Lide grabbed Bai Huang's wrist, and led her swaggeringly into the city that never sleeps in the eyes of everyone who was either surprised, fearful, or full of envy.
To be reasonable, Li De, the lord of Yunyang, has always kept a low profile because he is very clear about Yunyang's position in all the territories. So when he faced the Lord of Lingwu and the West Qin and Nanchu, he chose to give face to the other party first, but this did not mean that any small character was qualified to speak nonsense in front of him. Not to mention asking for Bai Qiu's arm today, even if he chopped off Bai Qiu's head, the incident would definitely end with an apology from Lord Yunhai.
As long as Lord Yunhai doesn't want to fight Yunyang at this point in time, this kind of face slap is nothing at all. Who in the world hasn't been slapped in the face? The lord of Southern Chu owns the second largest territory in the world, so he was robbed of his wife back then.
What's more, Bai Qiu was not a favored child in the first place, his life is really nothing.
Bai Qiu's guards really didn't want to let him go, but on the one hand, his young master was lying half dead on the ground with a broken arm; People dare not act rashly. The outsider Heji finally disconnected and reconnected, holding a sharp knife to drive back the melon-eating crowd blocking the road.
After entering the city that never sleeps, Baihuang didn't break free from Lide's hand, but said angrily:
"Thank you. Hmph, if it wasn't for that eggless guy who secretly brought so many people, my aunt would definitely beat him into a pig's head. From now on, don't let my aunt see him in the city that never sleeps, otherwise my aunt will beat him every time she sees him."
Lead walked on the bustling street holding Bai Huang's wrist, and said with a smile:
"How are you going to beat him? If there are people around him all the time, what can you do?"
Bai Huang straightened her chest and replied proudly:
"Of course my aunt called more people. The person who got into a carriage and put him in a sack on a dark and windy night was a brutal beating until his mother didn't know him. He was The bullying aunt just returned to Yunhai and didn't have time to call for someone, so when she turns back, aunt will take you to ambush him, his guards don't need to guard against him, he's dead."
Bai Huang's mood soon improved.
When returning to the sea of clouds this time, Bai Huang also had some plans in mind.
She wanted to go back to the Lord's Mansion first to meet her father, Lord Yunhai. She didn't know what her father's attitude was towards the dispute between the sons, but she planned to try her best to persuade her father to make a clean decision. For example, directly establishing Baifeng as the son of Yunhai, fundamentally cut off her elder brother Bai Ye's idea of competing for the position of son.
Bai Huang herself knew very well that although her two elder brothers doted on her very much, when it came to such an important matter, she still seemed to be indifferent. If he could win the support of the Lord of the Sea of Clouds, the situation would immediately change.
Li De also showed a smile as he looked at Bai Huang who was humming a ditty.
A somewhat pitiful smile.
This silly girl often thinks things are simple, people are kind, and the storm outside is not to be feared.
Soon, Baihuang faced another setback.
The guards of the lord's mansion would not let her in.
No matter how Bai Huang revealed his identity, the guards at the door all had a cold face and said to Bai Huang:
"Master doesn't want to see you, please go back."
Bai Huang poked her waist and asked angrily:
"Why?"
The guard glanced at Lide at the side, and said with some embarrassment:
"Miss, we are just servants. It is the master's decision that the master does not want to see you, and we have no way to interfere."
Bai Huang sniffed, lowered his voice and said:
"How could he not see me...someone must have deceived him! Who is it? Who is in charge of the lord's mansion now? If I can't see my father, someone must come and tell me the reason. Or do you mean that you don't want to recognize me? Ma’am, I’m not welcome home?”
The guard looked embarrassed, his eyes turned back and forth between Li De and Bai Huang.
After a while, he sighed and said to Bai Huang:
"Well, what does Miss want to do when she comes back this time? I can help you convey it to the master."
Just as Bai Huang was about to speak, Li De had already stepped forward and said to the guard with a smile:
"Please tell Lord Yunhai that Baihuang and I are here to get married. The child in her belly is almost two months old, and she is going to conceive soon. The wedding must be held as soon as possible."
Bai Huang's entire face turned red with a bang, and steam visible to the naked eye emerged from the overheated head. The guards were also dumbfounded, they had never seen this scene before, they looked at each other in blank dismay, and none of them dared to respond for a long time. Looking at Li De holding Bai Huang's wrist, no one can say anything for a while. The news of Bai Qiu's arm being chopped off has already spread here one step ahead of time. Find a reason to kill them too.
After a while, the guard at the front raised his chin, which was about to fall to the ground, and asked with difficulty:
"Is... really, miss?"
Bai Huang patted her chubby belly that was eating today, and said proudly:
"That's right, my aunt is pregnant with eight children, so hurry up and tell my father to come out and get her."
The guards had black question marks all over their faces, and finally someone opened the door and went in, probably to ask the higher-ups what they mean.
Not long after, the guard who entered the lord's mansion came out, wiped his sweat and said:
"Master, please..."
Bai Huang cast a smug look at Li De, and ran in hastily.
Lid sighed softly, then looked at Alaya with a guilty conscience, and found that Alaya's expression was very flat, and there was nothing unusual at all. It's normal to think about it carefully, she has even seen Li De's "authentic" daughter Chocolate, and her ability to resist attacks has been improved, so naturally she doesn't pay much attention to the imaginary child in Bai Huang's stomach.
Lied, Alayah and Heggie also followed.
Looking at the familiar scenery in front of him, Bai Huang felt much lighter in an instant. This is where she grew up, and here are the people she loves the most. During the time when she didn't go to Yuxi City and didn't meet Lide, this place brought her countless happiness. She was very familiar with every plant and tree here, including the dog that ran towards her, including the dog that was in front of her. She can name the squirrels poking around in the trees.
Bai Huang ran all the way through the gate, across the promenade, across the atrium, and into the backyard.
Then, she opened her eyes wide and froze there.
The wind blew up her clothes and the withered grass.
In the yard, a kind man was smiling at her.
The old father who loved her infinitely, the owner of the entire sea of clouds, now has shriveled skin like a thin old man. He was sitting on a rocking chair, covered with a thick quilt, basking in the sun with a smile. That head of black hair turned gray and gray at some point, and the aura of looking down on all living beings has disappeared from his body.
Li De, who followed Bai Huang's footsteps, also saw this scene.
With just one glance, Li De knew very well the reason why the Lord of the Sea of Clouds became like this.
His blood cold is indeed terminally ill, and there is no cure for it.
Bai Huang's tears welled up in an instant.
The Lord of the Sea of Clouds reluctantly sat up from the recliner, stretched out his hand, and asked with a smile:
"Are you back? Hehe, I haven't seen you for so long, my precious daughter is already a big girl...!"
