225: Bai Meng's hidden life story

Undeniably, Gu Xiaoyue was startled by this pair of golden eyes belonging to White Gaze.

He originally had heterochromia!

Can eye color just change like that?

"Sister... don't look at me..."

White Gaze murmured, repeating his words to keep Gu Xiaoyue from looking at him.

His eyes were unfocused, and large drops of tears rolled down.

"Even if Sister saw it... can you please not be afraid of me... I beg you... don't be afraid of me... mmm..."

As White Gaze spoke, he closed his eyes, but the tears still flowed uncontrollably.

"Ah—"

Following a roar from White Gaze, two pairs of golden, translucent wings suddenly emerged from his back!

They were folded together like that, and Gu Xiaoyue couldn't tell what kind of wings they were.

White Gaze covered his eyes with both hands, curling his entire body into a ball.

Whether due to physical pain or because his heart was on the verge of collapse, his whole body trembled incessantly.

Outside the door, Butler Bart and Yang Jiarong were both knocking.

"Young Master, are you alright?"

"Mr. Gu, what happened to the Young Master?"

Sensing they were about to rush in, Gu Xiaoyue immediately shouted.

"It's nothing! White Gaze drank too much and is acting up. You all go away; I'll take care of him!"

Her words did not stop Butler Bart from pounding on the door.

"I must ensure the Young Master's health. Open the door, and let me take care of him!"

"I said I would take care of him! If you want to pack your bags and leave, then keep knocking!"

Gu Xiaoyue knew that White Gaze's current state could not be seen by others, and she was determined not to let Butler Bart in!

If he really broke in, she would immediately use a hallucination skill to make him hallucinate and ignore White Gaze's current condition!

However, Gu Xiaoyue's threatening words seemed to have worked, and Butler Bart stopped knocking.

He knew that Gu Xiaoyue indeed had the authority to make him leave!

"Very well, Mr. Gu. We will head down first. Call us if you need anything!"

Gu Xiaoyue listened to the footsteps of Butler Bart and Yang Jiarong, and it seemed they had left.

But she was not at ease; she summoned Little Black and, pulling White Gaze along, entered Little Black's hidden space.

"I'm sorry, Sister. I lied to you. Don't be afraid of me, and don't leave me..."

White Gaze murmured in a daze, as if he were drunk, his hands still tightly covering his eyes.

"Alright, alright, I'm not afraid, and I won't leave you!"

Gu Xiaoyue held White Gaze in her arms, softly coaxing and comforting him.

After tossing and turning until the second half of the night, White Gaze finally settled down and fell into a deep sleep.

Early the next morning, White Gaze was woken up by the sunlight.

He discovered he was still in Gu Xiaoyue's arms and couldn't help but blush.

Then he rolled his eyes and carefully observed the surrounding environment.

Although the space was not small, the facilities were very simple: a large bed, a sofa, a table, and a few chairs.

There seemed to be a few compartments on the side, piled with all sorts of things.

The food he had made for Sister last night was also sitting on the table.

This space was transparent and existed independently; he could see outside the space, which was Gu Xiaoyue's room.

How novel!

But why did Sister bring him into this space?

White Gaze reached out to touch his back; he vaguely remembered that he seemed to have revealed his true form last night!

His movement wasn't large, but it still woke Gu Xiaoyue up.

"Just how much did you drink last night? You kept me busy for half the night!"

Gu Xiaoyue, having just woken up, spoke with a sleepy tone, as if she were acting coquettishly toward White Gaze.

"Me? Kept you... busy for half the night?"

White Gaze's face flushed bright red instantly. He didn't know what he had drunk; could it be that he and Sister...

"No, what are you thinking? I meant you were drunk and acting crazy! Should I have just left you alone? I took care of you, which kept me busy for half the night!"

Gu Xiaoyue flicked White Gaze on the forehead. What was this little kid thinking about?

"Oh, oh, so that's how it is—"

White Gaze's eyes drifted, and his tone was full of disappointment.

He actually wished that the rice had been cooked into congee; wouldn't that mean Sister could stay with him forever?

Looking at White Gaze's restored eyes and seeing that the wings from last night had disappeared, Gu Xiaoyue let out a sigh of relief.

She hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she asked.

"White Gaze, do you really not know what you drank or ate last night? Last night you—"

Seeing her serious expression, White Gaze was stunned for a moment—so last night really wasn't a dream!

He had truly revealed his true form in front of Sister!

"I..."

He lowered his eyes, not daring to look into Gu Xiaoyue's eyes.

"Sister, if I tell you, can you promise not to leave me?"

The humility and pleading in his tone made Gu Xiaoyue's heart soften, but she still answered decisively.

"I cannot."

Gu Xiaoyue sighed, "White Gaze, I don't want to lie to you. You must know that some encounters are destined for separation, and neither of us can avoid it. But I can promise you that I won't change my opinion of you. You are still the same White Gaze who wholeheartedly helped and saved me when I couldn't move!"

Gu Xiaoyue's words made White Gaze lift his head and look her in the eyes.

"Sister, Bai Yao used to call me a half-breed, because—I really am a half-breed!"

He wiped away his tears fiercely and began to tell the part of his background he had hidden from Gu Xiaoyue.

It turned out that White Gaze's maternal grandmother was also a high-level Beastmaster.

Through a stroke of fate, she contracted a God-Rank Pet—the Thunder Winged Golden Peng.

A God-Rank Pet naturally possesses very high intelligence, and after its level increases, it reaches an even higher level.

White Gaze's grandmother then used a shaping flower to shape the Thunder Winged Golden Peng according to her own preferences.

Facing the face she liked all day long, over time, the human and the pet actually developed feelings for each other!

Eventually, they even tasted the forbidden fruit and had Zheng Jie!

Zheng Jie knew her own identity, but she couldn't resist the pursuit of Prince Yi Bai Jin Yi and eventually became his secondary consort.

Originally, her divine beast bloodline could be suppressed, but on the day she gave birth to White Gaze, the immense pain and the near-death experience of a difficult labor made it impossible for her bloodline to be suppressed. Her eyes turned golden, and three pairs of golden wings actually sprouted from her back!

By the time White Gaze reached this point, his face was already covered in tears.

He asked with a tone of grievance and ingratiation.

"Sister, now that you know everything, you won't despise me, right?"

Gu Xiaoyue blinked; she was afraid that her eyes might reveal pity for White Gaze, which was definitely not what he wanted!

She raised her hand to stroke White Gaze's head and said gently.

"Of course not. This is not your fault—no, this is not anyone's fault. However, didn't you say before that your mother died during childbirth? How do you know all of this?"

"The bloodline of the Thunder Winged Golden Peng has three generations of inherited memories. When I was young, there was a time when Bai Shengrui bullied me severely, and I awakened once..."

Gu Xiaoyue nodded in understanding; so this was the real reason why Prince Yi Bai Jin Yi sent him away.

Poor White Gaze had grown up all alone since he was little. He craved fatherly love, motherly love, family, and friendship.

Humans are social animals, even if he had other bloodlines in him.

Although Uncle Sang would take care of him a little, due to his status, he ultimately had to keep his distance.

That was why White Gaze was so clingy to Gu Xiaoyue, fearing that she would know everything and that he would be abandoned again!
