The senior did not answer Gu Ya’s words, however, his heart has already made a decision…


  “Gu Lao, I want to go to the Monarch Manor again.” The lady suddenly says as she bit her lip.

  “Miss, the people of the Monarch Manor have treated you so poorly, why are you insisting on letting them insult you again?” Senior Gu Lao frowns with troubled confusion.

  In his eye, a woman like Gu Ya needs love, while those people would only bring her shame and nothing else. Therefore, he’s absolutely reluctant to let her go again.

  “Now that the monarch is no longer at the estate no one will dare to stop me since I have the status as his benefactor. Before I couldn’t get a chance to learn of Ling Yan’s mother because of Butterfly’s interference, now I must use the opening to figure out her personality before Heavenly returns!”


  That woman… there is a good chance that she will become my enemy. If I wish to overcome this foe, I must get all the details and information beforehand!

  Gu Lao didn’t like where this was headed and furrowed up his forehead. Despite his internal turmoil about the idea, he didn’t object to the request since he knows any persuasion would be futile.

  ……


  The Monarch Manor.

  Inside the peaceful courtyard where the mother and daughter sat quietly on the pavilion, Bai Yan gently caresses the pipsqueak’s hair, which drew a very relaxed and lovely face from the child.

  “Mother, let me tell you something, you mustn’t get angry afterwards, okay?”


  “What’s the matter?”


  “That is…” Ling Yan wiggles her body like a troubled maiden, “Grandpapa wants to let his grandson meet me, but Big Brother said I mustn’t get close to any men. If the time comes that Grandpapa brings his grandson, you must help me explain to them why and not because I am not willing…”


  That brought a raised eyebrow to the demon queen. Definitely, the mother wanted to press for more details but kept it in to let the baby continue.

  “So…” the pipsqueak raises her head then to meet Bai Yan’s, “Can you make Big Brother and Father not break their leg?”


  The men in the family only listens to Mother. If Mother opens her mouth then they will definitely listen.

  A smirking grin finally filled the demon queen’s face: “And why is that?”


  “Because Grandpapa is not a bad man, therefore his grandson is certainly not a bad man either…”


  The mind of a child remains relatively simple, even if they are clever like Di Ling Yan’s, they are still confined to the boundaries of their age and couldn’t go behind the first step in their thought patterns.

  “As long as they don’t hurt you Sweetie, anything is fine with me. Besides, your father and brothers won’t just hurt anyone randomly, you don’t need to fret about that point.” Chuckling, Bai Yan pulls her daughter into a hearty hug due to how silly her woes are.

  It’s just that… now that they’re speaking about that troublesome pair of boys, Bai Yan’s heart was starting to miss them a little.

  But if they are to leave this domain, the only option would likely lie with Heavenly Flame himself. Only he could help them leave this place since he’s the one who created the world in the first place.

  Flashing with brightness in those little eyes, the pipsqueak gets all hopeful: “Really? How come Ling Yan feel like they won’t let anyone get close to me? It’s like they don’t care if they are coming with malicious intent or not either…”
