Three years after Bai Lianhua brought Bai Junhui back to Shanyi Village, last night was the point where Bai Lianhua could feel her father was truly back here. Even though his soul was occasionally left in the Li Ming city palace, sometimes he still muttered while painting things that smelled of Gao Renwei, but Bai Lianhua has started to understand little by little how her father let go of his stupidity and a broken heart. Every now and then Bai Lianhua would ask granny lotus about a love affair and why humans would succumb to such things, but then granny lotus would just laugh and say, “You're the only one who seems too smart to be fooled by something called love. You're very ambitious, but you're also naive at times. Feeling disappointed because your father left you first build a stronghold high on your own expectations. Makes you more focused on protecting and protecting people from feelings they might be experiencing as you are experiencing too. It's a virtue that can lead astray, L
"Surprised, huh?" she replied softly. On her lips, tugged a sly smile. The scene three years ago—when the girl was still wearing a pink hanfu, walking out of the Wine Shop and the Spring Maiden in Li Ming City's palace market had almost disappeared. Her stature was completely different and it made Bai Lianhua freeze. Inside the house, her father stood with a gloomy face. It was as if he had heard something that Bai Lianhua had missed."What are you doing here?" asked Bai Lianhua straightly.Without answering, Bai Naxing raised a hand, and a maid who had been crouching beside her held out a scroll. Bai Lianhua accepted that and unrolled.It was clearly a wedding invitation. But what took Bai Lianhua by surprise was that the wedding invitation was made very formal and had an imperial seal. Bai Lianhua's eyes almost popped out, she gripped the scroll tightly and then looked at Bai Naxing in front of her. The girl smiled sweetly."You will definitely come, won't you?" she said withou
After that incident, Bai Junhui was busy painting all the time. Even Yao Yupan, who was worried because her ex-husband never ate together again, wondered what was going on. At first Bai Lianhua didn't want to tell, but because it seemed that this matter couldn't be covered up for long either, Bai Lianhua explained everything.“Then… is your father going there?” asked Yao Yupan a little worriedly.Bai Lianhua shook her head hard. “No,” with a heart already burning with hatred because of her half-sister's behavior, let alone coming, just to see her, Bai Lianhua would never allow her father to have any further contact with that demon.“No wonder a few days ago, there was news that King Li Ming Lao would be carrying out a marriage. The celebration was so exciting. At the Civil Palace, several lanterns and decorations have been installed to celebrate the day. Because on the same wedding day, King Li Ming Lao will ascend the throne to become Emperor. But… in that case, it's good for Bai
The turtle goddess egg given by Granny Lotus turned out to be very effective. Within a few hours after Bai Junhui consumed it, he was able to sit up and look back at his painting. When Bai Lianhua brought food to the room, she saw her father packing up the painting tools into the basket that he used to bring when he wanted to paint outdoors."Father, where are you going?"Bai Junhui turned his head, he smiled happily. Although his face is still a little pale, he already looks healthier and fitter."I want to go to the park. You want to come?"Bai Lianhua naturally wanted to come along. She and Bai Junhui together went to the park where he had painted Gao Renwei for the first time. Bai Lianhua didn't know this garden had once witnessed Bai Junhui fall to his knees at Gao Renwei's beauty.Painstakingly, Bai Junhui placed a wooden canvas stand in front of the calm waters of the lake while the sunlight gently bathed the vast meadow. From behind him, Bai Lianhua saw her father's weak and s
That night, after accompanying Bai Junhui to paint for a while in the garden of the village in front of the lake, people passing by were no longer interested in seeing Bai Junhui's work. Whereas in the past, Bai Junhui's ideals were so honorable that he was like a noble who had extraordinary talent. Moreover, now people prefer to forget about Bai Junhui and don't want to get involved in anything. Actually, things weren't that bad, at least Bai Lianhua could focus on monitoring her father.After dinner, Yao Yupan cleaned up the dining area and Bai Junhui helped her for a bit. Although the man's movement was still a little weak, he was able to move more nimbly. Although it is not known whether the effect of the egg of the turtle goddess can completely erase the wound inside Bai Junhui, Bai Lianhua can only hope. Bai Lianhua went to the lotus marsh and gave her the box her father had just given her. She had promised that today she would have to practice some moves under the moonlight.
As soon as Bai Lianhua came back from the lotus swamp hut, she rushed home hoping to think of a plan to face Bai Naxing. Even though her half-sister was almost as tall as the sky—as she was about to become the future empress, Bai Lianhua didn't care. She must find granny lotus and free her. But before Bai Lianhua's mind cleared of all the tightness in her chest, from the door of her residence, a woman—her neighbor, cried out in panic with wide eyes.“Lianhua! Lianhua! Quickly help your mother! She—she—” With the nervousness that was shouted out like that, it was clear Bai Lianhua's heart was getting restless. She saw that there were several people standing in front of the door of the house. Bai Lianhua pressed in. Her thoughts became increasingly chaotic when she walked to the edge of the room where her father was. As she ran, from the hallway came a woman's voice crying. She knew that voice very well.Suddenly, her heart pounded and her hands clenched into fists. When she reached the
The sound of a burning fire broke the silence of the night. Guo Fen suddenly didn't realize he had been crying. While beside him Rong Mei was silent as if she could feel again the sadness her teacher had felt. In front of him, Bai Lianhua's nearly half-a-century-old face did not change. Guo Fen felt that this woman was almost like the granny lotus in Guo Fen's imagination all along.It's the saddest thing to hear granny lotus doesn't get a happy ending.“Then now, where is granny lotus? Are you looking for her in that palace? Bai Naxing is so ruthless! Besides her daring to kill her own mother—although I'm actually a little happy about that part—she really is a cruel woman! What your father said was right, Bai Naxing has a terrible devil's heart,” exclaimed Guo Fen who suddenly understood the emotion that was evident in every story of Bai Lianhua.As a child who had just escaped from a band of bandits, it turned out that his life was not as bad as Bai Lianhua's. All this time he t
“Lianhua,” Yao Yupan called when the girl was staring at the black painting in her room. Bai Lianhua got up from the chair and turned to the doorway where her mother was standing."There's someone who wants to meet you."It must be Detective Han Wu, Bai Lianhua muttered. She didn't say anything and walked past her mother. But just as she was about to take a step, Yao Yupan grabbed her hand.With a worried look, the woman whispered softly, “You're not involved in any trouble, are you? That person seems to be from the palace.”Bai Lianhua's eyes swept across the terrace at the front of the residence. The figure of a large man with broad shoulders and slightly white hair standing back."Take it easy, Mother. I'm not causing any trouble.""You know that person?""Yes. I was the one who invited him here.”"What for?" Yao Yupan grew even more worried. “I know you've been angry with your half-sister, but… you have to listen to what your teacher says. Don't live with grudges."Bai Lianhua was
