“You bad woman, don’t bully my mother and grandmother, if you dare continue then I’m going to have Dragony eat you!” In saying this, the little steambun allowed his ferocious side to come through.
What did he just say? Did he just call me Grandmother instead of Pretty Granny? Bai Ning had fallen into a daze upon hearing that outburst, her eyes in dismay over the angry appearance of the boy.
“What did you say?!” Ning Yu hatefully reached out with both hands in a vain attempt to tear apart the cute little guy. However, before she could even draw close though, Dragon Flame’s figure had already jumped in-between her and the kid.
Sensing the incredible and menacing aura coming off of this old fella, Ning Yu instinctively cowered backwards in a panic. She knows full well trying to do anything in front of this opponent was a futile effort so she could do nothing but glare at the boy and his mother in question.
Ignoring the raging hate coming her way, Bai Yan acts like she didn’t notice at all and ruffled her boy’s hair as she spoke: “Xiachen, didn’t I tell you to wait for me in the room, why did you come out?”
Losing that murderous look from his face over that kind voice, Bai Xiachen immediately dons a wronged child appearance as he hung his head low: “I’m sorry Mother, I had wanted to endure the insults coming out of that bad woman’s mouth, but I lost it when she started to call you a heartless wolf. She’s clearly the heartless wolf here.”
Bai Ning’s head exploded, leaving her brain a blank slate.
Xiachen claims Ning Yu called Yan’er a heartless wolf? But she was clearly calling my daughter that, how does it relate to Bai Yan?
The lady was in no way a dumb person, she’s perfectly capable of connecting the dots after being given all the hints. It’s just that…. Well, when one has been disappointed for so many years, it’s normal for them to be fearful of making a misunderstanding and being hurt again.
On the contrary, those words were causing waves in the petite girl’s mind as sweat poured out and resentment hovered in those eyes.
It’s just like Pa says, this slut is Auntie Ning’s biological daughter! How dare she come now? It has always been me and Pa accompanying her, how dare this heartless wolf come steal the fruits of our labor?!
“Mother,” turning to the side to make eye contact, Bai Yan wants to make sure there’s no consequences for what she’s about to do, “will you be distressed if I move against her?”
Startled at first over that question, Bai Ning took a good moment to think on the matter before responding: “This is what she brought on herself, I won’t complain to anyone if you do.”
She has already given her a chance, it’s Ning Yu who didn’t cherish the opportunity and instead did something irreparable.
“Auntie Ning!” Ning Yu felt truly scared now. In her panic, she ran to kneel before the lady, “Please, I know I’m wrong, please forgive me this one time out of consideration for all the years we’ve been together!”
Shaking her head despite all the tears and cries for mercy, “I have warned you, but you didn’t listen. In that case, why should I continue to forgive you?”
Call her heartless or cruel, she doesn’t care, she simply doesn’t want any harm to come to Bai Yan, that’s all. Even if the perpetrator was someone like Ning Yu, Bai Ning won’t intervene….
