Chapter 475 “The Imminent Start of the Convention (2)”
Daughter? Bai Zhanpeng’s expression froze in startlement, I don’t even have a wife, where am I supposed to get a daughter from? But… if I did have a daughter who is as good as Bai Yan then of course I would protect her like the treasure in my palm. How could I allow her to be bullied?
“Xiachen, why are you asking this question? Of course I wouldn’t let my daughter be bullied.”
Deflating his head, the boy issues out a sigh of disappointment. It’s true I like Grandpa Zhanpeng a lot, but there will come a day where he will hate me….
“What’s wrong?” Furrowing his brow, the man rubs the little steambun’s hair as he asks for more detail, “What happened?”
“Xiachen?” Truly befuddled now over that remark, the man only had question marks hovering over his head at this point.
“Grandpa Zhanpeng, thank you for being willing to find my mother’s loved ones. But it’s getting late and I must go find her. Goodbye Grandpa Zhanpeng.” Waving his hand in haste to bid his farewell, the boy didn’t leave any room for the man to stop before dashing off into the distance.
“What is this little guy talking about? How come I can’t understand a single word of it?” Scratching his head in befuddlement, Bai Zhanpeng then exclaimed out oi realization: “Oh crap, I forgot to bring Xiachen to see Father. If he learns of what I did then I won’t be spared….”

But before the man’s words and woes could further continue, Elder Gu have already arrived on scene from the front. This faithful follower who was also present back could never have imagined the woman whom they encountered by pure chance to be the daughter of the young miss.
“Milord, do you need me to bring Miss Bai Yan and her son here?”
Bai Zhanpeng murmurs for a while: “Is the alchemy convention about to begin?”
“Yes.”
“Then she must be here to attend the convention so I can’t bother her at this time. No matter, something as big as recognizing our relationship isn’t a rushed matter.”
“Then….”
“Wait until I get the evidence to prove Bai Yan is my niece first. When I do, I want the world to know how noble she is with my announcement!” Cocking his face high, the man reveals a proud smile at the impending future.
I will make all those who dare to despise her, mock her, abandoned her, regret their deeds forever in this lifetime!
“Milord,” murmuring in hesitation, Elder Gu appears troubled by what he’s about to say. “There’s something I must inform you. I’ve just became aware of something regarding Ye Ying’s action today. They say she’s doing things as outlandish as stealing another’s husband. Not only that, she wouldn’t even let the child go. If not for the little fella being clever and exposing Ye Ying’s true face in front of the public today, I fear…. I fear who knows what of indecent act the girl would’ve committed.”
Clever little guy?
Bai Zhanpeng became stunned. Suddenly, all the things his nephew said came rushing over and stuck inside his head. “The little guy you mentioned, how old is he?”
“From what they are saying, it should be around the same age as young Xiachen. I know what you are implying milord, but this should be impossible. Its said that Miss Ye Ying is trying to steal the husband, son, and even the woman’s younger brother! There’s no way that’s possible when Miss Bai Yan’s brother is still in the kingdom of Liu Huo….”

When he asked about a daughter the most likely response would’ve been, exactly what was inner monologued. The author does this alot. We get the response that we think would be answered but the characters don’t get it because it’s being inner monologued not voiced. Idk if I should call this smart or a cheap trick to create misunderstandings and drama or maybe, both. Lol. Idk if I like it or not. I definitely don’t like the amount it’s used though, as I’m not a fan of misunderstandings to lead a plots drama. Thx 4 the update:)
