âMhmm, sheâs your fathersâ blood....â Bai Yi Yiâs careful reply hits her sister like a hammer, sending Bai Yan twirling from dizziness.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Undoubtedly, hearing it first hand and making speculations are two different things. Back when she got tossed into the other world and became the Bai Yan of that side, she didnât feel any hurt due to it not being her true life. However, this here wasnât the case. All those memories from her childhood, the memories of her mother and father doting on her, theyâre all shattered now in full like a deceptive lie from her closest kin.
Darkening in the face, Bai Yanâs eyes revealed a flicker of frost that she only used against those foes that wronged her: âYi Yi, lead me to their home.â
At the request, the young girl only hung her head and made an uneasy posture.
âYou donât have to be afraid, just show me the way, Iâm not going to let them steal the things I gave you. They donât deserve what was my motherâs.â Bai Yan says, her smile reassuring and powerful.
âBut...â Despite her own worries, Bai Yi Yi still nodded after meeting her sisterâs gaze, âOkay, Iâll take you.â
Ever since that incident, the lass here has never wanted to step foot into that dreaded home again. However.... If itâs her precious Sister Bai Yan who wants to go then sheâs going to take her there regardless of the lassâs own woes.
......
The former Bai mansion, an estate thatâs neither overly luxurious nor extravagant, a perfect unity between modern and traditional style in its construction.
âMom, itâs not easy for us to finally climb up to this position, Iâm so happy.â Speaking was a girl by the name of Wen Fei Fei, Bai Yanâs stepsister who currently had her head cuddled against the woman that sat next to herself on the sofa. âBut I heard Papa talking with someone over the phone earlier. Heâs still looking for Wen Yan that bitch. Sheâs already left home for so many years, I bet sheâ dead somewhere out there by now.â
Chai Moonâs gaze was all gentle and kind when smiling down at her own daughter despite the foul words coming out of that mouth: âFei Fei, she is still your papaâs daughter so how can he not want to find her? A tiger wouldnât hurt their cub, let alone your papa who is human. Heâs not the type to abandon their child.â
That only roused a new flare of anger in Wen Fei Feiâs heart instead of soothing it: âIf thatâs the case then why did he disregard us for so many years? Isnât it because Bai Yu and Wen Yan? Wen Yan vowed to never return and even changed her to name to Bai Yan to show sheâs not related to us anymore. Humph!â
Moreover, itâs because of such a rebellious daughter that I had to stay away from here for all these years. If it wasnât for Bai Yuâs death, Papa wouldnât have called us here in the first place so I hope that bitch never returns to begin with.
Upon thinking up to here, Wen Fei Feiâs delicate hands would begin to clench up in frustration and annoyance due to the childhood she experienced. Unbeknownst even to her own mother, this girl had more than once snuck over to the Bai estate during her youth, and on every visit, she would see her beloved Papa doting on another child. Imagine experiencing such a scene, anyone would hold resentment in some way even if the fault lied with the one she cared about.
