Itâs then Di Xiao Wan (demon princess) came running from the rear. Right as the girlâs about to throw herself into Bai Yanâs arm, Di Cang had already stepped in to stop her with a holding hand.
Black in the face: âDonât you see your sister-in-law is pregnant? How can you be so reckless?â
Staring wide eye now over that knowledge, the demon princessâs gaze slowly locked onto her sister-in-lawâs belly before popping them eyeballs out in surprising glee.
âSister-in-law, are you pregnant? Am I going to have another nephew?â Due to how emotional she was, Di Xiao Wanâs voice was trembling with excitement, causing her to go back and forth between giving a hug or staying back due to the threatening face of the man next to herself.
âAuntie,â Bai Xiachen sounded very displeased, âitâs a little sister, a little sister!â
Puckering her lips in a childish manner, Di Xiao Wan began poking at that logic: âAnd how do you know itâs a little sister?â
âMy sister told me personally so it will be a sister.â
Saying the unborn baby was a boy has now become a taboo for the kid because he immediately got all defensive.
Itâs clearly a beautiful and good little sister, why does Auntie say itâs a boy?
âOkay, okay, itâs a little sister as you say.â Rubbing her nephewâs head, the demon princess didnât want to argue on the subject, which promptly earned her a happy grin from the boy.
âI will be a good big brother, I will protect my little sister.â
The little steambunâs comment completely wins over the demon princess and made her give him a peck on the cheek. Itâs just too cuteâ¦.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âSister-in-law,â letting go after her act, Di Xiao Wan finally returns her attention to why sheâs here, âCan I come with you?â
âNo.â Bai Yan didnât need to think on the matter and refused right away. âYour strength is too weak so you canât go to that battlefield.â
âSister-in-law!â Pleading by swinging Bai Yanâs arm, the demon princess appears all pitiful with that puckered lip, âI really wonât be a baggage, reallyâ¦.â
âWhen you break into the Celestial Rank then Iâll take you.â Bai Yan wasnât going to budge on the decision so her answer remains firm.
Hanging that head in a depressed manner: âOkay, but my strength is sealed away and Brother wonât help me lift it.â That said, the princess then shifted her sight onto the demon king like itâs his fault.
âState Teacher is already out looking for the materials to help lift your seal, bear with it for now.â
âReally?â Di Xiao Wanâs eyes lit up with an cheeky smile of huffiness, âDonât think I will forgive him just like that. If it wasnât for him, Sister-in-law wouldnât have run away from home.â
Anyway, itâs all his fault. If he didnât secretly make a substitute for Brother behind everyoneâs back then none of that wouldâve happened. He wonât get forgiveness so easily.
âYou stay here and wait for State Teacher to come back,â Bai Yan pats the girl on the head to settle the matter. Turning to the rest of the elders, âItâs about time, weâre leaving now.â
âYes, Queen.â They respond with resonating unity.
âMother,â itâs then the little steambun tugged at the womanâs sleeve, âare you not going to bring me?â
âXiachen, you wait at home for me too.â
âWhy?â getting teary red in the eye, âI went into the secret domain so that I can protect you Mother, why wonât you let me follow?â
