1496 Words
The Hua mother and son went to the village and bid farewell. Some were joyous others were sad, joyous because the little rascal would be gone, sad because the beautiful goddess is gone.
"Little blue, let's hurry now," she implied then off they went to the realm where her family resides.
"Mama would they like me," the dumpling ask.
"Who wouldn't like my cute cuddly little bun," she said as she hugged and ruffled his son's hair.
"Mmm, after all my mom is the most beautiful, then wouldn't also that make me handsome," her child was indeed narcissistic and she could only curse the genes of that shameless man.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
Lady Hua Lou dazedly looked at the dying plums. Ever since she lost her precious child the ever beautiful realm of spring withered.
"Mother please, at least take a sip of this flower tea. You have neglected your health for the past years already," pleaded Hua Jie, the second child.
"Sweetheart, please drink this tea it will calm you down. What would Xiao Meili say?" reprimanded Hua Long, the patriarch of the family.
Hearing that forgotten name she even got sadder and cried. Due to this, the Hua siblings glared at there father.
"Mother, Father is right at least take care of your health. If Chunchun knew this she would ignore you for a year," Hua Wu nodded.
As the children continued begging for there mother.
A sweet bell-like voice called.
"I'm home!" hearing such voice the withered plums and other plants returned back to their normal colour and vibrancy. The air was warm but a bit chilly which made it fresher.
"Chunchun had came back!" Lady Hua Lou happily chirped and her children also were excited to meet their long-lost sister.
However, someone was already a step ahead of them, Hua Long disappeared like a smoke and is already racing to where his child is.
"Good thing Chunchun is already back, that old man kept on destroying my garden," Lady Hua Lou sighed as she helplessly sighed.
"Eh? Then mother the reason why your always gloomy is because of father--"
"Yes! That old man! When no one is looking he goes under my plum tree and kept weeping and sobbing like a lady. He even casts a winter wind which cause my flowers and all my plants to lose its vibrancy and colour," Lady Hua Lou intercepted however she gave a sigh of relief.
'You couldn't lose face to your children, you even need to hide it,' she thought with a loving smile.
'Aye, father is indeed such a great actor' they all thought and helplessly sighed.
Master Hua Long is happily waving at his daughter whilst, calling, "Chunchun, Chunchun."
But has never yet been notice by Hua Chun Meili as she pulls down her son.
"Mama is these where you live?" asked Hua Yiqie.
Hearing the word 'mama' Master Hua Long tripped and stumbled on the ground and went straight to where Hua Chun Meili and the little bun.
"Ah, Papa, what are you doing on the ground?" Hua Chun Meili looked at the deity whose tears run like river on the ground.
Standing he held her daughter's shoulder as he shake her and little bun crazy!
"Waahh!! You damn girl! Running away from home then coming back as two do you put your father in your eyes! Wuwuwu," Master Hua Long pitifully said as he shrugged his daughter back and forth.
"Darling," a sweet voice called and then he disappeared in front of Hua Chun Meili and then appeared in the arms of his wife.
"Wuwuwu. Chunchun is rebelling. My princess is already taken by a man disappeared as one came back as three!"
She gaze at the loving family of 'Hua Chun Meili', she didn't want to return because she had thought a lot of possibilities if they have known she was a fake, like those in the novel, would they burn her, humiliate her or worse kill her!
Though filled with uncertainities her gaze landed on her child, she couldn't lose him due to her hesitations and assumptions.
Thus with a smile she hope that she was acting the same as the behavior of the past Hua Chun Meili, "I'm home."
Everyone stilled and her heartbeat thumped loudly, but her heart settled when the woman she assumes is the mother gave her a firm hug.
Little blue suddenly disappeared without them noticing. He sighed as he was able to finally get away from the clutches of his master's heir and could finally go back to his master.
Hua Yiqie unknowingly cast a barrier on that island even when he was in his mother's belly thus his inability to contact his master and he couldn't leave them behind.
However, Little Blue hesitated for a moment. His master might kacha! his head knowing he didn't contact him for a long time.
And furthermore, because of the spring's scent that lingered on Lady Hua Chun Meili he was drawn and became her horse for 3 years.
'Should I contact him or not? If I did he would either kacha my head or torture me to death? But I am that Demon's beloved treasure, he would at least not do that right? Right?!'
Little blue tried convincing himself but unexpectedly while he was busy consoling himself a voice resonated in his head.
"Wu Long, how did your trip went?" a cold voice ask in his head. It was a casual question but it carried a heavy pressure for Little Blue.
"Master it been a long time," he replied, looking very relaxed but he was trembling inside.
"Good, good I hope you're done with your vacation. Now return back or I'll break your wings and put you in the seventh floor pagoda," the threat was so suffocating he wanted to flee.
"Yes, Mas-"
"Blue! Little blue," a childish little voice rang in every corner of the garden.
The child's appearance surprised him, he was about to disconnect their communication but he stopped.
"Keep the communication running."
Wu Long complied.
"Young master," he ushered the little bun to where he is.
"Mama has been taken by granny and grandpa leaving me with that vicious wolf-like aunties and uncles. They tried to devour me," he complained clinging to his thighs.
Wu Long, as always, carried the little bun in his arms.
'Young master I'll miss you wuwuwu. Seeing you grow up into such adorable mischievous brat I am so unproud of how you develop such unruly attitude but nevertheless, I'll miss you.'
"Little Blue why are you crying?" the little bun ask.
"Because I'll miss you, young master," he said.
He remembered how his young master started to walk and he assisted him, or the time where he would be angry at his mom he would hurriedly crawl and went to him.
He's such a cute one however as he started to learn to talk and become strong enough to run around he caused mischiefs making his life a living hell.
The boy shifted and look at him.
"Is this about what you said when I found out you can turn to any form that you need to return to someone else's side. Can you not go back I'll talk to your master," the bun tearfully pleaded.
'As if I could deny your ice cube father!'
But he just helplessly shrugged. 'Sorry little bun he'll chop my beautiful wings off or worse my head!'
Letting him down, he was reluctant but duty before anything else is his motto.
"Then Little blue must visit Yiqie every full moon," the bun pleaded with puppy eyes.
"Then young master must also take care," he said as he turned into a mighty dragon then soared.
However, something felt weird like his tail is heavy. Looking back, his heart nearly stop, his young master is clinging tightly to his tail.
"Young master!" he scolded.
"What happened?"
'Your father is still here and would skin me alive if he finds out how reckless you are!'
He stiffened and said with a forced smile, "Young Master, are you alright, why did you run? Look your knees are scraped."
"But--" he hurriedly hush the child else his master will know how he carelessly held onto his tail as they flew six feet away from the ground.
Helplessly he plucked one of his scales and brought it to his tiny hands.
"You know I keep my promise. You'll know I'll come, my scale will always glow when I am near," he said touching it making the scale glow dark blue.
"Alright then if little Blue won't come I'll tell father," the child innocently said but it made Little Blue scared.
'Like father, like son!' he complained.
"Then be careful," the little bun hugged his claws, and bid him farewell.
