When Granny Feng came out, she saw her general peeking around at the door.

Granny Feng smiled knowingly, then went out and closed the door.

When Yun's father noticed that Granny Feng had come out, he had already turned his gaze away and stared at the sky.

Granny Feng covered the smile on her lips and said in a low voice, "Madam has just taken her medicine and is already asleep. Lord Marquis, you don't need to worry. Even for the sake of Miss and Young Master, Madam will definitely get better soon."

Yun's father glanced at Granny Feng and said with some dissatisfaction, "Can't you do it for me, the general?"

Granny Feng was taken aback. Was the general jealous?

By the time Granny Feng realized what was happening and wanted to explain, the general had already left.

In order not to disturb Yunmu who was resting inside, Granny Feng gave up on explaining and took Cuixin and Cuizhi away.

Yun's father turned around and went to Yun Yiyi's courtyard. Standing at the gate, he paced back and forth.

Thinking of the information he had found out, he really wanted to rush over and beat this rebellious daughter to death.

Over the years, he and his wife have carefully taught her, and she has always been very well-behaved. How did she turn into such a shameless and immoral girl?

This has truly disgraced the General's Mansion.

After thinking it over and over, Yun's father finally couldn't resist and rushed in.

Earlier, when Yun's father was walking this way, Yun Yiyi's maid had already rushed into the house to report.

"Oh no, Miss! The General is coming towards our courtyard!" The maid rushed in, knelt on the ground, and said in a panic.

Upon closer inspection, the maid's body was still trembling slightly.

She was terrified that the general would find out what happened today. If he did, she would be sold off like the maids before her.

She was born into a family and was sent to work as a laborer on a farm outside the village for making a small mistake.

Now that she finally has a chance to return to the General's Mansion, she really doesn't want to be sold off.

Yun Yiyi was startled, and her expression changed.

He hurriedly asked, "How does Father look?"

The maidservant asked tremblingly, "Miss, the general's face is gloomy, and he seems very angry."

Then she muttered to herself, "I heard from the kitchen staff that the lady has finally agreed to take her medicine. This should be a very happy thing, so why is the general still so angry? Could it be...?"

The maid realized a possibility, her face changed drastically, and she immediately lowered her head.

He knelt on the ground, his body trembling like a sieve.

Yun Yiyi felt a little flustered.

Does Father already know that I went out today?

That shouldn't be the case...

She had already bribed the doorman, so how could anyone else know?

Could it be someone from Mother's side?

It definitely is!

Damn it, if she finds out who reported me, she'll make that bitch wish she were dead.

Yun Yiyi's eyes flashed with malice. "Go and find out who leaked this information."

No sooner had Yun Yiyi finished speaking than the door was kicked open.

"You dare to do it yourself, but you don't dare to let others talk about it?"

Yun's father stood at the door, looking angrily at Yun Yiyi sitting at the table inside the room.

Yun Yiyi's face turned pale, and she hurriedly stood up and bowed.

She smiled ingratiatingly, "Your daughter greets Father. It's so late, why aren't you asleep yet?"

Yun's father snorted coldly, "Are you questioning this general?"

Yun Yiyi felt panicked when she heard the last three words.

Father has never spoken to me in this tone before. Could it be that he has really been so angry that he has lost his mind?

"Father, you've misunderstood. How could I dare to question you?" Yun Yiyi explained, feeling wronged.

Yun's father gave a sarcastic smile, "Are you afraid or unable? Such a grown man, yet you have no sense of propriety at all."

Yun Yiyi's heart skipped a beat, and she forced a smile as she asked, "Father, has something happened? Why did you suddenly come to my room and get so angry?"

Yun's father looked at Yun Yiyi coldly.

At this moment, he couldn't find that familiar figure in his memory of his daughter.

He truly never understood this daughter.

"Ha, don't you know what you've done?" Yun's father asked coldly.

Yun Yiyi was extremely flustered, but then she thought that he might not know about today's events, and might just be here to offer some advice as usual.

Yun Yiyi immediately felt a little more at ease, and smiled cautiously.

He guessed, "Is Father referring to the rumors circulating on the streets outside?"

Yun's father stared intently at Yun Yiyi without uttering a sound.

Yun Yiyi took a slight breath and straightened up from her knees.

Following her guess, she continued, "I know Father is very angry, but I didn't send anyone to spread this. People will say what they want, what can I do?"

As she spoke, Yun Yiyi's eyes reddened, and her tone became somewhat aggrieved.

In the past, Yun's father would have already suppressed his anger and gently coaxed her.

But things are different now, and Yun Yiyi's wishful thinking has ultimately backfired.

Yun's father simply watched her perform quietly.

Deep down, he felt increasingly unfamiliar with the daughter in front of him.

Seeing that her father remained unmoved, Yun Yiyi couldn't help but feel a little hesitant.

She said tremblingly, "Father, why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?"

Yun's father lifted his eyelids and glanced at the maid beside him.

The maid trembled even more violently after feeling the oppressive gaze.

Yun's father sneered, "I also want to know why my daughter has become so unfamiliar. Can Yiyi answer my question?"

Yun Yiyi was startled and looked up at her father.

The hint of guilt in his eyes did not escape Yun's father's notice.
