Chapter 1188 “Mother and Daughter Reunion (3)”
“Oh right.” Seeing that the two were about to go, Bai Yan hurried to ask for one last key detail, “Where is my son and daughter? I’ll go to them right now.”
“Inside the largest inn of Lucheng City,” Dragon Flame threw out this answer without struggle, “they should be waiting for you there.”
Done with that, the old goat and snake immediately took to the air and hurried over to the indicated location. The pair may not like helping the lady in whatever matter she has gotten herself into, but they knew enough their freedom relied on satisfying the wishes of their newfound mistress, hence their hurried pace.
This is good, Yi Feng should be fine with those two going to help him. It’s time I went to find Xiachen and Dragony…. Bai Yan thought, pulling herself up from the floor and giving one final bittersweet glance before heading for the nearby city.
……
Inside the inn, Bai Xiachen had been holing himself up inside the room with his sister after they decided to stay here. He’s very bored, but also very worried at the same time, which could be seen by the frown and constant sighing from his mouth
“Why didn’t Mother come find me yet?” Pressing his chin against the hand that’s finicking around with the chopstick, he turns to Dragony for some comfort: “What am supposed to do? I miss Mother so much….”
Despite the woes of the boy who did nothing but mope before the many dishes on the table, the young dragoness on the other hand was gobbling up the food with great interest when she looked up. “Gege, you don’t want to eat?”
“I don’t have an appetite if Mother is not around.” Placing the chopstick down after giving that comment, he just stared at the table for no reason before breaking out into another sigh.
“Dragony, why hasn’t she come for us yet? Do you think she has already taken a liking to a new baby and don’t want me anymore?” The boy’s expression dissolves into that of someone suffering some great grievance, that voice pathetic and whiny now.
Then before anyone could reply to the kid’s pointless muttering, his ears pricked up and he slammed the table with his hands while jolting up.
Dragony didn’t expect this and also jerked at the sudden commotion of course. Food in her mouth, she cluelessly inquired for details: “What’s wrong?”
But without giving an answer, Bai Xiachen ignored the wondering eyes of his sister and quickly ran out the door. As soon as he did so was when he saw the familiar red dress that he’s been waiting for.
Likewise, Bai Yan had also noticed the little steambun that’s gazing down at herself from the second floor of this establishment. She didn’t bother to hide her relief and happiness while standing in the main lobby where the rest of the patrons were. Immediately opening up her arms at the boy who had literally threw himself into the air, the lady happily welcomed the warm emotional welcome.
“Mother!” The boy locked onto his mother’s body like glue, refusing to let go in the slightest, “Why did it take you so long to find me Mother? Are you already in favor of another baby and not want me anymore?”
Amused by the silly remark from her son, Bai Yan’s first reaction was to scratch his nose to remove the idea. “Silly, why would your mother I go look for another child when you are so adorable and cute and sensible?”
Only with that comforting phrase did the little steambun release his genuine smile of happiness after being so glum for all these days of wandering. Burying his face into the woman’s chest to seek comfort: “Mother, I missed you so much…. Before I went into the secret domain in order to grow stronger so I couldn’t see you at all, and then it was not easy to get a glimpse of you after you and Baddie Father came to find me. In total I barely got to be with you for more than a few days in the past few months!”
