The white phoenix received a peaceful and silent reply since that celestial being had drifted away and vanished in the clouds.
***
Within Yue City’s Emperor Courtyard.
Feng Ruqing was lying on the bed as she huddled up. Her body was in so much pain that her face had turned pale, and her eyes were filled with agony.
Inside her body, a strong force that was violently striking her veins and wanting to tear her veins. Soon, the force would turn her completely into a useless person!
This was the side effects of taking banned drugs.
She thought the sufferings would be over in no time, however, she could not imagine that the effects would last that long.
However, she would still make the same choice even if she was given a second chance again.
“Brother Fu Chen, Mother seems to be in a lot of pain…” Qing Han’s petite face was scrunched up. “But I’ve eaten the green fruit before too. I did not end up like Mother. What happened to Mother…”
Fu Chen shot a glance at the silly girl beside.
‘What harm can come to you when you eat them for you bear the green fruit? That’s toxic for Mother!’
“I would never have given it to Mother if I had known that she would be in so much pain.” Qing Han squatted in grief as she rubbed her head against Feng Ruqing’s hands.
She was just like a gentle and docile kitten.
Fu Chen lowered his eyes and said, “If you didn’t give her the green fruit, perhaps she would be in greater sufferings compare to her situation right now…”
She could bear the pain of breaking her muscles and veins!
But she could not bear the pain of losing her family!
Fu Chen tightly bit his lips as he felt his heartstrings being tugged. It was painful.
Qing Han lifted her big eyes. All that she wanted to say was cut off as she saw the person at the door.
The man was celestially charming in his fluttering white dress. However, his handsome face looked a bit anxious.
Maybe it was because he had come in a rush. Therefore, his hair was messy, and he did not look as divine as before.
“Father!” Just like a star, Qing Han’s eyes brightened. “Brother Fu Chen, quick, look. Father has brought along a big doggie. But this big doggie… why does it look like a man?” Qing Han paused as her big eyes slowly looked around. “Yes, it looks like the big meanie that wanted to harm Mother back then!”
Fu Chen was speechless.
“It’s such a pity that it’s only a big doggie, which reminds me of Big Black that the Ninth Emperor had in the past. I really love Big Black. I would never eat a big doggie. If it were little wolfie or little snakie, I would cook them into soups and drink them tonight…”
Fu Chen shot another glance at Qing Han again, disdainfully.
‘Big Black is not a big doggie, it’s not a big doggie! That was a black dragon that the Ninth Emperor had adopted back then! How could you mix up a dragon and a dog?’
Nan Xian remained silent.
His pace was not as steady as before as he staggered toward Feng Ruqing.
He stopped as soon as he reached the young girl’s bed. Then, he gently caressed her frowning forehead with his fingertips. His eyes seemed distressed.
“Qing’er…”
‘I shouldn’t… I shouldn’t have left you alone.
‘I thought you wouldn’t be hurt if the white phoenix was around. However… it did not keep you safe.’
Fu Chen pursed his lips and said, “It’s not your fault, Father. Mother wasn’t hurt by others. She chose to save her mother by taking banned drugs. Therefore, even if you were around, she would still end up like this. You don’t need to blame yourself.”
This was the man… whom their mother liked.
Fu Chen did not want him to feel guilty.
Nan Xian’s hands slowly caressed the young girl’s face. His voice was low and deep. “All of you get out first!”
“But, Mother…” Qing Han sadly looked at Feng Ruqing. She was reluctant to leave.
She did not want to go. She wanted to stay and be by her mother’s side!
