If my guess is correct, Yi Yi’s strength being ruined is mostly related to this matter. I need to find out the full story, I can’t let this slide. Bai Yan thought, her mind made up to get to the bottom of this.
“I really didn’t steal anything, I only wanted to get Sister Bai Yan’s necklace back. You can take anything else, but give that back to me.” After a brief silence, Bai Yi Yi blurts this out in her panic.
That brought back a wave of old memories for Bai Yan upon hearing that. Indeed, she did leave behind a necklace for Yi Yi prior to her departure. It’s something she inherited from her mother Bai Yu and thought of the item as important for reasons unknown even to herself. However, due to what she was throwing herself into, a long arduous journey of training and growth, Bai Yan figured its best to leave the necklace behind in case she herself faced some kind of misfortune. At that time, the trinket would be a good memorial item for Yi Yi and their time together.
So that’s why Yi Yi lost her abilities, this they framed her for being a thief and then abolished her strength?
Tightening her hands into a ball, a gush of anger erupted within Bai Yan’s heart.
Due to how immersed Wen Fei Fei was at her verbal attack, the lass didn’t realize there’s a second person around and continued to sneer in contempt: “That is my stepmother’s things so of course I have to take care of it in my stepsister’s place.
You are an outsider, how dare you claim to be the owner and try to steal it away? I’ll teach you what it means to be a thief today!” By then her hand had already been raised and rearing to slap down at the other girl.
In the heat of the moment, Bai Yi Yi simply stood there as she flinched at the encroaching slap. She’s too nervous and afraid to the point where she’s unable to react. Yet the expected pain never came…. Opening her eyes, she saw something so unexpected that her mouth dropped in surprise.
Wen Fei Fei had flown back out like a bullet, smashing into the redwood table inside the manor. As a result of this impact, the furniture had shattered into four fragments.
How? Wen Fei Fei isn’t an average person, she’s a real martial artist! And I heard her strength have grown tremendously in recent times, how did Sister Bai Yan beat her in a flash?
“Fei Fei!” Chai Moon exclaims in great fright. Hurrying to her daughter’s side, this woman frantically helps the girl up as the tears came rolling down after confirming the severity of this fall. Turning to Bai Yan, she protests loudly for all to hear: “Miss, aren’t you overdoing things? My Fei Fei only said the truth yet you openly attacked her in such a fashion. This is our family’s business so you have no right to interfere.”
After saying this, Chai Moon turned to her own husband for support, showering the place with her raining tears to win the man over. “Brother Shan, I can tolerate anything you wish of me, I will endure that because I’m your wife. Who told me to fall in love with you first? Loving someone is not wrong, there is no first or last in the matter, but Fei Fei is innocent. She is your own daughter too so how can you bear to see her being hurt by someone else?”
Wen Shan’s eyes cold a little colder at the reminder. Turning over to the one responsible: “Miss, how do you want to compensate us for hurting my daughter?”
Bai Yan merely smirked in reply, not saying a word to this stranger in front of herself.
After all these years, the once loving and caring father of Earth she knew had long died in those memories of old. The only emotion she has now of this man was anger, a very strange and enlightening anger.
“Then I like to ask you Wen Shan, how are you going to compensate us for treating Yi Yi like this?”
