Chapter 233 “I Only Need to See Her”
A smile escapes the man. To Bai Zhanpeng (sickly man), the girl in front of him was no different from seeing his younger sister again from all those years ago….
However wishful that may be, it cannot be true because his sister was already twenty that year when she disappeared. To say Bai Yan to be his niece was more fitting.
“Bai Yan, I will be staying in the city during this period. If there’s anything you need, do come find us at the Dragon Phoenix Inn. Elder Gu, let us go now.” Giving Bai Yan one last glance, Bai Zhanpeng didn’t look back anymore as he strode towards the exit.
“Young Master, you’re almost fully recovered now. With the medicine in our hands, shouldn’t we first return to the Medicine Sect?” The elder was quick to suggest the idea after they were outside.
Shaking his head before turning around, Bai Zhanpeng was full of emotions when he looked at the old manor: “How can I possibly do that? It’s not easy to come across someone so similar to her, there’s no way I can….”

My heart just can’t bear to leave her, even if the girl only has her looks.
Sighing, the old elder laments the cruelty of reality: “But she is not your sister in the end.”
“I know,” the smile becomes a bittersweet one, “Elder Gu, I only want to watch over her, that’s all…. that’s all….”
I have no other wish, just seeing that face is enough. This way, I can at least fantasize her still being by our side and not like how things have turned out now….
Facing the resolve in his young lord, Elder Gu had no choice but to give in: “Then I will go ahead and write letter back to your father first. We should at least inform him.”
“Very well,” frowning, “But, I don’t want you to tell him about Bai Yan yet.”
“Why?” asked the elder in surprise.
“She has strong talent in alchemy so I don’t anyone to disturb her peace because of me.”
Now it made sense to this Elder Gu. If it becomes known of how talented Bai Yan was, those old relics back at the Medicine Sect will no doubt subjugate the girl to a series of harassment.
“I understand then. Rest assured Young Master, I will not let anyone know about this matter.” Serious in his old face, the elder intends to use the safest possible method this time to transfer the letter back home.
“Let’s go now. I will return home in half a month, until then, we will stay here.” Exhaling a sigh, Bai Zhanpeng understands anything longer than that will raise the suspicion of his father. By then, Bai Yan’s existence will be exposed. That’s not the outcome he wants for anyone. Not for his father, and not for this girl who has the same face as his younger sister.
……
Back inside the old manor.
After her patient had left the premise, Bai Yan originally wanted to return inside to continue her efforts in creating more pills. However, as soon as she turned around, she immediately took notice to her son’s strange behavior of peeking out from behind the tree, “Son, what are you doing?”
This voice greatly startled the little steam bun. Cautiously coming out of hiding, Bai Xiachen appeared to be quite uncomfortable in front of his mother’s presence, “Mother…”
“What’s wrong?” She wrinkled her brow, finding the demeanor of her son very strange.
Biting her fingers, Bai Xiachen’s voice sounded very nervous: “Mother, you must prepare yourself…”
“What happened?” Startled at first, Bai Yan continues to ask.
“Just now… Sister Yi Yi and Auntie Xiaoyun went out to make trouble. I suspect there will be a lot of people coming over to find you in a bit.”
This time the list brought out by Lan Xiaoyun had contained basically the names of every noble lady in the royal capital, married or unmarried. If they really did get even with everyone, it’s a given the whole city will be in an uproar.
Although, Bai Xiachen also believes that there was nothing wrong with their practice, but…..
