293 So Magical (2/2)
Yao Ling started to understand her parents' personality and she asked, ”Did my father accept the arrangement?”
”That was actually the problem... Rong Qiu was a proud person and he chose to die rather than become a puppet,” Aunt Yue explained in a sad voice. She fought a lot with Rong Qiu about it... It made Aunt Yue feel a massive headache back then. Aunt Yue wanted them to stay there quietly at least for a few years and observed what happened to their people.
However, Rong Qiu disagreed. Not only because of his stubbornness, but he was also worried about the pregnant Su Wan. Once Rong Qiu knew that his wife was able to leave, he insisted that they should only pretend to submit to them. Once the right time came, they should leave and try to find Su Wan. However, since when running away was easy?
They were in a foreign kingdom and didn't know anything about it. Not only that, if they were hastily running away, what if the Han Emperor hunted the rest of their people and killed them?
In this matter, Yao Ling found that her grandmother was more clearheaded than her father. She asked, ”Why...? Why did my father seem to be so muddleheaded?” In Yao Ling's mind, if he was the future leader, he should think of his people first.
Aunt Yue sighed. ”It can't be blamed solely on your father...”
Yao Ling looked at Aunt Yue in confusion. Her father was the one who made such a decision, then who else could they blame ah~?
”You need to know about the real reason because it will affect your life too,” Aunt Yue said softly. ”Once you get married and make love... you will have a bond with your spouse.”
”Bond? What kind of bond?” Yao Ling furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. There were so many pieces of information that she needed to digest in one go and she started to understand how Xiao Fang had felt back then.
”When you made love... have your husband ever told you that something weird happened back then?” Aunt Yue asked curiously.
Yao Ling shook her head. They just consumed the marriage a few days ago and then she touched the symbols. After that... she started to realize something, she didn't know where she was! Suddenly, her grandmother appeared out of nowhere! Yao Ling gasped and asked, ”Grandmother... what actually happened to me?! Where am I? Where is Yao Ying?”
Aunt Yue noticed that her granddaughter was in a panic, thus, she explained everything. Yao Ling felt her knees go weak. She couldn't believe that she was actually in a coma and her grandmother was meeting her inside her dream!
What kind of weird thing was this?!
Yao Ling asked, ”But why does this dream feel so real? I can feel my own heartbeat and even feel pain!”
Aunt Yue laughed, ”Because, in a way, this can be said as a different reality... this isn't just a simple dream... I used my power...”
Yao Ling nodded in understanding. Then, she admitted, ”We just consumed the marriage the day before I touched the symbols, so even if there was something weird happened, my husband wouldn't have the chance to tell me.”
Aunt Yue merely gaped at her. No wonder Yao Ling seemed to be oblivious to everything, hence Aunt Yue decided to explain once again. ”You should ask your husband whether there was a shining birthmark on your body. The shape should be a crescent moon,” Aunt Yue said.
”What's the connection between the birthmark and the bond?” Yao Ling asked. She couldn't believe that there was a part of her body that actually could glow! What kind of crazy thing was that? For her real clan, it must be an ordinary thing. But for Yao Ling who lived on the outside world, she felt that it was so magical!
