Mu Yi froze. He listened to Mu Qingya and was silent for a short while.

‘Qingya is right. They are still sisters. Perhaps she will listen to Qingya?¹

But…

Thinking of Little Nine’s temper, Mu Yi had some headache again and rubbed his temples.

“Qingya, don’t go. Little Nine now has a grudge against me. I’m afraid it’s a bit hard to deal with her.”

Mu Qingya smiled and shook her head. “Father, don’t worry. I know what to do, and I won’t instigate a fight with my sister. After all, she is my sister and has suffered a lot of hardships over the years. So I should meet her.”

Looking at Mu Qingya, who was so understanding, Mu Yi felt an ache in his heart, and with a bitter smile, he patted Mu Qingya’s shoulder. “Qingya, I’m sorry. Little Nine has suffered a lot these years. I also want to do my part as a father to help her, but your grandmother, she…”

‘Mother hated Little Nine, so it is a little difficult to make her accept Little Nine.’

If Mu Qingya could help, maybe it would be much better…

Mu Qingya lowered her gaze, hiding the coldness within her eyes, and only after a long time did she let out a laugh.

“Father, don’t worry. Leave all these things to me. I’ll go talk to her on Grandmother’s behalf.”

Mu Yi smiled and nodded. “Alright…”

Perhaps he trusted Mu Qingya a lot. He did not say anything more, allowing her to meet Little Nine. Meanwhile, he went back to his manor to take care of Old Lady Mu.

At this moment, Princess Qingluo had not returned yet. Mu Qingya looked at Mu Yi’s departing figure, her eyes slightly sunk. She then turned around and left.

Her expression was calm, but deep in her eyes, it had hidden emotions that others could not read.

***

Inside the manor…

The Ninth Emperor raised her head and saw Dongfang Yu walking back with a bag of pastries smilingly. “Ninth Emperor, I’m back.”

“Well…” The Ninth Emperor raised her eyebrows and took the pastries that Dongfang Yu handed to her. She smiled and said, “You came back a little late this time.”

“Oh…” Dongfang Yu rubbed the back of her head, smiling brightly, “I met Old Lady Mu when I was on my way back.”

The Ninth Emperor was stunned and lowered her gaze.

“She bullied you?”.

Dongfang Yu shook her head. “No, she tried to, but I dodged, and she fell.”

“Oh…” The Ninth Emperor smiled calmly. “It’s good that she didn’t bully you.”

Dongfang Yu was stunned. She looked up at the Ninth Emperor and said, “Ninth Emperor… If I hit them… Would you… ”

“If you want to, then just do it.” The Ninth Emperor shrugged. “I do not have anything to do with those people, and they are not as important as you.”

‘They are not as important as you…’

These words warmed Dongfang Yu’s heart, and the smile on her face grew wider.

Nan Changfeng stood not far away. He heard that and looked at Dongfang Yu coldly.

He then slowly walked out and headed toward the Ninth Emperor smilingly.

His silver hair was so dazzling, with a vertical line between his eyebrows. He looked so stunning.
