“Mother, why did they come to see me?” Ning Yue asked.

“They said that your mother misses you. Look at you. Let’s go in and take a look first. I don’t want to talk to that group of people anymore. Your grandfather is about to die of anger,” Madam He said.

When Ning Yue heard this, she hurriedly ran in, only to find Qin Lin sitting in the hall, gesturing at the Ning family.

“What are you doing?” Ning Yue said coldly. She walked in step by step, like a demon from hell, exuding a cold aura. Qin Lin felt a wave of fear. She shrank back. “Yueyue, where did you go?”

As she was afraid, Qin Lin stammered and did not dare to look into Ning Yue’s eyes.

“Why? Why didn’t you inform us beforehand that you’re so free to visit our village?”

Ning Yue was very curious. Such a big thing had happened in the general’s residence. How could Qin Lin still come out?

According to the old lady’s personality, Qin Lin should have been drowned in a pig cage.

Or had Qin Lin escaped?

“I miss you and plan to visit you. Why do I have to tell you in advance when I visit my daughter?” At this point, Qin Lin straightened her back. She didn’t know that Ning Yue already knew the truth, yet she still treated herself as her biological mother.

“My mother is already dead. She should be lying in the ancestral grave of the Ning family now. Why? Has my mother been reincarnated?” Ning Yue made herself clear. She couldn’t be bothered to waste her breath on Qin Lin.

“You… you know everything?” Qin Lin was shocked. Ning Yue had clearly kept it a secret. How did she know?

“I know a lot of things. Tell me, why are you here?” Ning Yue asked.

“I, I…”

Qin Lin was about to say something when the sound of horse hooves outside the door interrupted their conversation.

“General Ning has arrived!”

When she heard these words, Qin Lin seemed to have heard something incredible. She hid under the table in fear.

Ning Feng dismounted majestically. He walked up to Old Master Ning and bowed.

When Old Master Ning heard the words ‘General’s Residence’, his anger dissipated.

“Why has General Ning come to our house?” Old Master Ning asked.

“I’m here to visit my daughter. I’m also here to catch a fugitive from the family,” General Ning said.

Ning Yue had just walked to the door when she heard Ning Feng’s words.

Seeing his daughter?

Ning Yue sneered. The arrest was real, but the visit to see his daughter was fake.

Seeing Ning Yue come out, Ning Feng hurriedly went forward to ask about her recent situation.

Ning Yue didn’t want to bother with them at all, but everyone was here, waiting to see what would happen. If she really showed impatience, those people might think that her grandfather hadn’t taught her well, and her grandfather’s reputation would be damaged.

“The person you’re looking for is inside.” Ning Yue pointed into the room.

“Yueyue, do you really have to be so distant with Father?” Ning Feng looked at Ning Yue. This was his daughter with his beloved wife. His beloved wife had died, but his daughter had distanced herself from him. His heart ached.

“I wouldn’t dare. You’re a general, and I’m just a farm girl. I don’t dare to curry favor with you. Please, the person you’re looking for is inside,” Ning Yue said.

“Father will definitely give you an explanation. Don’t worry.” With that, Ning Feng walked in.

He had promised Liu Yun that he would protect their daughter well. Back then, he had failed to do so due to a moment of carelessness. Now, his daughter had been bullied under his watch. As a father, he had to seek justice for his daughter!

Soon, Qin Lin’s scream could be heard. After a while, Ning Feng ordered someone to bring Qin Lin out.

“General, you’ve come a long way. Why don’t you have a meal at my house?” Old Master Ning said.

He was just joking. He did not expect this general to stay.

“I’ve embarrassed myself in front of everyone. There is a thief who escaped from the general’s residence last night. His crime is serious, so I won’t stay any longer.” With that, Ning Feng glanced at Ning Yue. “Yue Yue, the general’s residence will always be your home. If you want to come back and take a look, send someone to tell me. I’ll take you back.” With that, Ning Feng left with Qin Lin.

Ning Yue frowned as she watched Ning Feng leave. She felt that something was wrong.
