Chapter 2023 “Woman in White (1)”
“I… hungry.” He said somewhat weakly.
Song couldn’t help but laugh out loud over that confession. Lowering her body down, she gently pats his head to show its alright.
“Finally know you’re hungry? Her Highness the Queen won’t let you eat too much because she’s afraid your stomach cannot bear it. She never mentioned anything about letting you go without food. Hold on, I will take you to find some food.”
Raising her hand to lift the fox up, the girl’s face was all smiles until she shot a glance backward. Song’s still worried about her friend the pipsqueak, but there’s nothing the girl could do aside from making sure the twins are eating well and sleeping well.
……
At this moment, Bai Yan was still floating in the darkness while being able to hear her son and husband’s voices. But no matter how hard the demon queen tried, she just couldn’t open her eyes.
Why?
Why can’t I move? Why can’t I make a sound?
If this continues, I might stay like this forever in this vegetative state.
No!
I can’t!
I need to get out of here. Ling Yan and Jin Tian is still waiting for us at home.
Just when she’s desperately trying to move her body, a voice suddenly echoes into her soul and shocks her. “You’ve come….”
Bai Yan’s heart trembled due to not locating the source. “Who are you?”
Suddenly, a white light shot into existence from the darkness and lit up the darkness in her mind.
It’s a woman wearing a pristinely white dress. She had absolute beauty like Bai Yan herself, but unlike the strong and demanding characteristics of the demon queen, this female had more of a flowing river charm that enticed the opposite sex with her gracefulness.
“Actually, I am you, and you are me…” The woman in white slowly came towards her new incarnation and grinned mischievously, “Before I entered into the cycle of rebirth, I already foresaw my future. I should have three lives before our meeting. From what I can see, you should be my third reincarnation, correct?”
Three rebirths?
Bai Yan narrowed her eyes in skeptically until she saw the resemblance.
“During my travels, I have come across a statue of a woman being worshipped by a group of demonic beasts. Is that you in displayed in that cave and portrait?”
The woman in white chuckles at the question: “Yes and no. I am indeed that woman you saw in those depictions, but not this version you see before yourself. That life didn’t meet my demand in talent or intellect, nor did the second life that came afterward. Then came you…. You see, I foresaw our future and knew what could happen, so I made arrangements…. Ahumph, I’m starting to ramble here. I’ll get to the point. Technically, that is me but also you in all aspects!”
