Yin Yi was stunned.
Guan Ning did not speak anymore. She let her daughter mull over her words.
After a long time, Yin Yi called out softly in a daze, “Mom?”
!!
“Yes?”
“I can’t let Grandpa and Dad abandon me,” Yin Yi said softly.
Guan Ning sighed in relief inwardly. At least, her efforts were not wasted.
As though she had made up her mind, Yin Yi said, “I want to meet Ning Dong.”
Guan Ning frowned and was about to persuade Yin Yi again when Yin Yi raised her hand to stop Guan Ning. Then, she said, “Mom, I want to have a good chat with Ning Dong. He wants to marry me, right? Then, we should at least discuss the conditions. I don’t love him. He knows that, but he still insists on marrying me. What does he want?”
Guan Ning looked at Yin Yi in surprise.
Yin Yi straightened her back and tidied her hair. The corners of her lips curled up into a smirk as she said with a scoff, “I don’t believe that I can’t make my own decisions.”
Guan Ning was a little worried. She said, “Yin Yi, both your grandfather and father are very satisfied with this marriage. They both don’t think that they can find you a more suitable match even if they want to. To them, it’s a golden opportunity that Ning Dong took the initiative to take responsibility. Even with our family background, Yin Jia still has to have a marriage alliance, let alone you. Moreover, your brother’s life is hanging by a thread. If you hold onto the Ning family, it’ll be a great help to our position in the Yin family in the future. Do you understand?”
Yin Yi looked at Guan Ning with a half-smile on her face and asked, “Mom, if that’s the case, I’ll be considered a hero for marrying Ning Dong, right?”
Guan Ning nodded. “Of course.”
Yin Yi mumbled, “What if it’s the Mu family? What if I marry Mu Chen? Won’t Grandpa and Dad be even happier?”
Guan Ning did not reply to these words. After all, this wishful thinking did not warrant a reply.
An infatuated expression appeared on Yin Yi’s face as she muttered to herself, “If I marry into the Mu family, our family will definitely consider me a hero. At that time, I’ll be able to take charge of the Yin family and the Mu family. Mom, at that time, you’ll be able to live a good life.”
Guan Ning still did not say anything. She was very familiar with her daughter. In terms of intelligence, capabilities, and scheming, her daughter was no match for Guan Tang at all. However, her daughter’s arrogance was unrivaled. At this time, she no longer persuaded or advised her daughter. As long as her daughter accepted Ning Dong and was no longer confined to the room, she would let her daughter do whatever she wanted. If her daughter caused a problem. It would be fine if her daughter caused a small problem or two. If it was a big problem, the Yin family would take care of it. After all, Old Master Yin cared about his reputation the most.
Finally, Guan Ning rubbed her temples, looking exhausted, before she said to Yin Yi, “Let’s go to the spa and go shopping. After that, you can meet Ning Dong.”
When Guan Ning walked out of the room, she saw Qin Shuang, Old Madam Yin, standing outside with a faint smile on her face. She straightened her back and adjusted her expression immediately before she asked calmly, “Old Madam, why are you here?”
Inwardly, Guan Ning thought that she had to find time to get rid of the servants here. She could allow them to run rampant here.
Qin Shuang said with a smile, “I came to persuade the Second Young Miss to stop causing trouble. I forgot that she has a biological mother who dotes on her so there’s no need for me, her grandmother, to worry about her.”
Guan Ning smiled gently. “Yin Yi has thought things through and is sensible now. She has already reflected on her actions. Right now, her brothers are in danger. If she continues to cause trouble, she’s not worthy of being the young miss of the Yin family.”
Qin Shuang nodded her head in approval. Then, she said, “The Eldest Madam of the Yin family is still the most virtuous. Tsk! I really don’t know what to say about Cheng Yi. All she thinks about is that dead person and ignores the living in front of her. You accompanied and supported the Eldest Master for so many years… In my opinion, she should really thank you for taking such good care of her son. It’s really unfair to you.”
