Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Chapter 847



Chapter 847 Her Mother’s Old Friend

“Is she dead?” the Divine Witch asked.

With the cold look on her delicate and demure face gone, she lost all her composure and peace.

She opened her liquid eyes wide, failing to suppress the shock and grief in her eyes.

Lin Mengya dropped her aggressive air. The expression of the Divine Witch was revealing.

Lin Mengya said, “She isn’t. Nevertheless, she will certainly be heart-broken if she learns she was discarded by her mother for no reason. I don’t know why you sent her away after giving birth to her, but only know that every mother loves her children. Even if a mother seems to have no maternal love for her child, she must have her difficulties. Am I right?”

Although the Divine Witch was keenly aware that she had been tricked by the girl in front of her, she suddenly seemed to be relieved instead of getting angry.

When she looked up again, she no longer looked like a statue with her cold look gone.

Her face was filled with exhaustion, but she seemed to be relieved all of a sudden.

She said, “You are right. Every mother loves her children. But if the child was close to death after being born, the mother could only harden her heart to send the child away for the sake of the child despite her reluctance to part with the child.”

Things went better than Lin Mengya expected.

She had thought the Divine Witch would try hard to deny it. Unexpectedly, she tricked the Divine Witch into telling the truth in a few words.

She said, “Baizhi is safe in my place. Rest assured. She has grown well into a pretty, lively and kind girl. All the members of my family like her very much.”

At the mention of Baizhi, the weak girl who had been her companion since their childhoods and even sheltered her from quite a few troubles, she felt tenderness towards a biological sister.

Her brother doted on her, and Lin Mengwu was her half-sister.

However, in her life, she could never forget the warmth given by Baizhi who had accompanied her when the two of them were weak.

As such, when she became capable of taking care of Baizhi, her first thought was to take Baizhi to her place, and give her a new name and a carefree future.

“Her name is Baizhi, right? It’s a wonderful name. Sure enough, your mother didn’t lie to me. Please express my gratitude to her for raising my daughter,” the Divine Witch said.

Her mother? Lin Mengya was stunned.

Why did the Divine Witch know her mother?

“You know my mother is…” Lin Mengya asked.

“Zuo Shuqing, the Eldest Princess of the Nation of Lintian, the wife of Marquis Zhennan of the Jin State. She is your mother as well as a person who did me a big favor,” the Divine Witch said.

Lin Mengya was shocked when she heard the Divine Witch say her mother’s identity accurately in a soft voice.

But fortunately, she, who had gotten the shocking news from her uncle, soon returned to herself despite her incomparable astonishment.

“You met my mother before?” she asked, a little excited.

To be honest, since she found that her mother was an extremely mysterious person, she had wanted to find out about her mother’s past all this time.

The words of those who were acquainted with her mother were like fragments pieced together to create an image of her mother that even her father had never seen.

But Lin Mengya was delighted to see it and totally fascinated by it.

Her mother had gone through all kinds of hardships to bring her and her brother to this world and used her wisdom to shelter her from the real danger.

Unknowingly, she seemed to have followed her mother’s traces and taken a look into her mother’s past.

“I have no idea whether my child looks like me or not, but you do look so much like your mother. When I first met your mother, we were both teenagers. Unexpectedly, things have remained the same after all this time, but your mother has gone,” the Divine Witch said.

From the moment she laid her eyes on this girl, it caused unimaginable turbulence in her heart.

She met Lin Mengya’s mother, who was a delicate and elegant girl back then, for the first time on an evening.

At that time, she, who had just inherited the position of the Divine Witch, was still slightly unaccustomed to the new environment.

After the noisy daytime, the loneliness and coldness during the night inevitably eroded her heart like a poison that seeped into her bones.

But that day she met a girl who had bright eyes and a warm smile.

The girl was several years older than her. Taking only a glance at the girl’s smile, she felt her unease eased.

The girl came to visit her almost every day in the next few days, either bringing her some food from outside or telling her some interesting stories.

If the girl had not encouraged her to sneak out together, she would not have met the man…

Although it was just a moment of pleasure, she relished the taste of love.

She would never regret it even at the cost of her life.

She had thought that she would never get the news of her child in this life.

She had stopped thinking about her child until the appearance of this girl, who looked exactly like the girl she had met, gave her new hope.

Fortunately, fate was not that cruel to her.

“Exactly what sort of person is my mother?” Lin Mengya, who had been puzzled by this question all this time, asked.

As she knew about her mother’s past, she was increasingly aware that her mother, whom her father always kept in mind and even someone like the Divine Witch considered as an intimate friend, was practically perfect.

But she was more aware that no one was perfect.

Thus, she couldn’t help but investigate into and explore her mother’s past in order to complete her mother’s image in her heart.

By now, the image seemed to be increasingly clear, but more importantly, it became increasingly vivid.

“Your mother was smart and kind, while so stubborn that she insisted on completing anything she believed at all costs. She had suffered a lot because of her stubbornness, but she was unwilling to change. I think you have no idea that your mother fell for your father first. However, back then, your father was reserved and refused to accept your mother’s love, so she came to the Lieyun Empire in a fit of anger. Later, we kept in touch through letters. I know you have a brother, Nansheng. I remember that her last letter said that she was going to have a daughter. She was overjoyed and begged me to pray to the King of Various Venomous Insects and the Witch Empress for granting you a peaceful life,” the Divine Witch said with a gentle look.

Youth was always unforgettable. Moreover, she, who had spent the first half of her life living in seclusion, considered the few years as her only merry time.

“I didn’t expect my mother to be so tough. After giving birth to Baizhi, you sent someone to take her to my home, didn’t you?” Lin Mengya asked.

After glancing at Lin Mengya hesitantly, the Divine Witch finally nodded softly and subconsciously touched her thighs with her hands on her knees.

She slightly furrowed her delicate eyebrows and said in slight distress, “It’s my fault for giving birth to her despite my incapability of giving her a family. Although your mother had passed away at that time, I had no friends other than her to entrust with my child. I trusted your father, so I begged someone to take my child to your home.”

Fate was indescribably marvelous.

Her mother and the Divine Witch, the old generation, were intimate friends.

She and Baizhi, the young generation, were as close as sisters.

There was no story without coincidences. Perhaps the two families were destined to have a close relationship.

“Reverend ma’am, you don’t have to blame yourself. Baizhi is very gentle and considerate and she will definitely understand your good intention. Besides, I certainly won’t tell her about this without your permission. Rest assured,” Lin Mengya said softly with a smile.

Others might be able to accept this, but Baizhi was the simplest.

She must make sure this would not cause any harm to Baizhi before she told Baizhi about this.

But now, it was obviously not the best time.

Hearing that Lin Mengya would respect her opinion, the Divine Witch, weighed down with worry, felt relieved.

She cast a grateful glance at Lin Mengya, because Lin Mengya brought the news of her child, and more importantly, Lin Mengya did not tell her child about this without her permission.

Both she and her child were not ready to accept the fact yet, so maintaining the status quo was the best choice.

“Thank you very much. If you come here just to bring me the news of my child, I will be very grateful to you. But if you have something else to tell me, please get straight to the point. But I have to make it clear that although you have done me a favor, I will never reveal some secrets,” the Divine Witch said.

She was smart. Although she had admitted her relationship with Baizhi to Lin Mengya, she did not completely forget her responsibilities.

After straightening out her thinking and organizing her words, Lin Mengya said seriously, “If I did not miss my guess, you’re supposed to come from a mysterious underground place, aren’t you? Or I should say that you Divine Witches have always lived underground. Although you occasionally come out to get some fresh air, your hometown should be located in an underground city, right?”

Hearing Lin Mengya point out her biggest secret, the Divine Witch was obviously taken aback at the moment and stared at Lin Mengya without blinking.

Obviously, she didn’t expect that this secret unknown to all people would be discovered by this girl.

Seeing the Divine Witch’s reaction, Lin Mengya was sure of her guess.

In fact, from the moment she entered the Divine Witch Shrine, she noticed that it was characterized by windows made for ventilation rather than lighting.

Moreover, there were numerous lampstands here. The design was not only ingenious, but also capable of making the most of the candlelight.

From the moment she entered the hall until now, she was surrounded by candles that lit the hall brightly.

However, she obviously smelled various medicinal materials and incense that were not smoky instead of the smoky smell produced by burning candles.

She looked around, but did not find any censer or cauldron in the hall.

In this case, the smell could only be produced by those burning candles.

The design, good for ventilation, not only prevented the wind from blowing the candles, but also offered some fresh air.

Such an ingenious building definitely couldn’t be built in a short time.
