Yo guys, sorry for the late-ish update. My father made me drive places. This is a short update, but it's ok because I'll post the beginning of the next chapter tomorrow. Stay tuned. -Miss Q
P.S. Thanks again for all the comments!
Edit: I forgot to mention this but the new character in this part (Lady Lian Fang Yi) is not related to Dong Yi, she's from a different house, just the names are really similar.... Dong Yi is from the Fang House, while Lian Dong Yi is of the Lian House. And just in case, Dong Fang Ling is from Dong House/ Dong Fang House, though it is spelt the same in English, the characters in Chinese are different. Yep.
In China, last names comes first.
Chapter Two (Part 3)
Dong Fang Ling’s response was a vigorous, yet smooth laughter, his handsome face was even more remarkable because of his smile. Unintentional, Bing’er could not help but indulge in his hearty laughter, she did not stop looking at him until the he gradually stopped, until she finally realised what she was doing, her face looked down to cover the red colors of her cheeks.
"Let us not continue to talk about me, how is Fang Lao Furen (Old Madam Fang)?"
Fang Yi's face emerged with worry, his knitted brows furrowed, with no mood for casual chit chat, especially as other party had no hint sympatheticness.
"She has gone to the Ning Temple, she intended to stay for a period of time, to pray Buddha’s mercy."
Dong Fang Ling’s face stiffened, he did not know how to reply, this matter has plagued these two people for a full sixteen years.
"We have been searching for sixteen years; with no lead, but be it as long as there is a glimmer of hope, we will never give up looking for the whereabouts of Chu Chu. And as Chu Chu’s fiance, I hope you can wait a few more years." At his words, Bing-er’s shocked eyes lifted watching the two men.
He looked at the silent Dong Fang Ling, Fang Yi as a brother gave a selfish plea.
"I'm sorry, but the deadline is this year, I will wait no longer."
Cold words were spat out ruthlessly, for this marriage arrangement, he had no say to it. And after waiting for so many years, in fact, was to only follow through with the will of his late father. This year he will become 25, just after this year, he will be free to choose the woman he wants to marry.
Dong Fang Lao Ye had arranged marriages for all four of his sons, but had promised when the son had reached the age of twenty-five, if the woman from the arrangement did not appear for the marriage, then it will be dropped.
Fang Yi’s face slightly changed and stared at him for a long time, sigh: "Of course, if Chu Chu does not ever appear, then you will have waited in vain, which would be unjust. If you and Chu Chu are fated to be, then let the Heavens set your course. "
The two Masters both held high government ranks, they both later resigned due to old age and settled in the city of Luoyang. Fang Lao Ye quickly had her daughter to be betrothed to the eldest son of Dong Fang, to let the two house mutually benefit. . Unexpectedly, during the Full Moon Banquet, Chu Chu was secretly taken away by a mentally unstable maid, her whereabouts are still unknown. Fang Lao Furen’s waited anxiously. But for almost two decades, not only the government but even the Fang House has sent people to find her, but it was all in vain.
"It is late, I must say goodbye." Today’s persuasion did not succeed, but to avoid conflict that can damage this relationship, it is best to retire .
