Chapter 1715: Chapter 1714 - Little Rice Returns (1)

Bai Xiachen pursed his lips, This world has too many bad guys, too many of them...

......

The funeral for State Teacher was held in a grand fashion a day later, drawing nearly all of the Demon Realm’s notable figures for the occasion. However, the mood didn’t bring happiness or joy like Bai Yan’s wedding, only a looming cloud of gloom for all those attendees.

Thankfully for the demon princess, her older brother the king didn’t bury the silvery fox in some sort of underground tomb or cremation, rather State Teacher was preserved inside an ice coffin of grand construction, thus effectively allowed the girl to visit every day to help calm her dreadful mood.

Keeping a few ice coffins may be hard for most people, but the Demon Realm had this much resource at hand.

......

After a couple of weeks later, calm returns to the Demon Realm. It’s just that everyone knows a storm was brewing, a big one at that.

“Auntie,” Bai Xiachen saw his aunt coming out of the icy tomb and quickly stood up, “are we heading home for the day?”

Making a shallow smile with her frail face, Di Xiao Wan caresses her nephew’s head, “You know you don’t have to follow me every day like this, I won’t do anything rash.”

Shaking his little head like a rocking drum: “That won’t do, Mother won’t be at ease unless I’m around. Auntie, don’t be too sad okay.... State Teacher will definitely return one day, and if he doesn’t, I will go and get him personally.”

A sting pierced into the demon princess’s heart. She’s overwhelmed by how sensible this steambun was behaving. From the beginning she’s been wanting a childlike Bai Xiachen, hence her initial acceptance of marrying State Teacher. But now, the only one that’s left was herself...

He’s grown so much in the past year. Xiachen is already up to my waist....

“Mmhmm, of course, our Xiachen is the best, you will definitely bring your uncle back.”

Despite the remark, the hollow void in the lady’s iris didn’t escape the steambun’s keen senses. Bai Xiachen knows, something has died in his aunt’s heart and nothing could fill it. She’s so bleak that it’s hurting him inside as well.

“I’m not just saying that Auntie, I will definitely bring uncle back and have him marry you. Afterwards both of you can make lots of babies!” Radiating confidence, Bai Xiachen’s attitude was quickly starting to resemble his old man’s dominating nature. It’s literally a mini version of Di Cang at this point.

Warmed to the heart by that: “Thank goodness my big bro married your mother, thus giving birth to you. Auntie here is so fortunate to have a nephew like you, now I won’t feel so lonely with the two of you around.”

“Auntie, Baddie Father is only bad at expressing himself, he always looked out for you and everyone close to him. He’s not bad like everyone makes him out to be.”

“I know,” Di Xiao Wan said, “he only claims to hit me if I mess up but never does it.... And like State Teacher, he will secretly drive away those bad people who try to take advantage of me. I know my big bro is good to me like...”

Stopping there, a gloom once again shrouded over the princess’s figure. Bringing the boy into a tight hug: “So, you don’t have to worry about me misunderstanding my brother, I am not a blind person, I can see those who are kind to me.”
