"Mu Liu, you don't understand," Su Liu sighed.

“What’s there to understand or not understand?” Ning Muliu frowned. “Mother, are you being paranoid and suspicious of Father again?”

He simply couldn't understand his mother's thoughts.

Even though her father treats her so well, she's always suspicious.

A few days ago, a maid was sent to the estate simply for serving her father an extra cup of tea.

They even forced them into marriage.

He was assigned to a lame man in the village.

His mother said it was because the cripple had done something good that he was rewarded with a wife.

However, he had no recollection of any merit the cripple had ever achieved.

She even wanted to arrange a marriage between Yu Mianmian, the holy maiden of their demonic sect.

Who is Yu Mianmian?

Her grandfather was a veteran of three reigns in their demonic sect.

Even his father, the cult leader, had to give him some face, let alone his mother, the cult leader's wife.

Even if someone wants to marry Mianmian at will, they still need to ask for Mianmian's grandfather's opinion.

Thinking of the cold look in Yu Mianmian's grandfather's eyes when he looked at his mother, Ning Muliu felt a chill run down her spine.

Grandpa Yu Mianmian is a true master.

His strength is even greater than his father's.

How dare his mother offend such a person?

The atmosphere at the time was incredibly awkward.

Of course, his father later stepped in to smooth things over.

Fortunately, Yu Mianmian has a good temperament and doesn't argue with her mother; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"I only wanted to think about it because I saw that Mianmian was single."

"She has a grandfather; she doesn't need you to worry about her."

Ning Tianxing was genuinely angry that time, and he sneered, "Don't worry, I'm so much older than her, there's no way I could be with Yu Mianmian. She's like my own daughter." Besides, even if he really liked her, he would have to see if she would even like him back.

He didn't want to fight with her grandfather.

Are you angry with your mother too?

She didn't do it on purpose.

After all, Yu Mianmian is so beautiful and her status is a good match for Ning Tianxing, so she was naturally worried.

Despite her age, Ning Tianxing is even more popular with the maids than her son.

She had overheard the maids discussing Ning Tianxing more than once.

"Why am I angry?" Ning Muliu really didn't know how to comfort his mother.

She always suspected her father of being disloyal to her, but wasn't his name the best proof?

She clearly had a winning hand, but she always seemed very nervous.

If this continues, even if he's the father, he'll eventually get fed up.

Yu Mianmian was eavesdropping on the mother and son's conversation from the rooftop. She knew Su Liu didn't like her and was wondering why. It turned out to be because of this.

She suspected that she was having an affair with Uncle Ning.

This person is unbelievable; I suspect she's almost as bad as Ning Muliu.

That makes sense, though. They're about the same age, and to outsiders, they're a good match. So it's quite normal for them to be together.

"Hey, how's it going up there?" Ning Yu's voice rang out in the courtyard. Yu Mianmian turned around and met her gaze.

She smiled and gracefully descended from above.

"I've heard enough."

"So what do you want?"

Ning Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of ruthlessness surged within them, just like Su Liu's.

“Eavesdropping on the sect leader’s words is tantamount to betrayal.” Ning Yu gritted her teeth, flicked her wrist, and drew her hidden sword. She twirled the sword and attacked Yu Mianmian directly.

Su Liu and Ning Muliu naturally heard the commotion as well.

They rushed out and saw Ning Yu and Yu Mianmian fighting together.

Ning Yu is exceptionally talented, but Yu Mianmian is a freak. Ning Yu is no match for her.

Before long, the sword was knocked away, and a short blade was placed against her neck.

With just a flick of her wrist, Ning Yu, this woman, will vanish completely from this world.

"Yu Mianmian, do you dare?"

Why wouldn't I dare?

"If you dare to hurt Ning Yu, there will be no possibility between us anymore," Ning Muliu said coldly.

Upon hearing this, Yu Mianmian chuckled.

"Oh, I just said it casually, and you believed me. It's okay, if you don't like it, then you don't like it."

Yu Mianmian laughed so hard that even the injured knife trembled.

In a moment of carelessness, he slashed her neck.

"Ahhh—you dare, you dare!" Ning Yu cried out nervously, "You dare to hurt me, you shameless slut! All these years you've been bullying us in the Ning family because of our kindness, you slut!"

Ning Yu suddenly shouted.

She should have been a saint, but there's this woman blocking the way above her.

She was saddened to think that the position that should have belonged to her had been taken by someone else.

Ning Yu felt a tightness in her chest.

The cult leader's daughter was originally exceptionally talented and a candidate for sainthood, but unfortunately, Yu Mianmian was chosen instead.

These people have always disliked Yu Tong.

Yu Tong is Yu Mianmian's grandfather and one of the three elders of the Demonic Sect.

Ning Yu was unaware that these people had deliberately said these things when she passed by.

Yu Mianmian was able to become a saintess because of her outstanding martial arts skills.

She could even fight the cult leader.

Of course, the odds are even.

I'm not entirely sure yet.

However, Ning Yu kept these words in mind after hearing them.

Within the Demonic Sect, her father's words carried the most weight, followed by the Holy Maiden, and then the three elders.

Ning Yu has always held a grudge about this.
