C100 (1/2)
As the younger brother of the current Son of Heaven and the vassal lord of the sixteen prefectures, no one dared to scold him like this. Anger was about to erupt from his heart, but it was suppressed by him and turned into a kind smile. He cupped his hands towards Luo Tianhe and said, ”Old General, it's not convenient for me to meddle in your matters, so I'll take my leave first.”
Finished speaking, he turned around with a dark expression and left the Moon King Manor. As he passed by Luo Lingwei, he gave her a complicated look.
When the quarrel between Luo Lingwei and Luo Tianhe began, a group of servants tactfully left the reception hall. Nightingale was in the dark, quietly observing everything in the drawing room.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the living room seemed to have frozen, and the oppressive atmosphere made people feel suffocated. After ten minutes of silence, Luo Tianhe was the first to speak.
”Father came here today to bring Bao Qin Wang to visit. He also came here to apologize.” Luo Tianhe's tone was stiff. With a strange expression, he said, ”Father has already taught Ling Xiao a lesson, and warned Duke Bao and … ”And the empress, nothing like this will ever happen again.”
After Luo Lingwei heard what Luo Tianhe had to say, she secretly let out a sigh of relief. It seemed like she had been right to go to the General's Estate to cause a ruckus. Although Luo Tianhe was only an old general, not an important minister or an elder of the royal clan, he was still a general with a powerful force. That was why he was able to use such a scheme.
As long as he had Luo Tianhe's warning, although he did not expect Ye Feian and the others to behave themselves, it would be enough for them to rest for a period of time. However, it was unknown how long he would be able to enjoy a peaceful life.
However, at this time, Luo Lingwei's mind was completely blank. She immediately blurted out a few words, scaring Luo Lingwei to the point where her own eyes were wide open.
”I don't know what the old general means, but it's getting late today. I still have some work to do, so I haven't finished yet. The old general, please go back. Your daughter is still waiting for you at home.”
These words were like the last straw that broke a camel's back. The radiance in Luo Tianhe's eyes dimmed as if he had aged more than ten years.
Luo Tianhe slowly lifted his feet. After so many years, Luo Tianhe once again felt that his steps were extremely heavy and powerless. He remembered the last time he had taken such steps, it was in the famine that he had lost all his loved ones. And now that he had lost another family member, Luo Tianhe knew that from today onwards, this woman named Luo Lingwei would no longer be his daughter.
After Luo Tianhe left, Ye Lianhe walked out from the shadows. He looked at Luo Lingwei, not knowing what to say. Just now, Luo Tianhe was clearly apologizing to Luo Lingwei. It was a good opportunity for her to pull this old general, who was holding an important military force, to her side.
Ye Lianhe looked at Luo Lingwei's slightly pale face. His eyes, which had been brimming with energy in the past, now appeared somewhat dull. In front of him, it was as if Luo Lingwei had become a completely different person. She just stood there blankly. Ye Lianhe knew that this crazy girl had had a hard time before, so she was not only strong, but also very stubborn. However, it was this stubbornness that caused her to make many impulsive decisions.
”Crazy …” Just as Ye Lianhe was about to speak, Luo Lingwei interrupted him.
”I know what you're going to say. It was indeed an opportunity just now, but I can't forgive them for what they did. I hope you can understand me.” Luo Lingwei looked at Ye Lianhe with ice-cold eyes. Ye Lianhe couldn't help but feel a chill in his back. He had never seen such a cold gaze on Luo Lingwei's face before.
