“Oh!” The great elder responded softly, thinking that it was indeed Xue ‘er’s masterpiece. That girl was too lazy, and liked this kind of method to save trouble. However, how did she get caught red-handed this time? This wasn’t her style at all!
“Great elder! Do you think great aunt ruoxue will be in trouble?” Ning haolan asked worriedly. He had thought that Leng ruoxue had only gone to persuade Ning Yan. He did not expect her to do such a thing! Ugh! The relationship between the head butler and second elder was extraordinary, and second elder’s status in the ning family was extremely high. Hence, he had a feeling that Leng ruoxue had gotten into big trouble this time.
“Little brat! You’re not calm at all! Xue ‘er isn’t that stupid!” The great elder said without a trace of worry. He was very clear about Xue ‘er’s character. That little girl might be young, but she had never done anything that she was not confident in. Therefore, he was not worried at all and only wanted to wait for a good show.
“Uh! That’s true!” Ning haolan said as he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. It seemed like he knew too little about Leng ruoxue.
At this moment, Ning Yan also arrived.
Originally, when she received the news that the second elder had brought the elders and the head butler to her father’s place, she immediately went to inform ruoxue. Who knew that grape would actually tell her that ruoxue had fallen asleep and even told her to go back to sleep. God knows how she could fall asleep now!
“The Yan girl is here too.” First elder greeted Ning Yan with a smile when he saw her.
“En!” Ning Yan nodded and sat down in the empty seat next to them. She said guiltily,””Little sister ruoxue is doing this for me.”
“That girl doesn’t fight a battle she’s not confident in, so you can rest assured!” The first elder advised. Although he almost never left the house, Ning Yan’s matter these past few days could not be hidden from him. Not only that, but even old man ning knew about it. However, old man ning had no reaction because they were all waiting for Ning Yan to explode.
“Mm! I’ll go find father!” Ning Yan made up her mind and stood up.
First elder burst out laughing at her determined look, which made Ning Yan feel embarrassed.
“Gorgeous girl! Are you sure you want to go in now? They seem to be complaining inside!” The first elder said with an evil smile.
“I also want to complain!” Ning Yan said viciously. This matter started because of her, and she absolutely could not implicate her younger sister ruoxue.
At this thought, Ning Yan walked to the door of the study and pushed it open.
Everyone in the study glanced at Ning Yan, but no one spoke.
The head butler, who was in the middle of his confession, felt a little guilty after seeing Ning Yan and even forgot to continue.
“Yan ‘er is here, have a seat!” Master ning looked at Ning Yan and said.
He loved his daughter, Ning Yan, very much.
Although he had many children, those children were like mice seeing a cat when they saw him. Only Ning Yan dared to get close to him, so he gave her more love. However, it was because of this that Yan ‘er became the target of public criticism and there were many slanders. Therefore, although he loved Ning Yan, he hoped that Ning Yan could handle these things on her own. After all, he couldn’t Tie Ning Yan to his side all day long. The child had grown up. He had to be independent after all.
However, after the storm these two days, he felt that Yan ‘er seemed to be a little different.
“Thank you, Father!” Hearing master ning’s words, Ning Yan sat down on the chair closest to the desk without saying a word.
With Ning Yan’s presence, the head butler was not so at ease, because he was afraid that Ning Yan would dig up what had happened that day. If the master found out, it was hard to say whether his sister could keep her life!
“Head butler, please continue.” The master of the ning family glanced at the head butler and ordered indifferently.
“Yes!” The chief butler replied, but he did not speak for a long time.
After waiting for a while, Ning Yan revealed a beautiful smile and said with a smile that was not a smile,””Head butler, the patriarch has ordered you to continue!” Ning Yan’s tone was quite unfriendly, and the chief butler couldn’t help but shiver. No matter how much he looked down on Ning Yan, he didn’t dare to show her any attitude in front of the master, not to mention that he was very guilty.
“Master! My sister has been drugged and is now unconscious. Please, you must help her!” The head butler said as if he was forcing a duck onto a rack. As he spoke, his face was already covered in tears, as if he had suffered a great grievance.
Although he knew very well who had drugged his sister, he didn’t dare to say it without the master asking. Besides, Ning Yan was also involved.
“May I know the identity of the head Butler’s sister? How dare you disturb the patriarch’s cultivation? let him seek justice for you. ” Ning Yan asked sarcastically.
“This … Although my little sister doesn’t have a high status in the ning family, she’s still a part of the ning family. How can she be treated like this? The person who had drugged her must be punished! This isn’t as simple as just drugging my sister, it’s also challenging the authority of our ning family! So, master, please punish the murderer and seek justice for my sister! Otherwise, it will only cause the hearts of the clansmen to turn cold. ” The head Butler’s mind was spinning. He directly raised his sister’s injury to the family’s level, because he believed that for the ning family’s honor, the master had to support his sister.
His words resonated with some of the elders present. However, many of them were still not aware that the person who had drugged ning Lihua was Leng ruoxue. Otherwise, they would not have dared to come and look for the family head even if they were given a hundred guts.
“Master! The head butler was right! Someone actually dared to drug our ning family’s clansmen in the main residence. This matter must be severely punished! Otherwise, the clansmen will be in a state of panic. ” An elder chimed in. The elder who had spoken was of a lower status among the elders, and he was eager to please the smooth-talking head butler. Therefore, he was the first to speak up.
After that, a few other elders agreed with him. Moreover, their purpose was the same.
Although the head butler could only be regarded as a high-ranking servant in the ning family, he was in charge of many internal affairs of the ning family. More importantly, the head butler was a favorite of the second elder. There was no harm in having a good relationship with him.
After hearing the words of the head butler and the elders, Ning Yan cursed in her heart, idiot! Now, let them echo enough! They would be crying later. Although she wasn’t sure if her father would do as they wished and punish little sister ruoxue, she was clear that her father was protective of her.
The head butler and several elders were talking at once, but the master of the ning family sitting in the chair closed his eyes. When they were done talking and saw the master of the ning family’s appearance, he smiled bitterly in his heart. Could it be that he had overreached himself? The atmosphere turned heavy.
After a long time.
Only then did the master of the ning family slowly open his bright eyes. He looked around at the people in the study and said in a very cold tone,””Are you done? Do you have anything else to say?”
