Chapter 233 I Only Need to See Her” (1/2)
A smile escapes the man. To Bai Zhanpeng (sickly man), the girl in front of him was no different from seeing his younger sister again from all those years ago….
However wishful that may be, it cannot be true because his sister was already twenty that year when she disappeared. To say Bai Yan to be his niece was more fitting.
“Bai Yan, I will be staying in the city during this period. If there’s anything you need, do come find us at the Dragon Phoenix Inn. Elder Gu, let us go now.” Giving Bai Yan one last glance, Bai Zhanpeng didn’t look back anymore as he strode towards the exit.
“Young Master, you’re almost fully recovered now. With the medicine in our hands, shouldn’t we first return to the Medicine Sect?” The elder was quick to suggest the idea after they were outside.
Shaking his head before turning around, Bai Zhanpeng was full of emotions when he looked at the old manor: “How can I possibly do that? It’s not easy to come across someone so similar to her, there’s no way I can….”

My heart just can’t bear to leave her, even if the girl only has her looks.
Sighing, the old elder laments the cruelty of reality: “But she is not your sister in the end.”
“I know,” the smile becomes a bittersweet one, “Elder Gu, I only want to watch over her, that’s all…. that’s all….”
I have no other wish, just seeing that face is enough. This way, I can at least fantasize her still being by our side and not like how things have turned out now….
Facing the resolve in his young lord, Elder Gu had no choice but to give in: “Then I will go ahead and write letter back to your father first. We should at least inform him.”
“Very well,” frowning, “But, I don’t want you to tell him about Bai Yan yet.”
“Why?” asked the elder in surprise.
“She has strong talent in alchemy so I don’t anyone to disturb her peace because of me.”
