“And…” Bai Yan narrows her eyes onto the man, “I am very grateful to you for saving my son, and I am also thankful for you saving me back in the Holy Domain. I owe you a lot and I will never forget your kindness in this life….. However, Di Cang’s status within my heart is irreplaceable. I won’t allow anyone to say something bad about my husband!”
Chu Yi God may not be openly hostile towards Di Cang, but the underlying meaning of his words didn’t escape Bai Yan’s ear. If there’s no ill intent then they could still be friend, but vice versa…. If for her husband’s sake, she won’t mind distancing herself from this mysterious man!
Clenching the hands behind his back, that warning from the lady definitely hit a sore spot: “You’re overthinking the matter. I’ve come to tell you because I wish to, you don’t owe me anything. If anything, its I who owes you.”
If anything, its I who owes you…..
Bai Yan’s heart stung over those words. For some reason she got this strange sensation that someone had said that to herself before.
Suddenly, the handsome face of Chu Yi Feng returns to her mind, causing a loud bang in her head like it’s about to explode.
That’s right, Chu Yi Feng also mentioned something similar like that in the past where he probably owes her for a past life’s debt.
But what does this man have to do with Yi Feng?
Clenching her fist at all the unknown hovering over this issue: “I’ve told you before that I have a friend with a face exactly like yours. I’m going to ask again, do you and him share some sort of relationship?”
The man didn’t answer right away, only staring at her like he’s trying to gauge something.
“I’m sorry, I’m… I’m afraid there’s nothing I can say.”
Pressing forward by stepping into his personal space, there was no way Bai Yan would let this go so easily: “What do you mean by that. Are you implying he is indeed related to you?”
“You will find out eventually, but not now.” That said, the tenseness in Chu Yi God’s clenched fist began to loosen, “And, I suggest you hurry and go find a celestial fox. The sooner the better.”
“Why so?” Narrowing up her eyes, Bai Yan didn’t understand why the urgency, especially when she’s still heavily pregnant. At the very least she should go after going through labor to reduce the risk.
“Because the celestial fox will only appear when a fox is born. The baby in your stomach is not a normal one so it will undoubtedly lure one to your side.”
Now this has left the poor woman in a bind. She knows that if Di Cang finds out then he would never allow her to go out during her pregnant state. In fact, Bai Yan has no doubt her husband would tie her up if he must just to keep her at home.
“Also, you should bring your son along for the trip if possible. A celestial fox’s blood is best used when its fresh, that’s when it has the greatest effect. Furthermore, that specie of the fox kind hated man the most, they won’t show themselves if they smell the scent. As for Bai Xiachen…. He’s only a kid, his presence shouldn’t matter.”
Having said this, Chu Yi God then met the woman’s eye with his own before handing over an item: “I’ve said everything I need to say. Take this, it’s a jade card that can call for me. If the Celestial Palace ever comes to make trouble for you, go ahead and snap the card in half. I will come at my fastest speed.”
Startled by the offer, Bai Yan first glanced at the man, then down to the card in her hands. She’s troubled by the idea of relying on this person who she barely knew. But right when she wanted to return the item to its owner, Chu Yi God was already gone, nowhere to be seen in front of herself…
