Bab 315: Anguish

And looking at her father's dazed expressions, Mia told him what her mother asked her to inform him. 

Unlike what she thought, her father's condition was better than hers. He seemed to have regained his composure in an instant as if nothing much had happened. 

In the whole world, only her mother knew her father, the Emperor well and transparently. And Xiao Liuyue assumed that probably what her mother said was indeed a way to distract her father temporarily. 

Her mother was the legendary immortal nine-tailed fox but that curse caused her death. By the time her father was there, her body had turned into golden ashes which disappeared in the air as if the person never existed.

As heartbroken and lost as she was, Xiao Liuyue just locked herself in her room after her father left. 

She only came out around midnight wanting to check on her father. After she got a grip on her emotions, she realized that maybe he is putting on a tough front.
