Chapter 216: Little Witch

Translator: Henyee Translations      Editor: Henyee Translations

The members of the Gu family were very fast. They contacted the embassy in Country Y and requested a divorce between Cheng Xi and Devon, but Devon refused.

Although Devon had already lost the ability to use spells, he was still unwilling to let Cheng Xi go after recovering. He even said that the Gu family had forcefully taken Cheng Xi away.

In terms of magic, Yunbao could help, but in terms of law, Yunbao was helpless. She innocently asked, “If he doesn’t agree, they can’t get divorced?”

“Marriage is a matter between two people, so a divorce has to be agreed by both parties,” Xiao Jing explained to his daughter. “Although one party can also file for a divorce, this situation requires a long time to file a lawsuit.”

“That law is really strange. That person clearly doesn’t treat Auntie Cheng and Sister Lily well. Why does he have to agree to a divorce?” Yunbao couldn’t understand.

Gu Yu’s eyes lit up. “If we can give evidence that he abused his wife, we should be able to get a divorce.”

When Cheng Xi heard this, she shook her head and said, “He pretends especially well in front of outsiders. Everyone thinks that he’s a good person. Moreover, even if we get hit, our wounds will be covered by spells. There’s no evidence to show at all.”

Hearing Cheng Xi’s words, they fell into a deadlock again. Gu family and the others didn’t have a good solution. Although Gu family had monstrous power in the capital, this was a transnational case after all. They couldn’t influence the government of Country Y.

Cheng Xi sat on the sofa and hugged Lily. She did not go home but lived in the Gu residence. She only felt at ease by Gu Teng and Yunbao’s side, but she had already told her family about her divorce.

Lily had escaped Devon’s control and looked much better. She had been eating desperately during meal time. If Cheng Xi had not stopped her, she would have burst.

Yunbao and Gu Zi liked to play with Lily because to them, Lily was like a Barbie doll.

Lily might be of mixed blood, but she was more Western in appearance. Her watery blue eyes, her high high nose, and her golden-brown hair glowed gold in the sun.

Yunbao walked to Lily’s side and played with her. Cheng Xi smiled and said, “I really don’t dare to think about such days. Sometimes, when I wake up in my dreams, I think I’m still beside Devon.”

Gu Teng held her hand and said, “It’s all in the past. Even if the lawsuit takes a long time, I won’t let that person see you.”

This was also the reason why Gu Teng asked Cheng Xi to stay in the Gu residence. No matter how arrogant Devon was, he couldn’t break into the Gu residence. As one of the top three aristocratic families in the capital, they had such confidence.

Even though Lily had just escaped from her father, she was still a

five-year-old child. She quickly played happily with Yunbao. Just as the two of them were chasing each other, Lily anxiously reached out to grab Yunbao.

Then, a ray of light flew out uncontrollably. Fortunately, the glutinous rice ball rushed out to block it. Otherwise, this ray of light would have hurt Yunbao.

Realizing what she had done, Lily looked at her hand in disbelief and ran back to Cheng Xi’s side. She cried and said, “Mom, I think I’m sick.”

Yunbao, on the other hand, was not frightened at all. She even asked Glutinous Rice Ball with interest, and the answer she received was, “Although it’s a spell, it’s not aggressive.”

After getting Glutinous Rice Ball’s answer, Yunbao walked towards Lily, but Lily kept retreating. “Don’t come over. I’m afraid I’ll hurt you. I didn’t do it on purpose just now.”

With that, Lily began to cry. “Will I become like Daddy in the future?” she asked.

If it had to be said that the person Lily feared the most was Devon, she would

never be able to accept that she had become Devon.

Cheng Xi didn’t know how to comfort her daughter. She didn’t know why her daughter had changed.

Yunbao walked over to comfort her. “It’s not Sister Lily’s fault. It’s because you inherited the bloodline of a wizard. As long as you study hard, you can become an outstanding witch. Yunbao can also use spells, but I won’t hurt good people.”

Hearing Yunbao say this, Lily stopped crying and asked, “Will I really not become like Daddy?”

Yunbao nodded and said, “A witch’s future can only be controlled by herself, just like how I will definitely become a good witch.”

Looking at Yunbao’s confidence, Lily was not so afraid anymore. Even if she could use magic, she would not become like her father. She could also use magic to save people like Yunbao..
