Chapter 2007: Chapter 2007: The Little Girl is Too Pitiful

Thinking about it, it might be better to just stay in this place and wait to die rather than go back and be unacknowledged by my family, and in the end, end up with a deeply wounded heart.

In the end, she didn’t want to face her family. In short, it was a feeling of dread that tormented her, as she neared her hometown.

However, when the old lady was eating the lotus seed cake, the mood of the people around was indescribable.

This wasn’t something brought from Liang Kingdom at all, it was clearly bought casually on the streets of Yunxia City previously. Their family’s matriarch could really boast without fear of the old lady discovering it.

"Little girl, with such a big group of you, what exactly are you here for?"

Though she was tasting the flavor of her longing homeland, the old lady still asked Lin Caisang, her suspicion clear.

"Ah."

Lin Caisang, startled by her question, sighed heavily.

"My family originally was a large clan, with many brothers in my father’s generation. Thus, my father was resented by his uncles, who drugged him and dumped him in the Illusion Continent.

I have been searching for many years, and finally, I came to the Illusion Continent, hoping to find my father and reunite our family.

Poor my mother, still alone at home, almost cried her eyes out when my father disappeared. We, as children, how could we bear it? We must find our father during our mother’s lifetime and reunite them."

As she spoke, she looked up secretly at the old lady and managed to squeeze a few tears from her eyes.

People: "..."

Has their family matriarch been possessed by a drama queen?

Her pathetic act was straight out of an innocent playbook, but the old lady really ate it up.

"It’s true, the little girl is too pitiable," the old lady sighed, shaking her head.

"When did your father come here? There aren’t many people who come from the barren lands here. There’s also White Blind Mountain, a dangerous place. I just happened to be able to come to Illusion Continent."

"My father came here several years ago. Because we came to find him, my mother even gave me the portrait of my father, which she had treasured for years. Sister, please see if you recognize this man here."

As she spoke, Lin Caisang took out a portrait of her father, which she had already drawn, from her small shoulder bag and handed it to the old lady.

This portrait was of her father when he was young, and he must have changed a lot by now, especially after being tormented for so many years, even the best people change.

But the general outline would remain the same.

"Oh, this portrait is really exquisite."

The old lady looked at the person in the portrait as if he were real, and her eyes immediately brightened.

"Wow, this portrait... looks just like new, it’s been really well preserved."

People: "..."

This is new indeed, surely just drawn by their family matriarch not long ago, but they wouldn’t expose that fact.

"Yes, my mother cherished my father’s painting so much that my brother and I, afraid of forgetting our father’s appearance, would secretly take a peek and touch it, and my mother would beat us several times."

Lin Caisang nodded repeatedly, echoing the old lady’s words.

"My father and mother had such a good relationship, it’s a pity that they were ruthlessly torn apart by those malicious people."
