But this time, Duan Qingxi guessed wrong.
Although Duan Shishi had just left, Duan Hong was afraid that he would let Sun Jingjing down, after all, he had promised himself that he would take good care of their daughter.
But now, he has completely calmed down and even feels that letting Duan Shishi go to Mount Li is a good decision.
As for when to bring them back...
What's rare is that he doesn't have this idea for the time being. Anyway, he just feels that with Duan Shishi gone, the entire general's mansion has become much more peaceful and comfortable.
So when Duan Sijin went to find him, he was still leisurely watering the flowers and plants in his yard.
Duan Sijin was also surprised. He thought he would see a confused and depressed Duan Hong, but he didn't expect Duan Hong to be in a good mood and even hum a little tune.
Not to mention Duan Sijin, the housekeeper has been with Duan Hong for decades and never expected him to be like this.
So when he saw Duan Sijin, he showed a very complicated expression, which could be said to be not only happy but also sad.
"Master."
Duan Hong didn't expect Duan Sijin to come over at this time. When he looked at him, a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face.
Such a big thing just happened in the mansion, even Duan Shishi was sent to Mount Li, and he, her own father, was humming a little tune. Well... something is not right.
"Jin'er, are you here?"
Putting down the kettle in his hand, Duan Hong straightened his clothes before saying to the housekeeper, "Go make a pot of hot tea."
The butler bowed and said respectfully, "Yes."
Duan Hong walked to the stone table nearby, pointed to the seat opposite him, and said to Duan Sijin, "Sit down."
After Duan Sijin sat down in front of Duan Hong, he looked at him for a long time. After realizing that Duan Hong's emotions were not fake, he asked, "Dad...are you not worried about Shishi anymore?"
Duan Hong's expression became awkward again, and he was somewhat confused about what Duan Sijin meant.
Is she deliberately testing him?
Duan Sijin was indeed testing Duan Hong, but he hoped that Duan Hong would not care so much about Duan Shishi. After all, the more Duan Hong cared about Duan Shishi, the more cruel some truths would be to tell.
Duan Hong pondered for a while before saying, "Actually, everything you said to Dad has been kept in mind. Although I'm a little reluctant to send Shishi to Mount Li this time, it's a good thing for her to gain some experience outside on her own."
Duan Sijin heard this and nodded, "Indeed."
After a while, Duan Hong continued, "Although I still don't quite understand what happened, I know that Shishi did something wrong. Don't worry, I won't be soft-hearted with her this time. Unless the Ninth Prince proposes to get married, I won't be soft-hearted and take her back."
Duan Sijin was surprised this time, "Dad, are you serious?"
Seeing that Duan Sijin had no intention of blaming him, Duan Hong nodded and said, "Of course it's true. I always felt that I owed Shishi. Your mother passed away early, and this matter was also my fault. So all these years I have been thinking about how to make it up to Shishi, but I am a man and I don't know how to make it up. I can only indulge her and pamper her. Now I realize that this was wrong..."
Duan Shishi was really well-behaved in front of him, but behind his back...
Duan Hong really loves Duan Shishi, so he feels that this cannot go on.
When she marries Helian Sheng in the future, no one in the Ninth Prince's Mansion will be willing to pamper her like this. They agreed to let her go to Mount Li, firstly to punish her, and secondly to hope that she could calm down and reflect on her mistakes.
