Ying Bao (29)

Ying Bao immediately ran back to the Triumph Palace to look for her mother. When she saw her mother, she threw herself into her arms and cried.

"What's wrong, Ying Bao?" Jing Xi asked when she noticed how devastated her daughter was.

"Waah… Mommy… Uncle… he left…"

Realizing that that was what she was upset about, Jing Xi smiled and comforted her. "Mommy knows. He has returned to the kingdom. He didn't wait for you to come back because he doesn't want you to worry. He said that he will still come to watch your performance on the day itself."

Hearing her mother's words, Ying Bao suddenly stood up from her arms and asked excitedly, "Mommy, you're saying… you're… Uncle, he… he's not dead?"

"Yeah, who said that Xuanye is dead? He has just gone home!"

Ying Bao was finally relieved. She wiped her tears and said, "Oh my! I thought… Ah… after all this, I thought… I was scared to death!"
