White Snow- Princess Li Bai Xue

Chapter 22 - Stinky Apples

Li Bai Xue was helpless. She didn't know where she was. The place was dark and cold. It was lifeless. The last thing she remembered was that she fainted when Leader Wang was talking to her, but where was she right now? She had been wandering for who knows how long. She then heard weeping. Hope enter her heart.

"Is anyone there?"she asked. No one reply, but the weeping continued. She then walk to where the weeping sound came from. She then saw a figure who was covered in black was weeping on the ground.

The weeping stop, and the figure turned around. Li Bai Xue almost grasped. The woman had scars all over her face, and one of her eyes was missing. Some part of her hair was gone because it was burnt. Her head was burnt, red, and swollen.

"HEI YU! You turn me into this! Why are you making me suffer!? Why did you do this to me!? What have I ever done to you!"

The woman got up, and was running toward her. She started to run, but she fell because she couldn't see where she was going.

Li Bai Xue eyes open, and she shot up from her bed. She looked around her, and didn't see the disfigure woman. She then relaxed when she relaxed she felt her body was sore.

Lin Qian heard movement from outside went inside. "Gongzhu how are you feeling?"

Li Bai Xue saw Lin Qian, and smiled,"I am okay just a bit sore."

Lin Qian sigh,"Gongzhu... you shouldn't have cultivated after using your power. You should know it was too much for your body to handle."

Li Bai Xue smile at her for being cornered for her. "Lin Qian we have already talked about how you should addressed me."

Lin Qian look away. "Yes. Leader Wang had the kitchen make a tonic that is full of supplemental nourishment for the body. Do you want to eat it now?"

Li Bai Xue shook her head. "I am tired. Lin Qian you can eat it instead or do whatever you want with it. Lin Qian we have to leave this place soon."

"I understand. I will make all the preparation. Does Luye want to take Xiao Lin with us?"Lin Qian asked.

Li Bai Xue nodded. "I promised to return her back home. I also think it is better for her to go with us then for her to stick with a group of bandits."

"Then nubi will go tell Xiao Lin,"Lin Qian was about to turn around.

"Wait... Lin Qian do you know Leader Wang before?"Li Bai Xue asked. She had been wanting to ask her this when she heard of his past. Lin Qian was also sold off by her parents to an old master. She had escaped from the master, but she was captured by slave seller again.

Lin Qian escaped, but she was a beggar on the streets. Other beggars fought with her, and she had also died. That was when Li Bai Xue encountered her. Laoshi Hua had taken her out of the palace for a lesson. Li Bai Xue had saved her, and Lin Qian had became her loyal servant.

Lin Qian back was face her so she didn't see her expression, but Li Bai Xue already knew the answer. "It fine if you don't want to answer. If you want to stay here with him then it okay. Whatever your decision is I will support you."

Lin Qian left the room after that. She told Tang Lin the news, and left to go tell Wang Hao Han.

"Tell your leader I want to see him,"Lin Qian told the guard at the door. It was a while before the guard came back to left her in. She went to the meeting hall where she had been in earlier. Wang Hao Han was in the seat that was a bit higher than the rest of the seat.

"You... want to see me?"

"Yes Leader Wang. Me and my friends will return to where we come from. We thank Leader Wang for his kindness to us for the past few days. That is all,"Lin Qian said. She turned around, and was ready to leave.

"Stinky apples!"Wang Hao Han shouted.

Lin Qian turn around right away. "Stop calling me that! You stinky plum!"

Wang Hao Han smiled right away. He was really happy at the moment. He had been waiting for her for years. Lin Qian was embarrassed because of her slip of words. It was out of habit from when she was little.

"...How have you been?"he asked. He really wants to ask about the scar, but didn't want to hurt her feelings. So he could only asked this question.

"I have been well,"Lin Qian already knew what his thoughts were,"this scar on my face was when I faced a assassination. Hao Han let me tell you something. I don't have much to live."

Wang Hao Han felt his entire life was going to shattered. "What are you talking about?"

"This scar on my face is what is reminding me that I will die. I am prepared to die, but I am scared. When I died, I am scared that she will be scared and alone. Hao Han will you do me a favor?"Lin Qian looked at him.

Wang Hao Han eyes were closed, but he was lost. Wu Shuang who was hiding was beside him. He still had his fan which covered his face. "Such a sweet girl. Having her disappeared from this world is just too bad for the world." He had heard everything that had happened between them. "Stop crying."

Wang Hao Han faces had tears falling from it. "My heart hurts. Why couldn't I do anything to help her? Xiao Shuang can you really not cure her?"

"I can't. Her body was already affected by the poison before she was saved. There is nothing anyone can anymore,"Wu Shuang said. Wang Hao Han already knew, but he couldn't help but have hope.

He really want her to live.
