Chapter 419 “Leaving (4)”
Receiving the Dan pill from his mother, Bai Xiachen had no qualms about forcing it down the fatty’s throat.
Naturally Nangong Lin would be very much afraid over what he just ingested. In his panic, the fatty urgently attempts to puke it back out using his finger as a mean. Sadly, there’s no way that would be possible when such amazing medicines are prone to melt upon contact with one’s saliva. In the end, the only thing that ever came back out was a bucket of yellow vomit and stomach fluid.
“You…” Initially that voice still carried an intense rage, enough to frighten even an adult, but that quickly changed when Nangong Lin’s iris began to hollow out into emptiness and confusion.
It’s as if the child just forgot his current situation during that split second.
“Mother?” Puzzled in his voice, Bai Xiachen turns to the source for an answer.
Isn’t the pill from Mother some sort of healing medicine?
Not minding her son’s doubt, Bai Yan slowly came before the prince and revealed the truth: “Tell me, who are you?”
“I am… who am I?” Still full of confusion in his eyes, the fatty peers up at the reddish figure without a clue to his surroundings.
“Remember, you are the grandson of the current king of Liu Huo, Nangong Lin. I am going to send you back to the palace, and there you shall stay by the Dowager’s side while you grow up. Always keep this in mind, you won’t listen to anyone’s word, only your grandmother’s.”
Nodding aimlessly, the fatty gradually responds with a certain level of understanding: “Okay, I will listen to my grandmother’s teaching.”
“Very good, I will get someone to take you home now.” After saying this, Bai Yan wasted no time in calling a guard from within the Lan estate to do the deed.
“Mother, what’s wrong with him?” Even more puzzled than before, Bai Xiachen makes a tug at his mother’s sleeve with those puppy eyes of his.
“I only made him lose all of his memories, and nothing in the future would help him recover them again,” faintly smiling, “this is for his own good, the best ending for everyone.”
That’s right, Nangong Lin has once again become a blank slate ready to be molded like a newborn baby. Whether or not this child becomes evil or good in the future, that would be entirely up to the Dowager’s teaching from now on.
Making a clear nod of agreement, it appears the little steambun thought the same: “That’s wonderful Mother. With Queen Granny’s personality, there’s no way Nangong Lin would turn out the way that he did anymore. He would definitely become a good person when he grows up.”
Pleased with his son’s view, Bai Yan readily rubs the boy’s head with amusement in her eyes: “Let’s go then, we need to first say goodbye to everyone inside before setting off tomorrow.”
If it was the past her than she wouldn’t have shown such mercy or kindness, that much Bai Yan was certain of. However, she has her son now….. For him, she would become the saving grace if she must to be the ideal model!
“Mother, can we come back quickly from the trip?” Showing distress on his cute little face, the baby boy just lost all of the glee from his eyes.
Oh crap, what to do, I promised to help Baddie Father earlier. If we leave then it would mean he won’t be able to find us upon his return!
“Okay.” Though Bai Yan was slightly taken aback by the request, she nevertheless answers it without further thought in mind.
The woman just couldn’t fathom her own flesh and blood, the very part that brings joy to her very existence, would actually betray her and sell herself out to Di Cang.
…….
Once inside the Lan estate, Bai Yan immediately went about in informing her family the news that she’s leaving for a few days. Though the rest of the Lan family members were reluctant to see her go, but it was Lan Xiaoyun who made the biggest commotion by crying her hearts out until snot and tears filled that dainty face.
No matter how much this hurts, they knew it wouldn’t change Bai Yan’s mind.
Due to the suddenness of this trip, it’s only to be expected that she wouldn’t catch everyone with the news in time. Take Chu Yi Yi and Di Xiao Wan for example. Because these two troublemakers were out making their round across the city, they didn’t even get wind of this news until the following morning. By then, it was already too late and the pair was long gone.
Chu Yi Yi was still okay in how she took the news, but the demon princess on the other hand could only be called earthshattering. She really did make it seem like the world’s about to fall apart in the way she’s ready to faint.
“This time that ferocious brother of yours wouldn’t beat you to death, would he?” As if her friend’s worry wasn’t bad enough, Chu Yi Yi just had to add this tidbit to frighten the poor demon girl to the brink of insanity.
As result of the blow, Di Xiao Wan finally collapsed, I miss my gentle and kind State Teacher…..
