Ah Chen arrived late, and when she saw Yu Xiaoran, she was sure it was him in control of the body. Cheerfully, she greeted, "President Yu, long ti no see. How are you getting along with your brother-in-law, father-in-law, and mother-in-law?"
Yu Xiaoran was sullen, only casting her a glance without saying much. He knew the Bai Family was finished, and moreover, the Yu Family was a ss too. All this ti, he had been questioning why he was reborn. What’s the purpose of reincarnation?
Was it really worth it to end up like this for Bai Ying?
"President Yu, your beloved Bai Ying is here. Why don’t you greet her when you see her? Aren’t you madly in love with her?" Ah Chen asked again.
Ah Chen stepped aside, revealing Bai Ying.
Yu Xiaoran was naturally smart, and the mont he saw Bai Ying, many thoughts flashed through his mind.
He silently closed his eyes. It turns out the Bai Ying he liked, it was her soul that was Bai Ying’s, but her appearance was still Bai Chen’s.
"Mr. Frog, co over quickly." Ah Chen no longer concerned herself with the regretful Yu Xiaoran and shouted when she saw Ji Wuyan approaching.
Imdiately, countless teasing gazes fell on Ji Wuyan. He was a bit pleased, yet a bit embarrassed, his face slightly red, but he quickly ca to Ah Chen’s side and held her hand.
The Ji Family mbers were over there, laughing but not joining in.
After the greetings, everyone was present, and they bowed toward a position, saying, "We respectfully invite Lord Divine Stone."
"The Nightingale Clan has breached the contract and disrupted order. We request Lord Divine Stone to punish the Nightingale Clan."
The mbers of the Nightingale Clan all looked ashen, but only Bai Ying sighed in relief. Rather than bearing a man’s form, she would rather turn back into a bird, as she couldn’t accept her current appearance.
A golden light flashed before their eyes, and a human-sized stone suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
The light from the stone didn’t dissipate; instead, it spread over everyone present. Ah Chen distinctly noticed that when the light fell on her, there was so curiosity from the other side, as if sensing her goodwill and having learned the truth from others, the light beca increasingly friendly towards her.
"Lord Divine Stone, why not let Bai Ying stay a human? She hasn’t been one for long and hasn’t experienced what it’s like to be human." Ah Chen suddenly spoke.
This startled Bai Ying, who was feeling relieved, and she shouted angrily, "Bai Chen, you’re too much!"
Ah Chen wore a slight smile, "I wouldn’t take over soone’s body, nor steal others’ advantages, and I certainly wouldn’t turn their life upside down. You wanted to be human, right? I’m just fulfilling that for you. But you will still have to face punishnt; you can’t remain human forever. Be a human for ten years, then return to your original form."
"Lord Divine Stone, do you think this works?"
The mbers of the Mysterious Family were taken aback. It was the first ti soone called Lord Divine Stone a friend, and they sensed that Lord Divine Stone was not angry and even accepted the term.
She was more formidable than they imagined!
Fortunately, they hadn’t offended her, and fortunately, she took a liking to a mber of their Mysterious Family. They sneaked a glance at Ji Wuyan, nodding; yes, this young man from the Frog Family was quite good.
The Bai Ying family mbers were turning back into their original form, except for Bai Ying, who had no change. She shouted, "Let return to my original form too."
"What’s the rush? Be a human for ten years first," Ah Chen said. "Ten years will pass in the blink of an eye."
Bai Ying no longer dared to say anything bad about Ah Chen; she was scared.
Yu Xiaoran was also scared, not daring to harbor any grievances.
Watching the transformation of Bai Jingwei and his family into birds beside him, he felt relieved, wondering when he might be freed.
While pondering, his body suddenly felt light, and the souls of the three returned to their own bodies.
Bai Yu and the trio realized they actually had a connection with Yu Xiaoran’s body, seemingly able to return at will. They guessed it was so trick by Bai Chen, but there was not much they could do about it now.
"So that’s what the Nightingale Clan’s true forms look like; why do they look different from common nightingales?"
"I see a difference too. They have nightingale traits but more characteristics of another bird species."
"I recognize it; aren’t the additional traits more like those of a dove?"
"aning, they are likely the offspring of nightingales and doves?"
"No wonder they’re so adept at exploiting loopholes and love stealing things; the mystery is solved."
"Most of their lineage is dove, yet they brazenly call themselves nightingales."
Ah Chen listened to their discussions, slightly surprised. She hadn’t thought it involved matters of lineage.
After being exposed to the Divine Stone’s light, these "Nightingale Clan" mbers no longer possessed any special abilities and were now just ordinary birds with human minds. With only that, there was no way to change anything.
She approached Bai Suqiu, who was about to fly away but was caught in her hand, "Your matter isn’t over yet."
The other mbers of the "Nightingale Clan" were also captured. The Mysterious Family would cage them and hand them over to the victims for care.
Many victims led miserable lives, so keeping the "Nightingale Clan" confined near the victims seed quite fair.
Did they really think reverting to their original form would be the end of it all?
As everyone dispersed, they no longer paid attention to Bai Ying, but they arranged for soone to keep an eye on her to prevent any misdeeds.
Seeing her clan mbers’ fate, Bai Ying suddenly felt fortunate to still be human, but at the thought of having only ten years as a human, she beca fearful, caught in a paradox.
"Miss Bai, what’s this?" Xu Chang asked, confused, since Miss Bai had suddenly given her a bird.
Ah Chen smiled, "Bai Suqiu, make sure to keep it well; if it flies away, I won’t help you catch it."
Xu Chang looked at the birdcage, laughing with joy, "Alright, I got it, thank you, Miss Bai. And about what happened before?"
"I’ll take care of it right away. Just feed it normally during this ti; the bird will be a bit dumb, but it will eat."
Xu Chang was relieved. She wouldn’t mistreat Bai Suqiu, just keep him, finding comfort in watching him in the cage. When, one day, she completely lets go, she’ll free him.
"I want to move on, not remain imrsed in those encounters forever."
"Then, I wish you erge soon, Ms. Xu," Ah Chen said, feeling it wouldn’t be long.
Yu Xiaoran returned to the Yu Family. With the Yu Family in chaos, as he was about to clean up the ss, he suddenly found soone competing with him for control of his body, making him anxious to regain dominance. From that day on, Bai Jingwei and his family often vied with Yu Xiaoran for bodily dominance. Of course, the primary control remained with Yu Xiaoran, but each occurrence of this left him feeling weary and angry.
The Bai Family was truly despicable.
He couldn’t help but think of Bai Chen, finally understanding that kind of discomfort.
He also sent Yu Xingfan to prison without hesitation when he returned to stir up trouble.
"I heard Mr. Lu of the Lu Family lost his mory."
"The whole person beca strange. Though Lu Fengqiu now manages things without major issues, Mr. Lu occasionally causes minor troubles, leaving a considerable impact."
