32 Chapter Thirty-two

After stumbling around for a while, Meng finally found herself in front of the royal library. Her eyes lit up when saw it and a small spark of hope started in her heart.

The reason why Feng Wi turned bad had to be because she didn't know how to raise kids right. Therefore, as long she learned, wouldn't she be able to fix this mess easily?

Meng's steps were hesitant as she walked into the library. 'Please let this one last thing turn out right for me.' 

Cultivation books were easy to find as they were plentiful in numbers. However, when it came to books on raising children, it was most likely limited to around at most ten.

Her heart felt helpless as she stared at the legion of books in front of her. Her lazy nature fought with her need to protect Feng Qi, creating chaos in her mind. Inhaling a breath, Meng forced her first foot toward the endless sea of books.

Soon came the second, third, and forth step as she accepted her fate and walked up to a book shelf.

Seeing that the one book shelf out of a hundred, already had approximately two thousand books, Meng felt miserable inside.

For the first time ever, she felt like a stranger among books. Then again, she never had to search for a needle in a hay stack before either. Actually, it was more accurate to say the past her would have never even tried to find a needle in a hay stack.

Yet, thinking of Feng Qi's resilience in 'Defying Moonlight', she hardened her heart and picked up a random book.

Flipping through the first few pages, Meng put back the book and picked up another one, repeating the task. 

'Not it.... Nope...Nothing here...hmm Tigress Creates a Dragon? ... Nope that's smut... All done with this shelf,'

At the moment that Meng's sore hands traveled to the next book shelf to grab another book a noise sounded out from behind her.

[Cough, Cough] 

The sound broke through her focus causing Meng to turn her head as she raised an eyebrow in confusion. Behind her was the little old man who claimed to be Rong You.

His wrinkled face was filled with dissatisfaction as her glared at her with accusing eyes. His foot tapped on the ground in aggravation, but the entire time this intense glare was happening he didn't say anything.

"Are you ok R-master?" Meng looked at him in utter bewilderment. Why did he look like she killed his puppy when she wasn't even paying attention to him? Could is be his psychosis acting up? 

"Humph. After being gone for five days you dare come in here and not even acknowledge this old man!?" He turns his head away as if dismissing her presence.

Meng's eyes grew wide with horror as she processed this information. She was asleep for five days? Who knew how many things had changed during that time!

The emperor was probably still waiting for her to explain why the maid ripped of their own arm and to fix the situation. Feng Qi's problem probably got worse without treatment....

A crease formed in the middle of Meng's eyebrows as her face was covered with worry. Seeing his disciple like this Rong You felt pleased and decided that he wouldn't hold a grudge this time. Bai Yao Ling seemed to have accepted that she was in the wrong, therefore how could he be petty?
