Nalan Zhangqian was silent.
He was crying hard now. He wanted to leave home and never come back.
Nalan Jing hugged Dai’er. His fingers softly stroked the fading scars on her face.
“The scars on your face are recovering so much now.”
‘Even her intelligence is just like the children her age.’
Dai’er smiled happily. “Brother, my cousin gives me a kind of sweet water recently and it is very sweet. My scar heals so much after I drink it. My cousin is so good. But, Father is so stingy. He does even allow my cousin to eat that koi…”
“That’s right, Father is the most stingy person. Since she likes to drink fish soup so much, we’ll go and grab more koi and give them to Xiao Yin.”
Nalan Zhangqian was sad. “She not only cooked my koi but she had also burned my kitchen. We need money to repair the kitchen.”
Nalan Jing smiled softly. “It’s just a kitchen. Even if Xiao Yin burned the whole of General Manor, we can just use a little money to repair it. Why is Father always bullying her?”
Nalan Dai’er nodded vigorously. “Sister Xiao Yin is a nice person. Father, don’t you bully her.”
Nalan Zhangqian did not know what to say.
He was stunned.
Finally, he understood his father’s feelings.
‘The daughter whom I have brought up is siding with somebody else. That feeling is not just painful!
‘It’s devastating!’
Nalan Dai’er tugged at Nalan Jing’s sleeves. “Brother, I remember that Father has some other fishes. Since my cousin likes fish soup so much, then we’ll just cook them and bring them to her.”
Nalan Zhangqian was angry. ‘This daughter is doing harm to her own father!’
He felt that his fish could not escape that day…
“Alright.” Nalan Jing patted Nalan Dai’er’s head with great affection. “As you wish.”
Surely, the result of that was… that Feng Ruqing would drink so much fish soup that she would probably vomit. Then, she would become so afraid of fish soup that she would never drink it again.

At Supreme Princess Manor.
Feng Ruqing decided to look at the treasures in the storage bag since Nan Xian had gone out.
She was about to enter her room when an acquaintance came to the princess’s manor.
Feng Ruqing was slightly stunned when she saw the man who was wearing a mask in front of her. After a short while, there was a smile on her face.
“Jiu Ming, didn’t you go out to deal with some business? Why are you back?”
Feng Ruqing was grateful toward Paramount in her heart.
If the people from Paramount did not appear that day in the palace and stall some time for her, she might not have been able to save Feng Tianyu in time.
“Little girl, it’s been a while since we last met. Do you miss me?” Jiu Ming had an evil smile and that smile was deep.
Feng Ruqing’s smile disappeared. “No, get lost!”
‘If you just look at his eyes, that man is surely beautiful.
‘But, he is wearing a mask. Is there any scar on his face?
‘Why don’t I recommend some spirit herbal dishes for him?
‘The most expensive ones!’
“You said no and actually meant yes. It’s so saddening. But, it’s fine. My arms are always open to you.”
Feng Ruqing was speechless.
“But, I have some serious matters today.” The man’s smile was even more reckless.
Feng Ruqing stared at the man suspiciously. “You have come to meet me about… serious matters? Don’t tell me that you have hemorrhoids on your face and you want me to treat it for you?”
The man’s smile did not disappear. He approached Feng Ruqing and took two steps toward her.
“You’re making me angry. Do you just want to take a look at my face? I’m afraid that you might fall in love with me. Let’s forget about it.”
Feng Ruqing was slightly stunned. ‘This man is really more of a narcissist than the state preceptor.
‘In contrast, my state preceptor is much better.’
