"The Lord Xiang came to see the young lady last night, but he scared the servant to death. The servant could not let the Lord know that the young lady was not in the house, so he lied casually, saying that the young lady had already fallen asleep after a long journey. You didn't say anything, just turned around and left."

"Well, well done!"

Shangguanhui gave her appreciation without hesitation.Qing'er has been with her for a long time, and has gradually become a little tactful in dealing with people and things.

"Miss, last night..."

"How is Qingluan?"

Shangguanhui suddenly interrupted Qing'er.She knew what Qing'er was going to ask, but she really didn't know how to answer it.Do you want to tell her that she was with a man all night last night?

"Miss, don't worry, Qingluan was taken away by a ghost-faced man yesterday. When she came back, her eyes were clear and her injuries were healed. I saw that she was a little weak, so I asked her to go back to her room to rest."

"You said a ghost-masked man took her away?" Shangguan Hui raised his eyebrows, showing surprise.

"That's right. That's what Qingluan told the servant girl. The servant girl thought it was the lady who asked the ghost-masked man to do this? Isn't it?"

Now Qing'er is puzzled.Looking at the young lady's expression, she doesn't seem to know that Qingluan was taken away by the ghost-masked man.But if it wasn't what the lady meant, why would that ghost-masked man take Qingluan away by himself?Could it be that they 'know' each other?

The conversation between the master and the servant ended here, because the maid passed on the message that Shangguan Wenyong had come.

Shangguan Hui gave Qing'er a wink, signaling her to be careful not to show her feet, while she pretended to be just waking up, wondering if she could fool Shangguan Wenyong's 'old fox'.

Shangguan Wenyong symbolically knocked on the door a few times.After all, it is a women's boudoir, even between father and daughter, etiquette must be observed.

Qing'er heard the knock on the door and immediately walked quickly and opened the door.

"Greetings to the Prime Minister!" Facing the blessing of the man standing outside the door, Qing'er lowered her head as low as possible, fearing that her stiff expression would give this wise and shrewd man a clue.Master Xiang came early in the morning, did he find something?is it possible?The young lady didn't come in through the main entrance, unless the Prime Minister had placed eyeliners everywhere in the mansion, it would not be so easy to find out the clues.

"Father is well?"

Shangguan Hui was about to be blessed, but was stopped by Shangguan Wenyong, "There are not so many polite things between father and daughter. Hui'er, you sit down too, I have something to say to you as a father."

Shangguan Wenyong took a seat directly beside the Eight Immortals table, and casually pointed to the chair next to him, signaling for Shangguan Hui to sit down too.

Seeing this, Qing'er took the excuse of going to make tea, and walked out wisely, leaving room for their father and daughter to talk.

Shangguan Wenyong looked at his daughter's slightly pale face calmly, and a hint of worry could not help but flash in his eyes.This silly girl, really think he doesn't know anything?She didn't say a word about such a big thing as being chased and killed. Did she not trust him as a father?Or the resentment formed in her heart by more than nine years of 'separation' has not completely dissipated?

"Father, what do you want to say to Hui'er? Just let someone come and tell me to go there. Why do you need to go here?"

Shangguan Hui's expression was as cold as ever, and a trace of indifference could be vaguely seen from his brows and eyes.

Shangguan Wenyong couldn't help sighing, after all, he was at fault first, and Hui'er should complain about him.It was he who buried this child's beautiful childhood, let her grow up in the abandoned yard, and suffered so much...

But Hui'er, do you know how much compulsion is hidden in doing this for your father?
