Chapter 1798 - “Yun Feng’s Peril (4) (1/2)
“Mother!” Di Ling Yan’s face were filled with tears, those big red eyes staring up in a pleading manner, “Are you going to leave Ling Yan behind? I also want to find Grandpapa.”
The sound of the little milky soft bun melted away the demon queen’s hard expression at the moment. Crouching down, the mother reaches out to rub the little head: “Be good Ling Yan, mother is only going inside to search for your grandpapa. We will be back really fast so don’t worry. Can you stay here and wait for mother?”
“Mother lie, it’s clearly very dangerous,” the pipsqueak protests in a pitiful tone. “Ling Yan isn’t as skillful as Big Brother, but as long as I can be together with Mother then I am afraid of nothing. I’m not afraid of danger.”
Bai Yan’s heart felt so sour and pained when hearing that proclamation. Brainstorming a better excuse, the demon queen knew there’s nothing she could say after seeing that stubborn little face.

If we bring you along then that chance would go down drastically because we will need to keep an eye out for you, do you understand? So, stay here with them, your grandpapa’s people will protect you while were away.”

Still staring upwards with those big blue eyes, Di Ling Yan finally relented and gradually lowered her clinging hands from the woman’s sleeve. Nevertheless, the face she made told everyone how much she hated being left behind.
“Okay, I will wait here for you Mother. As long as Mother doesn’t come back then I won’t go anywhere.”
Even if this kind of waiting equated to a lifetime, she won’t budge….
Bai Yan knows her words must hurt a lot, but sometimes the best course of action was to be cruel so it doesn’t hurt more later. The demon queen knows her daughter was cleverer than the average baby, she would eventually understand even if the worse comes to past.
However……
