Chapter 354: As Stupid as Her Father

Li Bixi pulled Cheng Lanying from the hands of the maids. She hugged Cheng Lanying tightly and pleaded with Cheng Yunshuo, "My Lord, I was wrong. Please have mercy on me and don't take Lanying away! I have taken care of Lanying since she was a child. She is my flesh and blood. If you take her away, you will cut off my flesh! I was wrong!"

Cheng Yunshuo looked at Li Bixiang who was begging for mercy frantically, and he felt annoyed but also soft-hearted. Before he opened his mouth, Cheng Lanying in Li Bixiang's arms burst into tears.

"Bad daddy! You are not a good daddy to Lanying at all. You are the worst person in the whole mansion! I hate you!"

"Lanying!" Li Bixiang couldn't stop Cheng Lanying from talking.

Cheng Yunshuo looked at Cheng Lanying, who had her mouth covered quickly and was looking at him with hatred in her eyes, and he couldn't help but frown.

"What did you say about me?"

"My Lord, Lanying is still young and doesn't understand things." Li Bijie hugged Cheng Lanying tightly and begged for mercy.

Cheng Yunshuo stepped forward and pulled Cheng Lanying out of her arms, "What did you say to me?"

He claimed to be the best to Cheng Lanying in the whole mansion. Since she was born, he held her in his arms, spoiled her and played with her. This was a treatment that neither Cheng Suying nor Cheng Binghao had ever had...

But in the end, among all the children, she was the only one who always called him a bad person and hated him the most.

"Lanying, don't talk nonsense!" Li Bixiang warned hurriedly.

Cheng Lanying, who was dragged out, completely ignored her mother's warning. She stared at Cheng Yunshuo with eyes filled with hatred to the core.

"I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!"

Cheng Lanying was making a lot of noise, hitting, beating and screaming.

Children's feelings are much more direct than adults'. If Cheng Yunshuo disliked her and ignored her as his daughter from the beginning, Cheng Lanying would not do the same.

The most terrifying thing was that he gave her unique pampering, made her have fantasies and expectations every day, and gave her enough confidence every day, praised her highly, and then took it away coldly. How could Cheng Lanying not hate him?

Cheng Lanying couldn't tell what was true and what was false. She only knew that this father who didn't love her was extremely bad.

She hated him most in the whole mansion.

After hearing what Cheng Lanying said, Cheng Yunshuo fell silent at the look in her eyes and the way she rushed over to hit him without caring about anything.

Li Bixi was so frightened that she grabbed her and begged for mercy in a hurry, "Master, please forgive Lanying. Lanying is young and she didn't mean that. Lanying, apologize to your father quickly."

Cheng Lanying looked at Cheng Yunshuo stubbornly, her eyes full of hatred, and was determined not to bow her head.

"Hurry up! What did your mother teach you?"

If this happened in private, Li Bijie would have spanked Cheng Lanying's buttocks. But at this moment, she had no time to think about those things. She was so anxious, but it was of no use.

Under Cheng Lanying's gaze, Cheng Yunshuo turned and walked away.

He left Bishui Garden and stood alone in the backyard of the huge mansion.

"Master, where are we going now?" Qingfeng asked carefully while standing behind him.

Cheng Yunshuo thought for a long time and said, "Go to Guangji Temple."

He left the mansion again and went to Master Yuanqing.

After he left, in Bishui Garden, Cheng Lanying was forcibly taken away from Li Bijie by the group of maids.

This time, Li Bijie didn't snatch so hard. She even looked at Cheng Lanying with a hint of coldness and hatred.

"Mother, mother, I won't go to the mistress's place! I won't go, I won't go!"

"If you hadn't said it just now, there would be nothing I could do!" Li Bixi was furious. "You keep contradicting your father. You should go to the mistress and learn how to behave yourself!"

She just had a chance, but she didn't cherish it. When she was told not to contradict her father, she actually listened to him!

She even dared to scold, beat and argue with her father in front of him. She was as stupid as...her father!

She really didn't want such a stupid and useless daughter.

"Mother! Mother!" Cheng Lanying held on to the door tightly and stretched out her hand to reach Li Bixi. Li Bixi's eyes were cold, but she sat down on the ground and began to cry sadly.

"Daughter, daughter, my daughter!"

She cried bitterly, looking like a poor mother whose love for her daughter had been torn apart.

At this time, in Lu Lingyun's yard.

Not long after Cheng Yunshuo left, Lu Lingyun opened the account book of miscellaneous items that had been piled up over the past few days and began to sort them out when he heard a noise outside.

"What happened?" Lu Lingyun asked.

As soon as she finished speaking, the maids grabbed Cheng Lanying and came to her.

"Madam, the prince asked you to discipline the second young lady from now on."

Lu Lingyun: "......"

She looked at Cheng Lanying, who was being escorted here by the group of maids, crying and with tears and snot all over her face. She called a maid over and asked in a low voice what happened.

After knowing what had just happened in Bishuiyuan, she looked at Cheng Lanying helplessly.

"Take the second young lady down and have her wash up properly."

"yes."

Cheng Lanying cried even louder.

Because she didn't dare to act unruly in front of Lu Lingyun, all she could do was cry.

After Cheng Lanying was taken away, Lu Lingyun asked again, "Where is the prince?"

"The prince has gone to Guangji Temple."

When Lu Lingyun heard that he went to the temple again, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Young Madam, do you want to invite the prince back to ask him questions?"

"No need, let him do whatever he wants."

Within two days.

There was news coming from the border again.

It was not a letter from home, but a battle report that was sent directly to the palace.

It was said that there was a great victory at the border, and the Ningyang Marquis led his former troops to defeat several large barbarian forces and successfully recaptured the border city that had been captured before.

The emperor was overjoyed after hearing this, and ordered Ningyang Marquis to pursue the victory and this time inflict severe damage on the barbarians, making it impossible for them to recover in the next few years or even more than ten years.

Lu Lingyun passed the news to Cheng Yunshuo who was in the temple.

It looks like the old marquis has survived a disaster and won't be back any time soon.

After hearing the news, Cheng Yunshuo did not come back. He asked Qingfeng to pass on a message, saying that he would stay in the temple to pray for his father.

Lu Lingyun ignored her, after all, she had a lot of her own things to do.

As long as there was good news at the border, she could rest assured for the time being. She drafted a betrothal gift list for Lu Kuan and added a lot of things to it.

"Big sister, our Lu family can't afford so many things, right? And this three-story house, did our Lu family have it before?"

Lu Kuan came to her today after court session.

"Dad has given all he could, and I've added some to the rest. Consider that house as my wedding present to you." Lu Lingyun said.

When Lu Kuan heard this, his hands couldn't help but tremble, "This..."

"You are my biological brother, and Nan Yi is my cousin. As your elder sister, I must show some appreciation when you two get married." Lu Lingyun looked at him, "You must treat Nan Yi well in the future."

In her previous life, Lu Kuan and Tong Nanyi had both given her warmth and help. Lu Lingyun was grateful and she would always remember whoever was kind to her and would repay them whenever she had the chance.
