"How could you be so disrespectful? If I don't teach you a lesson, I'm not a member of the Yin family."
Yin Changling was furious with her. At this moment, what bothered him the most was that man, Wan Qijin.
Xi'er abandoned her because of that man, and even the little fox she secretly gave birth to didn't recognize her because of that man.
Tu Shan Susu was already very perceptive of other people's emotions, and when she was so frightened, she burst into tears, crying very miserably.
Meanwhile, Wan Qiyi, who was outside the door, heard her younger sister crying because she was frightened. She then hit and bit the guard who was holding her, until she finally drew blood.
As soon as Wan Qiyi broke free, she rushed into the house, ignoring Yin Changling who was standing still, and immediately ran over to hug Tu Shan Susu.
"Susu, don't cry. Mother and Father will come to rescue us soon. We must stay strong, we will definitely make it back alive!"
Wan Qiyi tried to remain calm and comforted her, acting like a little adult, but in the end, she was still just a child.
Her hands were trembling as she held Tu Shan Susu, the two little bodies huddled together, looking exceptionally pitiful.
"Stop crying, everyone!"
Yin Changling felt a sudden shortness of breath. He did have a bad temper, but when it came to his little princesses, even a tiger wouldn't eat its own cubs, so he wouldn't go so far as to harm them.
And then there's Wan Qiyi. He knows she's Wan Qijin's flesh and blood, but so what? He's not so intolerant of a little baby.
Seeing them crying so miserably, as if they had been tortured by themselves, is heartbreaking to hear and brings tears to the eyes of anyone who sees it!
"I haven't even disciplined you yet, and you're already crying. Stop crying, that's not what I meant—"
He was about to explain when he was interrupted by a voice from outside.
"Yin Changling, what have you done to my precious children? If you dare to harm them, I'll kill you myself!"
That's right, the person who came was Tu Shan Ling Xi!
Yes, Xi'er!
Yin Changling turned his head immediately, his expression even more surprised than the two little foxes.
He turned around and saw the person he had been longing for appear before him, as if it were a dream.
"Xi'er—"
Yin Changling was stunned. His eyes were filled with astonishment, followed by ecstatic joy.
He disregarded everything else, abandoned all pretense, and walked towards Tu Shan Ling Xi.
"stop!"
Tu Shan Lingxi wouldn't let him get any closer. Her eyes were full of wariness, and even a hint of resentment.
Yin Changling was stunned; only then did he notice the woman's attire—
She was dressed in a plain white outfit stained with blood, her hair disheveled, clearly having arrived in a hurry and not having had time to tidy herself up.
Even so, it did not diminish Tu Shan Lingxi's stunning beauty in the slightest. Her face, which was even whiter, was contorted with anger, and her beautiful eyes were filled with rage.
Tu Shan Lingxi arrived in front of the two little foxes almost immediately and protected them firmly.
She was somewhat relieved to see that the two little foxes were crying with great vigor, and did not seem to be injured.
“Yin Changling, even tigers don’t eat their cubs, yet you failed to take good care of them. I’m so disappointed in you.”
Tu Shan Lingxi's clothes fluttered in the wind, and her voice was filled with deep disappointment, leaving Yin Changling somewhat at a loss.
However, when Yin Changling saw that Tu Shan Lingxi's clothes were still stained with blood, his expression immediately turned ugly.
Yin Changling knew everything now: Tu Shan Lingxi must have gone to be with her Imperial Preceptor, and she only returned after the burial was completed.
Or perhaps...
She came to retrieve something from him—the method to resurrect Wan Qijin, of course!
Yin Changling stopped in his tracks, squinting at Tu Shanlingxi without saying a word, his expression somewhat cold.
"You came here just to criticize me?"
Just as Tu Shan Lingxi was about to answer, she was stopped in her tracks by two cries.
"Mother—"
"Mother, you've finally come to pick us up!"
Wan Qiyi and Tu Shan Susu stopped crying. As if they had seen a lifeline, they rushed into her arms and cried very sadly.
Seeing this, Tu Shan Lingxi understood perfectly well that the two little foxes had suffered terribly, each living a more miserable life than the other.
She never expected that this person was indeed a heartless scoundrel, only knowing how to scheme and be ruthless, and not even showing the slightest bit of kindness!
Tu Shan Susu is his own daughter, and what did she see? She saw him taking no responsibility whatsoever and wantonly bullying his precious children.
"Okay, my sweet babies, stop crying. Mommy will take you home. Mommy won't let you stay here and suffer!"
Tu Shan Lingxi suddenly changed her mind. She originally wanted to ask Yin Changling to agree to give her the resurrection spell for the Grand Preceptor.
But it seems that the two are far from reaching a point where they can negotiate. I'm afraid the moment the topic comes up, the other person will get angry!
"Let's go—"
"etc!"
When Yin Changling saw that she was really leaving, he panicked. He had done so much for Xi'er, for his little princess.
They're gone. Hasn't everything I've done been for nothing?
"Don't you want to know how to save the Imperial Advisor?"
Yin Changling's mind was indeed quick and sharp; his mention of Wan Qijin caused the mother and her two daughters to stop in their tracks.
Wan Qiyi was the least aware of the situation. She didn't know what had happened to her father, so she opened her big, innocent eyes, grabbed Tu Shanlingxi's hand, and asked.
"Mother, what's wrong with Father? Why do we need to save him?"
Hearing this, Tu Shan Su Su thought of some of her own guesses and looked up at Tu Shan Ling Xi, hoping to get a response from her mother.
Tu Shan Lingxi didn't want them to know about these things; they were too young to get involved in the grudges of adults.
“Your father… your father is only slightly injured. Your Uncle Changfeng is taking care of him now. You two go out quietly, I’ll talk to him.”
The "he" that Tu Shan Lingxi was referring to was Yin Changling. The little ones were clever and understood immediately.
However... in their eyes, Yin Changling was an absolutely wicked villain, and they couldn't possibly feel at ease letting their mother get along with him!
"Oh no, Mother! He's a terrible man! He locked us both up and scolded us!"
It was rare for Tu Shan Su Su to complain, and her little face was filled with indignation, as if she wanted to raise her little fists to fight back.
Tu Shan Lingxi glared at Su Su, who was usually mild-mannered, and felt a deep sense of regret.
Why did she entrust the children to him, causing Su Su and the others to suffer?
Tu Shan Lingxi felt heartbroken looking at their accusing little faces.
"Susu, don't worry, Mommy will teach him a lesson for you!"
