Chapter 268: Look Like Someone
The General's Little Peasant Wife
Translator: Vesper
Nangong Che frowned as he looked at Ning Meng Yao. Whatâs with this woman? Why does it seem like there are thorns when she looks at him?
âThe Great Generalâs wife, there doesnât seem to be any misunderstanding between you and me, right?â Nangong Che said helplessly as he looked at Ning Meng Yao.
Ning Meng Yao faintly shot a glance at Nangong Che, she then said: âThere isnât any.â
âSince there isnât any, then why do I feel youâre prejudiced against me?â Nangong Che had a helpless expression as he looked at Ning Meng Yao, his expression seemed a little strange.
Ning Meng Yao was amused. She looked at Nangong Che and jest: âPrejudice against you? Who are you for me to be prejudiced against?â
âNing Meng Yao, you seem to be going a little overboard.â
âWhoâs the one overboard? Nangong Che, do you really think that I do not know your motive? Asking who my parents are? Next, would you be telling me that you know my parents and I resemble someone in Ling Empire?â Ning Meng Yao said sarcastically.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Nangong Che was unable to reply Ning Meng Yaoâs words.
âYouâre simply being unreasonable,â Nangong Che said with rage.
He had indeed felt Ning Meng Yao resembled someone. That person was only a position below a certain someone and above tens of thousands of people in Ling Empire.
Even for him, he would obediently retract his claws in front of that person.
âI would really thank Prince Nangong for your evaluation, however, the Great Generalâs Residence does not welcome you. Please return to where you came from,â Ning Meng Yao did not know why she hated this person so much.
Nangong Che suppressed his rage as he looked at Ning Meng Yao: âRegardless whether you believe me or not, you really do look like someone.â
Ning Meng Yao let out a burst of mocking laughter: âReally, thank you for telling me, if there isnât anything else, Prince Nangong, please.â
Nangong Che was feeling furious in his heart, but he got up and left gloomily.
After Nangong Che left, Qiao Tian Chang shot a glance at Lin Zi You and Lei An. The two of them understood and they got up and left.
Qiao Tian Chang even sent away Grandmother Qin, as well as Qing Xue and the others. Only the two of them were left in the courtyard.
âYao Yao, tell me, whatâs with you today?â After she returned and saw Nangong Che, he obviously felt something wrong with Ning Meng Yao. It could be said that she was too agitated.
Ning Meng Yao inhaled a deep breath and looked at Qiao Tian Chang: âI actually know that person heâs talking about, itâs the Ling Empireâs Regent, Nangong Yan. I met him once. That man is someone I find the hardest to understand. He is a handsome man, and thereâs a 50% similarity in our looks.â
âWhat? You mean to say, you might be the daughter of Ling Empireâs Regent?â Qiao Tian Changâs eyes were wide open. He had heard of Nangong Yanâs famous name. He was Ling Empireâs saint. Even Ling Empireâs Emperor had to be respectful towards him. However, he was in his forties and had no intention to marry.
âIâm not sure either. Iâve sent people in Tong Bao Zhai to investigate this matter, but Iâve only managed to investigate that Nangong Yan had a close relationship with Xiao Empireâs Eldest Princess, Xiao Cheng Ya. Later on, the Eldest Princess disappeared. Even Nangong Yanâs whereabouts is a mystery,â Ning Meng Yao would not hide anything from Qiao Tian Chang, that was why she told him everything.
Qiao Tian Chang reached out his hand and patted Ning Meng Yaoâs back: âWhat do you think is Nangong Cheâs purpose of coming here?â
âRight, the Regent, Nangong Yan, has always been a mysterious existence in Ling Empire. All the Princes in Ling Empire, including Nangong Che, want to win him over and obtain his support. Iâm afraid he is starting from me for such a reason,â Ning Meng Yao did not dare say she could completely guess Nangong Cheâs thoughts, but she largely able to guess it.
Qiao Tian Chang understood and nodded: âNo wonder your attitude towards him was bad.â
âRight, someone is helping me to investigate it as well. Tian Chang, you must remember, no matter what Nangong Che asks you, you must not tell him,â She did not wish to be a chess piece in someoneâs hands.
Want to use her as a chess piece, that would have to depend on whether heâs capable enough.
Qiao Tian Chang smiled and nodded: âOf course I know. Donât worry, I know what to do.â
