Chapter 384 “The Excited Senior of the Lan House (1)”

There was a touch of embarrassment hovering over Nangong Yuan’s face. He knows, those words weren’t meant for his seventh son but rather it’s a warning to him.

“Grandmother,” looking up with his immature face, Nangong Zhun firmly replies to that request, “I understand. I will never be an ungrateful person in the future.”

Only with that promise did the old queen nod with satisfaction. But before she left, this granny didn’t forget to cast her grandson Nangong Yi (former crown prince) another final look.

As a grandmother she definitely held some emotions for her own flesh and blood, though it’s a generation’s apart, the terrible man was still her grandson. Nevertheless, she knew there was nothing she can do for him anymore.

“Someone come!” Once his mother the Dowager was gone, Nangong Yuan’s gaze promptly turned cold: “Take Nangong Yi away and put him in the dungeon to await disposal!”

As striking as that order was, the King’s word did not bring any emotional swing to the powerless prince because his eyes were still focused in on the direction of where Bai Yan left. He’s in too much pain and remorse right now to care. Pain at his own failure in life, remorse for not picking the right choice back then.

Currently inside the Bai House, Yu Rong (step-mother) was currently starring at the vanity mirror in front of herself and coming to terms with the fact that the aged woman there was in fact her and no one else.

“So I’ve turned old too…” Her lips indivertibly curved into a bittersweet smile as she rubbed her own belly.

Before, in order to add another male heir to the Bai House, she would go as far as to join with another man to conceive a child. But before her plan could come to fruition, the scheme was revealed by Bai Yan, thus causing her baby to die within the womb altogether.

Now for that moment of folly, it has become impossibly difficult for her to become pregnant again.
