Chapter 67 I Want a Sister” (2/2)
“Meow.”
Giving one last glance at the pair of mother and son, Little Rice turns away and disappeared around the street…
“Let’s go, we’re going home.” Embracing the little guy in her arms, Bai Yan led the way for the Lan family’s estate.
When she returned again, her uncle Lan Yu still hasn’t returned yet despite being the first one going out to inquire about Bai Xiao. Based on this situation, it’s safe to assume the guy won’t be coming back anytime soon…
As worrying as this may be, Lan Xiaoyun didn’t have that kind of deep mentality to worry. To her, the girl only wanted to play with the fox by following Bai Yan back to her room. However, when she tried, the end result was a direct slam of the door in her face, close enough to hit her nose.
Rubbing her sore front, Lan Xiaoyan looked aggrieved by the treatment. Fortunately for her, she was smart enough to remember the promise. Only with that did she relent.
“Oh well, at least cousin promised to let me pick a fox later. No need to be so eager.” With her good mood, she gives one last look at the closed door behind her and walked away.
……
After waiting for Lan Xiaoyun’s fading footstep to disappear completely, only then did Bai Yan exhale a sigh of relief and turned her gaze back to the little fox on the table.
Under the swaying lamp light, that small little figure begins to change. Growing and growing, it transforms into a milky white doll of a child.
“Xiachen, what happened to your uncle?” She asked with worry in her voice.
“Mother, that bad woman is so hateful!” The little boy looked steaming from how pink his cheeks were. “She wouldn’t even get a doctor for uncle when he’s sick. I also overheard them calling you bad names!”
“And then?”
“The mother of that bad woman told her to make babies with another person. Mother, can you also make more babies? I want a sister to keep me company.” Blinking his sparkling and innocent eyes, Bai Xiachen pleads.
Making an awkward cough, Bai Yan rigidly replies: “You don’t even have a father, how am I supposed to make a sister for you?”
