Chapter 551- The Abbess Was Contracted; The Incident at City Yan (5)
Old Man Ying’s eyes went straight, then immediately gave her a fawning smile. “Miss, you are indeed the smarter one. I will listen to you. We will go with whatever you say. Once we’ve helped them breakthrough, we will send them all away. If they dare to disobey us, I will go take care of them. What do you say to that, Miss?”
“I am going to send you away right now….”
“Hehehe, Miss. I have finished the jade bee honey. How about giving me a little bit more?”
“Get!”
“Oh, don’t be like that, Miss. I don’t need much. Just four bottles…”
“Get!”
“No, no, Miss. How about just three bottles?”
“……”
“Two. Two bottles. Miss only need to give me two bottles and I will get out of your hair right away. Miss…”
Old Man Ying and his persistency finally paid off. With the two bottles of jade bee honey in hand, he disappeared happily.
Cheng Xiao Xiao shook her head, headed back to Yuteng Pavilion and then into the dimension.
Her father had spending his time in the dimension to keep her grandmother company, leaving all the outside work to be taken care of by Zhou Jinjiang.
Every time Cheng Xiao Xiao went inside the dimension and saw how attentive her father was when he took care of her grandmother, she couldn’t help but lament. Her father loved her grandmother so much. So much that he even declined her mother’s offer to help him take care of her grandmother.
Of course, in addition to her father’s respect and love for her grandmother, she could also tell the thick sense of guilt and regret.
She could tell that the matters of her grandmother would be bothering him for a long time to come.
Her grandmother would be the only one that could help him move on. Otherwise, the matters would only get worse over time.
Cheng Xiao Xiao left again without disturbing that man who was taking care of her grandmother.
Under the crystal fruit tree, Cheng Xiao Xiao casually picked a fruit. She snacked on the fruit as she asked the little fairy sitting on the tree branch, “When will my grandmother wake up?”
“Whenever you like!” Said Little Yuteng with a smile, her bare feet swaying back and forth in the air.
Cheng Xiao Xiao wasn’t surprised by her answer. She asked again, “What’s the difference between waking her up earlier or later?”
“If we wake her up too soon, it’d be difficult for her to control her emotions and that might bring about other issues. If we let her rest for a while, there won’t be any serious consequences afterward even if she was emotional.”
“So you are saying that she would sleeping for a while longer?”
Cheng Xiao Xiao frowned a little bit and asked again, “Is there anything else that you can do? Do you have any mystical medicines that could help grandma with her mood so that we can wake her up sooner?”
“Not at the moment. I am working on it.”
Little Yuteng pouted a little and, looking at the person who was snacking on the fruit, asked, “Young Mistress, are we going to continue creating more cultivation doctrines?”
“Yes, starting today, we need to really buckle down and work on that. We have quite a bit now, but still not enough.”
“That’s easy. Let’s keep going.”
“Let’s go to my study!”
The girl and the fairy went inside the study in the mansion and started getting busy all over again.
“Xiao Xiao…”
As soon as she had gone outside, she saw her mother and her uncle approached her. Both of them looking anxious.
Looking at the two of them in surprise, Cheng Xiao Xiao asked, “Mom, Uncle, what’s the matter?”
“Xiao Xiao, where’s your dad? How come I can’t find him?” asked Mrs. Cheng who didn’t know what was going on.
As Luo JunHao hasn’t learned about the dimension yet, Cheng Xiao Xiao just casually made up an excuse. “Dad went out to take care of some matters that came up.”
“Your dad is not here?” Mrs. Cheng was a bit surprised.
“No, he’s not.” Cheng Xiao Xiao looked over at the two again and asked, “Well? What seems to be the matter?”
“Xiao Xiao, something happened in City of Yan. I need to hurry back to find out what was going on,” replied Luo JunHao, looking a little gloomy.
“Something happened?”
