Chapter 1697 “Demon Realm’s Change (1)”
Coming out of her room, Qiu Moon acted like she didn’t notice the shadows trailing her at all. This should’ve been enough to get her through the day without issue, yet things never do go smoothly despite her trying to lay low. Right after the lady got out of her wing, a slender figure bumblingly runs right into her and causes a crashing sight to behold.
Rubbing the forehead, Qiu Moon had to take a second to gather herself before realizing who has come: “Hi-Highness, Princess, are you here to look for State Teacher?”
Groaning over the fall, Di Xiao Wan pulls herself up and makes a puckered face since this wasn’t someone she wanted to see: “Qiu Moon, I don’t need to ask anyone to come find State Teacher so you don’t need to ask me that. Also, it looks like you are mostly recovered from your injury.”
“Yes Princess, I am.”
“If you’ve recovered then you should begin preparations to leave, the palace doesn’t take in females from the outside. I only took you in because I saw you were hurt. If my brother finds out I brought a female home then he will definitely kill me.” Puckering her lips, Di Xiao Wan recalls back to the mean old appearance of Di Cang’s face whenever she does a blunder.
Qiu Moon kept her head down during their conversation, but those hands had already tightened into a ball at the idea of being expelled: “Princess, I…. don’t have anywhere else to go.”
“That so?” Di Xiao Wan furrows up her brow in contemplation, “Let’s do this then. I’ll get someone to prepare a house for you outside, you can stay there until you decide where to go.”
Seeing they are both foxes, the demon princess didn’t have the heart to simply shoo the frail looking lady out onto the streets. What’s more, this was the Demon Realm, they both have the right to live in this realm where all demons call home.
Qiu Moon finally raises her head and didn’t look so dejected anymore with that gorgeous smile: “Thank you princess.”
For some reason, towards the fox lady’s behavior, Di Xiao Wan felt oddly uncomfortable to the point where she subconsciously wanted to distance herself from the other side….
“If there’s nothing else, you can pack up tonight and depart tomorrow morning.” After saying that, the demon princess attempts to walk away to avoid prolonging the conversation. However, that’s when her eyes caught a glimpse of State Teacher who was rapidly approaching from the front.
“State Teacher!” She exclaims with glee in her voice.
“Are you all right?” The man asks with heavy panting but was nevertheless relieved to find the princess safe and sound.
Slightly startled by the questions and how fast he came over, Di Xiao Wan counters with a question of her own: “Why would I not be?”
This is my home, who can hurt me?
“That’s good to hear,” State Teacher smiles and stroked her head in a gentle manner, “go to my place to rest first, how about it?”
Nodding her head without any thought about the meaning: “Okay, but I want to know when my brother and sister-in-law are going to be back. I miss Xiachen so much, I’m dying to give him a hug.”
“Then I got some good news for you. His Majesty just sent me a message before I came and that he will be returning to the Demon Realm very soon.” The gentle cooing of this man brought a smile to Di Xiao Wan’s face.
By then the couple was ready to leave then, but not before State Teacher shot a fleeting glance towards Qiu Moon who was standing to one side. It’s a warning and a threat.
I need to act tonight if I must leave tomorrow. This man is onto me somehow… The fox lady thought after feeling a cold shudder.
