Chapter 1711 “Won’t Give Up (2)”
If State Teacher must leave then I will at least let him leave with reassurance. Even if it hurts to no end, I won’t show it to anyone. But… I will never be able to accommodate anyone else in my heart ever again.
“Auntie…?”
Di Ling Yan the peachy baby girl and Di Jin Tian the little glutton had also come up from the back, their appearance that of some well-behaved children.
“Auntie,” Jin Tian appears confused by the scene since he’s never experienced death yet so he didn’t know what to make of this, “Why is the big brother over there sleeping on the ground? Won’t he be cold? Should we take him back home to sleep?”
Di Ling Yan the twin sister may be the same age but she’s not new to the concept of death. Upon hearing her brother’s careless remark, she instinctively reached over to pinch the little glutton’s hand, which only made the boy show an aggrieved face as he bit his thumb.
“That’s right,” Di Xiao Wan didn’t get angry at the uncomfortable comment, rather she only smiled and began caressing the cold face of her lost husband, “your uncle is sleeping, he’s tired. From now on it will be me watching over him…”
Bai Yan’s been holding her goddaughter Dragony the entire time so she wasn’t in a position to run over and hug the sorrowful princess, but her heart ached just as much regardless. Taking in a deep breath to gather herself in order to not sound so sad as well, she reaches out with her free hand to touch that shoulder to apologize: “I’m sorry Xiao Wan, I came back too late….”
Going stiff for a split second, the princess almost wanted to shout when she realized the outburst would only hurt the only family she has. Shaking that head: “No, don’t say that, this is not your fault Sister-in-law. Those people who attacked us are very powerful. Even if you and Brother came back, it might’ve turned out even worse.”
Her only blessing now was that Bai Yan and Di Cang didn’t remain in the Demon Realm, that way she wouldn’t need to lose more relatives.
“Listen to me Xiao Wan,” the demon queen’s expression gets serious, “as long as State Teacher’s soul isn’t destroyed then he isn’t truly dead. Am I not walking around just fine before you? If your brother was able to bring me back on the verge of annihilation then State Teacher will one day return too.”
The princess naturally knows what the lady was referring to. As her mouth moved to say something, only silence came of her actions in the end.
“I want to ask you this one question Xiao Wan: are you willing to wait twenty years for him?” Bai Yan asks in earnest.
Lowering her head at the idea: “I have never left State Teacher for that long. Sister-in-law, I am really afraid, I am so used to having him by my side, without him… what am I going to do on my own?” Showing a bittersweet smile, the princess looked so sad and pitiful, “Xiaoyun (Bai Yan’s female cousin) is right, I should’ve married him when I had the chance. Now it’s too late for regrets.”
Upon reaching the end of her sentence, Di Xiao Wan’s eyes once again reverted back to a hollow and dull look like her soul just got spirited away. This greatly pained the demon queen who stood at the side; after all, they’re family, how could family not be hurt when one’s in pain?
“Xiao Wan, if State Teacher reincarnates and becomes a new person, someone that isn’t as handsome or good tempered, will you still like him?”
Without hesitation, the dull looking princess nodded her head without looking at anyone specific: “I like State Teacher because it is him, not because he’s handsome or good tempered. I will love him no matter what he becomes.”
