I’m Back I

Warmth gradually filled Chu Fengyi's eyes. "If there are any areas that you need help in, I can help you."

Bai Yan casually pinched a falling petal. In this gentle breeze, her hair that cascaded like a waterfall was fluttering along with the wind. A gentle and stunning smile appeared on her face.

"Fengyi, do you think that this peach blossom is beautiful?"

Chu Fengyi looked at the woman who was smiling as brightly as the flowers in full bloom and his concentration was a little dazed.

In his eyes, no matter how beautiful the falling peach blossom flowers were, they were not as beautiful as the stunning smile of this woman.

"It's a pity that no matter how beautiful a peach blossom is, it will still wither and fall. And I'm absolutely unwilling to become a peach blossom that cannot survive when leaving the big tree. I only wish for myself to be able to bloom into a peerless beauty without relying on anyone."

Chu Fengyi awakened from his dazed stupor and his gaze was a little complicated. "I understand your meaning, but … if you want to find support in the future, I'm willing to be yours and little Chen'er's support. Before that, I will stay by your side as an elder brother."

Seeing that Chu Fengyi understood her meaning, Bai Yan flashed a smile, held Bai Xiaochen's hand, and slowly turned around. "Let's go, Chen'er."

"Alright." Bai Xiaochen bade farewell to Chu Fengyi with a smile. "See you, Godfather. Chen'er will miss you."

The color of peach blossom covered the sky as Chu Fengyi stood atop a peach blossom tree, watching Bai Yan and Bai Xiaochen leave from a distance.

Even after the two familiar figures disappeared entirely, he was unable to retract his gaze. Under the reflection of the color of the hills on the surface of the lake, he appeared lonely and desolate…

Outside the courtyard, Bai Xiaochen blinked his big eyes as he looked at his own mother and spoke with a soft, mushy voice. "Mother, don't you like Godfather?"

"It is not that Mother dislikes him, it's just that I treat him as only a relative. Since there are no possibilities with him, I naturally will not give him any hope."

She had always liked to do thing decisively and not drag things out. If she did not love him, then she would never give the person a shred of hope.

Bai Xiaochen nodded half understanding. "Although Baby really likes Godfather, Baby likes Mother more. Everything Mother does is correct."

Bai Yan pinched Bai Xiaochen's soft, little face as she said with a smile, "Let's go, follow me home."

"Mother, do you think Uncle will like Chen'er?"

"Do you also care if other people like or dislike you?"

"Because Mother likes him, so Baby also wishes for the people that Mother likes to like me too."

"Since you've already said that he is someone Mother likes, then he'd naturally like you."

Bai Yan held Bai Xiaochen's little hand as their figures slowly grew distant. In this empty and quiet courtyard, all that was left was their voices.

Six years could not be considered long, but neither was it short. Within these six years, there were huge changes in Liu Huo Kingdom.

Firstly, the second princess consort had given birth to the first royal grandson back then and it was during the birth of this royal grandson that there were signs from the heavens and all beasts welcomed their king. It was rumored among the people that the one all the beasts were worshipping was the eldest imperial grandson.

While the word 'demon beast' carried the word 'demon', but in reality, they had an extremely noble identity in the mainland. They were even more so the symbol of strength and one who could rule the demon beasts would also definitely be worshipped by people.

Therefore, an order was made for the second prince to be crowned as the crown prince and the second princess consort also become known as the crown princess consort.

Besides that, what caught the attention of all the women of the world was the sudden appearance of a marquis, Di Cang, five years ago.

Di Cang had unknown origins and his whereabouts were unpredictable. However, he was able to convince his majesty and to be able to use Di1 as a surname, one could see how much importance his majesty placed on him.

Furthermore, Di Cang did not only have strong cultivation, but his looks were absolutely handsomely devilish! Just a look at him could make all the woman on earth go mad for him.
