Bi Yu did so out of selfishness, didn't the Duke Protector like this girl? If he could marry her, then their second wife would have a higher possibility of inheriting the Duke's residence. Bi Chi naturally understood what Bi Yu was thinking and immediately found Shui Qinan pleasing to the eye. This lady had the eyes of the protector of the nation, marrying Bi Chi was not impossible, in the future, she would definitely have a stable position in the family.
”What do I like? I like it when you get out of my sight. ” Shui Qinan said mercilessly. She nodded towards the Protector of the Kingdom, bade her farewells to the Duke, then turned and left, with Nangong Jin following closely behind.
”Father!” Look at that little slut who doesn't know what's good for herself! See how I'll deal with her! ” Bi Yu shouted in anger.
The Imperial Protector moved a plate over and Bi Chi was barely able to avoid it. He looked at the Imperial Protector in a sorry state: ”Grandfather, what are you doing?”
”That's right. Father, what are you doing?” Bi Chi said with dissatisfaction.
The Imperial Protector sneered and said, ”Don't think that I don't know what you guys are thinking. It would be better to put it away as soon as possible. Spring Orchid will withdraw from the meal.”
The protector of the nation turned around and left, he did not see how malicious Bi Chi's eyes were behind his back.
Early in the morning the next day, a grey-clothed servant came to Nangong Jin's residence with a flustered expression. He said that he was looking for Nangong Jin because he had urgent matters to attend to.
”Why are you so flustered? What business do you have with Young Master?” Nangong Jin's butler stopped them with a dignified face. He did not have a good impression of the people from the Duke Protector's Estate, so he did not have that kind of good-natured smile on his face.
”Hurry up and report to Young Master Nangong, the Patriarch is in a relapse. Please bring Miss Shui here as soon as possible!” The manservant did not care about the butler, who was clearly hostile towards him. However, this Young Master Sun who had another surname might not even be able to become Patriarch in the future! The manservant made his report, then turned around and left. When the steward heard the purpose of the servant's visit, he knew that the situation was serious and hurriedly informed the young master.
Shui Qinan woke up early in the morning and ate breakfast leisurely for the Inner hall and Nangong Jin. Seeing that the butler had lost all of his usual dignity and calmness, Shui Qinan only glanced at him once before retracting his gaze, and looked at the white porcelain spoon in his hand, which was casually stirring the exquisite and elegant porridge bowl.
Seeing the butler's surprise, Nangong Jin felt uneasy: ”What exactly does the butler want?”
When the butler entered the inner hall, he bowed to Nangong Jin and the others. Then, he looked at Nangong Jin and panted slightly, ”Young master, someone had just come from the main house.
”What!” Hearing the butler's words, Nangong Jin was so shocked that he forgot about etiquette. The spoon in his hand landed on the bowl of porridge and made an impolite noise.
Shui Qinan frowned slightly as she looked at the spoon that made a sound while falling on the bowl. She was not affected in the slightest by Nangong Jin's shock as she continued to eat her breakfast.
”Prepare the car!”
The butler saw that Nangong Jin's face was anxious, and knew that he was extremely concerned about the Heavenly Imperial Protector, but the people in the mansion were not kind people. ” Young master, please calm down … ”…”
”Prepare the car!” Nangong Jin was completely focused on his grandfather, and simply could not listen to any other warnings. Shui Qinan put down the spoon in her hand and raised her head to look at the pair of master and servant in front of him.
