The General's Genius Daughter Chapter 233 - Meeting Yun Shimo Again

Chapter 233 Meeting Yun s.h.i.+mo AgainHua Qiyue swept her cursory, indifferent eyes at the suddenly appearing Yun s.h.i.+mo. At this moment, Tianci’s shrill screams drew Ji Feng, Xuanji and the rest over. Even the hare appeared.

While searching for Tianci, the hare had not been with Hua Qiyue. It went alone in another direction instead.

“Tianci…”

“We’ve found Tianci!” Ji Jing and the others remarked jubilantly. But the moment they set their eyes on Yun s.h.i.+mo opposite them, they all quietened down.

They had not seen him for over a year. Yun s.h.i.+mo looked the same as before, but his eyes looking even more cold and solemn.

Hua Qiyue hugged Tianci tightly, staring at the man coldly.

Although they used to be lovers, they were like great enemies at this meeting. They were no longer the affectionate couple of the past.

Hua Qiyue coldly lifted the corner of her lips. Tianci stared at Yun s.h.i.+mo, and then at Hua Qiyue. “Mom, could you… follow dad to the place we live…” Tianci wanted Yun s.h.i.+mo so much to like Hua Qiyue, so that the three of them could live peacefully as one happy family.

But Hua Qiyue said coldly, “Tianci, come with Mom!”

Tianci sniffed his nose, in quite a predicament. What a decision to make! He liked dad and liked mom as much. Why couldn’t they live together?

“Dad… sorry, I really wanted to see mom, that’s why I sneaked out. I hope you won’t blame me, dad…” Tianci lowered his head, not daring to look into Yun s.h.i.+mo’s cold eyes.

Hua Qiyue pulled at Tianci. “Let’s go back to the inn. We’ll rest for one day before going home.”

Tianci glanced at one, and then at the other.

Huangfu Xuan leaped out, his fist lashed out at Yun s.h.i.+mo with abundant anima energy. “Yun s.h.i.+mo, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, how dare you do such a despicable thing!”

Huangfu Xuan was forthright. So the moment he saw Yun s.h.i.+mo, he could not keep that raging fire within him under control.

Xuanji and the rest saw this and could only slightly knit their brows.

Hua Qiyue did not leave, because Tianci was pulling at her, rooted to the spot and stared stubbornly at Yun s.h.i.+mo. Hua Qiyue felt a twinge of pain in her heart. Her son’s heart was now undoubtedly tipped in favor of Yun s.h.i.+mo.

He must have hoped that they could live together! But she was the one Tianci had yearned to see. Yet after that…

Yun s.h.i.+mo’s figure drifted around ethereally. No matter how hard Huangfu Xuan tried, his blows could not hit Yun s.h.i.+mo’s body.

“Enough, Brother Huangfu!” Yun s.h.i.+mo suddenly spoke. He suddenly grabbed Huangfu Xuan’s fist. Huangfu Xuan struggled and discovered to his shock that Yun s.h.i.+mo’s strength was even more powerful than before!

Just a light pat and he could not counter it!

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d! You still have the temerity to come and see Qiyue… I am going to kill you!” Huangfu Xuan growled coldly. Tianci tugged at Hua Qiyue’s clothing. “Mom, why… why is that big brother treating dad this way? Has dad done something wrong?”

Hua Qiyue sighed. “That big brother’s angry with your dad. He thought that your dad had locked you up and kept you from seeing mom.”

Tianci nodded, seemingly and yet not quite able to understand the situation. So that’s why! He thought that his dad had done something shameless.

One ought to know that in Tianci’s heart, Yun s.h.i.+mo was like a G.o.dly presence.

“Brother Huangfu, please don’t be impulsive. Let’s have tea and chat in the inn!” Ji Feng was also unwilling to see everyone have a falling-out. After all, he always believed that Yun s.h.i.+mo had his reasons in departing.

Ji Jing gave a cold snort. Her face darkened.

At this moment, Murong Zhen’er and Murong Lingzhe, too, walked over. When they saw the newly appearing Yun s.h.i.+mo, they stared at the others and did not dare to say anything.

“You people… better come along with me. Under the protection of the array interior, Tianci won’t be discovered by those men… Otherwise, if we stay here for too long, we won’t be able to fight them once they arrive,” Yun s.h.i.+mo finally said quietly.

Everyone stared at Yun s.h.i.+mo with a stunned expression.

Those men?

Who really were those men? No one could say.

Tianci blinked his eyes, lifting up his innocent little face to Hua Qiyue. “Mom, why don’t we go back together? Grandma said that she misses you!”

Hua Qiyue’s heart was a little stunned. She did not expect Madame Yun to say this. Since Princess Qianyang was now Yun s.h.i.+mo’s wife, why would she still say this?

She watched Tianci’s face. He seemed to want to go back with Yun s.h.i.+mo, but could not give up Hua Qiyue. He was in a dilemma.

And Hua Qiyue was truly unwilling to go along with Yun s.h.i.+mo.

“Tianci, mom… doesn’t want to go with your dad, because I have many, many things to do. Are you willing to come with mom?” Hua Qiyue squatted down, gazing at Tianci entreatingly.

Tianci was already seven. She could not force him. If she took Tianci away by force, it would most likely provoke his revulsion.

So long as Tianci was happy, Hua Qiyue could let Yun s.h.i.+mo take care of him. Or maybe… she could sacrifice herself. She would first let Tianci familiarize himself with her, and then take him away.

The first scenario was very unlikely to happen. After all, he was her own flesh and blood from her previous life. How could she bear to leave Tianci with Yun s.h.i.+mo?

Tianci murmured an a.s.sent. A look of disappointment pa.s.sed over his face. He stared at Yun s.h.i.+mo and then at Hua Qiyue. For a brief moment, he could not make up his mind.

“Tianci can’t leave right now. We can’t afford to provoke those men. Better go back with me into the array. Wait for Tianci to become familiar with you, and… only when your Qi Art reaches the great completeness of Holy G.o.d can you roam about Yuewu Kingdom,” Yun s.h.i.+mo said quietly.

Hua Qiyue furrowed her brows, looking coldly at Yun s.h.i.+mo. “What sort of enemies have you provoked?”

If he had not, why would he say that? Someone even Yun s.h.i.+mo and herself could not deal with— his opponent must be some old freak!

Yun s.h.i.+mo’s eyes suddenly began to look downcast. He tried with all his powers to refrain from loving Hua Qiyue, to disguise the truest feelings in his heart. But Hua Qiyue’s eyes were icy.

Her icy stare was so natural; it did not look at all feigned.

Yes, he had taken Tianci away. He did not leave even a word for her. How could she not hate him?

Hua Qiyue gave a cold snort. “Whether you can deal with them is entirely your own problem. It’s not your business either whether I take Tianci away. Those people want to kill you, not Tianci!”

Yun s.h.i.+mo knitted his brows. Tianci stood there, indecision crumpling his little face.

“Why not this: Let’s stay in Xuanyuan City for a few days and allow Tianci time to consider. Let’s see who he prefers to go with,” Ji Feng said in a whisper.

Hua Qiyue nodded. She must first humor the boy and make him inclined to her. After all, Yun s.h.i.+mo was not his biological father. But her soul was Tianci’s real mom!

Hua Qiyue no longer cared, pulling Tianci to Prosperity Inn. Tianci gave Yun s.h.i.+mo a glance and then departed quite unwillingly with Hua Qiyue.

However, the company had just taken a few steps when Tianci suddenly gripped his abdomen and turn pale

Hua Qiyue was terrified that she squatted, gripping his shoulders. She asked anxiously, “Tianci, how are you feeling? Tianci…”

Tianci felt such pain that he fell down, large beads of cold sweat rolling down his forehead. His little face was contorted.

“Allow me!” Yun s.h.i.+mo saw this and strode over. He took out a vial and shook two drops of purplish liquid into Tianci’s mouth.

After absorbing the two drops of purplish liquid, the pain in Tianci’s abdomen slowly subsided.

He gasped weakly, Hua Qiyue embracing him tightly in her arms. She stared coldly at Yun s.h.i.+mo standing before her.

“What did you feed Tianci? Why is he turning out this way?” Huangfu Xuan asked icily.

Although Tianci and he were not friendly to each other, Huangfu Xuan still quite liked this little fellow. After all, he could love him for his mother’s sake. Tianci had all along been Hua Qiyue’s most treasured adopted son.

Yun s.h.i.+mo glanced quietly at Huangfu Xuan. Huangfu Xuan really wanted to punch Yun s.h.i.+mo into a pulp.

“Brother Yun, I don’t believe you’re such a person. You must have your reasons. How about this? Since Tianci’s condition isn’t too good, why don’t we follow Brother Yun to his secluded place?” Ji Feng did not wish to see Hua Qiyue and Yun s.h.i.+mo break up.

Although he had vowed to treat Hua Qiyue well, he knew that there would always be someone else hidden in her heart…

Even if he guessed wrong, he believed that Hua Qiyue would still not accept him easily now.

If Hua Qiyue faced Yun s.h.i.+mo, the knot in her heart might slowly get untangled. It would prove beneficial for her sentiments in the future.

Tianci grabbed Hua Qiyue’s hand. “Mom, I’m fine now…”

“Were you having a tummy ache?” Hua Qiyue kissed his forehead with heartache, asking him gently.

“Yes, it hurts so much. Each time it hurts, dad will feed me with the purplish liquid…” Tianci nodded, replying quietly. The rest were silent. They stared at Hua Qiyue and Tianci, waiting for her to come to a decision.

Hua Qiyue stared at Tianci’s pale little face. Her tears seemed almost about to gush out.

How could her son suffer such pain? But she could only watch by the side, totally helpless.

“This purple liquid was formulated by me in the cave. I can’t do it here. I need lots of anima energy of the heaven and the earth…” Yun s.h.i.+mo said quietly.

In other words, Tianci must return with Yun s.h.i.+mo?

Hua Qiyue’s heart was full of helplessness and despondency. She quietly embraced Tianci in her bosom, holding back her tears. “Then, Tianci… go back with your dad.”

“Mom, you will come along with us, won’t you?” Tianci shook his head, clenching stubbornly her robe sleeve. “I don’t want to leave mom either.”

Hua Qiyue glanced at the indifferent Yun s.h.i.+mo and gritted her teeth. She could only nod and acquiesce.

Tianci let out a small whoop of joy.

For a brief moment, everyone stared at one another. They did not know what to do for the moment.

“All of you come along with me. The more, the merrier.” Hua Qiyue glanced at Xuanji and the rest and said quietly.

Murong Zhen’er’s eyes lit up, but Murong Lingzhe held her back. “Sister, if we follow along, that enchantress might wreak havoc in our Murong Family.”

That’s right. If they had followed Hua Qiyue to that place, they would not be able to leave in a short time.

Murong Zhen’er was quite unwilling to stay. Hua Qiyue remembered Hua Mengs.h.i.+. “Zhen’er, the woman you hate most is my younger second sister.”

“What?” Murong Zhen’er and Murong Lingzhe widened their eyes. They stared incredulously at Hua Qiyue.

“She disappeared more than a year ago. We’ve been searching for her. I didn’t expect her to be so unrepentant, still trying to harm Tianci and me. So I couldn’t let her off this time. Just now, when she tried to take Tianci away, I hacked away one of her hands. Tell these things to your parents. I believe they will make the right decision,” Hua Qiyue said quietly.

Murong Zhen’er heard this and was delighted. She had followed Hua Qiyue to get her to drive Murong Mengs.h.i.+ away. Now that she had received this news, she no longer needed to follow Hua Qiyue.

After thanking Hua Qiyue, Murong Zhen’er and Murong Lingzhe left together. Hua Qiyue and the rest followed Yun s.h.i.+mo to the mountain. All of a sudden, a tempest started to rage…
