Bigshot's Sweetie Is a Cat!-Chapter 1078: I Won’t Sneak Out Anymore

"You’ve never gone on a long journey alone before, and this time you’ve been gone for over half a year. Do you know how worried everyone has been about you? We’re afraid you’d suffer or freeze, and if you were bullied or something happened... Our Cat Demon Clan has only you as a princess. If anything happened to you, how could we face your parents who died in battle?"

"I..." Wen Xiao’ai listened to the words of concern, looking at each familiar face showing care for her, and the tears she held back all the way suddenly surged. Her small mouth trembled, almost crying.

"What’s the matter? Were you wronged? Huh?"

"Little Princess, did someone bully you?" Seeing Wen Xiao’ai looking aggrieved and about to cry, several elders began to get anxious about her.

Though unsure about other Demon Clans, the Cat Demon Clan was certainly the most united and loving.

Clan members were as close as family.

Their concern made Wen Xiao’ai feel even worse, with tears spinning in her eyes.

"What’s the matter, child?" Elder Ye saw this and hurried to inquire. He had long regarded Wen Xiao’ai as his daughter-in-law.

"No, no one bullied me..."

"...I won’t run out recklessly anymore." Wen Xiao’ai sniffled as she uttered this.

"It’s good you weren’t bullied. You scared us to death, it’s okay, it’s okay, as long as you’re back." Several elders were relieved to hear this.

"Fortunately, Little Princess, you ran away this time; otherwise, you wouldn’t have escaped disaster." An elder expressed his relief.

Wen Xiao’ai was protective and strong, couldn’t bear being bullied, especially couldn’t stand seeing others around her bullied. In that situation, if Wen Xiao’ai had been there, she would have fought against the Demon Clan at all costs.

"Right, Little Princess, where did you go these past six months? How did you get by? Who took care of you?" Wen Xiao’ai was a clan princess, always served by others since birth, never needed to care for herself.

She had disappeared for half a year, and they worried she couldn’t take care of herself. Yet upon her return, she seemed even more radiant than before.

"I went to the Human Realm and met a... particularly good person; he took care of me these past few months." As she mentioned Jun Moyan, Wen Xiao’ai’s already upset heart grew even more indescribably heavy.

Feng Liyan glanced at Wen Xiao’ai, just in time to see her quickly wiping away tears, feeling a mix of heartache and helplessness.

"Is that so? We should really thank this person." An elder remarked.

Wen Xiao’ai sniffled, suddenly remembering something and hurriedly asked, "By the way, where is my Clan Leader granny?"

"The Clan Leader..." At the mention of the Clan Leader, several faces turned gloomy, some sighed, others worried.

"What happened to Clan Leader granny?" Their expressions frightened Wen Xiao’ai.

"It’s okay, don’t worry, Little Princess. The Clan Leader is within the clan. But she got seriously injured protecting the children of the clan and has been recuperating in the Rotating Sound Hall without coming out since her return." An elder quickly explained and reassured.

"Is it that serious? Why does she need to retreat for healing?" Overnight, learning of the clan’s destruction and the casualty of clan members, the inexperienced Wen Xiao’ai couldn’t bear it.

"Don’t worry, she’ll be fine."

Beyond this comforting phrase, the elders didn’t know how else to console her.

The Clan Leader’s condition was indeed very dire.

"I want to see her."
