In order to pursue her husband, Huang Xiao Ying would go to any lengths at this point. Pity though the main tiger of the show wasnât around to see this, otherwise it would be a real showstopper!
âThatâs fine.â Chu Yi Yi grasped onto the tigressâs hand in support, âIâm looking forward to the day where you and Little Rice marry. Now can you take us to Di Xiao Wan? We got something to discuss with her.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âOf course!â Huang Xiao Yingâs smile grew more brilliant at the future, âBut you must help me persuade Little Rice for sure though. Aside from being a little older than he is, Iâm perfectly good for a wife...â
âOlder?â Chu Yi Yi eyed the tigress with an examining look, unable to discern the actual age of this lady due to that youthful face.
âMhmm, Little Rice hates it that Iâm older than he is, thatâs why he wonât accept me.â She puckers her lip like an aggrieved wife waiting for her man to return.
âCan I ask, how old are you exactly?â
Huang Xiao Ying stretched out a finger as a reply.
âOne yearâs old?â
One year older is nothing, why would Little Rice dislike her?
She shook her head at the guess.
âHmm, then... ten years older?â
Ten years older is a bit of a stretch, but itâs not impossible, right?
She shakes that head again: âI am a hundred years older...â
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
Rocked by the thundering explosion in her own head, Chu Yi Yi didnât even know how to respond to this revelation.
A hundred years old... at this age... sheâs even older than my grandpa!
No wonder Little Rice is so reluctant....
âActually, Iâm still considered young... Take Di Xiao Wan for example. My impression of her is that sheâs a hundred years old, but First Elder told me the princess is already a millennium in age.â Huan Xiao Ying pinches her lip into a flat line as she hung her head depressingly, âWhy is Little Rice refusing my advances? I donât get it....â
An awkward and shocked smile gripped onto Lan Xiaoyunâs face like a haunted ghost.
Di Xiao Wan is a thousand years old!
Sheâs a thousand years old!
And we.... I just found that out....
.................
Demon Palace.
Sitting at the edge of her own roomâs balcony, Di Xiao Wan the demon princess was currently propping her chin against those hands and staring up into the blood-colored moon.
âBig Bro has been gone for a few days already, why hasnât he return with Sister-in-law and Xiachen yet?
I havenât seen them for so long time...
âYour Royal Highness,â a palace maid hurriedly ran over then to make a report, âMiss Huang Xiao Ying of the Tiger Clan has come to seek an audience.â
âHuang Xiao Ying? What is she coming to see me for? Iâm not seeing her, Iâm not! I wonât see anyone but my sister-in-law and new niece!â Huffing a snort, she shakes her head back and forth to emphasize her droopy mood.
âBut... Huang Xiao Ying brought two girls with her, they claim you and them are the Earth Shattering Triple Three...â
Wahh!
Before the palace maid could even finish her words, Di Xiao Wan had already bolted out of there, leaving only a stunned looking messenger in the rear coughing from the dust created.
âChu Yi Yi, Lan Xiaoyan!â Even from afar, the demon princess could already recognize those two humans standing there. Without delay, she ran over to give each a hearty hug. âHow did you both get here, and how did you get to the Demon Realm? Why didnât you send me a message? I couldâve had someone go pick you two up.â
At first the two princesses of their own home were at odds with each other, but after some further mingling and fighting, Chu Yi Yi and Di Xiao Wan were now close friends. As the old saying goes, one doesnât get to know one another unless they fight, which created their profound friendship.
Of course, thereâs also the important factor of Chu Yi Yi giving up on helping Chu Yi Feng from pursuing Bai Yan. Otherwise, any friendship would mean squat in this case!
