“Daughter!” Scared to the point of turning pale, Wang Deyi could barely keep his legs straight as he struggled to keep that fear contained….
“Wahh!”
Following the dissipation of the blasted smoke, what appeared at the epicentre was a girl with hair all dishevelled and tangled up like she just faced an explosion.
Finally coming back to his sense at this scene, Wang Deyi promptly ran over to his daughter’s side and began checking her all over for injuries.
“Qing’er is only a child. What wrong did she do to deserve such treatment from you?” He cries out to the sky, questioning the one responsible.
“But I am also a child,” blinking his big innocent eyes, Bai Xiachen raises a huge smile at the question.
That’s exactly right. Even if Wang Qing’er was a child, she’s still several years older than the boy.
“Father!” First shooting a hateful glare at the kid, Wang Deyi then swiftly turned to his old man behind himself: “We are at the very least the Misty Fairy House’s gatekeeper, how can you tolerate others bullying your granddaughter?”
In response, Wang Yufan only frowned, not uttering a single word.
“This is all caused by yourself, who told you to mess with Bai Xiachen?” Sneering from the side, Wang Deqiu takes this opening to ridicule his third brother.
“That’s only because he tried to seduce my daughter. Now that he’s seeing I won’t agree, he’s trying to push the blame onto us and ruin my Qing’er!” Trembling all over from anger, the scoundrel simply doesn’t relent in his shameless ways, “Such self-righteous people is not qualified for us. I will never agree to leting such a person into our Wang House.”
In reality, despite that strong stance and appearance, Wang Deyi was actually at his wits end: his daughter was crying her hearts out, he himself losing the favor of Elder Zeng, he’s got nothing out of this aside from trouble and disgrace.
Meanwhile back over in the air, Bai Yan was busy smoothing out her son’s hair when she spoke again: “Are you still angry my son? If you are then we can have the big guy here spray a couple more of his flames, how about it?”
Acting in accordance to that question, the Glass Dragon immediately issues out a timely roar to rock the ground and air, thus causing the scoundrel back on the ground to subconsciously push the girl away from himself and causing his daughter to take another fall….
“Qing’er, how are you? Father here didn’t mean to toss you away.” Though he says that, the action earlier definitely said otherwise and everyone knew it.
That’s right, I really didn’t mean to, it’s just that the dragon up there is too scary….
But excuses are excuses, Wang Deqiu only wanted to spit at his third brother in contempt because he knew better than anyone here, What father and daughter bond? If he had wanted to save Qing’er earlier then he could’ve done so on the first blast. There was ample time for him to move when the fireball came flying down yet he stayed and watched on till the smoke was completely gone.
Understanding what her neighbor was thinking, Bai Yan only had this to say to the second son of the Wang House: “If I cripple your brother there, would you feel bad about it?”
Puckering his lip to the side like his chubby son, Wang Deqiu truly was a troublemaker in and out: “We’re not born of the same mother anyways. Besides, he often beats my son when I’m not looking so you don’t have to worry about me.”
“Miss Bai Yan,” the old grandfather finally steps in, “This idiot did commit a huge mistake, there’s no denying that. But out of consideration for my old age, would you let me dispose of him using the family rules instead, please….”
No matter what, he’s still my son even if he does so many foolish things….
