âSoâ¦â Bai Yan suddenly gets all threatening with that oh-so-sweet smile, âIâm considering using your fur feather to make a dress for my daughter.â
Almost immediately, you could see the beaming light of desire shooting out of Di Ling Yanâs eyes right there and then. Sheâs already imagining the picture of herself wearing a cute little dress made of golden fur feathers.
âCHI CHI!â
Neither mother nor daughter is a good person. How could I have ever trusted this woman!
Wanting to cry foul, Chi Chi the golden chickling suddenly found himself in a wolfâs den, unable to escape for the life of himâ¦.
âCHI CHI CHI.â
He chirped and chirped with all his might to make himself look more substantial than he appears for some protection. Sadly, Chi Chiâs tiny stature and squeaky little chirping only made him all the cuter.
Cocking her brow in amusement, Bai Yan almost couldnât hold herself back and laughed: âItâs doesnât matter does it? Your fur feathers will grow back eventually. I can wait until we get together the numbers to make a dress.â
Chirping much harder in frightened fear plastered across those eyes, Chi Chi found his heart thumping hard like a drum being pounded away. If he werenât so brave and manly for his miniature size, the poor thing wouldâve rolled over and dropped dead over those ideas by now.
Without hesitation at the dreadful future, he promptly turned tail and attempted to escape from this pair of evil villains who wanted to use him as a stuffer.
Itâs just that size matters in this case. Regardless of how much the poor guy wanted to run â he ran hard as he could in fact â Chi Chi had already been caught between a pair of fingers around his head like a toy. Realizing this, he stiffly swings his head around to meet that horrific woman directly in the eye.
âChi Chiâ¦â Crying for real instead of simply sobbing, a drop of crystal tear that glistened with golden light trickled down the chicklets eye and made a sparkling impact on the bed.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Unlike ordinary birds, phoenix tears are a rarity and are highly prized materials for a range of professional fields. Since Chi Chi was an ancient golden phoenix, his tears would of course create a magical scene.
âEh?â Di Ling Yan sounded surprised, âChi Chi actually knows how to cry. I thought chickens donât shed tear but only get wet in the eye. If not⦠I donât need his feathers anymore.â Her little face appears troubled.
Make no mistake, the pipsqueak absolutely would love to have those golden fur feathers as material for her dress, butâ¦. how could she ever make someone else cry for her personal gain? That wouldnât be within her character. Therefore, she decides to go against her own desire and deny the idea.
Letting go of the golden fluff feather, Bai Yan leans against the bed like a true queen: âNow are you willing to stay by Ling Yanâs side?â
Still didnât quite get it yet, Chi Chi simply stares into that gorgeous face of the demon queen.
What⦠She was using that to scare me the entire time? So that I would know the girl wouldnât harm me?
âI know youâre smart, and youâve lived a long time, but⦠If I hadnât shown up, Iâd believe you would still be stuck inside that ruin.â Ticking her lips into a smirk, Bai Yan grins with her teeth showing since sheâs got him.
Sure enough, Chi Chi got all quiet.
Indeed, when his previous master left and put him inside that egg, his only hope was another person appearing inside the ruins and activating the release seal.
âChi Chi.â Gradually, the initial fear from before dissipated at the thought.
Slowly standing up, Bai Yan gets serious after seeing her idea has gone through.â I cannot accompany my daughter at all times of the day. Therefore, I will need someone I trust watching over her for people that wants to harm her and the like, especially those misbehaving menâ¦. Do not let any of that type near her, understand?!â
When reaching the last part of her sentence, the demon queen made sure to narrow her eyes in to ghet the point through.
She wonât prevent her daughter from finding a husband in the future, but that doesnât mean she wonât vet for scums that might have ideas about the pipsqueak. It would be a utter failure on her part as a mother if she allowed such a thing to happen.
âChi Chi~â
