Sun Wanjing didn't believe Yun Yuqi would forget their promise; they loved each other so much. "Father, don't lie to me. Father, we promised each other long ago that once we got through that hurdle, we would never be apart again."

"Life is unpredictable."

“Father, Yuqi will not abandon me, he will not.”

Lord Sun looked at Sun Wanjing and said, "Father knows you can't accept this. But Father can't lie to you. Let me tell you, most men crave the tenderness in front of them. When you're not in front of them, they'll naturally forget you."

"No! Impossible! He promised me he wouldn't abandon me."

"Then just assume he wouldn't dare." Lord Sun told Sun Wanjing what Sun Dazhi had found out about Sisi. "With her around, even if you take the children back, you won't get away with it. Have you forgotten that she sold off your dowry and all your servants as soon as she arrived in the capital?"

“…” Sun Wanjing was speechless.

After a long while, Sun Wanjing finally said, "No matter how powerful she is, she can't interfere in her father's affairs."

"If she were reasonable, she wouldn't have sold your dowry and servants."

"..." A thought popped into Sun Wanjing's mind. "Father, what if she dies..."

"Don't even think about it. You know very well how capable the Yun family is. The fact that they were able to get Steward Qi to speak on their behalf and that all of them made it to the border is all thanks to that mother and daughter. Just how capable are they? I still don't know who's behind them."

"No matter how many people they have around them, they don't have as many people as the First Prince. The First Prince has been assassinated."

Sun Wanjing's words made sense. However, Lord Sun didn't want to risk his entire family's lives. "Your father isn't as capable as the person who assassinated the First Prince. Your father only has about a hundred or so men under his command. Alright, this matter is settled. Go back and rest."

"Father, I..."

Sun Wanjing was interrupted by Lord Sun after only a few words. "It's settled then. You may leave."

"father……"

"go out!"

Madam Sun was calculating how much silver the family had left when Sun Wanjing ran in crying. "Mother, Father wants me to remarry."

Lord Sun was telling the steward to arrange for someone to keep an eye on Sun Wanqing to prevent her from causing trouble for the family when Madam Sun stormed in. "Master, how could you let Jing'er remarry? Jing'er and Yuqi have such a good relationship!"

Lord Sun glared at Madam Sun. "Even the best things are in the past. Yun Yuqi's heart is now with Feng Xianzi and her two children. Jing'er is immature, but why are you immature too?"

Madam Sun never expected that Lord Sun would reprimand her in front of the steward. "Master, how...how could you do this?"

Lord Sun stared into Madam Sun's eyes and said, "I'm doing this for your own good. I won't stop you if you want to die, but I can't let you two kill the whole family. Steward, from now on, neither Madam nor Miss can leave the house without my order. Their servants are also not allowed to leave the house."

Butler: "..." Master, are you being too nervous? "Yes."

Madam Sun could hardly believe her ears. "Sir, how could you do this?"

"I don't want to be killed by you two!" He actually wanted to assassinate that little girl! If he had that kind of power, would he be holed up at home? He'd be out conquering the world with his men long ago! "Get out!"

"you!"

"go out!"

Madam Sun stormed off in a huff.

After Madam Sun left, the butler spoke his mind. "Master, the Yun family is not in the capital now. Even if Madam and Miss wanted to offend the Yun family, they couldn't."

Lord Sun glared at the steward. "The Yun family is not here, but Steward Qi is here, and Old Bai is here. Steward Qi and Old Bai are both people of Fairy Feng and her son."

The steward wanted to say that Lao Bai frequented brothels all day, and that Steward Qi was just waiting to die. However, Lord Sun had already glared at him. "This old servant was wrong. This old servant will definitely keep a close eye on Madam and Miss."

"Yes. And there are two other young masters." They're staying obediently in the capital now, and that little girl might give them a hand because they're so well-behaved.

"yes."

Sun Wanjing was waiting for her mother to tell her that her father had changed his mind. Unexpectedly, her father actually wanted to lock her and her mother in the house.

As soon as Lord Sun's eldest son, Sun Hanyu, returned home, his mother summoned him. "Mother, you wanted to see me?"

"Hmm." Madam Sun took a handkerchief and wiped the corner of her eye. "Your father won't let me and your sister go out."

Sun Hanyu was surprised to hear this. "Father is probably worried that you might encounter danger if you go out. As you know, things are very chaotic outside right now."

"No." Madam Sun told Sun Hanyu what had just happened.

After listening, Sun Hanyu felt that his father had done the right thing. He still couldn't forget the little girl who came to visit him in the middle of the night. "Mother, Jing'er, Father is right. With that little girl around, even if Yuqi still remembers you three, he wouldn't dare to take you back. Mother, you should find Jing'er a good family."

Lady Sun: "There's war everywhere now, where can you find a decent family?"

Sun Wanjing: "I won't remarry. Brother, what if that brat dies..."

"Stop! Stop! That little girl is like a ghost. She'll kill you before you even get close. You either remarry or stay home obediently."

"Why are you all like this? Even if she's incredibly capable, can she be as capable as the First Prince?"

Sun Hanyu looked at Sun Wanjing and said, "The eldest prince is dead, but she's still alive and kicking."

"...How can you compare them like that?"

"Why not? It's nothing compared to the others. Alright, you guys chat, I'm going back to rest."
