Inside of the room, Dragony sat next to her brother with eyes blinking in wonderment: âGege, is that Bai Ningâ¦. really our grandmother? Is there a chance that itâs just the same name?â
Bai Xiachen shook his head, denying the theory: âI do not believe there is such coincidence in this world, perhaps something happened and made her lose her memory? Dragony, we must follow her around until Mother arrives.â
The reason why the little steambun was so sure Bai Yan would come searching for them was the contract inside of the old goat and snake. The familiars themselves may not be able to sense their mistressâs location, but Bai Yan most certainly could through the bond.
âOkay, if thatâs what you want Gege.â Drawing a sweet smile, the little missyâs compliance was as strong as ever.
Peng!
Suddenly, the door to their room was knocked open, drawing their attention to Ning Yu who barged in on them from the outside. The girl was fierce and aggressive, slamming the box in hand in front of the boy: âHereâs your stupid cake!â
âSo fast?â said Bai Xiachen with raised eyebrow. âIt couldnât be something you got from the kitchen and not the next street over right?â
Despite the increasingly dark gloom hovering above her face, Ning Yu kept her voice low in order to avoid rousing Bai Ning to their conversation. âWhy are you getting so picky and choosey for? Youâre nothing but a little beggar that Auntie Ning took in out of kindness, know your place!â
Bai Xiachenâs expression promptly turned somber as he stared down at the smashed box in front of himself. Not only was that remark from the girl an absolute insult, the food was as well in open form.
âWhat relationship do you have with Pretty Granny?â He asks with heavier tone.
Snorting derisively: âI am her niece right now, of course, thatâs only temporary. In the future I will be her daughter instead.â
âWhat do you mean by that?â
âYou still donât understand? Auntie Ning is going to marry my father, of course she will become my mother afterwards. So, you better stay away from my future mother you little beggar!â
The boy could barely hold in the flare of rage brewing from within: âYou say Pretty Granny is going to marry your father? Humph, why do I highly doubt that claim? If she really was willing to marry your father then you wouldnât be calling her auntie still after being together for so long!â
Although Bai Ning claims that she doesnât know Yun Feng (husband) of the Misty Fairy House, it doesnât matter, the little steambun had a strong intuition sheâs the one, the long-lost grandmother that theyâve been searching for.
Grandfather is still waiting for her at home, she cannot marry someone else! Also, I wonât let anyone coming around to destroy Motherâs happiness!
âThe issue is just a matter of time. Regardless, you little beggars better stay away from my Auntie Ning, otherwise the pain will be yours to bear!â The girl huffs, swinging herself around to leave only to be alarmed by the table being flipped over by the boy behind herself.
Standing there in stunned rigidness, Ning Yu awkwardly turned around again, surprised by what the kidâs doing. She simply didnât have a clue as to what the boy was planning, this also applied to the two bodyguards next door who overheard the commotion and rushed over.
