Chapter 62: Counterattack (2/2)
Thinking of their bright future, Madam Zhang almost leaned on An Yipei’s body, her face full of sincere and submissive smile.
An Lingshan came up also in smile before echoing her mother in a hurry, “Perhaps, elder sister made the mistake by accident. Please forgive her, daddy.” It was heard that An Rushuang missed Princess Mingxi’s last flower enjoyment feast due to her foolishness in enjoying flowers at Anyang’s banquet instead.
This time Princess Mingxi invited both of the two girls in An family, so An Rushuang must follow her order. An Lingshan was just waiting to see her elder sister in trouble!
Exhorted by Madam Zhang and An Lingshan in their soft and gentle voice, An Yipei turned calm gradually. Seeing An Rushuang’s unchanging stubbornness, he snorted before ordering, “Zhong Yi, go to Liuxi Pavilion and fetch Princess Mingxi’s invitation here! When you go to the royal palace the day after tomorrow, ask me for the invitation, in case Rushuang forget it.”
Obviously, he wanted An Rushuang to admit her mistake.
However, lowering her head, An Rushuang kept silent but snorted in her heart. You want the invitation? What a joke!
Before long, Zhong Yi came back with nothing in his hand.
“Lord, Nanny Liu said there is no invitation at Liuxi Pavilion.”
It was universally known that Nanny Liu, a heavily sick old woman, was guarding at the entrance. No one dared to break into it.
An Yipei glared at An Rushuang. “Rascal, what do you mean by that? Can’t I dismiss the servant at Liuxi Pavilion?!”
He still remembered vividly she contradicted him for Nanny Liu, who became her shield again today. Did she really think he would forgive the evil old woman one more time just because of the little sense of guilty?!
Since Lingshan moved here, Rushuang became more and more weird, totally forgetting the demeanor for a noble lady. Where did that gentle and kind daughter go?
“Lord, Rushuang didn’t do that intentionally...” Lady An, very upset, urged her daughter to explain, “Say something! Why did you do that? Tell your father frankly!”
An Rushuang, her eyes slightly reddening, looked up at An Yipei before murmuring, “I would like to tell you, but would you believe?” She smiled before adding, “Maybe you will think I am arguing for myself!”
An Yipei snorted. “Although I am getting old, I am still able to tell the difference between the lie and truth!”
He would like to hear what she was going to say!
Glancing at An Rushuang, An Lingshan curled her lips slightly. Explain? Holding the trump card in her sleeve, An Lingshan made sure that An Rushuang was doomed to fail!
“The invitation is not at Liuxi Pavilion...”
An Rushuang caught a glimpse of the girl in white behind her father before sighing, “because I have sent it to my little sister earlier.”
