Chapter 1099 - War’s Prelude (9)
Chu Yi Feng furrows his forehead tightly as he mused over that knowledge. Shaking his head: “No, I do not know him.”
“That so…” Bai Yan sighed, “Perhaps it’s a coincidence. You and him are so similar that I thought you would be related to him in some way.”
Maybe I’m overthinking this matter and is possible for two different people to look the same.
“Yi Feng.” Drawing closer to the man, Bai Yan wants to make sure her thoughts are made clear so her following words are exactly what she feels: “No matter what happens, you will always be Xiachen’s godfather and my godbrother. I believe one day your fateful one will appear and you will be able to stop focusing on me.”
She now has nothing else to ask for now, only for this man to drop her from his heart. Only by doing so would he be able to find happiness like herself.
Not answering right away, Chu Yi Feng gaze met the woman’s before breaking out into a faint chuckle, “Okay.”
From the first day that I met you, when have I ever refuse your request? It’s just this request, I’m afraid I won’t be able to do it for the rest of my life….
This time the man hid his sadness very well to the point where Bai Yan couldn’t even pick it up.
Patting that shoulder foolishly like she’s solved a lingering dilemma: “Alright, I’m going to go now because Di Cang is going to get impatient soon. You shouldn’t stay outside so much either. Your father is a good man and he worries for you…” That said, the woman didn’t linger around and left for where her family should be waiting.
To be clear, it’s not like Bai Yan doesn’t understand having someone give up on their love was a hard thing to do, the issue was she doesn’t have any other solution. It’s not like she could just give in to the other man’s feeling and go behind her husband’s back? That would be cheating on Di Cang and she’s not that type of woman to play around!
……
Di Cang was already waiting by the exit when Bai Yan arrived at the mentioned spot.
“Finished?” he asks with no discernable sourness.
Shrugging at her husband’s question: “I’ve said what I need to say, whether he can let go is up to him. Anyways, why did you not stop me from being alone with him this time?”
Pulling his wife into an embrace, he gently strokes through that silky black hair with grace: “You’re my woman now, no one can steal you away from me!”
The main reason for his hostile behavior towards Chu Yi Feng was because Bai Yan still hasn’t accepted him, but now…. Hoho, she’s already his woman, what more does he need to fret? He’s never allowed anyone to escape his grasp before and he most certainly won’t allow that to happen with his own wife!
“Let’s go, we will first return to the Demon Realm to discuss the plan for attacking the Celestial Realm.” Bai Yan says this with a sweet smile of her own. It’s never a bad idea for a woman to be wanted and she’s no different.
“Mother,” it’s then Bai Xiachen decides to interrupt the couple’s lovey dovey moment, “How’s Godfather?”
Realizing they’re not alone again, Bai Yan hurries to gather herself and looked downward at her boy: “Don’t worry, he will be fine.”
