After Ning Yue finished speaking to Old Master Ning, she called Baili over to ask about the situation that day. “Did you encounter anything after I left that day?”
“Yes,” Baili replied honestly.
It turned out that after that day, many people had inquired about their whereabouts. There were even a few people who had created chance encounters to see their situation.
“Did you think of a way to investigate what’s going on with this group of people?” Ning Yue asked Baili.
“Yes, I’ve arranged for secret guards to go. At the moment, we’ve found out that this group of people is related to the Black City Kingdom.” Baili said.
It was the Black City Kingdom again. Ning Yue clenched her fists tightly. She felt that everything that had happened recently was related to the Black City Kingdom.
“Thank you, Baili,” Ning Yue said.
She believed that if not for Baili, this group of people from the Black City Kingdom would have long attacked the Ning family.
“It’s our duty to share Princess’s worries. Princess, you don’t have to thank us,” Baili said.
Ning Yue did not say anything else. She was thinking about how to pay attention to the movements of the Black City Kingdom recently. Also, there was something wrong with that person.
However, it was already dinner time. Ning Yue put this matter aside for the time being. She made a sumptuous dinner for everyone and even called Jiang Ying over to eat with her.
When Old Master Ning saw that Ning Yue was so sensible, he felt very comforted and upset at the same time.
If possible, he would rather shelter Ning Yue, but the situation was the other way around.
He did not know what had happened to Ning Yue outside. Ning Yue did not even dare to tell her family when she returned. Wasn’t she afraid that they would be worried?
Seeing Old Master Ning’s worried expression, Ning Yue roughly knew what he was thinking and quickly poured him a glass of wine.
“Grandpa, let’s have a toast.” Ning Yue raised her red wine.
Seeing this, everyone hurriedly raised their glasses with him. After drinking the wine, Old Master Ning’s face turned red.
“Yueyue, if there’s anything, say it. We’re all standing behind you. Can’t we face it together?” Old Master Ning said.
Perhaps because he couldn’t control his alcohol intake, Old Master Ning actually wailed in the end.
“Grandpa is too useless. He actually couldn’t protect you well. Yueyue, you’ve suffered,” Old Master Ning said.
Ever since they fled from the drought, Ning Yue was called a lucky star by others. That’s right, Ning Yue was a lucky star. If not for Ning Yue, they would not have survived.
However, only Old Master Ning knew how tired Ning Yue was as the lucky star.
Now, Ning Yue was afraid that they would be worried and refused to tell them anything. He still sensed that something was wrong from Ning Guang and Madam Liu.
She suddenly had to leave Luzhou for no reason, and she was in such a hurry. Ning Yue had even disappeared for a few days.
Although Jiang Ying sent a letter the next day saying that they had gone to Prince Jin’s military camp, he knew Ning Yue well. She was not someone who left without saying goodbye.
Looking at the old man, Ning Yue suddenly did not know how to explain.
She couldn’t tell him everything, but Old Master Ning was worried, so she chose to tell him some information yesterday.
However, she did not expect Old Master Ning to be unhappy about this. Ning Yue sighed. “Grandpa, this matter is over. We’re all back.”
Old Master Ning cried even harder. If this matter could not be resolved, would his granddaughter not be able to come back?
At the thought of this, Old Master Ning stopped crying. Pfft, pfft, pfft. He couldn’t let his imagination run wild. Ning Yue was standing in front of him perfectly fine.
“That’s right. It’s good that you’re back.” Old Master Ning decided not to think too much. He just had to eat properly.
When the others saw Old Master Ning crying, they instantly did not know what to do. Their hearts ached for Ning Yue and Old Master Ning, who was crying like a child.
Fortunately, Old Master Ning stopped talking about this topic and the family ate.
Food always made people happy. After the meal, Old Master Ning’s depressed mood dissipated a lot.
After dinner, the family packed up and went to rest.
After experiencing so many days of difficulties, Ning Yue missed Xiaobao and Xiaobei the most. After dinner, she brought the two children back to her room and bathed them.
