Ning Yuâs face had turned stiff as she closed her own eyes to remember why sheâs doing this again. Then by the time she opened them again, the initial hesitation had dampened but still there once the image of Bai Ningâs face came up.
"Pa, you are right, even if those people make a bigger mistake, Auntie Ning will still forgive them, otherwise why else would she continue to yearn for those wolves for all these years? I have to let Auntie Ning become disappointed in that woman. I will save her!"
âGood child," full of gentle love in his voice, Ning Yuanâs smile look like heâs doing something great and kind despite the cruel nature of whatâs trying to pull. "I will need you to help me with something, okay?"
âWhatâs is it?â Ning Yu asks with willingness in her voice.
As long as itâs to help take down Auntie Ningâs daughter then Iâm willing to do anything.
âI have here a poison, you will go sneak this to that woman and get her to eat it. She will die for sure afterwards!"
Poison?
Stunned for a second, Ning Yu silently stares down at the green beady little thing in her fatherâs hand. Slightly panicking in her voice: "Pa, what if Auntie Ning finds out about this? If she finds out then she will hate me for sure. You know it as well Pa, I never had a mother since I was born, I canât afford to have her hate me!"
She was indeed very willing to deal with the likes of Bai Yan and her brats, but thatâs only to the extent of shaming them with misunderstanding and misunderstanding. That way they would leave on their own and she herself not taking any risk. Now sheâs supposed to put her head on the line?
Unsure and not knowing what to do, the girl tries to deflect the idea: âPa, I donât think this is the way to go. What if they find out? How about I lure her outside and you kill her instead?"
Now it was the scumâs turn to go stiff in the face over the proposal.
Itâs true in his opinion Bai Yan wasnât as strong as him in person, but there are too many capable talents around the lady. Take his injuries here for example, it was done in by that group. Now his daughter wants him to attack the woman instead? As if he had the guts!
Making a couple of dry coughs to ready his excuse: "Daughter, you need not be afraid, thereâs no way your Auntie Ning would dislike you. No matter what you do, you will always be her favorite person. Sheâs only momentarily tricked by those people. Once that woman dies then she will naturally recover and return to us."
In the end under the constant pressuring of her father, Ning Yu nervously retrieves the green pill into her own hand: "Pa, I understand, I will do as you say."
âGood child," a soft luster filled the manâs face over the success, "donât worry, once that evil wolf of a daughter is dead, no one will ever try to fight you for Ningâerâs attention."
Perhaps itâs the fear of being caught, or the fear of actually killing someone for the first time, but it took a very long time before the petite girl could take the first step into the inn after leaving her old man in the alleyway.
âYuâer." From out of the blue, a faint feministic sound came down from the second floor, causing the already agitated Ning Yu to jerk upwards in fright due to being startled.
Bai Ning was walking down the stairways when she saw this, and she immediately picked up on the odd behavior: "Whatâs the matter Yuâer?"
âNo...Nothing..." Tightly biting her own lips, the petite girl couldnât keep calm as sweat filled her forehead: "I only got scared a little, itâs nothing."
