Chapter 1784 “Bai Ning (2)”

Due to the intense concentration required for the brew, Bai Yan’s senses have mostly closed itself off and shielded herself from the rest of the world. All she knew was the cauldron before herself, the flame, and the timing of when to pull out the elixir.
So, whatever ruckus that’s happening outside in the courtyard, she’s unaware nor had the energy to care.
……
Steaming with a mighty air above the group as they marched, they wasted no time in rushing through the winding corridors for the expected destination.
“What are you all planning to do?” Di Ling Yan had wanted to return to her room then when she encountered this group in the open. She may be small but she’s no timid coward.
“Miss Ling Yan,” Elder Butterfly saw who it was and immediately stepped forward to speak, “did Song happen to come by earlier? Is she looking for your mother for treatment?”
Gently pursing her lips, the pipsqueak grew unhappy at the aggressive air of this bunch: “Are you going to make trouble for my mother?”
Big Sister Song said she didn’t want this matter to be known to anyone, why would they know about this? And the way they marched over here, they’re clearly very upset.
“Ling Yan,” Gu Ya also came out from the rear, her face still showing that elegant smile, “I know your mother wants to be the monarch’s wife, but using Song’s health as a mean to get close to everyone is not right. That girl is innocent and naïve, she doesn’t know the dangers involved with what’s involved. And that woman, using such low trickery is despicable. She doesn’t deserve to be your mother either, you must awaken from the illusion!”
Ling Yan would never allow anyone to insult her mother, not now not ever. Without another word, she pushed Butterfly aside and pounced at the insufferable woman and bit down at that arm.
“Ah!” Gu Ya’s screams resonated with pain due to the sting. She did not expect the pipsqueak to have such speed, much less turning into a mad dog and biting herself on the arm!
“It is you this bad auntie again. First its you coming to make trouble for my mother, then now you’re framing her! My mother is the best woman in the world, and also the one who loves me the most! I won’t allow you to say anything bad about her!” All red in the face, the pipsqueak stubbornly gnaws at that arm while glaring at the crowd. “Today none of you can go bother Big Sister Song.”
Ji Sky’s gaze grew grim due to the child’s stubbornness.
If it were someone else who got in his way then he would’ve rid himself of this problem at first sight. However, this was Di Ling Yan, the girl beloved by Heavenly, their lord and master. Her status was equivalent to the young lady of this house, there’s no way he could hurt her less he’s ready for the aftermath. But at the very thought of Song’s safety, the grandfather’s mood would deteriorate once again with irritation apparent in those eyes.
Trying hard to maintain a gentle voice in his persuasion: “Miss Ling Yan, I know my granddaughter’s illness better than anyone, even if your mother is able to save her, why sneak around without letting anyone know? If there is even a tiny mishap during the treatment, the outcome would be Song’s death! So please, move aside and let us inside!”
Unbending in her determination, the pipsqueak shows off why she’s the daughter of her parents: “I know you are Big Sister’s grandfather, but I want to ask before you go any further: if Big Sister is willing to trust in my mother then why can’t you trust in Big Sister’s decision? Or do you have that little trust in her? Just because you can’t do something doesn’t mean my mother can’t!”
Ji Sky’s face frowned: “Song’s only a child, she still doesn’t know anything yet. Please step aside Miss Ling Yan.”
“I will not let you disturb Mother, and Grandpapa also said I am the little lady of the Monarch manor, if you force your way over me then that’s equivalent to treason! Do all of you really want to test that?”
