"You know, an act of saving someone's life must be repaid with one's body!" This is what Song Yan'er said the first time she met Xiao Yang!
From then on, whether it was me...
Song Yan'er sneered inwardly! They really think too highly of Bai Yang!
"Okay, let's go!"
After following the little maid for a while, Song Yan'er reached a fork in the road. The little maid glanced at Song Yan'er:
“Miss Song, we’ve been lingering at the entrance for a while now. I’m worried the General’s wife might be upset with me, so let’s take this side path instead. It’ll be faster. Is that alright with you?”
The little girl looked terrified of being punished!
Song Yan'er sneered: "Since you put it that way, then lead the way. Anyway, I've never been to the General's Mansion before, so I'll leave it to you!"
Song Yan'er knew very well that this was going to cause trouble! Since they had already made their move, she just had to wait and see what they could do!
Song Yan'er grew increasingly excited, wondering if Bai Yang could give her a surprise!
Let's add a little thrill to our otherwise mundane days!
This road is winding and passes several artificial hills. It must be said that the General's Mansion is very large. I have been walking for half an hour and have not walked the same path twice!
Finally, after passing a rockery, we arrived at a house. It looked like a place where people lived regularly, not a room that would be used for scheming!
The little girl glanced at Song Yan'er, who probably knew what was about to happen and felt a little guilty!
"Ms. Song, I'm sorry! You're on your own from now on!"
I understand Song Yan'er!
She didn't respond to the little girl's words. After all, Song Yan'er wasn't a saint. If someone was about to harm you, would you still smile and say you forgive them?
"Come out if you're supposed to, or you'll be leaving soon!"
When Song Yan'er arrived in this vicinity, she sensed several auras behind the artificial hill with her spiritual power!
It wasn't certain before, but now it's certain that it's aimed at me!
As he finished speaking, several figures of black-clad guards appeared from behind the artificial hill, and then another person silently walked out from behind them!
Well, he's actually a bit similar to Xiao Yang; they're the same type of handsome guy!
Wearing a jade belt and brocade robe, her elegance was tinged with a touch of allure! When she saw Song Yan'er, a slight smile played on her lips, revealing a wicked and charming air!
"So many people! Are you trying to kill me here?!"
Is Bai Yang really that stupid?
The man leading the group was Bai Yang's nephew, Bai Zihao. Hearing Song Yan'er's words, he curled his lips, looked at her, and saw her calm yet slightly displeased expression. Shouldn't she be terrified?
"Killing Miss Song wouldn't be necessary. We're just playing a game of chess, and we're all pawns in it. If Miss Song cooperates and makes a few moves, everyone's happy. But if Miss Song doesn't want to move and just wants to stay put, then don't blame me! After all, I'm just a pawn myself, and I can't decide who's on the board."
Song Yan'er sneered: "So you mean I have to walk a couple of steps and you can just stay put? You wish! But I want to know how you need me to cooperate. Tell me, and if you do a good job, maybe I'll change my mind and cooperate obediently!"
Bai Zihao...
This woman is not simple; I'm about to be led by the nose by her!
Aunt, this time we might be able to pick you up!
However, Bai Zihao didn't ask any of these questions; he just wanted to complete his own tasks!
The rest is up to fate!
Bai Zihao waved his hand, and the guards behind him surrounded Song Yan'er!
But Bai Zihao himself took a step back!
Song Yan'er sneered: "Young Master Bai, this is no fun, is it? What do you mean by backing down? You don't actually think that the people you brought can stump me, do you?"
Bai Zihao scoffed: "I've long heard that Miss Song is highly skilled in martial arts. Four years ago, she could have defeated two level nine fighters. I know I'm no match for her, so I won't go up there as a punching bag!"
Song Yan'er...
Seeing Bai Zihao's leisurely manner, and considering that these guards didn't seem to be trying to kill her, she realized that Bai Zihao was taking it easy.
Song Yan'er fell silent for a moment!
It seems these people are just there to hold me back, so the problem must lie with Xiao Yang!
Luckily, I let the roast duck out and kept an eye on Xiao Yang!
...
Xiao Yang followed the servant into General Xiao's study and saw that General Xiao was practicing calligraphy, so he followed him closer!
"You're here! Come and see how my handwriting is!"
General Xiao immediately waved to Xiao Yang as soon as he saw him!
Xiao Yang: "Wow, how long have you been practicing calligraphy? But with your skill level, this is probably your limit!"
General Xiao was so angry that he was about to slap Xiao Yang again, but this time Xiao Yang skillfully dodged it!
Xiao Yang: "What exactly is it that you insist we come here for?"
Originally, I planned to stay home with my two little ones, since I hadn't seen them for a month. But General Xiao's guards were waiting at my door early in the morning, saying that they wanted my husband and me to come to the general's mansion together!
General Xiao put down his pen after hearing Xiao Yang's words, walked over to the table and sat down!
"What's the rush? Come on, have some tea first. This tea was given to you by your wife!"
When Xiao Yang heard that his wife's tea was not to be wasted, he picked it up and drank a cup!
"Your mother is somewhat hostile towards Yan'er, so I thought I'd have you come over so your mother could get to know her better. I believe your mother will like her too, since even the old lady likes her so much, which means she's a likable person. So! Hmm, understand?"
Xiao Yang...
"Just because of these things?"
General Xiao: "What kind of expression is that? Isn't this a big deal? She's your mother, Song Yan'er's mother-in-law! Shouldn't you get along with her?"
Xiao Yang sneered: "Father, have you ever heard the saying 'love me, love my dog'? On the contrary, it's the same principle! She has never liked me since she was a child, so how could she possibly like my wife? It's normal for her to be hostile towards Yan'er. If she liked Yan'er, I would have to be careful whether she was going to harm Yan'er!"
General Xiao suddenly slammed his hand on the table, making the teacup shake. This was a fine rosewood table! You can imagine how angry General Xiao was!
"Xiao Yang, is this how a son should speak? She is your mother, not your enemy. What do you mean by worrying that she will harm your wife? If your mother knew how you think of her, how heartbroken she would be. She has her own difficulties. Can't you be more understanding of her?"
Xiao Yang sneered, looking at General Xiao expressionlessly, which made General Xiao's heart tighten!
General Xiao understood that his son had never been close to him and Bai Yang. In the past, Bai Yang had to take care of her other two sons and maintain a good image as a stepmother. Therefore, General Xiao had never said a bad word about Bai Yang over the years!
Ultimately, the main reason lies with herself. She's been fighting away from home for years, with no chance to go back. All the burdens have fallen on Bai Yang's shoulders. She's not a god, so she's bound to have some shortcomings, which she can understand! But it's clear that Xiao Yang can't understand, and in fact, he still harbors resentment after hearing his words!
General Xiao was at a loss for what to do!
