Chapter 7 He’s Lying Again

But she didn’t want anything to happen to her family!

She sat up straight instantly, wanting to hear a few more words, but after a moment, the little one

remained silent.

The current emperor detested witchcraft the most. If anything related to it was found during the search of the Zhang family.

She didn’t have time to think it through.

She waved Hu Yue over and whispered in her car,

“Tell them that during my confinement, I crave my mother’s homemade ginseng soup. Sneak out and get it, but make sure nobody sees you. After saying this, Zhang Ling’s eyes flickered with a hint of inner conflict.

“No, hold on.” Zhang Ling struggled to rise from the bed.

The October air had already drenched her in cold sweat.

She fetched a scripture from the highest cabinet, one she had personally transcribed, initially meant as a gift for her mother–in–law’s birthday.

She bit her finger, enduring the pain as she continuously wrote something on it.

Once the ink dried, she said, “Retrieve the item under the tree and place this blood–written message inside. Make sure no one suspects a thing, and return immediately after retrieving it!”

Zhang Ling looked serious, and Hu Yue didn’t dare to waste any time as she hurriedly left the room.

That night, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

The next morning-

Yang Mingrui finally returned home looking exhausted.

“My love, it’s all my fault. There was urgent business in the court last night. I was busy all night, and couldn’t make it back in time. I’m sorry for making you wait Yang Mingrui apologised as soon as he entered the house. It was a familiar reason.

In the past, whenever he apologised like this, Zhang Ling would always comfort him affectionately, saying that state affairs were more important.

But now!…

She scrutinised Yang Mingrui. At thirty–four, he was handsome, with refined and elegant air that increased his charm.

The guilt and sincerity in his eyes almost overwhelmed her.

‘My sc*mbag father turns out to be pretty decent–looking. No wonder someone waited for him for over a decade, Yang Yuting couldn’t help but quipped.

Chapter 7 He’s Lying Again

“Is this our little girl? Come on, I’ll hug you. You’re the only “Yang Mingrui suddenly halted his words.

Zhang Ling’s expression turned icy. The only daughter?

“Yeah, she’s the only daughter of the Yang family,” Zhang Ling said, with a slight frown.

“Her eyes resemble yours, but her mouth looks like mine,” Yang Mingrui said, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes.

But it had to be admitted, that this child was undeniably cute.

“You never held the three sons, but you’re willing to hold this one. Zhang Ling chuckled lightly.

“Sons can’t be spoiled, but daughters are different, right?” Yang Mingrui had been in the government for over a decade, and while his colleagues had become big–bellied, he remained lean and elegant, exuding an aura of authority,

In the capital, many women admired him.

Everyone praised his integrity and reputation.

‘Pretty Mother, he’s lying to you again. He treats my brothers differently. She continued talking, but Zhang Ling didn’t understand a word.

As soon as she heard about her three sons, Zhang Ling’s heart raced.

What did he do to my sons?

She couldn’t help but feel a sense of dread.

Her mind suddenly cleared.

She had only thought that Yang Mingrui had changed his heart. Could there be some other secret behind this?

Even though Yang Mingrui was usually observant, he didn’t pick up on her strange demeanour. After years of deception, he didn’t need to think of any more excuses.

With just rubbish nonsense, she’d believed him completely.
