42 The State Preceptor Was More Important Ii (1/2)

Naturally, Lady Nalan was more than happy if Feng Ruqing was truly sincere and treated Nalan Dai'er with all her heart. However, Lady Nalan was afraid that Feng Ruqing was just messing around with Nalan Dai'er out of boredom.

Nalan Dai'er was naïve and had a pure heart. She had even put all the wrongdoings that Feng Ruqing did to her out of her mind. Moving forward, Lady Nalan must keep an eye on Nalan Dai'er and never let her walk out of the manor so Feng Ruqing could never get close to her.

”Tell the general that Dai'er is back but don't tell him anything about Feng Ruqing.” Lady Nalan lowered her eyes. Feng Ruqing had wholly broken the general's heart. Whenever he heard of Feng Ruqing's name, his sorrow grew even more profound.

Hence, Lady Nalan did not want the general to know that it was Feng Ruqing who had brought Nalan Dai'er back. Her father had suffered a great deal of grievances because of Feng Ruqing. She did not want the general to follow in his father's path.

”At your command, Lady.” The guard cupped his hands in a salute.

As Nalan Dai'er had returned to the general's manor safe and sound, it did not make a great stir in the kingdom. However, the guards in the general'a manor were greatly increased and even the back door was closely guarded to prevent Nalan Dai'er from sneaking out of the manor again.

At the crack of dawn, Nalan Zhangqian pushed opened the door and walked out of the study. He seemed to have not slept through the night as fatigue was engraved on his worn face.

Suddenly, a sweetie pie came into sight in the distance. Seeing Dai'er, Nalan Zhangqian broke into a wide smile.

”Dai'er, why are you here?”

”I miss you, daddy. I brought you a fruit,” Dai'er said softly with a smile of pure joy.

Seeing Dai'er, Nalan Zhangqian's heart melted, his eyes filled up with tenderness.
