Capítulo 844: Chapter 773
Bai Zhi settled outside with Xiao Jiu, patiently making medicine for her.
“Sister, your smile is very beautiful.”
Xiao Jiu looked at Bai Zhi, saying this with great happiness.
“Xiao Jiu is also very beautiful.”
Bai Zhi looked at Xiao Jiu. Although Xiao Jiu still couldn’t transform, she was truly beautiful.
“There must be many people who like you, sister.” The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝘯𝘦𝘵
Xiao Jiu obediently lay beside Bai Zhi, watching her make medicine.
“Then you are mistaken. Many people do not like me.”
Bai Zhi focused on the medicine as she stirred it continuously with a wooden stick.
In truth, not many people really liked her.
At first, Bai Zhi felt really lucky to have returned. She could start a new life, as she had lost her memory back then.
She thought the original owner was pitiful, disliked by a heartless father, plotted against by two brothers, and ignored by a mother.
From a detached perspective, she saw many things clearly and steadily made her way to today.
Many people disliked her, truly.
Whether it was Nan Xi, Bai Yu, Ye Xiu, or Bai Da.
Those people seemed to have drifted far, far away from her.
She barely remembered them. It had only been a few years, but it seemed like ages had passed, and she no longer cared.
Now, looking back on that time, she could surprisingly reflect calmly on what had truly happened.
At first, she thought it was just entering a book world, realizing that being the protagonist was miserable, but then it became more and more fantastical, with demons and such appearing.
Even Bai Zhi herself sometimes found it too shocking and unbelievable.
But reaching this point, she had no choice but to believe, right?
As for those who liked her, truthfully, there weren’t any.
Perhaps only Moh Li, while the others were just family.
She was quite content, knowing clearly that no matter what happened, this person would not leave and would always be by her side.
“How could that be? Sister is so good.” Xiao Jiu found it unbelievable, how could it be.
“Really. Sister wouldn’t lie to you. Today is the fifteenth, and they say the moon is fullest on the sixteenth. How about I make mooncakes for you?”
Bai Zhi wanted to see, planning to make mooncakes, as Bai Wei had prepared many things. Including food…
“What are mooncakes?” Xiao Jiu was very curious about what mooncakes were.
She had been in that Ice Cave since birth and had never seen anything else. Only ice, always ice.
Her mother would often come to see her, bringing her lots of food, hoping she would eat more.
But she wanted to go out and play.
She wanted to leave the Ice Cave.
But she knew she couldn’t. Her mother said that if she left, she would die.
She would no longer see her mother, and she didn’t want that. She wanted to see her mother.
“It’s something eaten on the fifteenth of August, though you can eat it other times too.”
Bai Zhi made two plates, having Bai Xiang bring one plate back home, and also made a lot of dishes.
It was Xiao Jiu’s first time seeing something so edible; she had only ever eaten Spiritual Dew before.
Moh Li returned quickly, and this time he didn’t encounter the Demon King, nor did he see Bai Wei.
They ate together, just about to watch the moon, when they suddenly noticed the Barrier outside starting to stir.
Bai Zhi even saw Xiao Jiu curl up into a ball, her body was undergoing changes.
Bai Zhi looked toward the Barrier, where there seemed to be a red line trying to penetrate it. The small Bell in Bai Zhi’s hand began to heat up.
Bai Zhi frowned and threw it on the ground as the heat became unbearable.
That red line wanted even more to come in.
And the Bell surprisingly extended a red line, aiming at Xiao Jiu.
Bai Zhi immediately picked up the Bell, sealing it. Without the Bell, the red line outside seemed to suddenly lose its direction.
Xiao Jiu’s body returned to normal, and she quickly held her in her arms.
