person to live in her place? It all boils down to the fact that you basically don’t like her at all. It’s just an obsession, that’s all.”

Feng Tianlan quietly stood next to Si Mobai. Although these words were very stinging, Xi Jin should sober up. Shen Qingdai had died. She was completely dead. Even if she were to be born again, her state of mind was not Shen Qingdai.

Xi Jin did not speak. He just looked up at the snowflakes fluttering in the air and landing on his body in pieces. The icy cold touch went straight into the bottom of his heart, leaving him no choice but to face the reality that Dai’er was completely dead.

“Yes, no one can replace Dai’er.” A snowflake fell into his eyes and he slowly closed his eyes. He never believed that Dai’er was dead and had always held out a sliver of hope that she was still alive. Like what Ya’er had said, she had reincarnated in someone else’s body.

But Ya’er had lied to him. She only deceived him in order to make him live on. He knew the possibility was not highly likely, but he still believed in his own lies.

He just wanted Dai’er to live. It was that simple. But why was it so hard?

Feng Tianlan looked up at Xi Jin. A drop of crystal clear tear rolled down from the corner of his eye and quickly dropped to the snow before vanishing. It made her heart uncomfortable, too. But it was the best for him in this way.

“Perhaps Xiao Qing’s horn was broken by the death of its Master,” said Feng Tianlan, looking at Xiao Qing, who was still whimpering at Xi Jin. She reached out to caress its half-broken horn and asked, “Isn’t it, Xiao Qing?”

Xiao Qing only broke its horn to save her. However, it was not enough for it to disobey her words and express several times to Xi Jin that she was Shen Qingdai.

It was not the best outcome for her as well as for Xi Jin.

Xiao Qing was threatened by its Master, so it gave an aggrieved cry, declaring that its Master was terrible for not recognizing it and even threatening it.

Feng Tianlan gently trailed along the tuft of white fur underneath Xiao Qing’s horn and said, “In fact, Supremacy Jin, the reason you mistook Tu Xiupei is also because of Xiao Qing. It misses its Master excessively. It must be feeling the same as Supremacy Jin, wanting to find a person similar to Dai’er to replace Dai’er as its Master.”

Xi Jin’s face changed. Was Xiao Qing the same way too?

Xiao Qing felt its white fur being pulled at a little and it hurriedly whined while nodding. Master, how could it not hurt your conscience while you wrongly accused Xiao Qing?

“After Tu Xiupei’s death, Xiao Qing was also nice to me for a long time. It must have been looking for some spiritual comfort,” Feng Tianlan gently caressed Xiao Qing and said in a low voice, “You mustn’t mistake me for someone else anymore. Mobai doesn’t like me as someone else’s substitute, and I’m just Feng Tianlan.”

Xiao Qing whined miserably. Its round and big eyes misted as it wretchedly looked at Feng Tianlan, thinking, Master, how can you threaten Xiao Qing like this? Looking at my eyes gleaming with tears, does it pain your conscience for not letting Xiao Qing acknowledge you?

Si Mobai directly swatted with his hand and said, “I’ll cook you to feed the cats.”

Xiao Qing made a whimper and directly flew up in the air. Master had said before that if it acknowledged her, her life would be in danger. So, it did not acknowledge her now. But if there were a chance, it had to tell Grandmaster the reason to see who would want to harm Master.
