Nalan Zhangqian stopped walking too. He was outrageous. âYiâer, this girl has done too much. She has taken my koi away.â
Qin Yi protected Tang Yin and stood in front of her. She was frowning slightly. âItâs only a koi. When did you become so stingy?â
âThatâs right! I just want to cook fish soup for Xiao Qing.â
âXiao Qing would definitely love it!
Tang Yin smiled happily and excitedly when she thought of Feng Ruqingâs excitement.
âDid you hear that? Xiao Yin just wants to cook fish soup for Qingâer.â Qin Yi stared at Nalan Zhangqian. âDo you see how sensible she is? Youâre always so fierce. What if you scared her? You should learn from her. Take your koi and cook it for your father.â
Nalan Zhangqian was speechless.
Nalan Zhangqian was nervous and he felt wronged. âI spent a fortune on the koi. A fortune!â
Qin Yi snorted. âXiao Yin, donât be afraid of this stingy man. Letâs go. Go and cook the fish soup. Iâll ask Daiâer to go to the princessâs manor with you. Sheâs talking about wanting to meet Qingâer.â
âFine.â
Tang Yin held the koi in her hand happily. But, she had accidentally used too much of her strength and the koi died from suffocation. 1
âAunt Qin, the koi is dead.â Tang Yin almost broke into tears. Her eyes were red and she seemed pitiful.
Qin Yiâs soon turned soft. âItâs fine. Go and pick another one.â
Nalan Zhangqian did not know how to respond to that.
At that moment, he only had a thought. A lot of his money was going down the drain.
âBut, my wife adores her. I cannot stop her.
âLuckily, Qingâer is back. Tang Yin wonât stay long at General Manor. She would not bring a lot of harm to us even if she wants to.â
But, Nalan Zhangqian was not relieved for long. Qing Ling came with carriage and a few bags.
Nalan Zhangqian felt that there was something wrong just by looking at Qing Lingâs action. He asked hesitantly, âQing Ling, this...â
âGeneral, the princess said that she wants Lady Tang to stay here for a few days more seeing that Lady Tang is quite happy here.â
âShe could have more time to bond with Young Master Nalan.â
Surely, Qing Ling did not say it out loud. Nalan Zhangqian would go crazy if she said that.
Nalan Zhangqianâs facial expression froze. âYou said that Qingâer wants her to stay at General Manor?â
âYes, General,â Qing Ling replied respectfully.
Nalan Zhangqianâs lips trembled. He wanted to say something but he did not know what to say.
He turned and saw the kois which were swimming happily in the pond. He also looked at the scenery in the manor.
Somehow, he felt that he could not keep them anymore.
âGeneral!â
An imperial guard rushed in and gave his report. âThe lady from the Zhang family, the lady from the Lee family, and also the lady from the Zhao family, they said that...â
Nalan Zhangqian frowned slightly.
Those ladies always had all kinds of reasons and excuses to visit the Nalan family since they knew of the news that his son had broken off his engagement.
At first, he was soft-hearted and he allowed them to enter the Nalan family.
But, those girls had a lot of tricks up their sleeves. They talked with an unusually sweet voice and they always fell down accidentally but surely into Jingâerâs embrace even though they had only stepped on a pebble as tiny as a thumb.
Those girls would surely meet Jingâer if he did not hide fast enough.
In contrast, Tang Yin was more real. She was much better than those girls.
